Conan’s Corpse Picker

"She did not commit suicide." Jiang Xia pointed to the body hanging in the air. "The hanging position is too high and there is no stepping stone. Whether it was someone else who hung her up, or there were enthusiastic people who helped her to stand on her tiptoes after she committed suicide. Take it away, there will be a second person at the scene."

When the little black-faced boy heard this, his legs became even weaker: "Stop talking!" Although suicide is scary, isn't homicide even scarier? He didn't know if ghosts could hurt people, but humans could definitely kill people anyway.

On the other side, Inozuka Taro saw that Jiang Xia always glanced at him while talking, and suddenly felt that there was something in this kid's words: "You don't want to say that we took away the stepping stone, do you?"

Jiang Xia said regretfully: "That's not true." It's just that Inozuka Taro's wide and square chin looks a bit like vodka, which gives people the illusion that he will soon start selling vanilla ice cream... so Jiang Xia's eyes are always on I couldn't help but drift towards this person.

Inozuka Taro felt very uncomfortable being stared at by him. He always felt that he was provoking, but there was no evidence.

But after making such a sound, Jiang Xia finally looked away from him.

The famous detective began to look down at the muddy footprints on the ground.

"Exactly the same." A voice floated from the side.

Toda Kiwako looked up at her former school girl. After being extremely frightened, her whole body fell into a sluggish calm. She said calmly: "The method of killing is exactly the same as in the play - the first one in The Phantom of the Opera. The deceased was a rival of the heroine. She was smashed to death with a chandelier in the theater by the 'Phantom' who loved the heroine deeply. The second deceased was an innocent prop master who was hanged because he saw the 'Phantom'. Silenced on stage.”

When Mao Lilan heard what she said, she suddenly remembered something and got goosebumps again: "So I wasn't actually dreaming last night, but someone really invaded Sister Yongmei's room, dragged her out and hanged her. ?!”

"No, it's more like she walked out on her own." Jiang Xia pointed to the ground. There is a series of footprints on the ground leading from the first floor window to the tree:

"The land is very soft, and the footprints left are relatively clear. Judging from the size and general shape of the shoes, this footprint was left by the deceased himself."

Conan has always had strong hands-on skills. He didn't know when he had arrived under the tree, picked up a shoe that Eimi Konda had dropped, and placed it in the nearest footprint pit.

Sure enough, as Jiang Xia said just now, the size and shape are exactly the same.

"This depth doesn't look like it was caused by someone wearing Konda Eimi's shoes and carrying her across." Jiang Xia compared the footprints and said, "It should only be the weight of one person."

This sentence made everyone stunned for a moment.

They looked down and found that there was only a single set of footprints under the tree. They immediately understood what the detective meant: "You mean she walked over by herself and then hung herself to the tree without any stepping stones?"

This sounds impossible to accomplish, so there seems to be only one truth: "There is really a 'phantom' on the island? And he doesn't leave footprints on the mud? Is he a ghost?!"

Jiang Xia shook his head and said regretfully: "Ghosts can't do this. The murderer should have used certain methods to achieve this effect."

Belmode's ears twitched and she couldn't help but glance at him. The phrase "ghosts can't do such a thing" is used by normal people as a synonym for "there are no ghosts in the world", but when used here by Uzo, it always feels weird...

Belmode: "..." It seems that when looking for a psychiatrist, they have to focus on solving the problem of "Uzo hopes that there are ghosts in the world." Well, first of all, you have to find a psychiatrist with excellent skills, good physique, and excellent life-saving skills.

Next to her, Sonoko Suzuki was also frightened by these two strange murders. She looked at Kiwako Toda and asked alertly: "According to the story, what is the next trick?"

Toda Kiwako touched the rainwater that splashed on her body, her voice was as pale as a ghost: "It seemed like she was dragged into the sewer, and then..."

When Mao Lilan thought of that scene, the hairs all over her body stood up. She quickly interrupted: "Then everyone should hide in the sewers. It should be safe!"

Matsuzaki Masahiko seemed to be affected by his fiancée's emotions and became far less optimistic. He also turned pale: "Is this really the case? Yomi walked to the tree by herself and was hung up. If the 'Phantom' can control People's hearts, let's go near the sewers..."

Conan patted the dirt on his hands and raised his head to look at him speechlessly: "No, even a master of hypnosis can't do this while we are alert - you are all college students, why? I don’t believe in science.”

Belmode also pushed up the glasses on the bridge of her nose and looked at Conan speechlessly: "..." She didn't know whether the Phantom could control people's hearts. But there is a guy who can do something similar... Shinichi hasn't discovered this yet. He really doesn't know whether to be happy that he doesn't have to be silenced, or worried that he has been kept in the dark and finally walked towards him unconsciously. Tragic ending.

No matter what, a group of people gathered here, but they couldn't surround the murderer.

Jiang Xia took a few photos of the scene like a good helper to the police, then untied the rope from the tree trunk with the others, put down the body, covered it with a waterproof tablecloth as a sign of respect, and returned to the restaurant.

…

Throughout the whole day, everyone was in a state of having little appetite but being very hungry, and finally ate something casually.

Before long, it was evening.

Maybe because they were really vigilant enough, it turned out to be a safe day during the day and nothing happened.

But at night, when it gets dark, everything comes to life and the conspiracy begins to brew.

Kurosawa Kazuma and Inozuka Taro got together.

Compared with a group of students, the two outlaw gangsters were a little nervous at first due to the horror movie-like atmosphere, but after they calmed down, they immediately didn't take the small-time murderer to heart.

——What happened to the serial killer? He dared to be so arrogant after just two people were killed. In comparison, they had already killed two figures. When a serial killer saw him, he should give them a thumbs up.

Therefore, the two people's attention quickly turned to another matter.

Taro Inozuka thought of Jiang Xia's eyes and always had a bad premonition: "There is obviously no evidence yet, but that kid always stares at me meaningfully. He can't really doubt me."

Kurosawa Kazuma had also noticed Jiang Xia's little tricks a long time ago. He frowned and thought: "I heard that the detectives in Tokyo have very good noses. Could it be that he really smelled the illegal smell on us?"
