Conan’s Corpse Picker

Jiang Xia raised his head and saw the silent gaze of Inspector Otaki.

He glanced at the murderous aura of the large balls of ice cream in the ghosts' arms and the murderous aura of the large pile of teething sticks on the ground next to them, and was quite satisfied with today's harvest.

Seeing that the murderous aura on Vodka was urgently closed as he appeared. Realizing that he could not squeeze out more, Jiang Xia had to speak regretfully:

"The diameter of this building is 20 meters, and the edge of the building is about 10 meters away from the pine tree with the gun tied to it, and the fishing line connected to the sniper rifle..."

The young police officer next to him met his gaze and quickly reported his previous measurement results: "A little more than 10 meters."

Jiang Xia nodded, and then said: "The fishing line hanging down the cliff is just a trick used by the murderer to confuse the direction of the investigation. But unfortunately, there are some loopholes in his plan - the gun and the mud on the fishing line are the flaws he had to reveal."

Inspector Otaki has been Staying with Hattori Heiji, I understood what this high school detective meant: "In other words, the murderer did not stand at the bottom of the cliff to pull the fishing line and pull the trigger, but fired the bullet in another way?"

"That's right." Jiang Xia said, "The murderer knew the deceased's schedule and the exact location where he watched TV. So a week ago, he stole the deceased's gun, and after coming here today, he fixed the gun on the pine tree and aimed it at the corresponding angle.

"Then he tied a lead weight to one end of the fishing line and let the fishing line pass through the trigger of the gun, so that the work on the tree was all ready. "

"When the dinner started, the murderer found an excuse to leave the table. He took out a stack of newspapers prepared in advance, a specific length of fishing line, and the T-shaped iron hook.

"The murderer first rolled the newspaper into a tube, connected the ends together, and formed a long enough paper pole. Then he pasted a piece of double-sided tape on the top of the paper pole."

"Ah!" A young police officer suddenly remembered something, and he took out an evidence bag, "We did find a few thin white plastic tapes in the yard... It turned out that this was the residue of double-sided tape. I was wondering why it looked familiar."

Jiang Xia nodded, and then said: "After doing this, the murderer tied the other end of the fishing line into a rope loop and stuck the T-shaped iron hook at the bottom of the rope loop. Then he used the newspaper pole with double-sided tape to stick to the iron hook, raised it, and hung the rope loop next to the iron hook on the decorative long pole on the second floor of the building."

"Decorative long pole..." A group of people looked up blankly and searched in the sky. Soon, their eyes were fixed.

-There was indeed an "L"-shaped iron pole on the slowly rotating building on the second floor. It was rotating with the building at a speed that ordinary people could not detect.

Jiang Xia said: "In this way, the automatic shooting killing mechanism is complete - as the 'L'-shaped iron rod rotates, the fishing line gradually tightens, and the conical lead weight at the other end is pulled higher and higher until it gets stuck in the trigger."

"In other words, what actually pulled the trigger was not the 'T'-shaped iron hook as we imagined before, but the lead weight at the other end?" Inspector Otaki suddenly realized, "Who is so cunning!"

Jiang Xia: "After the shooting, the iron rod on the second floor continued to rotate, and the fishing line loop hanging on it was pulled by the other end, gradually slipped off and fell to the ground - in order to ensure that it could slide off, the murderer also used the long newspaper rod in advance to apply oil on the 'L'-shaped iron rod for lubrication."

"The whole process does not take too much time, and the one who did this should be the deceased's apprentice, Mr. Yusen."

"?!"

Everyone turned back and looked at the silent and introverted little apprentice.

The little apprentice looked ugly and instinctively clenched his fists.

Jiang Xia looked at him: "At 7:25, you said you were going to get some coal and left the party. After coming to the backyard alone, you took advantage of this time to roll up the newspapers, hang the hooks, and then remove the paper tubes, wrap the coal with them, and return to the crowd.

"You calculated the angle and time of the building's rotation in advance, which means that although we heard the gunshots at 7:35, the murderer actually activated the mechanism 10 minutes ago - during that time period, you were the only one absent."

Inspector Otaki listened with a confused look, and when he heard this, he immediately grasped the key point: "Where are those newspapers? Go find them quickly, they are important evidence! "

The young police officers nodded and rushed to the barbecue venue. Fortunately, it was a bit strange to throw a thick stack of newspapers into the oven in front of everyone. The newspapers were not burned in time and were just stuffed into an inconspicuous corner.

Seeing that the plan was exposed, the young apprentice took a deep breath and finally spoke.

He gritted his teeth and said aggrievedly and angrily: "You don't know the true face of Jinze Liuyilang at all. That bastard has a good reputation outside and always maintains the appearance of a successful person, but in fact, he is just a shameless thief with a sanctimonious appearance!"

The eldest apprentice was a little confused when he heard his master being scolded: "How can you say that? The teacher's temper is a bit bad, but when has he ever stolen anything?"

The error-free version is reading! 6=9+Shu_Bar first published this novel.

"Of course you haven't been stolen!" The young apprentice snorted coldly, "You have never had any outstanding original works, and he can't steal them even if he wants to. But my work was taken away by him! ——The work he used to participate in the Shanghai Modern Art Museum International Design Competition was designed by me! "

He said painfully: "It was not until the award was announced that I found out that the building I designed won the award, but my name was not mentioned on it at all.

"I went to ask the teacher, but he said he didn't understand what I was talking about and asked me to show the evidence that I designed it.

"But what evidence can I have? Even if I really find evidence, who will believe it? I can only say that I respect him and admire his talent very much, and hope to awaken his conscience...but it's useless.

"The guy heard that I had no evidence, but became more arrogant.

"He gave me a smug "advice", saying that I didn't understand the situation at all-he said that the reason why the design could attract worldwide attention was because it was published in the name of him, Kanazawa Ryuichiro, and if it was published by me, the work would become worthless.

"Not only did he steal my treasure, but he also belittled my long-term hard work...Since then, I swore a poisonous oath! I will never allow him to attend that award ceremony! "

Inspector Otaki sighed a little, but it was rare for the criminal to cooperate so well, so he immediately asked: "So, the stalker that Mr. Kanazawa mentioned before his death who sent him secretly taken photos every day was you, too?"
