Brother Ogata became angry: "...you!"

Jiang Xia did not stop their brothers' quarrel, but turned to talk about another thing: "As for the old man Yuanzi and the others saw passing silently through the corridor just now...in fact, he was not a human being."

Mao Lilan: "?!"

Jiang Xia: "It's a piece of paper."

Mao Lilan, who was about to jump up in fright: "...Wha, what?"

Jiang Xia opened the door to the room and pointed to the corridor outside: "Just find a piece of black paper, cut the paper into corresponding human shapes, and stick it on the glass window of the corridor.

"Remember the 'security breach' that the police just said? - In fact, the unlocked door in the backyard was not blown open by the wind, but someone pushed it open intentionally.

"The glass with the black human-shaped paper on it faces the open back door. In this way, as long as there is a car passing by outside the courtyard, the swaying car headlights will illuminate the glass window in the corridor, and then the corresponding shadow will be projected on the guest room. On the paper door.

"As the headlights move, the shadow will also move at high speed from right to left - so the 'old man' you see is clearly running on the wooden floor at high speed, but he didn't leave any sound."

Mao Lilan slammed his fist on his palm, and then he remembered it belatedly: "When you said that, I seemed to remember it - I did vaguely hear the sound of the engine at that time!"

"So that's what it is. What a clever idea." The first person to cheer was Brother Ogata. After saying that, the wounded man with gauze on his head turned to look at his brother and said in a strange tone, "I never see you being so smart. , you disguise yourself well."

"Why did you think it was me!" Ogata's brother was speechless for a while, "When you were knocked unconscious tonight, I wasn't even in that room!"

Jiang Xia: "Speaking of this, if you want to knock Mr. Ogata unconscious, you don't have to be in the room where he is - as long as you use the structure of this house and set up a special mechanism, you can make the heavy guqin fall from the air. .

"The person who set up the mechanism did not intend to murder. Unfortunately, someone happened to sneak into the room where the guqin was placed, and was unfortunately hit on the spot."

Next to him, a lawyer who was listening silently rubbed his ears: "..." Such words as "unfortunate", "just right", "unlucky"... With Uzo next to him, hearing these words gives people a headache.

When brother Ogata, who was having a physical headache, heard this, he also started to have a mental headache. He looked embarrassed: "What do you mean by being sneaky! I am walking around in my own house, do I have to report it to you?"

Jiang Xia: "Today Miss Haruna brought the music box she received from Mr. Qiu Wu. During dinner, I heard that the music in the music box was "Come, Spring", and you immediately thought of playing this music often. grandma.

"You guess that the set of hand-carved stamps worth 200 million may be hidden in the guqin that your grandma used to use during her lifetime, so at night, you would go to that room to search for the guqin, looking for clues."

Everyone couldn't help but look at Brother Ogata: No need to say anything, just from his expression, it can be seen that what Jiang Xia said is true.

"Xiao Menu, since you have clues, why don't you tell us." Mr. Ogata sighed, "If we can find the stamps, you will definitely be involved. Why bother looking for them in the dark in the middle of the night - you can't see anything? It would be strange to find clues.”

Brother Ogata muttered: "Do you think I don't want to turn on the light? - I don't know if it was the old man's curse. After entering the house, I searched for a long time and couldn't find the light cord. I had to look for the guqin in the dark, but there was no When he found it, he was suddenly beaten by Zhiro. "

Brother Ogata's back sank: "...I have told you so many times, I am not the one who beats you!"

Jiang Xia nodded: "And what makes you unable to touch the light rope is not a curse from ghosts - the light rope disappears because the person who set up the mechanism pulled it close to the ceiling. After you enter the house, you will be in the original position." A high degree of exploration will, of course, lead to nothing.”

The detective seemed to understand the scene at that time better than the person involved: "The guqin should have been placed on the ground originally, so when you were looking for it in the dark, you knelt down and sat on the ground.

"But what you don't know is that the guqin you are looking for has been hung on the ceiling directly above the room with tough silk.

"At this time, someone released the mechanism, and with the sound of the strings and silk being broken, the guqin was falling. You heard the movement and looked up, and then you were slapped on the forehead by the guqin - if you were standing before , The height difference is not that big, the injury may not be too serious, but because you were kneeling at the time, the guqin would fall and knock you out. "

Brother Ogata: "..."

As the detective reviewed the scene, the scene of being smashed suddenly became clear in his mind. He only felt that his head was buzzing again, and his head became more painful.

Brother Ogata pressed his forehead and calmed down: "But I didn't feel anyone around me at the time... How does this wicked mechanism operate?"

This time, Jiang Xia seemed to be more skilled than the person who designed the mechanism: "Find a piece of silk of sufficient length, fold it, put the closed end on the light cable, and then wrap the other end around the string, so that I can temporarily put the guqin on top of the cabinet aside.

"Then the person who designed the mechanism grabbed the silk and passed it through the gap in the door frame, passing through several rooms, and finally connected it to the guest room where Miss Haruna was staying. Then he tied a knot in the silk and fixed this end with a hairpin.

"Finally, the silk was tightened and the guqin was moved from the top of the cabinet to mid-air, and the mechanism was completed."

Suzuki Sonoko suddenly realized: "So that's it! "…Although I didn't understand it at all, what Jiang Xia said must be right!

Curaçao looked left and right, and then found disappointedly that the expressions of other people were either admiration or nervous...but there was no suspicion that she wanted to see.

An organizational cadre fell into silence: "…"Why are everyone admiring Wu Zuo's reasoning ability, and no one has discovered that this guy is actually the culprit of everything? - Listen to his description, how can this be like reasoning, this is a complete retelling from God's perspective... Can't you stupid listeners be a little suspicious?

Unfortunately, no one raised any objections.

So the undisguised "reasoning" continued, and Jiang Xia looked at the few people in the Ogata family: "In this way, as long as the door of the guest room is slightly opened, the guqin will lose the tension of the silk, fall naturally, and make a huge noise. "

"In other words, from the ghost shadow passing through the corridor to the guqin falling out of thin air, these "ghostly" things are actually completely unrelated to ghosts, but are man-made-is that right, Mrs. Ogata. "
