In Conan, people have a brain option system

"Mr. Akikawa, I'll go in with you."

At the door of the bathroom, the detective who played the role of a nurse said to Akikawa Sosuke.

"Thank you, I can do it myself."

"Okay, I'll wait for you at the door, just call me if you have anything."

Even though Akikawa Sosuke declined, the detective still didn't show any displeasure on his face.

She really looks like a nurse who cares about patients and has a very good service attitude.

There is a window at the end of the sink in the bathroom, which should be able to get out for a thin adult or a child.

The other side of the window is already in the clouds.

There are basically no pedestrians under the dim dawn, only the chirping of birds indicates that a new day has begun.

Since it was still early, there was no one else in the bathroom.

Akikawa Sosuke came to the sink and looked at the mirror opposite.

Until this time, he finally faced his body after crossing for the first time.

On the other side of the mirror stood a pale, lifeless young man.

He was thinner than most people, with a bandage on his head, a hospital gown, and an IV stand connected to a hose in his hand.

He had just been admitted to the hospital, but he looked like a patient who had lived in the hospital for many years.

"It's even weaker than I thought. This body feels like a dead branch. It will break if you step on it lightly."

But unexpectedly, the young man in the mirror had very regular facial features.

This made Akikawa Sosuke sigh in his heart.

For people with good facial features, even if they have gauze wrapped around their heads and can't see their hair, and their bodies are so weak, their appearance is still pleasing to the eye.

Akikawa Sosuke came to the bathroom, of course, not just to go to the toilet.

Even though there are very few means to obtain intelligence now,

but just by observing himself, he can get some basic information from himself.

Akikawa Sosuke found that not only his cheeks, but also his palms and neck were all unhealthy white.

Even though the skin was often exposed to the outside, it looked paler than the average person. In addition to pathological reasons, there was another possibility——

"He is a stay-at-home person who has no access to sunlight all year round."

Akikawa Sosuke lifted his sleeves and trouser legs and gently pinched the muscles of his arms and legs.

The loose muscles further proved that Akikawa Sosuke's inference was correct.

"The skin is also a little dry and rough, and the area around the eyes is a little dark. It's not staying up late, but more like anemia caused by malnutrition."

"He should still be in school, but he didn't go to school at all."

"He has the ability to take care of himself, but he is seriously malnourished."

"If this situation is a person living alone, it is likely that he has been hit and abandoned himself. If he lives with others, it is overprotection or abuse."

Akikawa Sosuke reached out and touched the hair on the back of his forehead and neck, and made a judgment.

"It's the latter."

The length of his hair is obviously not the length of a NEET (homebody) who stays at home for years and months, so it is obvious that he has been trimming it.

Akikawa Sosuke obviously can't feel the original owner's desire to live, but his hair is being taken care of normally.

If he really cares about his appearance, he won't let his physical condition be so bad.

So it can only be that someone is doing these things for the original owner.

Looking at his lack of exercise and malnutrition in the mirror.

Considering the information revealed by the detective who just helped him in.

The scale in Akikawa Sosuke's mind also tilted towards the direction of "abuse".

"Assuming that the original owner was really abused, the woman who was originally in the same car with him should be the one who lived with the original owner."

"It's a bit bad, the original owner seems to have a sufficient motive to kill..."

Akikawa Sosuke hurriedly unbuttoned the top of the hospital gown and carefully observed his weak body.

But after carefully checking the upper and lower body, Akikawa Sosuke did not find any old scars on his body except for the new bruises that should be caused by this car accident.

"No external injuries do not mean no abuse."

"At the same time, under this situation, the police concluded that the original owner had committed suicide, which means that this was discovered after I was sent to the hospital for examination last night."

In other words, it was some conditions in my body that revealed this.

"Did the examination find that there were some residual ingredients in my body, poison? Sleeping pills?"

"But no matter which one it is, it can't be a sudden impulse. The original owner must have prepared in advance."

"Then the question is, did the original owner commit suicide before the woman died or after she died?"

"Speaking of which, the original owner actually had blue eyes, and the color of his hair was not the traditional black color of Japanese people, but chestnut."

In addition to the beautiful facial features even though he was thin, what also attracted special attention was the protagonist's blue eyes like the night sky.

Just now, when Akikawa Sosuke was checking his body, he noticed that not only his hair, but also the hair on other parts of his body was chestnut-colored.

This means that he was born like this, not because of dyeing.

"Could he be a mixed-blood?"

Just as Akikawa Sosuke continued to check his body, trying to see if there were any other details on him that he had not discovered.

Suddenly, he saw from the reflection in the mirror that the bathroom door was quietly opened.

"Even going to the toilet is monitored, the police are sure that the original owner is suicidal."

My clothes have been changed, so there must be no tools left on my body that can cause injury.

In addition, there is no one else in the bathroom, and there is no risk of hurting others.

Then the police are monitoring me to prevent me from committing suicide again.

"Since the police are monitoring me, it means that the original owner's suicide happened after the woman he lived with died."

"Because only in this case, 'I' will be able to do the same thing again after finding out that I am not dead."

"The original owner was abused for many years, so he chose this day to travel together, preparing to kill the woman and then commit suicide?"

"Isn't this murder? It seems that the police have made the same judgment."

Akikawa Sosuke held his forehead with a headache.

Japan is not a country that can easily sentence people to death.

Even if a criminal is extremely vicious and has killed many people, it is often difficult to be sentenced to death.

However, there is an essential difference in sentencing standards between spur-of-the-moment killing and premeditated killing.

Obviously, the latter is more serious.

Akikawa Sosuke always hopes that he can use some clues to prove that he is not the murderer and reduce suspicion.

But the more he understands the situation, the more he realizes that he is a serious suspect.
