"Didn't Takeru escape from the utility room in the second case?" asked Mariko Rakumoto.

Rakumoto Akiyo agreed: "Yes, Takeru is the most suspicious!"

Yuya shook his head: "Have you forgotten that the utility room was locked from the outside, how could Mr. Takeru escape from it by himself?"

"Then, who let him out?" Rakumoto Akiyo asked. She wanted to ask if it was Rakumoto Natsue who did it, but she thought that she and Mao Lilan were on the deck at the time and didn't have the time to do it.

Hattori Heiji said: "Of course it's the murderer."

"Murderer?" Everyone was puzzled, why did they do this?

Hattori Heiji crossed his arms and said slowly: "The murderer finally made Mr. Wu the biggest suspect. If he was found locked in the utility room and Mr. Kameo was killed, wouldn't that prove that he was not the murderer?"

"So, he opened the lock of the utility room and let Mr. Wu escape. In this way, the murderer can naturally frame him for both cases."

Rakumoto Mariko still didn't believe it. She asked loudly: "If it wasn't Takeru who killed him, why did he run away? If that's not guilty, what is it?!"

Rakumoto Akiyo echoed: "That's right, he is still missing!"

Yuya's eyes fell on the wardrobe and said slowly: "Let Mr. Wu explain this matter himself."

"What?!" Everyone's face changed suddenly. Rakumoto Takeshi is here?

Following Yuya's gaze, everyone's eyes fell on the wardrobe.

After a while, the closet door was slowly pushed open, and the pale-faced Takeshi Rakumoto walked out.

"Awu!" Rakumoto Natsue was pleasantly surprised and was about to go over.

Yuya interrupted her at the right time: "Then, Mr. Wu, please explain how you escaped from the utility room."

Rakumoto Takeshi's face changed for a while, and after a moment he said: "I was locked in the utility room at the time, and suddenly I heard someone's footsteps outside, and I thought it was Natsue who came to see me..."

Rakumoto Natsue opened his mouth, but couldn't say a word.

"... I rushed to the door and shouted Xia Jiang's name, but found that the door was not locked, so I rushed out, but I didn't see anyone outside."

"I wanted to go to Xia Jiang to explain, but when I passed the deck, I saw my uncle being killed. You all suspected that I did it. I thought that there was no way to clear my suspicion, so I hid."

"Then I have been hiding in this closet until now..."

After saying this, Takeshi Omoto looked at Yuya with expectant eyes. He vaguely guessed that now is the time to clear his suspicion.

And this hope rests on Yuya and Hattori Heiji.

Hatamoto Shoji was a little puzzled: "If what Takeshi said is true, then who attacked Ichiro in the third case?"

Mariko Omoto shouted excitedly: "That's right, who even wanted to kill Ichiro!"

Yuya folded his hands and said slowly: "This third case is the biggest mistake made by the murderer."

"What do you mean?" Everyone was full of question marks, what mistake? Did he just stab the person instead of killing him?

Yuya continued: "The murderer released Mr. Wu from the utility room, and originally wanted to frame Mr. Kameo's death on him, but he didn't expect that people would suspect that there was an accomplice. The murderer panicked and came up with a way to get rid of suspicion, which was to stab Mr. Ichiro in the bathroom."

"Unfortunately, this was the murderer's own act of digging his own grave. In the darkness, Mr. Ichiro couldn't see the murderer at all, but the other party could clearly know Mr. Ichiro's location."

"More importantly, if the murderer really wanted to kill someone, why did he stab the thigh? If he wanted to kill someone, even if he couldn't see where the person was, stabbing the chest or abdomen would obviously have a higher success rate, right?"

"Another most important point is that unlike the previous two cases, the murder weapon was left at the scene this time. Why is that?"

"Why, why?" Everyone asked in a daze.

"That's because the murderer was injured at the time and had no way to take the murder weapon away from the scene!"

Injured? No way to take it away from the scene?

At this point, even the dumbest person could guess the truth, and looked at Ichiro Ryomoto with disbelief.

Youya slowly raised his hand and pointed at the pale man with his head down: "Yes, the real culprit of these three cases is you!"

"Ichiro Ryomoto!"

Boom! It was like a thunderclap. Even if there was some guess in my heart, whenWhen Yuya said that name, the others still felt incredible.

Ichiro Rakumoto usually looked cowardly, who would have thought that he could kill people? And two people!

In the end, he was so cruel that he stabbed his thigh with a knife?

"Using a timer to create the illusion of a power outage is also to give yourself a reason not to reveal the murderer's appearance, so that you can clear yourself from the case."

Yuya and Hattori Heiji crossed their arms and asked in unison: "Mr. Ichiro, do you have anything to refute about our reasoning?"

Conan: ? ? ? No, when did you two get so tacit?

Damn it, it was obviously me first, whether it was knowing each other or solving the case together, but why did it become like this?

Conan, who was unable to make inferences due to his identity, watched Yuya and Heiji Hattori perform the whole time. When the two of them said that sentence at the same time, he suddenly felt that he was betrayed by Yuya...

Ichiro Hamoto trembled all over, his face turned pale, and he lowered his head without saying a word.

"Ichiro?" Seeing her son like this, how could Mariko Hamoto not understand.

But she still held on to the last fluke, slapped the table and questioned Yuya and Heiji Hattori: "You said Ichiro killed someone, where is the evidence, do you have evidence?"

Yuya smiled slightly: "Of course, if..."

"The evidence is here!" Conan suddenly raised a handkerchief on the table, which contained a piece of bread crumbs.

Mariko Hamoto took a look, "Bread crumbs? What kind of evidence is this?"

Conan was about to say something, but was hit on the head by Yuya.

Yuya picked up Conan and threw him to Mao Lilan, cursing: "Adults solve the case, children should not make trouble, go play!"

Damn Conan, he dared to interrupt his spell, which was an insult to him as a detective!

Yuya opened his mouth, feeling that it was not appropriate to finish the sentence now, so he said: "Of course, ordinary bread crumbs will not work, but this bread crumb is different, it is covered with sawdust and charcoal, I think you understand what I mean without me saying it?"

Mariko Hamoto's pupils shrank suddenly, knowing that her son liked to draw, how could she not understand.

On weekdays, she often saw Ichiro Hamoto using bread as an eraser to draw, and no one except her son would have such bread crumbs covered with sawdust and charcoal.

"But, but what about the motive?!" Mariko Hamoto wanted to make a final struggle.

Yuya sighed and said in a heavy tone: "I only found out about it last. When we checked Mr. Ichiro's room, we found this..."

Yuya looked at Hattori Heiji, who understood and took out a stack of drawing paper.

"The answer is in here."

Rakumoto Akiie came over, picked up the drawing paper and flipped through it, and exclaimed in surprise: "All the drawings here are of Xiajiang!"

"Huh?" Rakumoto Xiajiang looked confused.
