Conan's All-Member Force Enhancement Plan

Chapter 508: The Tragedy of Information Gap (2 chapters in 1)

As the sky gradually darkened, at the home of the village chief, the police were troubled by the recent wounding incident.

They followed the trail and chased after him, but the murderer was so good at evading that they missed him every time. This had happened three times already.

The leading policeman heard from the villagers that Kudo Shinichi had also come here the day before, but that Kudo Shinichi seemed to have encountered an accident and lost his memory.

He originally wanted to seek help from this famous detective. Reasoning is a kind of ability. Maybe it will not disappear due to amnesia?

But he found that he couldn't find the person. This "amnesiac Kudo Shinichi" had disappeared since morning. The last person who witnessed the "amnesiac Kudo Shinichi" said that he had come to the former village chief's house.

Subsequent investigations revealed that the person who called Kawachi Fukasato to come to the home of the village chief of Hihara and the person who called the police had a hoarse voice and claimed to be Kudo Shinichi.

As for the ambulance, they called it together before the police went out. The man who claimed to be Kudo Shinichi did not say that the deceased had been found. He only said that a case would soon occur at the home of the village chief Higashioho Village, Higashihara, and asked the police to go there quickly.

Since it was a case that hadn't happened yet, maybe the victim could still be saved? Juao got on the ambulance with the intention of saving the victim in time, but he didn't expect it to be used.

But, huh?

The leading policeman had some bad thoughts.

Could this murderer be...

"Inspector, there's a man outside who calls himself Kudo Shinichi."

"What?" The leading policeman was stunned, and then immediately reacted: "Let him in quickly."

Kudo Shinichi, dressed in a black feather robe, walked into the crime scene confidently and calmly, and nodded slightly to the leading police officer: "Long time no see, Inspector."

The leading police officer looked at Kudo Shinichi's strange outfit and frowned in confusion: "Kudo-san, what are you doing?"

Moreover, his voice wasn't hoarse, but the villagers clearly said that the "amnesiac Kudo Shinichi" seemed to have a broken voice.

Kudo Shinichi smiled slightly: "I know you have a lot of doubts, but it doesn't matter, let me help you answer them one by one."

The leading policeman said seriously, "Okay, you tell me first, Kudo."

Kudo Shinichi smiled and said, "First of all, the murderer of this murder case. I believe the inspector has already known that a person who looked very similar to me came here yesterday and claimed to have lost his memory. That person called in my name and made an appointment with Kawachi Fukasato to come here. He also called the police and an ambulance."

The leading police officer was confused: "Like you? Claiming to have lost your memory? Impersonating? Kudo, what do you mean?"

Kudo Shinichi nodded: "That's right, the person who was rescued from the lake by the villagers yesterday was not me. It was someone who deliberately wanted to impersonate me. And the one who stabbed Miss Kawachi Fukasato was the guy who impersonated me."

The leading police officer frowned and asked, "Do you have any evidence to prove what I said?"

"boom"

"Here is the evidence." Wu Meiying threw a human-shaped package wrapped tightly in linen, with no visible contents, on the floor: "This is the murderer I caught."

The leading policeman looked at this scene in surprise, then immediately reacted and asked his men to untie the outer layer of linen.

The man inside, who looked like Kudo Shinichi and was covered in blood, soon appeared.

The police looked at the unconscious person on the ground in shock, then shifted their gaze to Kudo Shinichi who was wearing a black feather robe, and repeated this back and forth several times.

"They look so alike!"

"Exactly the same!"

"But the man on the ground doesn't look as cheerful as the one standing. If we talk about a high school detective, the one standing is more like one."

The leading policeman blinked and looked back and forth between the two men, then turned his gaze to Si Xuanyu and Mao Lilan, who were said to be friends of Kudo Shinichi: "But the villagers said that you had already..."

Si Xuanyu shook his finger: "No, no, no, we never recognized that the so-called amnesiac on the ground was Kudo Shinichi. We just took care of this guy who was in a bad physical and mental state out of humanitarianism."

The leading policeman stammered, "Who is that person on the ground? Why does he look so much like Kudo?"

Kudo Shinichi said solemnly, "The identity of the man on the ground should be Makoto Yada who was reported missing half a year ago. He is also the one who wrote to me and led me here. As for his appearance, he had plastic surgery."

When Shiroyama Suzuma, a police officer from the Higashi-Okusu Village Police Station, heard this, he was surprised and asked, "Makoto Yada?"

When he walked into the house and saw the situation inside, he was even more surprised: "Kudo Shinichi? Wait, why is there another person on the ground? W-what's going on? And the one I just mentioned, Makoto Yada? Where is Makoto? And what about the plastic surgery? What's going on?"

Si Xuanyu pointed at the unconscious person on the ground and said, "It's right here. I say, you guys, why do you have to hide your motives? Now look, this person doesn't understand the situation, turned from a fan to a hater and even stepped back, causing so much trouble."

Kudo Shinichi squinted at Si Xuanyu and said, "Do you know the truth?"

Si Xuanyu shrugged: "Is it difficult? You can figure it out, how can I not know it?"

Kudo Shinichi: ...This guy is really narcissistic!

Si Xuanyu turned his head and gave Wu Meiying a wink, asking her to wake up the person on the ground.

The truth of what happened back then is about to be told, how can this person not listen?

Wu Meiying stepped forward, picked up the person on the ground, and then strangled him to wake him up.

"The amnesiac Kudo Shinichi", no, Yada Makoto, was awakened by the pain, slowly opened his eyes, and saw Kudo Shinichi wearing a black feather robe at a glance.

Makoto Yada immediately woke up and pounced on Kudo Shinichi with his teeth and claws, but after struggling for a long time, he was unable to escape from Takemiying's palm.

Shiroyama Shuma hurried over and grabbed Makoto Yada: "Makoto? Are you really Makoto? Why are you..."

Makoto Yada turned his head suddenly. Was his identity exposed?

He instinctively wanted to retort: ​​"I don't know what you are talking about."

Kudo Shinichi said, "Yada Makoto, you have been living in a mountain cabin recently, right? All the mirrors in that room are broken. Is it because you can't accept that you have the face of a stupid high school detective like me?"

Makoto Yada's pupils shrank slightly, and Kudo Shinichi continued, "You've had plastic surgery to look like someone else, and you've spent almost all of the Hihara family's inheritance, right? You called Kawachi Fukasato to come over because what she said yesterday made you mistakenly believe that she discovered the secret of your plastic surgery, right?

In order to achieve your goal of destroying me, you called the police car in advance, hoping that Kudo Shinichi would be caught in the act of wounding someone, right?"

Makoto Yada stared at Kudo Shinichi for a while, and suddenly smiled bitterly: "Kudo Shinichi, you are really amazing, you can deduce everything. Why did you make such a deduction a year ago?!

It was clearly a robbery case where the murderer killed the village chief and Ms. Zhongzi and stole valuables, but it was deduced that the village chief forced Ms. Zhongzi to commit suicide together! Why? ! Why did you have to be so wrong about that case? ! "

Makoto Yada's face was full of sadness and anger, and he yelled hysterically at Shinichi Kudo.

Kudo Shinichi frowned slightly and looked directly into Yada Makoto's eyes with a deep expression.

Si Xuanyu rolled his eyes and said, "Look, this is the tragedy caused by information asymmetry. So why do you want to hide your true motives? You guys are surprisingly empathetic to your same sex in terms of reproductive worship, huh?"

Kudo Shinichi crossed his arms in displeasure: "Si Xuanyu! What nonsense are you talking about again? Do you understand that the dead are the greatest? I really don't want to talk to a cold-blooded freak like you with a bad personality."

Si Xuanyu sneered, "If you have the ability, then don't cause trouble. Look at what you have done. Have you gotten other people's consent for your so-called kindness? Who likes to be kept in the dark? You are just self-righteous and moved yourself."

Kudo Shinichi opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Yada Makoto: "What do you mean? What information gap?"

Si Xuanyu shook his head speechlessly: "You are such a person, you have the energy to have plastic surgery, but you don't have the time to spend more time to find out the specific details of that year?

Think about it, if the motive for the crime is really wrong, as you said, then wouldn't the police reopen the case? Or why don't you ask the police again? If you go a few more times and show your determination, there's no way you can't get the answer. You have to do this, now you've lost your face, your money, and you have to go to jail."

After hearing what Si Xuanyu said, Makoto Ueda became even more agitated. "Damn it! What do you mean? Explain it clearly! Explain it clearly!"

Kudo Shinichi stood between Si Xuanyu and Yada Makoto, blocking their line of sight. Facing Yada Makoto, he said solemnly, "There was nothing wrong with my reasoning back then, and there is evidence. The police can prove it. It was the village chief Nihara who committed suicide after killing Ms. Zhongzi. But the specific motive was not cancer, but..."

Makoto Yada tried to pounce on Shinichi Kudo: "You are lying! The murderer's weapon and shoes, as well as Ms. Zhongzi's jewelry and the Niou statue are all missing. Didn't the murderer take them and run away?"

The policeman answered, "Those things are in the lake."

Makoto Yada was puzzled: "What?"

The police explained the details of that year: "After killing Ms. Zhongzi, the village chief Nihara tied up the murder weapon, jewelry and the Nio statue and threw them into the lake."

Makoto Yada questioned, "What nonsense are you talking about? The house of the village chief is at least 30 meters away from the lake. How could he throw something into the lake without leaving any shoe prints?!"

Si Xuanyu said with a click of his tongue: "You are the adopted son of this family. Don't you know what your adopted father, the village chief Riyuan, is good at?"

Makoto Yada was stunned. What is the Hihara village chief good at?

Kudo Shinichi patiently explained: "Not only the murder weapon and jewelry are missing from this room, but also the medal ribbon and the ring for the ring. Master Dashu said that his father was very good at playing the ring toss and could get 100 points.

For the ring-tossing activity, you need to toss 10 rings to get 100 points, but now there are only 9 left.

Those medals were from the hammer throw. The village chief of Hihara packed the murder weapon, jewelry, and the statue of Nio together as a weight, used the medal ribbon as a chain, and the ring as the hammer handle, and threw everything from the balcony into the lake using the hammer throw technique.

The reason why only one Nio statue was used was because they were afraid that two statues together would be too heavy and would not be able to be thrown into the lake. "

Makoto Yada didn't want to believe it. He shook his head frantically: "How is it possible? There is also the effect of wind resistance. How could something be thrown into the lake?"

The leading police officer stepped forward and said, "It was indeed thrown into the lake. We fished out the murder weapon, jewelry, ribbon rings, and other things from the lake. We also collected Ms. Zhong Zi's blood and the fingerprints of the village chief Riyuan on the dagger in the bag. The case was definitely committed by the village chief Riyuan.

Maybe he didn't want his son Dashu to feel embarrassed knowing the truth, or maybe he wanted to preserve his good reputation throughout his life. In short, it was all because the village chief Hihara deliberately covered up the murder case as robbery and murder by deliberately creating confusion and not wanting to be charged with murder after his death."

Makoto Yada was unwilling to believe it. He shook his head violently and took a few steps back: "No! Impossible! You are talking nonsense! How could such a good village chief, such a cheerful, generous and respected village chief, kill his wife and then commit suicide?

Moreover, the village chief’s tumor is benign. His motivation for giving up on himself after being told he had cancer is simply nonsense!”

Kudo Shinichi sighed and had to tell the truth: "In fact, after I was told that I had cancer, another thing was exposed. The village chief's blood type test result was AB type. Ms. Zhongzi and Master Dashu's blood types are both O type, and a child born from an AB type and an O type cannot have an O type blood type."

Upon hearing this, Makoto Yada's pupils trembled: "Stop talking nonsense! How could Dashu not be the village chief's biological son?"

Makoto Yada wanted to say that Kudo Shinichi was slandering him intentionally and to excuse his own wrong reasoning, but when he looked into Kudo Shinichi's eyes, he suddenly became deflated.

Chengshan Shuma sighed: "This is the ulterior motive."

The leading police officer also said helplessly: "So our motivation for announcing this is that we were told we had cancer."

Makoto Yada was trembling uncontrollably. "But why didn't you tell me about this? After all, I am also a member of this family!"

Shiroyama Kazuma said, "I told you before. Kudo asked me to tell you. He said that this matter should not be known to outsiders, but he must make it clear to you, Makoto."

Makoto Yada approached Shiroyama Shuma step by step in disbelief. He asked eagerly and timidly: "When... where... what did you tell me?"

Shiroyama Kazuma said, "It was right here on the night that Kudo finished his investigation."

Unable to accept it, Yada Makoto leaned back.

Shiroyama Kazuma continued, "But now that I think about it, the truth about the suicide of the village chief Hihara after the murder that I explained to you may have been too much of a blow to you. You probably went blank and didn't hear anything after that."

Makoto Yada's body swayed from side to side a few times, and he staggered back a few steps, seeming to be about to fall down: "How could this happen? How could this happen? Then why did I change my face?!"

Kneeling, crying, regretting.

The trilogy is complete.
