Chapter 1075 Inspector Megure: So Many Detectives
Here, Yuya and Conan were investigating the audience seats.
Conan asked quietly, "Did they do this?"
Yuya looked back at the direction of the stage, thought for a moment and said, "Probably not."
"Vermouth and Bourbon have only been here for a short time. They haven't had time to enter here to kill people and set up the scene."
The victim was hung from the grille above the stage, with no chair or other support under his feet, which directly rules out the possibility of suicide.
Unless he climbed to the top of the fence, put the rope around his neck and jumped down to hang himself.
But it is obviously impossible. Not to mention that this way of dying is too cruel to oneself, even a person who commits suicide would not be so cruel. If he really did this, his body would probably have been separated from his head.
"But," Conan thought for a moment and proposed another possibility, "Perhaps Bourbon was able to get the qualification to watch the rehearsal through Sonoko. He may have anticipated that we would come, so he and Vermouth delayed us outside and sent others over?"
Yuya glanced at him sideways: "If that's the case, is it necessary to go to so much trouble? You seem to think too highly of yourself."
Conan was speechless for a moment, but what Yuya said was not wrong.
Although he has always regarded the organization as an enemy, the organization does not necessarily take him seriously.
After all, when it comes to the organization, you have to be careful in everything you do, but the organization doesn't have to do the same.
Didn’t you see that when they were at the aquarium, Gin drove a helicopter to bomb the Ferris wheel?
Suddenly thinking of this, Conan couldn't help asking: "Were you the one who flew a helicopter to ambush Gin and his friends at the aquarium that day?"
Conan had already asked this question once, and You found an excuse to get away with it.
At this time he asked again, You also rolled his eyes: "Ah, yes, yes, it's me. Don't ask me how I can fly a helicopter, just ask that your dad taught me in Hawaii."
Conan lowered his dead eyes. Yuya had indeed been to Hawaii with him, and he had learned a lot of things there, including flying a plane. Moreover, Yuya was much better than himself and could learn those things as soon as he got started.
Conan even doubted whether he could do it from the beginning.
But now that he said this, he began to doubt himself - could he have guessed wrong?
At this moment, Youya suddenly noticed a thin kite string under his feet, extending from the direction of the stage all the way to the back of the audience seats.
He walked along the kite string and found a baseball behind a row of seats, with the end of the kite string tied to the baseball.
Conan followed and was puzzled by the scene: "Why is there a baseball here?"
"have no idea···"
Yuya pondered for a moment and noticed someone was looking at him. He looked up and found that it was Inspector Megure who had arrived with his men.
At this moment, he was looking at him with a dark gaze, as if to say: So many detectives? How many people died this time?
Yuya:?
···
Inspector Megure sighed and asked Takagi Wataru: "Well, please explain the situation in general."
Takagi Wataru responded, took out the manual and read out the recorded contents.
"The deceased's name is Botulidao, 39 years old. He was originally scheduled to hold a concert here tomorrow and rehearse here tonight, but he didn't expect..."
"The body was discovered by two security guards who were in charge of checking the fire. When they opened the door of the dance hall, they found the victim hanging on the stage."
"Well," Inspector Megure nodded slightly and looked at the forensic officer who was examining the body, "What's the estimated time of death?"
The forensic officer replied: "Judging from the dilation of the pupils and the stiffness of the body, the body should have been dead for 1 to 2 hours."
Takagi continued: "According to the agent, the victim was alone in this dance hall writing lyrics two hours ago, and no one else came in during this period."
Inspector Megure pondered and said, "So, the murderer sneaked into the dance hall during this period and hanged the victim to death?"
He looked up and said, "From this perspective, the murderer must have passed the rope through the top of the fence and then used a machine that moves the stage scenery to hang the person up, right?"
"I don't think that's the case." Amuro Toru walked over.
"To move the set, special equipment was needed, and the room where the equipment was kept was locked, and the staff member who had the key was out for dinner at that time."
Takagi Wataru was very surprised: "So, the murderer didn't use a machine to hang the man?"
At this time, Okiya Subaru also came over: "Yes, the murderer may be more than one person."
He pinched his chin and analyzed, "If there is no pulley installed on the iron frame at the top of the fence, it is almost impossible for one person to lift the body to such a height."
To hang a person up, from a mechanical point of view, the force required is at least the person's weight multiplied by gravity. Taking into account the friction of the rope and various factors, the force required is much greater than this value.
The amount of strength required to lift a person up is different from the amount of strength required to hang a person with a rope.
In other words, if the murderer was alone, he must be very strong and could exert force beyond the weight of the deceased.
This is impossible for ordinary people.
Amuro Toru said, "What is worrying is the folding chairs, ropes and tool boxes placed on the edge of the stage."
Subaru Okiya: "And the rope that was hanging the body, there was a strange little hole near the knot at the end that extended to the audience."
Conan suddenly popped up: "Brother Yuya and I found a baseball tied to a kite string in the audience."
Seeing Conan, Takagi Wataru exclaimed: "Conan, you are here too?" Turning around, he saw, "Yuya-kun is here too?"
At that time, Yuya and Conan were investigating the audience seats, so Takagi Shigeru did not see them.
However, when he thought of Miyano Shiho, Mori Ran and Suzuki Sonoko whom he saw when he first arrived, he felt relieved.
Inspector Megure glanced at the detectives who were talking freely, and covered his forehead with a headache: "Anyway, let's conduct a routine questioning of the staff here."
Takagi Wataru responded.
Yuya and the others also walked out together, intending to listen in and ask questions to see if there were any clues.
Watching the detectives leave, Inspector Megure sighed and said dimly, "Come to think of it, there are always detectives taking turns at every crime scene."
There are not only old people, but also young people, both men and women, locals and outsiders.
No wonder Inspector Megure made such a comment.
Takagi Shigeru smiled in agreement and said, "Yes, and the attendance rate of several of them is very high. It seems that Conan is about to win the full attendance award, right?"
"No, compared to Conan, it seems that Yuya-kun appears more often?"
"Ah!"
As soon as he reached the door, You sneezed. He looked around suspiciously, feeling that someone was saying bad things about him behind his back.
