Vol 20 Chapter 157: Bumpy road

"Uncle, the game is over." Xie Chen hid at the door and said in Hattori Heiji's voice. He is good at disguising, not only his voice, but his tone is exactly the same.

"what?"

Xie Chen slowly said: "I already know who the murderer is, this time I can't go wrong."

Everyone's eyes focused on Hattori Heiji who was sitting on the door.

"Yes, in this hotel, you are the one who caused these three incidents!" Xie Chen quietly raised Hattori Heiji's arm, pointed forward, and put it down again.

"Is it me?" Mouri Kogoro asked in surprise.

"It's not you." Xie Chen said slowly: "I'm talking about Mr. Huye who is sweating cold behind the uncle."

As soon as this remark came out, everyone turned their eyes to the Hu Yeyan who was standing at the end.

"Wait a moment..." Hu Yeyan hurriedly waved his hand: "I stayed here for a few hours before the innkeeper drove the car, didn't I? And, when Ling Zi was burned to death, I followed Everyone together."

"That's it!" Mouri Kogoro stepped forward and said loudly, "You stupid! Don't look down on people, why suddenly say that he is a murderer."

"Dad..." Mao Lilan stepped forward to persuade.

Kogoro Mouri waved his hand and continued: "I tell you, when the innkeeper started the car, you were also with Mr. Toye. Tell me, how could he start the car like this."

Hu Yeyan nodded, and at this time a famous detective stood up to speak for him, obviously relieved.

"Yes." Xie Chen said: "It seems impossible, but if you use the stiffness after death and a certain function of the car, it is possible, right?"

Mouri Kogoro said, "What do you mean?"

Xie Chen said: "This is the trick. Let the innkeeper who has been dead a day away now sit in the driver's seat and fix him in the state of pedaling on the brakes."

"After a long time, the corpse became stiff. Even if the engine was on, the gear was switched to the forward gear. The car still wouldn't move because of the brake."

Everyone was listening quietly, watching Hattori Heiji, no one interrupted, this kind of reasoning was no different from a novel.

"Then open the garage before dinner last night, and you can wait here for the body to soften, then the foot on the brake will be released and the car will start automatically."

Mouri Kogoro suddenly laughed and said, "You idiot, it takes more than forty hours for a stiff body to start to soften after a person's death. You have to forget, this is what you just said."

"What if the temperature outside is relatively high?" Xie Chen said.

"Yep?"

"If the temperature around the corpse is as high as 35 degrees, the stiffness and softening speed of the corpse will increase, and it will start to soften after only twenty-four to thirty hours."

Having said this, Xie Chen paused for a while, and then continued: "The hotel owner disappeared after ten o'clock the night before. Now suppose he was killed immediately at that time."

"The car started at about 3:30 this morning, about twenty-nine hours later. Does the time match?"

Xie Chen took a deep breath. Although he could turn into anyone's voice without any tools, the Kansai accent when Hattori Heiji was too strong, he had to take a break.

"The wind-like sound coming from the car is not air-conditioning, but heating. If the air-conditioning is on, there should be water droplets next to the front wheels. This is the result of my reconnaissance."

Mao Lilan said at this time: "That's why you will go with Xie Chen to check the tire tracks at that time."

"That's right." Xie Chen said: "Sure enough, there are no traces of water falling anywhere."

Kogoro Mouri said, "But that kind of trick can be easily understood by an autopsy."

Xie Chen said: "That's why the murderer needs to let the boss's body fall off the cliff with the car. Because the body cannot be found, there is no way to investigate the stiffness after death."

Lu Tianxingzhi interrupted and said: "Then why did the car suddenly accelerate at that time."

Xie Chen said: "It may be caused by the bumpy road and the corpse's foot slipping off the brake pedal."

Xie Chen curled his mouth and continued: "In addition, there is a blanket on the dashboard. It was because the murderer wanted people close to the car to not see that the heating light inside the car was on."

"So that's the case." Kawazu Ikuo said, "Then just watch the car start by yourself with someone in the house, isn't it."

Lu Tian Xingzhi said: "In this case, there will be a perfect alibi."

Xie Chen smiled. After all, everyone present was Sherlock Holmes fans.

"At that time..." Mao Lilan said softly, "Mr. Huye left Ms. Ling Ziqiang in the living room. It turned out that his main purpose for doing this was to create a witness who witnessed the start of the car with him."

"That's right." Xie Chen said, "And the only person who can do this is Miss Ling Zi's companion, Mr. Hu Ye."

Toyeyan, who had not spoken, suddenly let out a mocking laugh, "It's really interesting, your reasoning is as interesting as reading a novel."

Huyeyan pushed his eyes and said confidently: "But it's really a pity. There is no evidence to prove that I am a murderer."

He took a step forward, "And I have always emphasized that I stayed in the house with everyone when the garage was on fire, so anyway, when Ling Zi went to the garage, I couldn't do it."

"You can, and it's very simple." Xie Chen said decisively: "You just need to tell her a word, that is, under the back seat of the car in the garage, the first version of Sherlock Holmes is hidden."

Toba Kento's pupils shrank suddenly, his eyes filled with fear when he saw Hattori Heiji, and he took a step back subconsciously.

"The first version?" Mouri Kogoro asked, "What the **** is going on."

Xie Chen said: "The car in the garage was leaking fuel, and even the battery was out of power. Even if you want to find the book, the back seat will be dark because the lights in the car are not on. It's your words. What will it do?"

"How to do it?" Kogoro Mouri thought for a while and said, "There is no way in the darkness."..
