Vol 20 Chapter 225: Time confusion

Kogoro Mouri thought for a while and said, "I'm looking at the clock in her car."

Xie Chen then asked: "What about before the ride."

Kogoro Mouri said, "There is also a clock in the hotel. At Shibahama Station, look at the station clock."

"What time is that time." Xie Chen put down his job.

Kogoro Mouri said, "It's half past seven."

"At half past seven..." Xie Chen nodded and began to calculate that it would take 15 minutes to ride from Shibahama Station to Mihua Station, and it would take about 10 minutes to walk from Mihua Station to Mihua Middle School.

"That's what I said." Thinking of this, Xie Chen said: "When my uncle met Miss Sachiko..."

Kogoro Mouri looked a little impatient, and said loudly, "I told you it was exactly eight o'clock, because I happened to hear the bell ringing nearby."

After breakfast, Xie Chen came to school.

In the morning there is a physical education class. Xie Chen took the children of the Junior Detective Team around the playground as usual. Since they want to be detectives, they need not only their brains, but also enough physical strength.

After school in the afternoon, Xie Chen refused Ayumi Yoshida's invitation to play at her home.

After returning to the detective office, he found that Kogoro Mori was sitting in a chair watching TV. It seems that Officer Megumi did not ask him about yesterday's case. It is estimated that it was handled as a robber case.

Xie Chen put down his schoolbag and suddenly remembered that Kojima Motota had ran an extra lap because he wanted to eat eel and rice in the evening, so he raised his head and asked Kogoro Mouri: "Did you take the subway around the ring railway yesterday? ."

"Round the railway around the ring?" Mouri Kogoro asked puzzled.

Xie Chen nodded and said, "Uncle, after you get on the tram from Shibahama Station, will you fall asleep right away?"

Mouri Kogoro stunned, and nodded blankly.

"It takes an hour to go around the circular railway. If the tram goes around once when my uncle is asleep, it will not be 7:45 when he arrives at Mihua Station, but 8:45. Up."

"Impossible!" Mouri Kogoro patted the table, stood up and said loudly, "I only slept for a short 15 minutes. I will never sleep a full circle."

Xie Chen said, "Then let's try it out."

"What?" Mouri Kogoro asked in confusion.

Xie Chen said: "Tonight we will take the circular railway together, and we will take the same tram that departs at 7:30 from Shibahama Station."

Kogoro Mouri sat down on the chair, and after thinking about it, he agreed, "It doesn't matter."

At 7:30, they got on the subway at Shibahama Station.

Mao Lilan asked softly, "How is it, Dad, do you think of anything?"

Kogoro Mouri sighed, "No, it seems that I slept soundly last night, but..."

Having said this, he suddenly cheered up, "Miss Sachiko will definitely not be the murderer."

Xie Chen smiled bitterly: "Let's sit around for a while before talking."

About half an hour later, the subway arrived at Fujimi Station, which is the farthest station from Shibahama Station.

At Fujimi Station, three elementary school students came up, and when they saw Mouri Kogoro, they hid to one side and covered their mouths for fun, but Xie Chen found out that he gently touched Mourilan who was sitting next to him.

Mao Lilan got up and walked to the three elementary school students, leaned down and asked: "What's the matter with you guys, do you know that uncle?"

"Candy," said the little boy in the red cap.

"Huh?" Mao Lilan didn't understand what it meant.

The little boy in a yellow jacket said: "The uncle was sleeping in the car yesterday with his mouth wide open, and then he threw the candy in his mouth."

Mouri Kogoro seemed to think of something in vain, showing a surprised expression.

Xie Chen quickly got up and asked: "What time is it then?"

The little boy in the purple shirt said, "It's the same as today, around eight o'clock."

Mouri Kogoro's pupils shrank suddenly and looked up at the subway timetable.

"In that case, it was almost nine o'clock when I got to Mihua Station, so it was nine o'clock when I met Ms. Sachiko."

"Yes." Xie Chen said, "Then it should be 9:30 to the scenic spot of the Beach Bridge. After 30 minutes of chatting, it will be ten o'clock, and it will be ten ten if you wake up."

Xie Chen calculated the correct time in an instant, "In fact, uncle, you only think you slept for an hour and ten minutes. You made a mistake. In fact, you only slept for ten minutes."

Afterwards, they returned to Mihua Market and went directly to the back door of Mihua Middle School.

Standing at the place where he met Sachiko Shimamura yesterday, Mouri Kogoro slowly said, "In other words, she adjusted the clock forward by one hour, so that I can use me to do an alibi for her."

He walked forward two steps, and then continued: "Last night she deliberately parked the car in this place to avoid people's eyes and eyes, and then went to kill her roommate."

"After entering the room from the gap where the window was opened in advance, she deliberately made some noises. After the victim was awakened, she created a scene similar to the robber killing."

Mao Lilan went on to say: "Then she came back here again and met her father, right."

Mouri Kogoro touched his chin, seeming to be reminiscing, and said after a long time: "Yes, I remember that time...that must be the blood suit she wore when she committed the murder, and the gloves she used to commit the crime."

Xie Chen said: "If this is the case, she must have disposed of it while uncle was sleeping on the bridge."

Kogoro Mouri nodded in agreement.

Xie Chen continued: "The clock on the car was also set by her for an hour before the uncle got on the car. During the period when the uncle was asleep, she adjusted it back again."

"Damn it." Mouri Kogoro gritted his teeth and said, "Dare to tease my detective Kogoro like this."

Xie Chen asked: "Other than that, is there anything strange?"

Mouri Kogoro hugged his arm, and after a while, he whispered, "Ball pen..."

In the evening of the next day, they came to Shimamura Sachiko's apartment with Officer Megure, and told Shimamura Sachiko about the three children they met on the subway yesterday. ..
