Chapter 218 The murderer was found? !
"White Bird, show me that bullet."
bullet?
Shiratori Renzaburo was stunned. Although he didn't know what Bai Masong wanted the bullet for, he immediately gave it to Bai Masong.
Maybe Bai Masong has other ideas about bullets?
"White Horse, here."
As he said that, Shiratori Renzaburo handed an evidence bag to Baimasong, and the bullet was inside the evidence bag.
Bai Masong took the evidence bag, opened it with his white-gloved hands, and took out the bullet.
Then, he took the bullet that killed Shigehiko Tsuchiguchi in front of his eyes and looked at it carefully again and again.
In particular, focus on the base of the bullet.
The more Bai Masong looked, the more serious his expression became, and his eyes were narrowed into slits.
"This bullet doesn't seem to be a new one."
Bai Masong's words made Shiratori Renzaburo a little confused. This bullet had just killed someone, so it was definitely not a new bullet.
Bai Masong was thinking about explaining,
Just then, Takagi Wataru ran in from outside the door.
While running, he shouted,
"Inspector Megure, Inspector Hakuba, I just found out something!"
"What is it, Brother Takagi?"
Inspector Megure asked immediately.
"Yes, yes, huhu..."
Takagi Wataru was panting, but a happy smile appeared on his face.
"This room doesn't actually belong to Mr. Tsuchiguchi Shigehiko."
"what?!"
Takagi Shigeru's words immediately drew everyone's attention.
Isn't this room Shigehiko Tsuchiguchi's room?
Then why is he here?
"Whose room is this?"
Bai Ma Song asked aloud.
Judging from the layout of the scene, whoever owns this room is most likely the murderer.
"This room belongs to Mr. Kenzo Masuyama, the chairman of Masuyama Motors!"
It's him? !
Everyone was shocked again. Chairman Kenzo Masuyama is a giant in the automotive industry!
"Inspector Megure,"
Bai Masong immediately spoke up,
"This Mr. Masuyama Kenzo is the murderer! Issue a warrant immediately and bring him to justice!"
what? !
Inspector Megure couldn't count how many times he had been startled in the past few minutes.
But now I still can't help being surprised!
Does this identify the murderer?
Moreover, if Chairman Kenzo Masuyama is really the murderer, then the automobile industry in the island country of Tokyo will be in for a major earthquake!
However, despite thinking this, Officer Megure still abides by his duties as a police officer.
"Did you hear that? Everyone, act now!"
"Now, the entire hotel is looking for Masuyama Kenzo, we must bring him to justice!"
"Yes!"
The police officers shouted in unison, and then they scattered to capture Kenzo Masuyama.
After seeing everyone's actions, Inspector Megure also asked Hakuba Song about his doubts.
"Brother Bai Ma, what exactly is this case..."
"Inspector Megure,"
Bai Masong knew that it was time to explain the case again.
“This case is actually very simple.”
"On the surface, this seems to be a strictly closed room, and it is a closed room that was sealed by the deceased alone."
"But, all of this could actually be done by the murderer, guiding the deceased."
"guide?"
Miwako Sato, who was listening on the side, couldn't understand how this was guided.
"All we need is some information and our understanding of Councillor Tsuchiguchi Shigehiko's personality."
Bai Ma Song said so.
He pointed at the briefcase and a pile of white papers on Tsuchiya Shigehiko's desk and motioned for everyone to look over there.
"I just carefully checked this pile of things in front of Tunkou Shigehiko."
"I found that most of them were actually blank papers, with only one or two pages containing actual information."
"And what is written on these materials is some evidence of Tunkou Shigehiko's crimes, which is commonly known as leverage."
"So, I think the murderer must have evidence of Tsunkou Shigehiko's crime, and then used threats and inducements to force Tsunkou Shigehiko to engage in some illegal transactions with him."
"Finally, we can use the excuse that the deal is done to tell Tsunoguchi Shigehiko that all the evidence against him is in this room."
"As for why they didn't just hand it over? I think the murderer could have said that he was worried about causing trouble for the identities of the two people."
"In this way, Shigehiko Tsuguchi will obediently walk into this murder room set up by the murderer!"
"Um,"
After hearing this, Inspector Megure nodded. This made sense and was enough to explain why Shigehiko Tsuchiguchi closed all the doors and windows.
The reason is very simple, he simply doesn't want others to know and wants to protect his criminal evidence.
but......
"How did the murderer kill Shigehiko Tōguchi?"
Inspector Megure asked again.
Yes, this is the most important issue now.
In other words, this is the most important issue in locked room cases.
If the mystery of the murder in the locked room case cannot be solved, then in this world, even if the case goes to court, the person will most likely be found not guilty.
Of course, this has not happened yet.
Because although there are many intelligent criminals in this world, there are also many intelligent detectives.
There is also a small group of detectives, like Kudo Shinichi and Hattori Heiji, who like to help others.
Although they have taken away some of the profits of professional detectives, they have helped the police improve their crime-solving rate. They can be said to be both loved and hated.
Bai Masong listened to Inspector Megure's question with a cold smile on his face.
"It's simple. Just use this bullet."
Bai Masong took out the bullet in his hand and showed it to Inspector Megure and others.
"Hey hey hey, Brother Bai Ma,"
Inspector Megure said with a frown on his face,
"Of course I know he was shot to death. What I want to know is how the murderer shot Shigehiko Tsuchiguchi to death!"
"No no no,"
Bai Masong just shook his head.
"Officer Megure, what I said was to use this bullet, but not to shoot."
Ah? !
Everyone was stunned. It was a bullet that killed him, but it was not a gunshot. Could it be that the bullet flew out by itself?
"That's right,"
Bai Masong may have seen the doubts of the crowd,
"This bullet really flew out by itself."
Hearing this, Shiratori Renzaburo seemed to understand something.
"Inspector Baima, could it be that the murderer created some kind of ejection device to eject the bullet directly?"
Hearing this, Bai Masong nodded, but then shook his head.
"You're half right,"
Bai Ma Song said,
"The murderer did make a small device, but it was not a device for ejecting bullets, but a device for fixing bullets."
