Chapter 415 Sato Miwako’s reasoning (2)
No need to throw it in yourself?
Inspector Megure and Kogoro Mori looked confused and puzzled. What did this mean?
"I'll show you once, and you'll understand."
After saying this, Miwako Sato turned and walked towards the room where the crime scene occurred.
Inspector Megure glanced at her back suspiciously, then looked at Hakuba Matsu.
At this time, the white pine tree nodded slightly.
After seeing what Hakubamatsu did, Inspector Megure now truly believed what Sato Miwako said.
Then, he followed with Kogoro Mori and others, as well as the three suspects.
Seeing this scene, Bai Masong sighed inwardly.
This is also a very helpless thing.
The island nation is a country where seniority is very important, and the younger generations must be respectful to their elders.
But at the same time, this is also a very pragmatic country. If you have ability, you will be respected.
Hakuba Matsu and Maori Kogoro are both famous at this time, and Inspector Megure must take their words very seriously and believe them.
So, this is also the reason why many times, Inspector Megure looks like he can do nothing and can only nod his head.
Although he was indeed lacking in ability, he did this because Kogoro Mori and Hakuba Matsu were recognized masters of reasoning, so he trusted them without thinking.
After all, Inspector Megure is just too superstitious about authority.
Back to the point, when Sato Miwako spoke, Inspector Megure and Kogoro Mori's expressions of doubt were very obvious, and it was because Sato Miwako did not usually have a brilliant performance.
So, Inspector Megure really doesn't believe in her reasoning ability.
Under normal circumstances, when Hakumasatsu started talking, Inspector Megure would be ecstatic, shocked, and extremely excited, and would listen carefully. Even if there were things he didn't understand, he would ask questions in a consulting tone.
But today, he spoke in a harsh voice, which was a clear sign of looking down on others.
In this regard, Hakubamatsu does not think that this is Inspector Megure's personal problem. Everyone will encounter such a situation.
Therefore, Miwako Sato can only let her face it alone. All he can give her is some spiritual encouragement.
After entering the room where the crime was committed, Sato Miwako picked up the ice cream on the ground and asked Inspector Megure and Maori Kogoro again,
"Inspector Megure, Mr. Maori, I mentioned before that this ice cream is strange. Do you remember?"
"Ah."
Inspector Megure and Kogoro Mori nodded together to indicate that they remembered.
Miwako Sato continued,
"At the time, I just thought that such a recently produced ice cream, mixed in with such a pile of old-fashioned snacks, looked very abrupt, but I didn't know what its function was."
"But now, I know."
After saying this, Miwako Sato put the ice cream aside.
Then she went to the refrigerator in the room and took out an ice cream from it.
Then she picked up something from the ground.
When everyone looked closely, they found that it was some kind of snack from a long time ago, and it was also one of the snacks provided in this room - long-line gummy candy.
"First, we use the ice cream as a long rectangular board and place it on the TV's turntable and the table next to it."
As she spoke, she laid the knob of the turntable flat, and everyone discovered that in this way, the height of the knob was almost the same as the table next to it.
"Then, we put the long string of jelly beans directly on the coin slot of the TV, let one end of it hang in the air, and press the other end under the ice cream."
As she spoke, she performed the corresponding operations.
After finishing, she let out a sigh of relief.
After all, she had only thought about it and had not done any practical work, so although she felt that there was nothing wrong with this method, it was her first time to reason on her own, so she was still a little nervous.
She smiled happily, and then smiled at the people watching beside her.
"In this way, the mechanism is complete!"
When Sato Miwako said this, everyone present had different expressions.
This, is it done?
Inspector Megure was a little surprised. If this time was the same as usual, then wouldn’t this method be too simple?
Compared to the surprise of Inspector Megure and others, Yamamoto Kimiko in the crowd was very nervous at this time, with a hint of panic in her eyes.
Her methods have been reproduced by the police in front of her. Doesn't this mean that she has been exposed?
"Yes, that's done."
Sato Miwako smiled and pointed to the coin slot of the TV above.
"Look, the thin thread that holds the long-line jelly beans has blocked the coin slot. Even if you put a coin in it, it won't fall into the slot smoothly."
“And after that, it’s even easier.”
"The murderer only needs to leave the room and wait quietly for the ice cream to melt. After the ice cream melts, it changes from a solid that can be supported to a liquid that cannot be supported, and finally falls from the TV knob and the middle of the table."
"When the ice cream falls, the thin thread of the long-line gummy candy will also fall down because one side loses the pressure and the other side has the weight of the gummy candy."
"After the thread was completely torn off, the coin naturally fell into the coin slot, and the TV started up by itself in the room where no one was."
After Sato Miwako finished speaking, Inspector Megure was stunned for a long while before slowly coming back to his senses.
There was a hint of complexity in the look he gave Sato Miwako.
I didn't expect that this junior who I had watched grow up since childhood now has the ability to stand on his own.
Inspector Megure felt quite emotional, but he also readily accepted this fact.
He adjusted his attitude and asked Sato Miwako seriously,
"So, Sato, who is the murderer who used this method?"
"It seems that each of these three ladies can use this technique."
Hearing Inspector Megure's question, Sato Miwako smiled slightly.
"The murderer actually told us her identity just now."
"Think about it, if this method is true, then the victim must have been killed before one o'clock, so..."
Sato Miwako looked at Yamamoto Kimitoko, who was pinching the hem of her skirt with both hands, and said in a deep voice,
"Ms. Yamamoto, you who claimed to have received a call from the deceased at 1:08 and talked to her, you are the murderer!"
