Chapter 255 is closed; it was suicide.



Chapter 255 is closed; it was suicide.

Murder mystery game script?

What kind of murder mystery game is this?

Takagi Wataru suddenly felt that he couldn't quite understand what Qi Ming was saying.

"Mr. Qi Ming, could you please tell me where the deceased fired the shot?"

Takagi Wataru coughed twice, and said somewhat guiltily:

“We’ve thoroughly investigated the area around the body… cough cough, apart from not finding any shell casings, there were no signs of gunshot wounds in the vicinity.”

"Um……"

Qi Ming glanced at Conan.

This kid seems to have some reasoning skills.

Although I always felt that the police setting in the movie was too perfunctory...

Fine, since he's already said so much, let's just let him handle this case.

Since things have come to this, I have no choice but to expose it myself!

Qi Ming nodded solemnly.

"That's right, the man fired a shot at me, and then I suddenly pulled out a knife and blocked the bullet. Due to some of Newton's laws, the bullet hit the man's forehead directly."

"Then he was shot by his own bullet, and he committed suicide!"

"..."

Everyone present was silent.

Others were only concerned with whether a samurai sword could split a bullet in two.

You're thinking of using a samurai sword to deflect the bullet with minimal effort?

Even Newton didn't know he had written down this theory, okay?

"Mr. Qi Ming, please stop joking, okay? I'm very serious."

Takagi Wataru said helplessly to Qi Ming.

Didn't Inspector Megure say before that Qi Ming was a hidden master detective?

This doesn't feel very good either.

"I'm very serious about it too."

Qi Ming shrugged helplessly.

Takagi Wataru rubbed his temples, but then, remembering Qi Ming's last words, he suddenly thought of something and asked:

"Mr. Qi Ming, according to your last sentence, the final result is that you personally witnessed that person commit suicide, right?"

Qi Ming was taken aback for a moment, then nodded.

"That's right, he was shot in the forehead."

"Isn't this right?"

Takagi Wataru's eyes lit up, and he clapped his hands, saying:

"Then he probably committed suicide!"

Seeing Takagi Wataru's extremely perfunctory attitude, everyone silently looked at him.

Are these police officers any good or not?

Sensing the questioning gazes around him, Takagi Wataru gave an awkward laugh twice, then addressed the crowd:

"Let me explain this to you. Our police have actually encountered this kind of situation before when we were handling cases."

"This often happens in murder cases. Some witnesses see a murder or someone else commits suicide and are unable to accept it for a while. Then, their brains trigger a self-protective program that confuses the memory."

Takagi Wataru then looked at Qi Ming and smiled:

“Mr. Qi Ming is clearly like that. His brain automatically filled in a lot of things, but thankfully he still remembers the suicide attempt.”

After saying that, Takagi Wataru asked Qi Ming with concern:

"By the way, Mr. Qi Ming, do you need to see a psychologist?"

"..."

Qi Ming couldn't help but clap his hands.

"Officer Takagi, excellent reasoning! With a strategist like you in the police force, solving murder cases is a piece of cake!"

"As for a psychologist, I don't need one. I remember now, that person just raised a shotgun and shot himself in the head!"

"I think it must be because he felt too guilty after killing someone!"

A look of realization flashed across Takagi Wataru's eyes.

It's working now, and so is it for him.

Is this the truth of the case?

"In that case, this case can be considered closed."

Seeing how easily Takagi Wataru closed the case, Conan was speechless.

Others might not believe what Qi Ming just said, but he did.

If someone who can change size at will says something that seems unscientific, then it's actually quite scientific.

……

After the case was closed, the camping trip continued.

It's just that two people died, it's no big deal.

However, they decided against setting up tents and camping in the woods and instead chose to stay at a hotel.

After all, the fence between the hunting area and the gathering area is just for show and serves no purpose.

You might wake up the next day to find a bear lying next to you.

Eating bear meat right after waking up was a bit too greasy.

Professor Agasa sighed as he looked at the tent he had finally managed to set up.

Fortunately, at least the kids are helping out this time, so things should be a bit easier.

ding ding-

Qi Ming was looking at the recipe while carrying the rabbit when his phone rang. A call suddenly came in.

Qi Ming looked at the screen, and after a while, he sighed.

The caller was Gin.

Qi Ming's expression was slightly strange. He didn't answer the phone immediately, but instead scrolled through his call history.

Then I discovered... almost all of them were Gin's phone numbers!

After all this time, Gin is the only friend I have?

"Hey?"

Upon hearing Qi Ming's voice, Gin on the other end of the line was taken aback for a moment, then asked in confusion:

"Your voice?"

"I'm back to normal, what's wrong? I'm not used to it yet?"

"……nothing."

Gin raised an eyebrow somewhat strangely, but didn't ask any further questions, and said directly:

"...I heard from Vermouth that you met Shuichi Akai? And you even ruined his eyes?"

Qi Ming remained silent for a moment, then shivered and shrugged.

"Do you really like him? You come here and immediately ask me about Shuichi Akai. What, you're upset because his eye popped out?"

Gin had known Qi Ming for quite some time, and Qi Ming's words at this moment did not stir any emotion in him.

Then, Gin slowly said:

"No, you did a great job, but I'm wondering why you didn't finish him off?"

If a member of another organization had done this, Gin would probably have immediately flown to that member's vicinity, grabbed a gun, and questioned him about his intentions.

But if it was Qi Ming who did it...

Gin thought that this guy with a perverse sense of humor had come up with some new idea for his so-called game.

Qi Ming didn't speak immediately, but just shrank his neck again as if feeling nauseous.

Gin avoided his own questions, so there must be something wrong with him!

"Isn't this for you? I want you to take care of him."

Qi Ming spoke casually, but as soon as he finished speaking, he realized something and slapped himself hard across the face.

The atmosphere was already tense because Gin was avoiding his questions, so what the hell was he talking about?

Gin was also stunned by Qi Ming's words.

However, this mysterious, aloof man didn't have as many tricks up his sleeve as Qi Ming. A rare hint of pleasure appeared on his lips as he said:

That's thoughtful of you. Where is he now?

"He should be in the hospital."

Which hospital?

"A certain hospital."

Gin lost his cheerfulness and then said to Qi Ming in a deep voice:

"...I'm not kidding you."

Qi Ming raised an eyebrow.

"Judging from your expression, you want to go and deal with him right now?"

"Of course, otherwise this guy would hide like a rat once he escapes."

Qi Ming remained silent for a moment, then asked Gin.

"What you did was wrong. The person was seriously injured and you still hit him. That's not right."

"??"

Do you even know what you're talking about?

Before Gin could ask, Qi Ming continued:

"Actually, what I mean is, do you want to snipe him? Kill him fair and square?"

Gin didn't say anything, but his eyes, which were covered by his hat, lit up.

"How to say?"

"Um……"

As Qi Ming pondered, he suddenly remembered the twin-tower skyscraper he had seen from the overpass.

One person standing on each side and sniping seems pretty good, right?
