Chapter 587: So that's what happened
Hibiki Eri led everyone to where she was sitting and said, "This is where I'm going to sit."
"Hmm..." Inspector Megure nodded after thinking for a moment, "Since 8 o'clock in the evening, Attorney Hime has been in this position, right?"
Hibiki nodded: "Yes, I arrived at the store at 8 o'clock, and then washed my hair for 10 minutes and dyed my hair for 20 minutes..."
She described the process and time very clearly.
Inspector Megure exclaimed: "How could Lawyer Hime remember the time so clearly?"
Kisaki Eri nodded and glanced at Maori Kogoro: "I got my hair done tonight and made an appointment with someone to have dinner together, so I have been paying attention to the time."
Kogoro Mouri didn't know whether he was embarrassed or what, but he turned his face away and didn't look at her.
Inspector Megure nodded to show that he understood, then looked at Yuya and said, "Brother Kamiya, did you arrive at the store around 8:25 pm?"
Yuya nodded, "That's right. When we arrived, Miss Kaidai was out temporarily, so we sat down and waited for her. I looked at the clock at that time, and it was exactly 8:25."
"After about 5 minutes, Miss Kaishiro came back."
Inspector Megure pondered and said, "That is to say, from 8:20 to 8:30 p.m., Miss Kaishiro was not in the store, but she was away for only 10 minutes..."
Although this amount of time is enough to kill someone, it is obviously not enough to move the body.
Maori Kogoro immediately said: "Sure enough, it was done during this period of time. If you drive, it only takes 3 minutes from here to the scene..."
Fei Yingli was very dissatisfied: "I'm talking to you..."
"Well, I don't have a driver's license..." Yezaka Minamiyo whispered, "And I just went to the convenience store when I took out the trash."
Kogoro Mori was suddenly silenced.
"What did you do at the convenience store?" asked Inspector Megure.
Yezaka Kaidai said, "I ran out of rice at home, so I went to buy a bag... In that case, how about going to a convenience store to check? The store owner should be able to vouch for me."
The crowd came out of the barber shop from the back door, which led to a small T-shaped alley.
There was a small motorcycle parked at the back door. Yezaka Kaiyo explained, "This is the motorcycle my father left behind. I rode it when I went to the convenience store just now."
Maori Kogoro immediately shouted: "I know, she used this motorcycle to transport the body!"
Hibiki smiled angrily, put her hands on her hips and approached Maori Kogoro: "Are you an idiot? It's already very hard to carry a 90 kg person, and you have to secure it so that no one can find it and transport it away. How is this possible!"
"More importantly, how did they carry the body down and dispose of it in this state?"
Maori Kogoro was forced to step back, put his hands in front of him and shouted: "So, I'm just assuming, assuming..."
Kisaki Eri folded her arms across her chest and snorted.
"So which way is it to get to the convenience store?" asked Inspector Megure.
Ye Saka pointed to the path that was in front of the back door and said, "This is it. After you go past it, you will be able to reach the main road in front of the convenience store."
Yuuya looked at another road: "What about this one?"
Before Hasaka Kaiyo could reply, Youya had already walked down the path, and Miyano Shiho hurried to follow him.
The end of the path is also connected to the road. Yuya stood on the railing and looked down, and found that the pile of garbage with corpses was just under the two layers of road below.
Yuya stroked his chin and thought: "Is it possible that the body was thrown directly from here?"
Miyano Shiho calculated in her mind and shook her head in denial, "It shouldn't be possible. The height here is about 12 meters and the width is about 10 meters. If the body is to be thrown down from here, without considering air resistance, the initial velocity of the body must be at least 6m/s."
"Hasaka Minashiro's physique is not enough to do such a thing."
"Is it impossible to do it with human power?" Youya pinched his chin thoughtfully, unless Yezaka Kaishiro was the kind of strongman who looked thin but actually had great strength.
But it's obviously impossible.
Conan appeared beside Yuya's legs at some point and said, "When we found the body, we heard three sounds. The first was a bang, then a bang when an object fell to the ground, and finally a rattling sound."
"Hmm?" Yuya looked down at Conan, who was leaning on the railing looking down.
Conan said in a deep voice: "These three sounds must be related to the appearance of the corpse there, but what exactly are the sounds..."
"Bang, bang, click, click?" You couldn't help but frown. What does this mean?
Wait, touch?
Youya squatted down and checked the railing, and soon found suspicious marks on it.
"Look, Conan, there are traces of collision here, and there are traces of thin ropes scratching under the railing."
Conan also came over to take a closer look and said, "It looks like it was recently left here. Why is there this here?"
The three returned to the back door of the barber shop, but the others were gone. They must have gone to the convenience store.
In addition to the small motorcycle, there was a table at the back door, on which were an overturned chair, some old books and other miscellaneous items.
"What's going on with these things?" Conan asked puzzledly.
Miyano Shiho guessed, "I think he's putting all the unused stuff together and disposing of them all at once on the next garbage collection day. That's what I usually do."
Conan looked at Miyano Shiho with a slightly horrified look in his eyes - what, this freak of science girl can do housework? Shouldn't she be in the laboratory, holding test tubes and conducting experiments on mice with a scary smile on her face?
Miyano Shiho frowned slightly: "What do you mean by that look?"
Conan shook his head vigorously: "No, nothing, I'm just surprised that you still know this."
Miyano Shiho looked at the back of Conan's head suspiciously, making him break out in a cold sweat.
Conan looked at Yuya for help, but the latter stared at the chair with a frown. He had no choice but to shrink his neck and try to reduce his presence as much as possible.
Unfortunately, there are only three people here, and the gaze that wants to slice him is always on Conan.
"Let's go to the convenience store and have a look!" Conan was a little scared and ran away.
Miyano Shiho glanced at Conan, walked up to Yuya and asked, "Did you find anything?"
Yuya nodded slightly and pointed at the chair and said, "I'm wondering why everything here is neatly packed, but the backrest of this chair is not lowered, but raised to the highest position?"
Miyano Shiho took a look and said thoughtfully: "This height... seems to be about the same as the roadside railings."
Huh? Youya was stunned for a moment, and a flash of lightning flashed through his mind.
He suddenly turned his head to look at the path leading to the garbage dump, then looked at the road towards the convenience store, and his eyes fell on the railing on the side of the road.
"If my guess is correct, there should be some there..."
Yuya quickly ran to the railing, squatted down to check it, and sure enough, he found the same scratches as on the other side.
His eyes scanned the motorcycle, the chair, and the railings beside him several times, and after a while he smiled with understanding.
"I see, that's what happened!"
