Chapter 613 The victim killed the victim?
Yuya glanced at the photo, which showed Makino Hiiragi and Tokita Wakaba in casual clothes, and they seemed to be on a date.
The dating locations were different. Some kissed in the car, some came out of a love hotel, and some in a cafe...
Makino Shuu came over to take a look and said in surprise: "This isn't me and Ruoye... Uh-huh, I didn't expect that someone would actually secretly take a photo of us..."
Yuya flipped through the photos one by one with a thoughtful expression - were these photos really taken secretly?
He pretended to look up at the time, then said to Miyano Shiho, "It's getting late, shall we go to bed early?"
Miyano Shiho had been running around with Yuya all day investigating cases. After hearing his words, she felt a little tired. She yawned and said, "I am indeed a little sleepy."
Makino Shuu said that he wanted to be alone.
Yuya and Miyano Shiho said goodbye to him and went to the guest room on the second floor.
After entering the room, Miyano Shiho turned around and hugged Yuya, rubbing against his chest: "Hug~"
Youye put his arm around her waist, kissed her forehead and said, "Would you like to wash first?"
Miyano Shiho nodded, turned and walked into the bathroom.
Youya walked to the window, looked at the darkness outside, then looked at the photo in his hand, and finally took out his cell phone and dialed a number.
"Officer Takagi, I'm sorry to bother you so late... Oh, you're working overtime, that's okay."
"It's like this, there's something I want you to investigate for me..."
After hanging up, Youya dialed another number: "Officer Yamamura, there are some things I need you to investigate, about the wedding dress and scarf that Tokita Wakaba was wearing at the time..."
···
The next day, everyone gathered at the church.
Feng Ji Jun also asked Yamamura So: "Mr. Officer, you said you called us here because you knew who the murderer was. Why didn't you tell us? What are you waiting for?"
Others also chimed in.
Shancuncao wiped the sweat from his forehead and comforted everyone: "Don't worry, it should be here soon."
"Who are you waiting for?"
Everyone was puzzled.
Just then, Yuya walked in with Miyano Shiho.
He looked around at everyone, and when he saw that everyone was present, he said, "Sorry for the long wait, everyone. It took a while to collect some things."
Dou Li Er asked anxiously: "Do you know who the murderer is?"
Youye nodded and said slowly: "Yes, I have figured out everything about this case, the identity of the murderer, the mystery of the mummy cutting, and the true identity of the fifth mummy."
"The murderer who killed Tokida Wakaba, Kabuto Kiriko, and Fuyuki Sanko in succession, the fifth mummy is among us!"
"What?" Everyone's face suddenly changed, and they looked at the people around them in surprise and suspicion.
"Wait, Detective Kamiya," Yamamura Sou was surprised and puzzled, "If the murderer is among these people, then how did Tokita Wakaba get killed in the first case?"
"Everyone was at the Tokita family's dinner when she was killed, right? And the church is also a secret room..."
Yu said calmly, "Indeed, we were all at Tokita's house before we heard the church bells. After we discovered something was wrong, we immediately rushed to the church and forced the door open. We found Tokita Wakaba's headless body inside the church with the doors and windows locked."
"The person who was with her at the time, Kabuto Kiriko, also disappeared, and her body was found later. The armor containing Kiriko's body had the number two written on it, so we naturally thought that Kabuto Kiriko was killed after Tokida Wakaba."
"However, the note on the armor was a trap set by the murderer, because... the first person killed was not Tokida Wakaba, but Kabuto Kiriko!
The headless corpse we saw at that time was not Tokita Wakaba at all, but Kabuto Kiriko!"
"The first person to be killed is Wu Zi?" Everyone was shocked.
Dou Reiji asked anxiously: "What is going on? Why was Wu Zi the first one to be killed? Was the person who killed her also the fifth mummy?"
"No," Yuya shook his head, "Everyone was at Tokita's house at the time, including the fifth mummy."
Dou Li Er was confused: "Who killed Wu Zi?"
Yuya said calmly: "Isn't there another person who is with Kabuto?"
Dou Reiji was stunned for a moment, his face suddenly changed: "You said that the person who killed Wu Zi was Ruoye? How is this possible?!"
Yuya said slowly: "At that time, Tokita Wakaba deceived Kiriko before closing the church door. The reason she used was probably that there was one last person she wanted to see before the ceremony. So the two of them exchanged clothes."
"Dou Wuzi, wearing a wedding dress, stayed alone in the church and locked the door from the inside. Then she lay on the bed that had been prepared in advance, turning the church into a secret room."
"Then, Tokida Wakaba, who was watching the situation from the skylight, found the right moment to use a fishing line to lower a silk scarf soaked in anesthetic to cover her face, and Kiriko fell into a coma."
Feng Jichun also immediately raised a question: "But, that skylight is fixed, and the railings can't let people pass through. Even if Wu Zi fell asleep, it's impossible to go in and kill people, right?"
Youye walked to the bed, patted the iron railing and said, "You can't get down by yourself, but you can hoist the bed up!"
"The method is very simple. You just need to prepare a rope with a hook in advance, hook it to the four corners of the bed and pull it up."
"I see." Shancuncao touched his chin pretentiously.
"But that's not right," Feng Jijun also questioned, "With the weight of the bed and Wu Zi, how could Ruoye, a girl, pull it up?"
"Of course it's not possible to do it by manpower, but don't we have ready-made tools?"
"What tool?" Feng Jichun was also stunned, "We don't have such a machine in our village?"
"You don't have one, but..." Yuya looked at Makino Hiiragi, "Mr. Makino, if I remember correctly, your car has a powerful winch for climbing hills, right? I saw it in the photo."
Makino Shuu was stunned for a moment, not realizing what the photo he was talking about was, but there was nothing to hide about this kind of thing, so he nodded.
Yuya continued: "So, Tokita Wakaba used the car's powerful winch to lift the bed and Kou Mikoto up together. At the same time, in order to prevent the blood from splashing, she strangled the person to death and then cut off the head..."
"Although the railings of the skylight cannot allow people to pass through, a girl's head can still fit through. I have already done experiments on this."
"In other words, this secret room was not where the person escaped after killing someone, but where the person killed someone outside and took out the head."
There were twinkling stars in Miyano Shiho's eyes - she suddenly remembered the day when Yuya asked her to stick her head through the railing. It turned out that he had roughly guessed the method of the secret room at that time?
Awesome, worthy of him~
