Chapter 674 The Perfect Secret Room

Chapter 674 The Perfect Secret Room

There is no extra time to think, now... No, Youya looked at Park Zhimu Hexiong: "Do you have the key?"

Park Zhimu Hexiong shook his head: "Only the teacher himself has the key to this room."

Youya wasn't too surprised. If he had the key, he wouldn't have to move the chair over to see what was going on inside.

"Move aside." Youye waved his hand to signal Park Zhimu Hexiong to step back, stood on tiptoe, and then kicked sideways.

"boom!"

The door looked ordinary, but it was surprisingly sturdy, and Yuya couldn't even kick it open.

Park Zhimu Hexiong was startled and said hurriedly: "Mr. Kamiya...?! There is a toolbox in the locker at the end of the corridor..."

Yuuya glanced at the shaky door and estimated that it would open with one more kick. However, in order to prevent damage to the scene, he nodded and said, "Then go get the tools to pry it open."

"I know!" Park Zhimu Hexiong ran over hurriedly and came back with a crowbar in a short while.

Youye took the crowbar, inserted it into the gap in the door, and pried the door open with force.

The door was opened suddenly, and the small gust of wind brought up some scraps of paper. Yuya looked carefully and saw that the ground at the door of the room was covered with torn posters.

"What is this?" Park Zhimu Hexiong asked blankly.

Youye took a look and could vaguely tell that it was a woman from the torn poster. He said thoughtfully, "It should be the painting of Miss Xiaohuang in the meditation room, right? I just don't know why it is here and torn like this..."

Yuya looked up and saw that despite the loud noise of breaking the door, Hirasaka Yoshiki was still lying motionless on the sofa. He took a deep breath and told Park Nobuki Hexiong to stay outside the door. Yuya carefully walked around the shredded paper and came to the sofa.

I reached out to feel Hirasaka Yoshiki's pulse, but there was no response. He was indeed dead.

He shook his head at Park Zhimu Hexiong at the door, who fell to the ground in shock and looked inside the room in disbelief.

Suddenly, a touch of red caught Yuya's attention. He looked down and saw a mobile phone with a red shell and a ball of rope underneath the phone.

If my guess is correct, this should be Akiko Utakura's cell phone. Combined with the marks of strangulation on the neck of the corpse, this rope should be the murder weapon that killed her.

···

Soon, Inspector Megure, a hard-working person who received the report, arrived with his men.

As soon as I arrived at the scene, I saw two familiar figures: "Brother Maori, brother Kamiya..."

He sighed slightly and asked, "What's the situation at the scene? You should have done a general investigation, right?"

Maori Kogoro nodded and stepped forward and said, "First of all, the first victim is called Utakura Akiko, an idol who is about to debut."

"Utakura Akiko?" Inspector Megure was stunned. "Where have I heard this name before?"

Of course, Inspector Megure felt that the person sounded familiar not because of the deceased’s identity as an idol, but because it was related to a certain case.

Maori Kogoro explained: "She was the first person to discover the editor's murder case that happened half a month ago."

Takagi Wataru thought about it and said in surprise: "That seems to be the case that Inspector Shiratori is in charge of."

"Is that so?" Inspector Megure frowned slightly.

Maori Kogoro continued: "I heard that the blood words of KIRA were left next to the body of the murdered editor. This was the information everyone received before we found the body."

Inspector Megure took a look and said in a deep voice: "The sender is also KIRA? Could it be that this case is related to the case that Shiratori is in charge of?"

At this time, the forensic officer came over with a few small motors and loudspeakers: "Inspector, we found these things in the room."

Kogoro Mouri took a look and explained, "This is what we used when we held the séance last night..." He briefly recounted the events of the séance.

The corner of Inspector Megure's mouth twitched slightly, and he asked speechlessly: "So, has the soul been summoned?"

Maori Kogoro waved his hands again and again: "How could such a thing happen? It was just a prank by Mr. Park Noki and Mr. Hirasaka. They probably wanted to scare everyone, but..."

He took the loudspeaker from the forensic officer, picked up a drawing board from the ground, attached the loudspeaker to the back of the board, and then pressed the play button.

Then, Ya Yuanhuang's resentful voice slowly sounded.

Inspector Megure felt a little creepy: "What, what is this?!"

Maori Kogoro stopped playing and said, "According to what they said, the pre-recorded voice of Miss Xiaohuang was not like this. I don't know who replaced her."

He looked at the loudspeaker, squeezed it tightly, and said in a deep voice: "It must be the murderer's doing. He used Miss Xiaohuang's accident as an excuse to kill people again and again..."

Inspector Megure and Takagi Wataru couldn't help but swallow their saliva and their expressions became serious.

The forensic officer came back to his senses and said quickly, "Oh, there is one more thing that is a little strange. There are no defensive wounds on the body. The only mark left on the throat is a noose mark from something like a rope."

Maori Kogoro pinched his chin and said, "In other words, the murderer used drugs to put Miss Akiko into a coma beforehand, and then strangled her to death, right?"

Inspector Megure nodded, looked around and asked, "But this room is a bit strange..."

There is only one door for entrance and exit, and the other one is the skylight on the roof, but it is very high from the ground.

Maori Kogoro explained: "This is the meditation room. It is the place where Mr. Hirasaka creates comics quietly alone. It is also the place where we hold seances."

Inspector Megure nodded slightly: "When the body was found, was this room a closed room?"

Maori Kogoro nodded and said, "Yes, the entrance to this room is locked from the inside with a padlock, and the key to this lock is only owned by Mr. Hirasaka."

Takagi Wataru interrupted, "So far we haven't found the key yet."

Inspector Megure: "Besides this door, are there any other entrances and exits?"

Maori Kogoro raised his hand and pointed at the ceiling and said, "There is a skylight for ventilation over there, and it was closed when we came in.

But at this height, there is no place to step on to reach it.

Even if we use chairs and drawing boards to set up, it won’t work. Even if we can reach it, the things will stay under the window, but we didn’t find that.”

"And..." Maori Kogoro walked to the door and pressed a switch on the wall, "This skylight is electric. Whether it is open or closed, you must continue to press the switch. Once you release it..."

After he finished speaking, he released his hand, and just as he said, the skylight that was slowly opening stopped immediately.

"Of course, the same is true when turning it off. If you don't hold down the switch continuously, it won't turn it off completely."

Inspector Megure nodded slightly: "So the murderer has no way to escape through the skylight, and then close it from the outside? Then how did the murderer escape from this room?"

Seeing that Maori Kogoro and his team could not come up with any useful information, Maori Ran could not help but think of the worst possibility: "Could it be that Miss Xiaohuang's ghost really did it?"

Gao Mushi laughed dryly and said, "How is it possible... We have to believe in science!"

While Kogoro Mouri was analyzing, Conan was standing at the door watching.

Although the uncle's reasoning was obvious, Conan still frowned.

At this point, this room can be said to be a perfect secret room.

But is this really the case?
