Chapter 978 The Forgotten Victim

Chapter 978 The Forgotten Victim

Yuya fell silent after he finished speaking, his eyes occasionally glancing around as if he was waiting for something.

Miyano Shiho and the others secretly rolled their eyes in their hearts. They knew what Youya was waiting for without having to guess - did you have to say that catchphrase? Couldn't you just throw the evidence in the murderer's face?

Others don’t know the secret, but as the final link in the reasoning, of course someone will jump out to cooperate with our Detective Kamiya.

Minegishi Tamami looked at her friend in shock, but she was still a little reluctant to believe it: "These are just your inferences, right? Where is the evidence? Do you have any evidence to prove that it was Sumika who did it?"

Youya raised an eyebrow and put one hand in his pocket and said, "Evidence? Of course I have it. If I wasn't absolutely sure, I wouldn't be standing here."

Yuya said as he walked over to Kazuaki Sumika, grabbed her arms and spread out her sleeves, and Kazuaki Sumika didn't struggle at all during this process.

Yuuya pointed at the salt crystals on her cuffs and said, "The evidence is right here. Xiaolan was the one who tested the water temperature. You didn't touch the bath water at all, so where did the salt crystals on your cuffs come from?"

"This is what was left when you poured a lot of bath salts into the bathtub and stirred the hot water, right? It was soaked by the highly concentrated salt water and then dried up, and the salt particles that precipitated out crystallized."

"It was raining at night and the weather was still a little cold, but you kept your sleeves rolled up. Don't you think that's unreasonable?"

Everyone couldn't help but look at the clothes, then looked at everyone else. Indeed, everyone's sleeves were down, except for Ming Chengxiang, whose sleeves were rolled up.

"But from the first moment I saw you, I felt something was wrong with you."

Kazuaki Sumika finally responded. She looked up at Yuya with a puzzled expression: "At the beginning?"

"That's right," Sera Masumi found an opportunity to interrupt, "Mr. Nida and Ms. Tamae both thought I was a boy, but you were the only one who knew from the beginning that I was Sera's sister and handed the photo to me directly."

"Generally speaking, you would think that one of the three girls is the younger sister, right?"

"So we guess that the woman in red that we saw in the forest when we first arrived here was actually you in disguise, right?"

Hearing this, Jinda Jinfu and Minegishi Tamae looked at Kazuaki Sumika in surprise: "The woman in red is Sumika in disguise? Why?"

"Why?" Kazuaki Sumika said in a deep voice, "Of course, it's to find the guy who let Satoko die!"

"Congzi? What's going on?" Ren Tian and Shenfu were confused. "Congzi was not... "

Yuya interrupted him: "The woman in red died fifteen years ago. Do you still think that Satoko was killed by her?"

Ren Tianshenfu was stunned: "What, what do you mean?"

Yuya said in a deep voice: "Officer Uehara said that the body of the girl was found wearing a red coat..."

Ren Tian Shenfu was surprised: "I remember that day, wasn't Congzi wearing a beige sweater?"

"That's right," Kazuaki Sumireka clutched her sleeve tightly, "At that time, Satoko got separated from us. She actually went to pretend to be the woman in red and planned to scare us."

"This prank requires at least one person to assist and lead the rest of us to where Satoko is."

Ren Tianshenfu guessed something: "Could that person be Bo Gu?"

"That's right," Kazuaki Sumika nodded vigorously, "I was also responsible for the strange things that happened in the villa before, just to make that person think of the woman in red and tell him what happened back then.

It was not until Shiliang's sister and her friends came and said they saw a figure in red that Bo Gu subconsciously said that person was Satoko. Then I knew that person was Bo Gu!"

Ren Tian Shenfu was stunned for a moment. It was indeed a bit strange to say this. His reaction at that time was the murderer in red fifteen years ago, not his classmate Satoko.

"When I interrogated Bo Gu, he said that he was scared because he didn't see Cong Zi at the agreed place, and thought she got lost in the forest and didn't show up at the agreed place."

Kazuaki Sumika's body trembled slightly, and her voice was extremely angry: "If that guy had confessed to the prank at that time, Satoko wouldn't have to die!"

Everyone was silent.

At this time, Yui Uehara asked, "By the way, Detective Kamiya, you said that the person who attacked Ms. Sumika was another person. Who was it?"

Kazuaki Sumika sneered, "It must be that Renda or Tamae discovered that the woman in red was me in disguise, so they attacked me."

"I would never do such a thing!" Minegishi Tamami argued loudly.

Ren Tian Shenfu also nodded in agreement.

"Then, who is it?" Uehara Yui felt something was wrong. If the woman in red was not the one present, her face changed, "Could it be..."

Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko couldn't help but tremble slightly together: "Could it really be the ghost of the woman in red?"

You also rolled his eyes: "I said it was a human..."

It’s fine if they were just two timid girls, but how could you, a policeman, say such things?

Uehara Yui asked nervously, "Who is that?"

Sera Masumi reminded, "Isn't there another person? Someone who is clearly related to the case fifteen years ago, but her life or death has never been mentioned..."

Uehara Yui was stunned for a moment, and suddenly thought of something: "Could it be that..."

At this moment, there was a sudden loud thunder, and the blue-white lightning shone into the dim room. Everyone looked out the window as if they had sensed something, and were horrified to find that a long-haired person was standing outside without them knowing.

The next second, the glass was smashed and a strong wind blew into the room, blowing out the candlelight. At the same time, a dark shadow jumped into the house through the window.

Mouri Ran and Suzuki Sonoko, who were closest to the window, hugged their heads and screamed on the spot.

Yuya's eyes narrowed, and he stepped forward to protect Miyano Shi behind him.

Just as Masumi Sera was about to protect Conan, he heard a creepy voice in the darkness: "I found you..."

A cold light flashed in the darkness, and a sharp blade was swung down towards He Ming Chengxiang without mercy.

Conan subconsciously flicked away the anesthetic watch, but it was pitch black and he couldn't see where the person was. If he accidentally hit Kazuaki Sumika, wouldn't that make her a piece of meat on the chopping board?

Just when You was about to help, a dark shadow suddenly passed through the crowd and stood in front of the long-haired girl.

"Dang!" A crisp sound of metal collision.

"That's it! There is no woman in red here. Your revenge ended fifteen years ago!"

This courageous voice with a hint of impulsiveness is quite familiar. Is it Yamato Gansuke?

At the same time, another person also walked over slowly: "There is an old saying that goes, 'If you make a mistake, you should not hesitate to correct it.' It means that if you make a mistake, you must repent in time, and there is no need to hesitate."

"We, the Nagano Prefecture Police, will also announce the negligence in the report on the murder case fifteen years ago at a press conference tomorrow."

"So please put down your weapon, Ms. Kagawa Shixin. After all, you were also one of the victims of the Red Dress Woman incident."

This calm and pretentious voice that tells the truth is undoubtedly the work of Zhu Fu.
