The famous criminal in the world of Conan

Chapter 443 Convinced

Looking at the scene in front of him and listening to Yamato Gansuke's words, Bai Masong had only one word in his mind - awesome!

This is the concept and understanding that a police officer should have!

All the crime-solving techniques and puzzle-solving are used to find the murderer and collect evidence.

But now that the murderer has been identified and evidence has been collected, isn't it simply putting the cart before the horse to go back and dwell on those methods?

After praising in his heart, Baimasong sighed secretly again.

Why is it that there is no good policeman like Yamato Gansuke in the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department?

No, it’s not that there aren’t any, but capable police officers like this have basically been promoted in the Metropolitan Police Department.

For example, there is Matsumoto Kiyonaga, who was stabbed several times while chasing the robbers, and Odagiri Toshiro who is very capable.

They are no longer working on the front line, so the only front-line police officers left are old detectives like Inspector Megure who are still passionate about the police career but lack some abilities.

Thinking of this, Bai Masong looked at Yamato Gansuke with a look of desire unconsciously in his eyes.

"Ok?"

Yamato Gansuke's aggressive movements suddenly paused, as if he sensed something.

He looked at Bai Ma Song in confusion, and Bai Ma Song immediately retracted his "passionate" gaze and turned to look coldly at Hojo Hatsuho.

"Ms. Hatsuho."

Bai Masong said lightly,

"If you want to be caught knowingly, I can give it to you."

"Eh?"

Hojo Hatsuho looked at Hakuba Matsu in confusion.

I only heard Bai Masong speaking in a calm and even voice,

"Your methods are nothing more than two."

"First of all, there's only one footprint in the snow, that's easy."

"In short, it is to use the wide footprints behind to cover the small footprints left behind."

"You just need to walk to the wing room casually. When you come back from the wing room, your shoe prints will naturally be bigger when you are wearing armor. In this way, as long as you deliberately walk back in line with the previous shoe prints, you can use the later footprints to cover the previous footprints."

"This is the puzzle you created, only when you come back from the wing, you can't see the footprints in the snow."

Hakubamatsu's bland voice surprised Hojo Hatsuho.

Although she had accepted her fate after hearing what Yamato Gansuke said before, she still felt unwilling in her heart.

She always had a feeling that it was not her fault.

However, Bai Masong's words at this time made Hojo Hatsuho slowly dispel that feeling.

"What about the second secret room?"

Hojo Hatsuho leaned against the stove and asked softly,

"Do you know how I made my second secret chamber?"

After Baimasong solved the mystery of the first footprint, she seemed to feel inexplicably relieved and relaxed.

The feeling she has now is as if she is comparing and competing.

It's the mentality of a person who sets a question, sets a clever question, and then wants people to solve it.

Bai Masong understands and knows this very well.

Because he has encountered too many prisoners like this, and in the world of science, people like this can be found everywhere.

It’s as if everyone in this world has a brain full of criminal schemes. This brain is not activated at ordinary times, but when the time comes, they can design very good criminal schemes.

"Your design for the second secret room is more sophisticated than the first one."

Bai Masong first "commented" on Hojo Hatsuho's trick, and then said lightly,

"But your design of the secret room still has a big flaw."

"That's because there are too many unnecessary things in your design."

"Although these things seem useful, if someone is attentive and observes more, they will find something wrong with them."

Listening to Bai Ma Song's words, Hojo Hatsuho's face became a little gloomy. She sighed and said helplessly,

"There's no other way. This is the only method I can think of."

Alas! My talent is limited!

Looking at the two people in front of him, one commenting and the other sighing, Yamato Gansuke's mouth twitched and black lines appeared on his forehead.

No, what are you two up to?

You, a policeman and a criminal, how come you are discussing the crime room?

Do you want me to move a table for you and give you two more bottles of sake?

Hakuba Matsu didn't know what Yamato Gansuke was thinking, and Hojo Hatsuho didn't pay any attention to him.

I only heard Bai Masong continue to speak indifferently,

"Your method is actually not that difficult. You should first use that samurai sword to penetrate the wall of the audio-visual room."

"Because the door of the audio-visual room opens outwards, when the door is closed, the handle of the samurai sword will slowly push against the door bolt, and then when the door is closed, the handle of the samurai sword will naturally push all the door bolts in."

"In this way, the person is outside, but the door can be locked."

"And later, when we found the door was locked and tried to break in, the huge impact would knock the katana off and make it fall to the ground."

"That way, no trace will be left."

......

After friendly communication with Bai Masong, Hojo Hatsuho was convinced, and then she took out the evidence she had hidden from the stove on her own initiative.

To Yamato Gansuke's surprise, in addition to a bloody piece of clothing, there was also a pair of bloodstained socks.

This pair of socks was the pair of cotton socks that were originally offered by Ryuko Daimon in the side room. The reason they were here was because when Hojo Hatsuho killed someone last night, she accidentally stepped on the broken wine glass on the floor.

However, she had to put on the armor there again, so in order to avoid blood stains on the armor, she put on a pair of cotton socks.

After presenting the evidence, Hojo Hatsuho also told Hakuba Matsu and Yamato Gansuke about her motive for the crime.

In fact, this motive is indeed related to Genichirō Daimon’s previous tough and even ruthless business style.

One of the companies that Genichirō Daimon bankrupted happened to be owned by Hojo Hatsuho. Because of the bankruptcy of the company, Hojo Hatsuho's father committed suicide.

In addition, during the period of repaying the debt, her father also mortgaged the family collection of armor to Genichirō Daimon, which led Hojo Hatsuho to firmly believe that Genichirō Daimon was coveting their family's armor and that was why he bankrupted their family's business.

So, she changed her name and sneaked into the Damen family, just to be able to kill her enemy with her own hands one day.

As for Kazuki Daimon, he was killed together with Hatsuho Hojo because he interfered with Genichirō Daimon's business.

It was a very "scientific" motive for committing the crime. Bai Masong did not want to delve into who was right or wrong. The behavior of both parties actually just depended on the degree of extremism of both sides.

In this way, Hojo Hatsuho was taken away by Yamato Gansuke and the case was successfully closed.

The families of Hakuba Matsu and Maori Kogoro felt embarrassed to stay in the Daimon family any longer, so they went out and randomly found a hotel, stayed there for one night, and returned to Tokyo after the snow on the road melted.
