177 The first crime scene
"When we came in, we found that the female ghost was very abnormal. After looking carefully, we found that there was a corpse on it." Shangchuan Shun held his glasses and looked at the staff behind him who had gathered here because of calling the police.
There are not many staff members in the haunted house, and there are only three dead people, and there is also a young and well-known haunted house manager.
When the three of them learned about the body, their faces were different, and their emotions were intertwined, such as suspicion, shock, confusion, and disbelief, intertwined on their faces, making it difficult to distinguish between authenticity.
I have to say that the acting and psychological qualities of the murderers of Conan are quite high. Before the truth is revealed, you can't find the murderer at all when you look at their expressions. Maybe this is the fun of the reasoning episode?
"Is this Xiaolian?" The person in charge of the haunted house couldn't believe it.
"Yazaki is dead?!" The staff member who was also a woman was also quite shocked.
"I saw Miyazaki all the morning, and I thought she had asked for leave today." The last man was short and thin, and his eyes looked strange when he looked at the other two.
Mikawa Shin looked at their various reactions quietly, and turned to look at the corpse that was put down by the police. The deceased was named Yazaki Ren, a woman, who was about 1.6 meters tall. After lifting her hair, she had a pretty good face, but her face was bluish and purple, her eyes were protruding from her pupils and her tongue was stretched out into purple-black, and her expression was very painful.
Yuanzi was still a little curious about the body, but he didn't dare to look at it again after just one look.
There were two obvious strangles on the neck of the deceased, one of which was much thinner, and it should have been strangled to death with a rope such as steel wire while it was unprepared. The other strangles were relatively thick, and the marks were deeper due to the long-term hanging. Moreover, there were obvious scratches on the deceased's neck, as if it was suddenly strangled from behind, and the deceased grabbed the rope and struggled violently. There were some red marks on the neck, which did not look like blood, but rather like nail polish rubbed on it.
Shangchuan Shun looked at the deceased's hand again. There were indeed two deep marks on the palm of her hand, which were struck by the rope in desperation. Her fingernails were quite long, and the bright red color on them should have been applied by herself. Some of them were not well applied, and there were also a lot of skin next to the nails. The deceased's nails had traces of mottled marks on the nails. They should have been applied with one hand first, then dried before applying them.
A picture of the dead man applying nail polish on his face appeared in his mind, and was quietly strangled from behind with a rope. The undry nail polish on his neck while struggling.
Is this preparation before work when applying nail polish?
"The deceased has died for 2-3 hours. It is now past 11 o'clock. The estimated death time should be between 8 and 9 o'clock in the morning." Junji Tsumamoto examined the body and gave a relatively accurate death time.
Other forensic personnel searched the surrounding traces, "The first crime scene was not here. The deceased should have been strangled to death somewhere and moved here."
"Go and check other places in the haunted house." Police Officer Megu ordered.
"yes!"
Junji Tsukamoto continued to inspect the body. As a forensic professional, he was naturally quite professional. She lifted the wide sleeves of the deceased's clothes, and her two arms, which seemed to be painted with white paint, were exposed. The white paint only brushed to the elbows, and it was not evenly.
Huokawa asked the young haunted house manager, "How are your work divided? Have you always been the deceased played female ghosts? Is there any surveillance in the haunted house?"
If Conan is not here, he can only use his brain to restore the truth. He originally would not interfere with the police after calling the police according to his personality, but perhaps he was infected with the strange problem of detectives, or the desire for knowledge and curiosity to who the murderer was when playing detective games.
"Miyagawa Shizuo's job is to maintain and guide tourists in the haunted house. Saori Hiraoka's main job is to receive tourists and do some other miscellaneous work. Xiaolian came here for about a month, mainly to pretend to be a ghost." The person in charge was Masaki Takeshita. His attitude towards the deceased was different from the other two, and even the name was Xiaolian, who was more intimate.
"There is no surveillance inside the haunted house, only the entrance and exit are installed in the garden."
"Is this what the female ghost dress is like?" Kurakawa Shun continued to ask.
Looking at Kamikawa Shun's serious attitude, Officer Memu was somewhat expecting Kamikawa Shun to solve the case as soon as possible. In the past, when there were gross profits, although there were always cases, the case was solved quite quickly.
He looked at Yuanzi standing next to him again. Yuanzi also helped the police solve some cases. These two people should be solved soon in this case.
"Yes." Takeshita Masaki nodded, "The long hair covering his face, white skirts like sand, pale arms, and scary red nails are all dresses that need to be used to dress up as a female ghost. However, after preparation, they are usually fixed on the waist with a rope, and the machine above leads people to move with people, creating the illusion of "ghost" floating."
"Can your device move up and down?" Shangchuan Shin looked at the machine rollers on the ceiling above. These things were completely invisible when they were dim inside. At this time, the interior was bright, and the ceiling was covered with modern industrial things, and there was no longer the atmosphere that was originally when they came in.
"Yes, but moving up and down requires people to control the rope to retract and place it."
"That's it..." Shangkawa nodded and observed the running trajectory of the device above. This thing is a bit like a semi-automatic weapon, which can lift people in mid-air, with an S-shaped track on the top, and the load-bearing device can move on the track by itself.
It is a semi-automatic device that can be set up by one person.
"Officer Meguro, let's go to the rest room where they were changing their clothes and preparing for their preparation."
"Okay." Officer Memu nodded and came to the rest room with Katsukawa Shun and the garden that followed him.
The rest room was quite neat, obviously someone had been cleaned up, and there was a set of ladies' clothes on the sofa next to it. It was probably the deceased who had replaced it here. Shangchuan Shun looked around, then his eyes were on the table against the wall, with cosmetics on the table and bottles of nail polish on it, and a mirror on the wall.
There is no red in the nail polish, or the red bottle is gone.
"This should be the first crime scene."
"I'll call someone to check it out right away!"
In his mind, Kurakawa Shun reappeared the deceased's head lowered his head and carefully applied his nails. Then the murderer quietly walked behind her. Even though there was a mirror, the deceased did not notice because he was seriously applying nail polish.
By the time I discovered it, my neck might have been strangled by a rope.
