Chapter 3884 The biggest suspect
"Please wait! That's impossible, right?"
Tokuro Ashizuka found something unreasonable, "Yue Mei was alive before 3 a.m. today. We were about to observe silence for our friends who died three years ago. Eiko called Yue Mei..."
As he said that, Tokusa Ashizuka looked at Chi Feichi and Conan, "Mr. Chi and this little brother were also present at that time, right?!"
Chi Feichi, Conan nodded when he saw Memu Thirteen.
“That’s right…”
"And when we saw Yue Mei's body on the cliff was around five o'clock in the morning," Ashizuka Tokura took out the topographic map of Yunmaruyama from his pocket, opened the topographic map and put it on the table. "That is to say, the crime was only two hours, but it takes about forty minutes to walk the mountain road here to the crime scene. If you go up the mountain, it will take more time, probably..."
"About an hour!" Conan saw that Memu Shisan and others looked at him, and said in a affirmative tone, "The time we found Miss Yue Mei's body was 5:05 in the morning. Brother Chi and I arrived at the bottom of the cliff by ropes about forty minutes. Mr. Linda and Mr. Ashizuka arrived at the scene, and we returned to the cliff. Brother Chi and I arrived at the top of the cliff by ropes for an hour. Police Officer Memu and everyone arrived here. In other words, it would take at least forty minutes to get down from here to the campsite, and it would take an hour to get from the campsite at the foot of the mountain."
"That's right, if the prisoner is on the mountain at the beginning, then it will take 4 or 50 minutes to go down the mountain to kill Yue Mei. Then throw his backpack into the forest three kilometers away, which will take at least half an hour," Ashizuka Tokuno reached out to move on the topographic map. "In the end, the prisoner will return to the cliff and take another hour, and it will take more than two hours!"
"But if you use ropes to move up and down between the cliffs like Brother Chi, two hours of crime will be enough?" Memu Shisan looked at the topographic map and made a serious assumption, "It doesn't even take two hours. It takes about thirty to forty minutes to throw your backpack into the forest three kilometers away. With twenty minutes of going up and down the cliff, you can complete the crime and return in almost an hour..."
"But, we don't have such rope tools," Ashizuka Tokuro said the key. "There are indeed ropes for climbing in the warehouse, but we don't have the electric machine that can quickly retract and place ropes. If you climb down with a rope to kill people, you have to pull the rope up from the bottom of the cliff. Rock climbing tests physical strength. The higher the climb, the more physical strength it will consume and the longer it takes. The speed of climbing this cliff will not be faster than walking on the mountain road. It is impossible to get up without an hour..."
"Also, when Mr. Chi used a rope to go down the cliff, he almost pulled the rope to dive down the cliff. The falling speed was close to the speed of falling off the cliff," Chikou Rongzi said softly, looking at Chi Feichi, with a hint of weirdness, as if he was looking at some human-shaped monster. "Every time he was about to hit a rock raised on the cliff, he would use his feet to leverage the force to swing him and his little brother's body for a while. This requires a very strong reaction speed and explosive power, which is definitely not something that ordinary people can do. Once they are rushing, they will rush onto the rocks and rush him and his little brother's body for a while. This requires a very strong reaction speed and explosive power. It is definitely not something that ordinary people can do.
When I went down, I hit a raised rock, which would be dangerous. Therefore, even if I climbed rocks all year round, I would not dare to dive directly like him. Moreover, when Mr. Chi approached the bottom of the cliff, he used the machine to slowly tighten the ropes to avoid falling directly from the bottom of the cliff. If there was no such precise rope retraction and relocation machine, it would be difficult to land safely by rushing off the cliff with that dangerous method... It only took half a minute for Mr. Chi to use the ropes from the cliff to go down, but it is difficult for ordinary people to reach this speed..."
"If ordinary people want to use ropes, do they need to grab the rope with their hands and climb down little by little?" Takagi Shi raised his hands and gestured to grab the rope and climb down. "Is there any faster way?"
Taro Linda thought for a while, "If you are agile rock climbing master, you may be able to wear gloves, grab the rope and slide down, and settle on the protruding rock in the middle, which will probably be faster. However, this is just my idea. It may be difficult to realize it, and it is not accurate to use it."
"Who can tell me that if anyone can go to the under the cliff to commit the crime within two hours and return in time," Ashizuka Tokusa looked at Chi Feichi with a hesitation, and muttered in a gentle voice, "It's only Mr. Chi?"
Chi Feichi: "..."
(_)
What? He has become the biggest suspect?
After three hours of serious investigation, the suspect was me?
"That's right, Mr. Chi has the ability to go back and forth in two hours, not even two hours. With his ability, one hour... no, about half an hour is enough," Subaru Okayama held his chin with his right hand, and made a serious thought, and said in a hurry, "But he didn't know Miss Yue Mei before. When we arrived at the wooden house yesterday, he didn't talk to Miss Yue Mei. For Miss Yue Mei, he was a stranger who didn't know his origin and was uncertain about his personality. When he found that he suddenly visited, Miss Yue Mei should have walked out of the tent without warning and talked to him close. Moreover, from three in the morning to four in the morning, Mr. Chi and us were sleeping in the room. I slept very lightly. If he left the room halfway, I should have noticed it. After four in the morning, the children woke up one after another. Everyone chatted in the room for a while before going out to wash. During this period, Mr. Chi was always with us."
"We are the same, from 3:00 to 5:00 in the morning, we are all here..." Tokusa Ashizuka paused and looked at Taro Linda, with a trace of suspicion flashing in his eyes, "No... it should be said that it was me, Eiko. This morning, after we mourned our friends together, I returned to the room to sleep. Eiko took the little sister who was scared by the nightmare to sleep in her room, but Linda left by herself..."
When Taro Linda saw the others looking at him, he quickly explained, "I'm going to the opposite mountain to observe!"
While everyone was talking, Conan answered a call from the side and quickly raised his voice and shouted, "Brother Chi, Officer Chiba helped buy the balloons and inflatable tanks. He has now delivered the things to the bottom of the cliff!"
Chi Feichi walked to the edge of the cliff, stuck the hook claws on the stone, turned on the switch of the rope retractor, and threw the rope retractor down the cliff.
After the rope retrieval machine is started, the rope continues to pop out from the rope outlet and hangs a long rope along the cliff.
Conan walked to Chi Feichi with his cell phone and directed Chiba and Shan on the other end of the phone. "Official Chiba, you tie the box and the inflatable tank with a rope, and then press the green button above the machine, the rope will automatically shrink and pull the thing up... Remember to tie the thing up a little more..."
"Wait, wait a moment!" Memu Shisan was confused, "What balloons and inflatable tanks? Why did Chiba buy these?"
He is the person in charge of this case, right?
What did these people do without him?
When the three children saw Chi Feichi, Conan was busy receiving balloons and inflatable tanks and actively helped to answer.
"That's the balloon that needs to be used to solve the case!"
"Brother Chi said he already knows who the prisoner is..."
"Conan also knows..."
Haibara Ai added, "Before you arrived here, they had already gone to the warehouse. They checked around the wooden house and took a lot of photos."
"There were some observation balloons in the warehouse, which were prepared by Mr. Linda for meteorological observation," Subaru Okiya narrowed his eyes and looked at Taro Linda. "He prepared the amount for ten days, which is ten balloons, and planned to release one every day. He had already released one yesterday. There should be nine balloons left in the warehouse, but when we went to the warehouse to check, there were only three unused balloons left in the warehouse cardboard box."
Taro Linda looked surprised, "What, why...?"
"Also, the inflatable tank used to inflatrate the balloons was leaning against the exterior wall of the warehouse," Haibara Ai continued. "When we saw the inflatable tank, we found that the bottom of the inflatable tank was covered with damp soil. When Mr. Linda used the inflatable tank yesterday, there was no such soil at the bottom of the inflatable tank."
"Then we found the woods over there," Mitsuhiko pointed to the woods next to the wooden house and said seriously, "I found traces of inflatable tanks placed on the ground..."
"There are traces of ropes tied to the trunk of a tree next to it!" Yuan Tai said.
"Balloon, inflatable tank, rope..." Memu Shisan sorted out his mind and found that he had no idea. He looked at Chi Feichi who was returning with a box speechless look, "Brother Chi, what's going on?"
"I'll just talk about the prisoner's method. First of all, the prisoner was indeed someone who was known to the deceased Miss Yamakura, and lived in this wooden house with others last night," Chi Feichi placed the inflatable tank on the ground. "Before three in the morning today, the prisoner filled six balloons with the inflatable tank. Of course, in order to prevent people from hearing the noise, the prisoner brought the balloons and the inflatable tank to the woods for inflatable. After that, the prisoner tied the inflatable balloons to the trunk of the tree, took the inflatable tank back to the wooden house, secretly returned to the room, met with the others at 3 in the morning, and went to watch silently for Yuanmu who died three years ago..."
Conan opened the box, took out an uninflatable balloon and handed it to Chi Feichi. "After the silence, the prisoner pretended to return to the room, but in fact, he secretly left the wooden house while everyone was not paying attention, and went to the woods to pick up the six balloons, tied the balloons to their arms, and jumped off the cliff..."
Yuanta widened his eyes, "Is the prisoner really using balloons to fly?"
"This is impossible," Taro Linda frowned. "A balloon can only carry 5 or 6 kilograms. Six balloons can fly up to 36 kilograms. With the weight of an adult, there is absolutely no way to fly by six balloons!"
