Chapter Seventeen I want to talk to you

"It was because Tanaka was attacked, and we found the thrown crossbow arrows in the snow outside." Arachie briefly introduced the situation just now: "Tanaka and Yuanzi were both frightened."

"Yes, that Shadow Master is a madman." Seeing the familiar and very secure feeling, the most trustworthy police officer Matsuda, the police officer of the Metropolitan Police Department, was braver and spoke fiercely: "When I was in the bathroom, he was shot by him with an arrow. Police officer Matsuda must catch him and give him a good look."

"Bird?" Matsuda said thoughtfully: "Can I let me take a look? Well, wait a minute, I haven't finished asking yet. The deceased, no, can you tell me the specific situation when Mr. Hamano's body was discovered?"

"Didn't Officer Matsuda see the situation of Mr. Hamano?" Tanaka said coldly: "What else can I say."

"Of course there is." Matsuda thought that he didn't hear Tanaka's displeasure: "For example, who did Hamano be with before lying in the cold and snowy land, and what he said, these are clues."

"Mr. Hamano is alone in his room." Yuanko lowered her head and said, "The reason is because of me, and it's all my fault..."

After listening to Yuanko crying and talking, Matsuda understood what happened. A magic show made Hamano the party minister, and then he went back to the house alone until someone found his body.

Magic? Matsuda pondered: "What kind of magic?" No matter what, the magic that left him out of the small group has problems. As long as you figure out the behind the magic, you will understand the purpose of the prisoner and even find the prisoner.

"Miss Tanaka wrote down our names on the paper, and then I blindfolded my eyes and made marks. Finally, Mr. Hamano guessed whose name was behind each mark." Yuanko said depressedly: "If it weren't for me choosing Mr. Hamano..." Judging from the dry tears on her face, it was obvious that she had cried for this matter.

"Don't blame yourself, because you are not sure that the prisoner's target is Hamano. No matter who you choose, this kind of thing may happen. Miss Tanaka just encountered an attack?" Matsuda comforted Yuanzi and then asked, "Since Hamano is leading this magic, then it's his proposal?"

After receiving a positive answer, Matsuda slowly grasped the veins. Are there only two people who were blindfolded Yuanzi and Tanaka who were exposed to the paper?

"What to say," Doita suddenly said at this time: "Mr. Hamano's magic finally had a problem. He originally said that the party minister was me, but the note was his name, so he was still very confused about this."

Doi Tower? This person is really not simple. Has he seen the trick of this magic long ago? It is different from those half-baked so-called lovers. I noticed that Matsuda looked at him and Doi Tower smiled like a simple smile.

"I understand the basic situation, now, who is he? Why doesn't anyone think he is Shadow Master?" Matsuda pointed to the tall and thin servant.

"His name is Sukaku Kiyori, and I invited him to help. If I only rely on me for this party, I will be a little too busy." The owner, Ah Yoshino, explained immediately: "I watched him grow up, and he will definitely not be Shadow Master."

Matsuda nodded: "So what are you doing after Hamano returns to the house?"

"Hey, are you doubting us?" Tanaka asked angrily.

"It's not that you doubt you, but that you want to prove your innocence." Matsuda smiled distractedly, and then looked at Tanaka with great meaning: "Some things are well explained."

"I have nothing to say." Tanaka turned his head aside: "I was burning water with firewood."

"I'll go to the warehouse to get red wine." Arachie, who was standing next to Tanaka, saw Matsuda's eyes pointing at him and immediately said.

"Where is Doi Tower?" Matsuda was the first to ask him.

"Miss Kuroda and I are placing the dishes for party in the dining room." Doita looked at Kuroda: "Isn't that wrong? Miss Kuroda."

"Well, I'll go to the kitchen to help Sukaku," said Kuroda.

"Yes, Mr. Huang asked me to prepare some snacks." Sukaru responded immediately.

"After that? Doi Tower, where did you go?" Matsuda asked again.

"After that? I went back to the house and got some biscuits." Doita said with a smile.

"It's basically clear." Matsuda turned around and said to Huang Yize: "Mr. Huang, how long did you take the wine?"

"It's about seven or eight minutes." Huang Yize thought about it and answered.

"It's probably the same time as me." Tanaka noticed that Matsuda looked at him and said immediately.

"Well, does it take that long to get the wine?" Matsuda turned back to Arachie.

"I went back to my room to get the keys because I forgot to replace the warehouse with a new lock," said Huang Yize.

"So, let's go to the warehouse together." Matsuda said and glanced at everyone in the room: "Everyone will go."

"Why do you want to go with you?" Tanaka said dissatisfiedly: "Now, people outside who want to attack us may appear at any time, that madman named Master Yin."

"No, there will be no one outside." Matsuda saw that they didn't believe it: "I can promise as you, at least I went around the outside for three times but found no trace of anyone hiding nearby."

When he walked to the warehouse door, Matsuda saw three locks hanging on the door at a glance: "How come there are so many locks?"

"That's to prevent thieves. There have been thieves here recently, and the most valuable thing here is probably the red wine inside." Huang Yize explained.

"So, where is there?" Matsuda pointed to the side door of the villa: "There are many footprints on the ground."

"It's the back door of the kitchen." Huang Yize said: "I took them here in the afternoon."

"So, go to the boiling place to take a look." Matsuda took a step back and signaled Huang Yi to lead the way.

Seeing that there was no snow on the boiling shed due to steam, I pointed to the window not far from the top of the shed: "Where is the window?"

"That's the corridor on the second floor." Huang Yize said.

"You can reach Hamano's room from there." Matsuda said something.

"Is that?" Tanaka raised his eyebrows: "I went to the bathroom two or three times to check the water temperature. If someone jumped on it at that time, I wouldn't know."

"Can I go and see the crossbow you picked up now?" Matsuda did not go to Watanaka to argue.

When he returned to the villa again, Matsuda played with the crossbow: "I already know the general situation and also locked the scope of the prisoner. What everyone needs to do now is to go back to the house to sleep, and I will talk to the prisoner."

"The murderer is really among us?" Tanaka immediately questioned: "So what's going on with the arrow shot into my house from outside?"

"Yes, and how did Mr. Hamano be moved to the snow?" Miss Kuroda also said.

"You will know these things, but not now." Matsuda spreads his hands: "I just want to talk to her now. Please give me some time and space. I will guarantee you your safety. At the same time, I don't believe that she will be a heinous bad guy."

After sending everyone back to his room, Matsuda did not go up to find the murderer directly, but sat in the living room and waited quietly.

"Squeak" the door was pushed open, and Conan came in from outside: "Where are they?"

"I'm back to the room." Conan Matsuda waved: "I told them that I would go to talk to the prisoner, but if I didn't completely crack her, she would definitely be lucky."

"So you're waiting for me?" Conan's eyes shrank.

"Of course." Matsuda should have said: "You have been here since the beginning, and the situation is more than I know. Since you have achieved something, let's take it out and share it. What method did the prisoner use to make the illusion of attacking outside?"

"You haven't figured it out?" Conan asked.

Matsuda nodded.

"You have nothing to figure it out?" Conan continued.

Matsuda nodded.

"Then why are you sitting here and not going out to find clues?" Conan began to attack.

"Isn't you?" Matsuda's plain counter-attack Conan: "Since you have first-hand information, why should I get frozen? Let me tell me your discovery."

After the knock on the door, Matsuda pushed the door directly into the door.

"I knew the door was not locked, so I came in without permission." Matsuda was polite and sat in front of Tanaka Takahike.

"It seems that Officer Matsuda thinks I am the murderer." Tanaka said calmly, reversing his fierce attitude outside.

Matsuda didn't say anything, but just pulled out an arrow, with a coil of arrows at the end of the arrow.

"What is this?" Tanaka asked knowingly.

"Do I need my explanation for the incredible method of crime?" Matsuda said lightly: "I found it before entering the house."

Then Matsuda told the way of committing the crime this time, including Hamano's magic show, and Conan's deduced method of Tanaka pretending to be someone attacking him outside, all of which were told.

"Can you prove that I did it?" Tanaka didn't panic: "What evidence do you have to prove that everything you said is true, everything you said is done by me?"

"If you ask for evidence, I wouldn't be here." Matsuda looked at Tanaka's eyes and said seriously: "I don't think you are a bad person, nor should you fall into killing people."

"Hey, but now you want to arrest me on the charge of murder." Tanaka sneered.

"Murdering is always a painful thing. If you bear this pain, do you want to be tortured by it all the time?" When it comes to killing, Matsuda's eyes were dim: "This pain should not belong to you."

"I believe this pain will also be passed on to Haluoyve's heart." Matsuda murmured in a low voice: "If he was in heaven."

"I have read the chat records of Nishiyama and I know that you are Haluo Yves' granddaughter." Matsuda's voice was strange: "It's your grandfather himself who decided to perform escape magic. You shouldn't be the kind of person who takes his anger to others."

"Is that? You really believe me." Tanaka lowered his head to Matsuda for the first time: "I know it was grandpa's decision, but I can't tolerate the ruthless mockery of the two of them after grandpa's death."

After admitting his crime and telling the depression that buried his heart, Tanaka raised his head: "You really know how to play the emotional card. If I don't admit it, what can you do?"

"Who knows." Matsuda chuckled, without answering.

It only takes eight minutes to go back and forth, kill people, and deal with the scene. It is impossible for Tanaka to cover everything in such a hurry. As long as the forensic class is carefully investigated, decisive evidence will be found. After all, Tanaka is not a professional person like Matsuda.

"If you hadn't jumped here, maybe my life would have been different." Tanaka looked at Matsuda for the first time: "Thank you, Officer Hot Blood."

If Matsuda was not there and if he had avoided the police investigation, what would his life be like in the future? He would be like walking on thin ice every day and become a trembling little woman? Or a strong woman who can live without guilt after killing two lives one after another?

No matter what, it is impossible to go back to the past. When Tanaka said the three words "Thank you" to Matsuda, maybe she was thinking that this is the best ending.

"In fact, it doesn't matter whether you have me or not. This road is your own choice." Matsuda's eyes crossed Tanaka: "And, it's not just me who saw the truth."

Tanaka turned around and followed Matsuda's gaze and suddenly saw a white light slashing through the night sky.
