Chapter 16 The Murderer

Well, another problem arises, what does the key have to do with the dismemberment?

In fact, Mrs. Marple had proposed an assumption before, that is, the reason why the murderer wanted to dismember the young lady in the house was to hide some clues.

But afterwards, everyone put together the resentment house and found that there was not much or little body.

So, this idea was put on hold

However, this is not the case. There are really few things on the body of the resentment house, but the thing is too small, so no one notices it.

And this thing is nails.

Oh, the ‘nails’ here are not the nails on our fingers. After all, if the nails are pried, they will never be discovered. What is lost here is a kind of ‘fake nails’ that only women will understand.

It’s the kind of thing that is often made in small shops with the two-character signatures on the streets and alleys.

The thing is a very thin layer, covering the surface of the girl's real nails, making them look more beautiful and shiny. You can even put some shiny decorations on it.

The materials used for this manicure are generally made of silicon crystal plastic, or simply a layer of resin with glue.

Of course, the young lady in the house definitely does not have this kind of cheap thing on her manicure. She uses a kind of thing that you know is very coquettish polyacrylic sticky powder as long as you hear the name!

Well, just talking about this name, no one knows what this thing is for, in fact, this thing is very common in our lives.

This thing is for tits blocking

Yes, if your teeth have a big hole, you have to go to the dental clinic to plug the hole. When you open your mouth, the doctor is stirring it next to you, and this is the thing.

Its characteristics are very strange. First of all, this thing is particularly thin and very sticky. If you stir it with water, it will become a kind of "smooth", and after contacting the air for a while, it will become extremely hard.

Secondly, this thing is very bright, well——it's like the brightness of teeth, nails, and the "porcelain teeth" that people usually make. Of course, in addition to this thing, there are many nickel-chromium alloys, but this also shows that its color and texture are similar to our teeth or nails and theirs, and even better technology can be achieved to the point where it cannot be seen with the naked eye.

And the last point, and the most critical point, is that this thing will melt at a high temperature of about 300 degrees.

As I said before, the young lady in the house is a killer. As a killer, she is inevitably in and out of some security and strict places. This kind of place not only has metal detectors, body searches, and all-round X-ray scanning. Even if you go in, you may not even be allowed to wear clothes.

In this case, the house of grudges can still carry weapons in. After all, those security personnel will not even let their fingernails be brought, right?

The outside of the 10 fingernails (even toenails) in the house are all covered by this kind of thing. Usually, it looks nothing like the nails. However, if you rely on the fire, pinch it, and then hang it for a few seconds, this thing can become any shape you want to make it become. Although the amount is not too large, it is still enough to pinch it into an awl that can pierce the human artery, or a sharp weapon as big as a shaving blade.

So when it comes to this, everyone probably thought about where the key to the bedroom of the resentment house was found.

Yes, it is also very easy to use this thing as long as you have a model, and you can make the same key as the craftsmanship of the house.

In fact, Ziliang did not say so completely. He just said to the other two people, "The fingernails in the house of grudges have become shorter." This simple reminder, and Mrs. Marple and Moriarty immediately thought of this possibility.

"Didn't it?" Marple said with a frown

"Yes, there are two keys in the room of the resentment house. One of them was thrown at the crime scene, and the other one should still be on the murderer if I guessed correctly," Ziliang said.

"Well, that's interesting." Marple took over the topic again. "So can you guess it's more bold. That person named Sherlock not only has the key to the bedroom of the house, but also has the key to the bedroom of all of us. In other words, this behavior in his bedroom is not safe from the beginning."

"No, no, no," Ziliang said again, "I didn't say that Sherlock is the culprit of all this. Still remember I said that when I moved the bucket, I found that a trash can was cleaned and that trash can was not moved out in Sherlock's room!"

In fact, before saying this, Marple and Moriarty had already noticed something, because they saw that Ziliang did not walk into Sherlock's room. The room he went to was

"Yes, the murderer who killed the resentful house was not Sherlock! But--" Ziliang said, then stretched out his hand and pointed at the murderer.

The murderer was [Kudo Shinichi] who was hung on the Christmas tree and had been killed!

"And, if I was not wrong, now, there must be the room key made of [polyacrylic sticky powder] hidden in his pocket!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Moriarty had already walked to Kudo Shinichi's body and searched. Finally, he took out a piece of hard solid that had been completely unformed from his school uniform and shirt pocket that had not had time to burn.

"Well, it seems that this thing is it, but it has completely melted in the high temperature just now," Moriarty said lightly.

At this time, Mrs. Marple interrupted, "But if this is the case, then the one who killed Kindaichi is the resentment house, and the one who killed Kudo Shinichi is the resentment house, and the one who killed Kudo Shinichi is the Shylock, so why, why do they have to murder each other? Moreover, they have to come up with such a complicated method. If the person who was killed is really the murderer of the previous one, then those who discovered it can tell others about these things. How can they do this?"

As soon as she said this, Marple suddenly stopped, and she obviously thought of something.

"Yes, it's like the beginning, this is a fight of trapped beasts. We have to find the last murderer and then murder him, and we can't be discovered by others, otherwise we will be the next target!"

(I finally made it up, so the next one, how did Sherlock fly? Oh, dig a hole and jump by yourself)
