Being in Detective Conan, being officially part of the organization is just too awesome!

Chapter 361 Gin gives a live demonstration to police officers on how to solve cases...

Gin's words essentially gave the investigation a clear direction.

Upon hearing this, everyone around was stunned.

The three members of the red team all frowned.

They could grasp the first point, but regarding the second point, they could only understand half of it...

"Mr. Kurosawa,"

Ayanokoji Fumimaro, who was acting as everyone's mouth double, looked at Gin with some surprise.

"You mean the murderer was an acquaintance of Mr. Sakura Seizo, and after killing him, he threw the murder weapon into the Kamo River?"

"How did you know?"

"Stop talking nonsense and just do it."

Gin, too lazy to explain, said coldly.

He's not one of those detectives who have some strange desire to show off and insist on rambling on about all their thoughts.

In his view, such behavior was not only strange, but also foolish.

If the murderer were even slightly rational, they would probably have escaped long ago while you were rambling on...

"Mr. Yin,"

Sonoko Suzuki then played her role again.

She blinked her big eyes and said to Gin with a blank expression,

"I want to know too."

Gin wanted to refuse again firmly, since he wasn't a translator's tool.

However, the thought that Sonoko Suzuki held her secret made her hesitate.

With Bourbon still here, it's really not appropriate to let this shameful thing leak out...

I'll only say it once.

Gin had no choice but to speak with a dark expression and a hint of helplessness in his voice.

"First of all, the deceased claimed he was going to sleep, but this is not his bedroom. It is obvious that he had arranged to meet someone here."

"Secondly, there was a large amount of splattered blood in front of him, without any attempt to cover it up, and there was no extra blood at the doorway or other locations."

"This means the deceased was attacked from behind and killed instantly with a single stab."

"Combining these two points is enough to prove that the murderer must have been someone the victim knew well, someone so well that even if the victim had exposed his back to the murderer, he wouldn't have thought there was anything wrong with it."

“This person might even be hiding on our dinner table.”

Gin's expression remained completely unchanged as he said this.

However, everyone still unconsciously looked in a certain direction.

Standing there was Saijo Taiga, the only one of Sakura Masazo's friends who had come along...

Saijo Taiga remained calm, appearing completely innocent.

Gin didn't pause, continuing to speak coldly.

"As for the second point, it is a very simple logical reasoning."

"The murderer was an acquaintance of the deceased, making him an easy suspect to investigate. Unless he was a political figure, it was impossible for him to have the murder weapon on him."

"And inside the room, this strip... The police said they didn't find the murder weapon, which means he must have put it somewhere else."

As Gin spoke, he looked out the window.

This room, or rather the entire place where they had their meal, was built along the Kamo River, with the river flowing right outside the window.

"At present, the first thing a normal person would think of is to throw the murder weapon into the river."

"I see!"

Ayanokoji Fumimaro nodded in sudden realization.

He naturally adapted to Inspector Megure's role, taking on the role of the straight man and respectfully seeking his guidance.

"Then, Mr. Kurosawa, why did you tell us to focus our search on the downstream area?"

"If we follow the general understanding, shouldn't we focus our search on this area of ​​water?"

"hehe,"

Gin gave a disdainful, cold laugh, a hint of contempt in his eyes.

"Don't assume the murderer has your level of intelligence."

Ayanokouji Fumimaro was not annoyed at all by Gin's sarcastic remarks.

He knew that Mr. Kurosawa was an upright man, a man who had transcended vulgar interests, and who was wholeheartedly committed to the safety of the nation and the order of society.

Mr. Kurosawa's sarcastic remarks at this moment are actually a unique teaching method of this master.

Using such a strong tone can help one grow faster, and it can also be used to assess oneself.

If he were to truly fly into a rage, then Mr. Kurosawa would likely be unwilling to continue offering him guidance.

With this in mind, Ayanokouji Fumimaro became even more respectful and bowed to Gin once more.

"Please enlighten me, Mr. Kurosawa."

"......"

Gin, seeing what Ayanokouji Fumimaro was doing, was at a loss for words.

He was becoming increasingly certain that all Japanese police officers were mentally unstable, and that this Kyoto police officer, Ayanokoji, was highly likely to have masochistic tendencies...

"You can think about it: why would the murderer throw the murder weapon into the water?"

When Gin realized that the police officer was mentally ill, his tone softened slightly, though it remained cold.

Ayanokouji Fumimaro paused slightly, but without much thought, immediately replied.

"Of course, it's because the murderer wanted to hide the murder weapon."

"Since you want to hide the murder weapon, you naturally don't want the police to find it,"

Gin continued speaking,

"If you just casually throw a knife into the water, once you realize what's happening, you'll immediately send out the search team to search this area."

"The knife is in the water. Although it may move over time, it shouldn't take you long to react and you'll still be able to find it."

"Therefore, any murderer with even a slightly normal IQ should understand that the best way is to make the knife disappear far away, so that it cannot reappear for a while."

"There's a stream here, so as long as we let the murder weapon float away with the water, it would be the safest thing to do."

That's it!

After hearing Gin's words, Conan and the other three members of the Red Team suddenly felt enlightened.

Yes, the murderer didn't want the murder weapon to be found, so naturally they would send it far away...

Ayanokoji Fumimaro scratched his head in embarrassment.

To be honest, if Mr. Kurosawa hadn't reminded him, he might not have realized for a while that the murder weapon had been thrown into the Kamo River...

Of course, Japanese police officers all share one trait: they get over their emotions very quickly.

Ayanokoji Fumimaro immediately adjusted his mindset and continued to seek guidance.

"Then, Mr. Kurosawa, how would the murderer have made the murder weapon float away with the water?"

"What killed Mr. Sakura was probably a dagger-like weapon, something that couldn't float on water..."

"idiot,"

Gin spoke again, coldly.

He's given me so much hints, and this guy still doesn't know? He's hopeless.

"Humph!"

Gin snorted coldly, feeling Sonoko Suzuki's eager gaze beside him. After a moment's consideration, he decided to offer another suggestion.

"The dagger will sink; couldn't he find something to put it in?"

"For example, if you use a Coke bottle with a wide opening, or other large-capacity hollow objects, do you really need me to teach you junior high physics?"
