Chapter 345

"Because the time taken for the cable car to pass through the tunnel is only 30 seconds. Even if the killer really has help, it is impossible to transfer the victim from the carriage to the tunnel and then move from the tunnel to the palm of the statue of heaven in 30 seconds."

Conan's reason was very sufficient and was recognized by police officer Henggou and others. After all, the victim was staying in the carriage suspended in the air at that time. Even if he had help, it was difficult to do such a thing.

Maori Kogoro, who was denied face, stared at Conan angrily. After thinking carefully for a while, he suddenly brightened his eyes and asked Yoshino Linghua: "Miss Linghua, is there anything special in the tunnel? Such as the elevator that can lead to the prospect platform."

"There is absolutely no such thing."

Yoshino ayahana shook her head slightly and then added: "of course, during our renovation, we did use a staircase from the prospect platform to the tunnel as a passage."

Maori xiaowulang was overjoyed and hastily judged: "that's the channel. The murderer must have used it to commit murder."

Yoshino Aya's face showed a confused expression and questioned: "however, Mr. Maori, it takes at least three minutes to walk from the tunnel to the prospect platform, even if an adult man runs..."

"What? It takes three minutes?"

Maori Kogoro was stunned and muttered: "wait a minute, from the time of power failure in the empty cable car to the time when rongzao tangben found the corpse in the hand of tiannv, it would be at most 30 seconds, if it had to take three minutes..."

"No, I think it should take more time."

Pointed chin reporter Machida Xiu came over and interrupted: "think about it, how could rongzao tangben be obedient if he was caught? In this way, he must have been killed immediately by the murderer, that is to say, the murderer must carry the body and rush from the tunnel to the prospect platform. The three minute journey should be at least six minutes."

"This is the scourge!"

Before Maori Kogoro and others could figure it out, old lady Shenshan Jing suddenly appeared on the prospect platform, pointed to Tang benrongzao's body and shouted: "this stubborn guy, the reason why he will be corpsed under the Ruyi pearl of the goddess statue this time is like the scourge that Tang benrongzao suffered after pursuing money and power!"

After hearing the old woman's words, Maori xiaowulang and others were awed. They looked up at the solemn and holy statue of the goddess of heaven, and involuntarily gave birth to a sense of awe.

But Baiyan Zhenyu, who knew the truth, didn't feel like this, because he knew it wasn't a curse at all. Rongzao tangben hid in the cabinet under the carriage bench at that time, but he didn't know what happened later, so he let his body appear here.

In other words, the key to solving this case was how the murderer saw his body and moved here after killing rongzao tangben within 15 minutes from the top of the mountain to the prospect platform.

"Officer Henggou, the autopsy results have come out."

A police officer with an inspection record came over and reported: "the cause of death was the short knife directly inserted into the victim's chest. It can almost be said that it was a knife. No fingerprints and palmprints can be found from the short knife. As for the estimated time of death, it should be what happened immediately after the dead disappeared from the empty cable car."

After hearing the report, officer Henggou ordered, "well, from now on, no one is allowed to enter the murder scene. As for the old lady over there, please wait at the foot of the mountain."

"Yes, I'll arrange it now." the policeman answered and acted according to the order of officer Henggou.

At this time, Conan suddenly saw a small house at the foot of the mountain under the prospect platform, and the chimney there was still smoking. He asked curiously, "Uncle baoze, what is the cabin below?"

After taking a look, Tang benbao replied, "it was a temporary rest room for workers when the tunnel was dug. It was originally planned to be demolished tomorrow."

"Conan, come here, I'll tell you..." Baiyan Zhenyu pulled Conan to his side and whispered to Conan what happened when rongzao tangben was hiding under the carriage bench.

"What?!" Conan was shocked. After touching his chin and thinking for a while, he suddenly seemed to figure out what the key link was, and immediately ran to the temporary lounge at the foot of the mountain.

"Conan, where are you going?" after Conan ran away for a while, Xiao Lan found out about it and immediately followed him to avoid Conan's danger.

After Xiao Lan left, officer Henggou showed an evidence bag to Tang benbao and asked, "Mr. Tang benbao, there is something you want to confirm. Have you seen this knife?"

Tang benbao looked carefully, nodded and replied, "yes, this is one of my father's swords."

"In that case, the knife was stolen in advance," officer Henggou took back the evidence bag and then asked, "does your father usually keep it strictly?"

"No," Tang benbao shook his head and replied, "as long as you take out the knife, anyone can do it. A question is much more important than this..."

However, as soon as he said this, Tang benbao seemed to think of some concerns, and his voice suddenly stopped.

"What's the matter?" officer Henggou asked

"No, in fact, it's not that important..." Tang benbao hesitated to explain, then lowered his head and shut up.

Officer Henggou didn't ask any more. He called the crowd together and said: "In short, Mr. tomoto was attacked by an unknown person in the empty cable car and disappeared. A note was pasted on the window. From these two points of view, we can only say that the murderer is probably among you now. From the motive of killing, if anyone can achieve greater benefits than others after Mr. tomoto's death, it should be him."

Tang benbao frowned and asked, "if you mean the legacy left by my father, it's our three brothers and sisters. Do you suspect that the murderer is us?"

"No, brother, if you say interest, it should be you."

Tomoto Chunping leaned against the railing and gloated, "you have the priority of inheritance. At least your father has said in advance that you should inherit the tourism company. If your father has an accident, you can successfully inherit the cause of tomoto tourism, so you are the most likely person."
