Chapter 2239 Strange Things

Now, from the police's perspective, based on the gentleman at the scene, they found an unidentified woman in the hotel room booked by Ohba Satoru in this building, and her attire just happened to be the same as the suspect witnessed by Tatsumi Sakurako, so it was obvious that the other party was very suspicious.

But now, this person who is so suspicious said that he appeared there because he was threatened. Of course, the police would not believe this kind of thing, not to mention...

Threat?

Where is the evidence of the threat?

Inspector Megure was full of confidence in this regard. After finding the woman in the room, he had basically concluded that the murderer was the other party. So at this time, he had to get the other party to confess through confession.

However, since the other party's attitude was so uncooperative, it was understandable that Inspector Megure was angry.

However, even after Inspector Megure questioned her so seriously, Miyano Shiho was obviously not scared by him. After all, Miyano Shiho knew very well that she was certainly not the murderer. In this case, from a factual point of view, she could not admit to a crime she had not committed, nor could she explain the course of the case.

In this way, facing the serious questioning of Inspector Megure, Miyano Shiho simply replied calmly:

"Because the other party threatened me with a gun and threatened to shoot me if I didn't obey his demands. For my own safety, officer... do I have any other choice?"

Miyano Shiho responded to Inspector Megure like this.

After all, as a weak woman, when faced with the threat of gunpoint, do she have any other choice?
Suddenly, after hearing what Miyano Shiho said, Inspector Megure was speechless for a moment, and couldn't think of any words to refute -

Indeed, it can be confirmed that in this incident, the murderer used a pistol to commit the crime, so it does make sense to mention firearms at this time.

Moreover, once faced with guns, ordinary people really have no means to resist. After all, facing a murderer who really dares to shoot and kill people, it is normal not to dare to joke with life...

So, when following Miyano Shiho's line of thought, Inspector Megure subconsciously felt that it made sense, but soon, Inspector Megure realized that something was wrong -

No, the other party is now a suspect, so why am I starting to believe the suspect's words?

In response, Inspector Megure continued to show a serious attitude, slapped the table hard, and said sternly:
"Ms. Haley, we are questioning you very seriously. You should know that you are the biggest suspect now. If you don't cooperate with us..."

"Cooperate? I'm just cooperating with your investigation."

However, it is clear that Miyano Shiho did not change her attitude at all in response to this statement. She just said:

"And to be honest, I am also a victim. I don't know what happened, but I was threatened by a strange person, and then I was investigated by your police. I can only tell you what I know!"

In this way, Inspector Megure was also tired of the other party's words, and then he said:
"But this is just your one-sided statement! At present, our witnesses have seen you appear at the crime scene!"

"I've never been here before. How would I know who the witness saw?" Miyano Shiho responded with the same attitude.

Knowing that he would not be able to get anything out of this, Inspector Megure was silent for a moment, thinking about the course of events. The deceased, Ohba Satoru, was shot to death, so -

"In that case, Miss Haley, please cooperate with us to check whether you have any reaction to the gunpowder smoke!"

In this way, if the "Miss Haley" in front of him was the criminal of this incident, then when she fired the gun, gunpowder smoke reaction would definitely be detected on her body. This is more critical and important than any excuse.

So, hearing this, Miyano Shiho casually spread his hands and replied:
"If we want to check the reaction of gunpowder smoke... I think we should be able to find it out..."

"Ok?"

Suddenly, hearing Miyano Shiho suddenly say this, Officer Megure was stunned, and then asked with a serious expression:
"So, Miss Haley, you admit it..."

"I didn't admit anything, but if you want to check if there is any reaction to the gunpowder on my body, I think there should be some... After all, the clothes I'm wearing now were also forced by that person to wear. I think... if the whole thing was designed by that person to make me bear the crime of murder, then there must be something on the clothes given to me that is enough to convict me, right?"

In this case, Miyano Shiho was speaking the truth and explained the situation -

After all, in Miyano Shiho's opinion, since Vermouth forced her to feed the antidote, turning her back into Miyano Shiho's appearance, and also prepared clothes for her, there were many suspicious points. Now that she knew that someone had witnessed someone who looked like her committing murder, Miyano Shiho roughly knew what Vermouth was planning.

Presumably, she hoped to force me into a corner in this way...

In this case, if Vermouth wants to use the police to force me into a desperate situation, then I might as well face the police directly. At least in front of the police, I don’t have to worry, and Gao Yuan will also help me. This approach may cause more trouble for Vermouth and the others than not knowing where to hide.

So, after hearing what Miyano Shiho said, Inspector Megure couldn't help but remain silent.

In short, the other party's intentions are now very clear. She is also being threatened by the murderer. Even if some evidence is found from her, it doesn't mean anything.

Faced with such a situation, Inspector Megure was obviously a little troubled, so he couldn't help but look at Gao Yuan on the side, hoping that he could help give some key explanations.

As a result, Gao Yuan, who had been basically silent from the beginning and just lowered his head in deep thought, finally spoke and said:

"Indeed, this is a very strange thing... By the way, did you find the door card of that room on this lady?"

Unexpectedly, Gao Yuan mentioned this matter——

After all, from Gao Yuan's perspective, when he and Miyano Shiho went to the room, they did not enter normally, but used technical means to directly open the lock, and did not use the room card at all. This can indirectly show that Miyano Shiho's appearance in that room is a strange thing in itself... (End of this chapter)
