The sixth man of Conan's police academy

Chapter 564 Is it possible that an eighth person exists?
The seven deadly sins belong to the classification of human evil deeds in Catholic teachings. According to the order of severity of the evil deeds, they are lust, gluttony, greed, laziness, rage, envy and arrogance.

If you put the seven deadly crimes into this serial murder case, you can understand why the murderer arranged the scene like that.

Victim No. 1 Kanano Konami died by eating chocolate cake containing arsenic trioxide, and a large amount of chocolate was scattered at the scene. This means that the murderer wanted to convey that she died due to gluttony.

Victim No.2 Akiyama Qiangwei was strangled to death by a red men's tie, and the murderer deliberately took off her upper body clothes and changed her lower body into men's underwear in order to express that she was because SE desires to die.

Although it is absurd for the murderer to use the Seven Deadly Sins to complete his serial killings, at this stage, the Seven Deadly Sins can only be used to explain these strange doubts.What confuses Ritsu Sasashima and others is that there are only seven suspects present, and two of them have died so far. Does the murderer plan to commit suicide after killing everyone?
Or did he set himself up to be Satan, believing that he had the power to rule the world, and that abusing power represents the sin of arrogance.

Conan raised his little head and after hearing everyone's analysis, he said with a tight face: "Brother Onizawa, I think we have to stop the murderer's behavior immediately. Since we have no way to find the murderer's flaws now, let's get together. Let him have no way to start, so that he can take the initiative to show his actions."

Ritsu Sasashima nodded and agreed with Conan's decision, or in other words, this was the only way they could do it at this stage. He couldn't help but be curious about the criminal. What kind of person could complete such a perfect crime? Woolen cloth?
He vaguely felt that Konano Kanami was not the first time he killed someone, and he might be carrying other lives on his hands.

"Oni, Mr. Onizawa."

Ritsu Sasashima turned around when he heard someone calling him. Seeing Kosuke Nishiyama's hesitant expression, he actually made his expression look friendlier and said in a gentle tone: "Mr. Nishiyama, you have to have Just say whatever you think."

"Actually, what I just wanted to say is that Butler Ishida was not present."

Everyone was stunned when they heard Nishiyama Kosuke's words. They looked around and saw that there was indeed no sign of the butler Shigeru Ishida. Nao Akiyama, who was standing by the window, pointed out the window and exclaimed: "Oh my God! Then! What's going on? Is it on fire?!"

Ritsu Sasashima quickly reached behind him, and sure enough he saw firelight appearing in the pitch-black night. After realizing that something was wrong, he quickly ran towards the stairs. He already had a bad premonition in his heart - the murderer may have been committed. The third crime!
"Damn it, why didn't you say this earlier at this time!" Hattori Heiji rushed to the stairs eager to save people, using his excellent sports cells to jump straight down, even the soles of his feet were shaken Even though he was numb, he did not stop walking and continued to go downstairs quickly in this way.

At this time, Conan was very puzzled with his short legs. Fortunately, the White Horse Detective took the initiative to suggest that they stay in place to protect the remaining people. If they were running around to create opportunities for the murderer hiding in the dark, they really had to achieve a goal. Detective Dui's work was all in vain.

At this time, it was still drizzling outside the villa. Ritsu Sasashima kept accelerating and ran towards the boarding position. He didn't care about the mud splashing on his trouser legs. He still held on to a glimmer of hope, hoping that Mr. Ishida Not dead.

However, when he arrived at the scene, the rising smoke and the faint smell of gasoline told him that it was impossible.

No miracle will happen. Mr. Ishida has died in the fire - becoming the murderer's third prey.

"Damn it! Hattori! Put out the fire quickly, be sure to check carefully and don't miss any clues!!!"

Ritsu Sasashima stretched out his hand to wipe the rain off his face. It had been a long time since he had fully exposed his emotions, but something like this made him doubt whether he could be a good policeman who protects the public. The murderer appeared again and again. He was unable to catch the crimes under his nose, which made him feel frustrated and powerless at not being able to save his life.

After the fire was extinguished, all that was left was a charred corpse. The murderer should have poured a large amount of steam on the boat and tied Ishida Shigeru up in the boat.However, during the inspection of the body, Sasashima Ritsu discovered that the fatal injury was on the head, which meant that Butler Ishida had passed away during the burning process.

No wonder there was no struggle. Thinking of this, he sighed. At least he wasn't burned alive, which would save him a lot of pain.

"Look here, it seems that our previous reasoning about the seven deadly sins is correct."

Koshimi Nanatsuki squatted on the ground and used his hands to pull open the newly filled land. The things buried in the soil were garden shears, and they were still stained with bright red blood. This showed that the time of Ishida Shigeru's death was the same as the second time. The victim in the case is Akiyama Qiangwei.

But this made Sasashima Ritsu and others worried. If the two died at a similar time, who would be the murderer?You must know that everyone is outside Qiu Shan Qiangwei's bedroom door. Is there a character on this island that no one knows about?

"There is half a broom in the water. It seems that the corresponding seven deadly sins should be laziness? This is the only one that is more consistent." Hattori Heiji said his reasoning. After all, gardening scissors and a broom can only think of cleaning. , this is also part of the housekeeper's responsibilities. Maybe the murderer was alluding to the time when housekeeper Ishida was lazy and did not work.

Sasashima Ritsu put his hand cautiously on the side of his left leg where the dagger was hidden. He vaguely felt that there was an observation line of sight. He faced the sea as much as possible to ensure that the person hiding in the dark could not see the shape of his mouth. He lowered his voice and whispered : "It seems that there is an eighth person on this island that we don't know about. He may be the last one to survive."

"The eighth person? But this island is so big, don't they know the existence of the eighth person?" Koshimizu Nanatsuki frowned and expressed confusion. There is an outsider living in the same space as them. Could they? Not aware of it?

Ritsu Sasashima held his chin and began to think, but the person who can complete a series of operations at this stage can only be the eighth person who has not yet appeared, but what Yue Shui said is also very reasonable. Outrageous.

"Onizawa, do you think there is a possibility?"

Hattori Heiji looked at Onizawa Takashi's face after he had changed his appearance. He suddenly thought: "Is it possible that the eighth person looks exactly the same as one of them? One of the remaining people is an accomplice of the eighth person. , there are two murderers.”

"?"

Sasajima Ritsu subconsciously groped for his left index finger. Hattori Heiji's reasoning could indeed resolve all of Xian's doubts, and it could also explain why everyone present was right-handed, and the murderer who strangled Mrs. Akiyama was dominantly handed. It's the left hand.

As if he realized something, he quickly said: "Go back quickly, the murderer may want to die with them!"
