Finally, Nishina was brought up and was lying on the ground unconscious. Shishido called out to Nishina repeatedly but received no response.
Winnet now understood what Sawaki was planning. If she used the excuse of artificial respiration to save Renko now, she could kill him and get away with it by saying "it's too late". However, Miss Winnet did not have such an idea at the moment. She just stood there indifferently. She did not care about Renko's life or death.
She is neither a hero nor a good person.
Shiratori saw this and realized that as a police officer, he was the only one who could help. He rushed to Renko's side, propped up the back of his head, and prepared to perform first aid.
Conan lowered his head and began to think.
When the sea water poured in, Conan thought that the criminal's main target was Nishikawa, because among all people, he was the only one who could not swim. Now that Nishikawa was on the verge of life and death, he thought that the murderer would harm him under the pretext of artificial respiration.
But at the moment, it seems that the murderer did not specifically target Renko, and did not even know that he could not swim.
Before swimming out of the facility, Conan collected the cards floating on the water, and the Ace of Spades was missing. It seems that the criminal originally planned to have a copy for Kudo Shinichi. Now this card is likely still on the criminal's body.
But there is no evidence.
Conan was troubled.
If the people present were searched without evidence, they might not cooperate, and there was also the possibility that the murderer had secretly thrown away the cards. The fluorescent paint that Nana Koyama might have left on the murderer's clothes had now been washed away by the sea water.
Conan hesitated whether to borrow Kogoro's prestige to carry out this matter.
At the same time, Winnet was also worried: Was she doing it too perfectly?
If Zemu's true identity had not been exposed, his disappearance might have become a handle.
Winnet sighed in her heart. She might as well just come clean and fulfill Zemu's wish. Besides, Xiaolan was actually skeptical about her previous inference, so Winnet thought she could put it into practice on the spot.
"What a pity! I didn't want to do this... You guys are so kind to save a burden. But if you let him go here, I won't be able to sleep even if I live!"
Winnet sighed, reaching her right hand into her suit jacket and pulling out a ball of foam.
With a strong pull, a black object appeared in her hand.
boom!
boom!
Renko, who had just been rescued and was still spouting water like a whale, was shot twice in succession by Winnet and there was no possibility of rescue at all.
"What I hate most in my life is people who do whatever it takes to become famous and who convey wrong knowledge to readers."
Winnet continued Zemu's words and expressed her views on this kind of people.
She had bought the wrong cookbook before, and it had made her unhappy.
It can't be said that Winnet hates them, but she has always been free to do as she pleases when it comes to "eliminating evil". Although she will not involve innocent people like Gin, once she hates someone, it is a piece of cake for her to clean up.
The white bird, which had just finished artificial respiration, opened its mouth wide enough to fit a goose egg.
The others were also stunned, not daring to act rashly, and sweat began to drip from their faces. Kogoro, who was staying with Megure, had a dull expression, while Conan was hesitating whether to give him an anesthetic injection - no matter how stupid he was, he guessed that the murderer was Zemu, but with the body of an elementary school student, it was really not convincing at all.
However, the man in front of him, Sawaki Kohei, has a gun in his hand, and Kogoro is also an important fighting force. If he is anesthetized, it would be equivalent to cutting off one's own arm.
"Mr. Zemu, what are you doing!?"
"Haha, as you can see, haven't you figured out the whole thing yet?"
"Humph, the real murderer is you! Mr. Zemu!"
Conan hid behind a stone pillar and began to imitate Kogoro's voice.
Kogoro pointed at himself in confusion, he clearly didn't say anything - when he thought about this - a strange sleepiness came over him - Conan finally fired the anesthetic needle.
If the criminal has a gun, your uncle won't be of much use. It's better to use reasoning to shake the other party.
"Oh?! Is this the legendary sleeping Kogoro?"
Winnet pretended to be surprised, she knew that Conan was behind it. However, she was still a little interested in his reasoning - to see if he could restore Zemu's original plan.
"That's right. The one who attacked us was not Murakami Jyou, but Mr. Sawaki Kouhei in front of us."
Before Winnet could speak, Megure asked him anxiously.
"What about the motive? What is his motive?"
Although the behavior just now has confirmed that Sawaki is the murderer, Megure is still confused about the reason for attacking Eri, Dr. Agasa and him.
"I think it may have something to do with taste disorder."
"Taste disturbance..."
"You mean the kind that makes you lose the ability to tell the taste of food and drink?"
Shishido asked.
"Yes, he has this so-called taste disorder."
Megure's mouth widened when he heard that.
"The main reason for taste disorders is due to mental stress or head trauma."
"Head injury..." Megure reacted quickly, "So, Miss Nana said that the person she almost hit in the car accident was Mr. Sawaki? This...wait a minute, if he really has a taste disorder, then he should not be able to taste the bottle of wine that Miss Nana brought!"
Megure brought the topic back to the original point.
From a common sense perspective, this is indeed the case, but experience often speaks volumes.
However, it still requires rich and accurate memory to engrave the special fragrance and color in the brain. From this starting point, Zemu is indeed a genius in a unique field.
"In fact, he only judges based on the aroma and color of the wine."
"Will such a thing happen?"
Megure felt unbelievable.
Conan didn't care and continued, "Mr. Sawaki relied on his only remaining vision and sense of smell to continue working as a bartender after the car accident. But this went against his emphasis on pursuing perfect aesthetics. That's why Mr. Sawaki quit his job as a bartender and planned to return to his hometown in the countryside. But before that, he had to take revenge on those people, including Miss Nana, who destroyed his sense of taste. Mr. Sawaki, I think you must have been very unwilling to accept this! In the past, you treasured and collected famous wines for several years so that you could open a restaurant, but now they were broken by you."
"In that case, the scar on the floor is... But Maori brother, how do you know such a thing?"
"That's because he was tasting the seasoning in the kitchen just now."
Conan recalled that Zemu had gone to the kitchen before tasting the wine.
"Moreover, the seasoning he tasted was chili powder, and it was chili powder from India. For a wine taster like him who needs to use his tongue every day, his tongue is his life, and he usually doesn't come into contact with spicy food. Conan witnessed this scene at the time. Although I haven't verified it, I think Mr. Sawaki now should not deliberately deny this."
Winette smiled.
It seems that Zemu had already revealed a flaw before she appeared.
However, this small flaw was not enough to make him the murderer. Due to the frequent occurrence of subsequent urgent cases, Kudo Shinichi did not have time to verify it.
However, if he was a cunning and stubborn criminal, he would definitely not admit this at this time.
Now that Winette has shot Renko, there is no point in denying the existing facts. This is what Zemu said to her in person. The taste disorder is like a deep and painful wound across his body.
It was precisely because of this that Zemu made up his mind to take revenge.
"I do have a taste disorder, and it is exactly as you said. But if I hadn't taken the initiative to come forward, what you said would be nothing but unfounded inferences."
She was sure that he had no evidence at all.
Conan was silent for a moment, then said: "As for the evidence, it should still be on you. Although you threw out the playing cards with numbers from 2 to 6, the Ace of Spades is still on you, right?"
Conan, who was standing behind the scenes, threw out the playing cards he had collected earlier, and they scattered all over the floor.
"It's the card that corresponds to Kudo Shinichi."
Winnett made no excuses, she did keep her cards on her chest as she had intended to admit the identity of the murderer from the beginning.
But she didn't think it was a mistake. If she really wanted to commit a crime, she would never carry this card with her.
The best way to deal with detectives is actually to do a simple addition and subtraction, reducing your own suspicion and increasing the suspicion of others.
Winette had an instinctive intuition.
She could tell that Conan's words were not 100% certain. This strange conclusion was actually unreliable. However, as long as there was a clue, everyone would focus their attention on the suspect. This was also the key to solving the case at the psychological level.
Come to a conclusion first, then verify it.
Winnett took the cards from her arms and threw them next to Xiaolan.
"Ace of Spades!"
White birds scream.
According to Sawaki's script, Kudo Shinichi should have appeared in pairs with Mouri Ran, but he could not have expected that Gin would intercept them.
"Mr. Maori, everything is exactly as you just said. But this is just the result of inferring from the conclusion, isn't it?"
Wynette's voice was teasing.
"If I hadn't pulled out a gun and shot Renko, you wouldn't be able to define me. Because I didn't leave any loopholes in the entire crime process, right?"
As soon as he said this, Conan sneered. He rejected it.
"You are wrong. As long as a crime is committed, there must be loopholes, but people are often deceived. Of all people, you are the only one who has the opportunity and time to kill Mr. Asahi Shengyi, right?"
Winnet almost laughed out loud when she heard this.
Do I kill myself?
However, this is not surprising, because her deception skills are too good. In fact, Asahi Shengyi had already sent it one night, otherwise Zemu would have found it difficult to use his name to instruct his secretary to do things.
Xu Shengyi's arrogant attitude was also the key reason why his secretary accepted the instructions.
Winnet lowered her eyes and did not expose these things, but began to repeat the reason for the crime that Zemu had told her. She thought that he must want to say it in person, and even practiced it alone to express his anger.
She actually felt a little bit of empathy.
If someone tried to hurt Ai, she would probably become several times crazier than him.
Those far-fetched reasons didn't sound so far-fetched anymore, especially the one who insulted Sawaki, Hiroki Tsuji, a guy she really felt would be no different if he died - she acted excited and recounted the whole thing.
"Is this just because of this little thing?"
Megure said incomprehensibly.
"You say this is a trivial matter? Can you guys understand how I felt at that time?" She roared in a pretentious manner.
Winnett didn't care about sin, she wasn't compassionate enough to sympathize with Zemu. He even killed Murakami, a completely unrelated person - super unlucky - Winnett labeled him and recounted the whole process of Zemu being killed by him after Murakami got drunk.
For Murakami Takeshi, who wanted to go to the Mori Detective Agency to thank Kogoro, it was actually an unprovoked disaster.
Even if you repent and reform, it doesn't mean you can start over.
"To be honest, I really hoped that Kudo Shinichi could come along, but it seems that this wish has not been fulfilled."
In fact, I came here and couldn't find any solid evidence.
Under Megure's soul-searching questioning, Winette was too lazy to talk nonsense with him. Judging from the results, the act of blowing up the underwater restaurant could only kill Renko at most - and even this was not achieved. She still had the last bomb in her hand, but she didn't plan to detonate it now because she had a gun in her hand, and even the police couldn't do anything to her.
Winette had a sudden idea.
She leapt to the weak Xiaolan and pointed the gun at her crown.
It is--
Hijacking time.
……
342 Slipped
"Well, I advise you to be more honest. For example, a certain police officer who has dishonest hands."
She pointed the gun at Xiaolan and laughed evilly.
"Please raise your hands above your shoulders, Officer Shiratori. If you dare to move, she will die." She smiled.
Conan clenched his teeth and frowned. He thought to himself: Damn, Xiaolan is too tired now and there is no way she can use karate.
If it weren't for the accident that Xiaolan was crushed by a car, the criminal would have walked into the trap at this moment, but there was no but. He saw the evil smile of Zemu played by Winnet, and a trembling fear rose in his heart, and there was a hint of familiarity. And the next second, I don't know whether Kogoro developed resistance or because he was wet and lost his sleepiness, but he woke up. Only then did Conan remember that he was now facing the same dilemma as Kogoro ten years ago - the situation where the person he liked was kidnapped by the gangster.
It's so similar. The suspect had a gun and held Xiaolan hostage.
"hateful……"
When Kogoro woke up, he was a little dazed, but he had already seen the scene of Winette shooting Renko, so he naturally understood why he held Xiaolan hostage. He woke up very quickly, lowered his body, and maintained a state in which he could exert force at any time.
"As long as you let me go," she said, "I will let her go just for this. Isn't it a good deal, Mr. Maori? Your hatred for me now will only put your daughter in greater danger. But if you turn around and help me, I will send her to you safely. How do you think of this deal?"
Winette began to confuse Kogoro's mind with words.
She didn't expect Kogoro to turn against her, everything was just to delay time. With her other hand in her pocket, she manipulated the recently launched miniature mobile phone and edited a message for Clyde.
