Chapter 251
Sapporo.
In a café.
The table by the window, through the glass, can see the pedestrians coming and going outside.
Kudo Yusaku wears a decent suit, thick-lensed glasses, and a polite appearance, quite ~ a bit of honest temperament.
However, he is the ceiling of reasoning ability in the world of Kogaku, far above his son Kudo Shin-ichi.
Even, he can find out the real murderer in a short time just by phone.
At this time, Kudo Yusaku pushed his glasses and looked at the strange and familiar man in front of him, but he was never able to see him through.
Makoto Higashino!
Whether it’s on TV news, magazines and newspapers, or online communities, a name that can be seen everywhere, a name that everyone knows.
In Japan, all detectives, including him, were overshadowed.
Even as far away as the United States, Kudo Yusaku can often hear news about him.
And now, this man, sitting in front of him.
At the same time, he also put his arm around a woman who once belonged to him.
“The first time we met, I didn’t expect you to really be just a high school student!”
Kudo Yusaku smiled, smiling very genuinely.
Even when he saw his ex-wife hugging and hugging other men, he was smiling, calm, and seemed to be ready for a long time.
“Reasoning ability, like love, has nothing to do with age!”
“As long as you have justice in your heart, you will definitely find out the truth!”
As a master of tea art, Makoto Higashino naturally will not miss any opportunity.
A simple sentence, but brought with him and Yukiko’s affairs, so that the latter instantly blushed with shame and leaned on his shoulder with a happy face.
“I can suddenly understand why Yukiko divorced me and chose to be with you regardless of the worldly eyes.”
Kudo Yusaku sighed and smiled bitterly helplessly.
Apart from fiction and reasoning, he is like an idiot, and many things seem very powerless.
Movies too!
Love too!
Even if he saw his wife being taken away, he could only smile and bless, and could not do anything.
“There are some things that cannot be explained by logic and reasoning.”
“For example, I like her, and she likes me!”
Higashino smiled indifferently.
“Makoto!”
Yukiko called his name softly, her face full of happiness.
“By the way, how did you know the murderer?”
“Although he committed the crime based on my mystery novel ten years ago, even I forgot it, and I didn’t write the ending at that time.”
“And you, before me, found out the truth and caught the murderer.”
Kudo Yusaku tries to change the subject, trying to avoid the love story of Makoto Higashino and his ex-wife as much as possible.
“It’s simple!”
“He disguised himself as a series of props needed by Asama Yasuji, and he remained on the train and did not dispose of them in time.”
“Moreover, with the environment at that time, when the train was killed, he immediately stopped and called the police, and he couldn’t discard the disguise.”
Makoto Higashino said lightly.
Kayue Zeli’s modus operandi is not very clever, after all, he is just copying an unfinished mystery novel and imitating crime according to the plot inside.
“Then how do you know that the murderer must be Kayue Zeli?”
Kudo Yusaku continued to ask.
Whether it was Makoto Higashino, who he learned about in the newspapers, or according to Yukiko, or his son Shinichi Kudo, he was curious about the young detective.
And!
Even Yusaku Kudo, the world’s top reasoning writer, sometimes can’t understand Makoto Higashino’s reasoning techniques.
How did he quickly solve the case and catch the murderer in a short period of time? (Read violent novels, just go to Feilu Fiction Network!) ）
“First of all, this case must be a vendetta.”
“Because Keitaro Izumo, who is worth a fortune, did not lose his finances and was not blackmailed.”
“Therefore, the scope of the murderer can be locked on the characters related to Keitaro Izumo.”
“And the location of the case happened on the North Star train, and the train stopped at the first time to call the police, which is equivalent to a closed environment.”
“The murderer must still be on the train, and in the same carriage.”
Makoto Higashino explained.
Pushing back from the results is much easier than forward reasoning.
“Then why isn’t the murderer Yasuharu Asama?”
“After all, all the evidence at that time pointed to this robber!”
Kudo Yusaku asked with a smile.
“Because he is a veteran and a repeat robber.”
“On a train traveling more than 100 kilometers per hour, jumping out of the train and running away is too stupid for him to do.”
“Moreover, before jumping out of the car, he threw away his only defensive weapon, as well as a four-bullet pistol, which is also very strange, and it should not have been his behavior.”
“At the same time, the contradiction between Yasuharu Asama and Keitaro Izumo did not intensify to the point of needing to be shot.”
“Then there was the robbery that year, and there was still a prisoner who was not caught.”
“So, I ruled out the possibility of him being the murderer at the beginning, and instead locked it on someone else.”
Makoto Higashino took a sip of water and continued.
“Then there is the opponent of the Shi Long Race, the Stone Hammer Shi Chang.”
“He can’t either!”
“Because once Keitaro Izumo is shot, he will become the first target of suspicion, and even if the suspicion is cleared, it will be very unfavorable on the fishing ship, and the doubters will continue to be suspicious.”
“Similarly, Mrs. Izumo, there is no need to kill her husband. Even if you want to kill your husband, there are many times and opportunities, and you don’t need to do it on the train. ”
……
Makoto Higashino explained his reasoning process in detail.
Every detail seems very reasonable, and there is no fault in it.
“Makes sense.”
“But…”
“Forget it, in short, the murderer has been found, and the case has been solved.”
“As a police officer, you are indeed very qualified!”
Kudo Yusaku smiled, meaning the long corpse.
