Chapter 370: The End of Shanni Temple
On Wednesday, March 26, around 7:00 am, in the Sanni Temple on the upper reaches of the Tama River, in the confinement room.
Most of the police went to search, and Conan also went to search. Mei Daizi and the three decided to go to the balcony to see the scenery, so Yamazaki accompanied them to the balcony, and found that Conan was holding a piece of floor on the balcony in a daze. A large hole appeared in the floor of the balcony, and the river beach below could be seen.
Lan shouted, "Conan!"
"Ah, Sister Lan." Conan was taken aback.
"Put it down quickly." Lan said, "This is very dangerous, do you know that?"
Yuanzi said, "If you know it, don't do it."
"Yes." Conan said, put the floor down, and then ran away.
Yamazaki squatted down and pressed the floor, then rubbed his sticky fingers, and said with a smile, "It's okay."
"Wow, the view here is really good, you can see a lot of cherry blossoms." Sonoko smiled.
Mei Daizi smiled and said: "It's a pity that there are no fish in the waterfall, otherwise they would jump on them. This is called, yes, throw yourself into your arms."
Lan smiled and said, "It's a net cafe."
Yuanzi smiled and said, "I agree with what Mei Daizi said, there is no net here."
The three chatted casually for a while, and suddenly found a rainbow appearing under the waterfall.
Lan admired: "It's so beautiful."
Mei Daizi sighed: "If you get closer, you might be able to touch it."
Yuanzi smiled and said, "I mean, I haven't touched a rainbow yet."
The three of Mei Daizi were chatting, Yamazaki looked down at the grass by the stream, Conan found something out of the grass, took it and ran back, and then heard the voices of Meguro police department and Mouri from the confinement room, So he said, "It's almost time to go down."
"Okay, let's go." Lan said.
In the confinement room, Maori was talking to the Megure police department, "Nothing was found?"
"Yeah," Meguro Police Department said, "Now we can only go back and wait for the detailed autopsy report."
Conan ran in panting, pulled the corner of Yamazaki's clothes, "I'm going to start." Then he ran to Maori and whispered, "Uncle, I found something on the balcony."
"Oh, take me to see." Maori said.
On the balcony, Conan used an anesthesia needle to put Molly down, pasted the button speaker connected to the bow tie that had already been modified on the back of his collar, and then stuck his head into the skylight.
Conan said in Maori's voice: "Police, I already know the truth of this incident."
"What?" Meguro Police Department asked in surprise, "What you said is true, Maori? Do you know how the murderer is suspended in mid-air?"
"Yes, the murderer relies on buoyancy." Conan said in a Maori voice.
"Buoyancy?" Mumu Police Department asked angrily, "You don't think it's Wutiangu, do you?"
"No, of course not, the murderer didn't rely on the buoyancy of air." Conan said in a Maori voice, "but the buoyancy of water."
"Water?" Mu Mu Police Department laughed, "Stop joking, how can there be water here?"
Conan said in a Maori voice, "Oh, is it?" and set the floor on the window.
"Mei Daizi, you three step back." Yamazaki said with a smile.
"Oh." Lan and Mei Daizi took a step back while talking.
Sonoko asked, "What?"
"Wow!" A thin line of water fell down and landed on the hat of the Mumu police department, and the water droplets splashed on Yuanzi's face.
The Mumu Police Department took a step back and shouted, "Maori, what are you doing!"
"This is the method the murderer uses," Conan said in a Maori voice.
Yuanzi said: "The water will not be enough to fill this place by tomorrow morning."
Conan said in a Maori voice: "Think about the amount of water you saw on the balcony last night. It rained more last night than at that time. If it is brought here, it should be able to fill it in four or five hours. It's water."
"The amount of water is enough," Yuanzi asked, "but it's easy to say, how do we get it?"
"Conan showed me a floor just now, a floor that just connects the branch of the waterfall passing through the balcony and the skylight of this confinement room. There are neatly arranged cherry blossom petals between the gaps of this floor, which is the proof of using tape. And when these gaps are pasted up, the water flow can be completely drawn down." Conan said in a Maori voice, "Isn't there a rubber boat here? The murderer took the body of Abbot Tianyong on the rubber boat and used the The oars control the inflatable boats from appearing directly under the water flow. Use plastic sheeting or the like to keep their bodies from being wet by the splashing water. The permanent abbot puts it on, and then uses the oar to push off the water diversion floor, let the water stop, and climb out through the skylight."
"Ah, is that big hole used for drainage?" Mumu Police Department asked, "But how did the murderer make such a big hole? This is ten centimeters thick wood."
"It's very simple, just use the water." Conan said in a Maori voice. "Imagine a crack in the dam and the flood breaking through the dam. The proof is that there are no debris here, because the debris was all washed away by the water."
"In this case, it makes sense." Mumu Police Department said, and then asked, "So, who is the murderer?"
"What happened in the early hours of this morning, apart from the long-dead Abbot Tianyong, the only person who didn't make it there, Master Xiu Nian," Conan asked in a Maori voice, "Where were you at that time?"
"I'm in the room." Xiu Nian asked back, "Is it okay if I don't dare to go there?" Then he added, "Who has yelled, and I didn't care to tell the difference."
"Well, this explanation is fine," Conan said in a Maori voice, "The rubber boat, oars, and plastic sheeting are wet because of the high water vapor. These things and the tools for chiseling walls are all from the temple, and they are stained with yours. Fingerprints are not surprising." Then he asked, "What about the adhesive tape? What about the adhesive tape with the cherry blossom petals attached to this floor gap?" He said and threw a ball of adhesive tape at the foot of the Megure police department.
The Mumu Police Department said: "This is..."
"From the perspective of the difficulty and sequence of handling items in the aftermath, the rubber boat and other things only need to be placed in the storage room next to the confinement room, so the last thing to deal with is this adhesive tape. The way to deal with it should be to take it back and set it on fire. Burn it." Conan said in a Maori voice, "Master Xiu Nian, Master Tun Nian went to your room around 4:30, at that time, you should have just returned to the room, before you had time to deal with the tape, then something happened , you can only carry the tape on your body and follow behind Master Tun Nian. Later, you have been stared at by people, and there is no way to deal with the tape. Throw it outside."
Mumu Police Department looked at Master Xiu Nian and said, "Very well, if this adhesive tape is pasted on the cracks in the floor and there are fingerprints left, then the fingerprints on it must be left by the murderer."
"Why, why are you so unlucky." Master Xiu Nian said, "It's just a little bit of time."
"So, these two incidents, uh," Mumu Police Department asked, "By the way, Master Xiu Nian only came here last year, so the last incident, Maori, could it be that the last incident was..."
"Yes, the cut marks on this floor are very old, that is to say, someone has used it before. And the abbot of Tianyong forbids the people of Shanni Temple to talk about the incident two years ago. I think it should be the abbot of Tianyong It's done." Conan said in a Maori voice, "Abbot Tianyong's motive is to separate Master Zhongnian and Miss Kikuno, and Master Xiunen's motive is probably to avenge Master Zhongnian."
"When I investigated Master Zhongnian two years ago, I remembered that Master Zhongnian's file said that he also has a biological younger brother." Mumu police department exclaimed in surprise, "If you say that..."
"That's right, Zhong Nian is my biological brother." Xiu Nian said, "I know my brother will not commit suicide, so I came here to investigate the cause of his death and the real culprit who killed him. Later I guessed the method, but The real culprit was not found until last night, when I saw the abbot’s attitude of not even asking for money. You must know that the abbot Tianyong is definitely a person who has an eye for money. Three hundred thousand yen is enough for us to go to the beach for half a summer. Abbot Tianyong will definitely increase the price when encountering this kind of thing, I have never seen such a refusal before, so I suddenly realized that the real culprit is Abbot Tianyong."
The Mumu Police Department asked: "So you went to kill him?"
"Yesterday I went to Abbot Tianyong, but he came up with Jiu Jin and told everything. In fact, Ms. Chrysanthemum didn't have any marriage contract at all. The marriage contract was just made up by Abbot Tianyong to prevent Ms. Chrysanthemum from dating my brother Zhongnian. Abbot Tianyong took a fancy to the other party's family property, because the other party is not the only heir of the family, so he can only come out from the house in the future, so that with Miss Kikuno, the other party will come to Shanni Temple to be the abbot at that time, and he will definitely bring the big With a large sum of funds, the Shanni Temple will grow stronger. Also because of the presence of Miss Kikuno, the ancestor spirits of Abbot Tianyong’s family will not be cut off for worship. In the future, Miss Kikunao’s children will also be the descendants of Abbot Tianyong’s family. People, in this way, the Shanni Temple will continue to be passed on, and the ancestors of Abbot Tianyong and his family will continue to be enshrined." Xiu Nian said, "In order to achieve the goal, Abbot Tianyong knows that my brother Zhongnian and Miss Ju Nai are preparing When I ran away, I used this method to kill my brother."
"So that's the case." Megure Police Department said.
"Actually, I didn't intend to kill Abbot Tianyong at all. I originally planned to persuade him to surrender. However, Abbot Tianyong said that in order not to leave any evidence, he took advantage of the rainy season to overhaul the monastery and forced my brother He didn't sleep well for two days and two nights, and then moved his hands while he was fast asleep. Abbot Tianyong also said that because of that incident, Shanni Temple became a supernatural temple with foggy tengus in it. As long as it remains mysterious, it will definitely become famous and attract countless tourists." Xiu Nian said, "See Abbot Tianyong So ignorant of introspection, I thought of killing him. I went out and pasted tape on the cracks in the balcony floor, and prepared rubber boats and other equipment. Later, after I took a shower, I took the rope for binding firewood and went to heaven again. In Abbot Yong's room, he strangled him back to back while he was not paying attention. This was done deliberately to make Abbot Tianyong look like he was hanged. Unfortunately, two strangle marks were left .Later, just as Detective Maori said, I ran into Senior Brother Tun Nian as soon as I got back to the room, and I didn’t have time to deal with the tape. Alas, I was so unlucky, it was only a little bit of time.”
Mu Mu Police Department asked: "So, Master Xiu Nian, do you admit that you did this incident?"
"Yes, I did it." Xiu Nian said, and then said, "Detective Maori, I actually guessed wrong about one thing. Abbot Tianyong didn't let you live here. It was actually not because he was afraid that you would find out something. It seems that the incident two years ago was a perfect crime. There is nothing to be afraid of. It is just to keep a sense of mystery. Abbot Tianyong did not let you live here because he was afraid that you would bring bad luck to the temple and bring What a bad thing, for example, Miss Kikuno gave birth to a girl, and the other party divorced Miss Kikuno because of this. To be honest, now I agree with Abbot Tianyong very much. If you don’t come, Abbot Tianyong will not be drunk, let alone Because your reputation drives you away, I won't find any abnormalities and go to talk to Abbot Tianyong, and things won't be like this."
Everyone laughed, Yuanzi laughed the loudest, but quickly covered his mouth.
"Cough!" Mu Mu Police Department said seriously, "Okay, Master Xiu Nian, come with us."
"Okay." Xiu Nian said, and then said with emotion, "Detective Maori, I heard that you came here because of a flat tire. Maybe it's God's will. Sigh, if only you were here two years ago."
"..." Maori, no, it's Conan who didn't speak, Maori hasn't woken up yet.
"Brother Maori, do you want to go back with us?" Mumu Police Department asked.
"Uncle seems to be asleep." Taking a look at Mori, Yamazaki said with a smile, "No need, Megure Police Department, there are still chefs who can change tires, and the car must be ready."
"Are you asleep again?" Mumu Police Department smiled, "Then we'll leave first. Also, tell him to come over as soon as possible."
"I'll tell him," Yamazaki said.
After the Mumu Police Department led the team away, the four of Yamazaki went to the balcony and helped Moori, who was covered in water, back to the guest room. Yamazaki took off Mouri's clothes and handed them over to Mei Daizi, Sonoko and Lan for ironing. one time. At the same time, please ask the three Kuan Nian who came with them to calculate the damage in the backyard so that they can compensate them.
When Mei Daizi and Kuan Nian left, Conan asked in a low voice, "Hey, you knew that the first scene was in Abbot Tianyong's bedroom. You saw it when you called the police, that's why you didn't let Lan and the others go." Use your bedroom phone instead of your satellite phone in the guest room? Is it because the bedroom is too tidy?"
"That's right," Yamazaki said. "It's obviously been cleaned up, and that's not something a person who takes a shower to go to bed should do."
"When we caused something like that, Master Xiu Nian who didn't go to the scene is indeed very suspicious, but I have no way to confirm that it is him before I check that the fingerprints on the tape are his." Conan asked, "Are you When will it be confirmed that it is his?"
"I saw Abbot Tenyong's bedroom and confirmed that the murderer was Master Xiunen." Yamazaki said with a smile.
"What!" Conan was taken aback.
"It's not your fault that you are short." Yamazaki smiled, "There are several high places in Abbot Tianyong's bedroom that have not been cleaned up. If you estimate your height and arm length, you two are the culprits."
Conan sent a pair of big white eyes.
Yamazaki said with a smile: "Actually, you are not bad, you found that floor first."
Conan asked angrily: "You don't want to say that this is the benefit of being short?"
"You said it yourself." Yamazaki laughed.
At this time, Mao Li yawned and woke up, and then found that all the clothes were gone, and uttered an earth-shattering cry. Lan, Yuanzi, Mei Daizi, Kuan Nian, Tun Nian, and Mu Nian rushed over immediately .
Finding nothing wrong, the three of Lan went to iron the clothes again, Yamazaki asked Conan to tell Maori what happened, and the three of them left the guest room with Kannian.
Walking to the big hole in front of the bathroom, Yamazaki asked how much the compensation was. The three of them looked at each other and quoted a price, 140,000 yen.
"This is 300,000 yen. The front yard will also be repaired, and the rest will be used as living expenses." Yamazaki said with a smile, "I don't know what you plan to do, but please wait a moment, I will introduce friends to buy it." Here, negotiations may take half a month, if you are willing to stay and work for them, wait half a month before making a decision."
"Of course we don't want to leave." Kuan Nian asked, "But what kind of work do you want us to do?"
"It's about the same as you are now, plus three kinds of work: animal husbandry, fishing, and farming. Of course, this place is definitely not the only one, and the people are not the only three of you. If you buy this place, you will build a hydropower station here and hire some people from nearby. People." Yamazaki said.
"Is this asking us to return to vulgarity?" Mu Nian asked.
Kuan Nian asked: "Mr. Yamazaki, we have been monks since we were young. Although we are not very pious, we don't want to return to the vulgar, can we?"
"If you don't want to become vulgar," Yamazaki said, "I can ask them to send a temporary abbot to teach you."
"Abbot?" Mu Nian said, "What do they believe in?"
Yamazaki said with a smile: "It's not a letter, it's just an offering to Amitabha Tathagata, so that the family members of the deceased can have a sustenance. By the way, they can't help eating meat, but if they want to get married, they have to return to the secular world."
"That's not bad." Tun Nian said with a smile, "We use the ritual of the Pure Land Sect."
"Yeah, you don't have to eat meat secretly anymore." Kuan Nian said with a smile.
"You know?" Tun Nian was taken aback.
"With your body shape, you don't seem to be a vegetarian." Mu Nian smiled, "Actually, I know all about it, and Xiu Nian also secretly ate it."
Kuan Nian said: "Mr. Yamazaki, we will just wait."
"Please also be prepared." Yamazaki said.
Kuan Nian said: "We will."
At this time, the three of Ran came out of the bathroom with Maori's clothes, and Yamazaki gave the clothes to Maori who had just heard the story. After Maoli got dressed, he took Yamazaki, Mei Daiko, Lan, Sonoko and Conan out of the Sanni Temple, and went back in the car that had the tire changed and was parked in front of the temple. ...
