Chapter 440 The Onibaba Legend Murder Case 4 (1/2)
”D - do you know who is the culprit?!” Misao looked at him with a surprised expression.
”Yeah, I have solved the case,” Yuuki nodded.
”Really, Onii-Chan, who is it?” Ayumi asked.
”Do you really know who it is?” Conan asked him curiously.
”Yeah, if I'm not wrong both of the culprits and the weapons are still in this house,” his answer made everyone startled.
”Wh-”
”What?”
”Really? Where is it?” Misao asked. He didn't have an unpleasant expression since it was his idol. He would have a different expression when it was Agasa or Conan who would explain it.
”But before that, Agasa Professor, your hammer is gone right?” Yuuki asked.
”Ah, yes, my hammer was gone earlier,” Agasa answered.
”Hammer was a blunt object and the victim was killed with a sharp object!” Misao interjected.
”I knew that I didn't mean the killer using the hammer to kill the victim, rather the culprit using a hammer to transform a certain object to become a weapon,” Yuuki said.
”Certain objects? What is it?” Mitsuhiko asked.
”It's the obsidian,” Yuuki answered.
”OBSIDIAN!!”
”Obsidian was used as a weapon from the 'Jomon Period' and the culprit broke the obsidian with the hammer to get sharp fragments to kill the victim,” Yuuki explained.
”He probably made that weapon during the night before the rain and in quite a far place to not make a lot of noise,” Yuuki explained.
”Hmm,” Misao nodded while writing his note.
”So? Who is the culprit?” Haibara asked.
”He is the one who could tell the obsidian with one look,” Yuuki looked at him and said, ”Adachi Raito-San, it is you!!”
”Wait for a second! How can I become a murderer with only the knowledge of the stone?” Adachi asked and added, ”If it is only the obsidian then both Fuuga and the old lady must be known about it as well, why should it only be me?”
”Because of the shoes,” Yuuki explained.
”Sh - shoes!!!” Adachi was surprised.
”If I remember correctly you said that you heard the scream of Akane-San and you rushed toward her side in a hurry, you know that you need to hurry in this situation but why you need to wear your shoes firmly, and what's more, you tied the laces of your shoes very properly, it doesn't make sense,” Yuuki said.
”In other words, you were there not because you were very fast but because you were there from the beginning,” Yuuki said.
”Still, you can't conclude that he is the culprit only with the shoes,” Misao said.
”Of course that is just the trigger that made me suspect him, the decisive evidence is the hammer,” Yuuki explained.
”Hammer? But we didn't find any fingerprints on it,” Misao said.
”If it was someone who was familiar with the house such as both Fuuga and the old lady, they would use something from the toolbox and not steal something from Agasa,” Yuuki explained.
”Fuuga?” They were startled.
”Oh, I forgot to explain that he is the grandson of the old lady,” Yuuki explained.
”WHAT!!!” Everyone was surprised.
Fuuga who was known suddenly became uncomfortable. He knew that he had told his grandmother to become a chef in town but here he was becoming hosts and did plastic surgery.
