Justify yourself
What a coincidence. Here we were struggling with how to dispose of the body, and someone happened to fall from the building. The Chamber of Secrets also doesn't stand up to close scrutiny. It's a pity for young girls, they had a bright future
The train of thought is still too jumpy, and this clue is a bit difficult to support such divergent reasoning. Of course, it may be that I am too good at it.
Some spoilers
There are some bugs in the first case. Didn't the shot Hashizume-sensei made after Kimizuka fell to the ground not have ballistics detection? The first shot was blocked by the pocket watch, so there must be bullet holes in the clothes. If the shot that was made later was to completely overlap with the first shot, it must have been shot very close to it, right? There must be burn marks left by the gun muzzle on the clothes. Moreover, Kimizuka was lying on the ground, and the blood from the gunshot wound to his right chest must have flowed all over the floor. If he had been forced to stand up, the traces of blood flow would have been different than if he had been lying on the ground. Also, when Hashizume recharged his gun, he wouldn't have lifted Kimizuka up before shooting. Then wouldn't he have left a crater on the ground if he fired at Kimizuka who was lying on the ground?
very good
I'm also a detective fan
Is there a bug in the last article Kayako's Secret Room? (Only spoilers for the last article)
One of the last two rows of footprints was left by Miss Qiu Hui when she left after killing Noriko Kasaka on a temporary basis. In other words, these two rows of footprints were not designed. There should have been only one row of footprints in the end. In that case, wouldn't the police have broken it immediately after checking? The murderer shouldn't have thought of this. In addition, Kayako saw on the 2nd that the snow had stopped when Noriko went out to buy milk at 5 o'clock. Wouldn't it have been exposed if the snow had not stopped at 5 o'clock on the 3rd?
Yes, after reading some of the small details, I haven't even gone round yet The penultimate case is quite touching, so why not put this story at the end?
fine
You can't guess the murderer every time, it's different from watching anime
Kaoru Sasayama is unfortunate and innocent. She was such a young girl. It should have a very good future! It's a pity that he lost his life because of such trivial things.
Gentle teachers are indeed more popular than strict ones. But after all, a strict teacher produces a good disciple. Although many people hate Mr. Kimizuka, I have to say that he is really capable.
Kimitsuka-sensei probably hates iron for not becoming steel. I hope my students will be better. That's why he is so strict with his students. If you don't meet the standards, you'll be treated coldly.
