Infinity Starting with Hikaru no Go

Page 250

Upon seeing this, everyone present showed expressions of shock and disbelief, seemingly unable to believe what they were witnessing.

Even Shinichi Kudo couldn't help but show a look of shock.

Of course, the reason why Shinichi Kudo was shocked was not because the Minowa Shohe in front of him was actually Kosuke Miho in disguise, but because Chen Anxia was able to see through the disguise and even accurately identify Kosuke Miho.

Shinichi Kudo had just seen Kosuke Miho disguised as Shohei Minowa, but he failed to see through Miho's disguise.

But Chen Anxia was able to see through it.

It's worth noting that, with his heavy winter clothing, ski hat, and goggles on, Kosuke Miho had already concealed most of his facial features.

In this case, Kosuke Miho, whose physique is similar to that of Shohei Minowa and who is also Shohei Minowa's stunt double, can achieve a similarity of over 95%.

This 95% similarity is enough to make it difficult for even those who know Minowa Shohei very well to distinguish between the real and the fake.

Shinichi Kudo was puzzled, wondering how Chen Anxia had been able to see through it.

And then there's... this guy.

Thinking about it, Shinichi Kudo turned his gaze to Kosuke Miho.

Shinichi Kudo naturally saw through Minowa Shohei's scheme, but he didn't understand why Kosuke Miho would choose to cooperate with Anxia Chen.

Shinichi Kudo knew that if Kosuke Miho did not cooperate, then Shohei Minowa could leave safely.

So, did Chen Anxia already know that Sanbao Gengjie would choose to cooperate with him?

This question also puzzled Shinichi Kudo.

Not only Shinichi Kudo, but Heiji Hattori, who was listening on the other end of the phone, was also puzzled.

Amidst the shock of the crowd and the bewilderment of Shinichi Kudo and Heiji Hattori, Chen Anxia spoke up, saying, "In my eyes, your disguise has too many flaws."

"The biggest flaw is your nose and lip shape, which are clearly different from those of Minowa Shohei."

Chen Anxia's words jolted Shinichi Kudo, and a look of shock involuntarily appeared on his face. Looking at Chen Anxia's back, he muttered to himself, "This guy's insight is terrifying!"

Not only Shinichi Kudo, but also Heiji Hattori.

As for Watson, he was once again impressed by Chen Anxia's abilities and looked forward to the truth that Chen Anxia was about to reveal.

Upon hearing Chen Anxia's words, Miho Kosuke smiled slightly, as if he had already convinced Chen Anxia.

Then, Kosuke Miho removed his disguise and unzipped his bag, exposing Shohei Minowa, who was hiding inside, to everyone's view.

After doing all this, amidst Minowa Shohei's resentful expression, Miho Kosuke said to Chen Anxia, ​​"Then, famous detective, please uncover the truth behind that strange case from four years ago!"

Seeing this, Minowa Shohei, who was struggling to get up from his bag, said to Miho Kosuke with a twisted face, "Miho, you will regret what you did today!"

As he spoke, Ji Lun looked at Chen Anxia with a cold, murderous gaze, then turned and left, saying, "I don't have time to play detective games with you."

Watching Minowa Shohei's departing figure, Chen Anxia remained expressionless and slowly said, "Four years ago, at the same request of the fans, you and Mizukami Jiro used the same method to demonstrate your extraordinary skiing skills that did not belong to you, thus deceiving the fans."

"At that time, I disguised myself as your Jiro Mizukami and boarded the cable car with a large bag containing you on my back."

"I would like to ask, why did you disappear after Jiro Mizukami was murdered, when you were on the cable car with him?"

"And why did the big bag that was supposed to contain you end up being a smaller bag filled with snow?"

"Isn't this a 'suicide' scene you deliberately staged after murdering Mizukami Jiro, in order to clear yourself of suspicion, and that it was related to the Yuki-onna legend?"

"As for how to make the bag full of snow appear..."

After hearing Chen Anxia's reasoning, Shinichi Kudo and Heiji Hattori both showed expressions of sudden realization.

Indeed, if you wet the bag straps first and then freeze them into ice, you can then use the snow-blocking wheels mounted in the opposite direction on your ski poles to easily pull the snow-filled bag onto the ski lift at the lowest point.

After hearing Chen Anxia's perfectly feasible reasoning, the surrounding fans couldn't help but start discussing it and pointing at Ji Lun Jiangbing.

Minowa Shohei sensed the atmosphere around him and stopped in his tracks. He turned to look at Chen Anxia and said with a contemptuous smile, "It is indeed a very interesting deduction, but where is the evidence?"

“At the time, Jiro Mizukami was carrying me on a cable car up the mountain, and he was found dead when the cable car reached the bottom of the mountain.”

"In this scenario, I could have gotten off the cable car at the top of the mountain, and Jiro Mizukami could have changed into a bag full of snow after I got off the cable car and committed suicide on the way down the mountain."

Minowa Shohei's logical words also began to shift public opinion.

Upon hearing Ji Lun Jiangbing's words, Chen Anxia couldn't help but smile slightly, saying, "I originally thought it would take some effort, but I didn't expect things to go so smoothly."

The people around were stunned, not understanding what Chen Anxia was talking about.

The soldiers under the command of Ji Lun were equally puzzled.

Only Shinichi Kudo and Heiji Hattori seemed to have thought of something, thinking to themselves, "If he insists on denying that he took the cable car up the mountain with Jiro Mizukami, we can only suspect him without physical evidence, since there are only eyewitnesses."

"But now... it's over..."

Chen Anxia didn't beat around the bush and said directly, "Don't you know that there are surveillance cameras at the transfer station of the ski resort on the mountaintop?"

Upon hearing this, the soldier's pupils constricted sharply, as if he had realized something, and his face suddenly turned extremely ugly.

Chen Anxia continued, "Back then, it was precisely because we filmed footage of Mizukami Jiro taking the cable car alone to the top of the mountain, without getting off midway, and continuing to take the cable car down the mountain that we were able to conclude that Mizukami Jiro was taking the cable car alone."

"That means you're lying. You didn't get off at the top of the mountain at all. Instead, you went down the mountain with Mizukami Jiro and killed him along the way!"

"Am I right, Minowa Shōhei!"

Minowa no Shohei did not respond to Chen Anxia's words. Instead, he looked at the expressions and reactions of the fans around him, and his face became increasingly distorted and ferocious.

Minowa Shōhei, who was already extremely concerned about his image, could hardly tolerate such a situation.

It's important to know that back then, Minowa Shohei killed Mizukami Jiro because he was afraid that after Mizukami Jiro became a full-time actor from a stuntman, he would reveal that he couldn't ski, which would damage his image!

Driven by twisted rage, Minowa Shohei suddenly pulled a folding knife from his pocket and charged directly at Chen Anxia, ​​roaring, "Damn brat, it's all your fault! Die!"

Upon seeing this, the people around couldn't help but scream in alarm, their faces filled with terror.

Even Ran Mouri and Kazuha Toyama, two girls with considerable martial arts skills, were taken aback by the scene before them and were unable to react for a moment.

Shinichi Kudo reacted quickly and immediately thought of using his ball skills to save Chen Anxia.

But it was too late, because Ji Lun Jiangbing had already reached Chen Anxia's front, and the folding knife in his hand was about to stab Chen Anxia's stomach.

Under these circumstances, Chen Anxia seemed to have no time to react and could only watch helplessly as the folding knife got closer and closer to him.

In the critical moment, Hua Sheng, who had been by Chen Anxia's side, stepped forward.

With unimaginable reflexes and speed, Watson grabbed Minowa Shohei's hand holding the folding knife, twisted it slightly, and then, amidst Minowa Shohei's pained expression, slammed him to the ground with an over-the-shoulder throw.

Seeing this, Chen Anxia showed no surprise. She looked at Watson with her deep eyes and smiled slightly, saying, "Watson, thank you!"

To this, Watson responded with a hearty laugh and said, "It's nothing!"

In fact, Chen Anxia had already learned about Hua Sheng's other hobby besides deduction during their early interactions – martial arts.

Furthermore, Watson's talent in martial arts far surpasses his talent in reasoning.

Although Watson is only 14 years old, he is already a martial arts prodigy who is proficient in karate, aikido and judo.

......

Chapter 373 An Invitation from the Entertainment Industry: The Name of a Modern-Day Sherlock Holmes!

Two hours later, Yamagata Prefectural Police arrived at the ski resort and took Minowa Shohei, who had been apprehended, away.

Originally, Chen Anxia was supposed to go along to give a statement, but because a film crew member who had recorded the entire process was also going, Chen Anxia was exempted from going.

The story of a junior high school student uncovering the truth behind a bizarre case from four years ago quickly began to spread.

As a result, the story of Chen Anxia, ​​a junior high school detective, investigating the truth began to spread widely in the ski resort.

During its transmission, a completely new version gradually emerged due to Watson's existence.

In this version, Chen Anxia is referred to as a modern-day Sherlock Holmes.

As for Watson, in this version, he is Chen Anxia's assistant.

......

Inside the ski resort, Shinichi Kudo looked out the window at the sudden heavy snowfall, his expression somber.

In Shinichi Kudo's mind, Chen Anxia's figure was like a towering mountain, radiating a sense of oppression that made Shinichi Kudo feel suffocated and restrained.

The reason for this is that the more carefully Shinichi Kudo reviewed Chen Anxia's reasoning process, the more he felt that Chen Anxia was unfathomable.

Although he didn't want to belittle himself, Shinichi Kudo knew that under the same conditions, he would never be able to find out the truth of the case as quickly as Chen Anxia.

And what this meant, Shinichi Kudo knew very well.

But this only fueled Shinichi Kudo's fighting spirit even more.

Among the crowd not far from Shinichi Kudo, Yukiko Kudo was recording precious moments of Shinichi Kudo, and asked curiously, "Yusaku, what do you think of that boy Chen Anxia?"

Yusaku Kudo, who was jotting down his inspiration, couldn't help but smile slightly and say, "Perhaps, he really could become the Sherlock Holmes of today."

As he spoke, Kudo Yusaku looked at the notebook in his hand where he was recording his inspirations. On it, a character based on Chen Anxia appeared.

Indeed, Chen Anxia provided Kudo Yusaku with ample inspiration, and Kudo Yusaku also planned to include Chen Anxia in his "Dark Night Baron" series.

Furthermore, this character, modeled after Chen Anxia, ​​might very well become the Dark Night Baron's lifelong enemy.

Meanwhile, in another corner of the same room, Hattori Heiji was also lost in thought, just like Kudo Shinichi.

Similarly, Hattori Heiji's fighting spirit was also fully ignited. His eyes, filled with fighting spirit, were fixed on the snow scene outside the window, and he firmly thought to himself, "Chen Anxia, ​​next time, I will definitely defeat you!"

Beside her, Kazuha Toyama looked at Heiji Hattori and murmured to herself with a touch of infatuation, "Heiji is so handsome when he's serious!"

Not far from Hattori Heiji, Hattori Shizuka was recording the precious moments between Hattori Heiji and Shizuka while making a phone call.

A moment later, after the call connected, a dignified male voice came through, saying, "Jinghua, didn't I tell you not to call me while I'm at work!"

Hattori Shizuka didn't seem to care and said directly, "Our son lost."

Hattori Heizo, on the other end of the phone, was taken aback upon hearing this.

Immediately, with Hattori Heizo's deductive reasoning ability, he deduced something in an instant.

Hattori Heizo knew that Hattori Shizuka's "loss" referred to a loss in reasoning.

However, if it were just a loss, Hattori Shizuka wouldn't have called her specifically. So there's only one possibility: the person who defeated Heiji is no ordinary person.

Thinking about it, Hattori Heizo frowned slightly and asked, "Tell me what happened."

Upon hearing this, Hattori Shizuka did not hesitate and directly told Hattori Heizo the whole story, including the details of Chen Anxia.

Hattori Heizo listened silently until Hattori Shizuka finished speaking, then slowly said, "I understand."
