Anyway, before Ты read this thing, there's a note: The Автор of this guide (who is me) is a 12 year-old male. If Ты really want to know how to make cases, continue reading. But, this is (once again) an opinion from a 12 year-old kid.
Ya ready? Let's begin!
Elements in Making a Murder Case
The Plot : This is the very introduction of the case. Make sure Ты must introduce the characters properly.
The Problem: This introduces the very case. Also, make sure to state where the crime scene happened and when and how was the victim killed. Also, Ты must leave clues so that the reader will/might be challenged easily. Example: Someone murdered (name of the victim) at the (name of the place) around (time) - (time). The victim was (cause of death). There is/are (clues).
The Suspects: Make sure Ты Список down the suspects and (if necessary) their age. But, Ты can do that at the introduction.
The Alibis: Make sure every suspect has an alibi. But make sure that they are not perfect so that the case will be even еще easier или Ты can make them perfect so that the case gets hotter. But, make sure Ты will leave a small hole to reveal the trick behind the murderer's alibi.
The Pre-Plan: Mostly known as 'The Investigation'. Make sure Ты know what will the solver/detective will do next.
The Evidences Found: This is where Ты will Список down the evidences Ты think the solver/detective saw. Also, make sure Ты listed down who owns those evidences. AND, make sure that Ты already planned the evidences before-hand so that Ты won't get confused.
The Post-Plan No. 1: The plan AFTER The Investigation.This is when the solver/detective will investigate the items/evidences (like checking fingerprints, blood matching, etc.)
The Results: Write down the possible results seen after checking the evidences. Example of that is during the 'Strange Threatening Letter' Case (found at the 'Make a Case Contest' forum), when Heiji and Conan realized that the blood found on the pen and Sakuba's blood are the same.
The Post-Plan No. 2: The Plan after checking The Results. This is where the solver/detective tries fitting the pieces together.
The Resolution: At this state first, this is where the solver/detective will reveal the criminal. Also, make sure Ты highlight its name.
The Deduction: Three things will be tested here:
Prediction: This is where Ты will test your skills in predicting things where Ты will use your evidences to explain the criminal's trick. For every explanation, leave an evidence.
Stating the obvious: This is where Ты will test your skills in stating the obvious where Ты will explain some things about the case which are rather obvious.
Answering the 'what if' questions: This is where Ты will test your skills in answering the criminal's doubts to your deduction. Make sure Ты have the right evidence so that the readers will really believe that that person is the criminal.
At the end of the deduction, state out the crucial proof which is found neither on the criminal, или somewhere else.
The Criminal's Motive: This is where Ты will state the criminal's motive for killing the victim.
Now, this is the very end so, anymore questions, Комментарий at this Статья или check the 'Strange Threatening Letter' Case at the 'Make a Case Contest Forum'.
