A few days ago, Kogoro Mori received a high-paying commission to investigate an affair. After receiving a deposit from the other party, he began to investigate with all his might.

On the afternoon of the weekend, Mori Kogoro captured the relevant evidence of his cheating eyes. In a good mood, he decided to take everyone to have a big dinner in the evening.

But before that, I have to go to the residence of the client, Mr. Maruden, to report the relevant investigations to the other party, and to get the reward.

After arriving at the residence of the Maruden family, Mori Kogoro and Maruden went into the room to discuss, while Shiraiwa and Mawa stayed in the yard outside, enjoying the fish swimming in the small pond while waiting for Mori Kogoro to complete the commission.

"Damn it, you really did such a thing behind my back. Then, Detective Maori, who is this man beside her?"

Soon after, Mr. Maruden's angry roar came from the room. After all, no matter who knows that he has been cheated by others, he will not be able to control his anger.

"Ding dong ding dong." At this moment, a doorbell rang, slightly extinguishing some of Mr. Maruden's anger.

"A guest is here, does anyone have a look? By the way, because Detective Maori is coming, I asked the servants to go outside for a while. I'm sorry, I invite the guest to the reception room for a while. , be back soon."

Mr. Maruden was about to ask the servants to open the door. He remembered that he had asked the servants to leave temporarily in order to avoid the investigation of the affair being discovered. He had to let Mori Kogoro wait in the room, and he took the new guest to the meeting. Room conversation.

Seeing Mr. Maruden leave, Shiraiwa Maha walked up to Mori Kogoro and asked, "Uncle, is the commission over?"

Mori Kogoro shook his head, and replied with a little joy: "No, Mr. Maruden is going to entrust me to investigate the object of his wife's cheating, and we may need to discuss it for a while. It seems that there will be another commission with a good salary. "

"Okay then, let's wait." Shiraiwa Maha didn't ask any more questions, and returned to Conan and Xiaolan's side, taking out his mobile phone to play games to relieve boredom.

However, what everyone didn't expect was that the wait lasted for two hours, and Mr. Maruden, who had left to meet the guests before, never returned here.

"What's the matter with Mr. Marukawa? It's been two hours. No, I'm going to find him in the reception room." Mouri Kogoro, who was waiting anxiously, left the room angrily and walked towards the reception room of the residence.

"Ah!" Ten seconds later, a woman's terrified scream came from the direction Moori Kogoro left.

"What's wrong?!"

Shiraiwa Maha and the others thought that something was wrong here, so they hurried over, only to find Mori Kogoro sitting on the ground covering his forehead, and opposite him, a fat middle-aged woman also fell on the ground.

The middle-aged woman looked at Bai YanMao and others who suddenly appeared, and asked with some horror: "Who are you?"

Mori Kogoro rubbed his forehead that was sore from the bump, and said angrily, "I still want to ask, who are you?"

Another young woman ran in from the yard, helped the fallen middle-aged woman up, and then replied, "We are maids here, how about you?"

"we are"

Just as Kogoro Mori was about to explain, he was interrupted by the hostess, Mr. Maruden's wife, who came from outside the door.

"Noisy, what happened?" Mrs. Maruden frowned and scolded the maids, then turned to Mori Kogoro and asked, "Who are you? Thieves?"

"It's not a thief! I'm a detective hired by your husband, investigate."

Mori Kogoro hurriedly explained, but found that he had slipped his mouth, so he stopped quickly, and said with an embarrassed smile: "You should ask your husband yourself for the specific situation."

"Detective." Mrs. Maruden's complexion changed slightly, as if she had understood something, she quickly ordered to the two maids: "You two, go and call the master."

"Yes, ma'am."

After the two maids left obediently, Mrs. Maruden quickly approached Mori Kogoro and said in a low voice: "Mr. Detective, as long as you are willing to help me hide the affair, I can give you double the money! "

"Um, madam, I'm sorry, but I can't do this." Although Mori Kogoro loves money, he can still grasp it in principle, and resolutely rejected the temptation of double remuneration.

"Mr. Detective, please think it over."

"what!!!"

Mrs. Maruden did not give up, and was about to continue persuading Mori Kogoro when two maids screamed from the reception room.

Everyone ran over and found two maids lying limp outside the reception room, pointing to the reception room with trembling hands, with You still showing a panic expression on their faces.

Baiyan Maha looked in the direction the maid's arm was pointing at, and when he saw the scene in the reception room clearly, his pupils shrank suddenly.

I saw that Mr. Maruden was pierced through the chest by a dagger and nailed to the wooden cabinet behind him. His body was covered in blood, his mouth was wide open, his eyes were round, and he had an expression of regret.

"Xiaolan, go and notify the police."

Mori Kogoro, who followed Shiraiwa Maha, also saw the scene in the room, and immediately ordered Xiaolan to call the police.

Not long after, the Mumu Police Department led a team, and everyone entered the reception room together to investigate the scene of the crime.

In the hand of Mr. Maruden's corpse, there was also a tachi, and the objects and walls in the reception room were covered with criss-crossing knife marks, which seemed to have been a rather fierce battle.

Such a scene made Bai Yanmao a little puzzled, because he was at the small pool not far away with Conan and others before, but he didn't hear the sound of a fight.

"The name of the deceased is Maru Denjiro, 51 years old, and the owner of this family."

After inspecting the situation at the scene, the Megure Police Department asked Marudentaro, "Excuse me, does Mr. Maruden practice kendo?"

"Yes, it's already at the third level." Mrs. Maruden replied truthfully.

"Three paragraphs, that's really powerful, isn't it? A diary?"

The Megure Police Department didn't know whether it was a compliment out of sincerity or politeness, and suddenly found a notebook next to Mr. Maruden's body, so he picked it up and looked through it.

"It turned out to be an itinerary. It's well arranged. It's very good. It's just a good time to see who will come here today."

The Megure police department turned the itinerary to today's column, and read out the names recorded on it: "Mori Kogoro, Suwa Yuji, Hatano Ikuya, Akutsu Makoto, there are only these four people."

"Meguru Police Department, we found a strange man!"

At this moment, a police report came from the yard, and then a sweaty man was brought in by the Mumu Police Department's subordinates.
