Ke Xue: Ai-chan and I have an agreement

Chapter 17: Diplomat Murder Case (Part )

Soon, Inspector Megure arrived at the crime scene.

"It's you again." After seeing Maori Kogoro, Inspector Megure couldn't help but complain, "Why do you always appear at the death scenes recently?"

"You are not the god of plague, are you? Wherever you go, people die."

Inspector Megure, you got the truth, but unfortunately you guessed the wrong person for the God of Plague.

Yuichi Shiina silently looked at Conan who had started wandering around the corpse, and was speechless.

"Don't say that, Officer Megure." Maori Kogoro scratched his head and said, "It should be said that the case is calling me, Maori Kogoro."

After hearing this, Inspector Megure's eyes turned into crescents, and his expression was full of speechlessness.

Suddenly, out of the corner of his eye, he saw Shiina Yuichi watching the show on the side.

"Hey, I didn't expect you to be here today, brother Shiina."

Yuichi Shiina didn't expect that Inspector Megure would come up and talk to him.

"By the way, you haven't taken your statement yet about the case of Sayuri Matsumoto," Officer Megure reminded.

It seems like this is happening.

Shiina Yuichi recalled.

However, because of Gin's incident, I forgot about it later.

"Sorry, I forgot." Shiina Yuichi said with a little apology.

"It's okay, it's okay. You helped us solve the case, and I haven't thanked you properly yet. Just find a time to take the notes."

Inspector Megure put his arm around Shiina Yuichi's shoulder, then used his hand to block other people's view and asked quietly.

"By the way, brother Shiina, have you noticed anything wrong with this case?"

Shiina Yuichi really wanted to say it, he saw the murderer take action, but he really couldn't say it.

It’s so troublesome to take notes.

He was indeed very idle, but not so idle that he would go to the Metropolitan Police Department for no reason.

So, I'm sorry, Inspector Megure.

"No." Shiina Yuichi shook his head. Seeing Inspector Megure looking a little disappointed, he still gave him a tactful reminder.

"Look at that dark guy. He might have discovered something. I heard he's a high school detective from Osaka."

Inspector Megure followed Shiina Yuichi's finger and saw a young man wearing a hat observing the corpse.

"Have you found anything? Detective from Osaka." Inspector Megure was skeptical.

"What can we find? There are no external injuries on the body. It's obvious that they were together..." Kogoro Mouri said indignantly when he saw that Inspector Megure didn't ask him at the first time.

"Can you please look carefully? This must be..." Conan couldn't bear it anymore after hearing Kogoro Mouri's arbitrary words, and pointed at the corpse and said.

"Poison."

Hearing someone say the answer, Conan also agreed.

"Yes, poison."

Um? who is it?

Conan looked up at the person who had just spoken in confusion.

Yes, Hattori Heiji.

"This person was poisoned and murdered. There is a small red dot at the root of his hair, and there is a needle next to it that looks like the murder weapon."

"The deceased died with his hands on his cheeks, but according to my inference, someone must have poisoned him and then deliberately put him in this position."

Hattori Heiji said in a firm tone.

"That doesn't rule out the possibility of suicide," Kogoro Mouri retorted.

"Look closely at the body. His lips and the front ends of his hands and feet have begun to turn purple."

"Also, there are blood spots on the conjunctiva of the eye, which is evidence that he died of suffocation."

"But there were no signs of strangulation or drowning found in the room or on his body."

"So, the most likely scenario is that someone injected him with a nerve-paralyzing toxin, and it was a highly toxic toxin that took effect very quickly."

"Plus, the deceased had body temperature and did not show signs of rigor mortis or postmortem morbidity."

“It is enough to infer that the deceased died within thirty minutes of us entering this room.”

His series of words surprised everyone. This seemingly young high school student actually had such a wealth of knowledge.

Now Inspector Megure believes that the dark-skinned young man in front of him is a real talent.

"Officer, who told you that I have made a discovery?"

"Of course it's Brother Shiina." Inspector Megure sold out Shiina Yuichi without saying a word.

oh?

Hattori Heiji and Conan looked at Shiina Yuichi at the same time.

"Are you a detective too?" Hattori Heiji came up to Shiina Yuichi and asked, with a fire called 'victory' burning in his eyes.

What are you doing? I just want to watch a show!

And didn’t you just say it very well?

I want to applaud you, but the part about poisoning is not quite right.

"No, I'm a freelancer." Shiina Yuichi responded.

"Then how did you know I had made a discovery?"

Obviously, Hattori Heiji didn't buy his account.

Damn, you detectives are really annoying, in every way.

"Don't force me. If you force me, neither of you two little brats will have any fun." Shiina Yuichi thought viciously.

When he saw the murderer poisoning, he recalled the case.

When he saw this scene for the first time, he also sighed at the murderer's courage to commit the crime in public.

But he didn't intend to get involved in this case, so Shiina Yuichi decisively chose to shut up.

Seeing that Shiina Yuichi no longer paid attention to him, Hattori Heiji was very unhappy.

This guy is so rude.

Soon, the turning point of the case came.

After questioning relevant personnel, Inspector Megure learned that the room was locked from the inside and the only exit was the study door. There were only two keys, one was on the deceased and the other was in the hands of Tsujimura Kimie.

After finding the keys in the double pocket of the deceased's pants.

Hattori Heiji's attention was drawn to the scene, and after some reasoning, he concluded that this was a murder case in a closed room.

Of course, Yuichi Shiina, who knew the truth, did not take it seriously.

Bullshit locked room murder case.

How can there be a secret room when someone poisons you in front of you?

Shiina Yuichi's disgruntled expression was caught by Hattori Heiji who was secretly watching him.

"Mr. Shiina, don't you agree with my inference?"

"No, my face just feels a little itchy." Of course Shiina Yuichi couldn't admit it.

Hattori Heiji frowned. He felt that this man named Shiina Yuichi obviously knew something but just refused to say it.

Well, let's have a competition.

Conan had a runny nose, was sneezing, and felt extremely uncomfortable, but even so, he still held his head high, trying to find more clues.

Apart from anything else, Yuichi Shiina still admires Conan's persistence in the case.

Next, Inspector Megure asked the suspects what they were doing at the time of the victim's death as usual to confirm their alibi.

"Inspector Megure, we found that there was something wrong with the keys on the deceased. There was tape inside." A forensic officer showed the deceased's keys.

Just as he said, there was a small piece of white tape inside the key cover, with a raised gap in the middle, as if something had passed through it.

Hattori Heiji looked at the key ring thoughtfully. Soon he seemed to have thought of something and quickly ran to the door of the study to observe.

Conan also wanted to go forward and take a look, but after taking two steps, he suddenly covered his chest in pain.

After a while, he fell to the ground weakly.

Shiina Yuichi raised his eyebrows slightly, is he going to transform into Kudo Shinichi?

"Conan." Ran Mouri was shocked by Conan's reaction and exclaimed, then quickly went forward and picked up Conan.

Upon seeing this, Inspector Megure immediately ordered his men to call a doctor.

When he turned his head, he found that Hattori Heiji was gone.

"Where did that high school student go?"

Koike Fumio, who was standing nearby, said, "The high school student asked me about the location of the Japanese-style room and then left."

Japanese-style room?

Conan was breathing rapidly, his body was hot, and he looked very uncomfortable. After hearing these two words, he thought of Hattori Heiji's actions just now and had a guess in his mind.

On the other side, in the Japanese-style room, Hattori Heiji found what he was looking for in the trash can.

Then he slowly walked back to the crime scene.

He had a grasp of the methods and the murderer in this case.

When he walked to the door, he happened to pass by Conan, who was taken away by Mouri Ran to the room to rest. Conan glanced and found the fishing line that Hattori Heiji had not yet completely put into his pocket.

Could it be that this guy...

At the door, Shiina Yuichi looked at Conan who was being carried away with amusement.

Wait a minute, this kid is going to perform his body extension technique.

If I record the transformation process myself, it would be considered as having something on Kudo Shinichi.

Hehe, this trip was worth it.
