“Mom, Mom…!”

Xiaolan stood on the right side of Kisaki Eri and looked at her anxiously.

Kudo Shinichi's blue eyes looked at the dark brown wall behind him on the left, and he unconsciously recalled the way Eri smacked him on the head when he was a child. A drop of sweat flowed down his cheek, and he commented with a shadow in his heart:

“It’s so scary…”

Dongfang Haoyue's spirit body stood on the gray tatami in Maori Kogoro's spirit world, rubbing his fingers to relieve his anxiety, and said nervously in the spirit world:

“So fierce…!”

Maori Kogoro's spirit body was lying on the tatami in the spirit world, with his eyes closed and his hands flat on both sides of his hips. He eavesdropped on Dongfang Haoyue's spirit body as usual, and secretly agreed in his heart:

"Yeah, I think Eri is fierce, too."

“Um, um…”

Harumi Matsuzaki stood behind Eri Kisaki to the right, facing Kogoro Mori, and was forced to endure the tense atmosphere on the scene. A drop of cold sweat flowed on her cheek, and she turned stiffly 180 degrees.

Harumi turned back to look at Kogoro and said goodbye as calmly as possible:

"If I'm sorry to bother you, I'll go check if Guihezi is awake. I'm worried that she might..."

"That's right."

Kudo Shinichi regained his composure, turned his head slightly to the left, glanced at the wall behind him with his blue pupils, and said in the voice of Maori Kogoro, lightly exerting psychological pressure:

"Is that still bothering you?"

When Matsuzaki Harumi heard this, she was stunned and slowly turned back.

Kissing Eri and Xiaolan were slightly stunned and extremely surprised.

Kudo Shinichi chuckled calmly and said:

"I can understand your thoughts. After all, before Miss Gui Hezi wakes up, no one knows whether she will suddenly fall ill and die.

This means a critical moment of murder or attempted murder.”

"what?"

Xiaolan, Eri Kisaki and Harumi Matsuzaki uttered monotonous syllables with different emotions.

Kudo Shinichi said calmly and firmly:

“This whole incident was not an accident but a criminal act with the intention of killing someone.

The criminal carried a sea snake with him and deliberately attacked Miss Gui Hezi.

Yes, that’s right…”

Kudo Shinichi dragged out his words with great charm, staring intently at the towering bookcase not far ahead that was stacked with a large number of medical books, and pointedly exposed:

"You are the culprit!!

Matsuzaki Harumi!"

A few drops of sweat flowed down Matsuzaki Harumi's cheeks, her hands hung at her sides, not knowing where to put them, and she was unable to speak for a moment.

Xiaolan looked at Maori Kogoro in disbelief, clenched her fists and waved them to her waist, trying to defend Harumi anxiously:

"But......"

"There's something wrong with the tooth marks left by the sea snake."

Kudo Shinichi narrated calmly:

“In fact, the mouth of the half-ringed flat-tailed sea snake is very small, especially the one Xiaolan found... It is about 40 centimeters.

When sea snakes like this attack humans, they can only bite weak spots like fingertips at best.

However, the sea snake violated common sense and left teeth marks on the back of Miss Gui Hezi's hand. In other words..."

Kudo Shinichi paused for two seconds and said sternly:

"This was done intentionally by the criminal!"

Kudo Shinichi narrowed his eyes and reasoned seriously:

"While Miss Gui Hezi was drowning, the criminal quickly approached her, grabbed the neck of the sea snake he was carrying and hiding in the dark, forcefully opened the sea snake's mouth, and bit Gui Hezi recklessly!"

Kudo Shinichi restrained his emotions, pondered and put psychological pressure on himself:

"Am I right, Ms. Harumi?"

Harumi Matsuzaki was so distraught that she could hardly speak.

"Is that so?"

Hibiki Eri folded her hands, gently grasped the soft arm, closed her eyes, and chuckled with interest:

"You pretend to be confused but pay close attention to everything.

At this point, may I ask you a few questions, Detective?"

Without waiting for Maori Kogoro's reply, Kisaki Eri opened her beautiful eyes, looked at him leisurely, and asked gracefully:

"Why do you think Miss Harumi is the criminal? What is your basis?"

Fei Yingli paused for a second and made a well-reasoned defense:

"Harumi wasn't the only one who approached Takawako at the time. Others could have done what you just said, right?"

Kisaki Eri paused for two seconds, and then followed Maori Kogoro's question, asking knowingly:

"Everyone thought that Takako was drowning and they went to save her. This is obviously a coincidence. Shouldn't the criminal have anticipated this and brought a sea snake with him in advance?"

"If the drowning was not a coincidence, but Miss Guihezi drowned on purpose..."

Kudo Shinichi asked calmly:

“Does my reasoning hold water?”

"Deliberately drowning...?"

Xiaolan was stunned and looked confused.

Kudo Shinichi deeply imitated Maori Kogoro and explained with a chuckle:

“When a man and a woman are dating, one of them always wants to know if the other person really cares about the relationship.

In order to observe the other person’s reaction, that person may deliberately seek out friends of the opposite sex, or may…”

A drop of sweat flowed down Kudo Shinichi's forehead, and he suppressed his embarrassment and loudly revealed:

“Maybe she’s not wearing her wedding ring on purpose!!”

Dongfang Haoyue almost couldn't hold it anymore.

In the spiritual world, she held her hands to her stomach, laughed up to the sky with extreme joy and said:

"Hahahahaha, Shinichi is so brave!!!

He actually used Detective Maori's voice to tease Aunt Eri. If Detective Maori knew about this, Shinichi would be finished~~~!"

Maori Kogoro listened to what Dongfang Haoyue said, trying to keep his spirit body calm, and complained in his heart:

"You little brat solved the case so you can solve it, but why did you bring up the fact that Eri wasn't wearing her wedding ring?

How can I face Eri after this?"

at the same time.

Kisaki Eri slowly put down her hands, and her beautiful face showed a complex expression of three parts embarrassment and seven parts speechlessness.

Xiaolan stared at Maori Kogoro in a daze, and gradually accepted the reality and confirmed:

"Could it be that Miss Takako really..."

"Correct."

Kudo Shinichi's blue eyes looked towards the wall behind him and he said calmly:

"Ms. Takako and Mr. Masahiko are about to get married. Before the wedding, in order to test whether Masahiko, who cannot swim, has the selfless love for her, Takako performs a drowning performance in public.

The evidence is that Haoyue and Shinichi, who were present at the time, heard that Guihezi was confused and wanted to confirm whether Yayan would go into the water to save her. She even muttered to herself... That's great."

Dongfang Haoyue was slightly stunned, and praised in surprise in the spiritual world:

"Eh?

Before, when I was sitting in Aunt Eri's car and listening to Shinichi seriously reasoning about the case, I didn't think there was anything wrong.

Now that I think about it... Shinichi is able to pay attention to the outside world while chatting with me, which is amazing."

"But."

Xiaolan looked at Maori Kogoro with complicated thoughts, and asked incomprehensibly:

"Ms. Takako and Mr. Masahiko are supposed to be getting married next week, so why did Takako test Masahiko's feelings today?"
