[Comprehensive] This onmyoji is a bit European

Chapter 10 [SSR!] Did you find anything?

The butler brought the three of them into the living room, where Mori Kogoro and Aida Ryuichi were already sitting and waiting, and beside them was a strange woman who also wore a kimono.Dinner has been set on the table, and the rich dishes make people's appetite whetted.

"Come on, Kirishima-kun, sit down quickly, and the two children of Mr. Mori's family, you can sit down as you please." Aida Ryuichi greeted the three of them.

Tou also nodded in response, and sat with Mao Lilan and Conan.

"Let me introduce to you, this is Mrs. Aida's wife, Ms. Aida Naoko." Mori Kogoro introduced to the three of them, "Today's sumptuous dinner was prepared by Mrs. Naoko personally in charge of the kitchen. How about you?" Eat it with gratitude!"

"Please don't say that, Mr. Mori." The woman sitting beside Aida Ryuichi smiled meekly, "It's rare to have so many guests at home. As the host, we naturally have to treat them well."

"Haha, what Naoko said is right, this house hasn't been this lively for a long time." Aida Ryuichi said with a hearty smile, "Okay, let's start eating too, how about trying my chef's skills."

"Long Yi, luckily he hasn't come yet." Aida Naoko reminded softly from the side.

"Ah? Didn't that kid come back a long time ago? Why are you dawdling in the room again?" Hearing this, Aida Ryuichi became dissatisfied.

"Sorry, father, I was just preparing materials for tomorrow's meeting in the room, so I'm a bit late." As soon as Aida Ryuichi finished speaking, Aida Koyuki opened the door and walked in.

"Sit down quickly, the guests are waiting." Aida Naoko warmly greeted Aida Koyuki to sit down, and added a pair of bowls and chopsticks for him.

"Thank you mother." Koyuki Aida thanked him with downcast eyes, and then smiled apologetically at Kogoro Mori, "I'm really sorry, Mr. Mori, for making everyone wait so long."

Mori Kogoro waved his hand immediately, expressing that he didn't care, but Aida Ryuichi next to him had been gloomy since he mentioned Aida Yuki just now, and he didn't know what he was angry about.

It wasn't until everyone started to move their chopsticks that Toya put away his eyes on Koyuki Aida, and began to eat the dinner on the table with his lowered eyes, but the probing eyes of the kid next to him made him feel a little nervous. uncomfortable.

Putting down his chopsticks, Touya turned his head to look at Conan who hadn't come and looked away, wondering what this brat was doing staring at him all the time, did he get something on his face?

The other party's dark eyes just stared at him calmly, Conan lowered his head in embarrassment and fiddled with the vegetables on the dinner plate in front of him.No way, the way this guy looked at Yukiyuki Aida just now made him feel a little indifferent.

It's almost the same as the look in my eyes when I first met!

While thinking about something in his head, Conan looked back and forth at Aida Koyuki who was sitting across from him.

Suddenly there was a piece of fish on the plate in front of him. Conan looked at Touya who retracted his chopsticks in confusion, not understanding his actions just now.

"...don't look around when you're eating." After a long while, Tou Ye spoke slowly, and then picked up some vegetables for Conan.

...I have no idea what this guy is thinking.

"Ah! Conan, just tell me what you want to eat." Mao Lilan, who was about to ask Conan what he wanted to eat, happened to see this scene, "You can't keep bothering others."

"No, no, sister Xiaolan..." Conan smiled, and made a wink at Chaotou, wanting to explain to Mao Lilan, who knew that this guy didn't even care about it, and just held the porcelain bowl to himself Sip the miso soup inside.

How infuriating this guy!

Inexplicably, Mao Lilan taught Conan to bite the fish that Touye had just picked up for him as if to vent his anger.

"Haha, when children are still growing up, it's good to eat more fish." Koyuki Aida smiled gently, and gave Conan a piece of fish without fishbone on the plate, "It doesn't matter if you eat more .”

"...Thank you." The corners of Conan's mouth twitched uncontrollably after receiving two pieces of fish for no apparent reason.

Seeing the deflated expression of the kid in glasses, Touye was in a good mood and picked up some vegetables for the other party, and then received the other party's angry eyes.

The atmosphere of the dinner was very good. Ryuichi Aida kept clinking wine glasses with Kogoro Mori, talking loudly about his entrepreneurial history back then, and encouraged Kogoro Mori to join his company as his private detective.

"Okay, hubby, you're a little drunk." Naoko Aida frowned, and took away Ryuichi Aida's glass, "The doctor said that your blood pressure has been relatively high recently, it's better to drink less alcohol."

"That's right, father, don't patronize drinking. It's rare for mother to go to the kitchen today. It would be a pity not to eat so many dishes." Aida Xingyu also persuaded.

"Hmph, just take care of yourself. Does it matter to you whether I drink or not?" Aida Ryuichi was obviously a little drunk. He took the wine glass from Aida Naoko, filled another glass of wine, and held it up to Kogoro Mori. Cup, "It's rare for Mr. Maori to visit the humble house today. It would be shameful not to drink a few more glasses with him, isn't it, Mr. Maori!"

"Hey, that's right!" Mori Kogoro, who was a little tipsy from the alcohol stimulation, also raised his glass.

"Father, don't you still have work later? You drink less." Mori Lan put down his chopsticks and persuaded worriedly, but Mori Kogoro didn't listen to the persuasion at all, and continued to clink wine glasses with Aida Ryuichi.

"Really!" Mao Lilan sighed helplessly. Her father who is a detective can't stop drinking.

"It's okay, let's stay here tonight. There are still many spare rooms in the house. If Mr. Mori is drunk, let him rest in the room for a night." Aida Yuki comforted, "My father usually likes it very much. He's been drinking, and his health isn't in good shape recently, and he made a health plan for him but completely ignored it."

"Mr. Xingzhi can still take care of himself, he looks so good." Conan who was on the side suddenly said.

"Yeah, this kid usually pays attention to his eating habits." Aida Naoko continued, "he seldom drinks alcohol or eats greasy food, so he has always been in good health...why doesn't his father learn Learn from this son."

As he spoke, Aida Koyuki looked at Aida Ryuichi with a faint dissatisfaction in his eyes.

"Don't say that, mother." Aida Koyuki comforted, "Father must have been annoyed by some things that happened at home recently."

Conan looked back and forth between Aida Naoko and Aida Koyuki several times. He always felt that the way the mother and son got along was a bit strange... and Aida Ryu's attitude towards his son.

After the dinner was over, the servants in the house cleared away the dishes on the table and made a cup of hot tea for several people.

Ryuichi Aida took a sip of the hot tea with a little honey and he woke up quite a bit. Standing up, he smiled at Kogoro Mori, "Wait for me first, Mr. Mori, I'll go to the study to sort things out later. The materials used, and then we will go to my room to discuss in detail."

"Oh, yes, yes." Mori Kogoro replied dazedly.

After Aida Ryuichi left, Aida Naoko and Aida Yuki left behind to greet a few people.Aida Naoko chatted with Mori Kogoro about his husband's recent situation, while Aida Koyuki and Mori Ran exchanged their own experience in health care.

Only Toya, who was sitting on the sidelines calmly drinking tea, and Conan, who was bored in every possible way, were left.

Several people waited in the living room for almost an hour, but Aida Ryuichi did not come down. During this time, Aida Naoko went up to see what Aida Ryuichi was doing, but the door of the study was locked, so knock on the door. There was no response from inside, so Aida Naoko was a little worried and called Mori Kogoro and the others.

"Mr. Aida? Mr. Aida?" Mori Kogoro kept knocking on the door, but there was still no response from inside. Because the door was locked from the inside, there was no way to open it by shaking the handle.

"Damn it, is there a spare key for this room?" Mori Kogoro, who had knocked on the door to no avail, turned and asked Aida Naoko.

"No." Naoko Aida shook his head helplessly, "This study is usually only accessed by my husband, so there is only one key, and it should be on him now."

"Tsk, this is troublesome." Mori Kogoro frowned, "Mr. Aida must have fallen asleep inside, after all, he drank so much wine just now."

"Drunk people will snore heavily when they fall asleep." Tou Ye who followed the crowd upstairs said coldly.

"Ah? What do you mean?" Mori Kogoro turned around impatiently.

"It means that if there is no movement inside now, it is not drunk and fell asleep. Mr. Aida may have had an accident!" Conan shouted out before he could explain.

Hearing this, Mori Kogoro changed his expression, and hurriedly called Aida Koyuki together, preparing to forcefully break the door open.

The two of them slammed back and forth a few times with their combined strength before they knocked open the heavy door. Kogoro Mori rubbed his slightly sore shoulder, and when he saw the situation in the study clearly, his expression changed instantly.

Aida Ryuichi was lying motionless on the ground at this moment, his body was surrounded by blood, staining the beige carpet on the ground red, and there was an overturned brown metal bottle lying on his right hand.

"Old man??!!" Aida Naoko suddenly knelt on the ground and cried out in horror.

And Aida Yuki rushed in, trying to lift Aida Ryuichi's shoulders in disbelief.

"Father, father??!!"

"Stand there and don't move! Don't touch Mr. Aida's body!" Mori Kogoro scolded, then approached Aida Ryuichi, squatted down, and stretched out his hand to sniff Aida Ryuichi under Aida Koyuki's sluggish gaze.

"Mao, Mr. Mori?" Naoko Aida asked with a trembling voice.

His expression darkened, Mouri Kogoro sighed helplessly, "Unfortunately, Mrs. Naoko, Mr. Xingyu, Mr. Aida...he is not breathing anymore."

Ah, this is troublesome.

Tou also frowned, facing the suddenly painful atmosphere, he was a little at a loss.

The client died suddenly, so should the commission continue to be processed?

※※※

The police soon arrived at Aida's house, and the head of a fat policeman came over, rolled his eyes and looked at Kogoro Mori who was still observing the corpse.

"Why is it you again, brother Maori?"

"Hey, that's right, Officer Megure, I'm here to help you handle the case again!" Mori Kogoro saluted Police Officer Megure in spirit.

"Hey, you better stay at home obediently, bastard." Officer Mu Mu muttered helplessly.

The two talked in a low voice about the specifics of the case, while Aida Xingyuki comforted Aida Naoko who was sobbing softly, and Mao Lilan also handed her a tissue.

What about the kid with glasses?

After looking around for a week, he couldn't find Conan's figure. Looking into the study, this guy was lying around the corpse and didn't know what he was looking for.

Tou also squinted his eyes, and saw that the child had a serious face, and the black-framed glasses hanging on the bridge of his nose still reflected the light from time to time, and the spirit behind him, who looked exactly like him ten years later, ran out again at this time, Make the same expression as Conan.

Obviously, the spirit behind this has never appeared before...

While Mori Kogoro was distracted from discussing the case with Police Officer Megure, Conan immediately ran forward to observe the corpse to see if he could find any valuable information.

Judging from the current state of the corpse, Aida Ryuichi should have been hit on the back of the head by the metal bottle on his right hand, which caused his death. So where was the original location of the metal bottle?

Conan looked in the opposite direction of the corpse, and there was a tall bookshelf with a lot of books placed in the compartments of the bookshelf. Judging from the distance from the corpse and the angle at which the metal bottle fell, this bookshelf should be the place where the metal bottle was originally placed. Put it in place.

But how did this metal bottle fall?How did it happen to hit the back of the dead man's head?

Conan raised his hand and dragged his chin and began to think, was this purely an accident?Or did someone do it on purpose?

Scanning the desk next to the corpse, Conan narrowed his eyes, squatted down, and reached out to pick up a sharp object that fell on the carpet.

"Is this... sawdust?"

Conan observed a piece of sawdust in his hand, wondering how such a thing could appear near the corpse.But at this time, a plain voice suddenly sounded from behind interrupted his thoughts.

"Did you find anything, Edogawa-kun?"
