Conan: Another Famous Detective

"So... that's it!" Hattori murmured to himself, with a thoughtful look in his eyes.

On the other side, Officer Yamato smiled and said: "It just so happens that you are over there now. Can you help keep an eye on Ikuro Wakamatsu? We will rush over and arrest him right now!"

Hearing this, Hattori Heiji's expression became a little complicated: "I'm afraid we can't do it..."

"What's wrong?" Officer Yamato asked confused.

"Because of the murder that happened here, the deceased was Ikuro Wakamatsu!" Hattori Heiji replied.

"What did you say?" Officer Yamato was shocked.

"Yes, maybe this matter is more complicated than we thought, but don't worry, Yumiya and I are both here now, and we will investigate the case as soon as possible!"

"Okay! Then hurry up and never let new victims appear. Do you understand?" Officer Yamato said solemnly.

"Don't worry, it won't happen!" Hattori Heiji assured.

The two ended the call.

Hattori told everyone about the death message.

Officer Megure frowned: "In other words, the person who killed President Wakamatsu was actually Mr. Ikuro?"

"No, I'm afraid it's not just Mr. Ikuro." Conan said: "Don't forget, when Miss Yonehara came back, in addition to Mr. Ikuro who was lying on Mr. Wakamatsu's body, there was another person present."

"You mean... Madam?" Mihara's expression changed, and he couldn't help but cover his mouth and exclaimed.

"Hmph! After receiving the news of this death, this is not unexpected." Hattori Heiji smiled and said: "After the lady found the body, she immediately sent Miss Yonehara away, and also specifically emphasized that she should go find Mr. Ikuro by herself."

"I'm afraid that Mr. Ikuro was hiding behind the bathroom door at that time, and his wife who went in to check found Mr. Ikōng, and then helped Mr. Ikōng cover up the news of his death."

"How...how could this happen?" Butler Mihara asked with a look of disbelief.

"Judging from the current clues, this is the most reasonable explanation." Hanemiya Ming said: "Moreover, the murderer who killed Mr. Ikulang today probably also knows this."

"Wait!" Hattori's expression suddenly changed: "Then will the murderer's next target be Madam?"

"It's very possible." Conan's eyes also focused, and he looked at Officer Megure: "Officer Megure, can you check this house? It would be terrible if the murderer also applied poison to other things! "

"This...are you sure that the murderer will really target Madam?" Officer Megure said hesitantly.

"To be on the safe side, at least make sure that Madam herself and the study are safe." Akiya Hanomiya suggested.

Officer Memu nodded slightly when he saw that Yu Gongming had spoken: "Okay, let's check it out."

After a while, the forensic officers came to the study.

After communicating with his wife, the forensic personnel first checked Wakamatsu Serika himself.

After a moment, the forensic officer shouted: "Report! A poison reaction was detected on Madam's hand!"

"What?" Officer Memu outside the door heard the words and immediately entered the room and asked in a deep voice: "Are you sure?"

"There can be no mistake!" the forensic personnel confirmed again.

Neither Wakamatsu Serika nor Shiina and Fujinami in the study looked good-looking.

"Hiss!" Mouri Kogoro gasped: "If we hadn't deduced the murderer's target, Madam might have died if her hands were stained with poison!"

The corner of Wakamatsu Qinxiang's mouth twitched and she said in a trembling voice: "In fact, if you had come a few dozen seconds too late, I might really have died."

"Huh? What's going on?" Hattori asked with a frown.

Wakamatsu Qinxiang pointed to a dictionary next to her: "I was just about to sign the contract that Zuo Zhu put here, but suddenly I couldn't remember how to write the word [ruo] in Wakamatsu."

"So I decided to look it up in a Chinese dictionary, and when I was looking up the dictionary, I had the habit of licking my thumb..."

"This..." Everyone's expressions became a little exciting.

"Ahem! In short, it's best to check the entire study now!" Yu Gongming's words brought everyone back to their senses.

Officer Megure immediately ordered: "Okay! Continue to check the study!"

Forensics personnel are busy again.

After about twenty minutes, the inspection was finally over.

Thankfully, there were no poisonous reactions elsewhere, except in that dictionary.

"It seems that the murderer smeared poison on the dictionary in advance, then let his wife touch the dictionary and get the poison on it, and then used her habit of licking her thumb to poison her." Hattori Heiji analyzed.

"But how did the murderer ensure that Madam would get a dictionary? Is it just a coincidence that Madam suddenly couldn't remember how to write Ruo?"

"This is definitely not an accident!" Hattori Heiji said with absolute certainty: "The murderer must have used a technique similar to Baumkuchen to induce Madam to get the poison-stained dictionary!"

"Madam, what did you do before signing?" Yu Gongming asked.

"I am selecting a suitable text design with the general manager." Wakamatsu Serika replied.

"Oh? Can we see those designs?" Hattori Heiji asked.

"Of course." Wakamatsu Qinxiang nodded.

After confirming that there were no poisons in the mouse and keyboard, Akira Hanomiya, Hattori, and Conan came to the computer and opened the folder at Wakamatsu Serika's prompt.

Then, the word [ruo] in various colors and fonts appeared on the screen.

"Huh? Is this what is called design?" Hattori Heiji asked.

"Yes." Wakamatsu Qinxiang nodded.

Hattori Heiji looked at the various "if" characters that kept flashing on the screen, and the corner of his mouth curled up: "So that's it!"

"I understand too!" Conan also said clearly.

"At this point, it's time to close the case." Akiya Hanomiya said with a smile.

Hattori Heiji frowned: "But the evidence..."

"Don't worry, I didn't gain anything when you went to the bathroom just now." Yu Gongming replied.

Hattori nodded when he heard this: "Then let's close the case,"

The conversation between the few people did not deliberately lower their voices, and everyone present heard it clearly.

"What? Brother Hattori, Brother Hanomiya, do you already know who the murderer is?" Officer Megure asked expectantly.

Hattori smiled and said: "Yes! We already know both the method of killing Madam and the murderer!"

"Then, let's first talk about how the murderer made Madam search the dictionary!" Mouri Kogoro asked curiously.

Hattori Heiji replied: "We will do an experiment and you will understand. Uncle, why don't you come and experience it for yourself?"

"Um... there shouldn't be any danger, right?" Uncle Maori said hesitantly.

"Don't worry! How could we harm you? There won't be any danger!" Hattori Heiji vowed.

"Okay! What do you want me to do?" Mouri Kogoro asked.

"Sit down in front of the computer first." Hattori Heiji instructed.
