Conan: I Am Not a Snake Spirit

Chapter 3748 The reasoning game in the ramen shop

"Okay!" Sera Masumi readily agreed and stood up impatiently, "What do you need my help with?"

"Wait for me here for a few minutes. I'll get the water pipe." Chi Feichi turned around and picked up the alarm clock that Ogura Gongya used to cook noodles. He lowered his head and adjusted the alarm time. "Before I leave, I will Let me tell you some of the information I know. You can try to find the answer to the incident yourself. The same goes for everyone else. We can all think about who the culprit is..."

"A reasoning activity after dinner?" Suzuki Sonoko's eyes lit up, she turned around and looked around the entire ramen shop, and deliberately spoke in a calm tone like a newspaper announcement, "On a seemingly ordinary evening, a group of people with different identities... People gathered in a small store, and suddenly someone talked about a certain incident, and it was revealed that the criminal was someone in the store. So, everyone began to look for the criminal hidden among everyone, and a confrontation between cover-up and exposure began... This It’s just like the plot in an early mystery novel!”

Mao Lilan, Ogura Koya and others were all excited by what Suzuki Sonoko said, not to mention Conan and Sera Masumi. These two detectives had long been full of desire to explore the truth. Although they tried hard to control the restlessness in their hearts, they still couldn't. The anticipation is still written on his face and eyes.

"Brother Chi, the important information you mentioned..."

"What on earth is it?"

"After the robbery and murder incident, the police suspected that the suspicious person was among Mr. Zhongxi, Mr. Shui Ke, and Miss Zhuangye. They asked them to go to the Metropolitan Police Department for investigation," Chi Feichi followed calmly and put the The adjusted alarm clock was placed on the bar and he looked at the three diners who had put down their chopsticks. "However, the police did not find any useful clues..."

"Of course," Shono Yuna said immediately, "because I am innocent!"

"I just ate ramen at my favorite restaurant after get off work," Zhong Xixiu looked helpless, "I didn't expect to be suspected like this..."

"Yeah, I was really unlucky that day," Mizuko Munsuke complained speechlessly, "If I had known, I wouldn't have come here to eat that day!"

Faced with the statements of the three people, Chi Feichi did not directly point out that someone was lying, and continued to talk about the important information he had, "According to the police investigation, these three people all know the victim, Miss Dunda Atsuko, and Miss Zhuangye used to know Dunda." Miss Tian works as a waitress in the same store. After Miss Zhuangye changed her job last year, the relationship between the two The number of connections has become less and the relationship has become estranged. Mr. Nakanishi works as a clerk in a company. He is a frequent customer of Miss Duntian’s shop. When he goes to that store, he often names Miss Duntian to receive him. As for Mr. Shui Ke, he used to I worked in a convenience store across from Ms. Tonta’s house, but that convenience store closed a few days before the incident..."

"That is to say, all three of them may know the time when Miss Dunda goes out to work every day, right?" Conan quickly grasped the key to this information.

"That's right," Chi Feichi looked at Kokura Ogura, "In addition, the boss of Ogura told me that Miss Tonta didn't frequent the Ogura ramen shop very often, but one time Miss Tonta drank too much and came to the shop. While eating ramen, he showed off to others that he had a pair of earrings worth millions..."

"How many million?" Mao Lilan was surprised.

"Yes, that's what Ms. Dunda said at the time. She said that it was given to her by a wealthy customer and was worth several million. She usually keeps the pair of earrings in the cabinet because she was there that day. She only put on her earrings on her birthday." Koya Ogura looked at Zhong Xixiu and the others. Influenced by Chi Feichi, he also said what he knew seriously, "That night, Mr. Zhong Xi and Shui Mr. Ko and Ms. Shono were also in the store. Ms. Tonta drank too much and spoke a little too much to the three of them. She said that Ms. Shono was an unpopular waitress and Mr. Nakanishi was stingy for drinking without giving any gifts. The clerk said that Mr. Shui Ke was a disgusting guy who could only stare at her from behind the convenience store window, and that they would never be able to afford such expensive earrings in their lifetime..."

Zhong Xixiu and the others looked a little embarrassed when they saw that Ogura Kōya still remembered what happened that night.

"When I worked with her before, she had that kind of arrogant character," Shono Yuna frowned, "Anyway, she and I no longer work together, and she can't affect my work and life, so I just Whatever she says!"

"She drank a lot that night and seemed a little forgetful." Zhong Xixiu's expression was not very good. "But after that night, I decided not to ask her to receive me again in the future!"

"But, she actually said that I peeked at her through the convenience store window, and said that I was disgusting and so on. It was really too much." Sosuke Mizuko showed a bit of displeasure, "I only occasionally work When I’m not busy, I pay attention to the people passing by the convenience store. This is just my habit, and I don’t just look at her!”

"All three of you know the victim, and have been laughed at by the victim," Suzuki Sonoko held her chin with her right hand and looked at the three of them with suspicion. "All three of you may kill her out of resentment..."

"Hey, hey," Shono Yuna said hurriedly, "How could I kill someone just because of something like this?"

Zhong Xixiu also said, "I just plan to ignore her!"

"Yes," Shuike Zongfu agreed, "I won't kill anyone just because of a few words of ridicule, just ignore her!"

"If it's not a revenge killing, then let's go back to the police's previous inference. The criminal broke into the house for money and killed Miss Tonda after being discovered..." With a knowing smile on her face, Sera Masumi looked at Chi Feichi and asked, "Brother Feichi, did the police find the earrings worth millions in Miss Tonda's house afterwards?"

"Because Mr. Ogura only remembered the earrings when he was chatting with me today, and only told the police about the earrings today, so the police are still looking for the earrings," Chi Feichi said truthfully, "No one has been found that matches Mr. Ogura and Ms. Ayano for the time being. The earrings described by the elder sister. "

Sera Masumi nodded thoughtfully, "Is that so..."

Chi Feichi continued, "On the night of the incident, after Officer Miyamoto arrived at the Ogura Ramen Shop, he did not let anyone leave the shop. Afterwards, the police checked the belongings of Mr. Nakanishi, Mr. Mikuko, and Ms. Shono, but did not find the earrings or anything similar to earrings. Among them, Mr. Nakanishi had a wallet, his house keys, company documents, a mobile phone, a handkerchief in his pocket and briefcase..."

Sera Masumi, Conan, and Suzuki Sonoko immediately took out their notebooks and recorded the information Chi Feichi mentioned.

Mouri Ran looked at the three people and was a little entangled.

If there are three people recording information, she doesn't need to remember it, right?

But if she didn't take notes, she would seem a bit out of place, just like when everyone was listening and taking notes in class, but she was just sitting there, feeling awkward...

Chi Feichi slowed down his speech to take care of the three people taking notes, "Mr. Shui Ke has a coin purse, a cell phone, a mask, his house keys, and a glasses case in his coat pocket, and Ms. Shono's handbag contains a wallet, cigarettes, a lighter, gum, a cell phone, a handkerchief, napkins, and house keys..."

Suzuki Sonoko took notes while trying to find something suspicious, "Ms. Shono carries too many things with her, right?"

"This is my habit," Shono Yuna explained speechlessly, "Actually, wallets, cell phones, handkerchiefs, etc. The things are all daily necessities, right? Plus I'm addicted to smoking, so I'll take cigarettes, lighters and chewing gum when I go out, so it looks like there are more things..." Suzuki Sonoko couldn't refute, and smiled awkwardly, "That's true..." "This is the information I want to tell you," Chi Feichi reached out and pressed the alarm button of the alarm clock, letting the alarm clock enter a five-minute countdown, "I'll go get the water pipe, and then you have five minutes to think about it. I hope you will gain something." "Five, five minutes?!" Suzuki Sonoko saw Chi Feichi turn around and walk behind the bar, and hurriedly said, "How can this time be used!" Conan didn't say anything, lowered his head and stared at the records in the notebook, thinking seriously. If they were asked to investigate an incident with no clues, five minutes would definitely not be enough, but looking at the information provided by Brother Chi, Brother Chi should have the answer in his mind, and the information provided for them should also be related to the truth of the incident... In other words, this is not an incident investigation, but just a puzzle. Brother Chi told them all the clues of the puzzle, they just need to sort out the clues, connect them together, and find the truth, that's it. Masumi Sera also silently lowered her head and looked at the notebook, her heart full of fighting spirit.

Although compared to a normal investigation, this is more like a reasoning game where adults ask questions and children answer them. As the child who participated in answering the questions, she felt a little complicated, but because the questions were not easy and Conan, who also participated in the decryption, was very capable, she did not feel that she was underestimated...

If only she could think of the answer faster than Conan!

Think quickly, think quickly! The answer must be hidden in these clues!

Suzuki Sonoko saw Chi Feichi leave without looking back, and saw Conan and Masumi Sera burying their heads in the clues. Suddenly, she felt a sense of urgency and stared at the clues in the notebook, but her mind was a mess.

Hey, how are we going to find clues in five minutes...

"Do we have to wait here for another five minutes?" Shono Yumi looked down at her watch, "I want to go to work at the store tonight..."

"I also want to go home early to watch TV," Mikuko Sosuke turned his head and looked at the entrance of the ramen shop, "There is a late-night TV show tonight, I have been looking forward to it for several days..."

"I don't have anything to do tonight," Nakanishi Osamu was also a little hesitant, "But I still have to go to work tomorrow, if possible, I don't want to go home too late to rest."

In the corner, the fashionable woman smiled and said, "Are you three going to leave like this? If you wait here for a while tonight, you may find out the truth of the incident, so you don't have to worry about being suspected of anything, right?"
