Ke Xue: Shinichi and I are childhood friends

Conan's face was gloomy. A foreign woman dressed in black?

She couldn't think of anyone else except Vermouth.

But now he didn't need to do anything extraordinary. With Yuya here, his identity was more suitable for asking this question.

Toru Funamoto grabbed Yuya's clothes and asked: "Brother detective, do you believe me?"

Yuya smiled and nodded: "Of course, so tell me everything you know, okay?"

Toru Funamoto nodded vigorously: "That woman asked me very strange questions."

Yuya: "Strange questions?"

Toru Funamoto: "Accident, she asked me if I really saw the accident. And whether I told my father and mother about this matter."

Accident? Conan's eyes condensed, could it be?

Yuya asked: "What kind of accident was it?"

Toru Funamoto waved his little hand: "That, that is, a woman riding a motorcycle fell from the sky..."

Conan's pupils shrank sharply. This Toru Funamoto was indeed the child at that time.

Yuya hushed--Touji Funamoto closed his mouth subconsciously, narrowed his eyes, and looked sideways at Hondou Eisuke who was staring at the little boy.

Conan also subconsciously looked at Hondou Eisuke.

Hondou Eisuke was startled, and a puzzled expression appeared on his face.

Yuya gave him a mysterious smile, and Hondou Eisuke immediately felt a chill on his back--this person...

Yuya touched Touji Funamoto's head and said, "Have you told anyone else about this?"

Touji Funamoto shook his head: "No, except for my mother, ah, and that foreign woman, I haven't told anyone else."

Yuya nodded: "Very good, Touji brother, don't tell anyone else about this, just whisper to me."

Yuya put his ear close, and Touji Funamoto whispered a few words in his ear, and Yuya made a sound of "Hmm, hmm, so that's it, that's it" from time to time.

Hondou Eisuke watched the two whispering, but couldn't hear anything, and was very anxious.

He wanted to go over and listen, but Yuya's mysterious smile just now made him feel flustered.

After a while, Yuya touched Touji Funamoto's head and said, "Okay, I know everything that happened. Touji, go play on the side first, don't affect the police's investigation."

Touji Funamoto nodded vigorously, grabbed Yuya's sleeve and said, "Detective brother, it must be that foreign woman who killed my mother, you must catch her!"

Yuya smiled and said, "Don't worry, if it was really that person who did it, I will definitely catch her."

Touji Funamoto was taken away by the helper.

Inspector Megure pretended to cough and said, "Brother Kamiya, is there any connection between the car accident and this case?" Why do you have to whisper? What is it that he, an inspector, can't hear?

Yuya said: "I don't know yet, but I think there should be no direct connection between these two things."

"Oh? How do you say that?"

Yuya explained: "If the hostess was killed because of the car accident, then Touji, who knows more about this matter, may also..." He didn't finish his words, but the meaning was already very clear.

Inspector Megure suddenly realized: "So that's it. If this case was caused by seeing the car accident, the most likely possibility is that the murderer thought he saw some secret and wanted to kill her, but he stayed here well, and only the hostess was killed, which means that these two things are not related."

"Then let's talk about this case," Inspector Megure quickly shifted his attention, "The hostess of this house goes to the garbage dump every morning before the garbage collection day to throw away the garbage, and she also goes for a morning run every morning. If the murderer wants to kill people, he should take advantage of these two opportunities."

"Why risk being discovered and sneak into the hostess's room on the second floor and wait for her to come back before killing her?"

Yuya looked up at the second floor: "In that case, let's go to that room and take a look."

Tatsuto Funamoto suddenly said, "Inspector."

Inspector Megure: "What's the matter?"

Tatsuto Funamoto said with some embarrassment, "Can I wait here?"

Inspector Megure looked at the wheelchair under him and the right foot in plaster, and nodded, "Okay."

Conan took the opportunity to go upstairs to get close to Yuya and whispered to him, "Yuya, was that little boy at that time..."

Yuya nodded slightly, "Yes."

Conan was silent. No wonder he thought the child looked so familiar. It was indeed the little boy who appeared at the scene of Mizunashi Rena's car accident. In that case, the foreign woman in black clothes must be Vermouth without a doubt.

At that time, all his attention was on Mizunashi Rena, and things also had FBI suppressed the information about the accident, and the little boy was taken away on the spot, so he forgot about it soon.

But he didn't expect that the organization would find out about it.

After all, it was on an open road at the time, and there would inevitably be passing vehicles and pedestrians.

The organization only needs to follow the route that Rena Mizunashi took at the time, and it is easy to find the vehicles and pedestrians who may have passed by at the time.

Vehicles are relatively easy to find, and the FBI can find ways to keep those people confidential, but pedestrians are a bit troublesome. No one knows how many people saw the car accident at the time. Even if the FBI tries its best to deal with the aftermath, it dare not guarantee that everyone will be found.

The organization may have found a fish that slipped through the net, and knew the scene of the car accident at the time, and also knew that a little boy witnessed the car accident scene at close range, and may have seen the rider's face.

So they followed the clues to find this place and killed the hostess?

No, Conan changed his mind and rejected this idea.

As Inspector Megure said, if Vermouth really came to silence people, given the organization's style, the little boy would definitely not be spared, and even the male host would definitely be silenced.

So someone else killed the hostess? The two things are just coincidences?

But... Conan looked at Hondou Eisuke with deep eyes. It was too coincidental to come here today. Yuya happened to have a commission nearby, and it was just a coincidence that he appeared here.

But they can be said to be here entirely because of Hondou Eisuke's reason and guidance, although Maori Kogoro left early because of Yuya's appearance.

If it was someone else, he might think it was a coincidence, but this person...

Yuuya glanced at Master Funamoto and asked the maid leading the way: "How long has Mr. Funamoto been in a wheelchair?"

The maid said: "About a month. A month ago, Mr. Funamoto went fishing with his colleagues from the company and accidentally broke his leg. According to the doctor, the plaster can be removed in half a month."

Yuuya nodded slightly: "So he is currently living on the first floor?"

The maid shook her head: "No, Mr. Funamoto's room is next to the lady's. When we go upstairs, I will help Mr. Funamoto upstairs first, and then move the wheelchair up."

"I see."

Everyone came to the hostess's room on the second floor. It was a room with a relatively simple layout and only some regular furniture.

But the overall color tone was warm, and it looked warm under the setting sun outside.

Unfortunately, behind this warmth, there was a cold murder case.
