Ke Xue: Shinichi and I are childhood friends

"That's right." Yuya briefly recounted the strange commission that Hondou Eisuke found on the Internet.

Inspector Megure suddenly realized: "I see, indeed, if the person who issued the commission was Mr. Funamoto, he could indeed dispose of the pearl necklace and bracelet as garbage and recycle them in the car later."

Takagi Shigeru also thought of the possible connection: "Since you can issue a commission once, you can issue another commission to let people sell the necklace and bracelet, right? Even if they are found out at that time, they can pretend that the murderer discarded the things and then someone picked them up."

Inspector Megure shook his head: "It's a pity that these two things should not be related. Not to mention the trash can, we have also investigated the nearby garbage dump, and did not find the necklace or bracelet."

Fortunately, Japan's garbage classification is still good, otherwise the police officers who went to investigate the garbage dump would probably vomit.

"So..." Hondou Eisuke was extremely disappointed.

He was very sure that the commission was closely related to what he wanted to investigate, but now the two incidents did not seem to be related, so he could only find another way to investigate.

Moreover...feeling Yuya's deep gaze flashing by, Hondou Eisuke couldn't help sweating on his back.

Oops, the behavior just now was too abrupt, I'm afraid it attracted the attention of this detective.

But... Hondou Eisuke pondered, Kamiya Yuya has a very good reputation in the outside world, maybe he can be honest with him?

But can a person's reputation really be so good? Hondou Eisuke hesitated.

Even "Sleeping Kogoro", who is also a famous detective, has some small black materials, such as lust, his wife ran away, etc.

But Hondou Eisuke didn't find any black history about Kamiya Yuya, except that he was a little naughty when he was a child, but how can a child not be naughty? This is not black material at all, and some fans even say that this is a reflection of his intelligence since childhood.

Hondou Eisuke was tangled up, forget it, just keep observing for a while, if he is really a good person, then at that time...

What Hondou Eisuke didn't know was that if Yuya's real dark history was exposed, it would probably cause a shocking earthquake in the entire Japanese detective and police circles.

Of course, Yuya didn't know how many thoughts Hondou Eisuke had flashed through his mind. He looked at the room and saw that there were no extra clues, so he said: "Let's go, let's go find the male owner of this house and talk again."

Everyone came downstairs.

The maid adjusted the air-conditioning temperature in the room, and Tatsuto Funamoto suddenly said, "Xiaomei, I'm a little hungry, and it's almost time for dinner..."

The maid looked at the time and said quickly, "Then I'll go order some food."

Tatsuto Funamoto said quickly, "Wait, why don't you make some yourself? I'm always a little worried about the food outside, and it doesn't taste as good as you make it."

It would be nice for anyone to be recognized for their cooking skills, especially by the owner. She smiled and said, "Okay, I'll do it right away."

Yuuya observed Tatsuto Funamoto, but didn't find anything special. He remembered that Conan found the important clue next to him.

Forget it, he rolled his eyes and whispered a few words to Inspector Megure.

Inspector Megure looked at him in confusion, but still nodded: "I see."

Then he walked towards Tatsuto Funamoto: "Mr. Funamoto, there are still some things I need to ask about the murder of Mrs. Kumamoto."

Tatsuto Funamoto hesitated: "Anything else you want to ask? I have told you everything I know..."

"Well," Inspector Megure smiled, "It's just a routine inquiry."

Yuya looked around, winked at Conan, and walked towards the kitchen.

Conan hurriedly followed him, and Hondou Eisuke looked around to see that no one was paying attention to him, so he quietly followed him.

When they arrived at the kitchen door, Conan asked in confusion: "What are we doing here?"

While observing the layout of the kitchen, Yuya whispered: "I am sure that the murderer is Tatsuto Funamoto..."

Conan nodded in agreement, and his reasoning was the same.

"···Inspector Megure said that no smoke reaction was detected on him, so he must have used some method to isolate the smoke reaction.

There are many methods that can be used, but he is not mobile, and some troublesome props are difficult to handle and easy to expose himself, so I guess he should use some common and easy-to-get things at home..."

Soon, Yuya's eyes stayed on the rubber gloves placed by the sink.

Conan looked over almost at the same time as him.

The maid was about to put on gloves and clean up the unwashed dishes first.The two shouted in unison: "Wait a minute, Miss Xiaomei!"

"Huh?" The maid froze and looked back at the two in astonishment.

Yuya walked over quickly, picked up the rubber gloves and smelled them under the maid's puzzled eyes, and a smile appeared on his face.

Seeing Yuya's smile, Conan's mouth corners slowly curled up.

"Sorry, I'll take this thing first. It's important evidence." Yuya said, and took out a transparent bag to put the gloves in.

Yuya pushed his non-existent glasses, and then said to Conan: "Let's go, it's almost time to end this case."

···

On the second floor, in the room where the lady was killed.

Yuya asked Inspector Megure to gather everyone here.

"Brother Kamiya, is it finally time for the reasoning show?" Inspector Megure asked expectantly.

Yuya nodded slightly, his eyes swept over Toushi Funamoto, and after a moment of hesitation, he looked at the maid: "But before that, I'm a little hungry, can I ask Miss Xiaomei to prepare dinner?"

Everyone was stunned, what does that mean?

The maid didn't think too much, and immediately said: "Then I will prepare it right away, but the vegetables at home are used up and I need to buy them, which will take some time..."

"It's okay," Yuya smiled, "but since you are troubled by cooking, let us buy the vegetables."

He turned to Mao Li Ran and said: "Xiao Ran, can I trouble you?"

Mauri Ran was stunned for a moment, nodded and said: "Of course, I can..."

"By the way, take Conan and little brother Toushi, Mr. Funamoto, okay?"

Tatsuto Funamoto was shocked, and he had some guesses in his heart, but he still pretended to be nothing and said: "Of course, no problem."

"Conan, leave it to you." Yuya winked at Conan.

Conan knew that what happened next was not suitable for Touji Funamoto to know, so he nodded and said, "No problem."

He took the initiative to pull Touji Funamoto, diverted his attention with some topics that children are interested in, and then went out with Mao Lilan.

Inspector Megure thought that Yuya was going to start reasoning, but he wanted to eat? He asked with some dissatisfaction: "Brother Kamiya, what are you doing?"

Yuya sighed and said in a heavy tone: "The following content is not suitable for little brother Touji to hear. He should never think that the person who killed his mother was actually his father... right?"

What?

Everyone looked at Master Funamoto in shock. They originally thought that Yuya's guess just now was just a guess, but they didn't expect the result to be true?

Tatsuto Funamoto's expression was somewhat reluctant: "Detective Kamiya, please don't make such a joke."

Inspector Megure also raised a question: "It is true that Mr. Funamoto was next to the lady's room when the crime happened, but as I just said, his height does not meet the trajectory of the bullet, and he is in a wheelchair, so there is no way to hide the pearl necklace, right?"

Inspector Megure's eyes fell on the plaster on Tatsuto Funamoto's foot: "You don't mean to say that the necklace and bracelet are hidden in the plaster?"

Yuuya shook his head: "This is indeed a good place to hide things, but it is too easy to be discovered."

"I think you should still remember that one of the lady's earrings was placed on the table?"

Inspector Megure recalled: "I remember you said that the lady was called away when she was taking off her earring..."

Yuya said: "In that case, can you imagine why she was called away? She didn't even have time to take off the other earring."

Inspector Megure thought for a while, and Yuya prompted: "Inspector, do you remember what the lady likes to do most at night?"

Inspector Megure: "Look at the stars? But if you look at the stars, you won't be so anxious, right?"

Yuya smiled slightly: "Of course I'm looking at the stars, but they are the kind of stars that only appear for a very short time..."

Inspector Megure didn't get his train of thought, and was a little stunned for a while: "Stars that only appear for a very short time..."

Hondou Eisuke suddenly shouted: "I know, it's a shooting star, right?"

Yuya looked at him with appreciation, and Hondou Eisuke smiled embarrassedly and shrank back again.

Before Inspector Megure could figure out what was so special about the meteor, Takagi Wataru had already figured it out: "I see! If it was a meteor, you would miss it if you didn't look immediately, so the lady didn't bother to take off her earrings and ran to the balcony to look, and she had to look up."

"If she looked up, then if Mr. Funamoto, who was sitting in a wheelchair, shot upward, the bullet would go through the back of his head to his forehead, creating the illusion that a tall man shot downward to kill someone."

Inspector Megure pinched his chin and analyzed: "That's true, ifIf the bullet was upward, it would not leave any traces in the room, and it would fly far out, making it very difficult to find. "

He asked again: "How do you explain the glass on the window?"

Takagi explained: "Because he is in a wheelchair, he can't reach the glass at the top, so he can only break the lower part."

Inspector Megure nodded to indicate that it made sense, and immediately asked: "But what about the pearl necklace and bracelet? Mr. Funamoto is in a wheelchair and needs the help of the maid to go up and down the stairs. There is no way for him to go out and throw away the things, right?"

Yuya smiled slightly: "Have you really checked all the places in the room?"

Inspector Megure said without thinking: "Of course, all the places where things may be hidden have been checked."

"Then...what about the vacuum cleaner?"

"Vacuum cleaner?" Inspector Megure immediately looked at Takagi.

Takagi showed a nervous expression: "Well, that place is not yet... Besides, isn't Mr. Funamoto a robot idiot? Besides, he is in a wheelchair, so there is no way he can use the vacuum cleaner without being noticed by others, right? The vacuum cleaner makes such a loud noise when in use..."

Yuya said: "Indeed, if Mr. Funamoto uses the vacuum cleaner, it will indeed be too conspicuous, but if it is Miss Takami, who is a maid, it will be different, right?"

"Huh?" The maid showed a panicked expression.

Inspector Megure asked hurriedly: "What do you mean?"

"Inspector, what day was yesterday?"

Inspector Megure was stunned and recalled: "Yesterday was February 3rd? It was Setsubun."

Yuya nodded slightly: "Then what do we usually do during Setsubun?"

Inspector Megure said without thinking too much: "Of course it is to throw beans. "

"That's right," Yuya said, "February 3 is Setsubun, also known as the bean-scattering festival. On that day, we would scatter beans to drive away evil spirits and diseases and bring good luck. That night, little brother Touji pestered Mr. Funamoto for a long time. Miss Xiaomei also said that the room was full of his beans, right?"

The maid nodded and said, "Yes, it took me a long time to clean up."

Inspector Megure was a little puzzled: "But, what does the bean-scattering festival have to do with jewelry?"

Yuya reminded: "What are the necklaces and bracelets that the lady is wearing made of?"

Inspector Megure was stunned: "What are they made of? Not pearls...ah! "

He suddenly shouted: "If you take apart the necklace and bracelet and mix the pearls into the beans..."

Youya smiled and said: "That's right, because there are too many beans and fewer pearls, Miss Xiaomei certainly didn't expect that there would be pearls mixed in when she was cleaning the beans. In addition, it was late, she must have thought about cleaning up early and going to rest, so she didn't distinguish when cleaning up. Naturally, those pearls would be taken into the vacuum cleaner as beans."

Youya glanced at Touji Funamoto, who looked grim, and continued: "The case went like this-

First, he played with Touji's little brother in the evening and scattered a lot of beans in the room. When the lady came back, he found an excuse to go to her room and killed her with the method just now.

Then he hung the hook lock, broke the glass on the window, took off the pearl necklace and bracelet, took them apart, and took advantage of the fact that there was no one on the first floor to throw the pearls down and mix them into the beans. Next.

Next, the pearls mixed in the beans will be collected by Miss Xiaomei into the vacuum cleaner. "

Inspector Megure immediately looked at Takagi Wataru: "Go check the vacuum cleaner immediately!"

"Yes!" Takagi Wataru hurried to confirm.

Inspector Megure glanced at Touji Funamoto, who looked ugly, frowned slightly, looked at Yuya and asked: "Then what about the most important evidence? Do you have evidence that can directly prove that the murderer is Mr. Funamoto?"

Yuya smiled slightly: "Of course, if I am not absolutely sure, I will not stand here."

Inspector Megure's mouth twitched slightly. I am asking you for evidence, and you are saying lines here to be cool, right?

Yuya took out the transparent bag from his pocket. Inspector Megure came up and saw that there was a pair of rubber gloves inside.

Yuya said: "Mr. Funamoto did not detect gunpowder smoke reaction, so he should have used some means to isolate himself, and when he was inconvenient to move, he used this rubber glove, which is not only convenient to use, but also does not require him to deal with it personally afterwards. "

Inspector Megure was a little confused: "What do you mean?"

Yuya explained: "Mr. Funamoto only needs Miss Xiaomei to cook in person, and she will definitely use this pair of rubber gloves. In this way, not only will the fingerprints inside be worn away, but the gunpowder reaction outside will also be washed away by water.""It's so convenient."

At this time, Takagi Wataru ran in, holding a transparent bag and said, "Inspector, pearls were found in the vacuum cleaner!"

Inspector Megure yelled at him, "Call the forensic officer immediately!"

Poor Takagi Wataru ran out again in a hurry before he could stand firm.

Yuya looked at Tatsuto Funamoto who closed his eyes and gave up struggling: "Mr. Funamoto, it's obviously faster and more convenient to order takeout, but you insisted on letting Miss Xiaomei cook by herself, just to use her to eliminate the evidence on the rubber gloves, right?"

The maid was shocked and looked at Tatsuto Funamoto in disbelief: "Sir, it's not true, it's not true, right?"

Tatsuto Funamoto was silent for a while and said, "Have you heard of a party obsession?"

Yuya frowned slightly: "Is it a kind of obsessive-compulsive disorder?"

Tatsuto Funamoto sighed and nodded: " That’s right, if I hadn’t been staying at home recently due to an injury, I wouldn’t have discovered that the party she was talking about at her friend’s house was actually hosted by her herself…

She even owed a huge amount of debt for hosting the party. What’s even more unacceptable to me is that she wanted to sell the house and continue to host the party.

When I questioned her, she not only showed no remorse, but also bluntly said that she wanted to divorce me and find a rich sponsor to support her…”

This woman doesn’t care about this family, me as a husband, or her son, Toushi!”
