Rebirth of Conan as a Detective

Wakamatsu's house.

"So, who cut the baumkuchen?" Megure asked.

"Yes, it's me," the lovely young maid replied anxiously, "It's just that Ms. Satake helped me put the cake on the plate, and she also said to cut the cake into 8 equal parts..."

"8 equal parts?"

"5 guests, wife, Mr. Ikuro, and director Shiina who likes desserts the most, a total of 8 people."

Ms. Satake is Yoshimi Satake who works as the secretary of the president. She has short and mid-length hair, wears clerk glasses, and a business attire. She looks like a capable professional elite.

Facing the police's questioning, Satake explained: "The Baumkuchen was bought by the director, and if there are more portions, it will be cut too small."

What Satake was talking about was a middle-aged man with a big nose and a square face, with squinted eyes and thick eyebrows, very imposing. Tonight, he and Wakamatsu's chief designer Fujinami Junsheng came to visit the murdered president's house.

"The deceased president and I both liked the Baumkuchen of that store, so we would buy it every time we come," Director Shiina explained, "When I came here with Fujinami today, I stopped by that store... ..."

Hattori and Conan stared at the group of people at the scene, frowning.

Obviously the prisoner killed someone right under his nose, but he couldn't catch his feet...

Almost everyone has the opportunity to poison, the important thing is how to let Mr. Ikuro, the son of the president who was killed, get the poisoned piece.

In the end, there were only two pieces left, and Mr. Yulang specially picked a piece that was farther away. There was no way to determine it in advance.

What I know now is that Wakamatsu's house just ran out of soy sauce, and the maid went out to buy it and failed to cook in time, making Mr. Ikuro very hungry. I know that this stupid young master with a strong appetite is hungry, only his wife, secretary Satake and the maid.

In addition, everyone in the family knows that the stupid young master likes to eat cakes with his hands...

Could it be that it wasn't the cake that was poisoned?

Hattori rubbed his chin in thought.

Indeed, the temporarily dissolved capsules may have been used only to confuse the investigation...

"So?" Conan suddenly asked, "What does Kido say?"

"It is said that the tiles on the scene used a weird oblique effect,

In fact, the color of each tile is the same, so the prisoner should have swapped the tiles, and after the forensic personnel check, they should be able to know the news of the president's death, the problem is..."

Hattori frowned and didn't quite understand: "That guy from Kido said that the case may not be over. What does he mean? That guy is obviously not here."

"I want to say that the murderer has some conspiracy."

Conan is still thinking about this case. If the tiles were really just exchanged, it should be no problem to find the death message, and then he will know who the murderer is.

However, the method used by the prisoner to poison is still a problem, and it is still uncertain whether the prisoner in the two incidents is the same.

"The cup of black tea with capsules deposited after the poison reaction, and the content is very small, it should be thrown into the black tea after the poison was used up to eliminate the evidence..."

"But if it is said that only the cake eaten by Mr. Yulang is poisonous, how can the criminal let Mr. Yulang choose that piece, there is only a 1/2 probability..."

"There is another possibility," Conan raised his head and said, "The capsule in the black tea is just a cover, and Mr. Ikuro got the poison in his hands before."

Hattori twisted his hat, with bright eyes eager for the truth: "I think so too, let's investigate again!"

In any case, they are definitely more beneficial than Gao Cheng at the scene of the case, and this opportunity cannot be wasted...

President Wakamatsu’s study room has been the place where the temporary president’s wife has been working since the president’s death. During the police investigation, the wife was always waiting in the study room with everyone. Even if other people went out to cooperate with the investigation, the wife still stayed in the room. busy with his work.

As the vice president of the company, Madam didn't seem to be very sad about the murder of her stepson, the idiot young master.

"As of the end of this month, the design commissions are already full, and this kind of thing happened to Ikuro..."

Mrs. Wakamatsu flipped through the documents on one side of the table, and said to the female secretary: "It's not an option to wait, Ms. Satake, can you show me the text design sent to this computer?"

"Ah, okay!" Secretary Satake hurriedly helped to operate the office computer.

"Isn't that all right?" Director Shiina and the others went to the computer to check the design document.

"The client's request has also been met."

On the computer, the words "Ruoren's Wine" were arranged from large to small fonts. Mrs. Ruo Matsu's eyes were a little sore when she saw it, and she rubbed the corners of her eyes with her hands.

"Vice president, is it okay?" the secretary asked worriedly.

"If it's eye fatigue," designer Fujinami said, taking out a box of eye drops, "do you want to use my eye drops? I just bought it and haven't used it yet."

Mrs. Ruosong gladly took the eye drops: "Then lend me some."

"Madam must be too tired, so many things happened today..."

"yes."

At this time, the police came and asked everyone to gather in the living room at the scene of the crime. Mrs. Wakamatsu asked, "Can I stay here? I want to be alone for a while."

"this……"

"The vice president was very tired, and she was sitting all the time at that time, and she never got close to the Baumkuchen that Mr. Ikuro ate. If you go to the living room to reproduce the scene, you won't need her, right?"

Mu Mu was quite helpless, the on-site investigation was originally conducted voluntarily, and there was indeed no reason to force Mrs. Wakamatsu to cooperate.

...

Karuizawa.

Gao Cheng had seen the scene photos sent by Hattori, one eighth of the ring-shaped Baumkuchen remained in the tray, paused, and asked Uehara Yui for a case report to check carefully.

Indeed, it was the maid who first discovered the president's body. That's right. After calling Mrs. Wakamatsu to the scene, she followed her instructions to call an ambulance and the police.

But the maid didn't seem to have entered the bathroom at all, and the only one who was near the corpse was Mrs. Wakamatsu.

"Go to the study and use the landline phone. Sometimes the mobile phone has no signal here... Ah, by the way, I will tell Yulang that he should still be sleeping in the room... I don't want others to see my husband like this, Qian Don't let other people know..."

According to the maid's testimony, Mrs. Wakamatsu said so at the time.

When the maid returned to the bathroom after making the phone call, I saw Ikuro hugging the president's father and crying. At that time, the blood on the ground disappeared.

In other words, only Mrs. Wakamatsu and the president's son are the only ones who can do something. Mrs. Wakamatsu is the most likely.

At that time, President Wakamatsu had just done the final replacement of the bathroom tiles, and it was very convenient to change the location on the spot. It might not even use tools, and it was difficult for the police to detect the problem.

At that time, several Shiina directors, including Mrs. Wakamatsu, were playing cards in the living room, because the president left everyone to say that he had important things to say later, and after waiting for about two hours, there was a perfect alibi.

The only maid who may have committed the crime was the president's son, but because the president's wallet was missing, the murder weapon was not found, and there were traces of external intrusion, the police continued to investigate based on the clue that outsiders committed the crime. .

It is worth noting that it is not only the bathroom in the hometown in Osaka that needs to be remodeled, but the Karuizawa villa is also planned to be remodeled. It is only because of site protection that the construction has not started for the time being, and this time will not be too long.

Gao Cheng put down the case report.

According to his personal speculation, the murderer who killed the president was probably the young master, and Mrs. Wakamatsu chose to cover it up.

In this case, the first case he came to Conan World to handle was that Mrs. Wakamatsu and the president were not related by blood.

And now, when Hattori and the others came to the door, the president's son was poisoned...

"Kito!" Yamato Kansuke shouted in a deep voice from inside the villa, "The news of the president's death has been found. It is the three English letters 'Son'. The murderer is his son!"

"son?!"

Gao Cheng read the case files again.

In this case, there are two possibilities for the case in Tokyo, one is a vendetta, the other is an accomplice who kills and kills, or both exist at the same time.

Although there are still many details missing, he has roughly seen the truth.

"I know the prisoner's real plan." Gao Chengchao said to Yamato who was still in deep thought.
