Although the wedding almost turned into a funeral, the police response speed was also very fast. After all, it was a wedding in the police force, and the majority of the people were police officers.

Manager Matsumoto took Sayuri Matsumoto from Xia Ye's arms, his face serious and almost ferocious:

"Xia Ye, I leave it to you!"

In fact, according to reason, the heads of the first, second and third departments of the first division are all here, so it is not Xia Ye's turn, a young man who has neither the position nor the resume, to be in charge of the scene.

However,

Manager Matsumoto is very aware of the ability of his subordinates. If today's case is handed over to Megure, it would be funny if he came to the conclusion that it was suicide!

Officer Megure is also very open-minded.

He patted Xia Ye's shoulder with a serious face:

"Xia Ye, handle the case well!"

Manager Matsumoto loves his daughter dearly, so his subordinates naturally dare not disobey his orders. Therefore, Xia Ye has become the highest-ranking commander on the scene.

Xia Ye did not refuse.

No matter what attitude Matsumoto Sayuri has.

As a policeman, it is his duty to find the criminal, especially this kind of criminal who is not very sympathetic. Xia Ye will not let him go just because the victim wants to cover up!

"Miss Matsumoto~"

Xia Ye looked at Sayuri Matsumoto who was carried to the sofa by Manager Matsumoto, and said lightly:

"I'm getting started!"

"......"

Sayuri Matsumoto, whose face was still a little pale, was silent for a moment, and a sad smile appeared at the corner of her mouth:

""Then I'll leave it to you, Xia Ye~"

She still wanted to hide something in her heart, but looking at Xia Ye's calm and clear eyes, she couldn't say anything to disrupt the investigation. After all, Xia Ye had almost told her that she knew everything~ and -

Matsumoto Sayuri looked to the other side.

There, her fiancé Takasugi Toshihiko had a complicated expression, standing there in a daze, as if thinking about something.

With a light sigh,

Matsumoto Sayuri closed her eyes and buried her face in her father's chest. Forget it, she had done her best anyway, so let it be!

"The inspection report is out~"

The forensic examiner of the forensic department quickly brought the inspection report to Xia Ye. Well, they didn't forget to bring a full set of tools to attend the wedding of their boss's daughter. These forensic examiners are indeed more dedicated than the police officers.~

""Sodium hydroxide~"

Xia Ye saw the composition of the"poison" at a glance, high-purity sodium hydroxide!

Sodium hydroxide 173 is a white crystalline powder in a dry state, which will dissolve in water and become a highly corrosive solution.

Anyone who has been to junior high school knows this thing.

So.

After Xia Ye mentioned sodium hydroxide.

Many people's eyes became strange.

Xiaolan and Yuanzi looked at Teacher Xiaobaihe in shock. They finally understood why Xia Ye was a little disgusted with her at the beginning of the day. This was too...

How humble!

"Sodium hydroxide——"

Xiaolan and Sonoko looked at each other silently. The police officers also had some concerns. Only Conan was focused on the case. He frowned solemnly and reminded:

"Compared with other poisons, sodium hydroxide is very corrosive. Most people will notice it as soon as they drink it. Spitting it out at this time will only hurt the mouth. However, Sayuri-sensei's injuries are not serious.——

"hiss——!"

Even some people who didn't know much about sodium hydroxide understood the implication, and there was an incredible gasp at the scene!

"That is to say——"

Inspector Megure was always making fun of the joke, so he continued:

"Sayuri voluntarily drank the lemon tea even though she knew it was poisoned. Does this mean that she committed suicide?"

It was because Officer Megure was an old subordinate of Officer Matsumoto that he was so stubborn and only got a stern glance from Officer Matsumoto. If another officer said this, he would have been reprimanded!

"No!"

Xia Ye picked up the inspection report and said calmly:

"If it was suicide, Miss Matsumoto needed one thing, that is, a container and desiccant to keep the sodium hydroxide dry, but the container was not found in this locker room, and Miss Matsumoto could not leave here, so suicide is a wrong conclusion.~"

"Officer Akiyama,"

Xia Ye had just finished speaking when the forensic investigators from the forensic department walked in from outside and began to report:

"We found this bottle in the trash!"

"There is also desiccant in it~"

"But the fingerprints on the bottle were wiped off!"

"Hmm~"

Xia Ye waved her hand, signaling him to put it away.

Then she looked around and said:

"In fact, the scope of the suspects is easy to determine."

"From the video footage shot by Xiaolan and Yuanzi, we can see that the people who touched the bottle of lemon tea from beginning to end included Miss Matsumoto's friend Kazumi, her student Umemiya, her fiancé Takasugi Toshihiko, and Matsumoto's manager.~"

"That is to say——"

"The suspect is among these people!"

"Summer leaves......"

Xiaolan quickly pulled Xia Ye's sleeve and reminded:

"Why did you include Manager Matsumoto?"

"Normal~"

Xia Ye smiled slightly:

"This is the formal process of handling the case.——

"Moreover, judging from the current situation, our Manager Matsumoto is a big suspect.~"

"......"

Everyone was worried for him.

It was obvious that Manager Matsumoto was in a bad mood, but he still dared to say that. How brave!

As for the person involved,

Manager Matsumoto, he didn't react at all. His fierce face remained expressionless.

But Sayuri Matsumoto, who was leaning on his arms, had already understood what Xia Ye meant. She was originally in a complicated mood, but after hearing Xia Ye's words, she felt like laughing, and even her melancholy mood was relieved a lot.~

"actually——"

Conan still restrained himself, and after looking at Xia Ye for instructions, he said seriously:

"The capsule......"

"The capsule has been detected!"

Before Conan finished speaking, the forensic personnel submitted the report in time, but because they needed instruments, they were a little slow:

"In water at the same temperature as lemon tea, it takes fifteen minutes for the surface of this capsule to melt, revealing the medicine inside!"

"Fifteen minutes?"

After hearing this result, the groom Takasugi Toshihiko, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke up:

"The suspect couldn't be me. It was less than fifteen minutes from the time I entered the locker room to the time I left!"

"......"

What Takasugi Toshihiko didn't expect was that his perfect deduction didn't get rid of suspicion, but instead attracted many strange looks.

This guy was too eager.

To be honest, many people didn't suspect him at all. After all, killing the bride at a happy wedding banquet was rare in the crime city of Beika Town.~

"Mr. Takasugi——"

Xia Ye had a playful smile on his face:

"Actually, you don't have to rush to deny it. We haven't finished talking yet. Besides, who said that you have to wait for the capsule to melt before you can poison it? Putting the capsule and the poison together can disrupt the test results. Doesn't the murderer think that he is the only one who understands this?"

"What do you mean?!"

Takasugi Toshihiko's face looked a little ugly.

He didn't notice that on the sofa over there, Sayuri Matsumoto's weak and pale face was completely disappointed. This ugly struggle made some memories with childhood filters collapse and no longer beautiful~

Sayuri Matsumoto smiled bitterly in her heart.

Sure enough, it was just wishful thinking~

On the other side.

Xia Ye glanced at Takasugi Toshihiko and spread his hands:

"In fact, we can narrow the scope of suspects further. Miss Matsumoto knew that the lemon tea had been poisoned, but she still drank it without hesitation. Who among these people could make her do this?"

"hiss——!"(cedc)

Such a straightforward reminder instantly attracted most people's attention to the groom, Takasugi Toshihiko.

Of course, there were a few people who remembered Xia Ye's words and looked at Manager Matsumoto - well, this kind of IQ.

Basically, we can say goodbye to solving cases with our brains.~

"It's you!" (To read the most exciting novels, go to Faloo Novel Network!)

Manager Matsumoto gently placed his daughter on the sofa, and walked quickly to Takasugi Toshihiko with his tall body like a wall, grabbed his collar and lifted him up, his face full of anger:

"Why do you do this to my daughter!?"

"Manager Matsumoto~"

Xia Ye said with a calm smile:

"We haven't found conclusive evidence yet. If you have such a preconceived notion, people will gossip about you and Mr. Takasugi will even sue you for violent law enforcement!"

"No need for that!"

Takasugi Toshihiko suddenly relaxed, a hint of smugness appeared on the corner of his mouth, he stretched out his hand to slap the arm of Manager Matsumoto, and said with resentment in his eyes:

"There is no reason! I just want you to have a taste of losing your loved ones! You murderer!"

Years of accumulated resentment were vented in one day, and Takasugi Toshihiko told a sad story.

Twenty years ago.

Administrator Matsumoto was chasing a fugitive.

The fugitive's car hit Takasugi Toshihiko's mother in a panic, but Administrator Matsumoto did not notice that anyone was injured, and was only concerned with continuing to chase the fugitive, causing Takasugi Toshihiko's mother to die due to delayed medical treatment.

Takasugi Toshihiko was later adopted by the Takasugi Group.

Many years later, he met Sayuri Matsumoto, so he approached her and planned to kill her to let Administrator Matsumoto have a taste of losing his loved ones~

This is what happened in this case.

"Well, there is no real empathy in this world, so I won't judge your act of revenge.——"

Xia Ye said calmly:

"But I want to ask you, did you kill the criminal who hit your mother to death?"

""Huh?"

Everyone was a little dumbfounded.

Even Takasugi Toshihiko, who had confessed his guilt and was not afraid of anything, was stunned for a moment before answering in confusion:

"No——"

"Why not?"

Xia Ye narrowed his eyes slightly and said lightly:

"With the strength of the Takasugi Group, it should be no problem to investigate a person's information.~"

"Twenty years have passed. Even if the criminal was guilty of murder and has served his sentence, why don't you find him and kill him? After all, he is the real enemy who killed your mother, the most direct one!"

"I......"

Takasugi Toshihiko wanted to say something, but he opened his mouth but nothing came out.

Xia Ye was right. As for the cause of his mother's death, the perpetrator was naturally the direct murderer, and the"inaction" of Matsumoto, the manager, was at best a little derelict in his duty. After all, the police in Neon did not write into the law"serving the people, and at all times, the safety of the people must be the first priority", which some people take for granted. It was just dereliction of duty.

Write a self-criticism and get a fine and the bonus will be over.~

"certainly——"

"It's human nature to vent anger on others~"

Xia Ye chuckled and found an excuse for Takasugi Toshihiko:

"As a child, you were shocked and blamed Manager Matsumoto, ignoring the real enemy, which was reasonable."

"After all, the delay in sending your mother to the hospital was indeed the main reason for her death. In this case, even if you want to kill Administrator Matsumoto, I can understand.~"

""Ahem!"

Officer Megure coughed lightly to remind Xia Ye.

Manager Matsumoto is still here.

You really dare to say anything!

"but——"

Xia Ye's expression became serious:

"Every wrong has its perpetrator. Since you hate Officer Matsumoto, why don't you just kill him? Once you succeed, even if you are caught, you can openly say that you are avenging your mother.~"

"And now——"

"But you involved the innocent Miss Matsumoto!"

"I don't care!"

Takasugi Toshihiko blurted out.

On his handsome face there was only a trace of guilt, but mostly deep hatred.

"I don’t really care~"

Xia Ye shrugged slightly, his eyes cold:

"In fact, I don't need to talk to you so much, but without your attitude, I'm afraid some people will be stubborn and stubborn~"

Takasugi Toshihiko subconsciously looked at Matsumoto Sayuri.

But she didn't pay attention to this side, but was talking to Xiaolan and Sonoko who stayed by her side to take care of her.

"Take him away!"

Xia Ye waved her hand and closed the case.

Takasugi Toshihiko did not resist and let the two Metropolitan Police Department officers handcuff him and then walk out of the locker room.

From beginning to end,

Matsumoto Sayuri did not even look over here.

"Xiaolan~"

"Xia Ye is quite gentle~"

At this time, Matsumoto Sayuri was not as sad as imagined, and she was holding Xiaolan's hand.

The person who might be stubborn -

Matsumoto Sayuri's pale face blushed slightly. Isn't she talking about herself!

He was afraid that she still had some nostalgia, so he said so much. This style is quite considerate.~

"yes!"

"but——"

Yuanzi curled her lips and said,"Complain":

"He is only so gentle to girls. As for men, huh, don’t even think about it!"

"Is that so?"

Matsumoto Sayuri blinked and looked at Xia Ye who was walking towards her.
