In the kitchen, Qin Zhibo finished explaining his reasoning and was about to turn around and leave when he heard the sound of someone lying down behind him.
Looking back, he saw that Yue Yexue had closed his eyes and his body was lying on the cold floor tiles.
Qin Zhibo frowned and walked closer.
Yue Yexue's forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat, his face was pale, and his lips and palms were trembling slightly.
This state obviously goes beyond the guilty conscience after the crime is discovered.
Qin Zhibo reached out and touched Yue Yexue's wrist, seemingly checking his pulse, but actually checking his physical condition.
【Survey√】
Name: Yue Yexue
...
Constitution: 35
...
This physique is already lower than that of normal people and is still declining.
Qin Zhibo glanced at the water glass on the cupboard and remembered that she seemed to have eaten something before he entered the kitchen.
Eliminate cyanide first.
And it can't be any other poison.
Because if it is poison, the police should be able to detect it during a body search.
Thinking of this, Qin Zhibo immediately ran to the kitchen door and pushed open the door.
...
At the door of the kitchen, Toru Amuro and Conan were wondering why there was suddenly no movement inside, and put their ears as close to the wooden door as possible.
When he heard the sound of running inside, it was already too late to escape, and Qin Zhibo caught him.
"What are you doing?"
Looking at the two people standing sideways, one tall and one short, at the door, Qin Zhibo showed doubts in his eyes.
Amuro thought quickly and hurriedly said: "This child said he was hungry, so I took him to the kitchen to find something to eat..."
[Recommended, @
The situation becomes clear. "
Although the clues are still there, Mu Mu is still a little frustrated.
"Then I'll temporarily close the team?"
"Well, don't worry, the murderer will definitely not be able to escape..."
Qin Zhibo and Officer Memu said as they walked out of the kitchen, leaving Toru Amuro standing there.
After experiencing what just happened, Toru Amuro felt mixed emotions.
The cadres of the black organization are all ruthless and have a complete disregard for human life.
Even when they are not performing tasks, people in the organization do not have any compassion or ethics.
Imagine Gin helping an old lady cross the street?
No science fiction film would dare to do this.
But just now Qin Zhibo was indeed trying his best to rescue the person in the most rational way, and the other person was still a criminal.
It is clear that the criminal committed suicide out of fear of crime, but he still helped to hide it for the sake of the "friend" he said.
What is this...
Some thoughts came to Toru Amuro's mind, some rethinking about Qin Zhibo's character card.
...
Under Qin Zhibo's guidance, Officer Memu decided to temporarily close the team and wait for Kaoru Kusano to wake up and identify the murderer.
Seeing that his other "personality" was not given a chance to express itself, and worried about the recurrence of Maori Lan's cold, Mouri Kogoro proposed to go home and rest first.
In the lobby on the first floor of the apartment building, just as Mao Lilan was about to go out, a voice from behind stopped Mao Lilan.
"Please wait a moment."
Mao Lilan looked back and found that it was Hoshino Terumi.
"Ms. Hoshino, what's the matter?"
Hoshino Terumi didn't beat around the bush and asked directly: "Do you know Kudo Shinichi?"
Conan was startled when he heard his name from the female star, and immediately thought about whether he had any leverage on her.
Mao Lilan on the opposite side was also startled for a moment, a little surprised, but still nodded calmly.
"We know each other. Shinichi has been my classmate since childhood..."
Shinichi...
Aren’t our classmates from childhood to adulthood childhood sweethearts?
Hearing this title and identity, Hoshino Terumi couldn't help but feel jealous.
"Ahem...actually what I want to ask is, during the incident a month ago, were you and Kudo Shinichi at the scene together?"
A month ago... seems a bit far away.
But Mao Lilan still nodded, "Yes, Shinichi and I happened to be there at the time. What happened? Miss Hoshino?"
"Is such that......"
Hoshino Terumi asked the doubt in her heart, that is, who was the person who solved the problem?
Mao Lilan tapped her chin with her fingertips, thought for a moment, and replied: "I remember, it should be Mr. Qin..."
Regarding Shu Yugu, Mao Lilan couldn't remember the techniques clearly. Anyway, she was not very sensitive to those killing techniques.
But on the way home that night, she still remembered Shinichi saying to himself——
The key evidence was found by Qin Zhibo, but for some reason, Qin Zhibo gave himself the opportunity to reason. ….
Combined with the fact that Qin Zhibo's dress that day did not look like he was attending a banquet, Kudo Shinichi suspected that Qin Zhibo, as a private detective, had some other purpose in Souha's house.
But before Kudo Shinichi could solve the mystery, he disappeared after the weekend date...
Conan on the side was also a little confused, why did Hoshino Terumi suddenly mention that incident that felt like it had been a long time ago.
Hoshino Terumi, on the other hand, looked surprised and murmured, "What he said is actually true..."
"What's true?" Mao Lilan asked.
"It's nothing, don't worry about it." Hoshino Terumi smiled slightly and changed the subject: "By the way, has Kudo Shinichi contacted you recently?"
"Especially after he disappeared from public view..."
Mao Lilan was stunned for a moment, thinking about what "disappearing from public view" means.
When Conan next to him heard this, his brain immediately reacted and realized that this was a sensitive topic.
Except for a few of the most trusted people, the fact that he is still alive cannot be disclosed to anyone else.
If those black guys find out, everything will be over!
"Ouch! Sister Xiaolan! I'm hungry!"
"I want to go home right away!"
"Well~~~I want to go home! Go home!"
Conan quickly acted coquettishly and forcefully grabbed Mao Lilan's hand, and then dragged Mao Lilan out of the apartment building and away from Hoshino Terumi.
...
When they arrived at the parking lot, Conan looked back cautiously.
I was relieved when I found that Hoshino Terumi didn't follow.
call--
Almost revealed.
Mao Lilan on the side also turned to look in the direction of the apartment building and murmured: "It always feels like Miss Hoshino is very concerned about Shinichi's affairs..."
"Could it be that you like Shinichi?"
Hearing this, Conan was so shocked that he almost burst out. He quickly laughed and said: "How is this possible? Sister Hoshino is a big star, and brother Shinichi...these two are incomparable~"
At this moment, Mouri Kogoro, who was sitting in the car, made an angry voice.
"hateful!"
"This old car can't start again! I'm so angry!"
Mouri Kogoro had long known that the cheap car he rented was prone to this problem, so he went downstairs to start the car in advance, but he still didn't avoid it.
After waiting for a while, Qin Zhibo, who had finished discussing the matter with Officer Mu, went downstairs.
Seeing Maoli's family stranded in the parking lot, Qin Zhibo happened to propose that he could take them back.
Maori Kogoro thought about it and felt that there was no need to waste time, so he asked Mao Lilan and Conan to follow Qin Zhibo back first. He wanted to stay here to figure out a solution to the car problem.
Since they were all old acquaintances, Mao Lilan and Conan did not refuse and got into Qin Zhibo's red Mustang convertible.
...
Arriving downstairs at the Maori Detective Agency, Qin Zhibo took out the "gift" prepared for Mao Lilan from the trunk.
"This gift is to celebrate your successful discharge from hospital..."
"It doesn't look very beautiful, but I bought it in a souvenir shop in the United States. It is said to be hundreds of years old..."
Conan frowned and said: Hundreds of years of history? are you sure?
Mao Lilan immediately said that the gift was too expensive. She just recovered from a cold and could not afford such an expensive gift. ….
But at Qin Zhibo's insistence, Mao Lilan accepted the gift.
This is a silver metal disc, but it is not as delicate as ordinary silverware. It is pitted and very mottled.
In the middle of the disk is a twisted five-pointed star pattern, and the etching marks look very old.
Conan next to him jumped up and saw the lines on the disk.
Eh?
Isn't this the picture on the badge in Qin Zhibo's wallet?
Conan's memory is still very good, and he recognized the old seal at a glance.
"This thing has the effect of exorcising evil spirits and calming the house. It is very common in the United States..."
"I suggest Xiaolan that you put this thing on your bedside when you get home, maybe it will work wonders."
Mao Lilan smiled and said she would give it a try.
As for whether Mao Lilan would do this, Qin Zhibo didn't know, but at least the things were given away.
...
22:00, Maori Detective Agency, third floor.
"Good night, Sister Xiaolan."
"Good night, Conan."
We said goodbye to each other late in the living room
Ann, Mao Lilan and Conan, who were wearing pajamas, went back to their rooms to sleep.
It's not that Mao Lilan resists sleeping in the same room with Conan, but Mao Lilan's existence is very bad for Conan's physical and mental health.
So Conan is very self-aware and has been laying the floor in Kogoro Mori's room.
In the simple and tidy room, the warm pink bed has been laid.
But now seeing the familiar bed, Mao Lilan felt a trace of resistance in her heart.
She didn't want to sleep.
In other words, she didn't want to dream anymore.
During the two days in the hospital, a strange dream circulated in her mind every night.
It was said to be a strange dream, but it was actually the experience in New York that had to be repeated, repeated, and repeated again and again.
In the Ghost Theater, the "Yellow King" played by Keith, the lead actor, appears in every dream.
And every time I see it, the feeling that it is not something that has passed away becomes stronger in my heart.
There are also other people in the dream who will suddenly turn their heads, use strange expressions, and say some incomprehensible words to themselves.
"My stars..."
"Follow her, Dark Star, Kakosa..."
"Under the yellow robe, our king!"
Although it is a dream that is so familiar that it can no longer be familiar, there will be some new changes every time.
And these changes are gradually evolving in a terrifying direction...
Mao Lilan sat on the bed and stared blankly at the disk on the desk.
After thinking about it, Mao Lilan carefully put the disc into the cabinet.
...
The next day, Zhibo Detective Agency.
Follow your daily habits, wash up, watch the morning news, and have breakfast.
On the morning news, Reina Mizuno spoke seriously about the attempted murder of female idol Kaoru Kusano.
"Currently, Kaoru Kusano is out of danger. The police will hopefully get information about the prisoner's appearance from his mouth..."
In addition to the murder of the idol, Rena Minami reported three other murders, as well as a suicide, two accidental deaths, and an unidentified male floating body on the Tsutsumi River.
It is hard to imagine that this is what happened across Tokyo in just one day yesterday.
In Qin Zhibo's view, not only Mihua, but also the whole of Tokyo is a bit collapsed.
The crime rate remains high, and one death after another has become a daily routine, as if human nature is being subtly distorted.
Take the murder of an idol yesterday, Qin Zhibo was a little confused.
Yue Yexue prepared hypoglycemic medicine in advance, indicating that she was planning to commit suicide.
But since he knew that he might regret killing someone, why did he kill him anyway?
Isn't this contradictory?
Could it be that the jealousy caused by the crush being robbed was so strong?
In Qin Zhibo's opinion, Yue Yexue's character is somewhat twisted, and the possibility of schizophrenia cannot be ruled out.
Only having two personalities can explain why she did such contradictory things.
While Qin Zhibo was thinking, Shui Wu Lina on the TV screen switched to a lighter topic.
"This weekend, the next-generation fully stealth virtual game console "Cocoon" will be launched in Japan and hold its first press conference...".
