"In that case, is this case a suicide?" Mouri Kogoro said.
"Um……"
Gao Mu said:
"We are also investigating in this direction, but currently there is no record of a person named 'Abe' being poisoned in Tokyo's crime report records. It is speculated that it may have happened in other areas..."
Listening to the famous detective and the detective from the Metropolitan Police Department making the final summary.
Ye Gengyi also thought about leaving with the disaster source and going straight to the next incident scene.
But unfortunately... there are various indications that this is not suicide.
"Brother Saraichi, I noticed something...I'll tell you later." Hattori Heiji came over and lowered his voice. From the look on his face, he seemed to be guarding against a certain detective boy.
Ye Gengyi: "..."
Based on what I said on the road, this black chicken... no...
His eyes fell on Conan's face, which was holding his chin with one hand and looking intently, clearly thinking about something.
It should be said that these detective boys completely understood but did not take it to heart...
In a case like this, if you have clues, why don't you tell the police directly?
As soon as the idea came to his mind, a certain FBI investigator set a good example.
Andrey Kamel said:
"By the way, I think the person named Abe should be very close to the deceased, because when he was on the phone, the deceased called him 'Little Abe'..."
"Oh? Mr. Kamel, besides this, did you notice anything else?"
Mumu Shisan gave an example: "Like an accent or dialect that is not easy for you to understand?"
"Hey, what you said..."
Andrey Kamel looked at Hattori Heiji with a sudden look: "He speaks in the same way as this young man."
"me?"
Hattori Heiji was startled and quickly realized: "In other words, the deceased's accent was Kansai accent?"
"In that case, then the 'Poison Murder Case of Ko Abe' should also have occurred in the Kansai area." Masumi Sera said.
"I see, Takagi, go investigate immediately." Megure Thirteen waved his hand.
"Yes!" Takagi Wataru took out his mobile phone, walked to the corner and started making calls.
Here, Hattori Heiji didn't know whether he intentionally ignored Ye Gengyi's previous words that he was not prepared to be a referee, and whispered:
"Brother Gengyi, let's go outside and take a look first."
Forget it, let's hear what the other party found first. If we solve the case earlier, we can leave here earlier... Ye Geng nodded.
The two came outside the bathroom.
Hattori Heiji looked around, and after confirming that a certain detective boy had not followed him, he said bluntly:
"Brother Geng Yi, I already know that the deceased was not a suicide but a homicide. And because the FBI blocked the exit in time, the murderer must still be in this restaurant."
"Oh. Who is it?" Ye Gengyi asked.
"Well……"
Hattori Heiji's expression froze, "Well, I...I don't know yet..."
Brother Emotion Geng thought he had found out the real murderer, but... solving the case is not about step by step, one step at a time, one clue at a time...
Ye Gengyi: "..."
(_)……
"Hey...Brother Gengyi, don't look at me like that!"
Hattori Heiji said with shame: "Besides, shouldn't you ask me how I know this at this time?"
"...I'm not interested, just don't tell me."
Ye Geng turned around and went to the counter to buy a cup of coffee.
Sometimes he really couldn't understand why these detectives thought he would be interested in a case that had nothing to do with him.
"Wait a minute, brother Gengyi! I said! I said it's not okay yet..."
Hattori Heiji stopped him with one step and spoke as fast as he could:
"In the words spoken by the deceased in Kansai dialect, 'self' actually means the other person, which is 'you'. Therefore, the deceased is not confessing his crime, but persuading someone to surrender, but the result is that He was killed! As for 'Little Abe' referring to 'little candy', the murderer who stuffed the poisoned candy into the man's mouth must have been in the bathroom at the time!"
"Hmm. Then?" Ye Geng stood still and stared at the other person.
"Well……"
After Hattori Heiji pondered for a moment, he analyzed:
"The murderer and the victim must have made an appointment to meet in this restaurant. Because they originally planned to kill each other, they never ate at the same table from the beginning. I think they must have called or sent emails one after another. After going to the bathroom, all he had to do was kill and silence him without speaking at all. The murderer only had to soak the deceased's cell phone in water after committing the crime to destroy the evidence... This also proves why the FBI only heard about the deceased. the sound of."
"Um...then?" Ye Gengyi repeated it without any change in tone.
"ah?"
Hattori Heiji blinked and said hesitantly: "Uh...for now, that's all..."
"Okay. I'm going to buy coffee. What do you want to drink?" Ye Gengyi changed the subject.
"Me? I'm not thirsty yet..."
Hattori Heiji's mind was still a little confused.
He wants to drink a drink now!
By the way, I was the first to discover the clue after all! Brother Gengyi, can you give me some other reaction?
Could it be that...Brother Gengyi already knew this?
He looked suspiciously at someone's face that rarely showed emotion.
...observation failed.
"Well, then I'll go buy it."
Ye Gengyi turned around and walked towards the counter.
He knew what Hattori Heiji was struggling with, but... after hearing it, could he still let himself repeat the long series of analysis to Megure Thirteen intact?
There is no need. Since this Osaka black chicken has further confirmed the possibility of murder, he also has his own method to find out the murderer.
After ordering and paying, Ye Gengyi came to a police officer who was guarding the entrance and exit with a cup of normal coffee and asked:
"Where's the forensic officer?"
"The photos should be printed in the equipment truck outside." the police officer said.
Although it is a suicide, after all, a person died, and the Metropolitan Police also needs to take photos and archive them after dispatching the police.
Ye Geng said softly and walked out.
In front of the bathroom.
Hattori Heiji's depression that he experienced from Ye Geng was all restrained after seeing a certain big head. Instead, he put on a confident expression. He half-crouched down and inquired in a low voice:
"I said, Kudo, how far have you solved this case?"
"Huh? What are you doing here..."
Conan was interrupted from his thoughts, and his subconscious rhetorical questions stopped after hearing the question, and he put on a helpless expression and said:
"For now, it's possible that it's suicide or homicide, so I don't have a clue yet, but as long as we find out that a person named 'Abe' was actually poisoned in Kansai, we'll probably find out something." It’s making progress.”
