After greeting Xiaolan and Sonoko, Narumi Kiyotaka pulled Conan aside and asked privately: "Why did you come here all of a sudden?"
Conan glanced at a strong man not far away and said with an angry look on his face: "Recently, that guy is pursuing Xiaolan. Yesterday, I happened to see him inviting Xiaolan to attend the Valentine's Day party, and Xiaolan actually agreed and did the same thing.
I’ve got chocolate, do you think I can’t come?”
Narumi Kiyotaka's eyes were filled with sympathy. It turned out that someone was trying to take advantage of this kid. No wonder he was so excited!
"So you kill people as soon as you come!"
"Bah, bah, bah, what do the dead people here have to do with me!"
After the joke was over, Narumi Kiyotaka began to ask about the business, "You have been at the scene, do you have any clues?"
Conan informed him of the clues he knew one by one. A party was being held here today, hosted by the deceased Minagawa Katsuhiko. In addition to Xiaolan and Sonoko, there were four other participants.
Toshihide Wakamatsu is the strong man who wants to pursue Xiaoran, and is a friend of Minagawa Katsuhiko.
Okawa Naomichi is a bespectacled otaku, and he is also Minagawa Katsuhiko's friend on the surface. However, according to Conan's observation, Minagawa Katsuhiko has a very bad attitude towards him. The relationship between the two should not be good, and there may be some conflict.
Sekiya Kaoru is Minagawa Katsuhiko's childhood sweetheart. She likes Minagawa Katsuhiko and wanted to give him chocolate just now, but was rejected.
Watanabe was so beautiful, a girl with long hair, and she also liked Minagawa Katsuhiko, so she also gave him chocolate, but Minagawa Katsuhiko died not long after eating it.
In addition to these people, there is also a middle-aged woman in a kimono in the villa, who seems to be Minagawa Katsuhiko's mother. She helped prepare all the food. Finally, there is a child, Minagawa Katsuhiko's younger brother, who is about the same age as Conan
, having tooth decay.
Based on the information provided by Conan, Narumi Kiyotaka quickly remembered the murder method in this case, and asked Conan a few more questions to confirm.
On the other side, the police also began to make routine inquiries. Officer Megure asked a young woman: "Miss Watanabe, Mr. Minagawa Katsuhiko fell down immediately after eating the chocolate you gave him."
Watanabe said sadly: "Yes."
Officer Megure said: "It seems that you are the most suspect. You poisoned the chocolate and killed Mr. Minagawa Katsuhiko. As long as we investigate whether the chocolate is poisonous, we can prove that you are the murderer."
"It's not me, it's really not me..." Watanabe Haomi suddenly panicked and couldn't help crying.
Sato Miwako raised a question: "She was the last person to come into contact with the deceased. She was still standing next to the deceased when he was poisoned. If she was the murderer, it would be too conspicuous to poison him to death like this."
Officer Megure was stunned for a moment, as he seemed to be a bit conspicuous. Miwako Sato continued: "And in addition to chocolates, unfinished cigarettes were also found at the scene."
"By the way, there are cigarettes!" Officer Megure immediately asked someone to take out an evidence bag containing cigarette butts. "Who knows where this cigarette came from?"
Suzuki Sonoko said: "I know that when Mr. Katsuhiko was about to go out to smoke, he accidentally found that he had finished smoking. It was Mr. Naomichi who took the initiative to hand him his cigarette."
After hearing this, everyone turned their suspicious eyes on a man wearing glasses, and saw that the other man looked very embarrassed.
Officer Memu said: "Mr. Naomichi, I heard that there was some conflict between you and the deceased. Why did you still hand him cigarettes? Could it be that you poisoned the cigarettes?"
Probably seeing that the matter had been exposed, the man with glasses no longer hid it, and there seemed to be some joy on his face, "Yes, I did it. I started to hate him a long time ago. Katsuhiko always looks down on me. The most disgusting thing is,
He actually hurt Axiang again and again. So I poisoned the filter of the cigarette..."
Hearing the glasses man's admission, everyone suddenly felt that the truth was revealed. Sato Miwako vaguely felt that something was wrong. Officer Megure was about to take the glasses man away when Narumi Kiyotaka's voice suddenly came from beside him, "Wait a minute!"
Officer Megure smiled and said: "The murderer has already confessed, does Narumi brother have anything else to say? Although it is a pity, there is no chance for you to appear again today!"
Narumi Kiyotaka said: "Although Mr. Naomichi admitted it, it only means that he also wanted to kill the deceased, but it does not mean that the deceased was killed by him!"
Officer Megu was suddenly confused, as if he didn't understand the difference.
Narumi Kiyotaka pointed to the evidence bag containing the cigarette butts, "Mr. Naomichi said he poisoned the filter of the cigarette, but the body and filter of the cigarette at the scene were separated. There were some in the living room that the deceased had smoked before.
Cigarette boxes, this brand of cigarettes do not have filters at all, indicating that the deceased usually smoked cigarettes without filters. Even when Mr. Naomi handed him cigarettes, the deceased was used to taking off the filters before smoking, and did not smoke at all.
To the toxic part.”
Officer Memu suddenly felt a little embarrassed. It was rare for the police to find out the truth on their own and the prisoner admitted it, but the result was suddenly overturned.
Sato Miwako took over the conversation, "It seems that the murderer is indeed someone else. In addition to chocolate and cigarettes, did the deceased eat other things?"
Narumi Kiyotaka said: "A party was held here before, and a lot of food was prepared. Naturally, the deceased also ate some."
Minagawa Katsuhiko's mother couldn't help but said: "You suspect there is something wrong with the food I made? But everyone ate the food."
Narumi Kiyotaka shook his head, "The others may have eaten it, but the deceased probably only ate part of it. I asked Conan, and at least the deceased didn't eat the cake."
Ms. Minagawa's face changed slightly, and she immediately explained: "Katsuhiko doesn't like sweet things, so he didn't eat them."
Narumi Kiyotaka smiled and said: "That's right, just because he doesn't like sweet things, he didn't eat the cake, so he didn't take the antidote."
What antidote? Officer Megure was still confused, but Sato Miwako said clearly, "I see, as long as everyone else eats food with the antidote in advance, even if they eat food with poison together later,
It doesn't matter."
Ms. Minagawa's face suddenly changed. "These are just your guesses. What evidence do you have?"
Narumi Kiyotaka said: "I noticed just now that when others were asking questions, you had been washing cups in the kitchen. I heard that you drank coffee before. If my guess is correct, you should have put poison in the coffee.
, so I was busy cleaning the cup. However, no matter how much you wash it, with today's science and technology, it is still possible to detect it. In addition, there should be poison residue that you rinsed out at the drain outlet.
By the way, is there something hidden in your clothes? It looks like it’s almost melted! Let me guess, is that chocolate? Could it be the chocolate that Ms. Watanabe Komi gave to Mr. Minagawa Katsuhiko earlier? When the police arrived
Before, you wrapped it in a piece of poisonous chocolate."
Ms. Minagawa quickly covered a stain on the clothes on her chest, "That's nonsense. How do I know he wants to eat Miss Haomei's chocolate? And why should I kill my own child?"
Sekiya Xiang on the side couldn't help but said: "No, Katsuhiko's biological parents passed away in a car accident seven years ago. It is precisely because of this that he was adopted by you as your aunt. And as far as I know, the reason why Katsuhiko is
He likes Haomei because Haomei looks very similar to his mother. You know Katsuhiko’s mother and must have discovered this, so you already knew that he would definitely eat the chocolates given by Haomei.”
After being completely exposed, Ms. Minagawa finally couldn't hide it any more. She hugged her little son and cried bitterly, "I'm sorry, beautiful lady! I accidentally saw you buying chocolates on the street, and that's when I came up with this idea. I was really desperate.
, my husband’s career failed. Only by getting the inheritance owned by Katsuhiko can we save this family..."
Narumi Kiyotaka shook his head, killing is killing. But having said that, the deceased was really a failure in life. Two people wanted to kill him. He could escape in the first year but not in the fifteenth! This chapter has been completed!
