On the booth, Gao Yuan couldn't help but frown slightly as he looked at the lifeless Yamahara Qiu Xi and the ferocious expression she left on her face.
Then he looked at the other spectators who also drank champagne and were at a loss on the stage, and found that they had no signs of poisoning. Could it be that only Yamahara Akira's wine glass was poisonous?
Thinking this way, Gao Yuan looked at Dashan aside. At this moment, the young man also looked panicked, holding an empty tray in his hand and looking at the people on the stage with innocent eyes, as if praying for protection.
However, at that time, Yamahara Qiuyu took a cup from the tray and drank it. How did she choose the poisonous cup?
However, one thing is certain, the murderer should be one of these people on the booth now!
Then after thinking about it, his eyes turned to Ms. Ashiki Ako who had just walked out of the backstage - no, to be precise, this person should also be included.
However, although there was a period of time between Yamahara Qiuxi's drinking and the onset of poisoning, she died of poisoning in such a short period of time. What kind of poison was used?
Confused, Gao Yuan reached over to the broken glass and gently sniffed the drinks scattered on the stand. After carefully distinguishing them for a while, he smelled a faint smell similar to bitter almonds - unexpectedly
It's cyanide!
However, if it is cyanide, isn't the poisonous release rate a bit slow?
But since the wine spilled from Yamahara Qiuxi's wine glass smelled of bitter almonds, it obviously meant that her wine glass was poisoned. And now the other audience members who drank champagne were not poisoned. It seemed that
The wine they drank was not poisoned.
Regardless of the speed of the poison's onset, how did the murderer let Yamahara Qiuxi get this glass of poisonous champagne?
"How's it going? What did you find?"
Yukiko saw that the situation at the scene had been maintained, so she walked to Takato and asked.
"Cyanide."
Gao Yuan said, "But, why is it only in this glass of wine?"
After listening to Gao Yuan's words, Yukiko roughly understood what was going on. She looked under the booth, then came to the front of the stage, discussed with several reporters holding cameras, and borrowed a few to take pictures.
The camera of that scene.
Gao Yuan took the camera borrowed by Yukiko, operated the buttons on it, and immediately played the scene he wanted to see.
Dashan came to the booth carrying several glasses of champagne. Yamahara Akira took one of the glasses - the one slightly to the right of the middle. The action only lasted a second or two, without appearing to choose carefully.
I watched the shots from several other angles in succession, and they all looked like this.
"Not even a glance."
Gao Yuan frowned.
“There is no careful choice at all.”
Yukiko also said solemnly, "Do you have any ideas?"
"I can only think of two possibilities at the moment."
Gao Yuan thought for a moment and said, "Someone randomly poisoned the champagne and killed people randomly, and Yamahara Qiuxi unfortunately chose that cup. Or the murderer used some method to make sure that Yamahara would choose that cup."
Soon, Officer Megure arrived with police officers and took over the scene.
"Oh! Isn't this Ms. Yukiko? And brother Akechi. Why are you here?"
Seeing Takato and Yukiko at the scene, Officer Megure asked in surprise.
"Ah, Officer Megure, long time no see!"
Smiling, Yukiko said hello to Officer Megure.
"Since Ms. Kiko is here, what about Yusaku?"
Officer Megure said, looking around.
"Actually, it's like this. Youzuo didn't come this time because of something else, so I invited Xiao Gaoyuan to come and participate in this commission with me."
Yukiko explained.
"Commission? Can you explain it in detail?"
After Officer Megure finished speaking, Yukiko and Takato explained everything about today to Officer Megure.
After listening to the two men's accounts, Officer Memu asked the police officers to call Dashan over and ask him about the threatening letter.
Oyama's full name is Oyama Kei, because the scene of Yamahara Akihiro's own death just now was so shocking that he faced the police inquiry without reservation and admitted the fact that he had sent a threatening letter to Yamahara Akihiro.
"Then did you poison the champagne?"
Officer Megure asked seriously.
"No!"
Somewhat panicked, Oyama Kei retorted fiercely, "I just followed Mr. Hori Ryosuke's arrangement and brought the champagne to the stage!"
"Then why did you send the threatening letter?"
Officer Megure asked sternly.
"Because that woman has an immoral private life! She is not worthy of endorsing 'Fusa Painting'!"
Faced with this question, Oyama Kei shouted loudly, which shocked several people present.
"Why do you say that? I haven't found any relevant reports?"
Gao Yuan was a little confused about this.
"Because I have seen it! In the company, although I didn't see who the man was! But it must be right!"
Oyama Kei said affirmatively.
At this time, the forensic doctor had already done the most basic tests and informed Officer Megure of the results.
After hearing this, Officer Megure asked the police officers to take Oyama Kei down first, and then looked at Takato and Yukiko.
"Just now the forensic doctor conducted the most basic examination on the deceased and confirmed that the deceased died of cyanide poisoning. The technical department also examined the wine scattered in the deceased's wine glass at the scene, and indeed detected the content of cyanide, while the remaining wine glasses
No cyanide was detected in the alcohol. It is believed that the deceased died due to drinking poisonous alcohol."
"So, the problem really lies in the criminal methods."
Gao Yuan said after hearing this result.
Under that situation, no one at the scene could influence Ms. Yamahara Akihiro's choice and let her choose poisoned wine. So who and what method was used to complete the poisoning?
"There is a technique called 'forced choice'."
Yukiko said at this time, "It feels like it is my own choice, but in fact it is induced by others. This is often used in magic."
"But in that case, who can provide psychological guidance to Miss Yamahara?"
Gao Yuan shook his head and disagreed with this statement.
"Perhaps there are some features on the cup that make Yamahara want to take that cup."
Yukiko thought about it and came up with another possibility, but Gao Yuan also rejected it.
"In the footage taken by the reporter, we did not see any marks on the cup."
At this moment, many of the onlookers in the audience had left, but Masami Hirota and the girl with short brown hair were still at the scene.
Hirota Masami looked at the police at the scene and said with some worry: "Shiho, why don't we go back first."
"It's okay."
The girl held the side of her face with her right hand and rested her elbow on her thigh, with an indifferent expression on her face, "Just wait until the new 'Fusha Paint' products go on sale later."
"That's it."
Faced with the girl's answer, Hirota Masami couldn't say anything, "But it's rare that we go out to play together, and we encounter this kind of thing."
Hirota Masami said, looking at Takato and Yukiko on the booth.
"Speaking of which, those two people were in control of the situation from the beginning. Are they also police officers?"
The girl said nothing. She looked at the two people talking to the police officer on the booth and the man in a blue trench coat who was thinking. She sighed and thought to herself:
Are you really struggling with the issue of choosing a cup? But in my opinion, the time when the poison is released is more important to people!
