"I'm fine. I think I can be discharged from the hospital tomorrow. I don't know what question Mr. Mingzhi wants to ask me?"
Fei Yingli responded politely, and then said this, indicating that Gao Yuan did not need to be too polite and could ask casually.
So, after hearing what Fei Yingli said, Gao Yuan nodded and then asked:
"Then, let me get straight to the point - about Lawyer Fei's fact that you like to eat the Swiss brand of chocolate 'ZIGOBA', besides you and Mr. Maori, who else knew about it before the incident?"
Having said this, it seemed that the description was not quite accurate, so Gao Yuan continued:
"I heard Conan mention that when Xiaolan asked you to have dinner with Mr. Maori that day, he mentioned at the dinner table that the concubine's favorite chocolate is 'ZIGOBA' chocolate. Before that, Miss Xiaolan, you know this
What's the matter?"
"No……"
Shaking her head, Xiaolan couldn't help but reply when faced with Gao Yuan's question:
"It was also the first time I learned about it that day."
"So, even Miss Xiaolan doesn't know about this, so how did the gangster know about it?"
After receiving this response from Xiaolan, Gao Yuan continued:
"From this, I thought of a great possibility. That day when you were eating together, the gangster was nearby and heard your conversation! And in the end, the gangster also saw you and Mr. Maoli, the lawyer.
It was a joyous scene, so he could be so sure afterwards that after sending the 'ZIGOBA' chocolate to you, you would think it was from Mr. Mori, and eat the chocolate without warning!"
"I understand what you mean."
In this regard, after hearing what Gao Yuan said, Fei Yingli immediately understood the meaning of Gao Yuan's words, so she said:
"Mr. Akechi believes that the gangster is probably the person who appeared next to us when we were talking about my liking for 'ZIGOBA' chocolate in the restaurant, right?"
Hearing this, Gao Yuan nodded affirmatively——
As far as the plot of the original work is concerned, when Kogoro Mouri and Eiri's family were having dinner in a French restaurant that day, the sommelier Sawaki Noir was standing by to help them open wine.
If it is possible to prove from the testimony here that Sawaki Koichi corresponds to the number "eight", it is possible that he could know the brand of chocolate that Fei Yingri likes to eat, and thus complete the poisoning attack on Fei Yingri.
If he is a human being, then this will completely allow the police to switch from protecting him to investigating him.
In any case, although the current situation has some obvious deviations from the original work, after all, I cannot rule out the suspicion of the prisoner in the original work, so I still feel uneasy about Mr. Fairy Sawaki.
However, the following answers from Fei Yingli and Xiaolan ruled out this possibility——
"But, I remember that time... We were sitting at a dining table in the hall. When we talked about this topic, there were no customers at the other tables, and there were no waiters guarding them. There should be no one else.
People will hear about that 'ZIGOBA' chocolate that Mom likes to eat."
Xiaolan thought about this for a moment and couldn't help but reply.
"Indeed. I also remember very clearly that when we talked about this topic, there was no one around."
Fei Yingli also nodded and answered affirmatively.
"In that case, excluding the fact that the gangster accidentally learned about the brand of chocolate you like to eat, Lawyer Fei, before the incident, there is only one possibility left, and that is, who did you and Mr. Maoli have against before?
I told you that you like to eat 'ZIGOBA' chocolate."
Although Fei Yingli and Xiaolan's answers surprised Gao Yuan, and they directly denied that he wanted to start from now on and let the police investigate Zemu's situation, but at least there was a direction for the investigation, so Gao Yuan asked.
In this regard, after hearing Gao Yuan's inquiry, Fei Yingli thought for a while and couldn't help but replied in the affirmative:
"I have never told anyone that I like to eat, and I have never mentioned it to anyone. Even my secretary, Ms. Kuriyama, did not like this 'ZIGOBA' chocolate before I received it this time.
Not sure I like eating this kind of chocolate..."
"In other words, before this incident happened, Lawyer Fei, you never mentioned to anyone that you like to eat 'ZIGOBA' chocolate?"
Hearing this, Gao Yuan looked a little solemn——
"That will be Mr. Mori's side..."
"I don't think dad will tell this matter, right?"
In response to this, Xiaolan could not help but reply:
"After all, for so many years, I have never heard my father mention that brand of chocolate that my mother likes to eat..."
"In that case, why did the gangster know about this? Could it be that it just happened that the chocolate chosen was the concubine's favorite?"
Faced with such a situation, Gao Yuan felt that the key to the matter must be here, otherwise there would be no reason for the gangster to know about it.
So, after thinking for a while, Gao Yuan suddenly asked:
"By the way, seats in that restaurant must be reserved in advance, right?"
"um, yes."
In response, Xiaolan nodded.
"okay, I get it!"
In this regard, after learning about this incident, Gao Yuan thought thoughtfully, and then came up with a guess. After simply saying goodbye to Xiaolan and Fei Yingli, Gao Yuan followed Sato Miwako and left the ward——
"How about it, did Mr. Akechi find anything? Should we go to the car repair shop you mentioned before and meet up with Yumi?"
After walking out of the ward, after hearing the answers from Fei Yingli and Xiaolan, neither of them had any substantive answers. This was no different from the previous investigation by the police. Miwako Sato asked Gao Yuan curiously, wondering if there was any reason to ask again.
What's the purpose.
In this regard, Gao Yuan simply said:
"Officer Miyamoto is currently investigating the repair shop and the scene of the car accident. There is no rush to join her for the time being. For now, it is better to go to the French restaurant where Mr. Mori and his family ate before. Maybe we will find something!"
"Do you think that Lawyer Fei Yingli likes to eat Swiss chocolate, or was it overheard by gangsters while eating in that restaurant?"
Miwako Sato looked at Gao Yuan's attitude and asked with some suspicion.
"Yes. Mr. Maoli and Lawyer Fei have been separated for so many years. Since Lawyer Fei has not revealed her preferences to others, Mr. Maoli should not tell outsiders about his separated wife's preferences without any reason.
In that case, the only possible situation is the chance to have dinner, and the gangster might know about it!"
Having said that, since my vehicle has been damaged, I can only ride in Miwako Sato's red "MAZDARX-7" for today's trip, and Miwako Sato will take me there.
However, just as the two of them got into the car and were about to leave the hospital, Miwako Sato received a call from Wataru Takagi——
