Chapter 179 A Cocktail Full of Mystery - The Truth
"I didn't find anything wrong with him."
"What's wrong?"
"Because if I was the one who poisoned Yuri-san's cup, I would definitely be very concerned about the time, and I would be unable to help but sneak a peek at the store, thinking that it would be about time for her to drink the poisoned wine. The store would be in chaos, and so on. What do you think?"
"Very, very reasonable,"
"And I don't think the bunny girl did this either."
"Ok?"
"Let's say she poisoned Sister Yuri when she spilled the wine on her, and after that, Sister Yuri put the coaster on her glass."
"Then she went to the dressing room and changed her stained cuffs. I remember that at that time, the older sister received a call from a customer and walked away."
"Hello, Mr. Anda? Thank you for always calling me, but I'm sorry, this place is full right now. There will be a vacancy in an hour."
"If it were me, I would definitely stay there and not go anywhere."
"Because someone might take the wrong cup and drink the poisoned wine, and that would be a big problem."
"Yes, that's true."
"Right?"
"Um,"
"I think Uncle Kogoro thinks so too."
"Oh, yes,"
Amuro Toru looked at them. "In this case, the only one left is Mr. Atsushi Fukamachi, who was sitting next to Miss Yuri's glass at the time of the incident. Am I right? Butler Fukamachi."
"Hey, didn't you hear what Fukamachi said just now? When Yuri put the wine glass on the table, Fukamachi, he wasn't wearing glasses."
"So how can he determine which cup contains her and then poison it?"
"It's okay. Mr. Fukamachi has something in his hand that can replace his eyes, right?"
"Do you have something that can replace glasses, Fukamachi?"
"Yeah. No, I was just checking messages on my phone at that time,"
"You heard it all, he said, he only had a cell phone in his hand at that time."
"Yeah. So..."
"Wow! Cell phones are really amazing,"
"Hey, Conan, be quiet. The police are investigating the case now."
"Sister Xiaolan, look, just open the camera on your phone like this. Adjust the focus and you can see Sister Xiaolan's fingertips very clearly, just like a magnifying glass."
"Ah."
Amuro Toru lowered his head and hugged Lingzi beside him, rubbing her head with his chin. Lingzi pulled Amuro Toru's chin, "My hair style is going to be messed up!"
"It's fine."
Lingzi pouted to express her dissatisfaction.
"That's right, as long as you use your mobile phone,"
"Even without glasses, I can see clearly,"
"I remember a clerk said that Ms. Yuri likes to wear nail polish with lily patterns. So, as long as you check the nail polish, you can know which cup she is wearing."
"But, but Fukamachi was not wearing glasses at the time. It was purely accidental. I accidentally stepped on his eyes and broke them, so he didn't wear them."
Maori Kogoro looked at his panic and said, "But, that was not accidental, it was planned by him."
"He knew that you had a habit of pouring sauce on your omelette, but he deliberately placed the sauce far away from you so that you would have to take a step to get it."
"Then, he deliberately put the glasses on the ground so that others would think you stepped on them accidentally."
Amuro Toru looked at Mr. Morooka, "However, he designed you to step on the glasses and break them, not only so that he could smoothly carry out the method of committing the crime that he had already planned. In fact, it was also to keep you away from the poisoning scene to avoid suspicion."
"But his efforts were in vain, because when you went to get your glasses, you happened to pass by Ms. Yuri who was holding the cup. In the end, you were still suspected by the police."
“Is that so, Fukamachi?”
"When you left the store to go to the parking lot, Mr. Fukamachi deliberately set off the alarm on his cell phone so that Ms. Arisato would put her glass on the table to check the earthquake news."
"Then, he used the camera on his phone to find out which cup Ms. Yuri had. He then poisoned the cup."
"In that case, the phone used to sound the alarm and the phone used to peek into Ms. Yuri's wine glass should not be the same one."
"Therefore, if we search Mr. Fukamachi's body, I think we should be able to find the two phones."
"Well, I'm sorry, Mr. Fukamachi, please let me check it."
"Don't bother, officer."
“I did carry two phones with me, and I bought another one, and I practiced a lot.”
"For my late wife,"
"You, you poisoned Yuri because of my wife?"
"Yes, I want you to wake up completely."
"Let me wake up?"
"If it had been a while since my wife passed away, and you wanted to find someone else, I would have no objection. But the problem is that it has not been half a year since my wife passed away, and you, sir, have been bewitched by that little girl."
"I have been serving my wife since she was young. I feel that she is so pitiful."
"So I took it upon myself to give the girl some money and asked her not to approach you again, but she refused me."
"I had no choice but to send threatening letters. But I didn't expect that these letters had no effect on her, so I decided to kill her."
"I thought that if the girl you liked was in danger, you would not come to this store again, so I designed all this."
"Master. This is my last request. Please agree to it. Please don't make my wife sad anymore, okay?"
"I said Fukamachi, you are mistaken."
"My relationship with her is not what you think."
"I guess she should be..."
Amuro Toru finally told the truth, "Your daughter, right?"
Everyone looked at Amuro Toru in surprise, "Daughter?!!"
Ms. Murakami looked at Toru Amuro and said, "Please, stop talking nonsense here. You can't assume that they are father and daughter just because they both like to pour sauce on their omelettes, right?"
"Of course not. Even though their flavors are rare, it's possible that they just happen to have the same flavor."
"But even the way they hold chopsticks is unique. When they hold chopsticks, they both raise their index fingers unconsciously. This cannot be explained simply by coincidence."
"When you were young, you eloped with someone and lived in Tottori Prefecture for four years. Ms. Yuri is the daughter you gave birth to with someone else during that time."
"She lived with you for a while when she was little, so she learned the way you hold chopsticks,"
"That explains everything."
"You lose weight suddenly in a short period of time, and then gain weight again suddenly, in order to change your body shape."
"I've been falling a lot lately, so I buy new suits just to tear them up."
"This way you have a reason to go to the suit shop next door, and then naturally come to this shop to sit down. In fact, this is all for the purpose of being able to see your daughter, Ms. Yuri."
"Yes, I recognized her as my daughter right away without even having to look at the way she held the chopsticks."
"She looks exactly like her mother. I've noticed that. And the name Yuri was also given to her by me at the time."
"That's why he's so anxious,"
"Hey! Are you okay?"
"Arisato! Arisato!"
"And you call Miss Youli so intimately,"
"But sir, why didn't you tell me this earlier?"
"I really can't say it. You have been so loyal to my wife for so many years. How can I tell you that I want to see my illegitimate daughter?"
"but······"
"Besides, my wife and I don't have any children, which makes me even more embarrassed to say it."
"I didn't expect it. I totally misunderstood."
"What have I done to your daughter, sir?"
"How could this happen? How could this happen?"
Mr. Fukamachi collapsed to his knees.
Officer Takagi answered the call, "Oh, I see. That's great. Thank you very much for coming to let me know."
"See you."
Inspector Megure looked at his agitated expression and asked, "What's the matter?"
Officer Takagi smiled, "The hospital just called and said that Ms. Yuri has regained consciousness and should be fine. She will be discharged soon."
"Oh."
Xiaolan smiled, "That's great."
Miss Murakami also patted her chest. What a situation.
Lingzi tilted her head, so the result should be considered a good one.
"It's great, it's great."
"Fukamachi,"
"After a while, let's go visit Yuri and apologize to her, okay?"
"No, no, I don't have the face to see the young lady now."
"It's okay. Just explain it to her and she will forgive you."
"After all, she is my daughter,"
"Thank you, thank you, sir."
Fukamachi knelt in front of Mr. Morooka and cried.
Amuro Toru hugged Lingzi's waist and said, "Why is it so quiet tonight?"
Lingzi tilted her head to look at him, "Because nothing, I was just wondering if anyone hasn't had dinner yet."
Lingzi tapped his fingers and said, "Even if the things I brought are kept warm, they might be cold by now."
Amuro Toru was stunned for a moment, "Lingzi..."
That's it, he forgot about it.
"besides······"
Lingzi didn't finish what he said, letting Amuro Toru savor it on his own.
Mr. Morooka straightened up and looked at Amuro Toru, "But I didn't expect you to guess it right. I did lose weight and gain weight suddenly just to see my daughter."
"right."
Of course I understand that.
Because when I was a kid, I wanted to see that female doctor too.
He deliberately hurt himself and ran to the clinic where the doctor worked to see her.
Xiaolan came over and said, "By the way, Mr. Amuro."
Amuro Toru was stunned for a moment, then looked at Xiaolan, "What's wrong?"
Xiaolan smiled and thanked Amuro Toru, "Thank you for picking up my wallet. Thank you so much."
"Ah... So that wallet is yours, Xiaolan."
Xiaolan nodded, "Yes."
"Then you haven't lost anything in your wallet, right?"
"No, the money and the house keys are all in there."
Amuro Toru smiled, "Really? That's great."
Lingzi looked at Xiaolan and said, "Be careful next time. Pay attention and don't lose it again."
"I understand. Thank you, Miss Lingzi."
Lingzi shook his head, "It's okay."
Lingzi blinked, "Can we go now, Mr. Detective? I'm afraid someone will starve to death here today."
"In the end, I couldn't even get through the door."
Lingzi whispered these words into Toru Amuro's ear.
Amuro Toru looked at Lingzi in disbelief, "Lingzi..."
Lingzi shrugged, "What a pity."
Amuro Toru shook his head frantically, "No, no."
Lingzi smiled and said, "It's time to go."
Amuro Toru nodded, "Let's go."
Anyway, Inspector Megure and the others are busy now, so it doesn't matter if they leave.
Amuro Toru took Lingzi's hand and walked away. Lingzi blinked her eyes and said, "Seeing that you don't care about your own health because of these things day by day, I thought you didn't care where to rest at night."
Lingzi sighed with pretended regret, "I thought you didn't care about this either."
"Feather..."
Gong Yue didn't want to talk anymore, so he opened the car door and got in. Furugaya Ling sat in the driver's seat. Gong Yue handed the insulated lunch box to Furugaya Ling, "Eat. I'll eat until you die."
Fūya Ling smiled and said, "I'll eat it now, so don't be angry."
Gong Yue was deflated, "Okay, just eat quickly."
"It's still warm now, not cold yet, you're lucky."
How could we dare to let him eat cold dishes and cold meals? It's not good for his health.
Gong Yue shrugged, "Okay, let's eat quickly."
Gong Yue closed her eyes and fell asleep.
Fūya Rei watched as Miyatsuki fell asleep and quickened his eating pace.
He put the lunch box behind him and wiped his mouth.
He tilted his head and saw that Gong Yue was not wearing a seat belt, so he stood up and fastened it for her.
Started the car and left.
Furugaya Rei's car was driving very fast and he arrived at the base in no time.
Fūya Rei stopped the car and was about to wake up Miyazuki, but when he turned around he saw Miyazuki's clear eyes.
"You're not asleep?"
Gong Yue smiled, "How come?"
"I fell asleep for a while. I'm a little tired and don't want to talk."
"are you tired?"
Gong Yue shook her head, "I'm not particularly tired, I just feel tired."
Fūya Rei touched her head, leaned over and kissed her forehead, "Recharge. Replenish your energy."
Miyatsuki turned his head and looked at Furuya Rei, then held Furuya Rei's hand and said, "Okay, let's charge."
Gong Yue put his hand on her cheek and rubbed it, it felt warm.
Gong Yue closed her eyes and said, "Take a rest for ten minutes."
"Come back up in ten minutes."
Fūya Ling nodded and closed his eyes to take a rest. He was indeed tired from planning and discussing this and that in the past few days.
