It's reasonable to have more than 100 million vests in the world of science, right?

Chapter 809: No Way to Pass

Kogoro Mori, who didn't know that his itinerary had been arranged properly, was still thinking hard in the basement.

The maids who witnessed the flash of the dark figure have been taken away by the police for questioning.

The time of death of the deceased has also been determined to be between 10:30 and 12:00.

Based on the weapon found on the victim's back and the angle at which it was inserted, they ruled out the possibility that the murderer was Reiichi Akiyama.

Based on Yukawa Kiyomi's body shape, it would be difficult for Akiyama Reiichi to stab her in the back of the heart while facing her. However, Yukawa Kiyomi's injuries were caused by someone holding a weapon high up and then stabbing it, with the weapon inserted diagonally into her back.

Moreover, Akiyama Reiichi was imprisoned here. Unless Yukawa Jiemi took the murder weapon himself, it would be difficult for him to get a sharp weapon such as a fruit knife.

In addition to Reiichi Akiyama, Masaki Yukawa was also ruled out because he had been drinking and chatting with Kogoro Mori himself at the time of the deceased's death.

Kogoro Mori thought for a moment.

It seems that those maids are very suspicious.

However, we will have to wait until Officer Nakai finishes the interrogation to find out what kind of relationship they have with Katsume Yukawa.

When Kogoro Mouri left the basement and came to the living room, he saw Ran Mouri and others chatting. The atmosphere seemed quite harmonious.

Kogoro Mori walked up to them, put his fist to his lips and coughed lightly.

The four of them turned to look at him, with confusion in their eyes.

"I want to see your neck. Is it convenient for you?" Kogoro Mouri looked at Reiichi Akiyama and asked him while pointing at his neck.

"Ok."

Akiyama Lian nodded, pulled her collar down a little, then tilted her head back to expose her neck.

Kogoro Mouri looked left and right, and saw a few small wounds on the right side of his neck. He nodded to indicate that it was okay.

Akiyama Reiichi lowered his head and raised his hand to touch his neck.

"I'll go get some medicine." Kuno Nayazuki suddenly stood up and walked quickly towards the room, but soon she came back with some medical supplies in her hands.

She looked at Akiyama Reiichi and said, "Show your neck again."

Akiyama Reiichi blinked in confusion.

"The marks on your neck look a bit serious. Applying some medicine will make them better."

Qian Zhu next to her smiled and explained.

Akiyama Reiichi blinked again, a trace of timidity on his face, "It's okay, it's okay without applying medicine..."

Kuno Nayazuki raised her eyebrows slightly, stuffed the things in her hand to Qianzhu, then held down Akiyama Reiichi with a smirk on her face, "Come, I'll hold him down, and you apply the medicine to him."

Akiyama Lian was stunned and so frightened that she dared not move. Her whole body seemed to be frozen.

Qianzhu was helpless.

Mao Lilan turned her head slightly to hide the smile on her face.

Qianzhu took out the ointment and gently applied it on Akiyama Reiichi's neck. After applying it evenly, he took out a bandage and wrapped it around him.

After taking a look at the bandage that had been tied, Kuno Nayazuki let go of Akiyama Reiichi with satisfaction. When she lowered her head, she saw a blush on his cheeks.

Kuno Nayazuki raised her eyebrows slightly and poked his cheek with her finger.

"How cute! She even blushes."

Then Akiyama Reiichi's cheeks became even redder, and she lowered her head like a shy quail.

Chitake smiled and turned her head to look at Conan who was sneaking behind Kogoro Mouri.

The murderer in this case hid himself so well that it would be difficult to find him without some effort.

Qianzhu and other three stayed in the living room and did not interfere with the police's investigation.

It was not until two hours later that there was new progress in the case, and Yukawa Masaki also ordered the servants to prepare some midnight snacks.

Akiyama Lian sat at the table, looking down at the steaming noodle soup, with a dazed look on her face, not knowing what she was thinking.

Qianzhu looked at him suspiciously, leaned closer to him, and asked in a low voice: "What's wrong?"

Akiyama Reiichi blushed slightly and replied shyly, "I...I don't know how to use...chopsticks."

Qian Zhu was stunned for a moment, then nodded in understanding. Then, she called the servant who was waiting nearby and said to her softly, "Could you please bring a fork?"

"Ok. Please wait for a moment."

The servant nodded and went to get a fork.

Qianzhu took the fork from her hand and thanked her, then handed it to Akiyama Reiichi and asked patiently, "Do you know how to use a fork?"

Akiyama Rei nodded slightly, "Yes."

While eating supper, Conan was also piecing together the clues he had found. Suddenly, an idea came to him, and he threw the half-eaten noodle soup away, got up and ran to the basement.

Mao Lilan looked up at him, opened her mouth, but said nothing, and finally sighed helplessly.

Kuno Nayazuki glanced at her and suggested, "After dinner, let's discuss the detailed strategy of taking Lianyi on a 'trip', shall we?"

"Okay." Mao Lilan thought about it, nodded and responded, her mood also lifted a little, "After all, there are still many things to consider."

"Besides wanting to see the cherry blossoms, is there anything else that Reiichi wants to experience?"

Mao Lilan turned to look at Akiyama Reiichi and asked.

Akiyama Rei raised her head, blinked, and after thinking for a while, her eyes lit up slightly, "I want to go see the sea and the fireflies."

After he finished speaking, the light in his eyes went out for a moment, and he shrank his neck slightly, "...Is it too much?"

"No, no!" Mao Lilan waved her hands, with a smile on her face like the warm spring sun.

But in fact, she didn't know why she wanted to help Reiichi Akiyama fulfill his wish.

Mao Lilan turned her head and looked at Kuno Nayoshi, and felt that she felt the same as her.

After having supper, they sat in the living room to discuss. After they came to a conclusion, Conan and his friends also found the real murderer.

He was one of the ones who said they were going to the bathroom as a team.

She chose to kill Katsume Yukawa because she had indirectly killed her child.

She had known for a long time that Yukawa Jiemi had imprisoned Akiyama Reiichi in the basement, so she had conceived the method of murder early on.

Before being taken into the police car, she looked at Reiichi Akiyama with twinkling eyes, smiled bitterly, and tears rolled out of her eyes.

"sorry."

She knew that saying sorry was useless. It didn't hurt or itch, and it couldn't make up for what had already happened.

She had the chance to rescue him sooner, but she chose not to do so, instead opting for her own selfish desire for revenge.

Moreover, her actions could not be simply explained away as being blinded by hatred.

"It doesn't matter......"
