Conan's Almighty Extraction
Chapter 42 The Second Dead
Conan searched the room for a while, and found some kind of tiny residue in the blood on the floor, so he picked up the foreign object, put it in front of his nose, smelled it, and pinched it with his hands to judge the foreign object what kind of thing.
After careful identification, Conan thoughtfully pulled Baiyan Mau's sleeve gently, and reminded in a low voice: "Brother Mau, look, these are bread crumbs."
"Huh? Breadcrumbs?" Shiraiwa Maha didn't comprehend Conan's thoughts, so he asked inexplicably, "What's wrong with the breadcrumbs?"
Conan's eyes flickered, and he explained: "The previous Uncle Xiang Er, didn't he say that Mr. Xiaoben hates Western food, so the bread crumbs must have fallen here from the murderer."
"That's useless. After all, bread is a very common item in Western food. Except for Mr. Xiaoben, everyone who attended the wedding banquet today has probably come into contact with bread."
Shiraiwa Maha didn't pay much attention to the clue that Conan found, but Conan, who had an amazing intuition for solving cases, thought it was a very important clue and kept it in his heart silently.
The debate over there quickly ended. Takehiko Caishi was identified as the murderer of Mr. Sumoto, and then everyone locked him in a closed warehouse, and planned to send him to the Metropolitan Police Department after the cruise ship returned to Tokyo. .
In order to wait for Master Suomoto who is the head of the family, everyone in the restaurant did not start eating. They were already hungry at the moment, so after taking Caicheng Takehiko into custody, everyone returned to the restaurant for dinner.
On the way, Akie Harumoto approached Mori Kogoro, and asked with a smile, "Mr. Detective, are Xiaowu's motives and evidence sufficient? Can the police directly convict him?"
"Well, there is a motive, but the evidence is only the corsage left at the murder scene."
Mori Kogoro stroked his chin and thought for a while, then replied: "If we can find the murder weapon that killed Mr. Suomoto, and find Xiaowu's fingerprints from it, we can truly confirm that he is the murderer."
Bai Yanzhenyu also heard the conversation between the two, and said casually: "I'm afraid it will be difficult. After all, it has been a long time since the crime was discovered and we discovered it, and the sea is outside. I am afraid that the murder weapon has long been thrown into the sea. .”
"That's it, then we can only rely on the police." Yuan Benqiujiang seemed a little reconciled, but he didn't say anything more.
After returning to the dining room, Butler Suzuki brought food for everyone, and Shiraiwa Maha and the four sat in the corner to eat, while the other members of the Naimoto Clan except for Natsue Urumoto were there to discuss the issue of inheritance distribution openly, without any concern Saddened by the death of the old man.
"Auntie, it seems that our luck is really good."
Qiujiang Kuimoto looked at Mariko Kuimoto who was sitting not far away, and said happily, "Grandpa has been killed by Xiao Wu, so he can no longer have a hand in inheriting the inheritance, right?"
"Hehe, well said..."
Mariko Kumimoto smiled and said excitedly, "Father is dead, so the Kumimoto Group belongs to my husband, and Ichiro can also show his talents in the field of painting with peace of mind."
"Hi, aunt, what do you mean?"
Akie Kuimoto's husband, Tatsuo Kuimoto, looked at Mariko Kuimoto, who looked like the new head of the family, with dissatisfaction, and asked, "Do you want to monopolize the property left by grandpa?"
"Don't worry, I will share with you two," Mariko Kuimoto looked at the silent Ichiro Kuimoto dotingly, and said firmly, "However, the Kuimoto Group must belong to my son Ichiro." .”
"Sister, this is not good. Dad just passed away, and you are here to discuss the inheritance. Let's talk about it after the funeral."
Shoji Somoto, who was still quite calm, noticed the existence of Shiraiwa Maha and others, and frowned to remind the other people who had started arguing.
"Hmph, Xiangji, don't pretend to be there, don't you care about inheritance?"
Mariko Somoto gave Shoji Somoto a sideways look, and said with a sneer, "Don't think I don't know, you once went to borrow money from your father to open a western restaurant, but you were severely scolded by your father."
Seeing that everyone was about to quarrel for the inheritance, the butler Suzuki, who knew many things about Master Suimoto, hurried over and persuaded him: "Well, I have something to report to everyone. In order to prevent accidents, the master set up a long time ago. will."
"Nani?! If you say that, the old man has already planned to give all his property to Xia Jiang?!"
After listening to Butler Suzuki's words, the expressions of several members of the Soben family changed drastically, because they had more or less heard some rumors before, saying that Mr. Soben was going to hand over all the company and property to his favorite granddaughter, Soben Xia Jiang inherited.
"Yes, the content of the will is that the group will be managed by Ms. Xia Jiang. I think this news will be announced in the head office in the next few days." Butler Suzuki nodded calmly, affirming the guesses of the others.
"How is this possible"
Mariko Somoto, who was originally full of ambition, became ashen-faced at this moment, screaming in despair and resignation: "How could Dad do this?! Aren't we his relatives?!"
The little bastard-looking Ryuuu Ryumoto slammed his fist on the dining table and said angrily, "Damn it, if you don't get any inheritance, then what's the point of me marrying Qiu Jiang?!"
"Yuanben Longnan, what are you talking about?" Yanben Qiujiang looked at her husband in disbelief, and asked, "Could it be that you married me for grandpa's inheritance?"
Seeing that he had no hope of getting a huge amount of inheritance, Yan Ben Long Nan tore off his disguise, and replied with a sneer: "Of course, otherwise, who would marry a shrew like you?"
Zhen Ben Qiujiang was so angry at these words, he shouted and cursed: "You are a worthless bastard, you eat lazy all day long, and you like to gamble. Sooner or later, you will be chopped up and fed to the dogs."
As melon-eating people, Shiraiwa Maha and others were inconvenient to participate in the internal affairs of the Suomoto family, so they quickly finished the food on the plate, then quietly left the restaurant, and went to the deck to look for Saemoto Xiajiang who ran away sadly before.
When everyone found Xiaoben Xiajiang, they found that she was crying on the railing of the deck, apparently immersed in the double sorrow of her grandfather's death and her new husband's deception.
Bai Yanzhenyu and others walked over, and asked with concern: "Miss Xia Jiang, are you okay?"
"Nothing, just thinking about something."
However, before this sentence was finished, Xiao Ben Xiajiang's tears fell again, and he forced a few strands of smiles to disappear completely, crying in grief: "I have always believed in Xiao Wu so much, I never thought that he did it for revenge. Just married me, from now on, I will never trust anyone again!"
Faced with such a situation, Shiraiwa Maha and Conan didn't know what to do. In the end, it was Xiaolan who comforted him for a long time before Sumoto Natsue stopped crying.
At this moment, there was a dull heavy pounding sound from the lower deck, followed by a 'plop' sound of something falling into the sea.
"Conan, let's go take a look."
In order to find out about the sound, Shiraiwa Maha and Conan went to the lower deck to check. As a result, at the railing of the lower deck, they found the murdered Ryuo Sarumoto.
After careful identification, Conan thoughtfully pulled Baiyan Mau's sleeve gently, and reminded in a low voice: "Brother Mau, look, these are bread crumbs."
"Huh? Breadcrumbs?" Shiraiwa Maha didn't comprehend Conan's thoughts, so he asked inexplicably, "What's wrong with the breadcrumbs?"
