Conan's corpse picker

Chapter 1214 1214 [The joy of acting]

"It has nothing to do with cartoons."

Conan interrupted: "Actually, I saw Ms. Ichikawa poisoning in the luggage storage room before. But when I was going to tell others, someone numbed me from behind with a handkerchief soaked in anesthetic—so this murder case, there must be another insider. The case may not be closed."

Dr. Utsumi breathed a sigh of relief when he heard these words:

It seems that I think too much, the matter has nothing to do with me, and I don't know which guy is unnecessary.

In this case, there is no need to rush to silence Jiang Xia and that child.

……

After listening to Conan's words, the police were dubious.

He looked back at the items put out by everyone: "But we checked just now, and there is no 'handkerchief stained with anesthetic' as you mentioned, and there is no similar drug..."

Right next to it, several police officers carried out Ichikawa Kotaro's body.

The moment the stretcher left the ground, following the subtle changes in the posture of the corpse, a key slipped out of his pocket and fell to the ground with a clang.

Jiang Xia glanced down and looked at the butler: "Which key is this?"

"This style..." The housekeeper took a closer look, with doubts on his face: "It should be the key to the basement. However, the master never goes to the basement. Let's go get... why does he have the key there with him?"

Conan hesitated, "I was locked in the basement just now..."

Could it be that the person who stunned him was Ichikawa Kotaro himself?

Why did this man drink it knowing that the wine was poisonous?No matter how he looked, he didn't look like he wanted to commit suicide. Could it be that he was obsessed with being a riddle, so...

……

Conan instinctively felt that something was wrong, and carefully observed the surroundings, trying to find out the problem and solve the mystery.

At this time, a voice suddenly came from the side.

"I seem to know why Mr. Ichikawa always won't let me in the house." Jiang Xia looked at the side wall and fixed his eyes on a portrait.

It was Ichikawa Kotaro's own portrait, a very large one, inlaid on the wall made of interlaced wooden edges.The man in the picture has a majestic complexion and terrifying eyes. Looking at it makes people feel chills.

"Right eye." Jiang Xia pointed to the eye of the portrait, "His right eye hides a mini camera."

"Camera?" The police officer's eyes lit up, and he couldn't believe it immediately—it's really rare that there is surveillance at the scene of the crime... No, we can't be too happy.What if it's a bad one.

After discovering something was wrong, those hidden organs were not so hidden in the eyes of everyone.

A group of people soon discovered that there were wires hidden in the frame.It goes all the way up from the mini monitor and leads to the upstairs room.

The police, detectives, and the melon-eaters immediately ran upstairs again.

Dr. Utsumi looked at this scene with an unwavering expression:

The content captured by surveillance, but in the future he plans to use it to pinpoint the real culprit.If this matter is discovered by the police and detectives, he will lose a useful tool in the future... Tsk, nosy detective.

……

It's a pity that the killing intent in Doctor Neihai's heart couldn't stop what happened next.

It even gave some detectives a little more motivation.

When I got upstairs, I saw that there was indeed a TV set here.It's on standby and looks set up and ready to play anytime.

The police quickly set up a video recorder and pointed it at the screen, preparing to record evidence that might appear.

Technician tries to adjust play button.

Soon, the scene that happened in the waiting room just now reappeared.

Referring to the various clues collected before, the playback progress was adjusted to after Ichikawa poured red wine for his father.

……

Ichikawa Kotaro took the wine handed by his daughter, with a look of arrogance that "everything is under control" flashed across his eyes.

He pretended to be tasting wine, but he didn't drink it right away. Instead, he found a topic and chatted with his daughters, pacing the hall while chatting.

When he walked to the side of the cabinet, Kotarou Ichikawa secretly poured the wine into the flower pot while no one was paying attention to him.Then he raised his head and "drank" a few sips into the empty wine glass.

Immediately afterwards, he covered his chest and fell to the ground with a painful face.

A group of people ran over in a panic, and some people screamed.

After that, it is something that everyone knows.

——Detectives and doctors ran over, tried to give first aid, failed first aid, and called the police with tears in their eyes.

……

"Quick, go and check that flower pot that was poured with wine!" The police officer hurriedly called out.

Afterwards, he touched the back of his head, a little puzzled: "Since he didn't drink, why did Mr. Ichikawa suddenly get sick? Could it be that he found out that his daughter poisoned him and died of anger?"

Next to him, Jiang Xia seemed to be still watching the surveillance seriously.

He looked at the screen and said suddenly: "After Mr. Ichikawa fell to the ground, Dr. Okano rushed to give him first aid and gave him a 'stimulant shot'."

The police officer in Sanchong County was startled, and quickly understood what Jiang Xia was talking about.

He went to call his subordinates again: "Go and check the ingredients in that 'cardiac needle'!"

"Oh, no need."

Dr. Okano stared at himself in the monitor, his face livid.

If he continues to quibble, it seems that he will only appear cowardly. He simply kept his last dignity and blew himself up: "I killed him, but I don't regret killing him!"

The police officer liked this kind of straightforward criminal the most, so he quickly struck while the iron was hot, motioning him to elaborate:

"What exactly happened?"

Dr. Okano looked at the direction where the corpse was carried away, and sneered mockingly:

"A while ago, Ichikawa Kotaro had a whim and said that he wanted to test his two daughters. He planned to pretend that he had a 'heart attack' to see what attitude and reaction his daughters would have.

"Inviting a well-known detective to stand guard at the banquet hall is also to make the two eldest ladies tense outside, and relax their vigilance when they return to the living room, revealing the real scene.

"In practice, it was probably discovered that Miss Yizhong had poisoned the red wine, so he temporarily changed 'heart attack' to 'death from poisoning', and there was no change in the follow-up."

Suzuki Sonoko and Mao Lilan were silent for a while.

They didn't expect that things would develop like this: "..." Why do you want to act in such an unlucky and dangerous scene?Wouldn't this give Mr. Ichikawa extra pleasure?

The police officer understood: "So you plan to take advantage of the situation. When giving first aid to Mr. Ichikawa, inject poison to kill him, and then blame Ichikawa?"

"That's right." A flash of resentment flashed in Dr. Okano's eyes, "Ichikawa is a bastard who only has money in his eyes, he deserves to die!"
