Conan's Beginning was Picked Up by Xiaolan

Chapter 20 Luxury Cruise Ship Serial Murder Case 2

"It's strange, what's going on?" Kogoro was a little confused looking at everyone's reactions.

"You must not let my grandfather know. He hates that kind of detective the most. He says that kind of person is a despicable fellow who follows people all day and digs into their privacy."

At this time, Hatamoto Natsue explained and gave some special instructions.

Xiao Cheng thought about Kogoro's state before Conan came. This... this is a god! How can he describe it so accurately?

At this moment, Hatamoto Takeshi was walking towards them from a distance with a gloomy look on his face.

"Xiao Wu, I've been waiting for you for a long time. What's wrong? You look a little ugly."

Seeing Hatamoto Takeshi coming over, Hatamoto Natsue immediately went up to him with a look of concern on his face.

"Sorry, I had something to do in the room just now, so I'm late." Hatamoto Takeshi said apologetically.

"Hey, where's the corsage?" At this time, Hatamoto Natsue noticed that Hatamoto Takeshi's corsage was missing.

"Strange, maybe it fell somewhere." Hatamoto Takeshi looked at his chest. When he heard what Xia Jiang said, he was also a little confused.

"Uh...Ah!"

At this time, a voice came from the housekeeper. Xiao Cheng didn't care about the expressions of the people on the scene. The plot would not unfold, but I still couldn't remember which plot this was!

Everyone ran over, including Xiaocheng.

Looking at old man Hatamoto Gozo who was lying on the ground with blood flowing, he knew it was confirmed.

When everyone arrived, Kogoro Mouri stopped everyone and began to check and talk about the condition of the body.

Xiaocheng was racking his brains to think about the plot. Damn, I haven't watched it for a long time and I can't remember it when I need it.

On the scene, Kogoro was asking the first person to discover the situation at the time to confirm that the scene had not been tampered with and to eliminate his suspicion.

Just as a group of people were clamoring about the old man committing suicide, Conan confidently expressed another conclusion.

"No, it was murder. The reason is very obvious."

"It's you again." Kogoro was a little angry. This kid was not good in every way, especially his love of wandering around the crime scene.

"Uncle, stop making noise. Come and look at the door frame."

After hearing Conan's words, Kogoro was stunned, and then went forward to check.

"Isn't there blood here? If the door was closed when Grandpa committed suicide, there shouldn't be any blood here. So, Grandpa must have been killed with the door open."

Listening to Conan's words, Kogoro nodded, it did make sense.

But at this moment, some people questioned, if it was murder, who locked the door? At the same time, they also questioned Kogoro's professionalism.

Xiaocheng and Conan were speechless. Conan really couldn't stand it anymore, so he kicked Kogoro and signaled with his eyes that the old man closed the door himself.

Fortunately, Kogoro understood what he meant, and these words led to the surprise of the people present, and then the result naturally became obvious.

"He might have been stabbed outside the door, and then he fled into the room to escape the murderer, and finally the old man died."

As soon as he finished speaking, Conan put on an admiring expression and said something like "Uncle is great", which made Kogoro a little proud.

But then everyone became a suspect. The crime happened around eight o'clock in the evening. He then asked the housekeeper if he had found anything strange at the scene.

Then Butler Suzuki took out a corsage, which was the one that Takeshi Hatamoto had worn on his chest before.

Instantly everyone's eyes were focused on Hatamoto Takeshi.

The first to speak up was Mariko Hatamoto, who began to tell the story of Hatamoto Takeshi's life.

It turns out that his father is Zaishiro Yufu, whose company was taken away by old man Gozo Hatamoto ten years ago.

And he was none other than Takehiko Zaishi, the son of Isao Zaishi.

Because his property was taken away, Yongfu committed suicide. A year later, his wife also died, and his only son was sent to an orphanage.

Tsk tsk, oh my god, even if I don’t remember the plot now, I think you are the only choice for the murderer, Xiaocheng thought in his heart.

Hatamoto Natsue looked incredulous and asked Hatamoto Takeshi. Hatamoto Takeshi looked at the question asked by his beloved and could not bear to lie, so he admitted it, but he did not kill anyone.

Kogoro's subsequent words put Hatamoto Takeshi in a disadvantageous position, and Xia Jiang just ran away.

"You approached Xia Jiang and sneaked into the Hatamoto family in order to avenge your father, and then waited for the right time to strike. You thought you could strike tonight."

"No...it's not like that, I...I didn't kill anyone." Hatamoto Takeshi defended himself.

Looking at Hatamoto Natsue leaving, he wanted to chase him, but unexpectedly he was grabbed back by Hatamoto Shoji. The scene suddenly became a little noisy.

"Conan, I don't think he is the murderer." Xiao Cheng said softly to Conan.

"Um... why..." Conan was still thinking, when he heard what Xiaocheng said, was Xiaocheng also good at reasoning? Or did he discover something?

"Think about it, it's been so short since this incident happened, and Uncle Kogoro has actually directly identified the criminal. This doesn't conform to science. It's impossible, absolutely impossible..."

Listening to Xiaocheng's words, Conan curled his lips and asked, "What are you talking about?"

Ignoring Xiaocheng, he began to carefully observe the scene to see if there were any clues left.

At the same time, he asked Butler Suzuki about the location of the boutonniere, and soon he found the bread crumbs in the blood.

Afterwards, he asked Butler Suzuki about the bread. Butler Suzuki gave him a brief account and mentioned Shoji Hatamoto who could cook Western food.

Finally, he touched Conan's little head and told Conan to be obedient, telling him not to care so much about a little kid.

Conan nodded obediently, while Xiaocheng looked at a group of people locking up Takeshi Hatamoto, feeling a little bored.

Although he didn't remember the plot, he was sure that this guy was not the murderer.

You want to ask why, in this world, do you understand science or do I?

After returning to the restaurant, Butler Suzuki served everyone a glass of juice.

However, the people of the Hatamoto family in the restaurant were not sad. On the contrary, they were all very happy that their important rival for property was gone.

Xiaocheng looked at this scene and felt that people's hearts have changed. It seemed that only Hatamoto Xiajiang was sad about the old man's death, while the rest of the people were all after his property. Big families are really messy.

At this moment, Butler Suzuki seemed to be unable to bear it anymore, and stood up and said that Hatamoto Gozo had made a will before his death.

These words undoubtedly dropped a bombshell on everyone present, and they all thought of a possibility at the same time.

Finally, the words of Butler Suzuki confirmed for them that all the inheritance would be given to Hatamoto Natsue, and the Hatamoto Group would also be handed over to him for management.

Seeing the funny scene, Xiao Cheng almost laughed out loud. The old man still had some brains.
