Chapter 5 5. This is murder!

"Inspector, come and look! There's something like that under the sofa!"

Inspector Megure turned his head but didn't see who was talking.

Of course he couldn't find the person who was talking, because Conan realized that he was completely unable to interrupt the adults' quarrel by relying on his status as a child, so he was forced to hide behind the sofa and use a voice changer to give a reminder.

Yonogi Rina found some detective story feelings from the tone of the riddle man, especially when Inspector Megure pulled out an ordinary earring from under the sofa. Why do detectives like to use expressions like "that person" and "that thing" when talking? Is earring a blocked word? Is it better than the real world at blocking...

"Ah! That... that's Yuko's." Ms. Yoko next to her also said in a detective story tone, "Ikezawa Yuko debuted at the same time as me. We often work together, so I recognize this pair of earrings."

Even after Ms. Yoko explained, Rina Nogi still admired the ability of people in detective stories to identify each other when they looked at the earrings, which were exaggerated in shape but not unique.

Another person related to the case, Ms. Yuko Ikezawa, was also invited to the scene.

As soon as Ms. Ikezawa Yuko appeared, she arrogantly admitted that she resented Yoko because her opportunity was taken away from her, but when asked whether she had been to the apartment, she still chose to deny it under the evidence of the earring and the testimony of the apartment manager.

"How many times do I have to tell you before you understand? I really have never been here. Let me go back now."

But how could such an arrogant cannon fodder be a good person? Conan soon discovered her flaws.

"Ah! So this is a lighter!" Conan picked up the lighter in the shape of the Statue of Victory that the cannon fodder had just used, and used an exaggerated tone to attract everyone's attention.

The cocky high school detective didn't want to speak in such a tone if he could, but the few times he tried to point out evidence before were ignored by adults because he was too young.

"Conan!" He first attracted Feilan's attention. She didn't expect that the child would move things at the scene without paying attention, and was even playing with such a dangerous thing as a lighter.

"Big sister, you are amazing! You have never been here, but you know that this goddess is a lighter."

Yuko was sweating profusely, but she still tried to explain, "Well, that's because my friend's house has a similar one..."

"Which friend is it? I'll send someone to investigate!" Inspector Megure also thought that there was something wrong with Ikezawa Yuko, especially her attitude was really disgusting. How could he let her get away with it at this time?

"Big sister, where is the bathroom?"

"Huh? In that corridor over there."

Conan Edogawa delivered the final blow from the side. He became suspicious when the woman walked into the bathroom skillfully after entering the room. No one was willing to listen to his explanation at that time, but it was different now.

"You went straight to the bathroom just now, right? You said you had never been here before, so why are you so familiar with everything and hiding so many things? The murderer must be you!" The key words suggested by Conan allowed Megure Jusan to find a breakthrough and continue to put pressure on Ikezawa Yuko.

"No... I didn't kill him..." The cannon fodder female supporting role finally couldn't hold on any longer, "The man suddenly attacked me, so I resisted him! But I didn't kill him!"

"So you have been here!"

"Yes, I was here. I came in with the key I stole from the lounge."

……

Although Yuko Ikezawa stole the keys, committed intentional intimidation, and broke into a private house, she may not be the murderer. There are not many loopholes in her description. It is indeed difficult for a woman to kill such a strong adult man with one blow, especially if he was stabbed in the back.

He was stabbed in the back, and in his hand was the hair that the agent had secretly hidden during the chaos. There were no other signs of struggle on his body. Was it an attack by an acquaintance?

Or! Is it really as that auntie's nonsense? If it was that method, it is indeed possible, but why? Why would this man commit suicide in a stranger's house, unless...

As this man, Fujie Akiyoshi's identity was discovered by the police, Miss Idol could no longer hold back and revealed the man's identity. It turned out that he was Miss Idol's high school boyfriend, but she never saw him again after they broke up.

"You killed him just to end all ties with him!"

"No! That's not true!" Yoko Okino argued, "And he was the one who dumped me. But after I became famous, he often came to harass me and asked me to come back to him. I moved to this building to avoid him."

"When I saw the dead man's face, I knew it was him. But my agent asked me to keep it a secret, so I didn't admit it." Okino Yoko's confession was quite sincere, "But I really want to know why Mingyi was killed here."

Finally, she pleaded with Inspector Megure, "Please tell me! Who killed him?!"

"Who is it... well..." Inspector Megure was completely confused by the twists and turns of the case. "I have to say that Miss Yoko is the most suspicious at the moment. He harassed you so you have a motive to commit the crime. This is your home with easy access, and your fingerprints are also on the murder weapon."

Rina Yonogi had already argued with Inspector Megure, so when she heard him shift the suspicion to Okino Yoko, she had no worries and argued back, "If it was Miss Yoko, then there would be no need to ask me to investigate if the harasser was killed."

"She might have taken advantage of this mentality and deliberately found a detective to testify. Otherwise, she would be too suspicious."

"But Miss Yoko is a woman, how could she have the strength to stab a man in the back? Speaking of which, Mr. Manager is also a big suspect. You must want to get rid of a guy who keeps pestering his popular artists. Killing him is a good way to solve the problem."

"I...I..." Yamagishi Eiichi didn't expect that his suspicion would suddenly increase again, and his face was panicked.

"It's indeed easier to do this kind of thing with male strength." Inspector Megure looked at Yamagishi Eiji's hesitant look and felt that this guy was indeed suspicious.

"Right? Compared to the others, Mr. Manager is more suspicious. Judging from the fact that he asked Ms. Yoko to conceal Fujie Akiyoshi's identity and their relationship, he has a low tolerance for such scandals, which is sufficient motivation."

No! That's not right! Conan, the only one who saw through the truth, watched as everyone went further and further astray.

They must be stopped!

Auntie, I'm sorry!

Conan kicked the ashtray beside him, and with his football master's skills, he hit the target directly.

When Rina Yonogi fell down with her head in her hands, she only had time to think, damn, it was physical anesthesia, this is murder!
