Detective Conan: The System Takes Me to Zero's World
Chapter 146: Black Rabbit Pavilion Poisoning Incident
Amuro Toru clasped his hands together and rested his elbows on the table. "That person might also attack you outside this store."
Zhu Gangjunzang sat there calmly with a smile on his face: "No, I always bring two or three bodyguards with me when I go out, so that person only had the opportunity to take action in this store."
Upon hearing this, Kudo Yuki sat elegantly on the chair with her legs crossed.
Mao Lilan looked puzzled: "Why don't you have a bodyguard with you now?"
Morooka Gunzo's eyes were smiling, and his tone was relaxed: "Of course it's because if we bring a group of stern-looking strong men to this store, it will destroy the relaxed and happy atmosphere that should be here."
When Maori Kogoro heard this, an expression identical to that of Morooka Gunzo instantly appeared on his face, and he would occasionally glance at the bunny girls: "That's true."
Mao Lilan immediately glared at her father, her eyes full of reproach: "Dad!"
At this time, a bunny girl with a graceful figure came over and greeted him warmly: "Mr. Zhuogang, welcome. Thank you for visiting our store again today."
Morooka Gunzo smiled and responded, "It's Arisato, I came here today for something."
Asakura Yuri looked at Mao Lilan and Conan sitting inside, with a hint of curiosity in her eyes: "Hey, you brought your daughter too, and a little boy, so cute."
As Morooka Gunzo was about to introduce them, Maori Kogoro accidentally touched the bunny girl, causing her to scream. Maori Kogoro quickly smiled and said, "Sorry, sorry, I didn't mean to."
Morooka Gunzo glared at him and shouted, "Mr. Maori, this is not the kind of store you think it is."
Kudo Yuki's expression was still smiling, "Mr. Maori, what you did is extremely disrespectful to women."
Amuro Toru also looked unhappy and solemnly reminded Maori Kogoro: "Be careful or someone will sue you for sexual harassment."
The four men looked at Mouri Kogoro with vigilant eyes. Mouri Kogoro felt a little helpless: "I won't do that again." However, the four men obviously didn't believe it.
Morooka Gunzo smiled and looked at Asakura Yuri, trying to ease the atmosphere: "Okay, okay, I think we should order first. Yuri, you can also order anything you want."
Asakura Yuri happily sat down next to Morooka Gunzo and murmured coquettishly, "Can I order something to eat? I didn't have lunch and I'm starving now."
Morooka Gunzo readily agreed: "Of course, no problem."
Asakura Yuri picked up the menu and looked at it carefully: "Then I'll have a fruit platter, an omelet, and a sandwich."
Morooka Gunzo put his arm around Asakura Yuri's shoulders with a smile, "You really can eat, so I'll treat you tonight. Girls, you can all order whatever you want. And Fukamachi, don't be so reserved, sit down and drink with us."
Butler Fukamachi Atsushi sat next to his master, looking a little reserved. He took off his glasses and wiped them carefully with a glasses cloth to divert his attention: "But in a store like this, I don't know where to look."
"Sorry to have kept you waiting." A bunny girl walked to the table with dishes and placed them on the table.
Morooka Gunzo suddenly became happy, his eyes sparkling: "This omelette looks really good, let me try it."
He picked up the chopsticks and looked around for the sauce but couldn't find any. He then told the butler, Atsushi Fukamachi: "Fakamachi, can you please bring me the sauce from your place?"
Fukamachi Junshi turned his head back and forth to look for his glasses, looking anxious: "I clearly put it on the table just now, how come I can't find it now."
Seeing this, Morooka Gunzo stood up to get the sauce, but accidentally stepped on the glasses of butler Atsushi Fukamachi.
Morooka Gunzo looked down and said, "These are your glasses, right?" There was a hint of apology in his voice.
Fukamachi Atsushi looked puzzled and said, "I clearly put it on the table just now. It's okay. I have my spare glasses in the car. I'll go get them."
Morooka Gunzo called the butler, patted Fukamachi Atsushi on the shoulder, and said with concern: "Wait a moment, Fukamachi. You are not wearing your glasses. It is too dangerous to walk over like this. Let me get them from the car for you."
Fukamachi Atsushi stood up and said, "Thank you for your help. The spare glasses are in the storage compartment in front of the passenger seat."
Kogoro Mouri also stood up and said, "Then I'll go with you." After that, the two of them left the store.
Then, the alarm on the cell phone of butler Atsushi Fukamachi suddenly rang. Everyone in the store thought it was an earthquake alarm and became a little panicked.
"Sorry, I was just about to check my messages, but my phone rang on its own." Atsushi Fukamachi looked embarrassed.
Conan hurriedly walked to the side of the butler Atsushi Fukamachi and said, "Let me see it." He picked up Atsushi Fukamachi's mobile phone, skillfully canceled the alarm button, and then breathed a sigh of relief.
Amuro Toru explained patiently: "It's okay, it was just a false alarm. Be careful when you use it next time. If you press and hold the power button and volume up button at the same time on this type of phone, the phone will automatically sound an alarm."
"I see." Fukamachi Atsushi hastily apologized, his face full of guilt. "I'm so sorry."
Asakura Yuri smiled warmly: "It's okay."
Conan blinked his curious eyes with an innocent look on his face: "Hey, Miss Free, it seems like you all have your cell phones tucked behind your backs."
Asakura Yuri looked back and showed the position of the phone clipped on her back: "Yes, because there are often customers calling us to ask if there are many customers in our store. We also take the initiative to call customers and invite them to come to our store to play."
Behind came another bunny girl holding a red wine glass. It was Murakami Sana. She walked in a hurry and accidentally bumped into Asakura Arisato. The red wine spilled from the glass, leaving wine stains on Asakura Arisato's cuffs.
The bunny girl holding the red wine glass smiled and apologized: "Oh, I'm so sorry, there are spare cuffs in the locker room, go change them."
Asakura Yuri had to leave first to change her cuffs. Kudo Yuki saw this scene but did not say anything. However, in Kudo Yuki's bag, Shushu, who had poked his little head out, was watching with great interest, his little eyes rolling around.
After all the dishes were served, the four people began to taste the food.
Toru Amuro picked up the sandwich and took a bite. While eating, he silently stared at the rat in the Kudo snowpack until Kogoro Mori and Gunzo Morioka came back, then he looked away.
Morooka Gunzo handed the glasses to the butler Fukamachi Junshi, who gratefully took them and put them on. Morooka Gunzo found that Asakura Yuri was not there, and he looked around the store: "Yuri, where is she?"
Fukamachi Atsushi adjusted his glasses and said, "She just went to the lounge in a hurry."
Morooka Gunzo looked at the food on the table and said, "Everything she ordered is almost here, but why is she gone again?"
After a while, Asakura Yuri came to the table. When she saw the fruit platter, her eyes lit up and she said, "It looks delicious."
Morooka Gunzo made a gesture to Asakura Arisato to invite him to eat, "Try it quickly."
Asakura Yuri happily began to taste the food.
Kudo Yuki frowned slightly, thinking about the scene where Morooka Gunzo stepped on the glasses of Butler Fukamachi Junshi, with a puzzled look in her eyes. She looked at the table again, lost in thought, tapping the table lightly with her fingers.
Morooka Gunzo put down the fork in his hand and said, "What's the situation? Did you see any suspicious people?"
Maori Kogoro looked around and observed carefully: "It seems not."
Maori Kogoro turned his head and looked at Amuro Toru, his eyes full of expectation: "I say Amuro, did you see anything?"
Amuro Toru looked around cautiously, "No, I didn't notice anything unusual at all."
At this moment, Asakura Arisato picked up her glass of wine and drank it, then her face suddenly changed, and the wine in the glass, along with Asakura Arisato, fell to the ground.
Morooka Gunzo called Asakura Arisato's name, his voice full of panic, and was about to touch her when he was stopped by Mori Kogoro.
Maori Kogoro looked serious and shouted loudly: "Mr. Morooka, don't touch her for now. Xiaolan, call an ambulance and the police quickly."
Kudo Yuki and Conan walked over to Asakura Yuri and squatted down to check the situation. Morooka Gunzo's voice was trembling: "But, why is this happening?"
Fukamachi Atsushi looked at the fruit platter and asked, "Could it be that she got food poisoning because of the fruits she just ate?"
Kudo Yuki glanced at the butler Atsushi Fukamachi, a sharp look flashed in her eyes, and then she shifted her gaze to Conan.
The people who were unaware of the situation were now caught up in speculation, whispering to each other with nervous expressions.
Conan interrupted everyone's speculation and said, "That's impossible, because just now Uncle Moroka also ate the fruit on the plate, so it's impossible that only Sister Yuri got food poisoning.
Sister Yuri said that she was almost starving because she didn’t have lunch today, and food poisoning symptoms will not appear until at least 30 minutes after eating the food.
He spoke clearly and his little face was full of seriousness.
Kudo Yuki snorted, and Conan realized that he had stood out too much. He smiled awkwardly, scratched his head and explained: "This kind of experiment was once done on a quiz show on TV!"
As Toru Amuro walked towards Conan, his lips slightly raised, "In that case, someone poisoned the fruit, and she was unlucky enough to eat it. Or, someone poisoned the wine she drank, causing Ms. Yuri to faint."
Amuro Toru squatted beside Conan, with a teasing look in his eyes: "What do you think? Am I right, little detective?"
Conan looked embarrassed, with beads of sweat on his forehead, and his eyes dodged: "Why are you asking me? You should ask Uncle Kogoro."
Mao Lilan called the Metropolitan Police Department and said, "The name of this store is Kurotoshi-tei. Please come here immediately. I am really sorry to bother you."
After hanging up the phone, Mao Lilan searched her bag but couldn't find her wallet. She looked puzzled: "Strange, my wallet is gone?"
When Murakami Sana heard this, she came over quickly and asked, "Excuse me, what kind of wallet is this?"
Mao Lilan began to describe the wallet: "There is a ginkgo leaf pattern on the wallet. There is not much money in it, but there is the key to my house."
Murakami Sana searched for a while and said, "Could it be this? Take a look."
Kudo Yuki stood up and looked at the conversation between the bunny girl and Mouri Ran, a thoughtful gleam in her eyes.
Mao Lilan's face was full of joy of regaining something she had lost. "Yes, that's it. Thank you so much. Where did you find it?"
Murakami Sana turned her head and looked at Amuro Toru: "This wallet fell at the bathroom door. Look, it was the handsome black guy standing there who picked it up."
Mao Lilan quickly cast a grateful look at Amuro Toru, then opened her wallet and checked carefully to confirm that all the keys were there. She breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Fortunately, the keys are all there."
Kudo Yuki raised her eyebrows when she heard this, with doubt flashing in her eyes. She thought: [Zero did this on purpose again. First he acted abnormally, then he inquired about his brother's whereabouts, and then he copied the key. Could it be that as his father said, Zero was going to break into the Kudo family's house at night? Let's see what happens first.]
Murakami Sana turned around and crossed her arms over her chest with a gossipy look on her face, "What a pity. I was thinking that if this was Yuri's wallet, I could open it and take a look to find out where she and Mr. Morooka had their trysts."
Mao Lilan was full of doubts: Mr. Morooka had a tryst with Miss Yuri?"
Murakami Sana then said what she thought she had discovered, "I think those two must be having an affair. Mr. Morooka usually calls them so intimately, and he was so anxious just now."
Murakami Sana glanced at Mao Lilan again, with a little sympathy in her eyes: "Although I don't know what the relationship between you and Mr. Morooka is, I still advise you to be careful."
After saying that, she walked away in her high heels, twisting her waist, leaving Mao Lilan standing there with a confused look on her face.
Not long after, Officer Megure and others from the Metropolitan Police Department arrived at the crime scene, followed by Officer Takagi and a group of other police officers.
Maori Kogoro's face was full of concern: "Did the forensic examiner find arsenic in the wine that Miss Arisato drank?"
Officer Megure squatted down and examined it carefully, his expression solemn: "Yes."
Mao Lilan looked worried, and her hands unconsciously clenched: "How is Miss Yuri doing?"
Officer Takagi told the truth: "Ms. Yuri is currently receiving further treatment at the hospital, but she has not regained consciousness yet."
Officer Megure stood up and looked at everyone seriously: "So, does anyone among you know who wanted to harm Miss Yuri?"
The bunny girls around looked at each other, and shook their heads: "We don't know."
Morooka Gunzo explained in a panic: "Yes, it was me. Someone poisoned me and wanted to kill me, but Arisato drank my wine by mistake, so Arisato...she got into trouble."
Everyone focused their attention on Morooka Gunzo, and Officer Takagi looked puzzled: "What's going on?"
Morooka Gunzo took a deep breath and explained the reason: "I received a threatening letter saying they wanted to kill me." He handed the threatening letter to two police officers for inspection, and then said: "Yusato must have been innocently implicated."
Conan walked out of the crowd, his small figure seemed particularly determined, and he said seriously: "However, the cup used by Sister Yuri looks completely different from the cup you used, uncle. Sister Yuri used a long and thin champagne glass. And uncle, you used an ordinary wine glass. I think under normal circumstances, you can't make a mistake."
Officer Takagi murmured, "It seems that the murderer's target is Miss Yuri after all."
