Detective Conan: The System Takes Me to Zero's World
Chapter 162 The Evil Hidden in the Campus Drama Crew
Kudo Yuki came to Dr. Agasa's house and rang the doorbell. Dr. Agasa heard the doorbell and went to open the door.
As soon as the door opened and he saw it was Kudo Yuki, the doctor immediately greeted her warmly: "Xiaoxue, you're here! Come in!"
Kudo Yuki heard that the three members of the Junior Detective Team - Ayumi, Genta, Mitsuhiko and Huihara Ai - were playing games in the room of Dr. Agasa's house. She walked lightly, trying not to make any noise, for fear of disturbing them.
The doctor welcomed Kudo Yuki into the house and immediately made a cup of hot tea. Kudo Yuki held the teacup in both hands, feeling the warmth from it, and slowly walked to the window to sit down, admiring the rain outside the window.
And Rum's bad luck continued.
He sat in the taxi, feeling very upset.
However, fate did not seem to let him go. The taxi suddenly had a flat tire on the road, making a loud "bang" and the car body shook violently.
Rum couldn't help cursing, "Damn it! What a bad luck!" Helplessly, he had to get off the bus in the rain and change trains.
He finally waited for a taxi, but after changing to another one, there were still problems along the way, such as traffic jams and red lights, which made him even more irritated.
Two hours later, the bad luck spell wore off, and Rum returned to his own residence. His wig was wet and lying on the table, his clothes were wrinkled and stuck to his body, and he was filled with anger.
However, due to his memory being modified, he only remembered the unfavorable situation he was in when he met Kudo Yuki, and had no recollection of the series of misfortunes that followed.
Kudo Yuki called out telepathically, "Rat, come to Dr. Agasa's house."
After a while, Shushu appeared at the door. His fluffy fur was soaked and he looked very pitiful. But his eyes were still bright.
"Xiaoxue, you didn't see the two hours of bad luck that Rum had today. It was really interesting to watch."
It jumped onto the table and described vividly, "When Rum got off the car, he looked like a drowned rat, and his usual dignity was gone. He stood on the roadside to stop a car, looking anxious and helpless, which was really funny.
Also, after he got on the second bus, he kept complaining, and the driver was so scared that he couldn't even breathe. "Shushu became more and more excited, gesturing with his little paws in the air.
Kudo Yuki was amused by Shushu's description and laughed. She picked up Shushu and wiped its wet fur with a towel.
"Rat, thank you for sticking to Rum. But Rum is not that easy to defeat."
"Shu Shu understands, but seeing him so unlucky today, I feel relieved."
At this time, the morning rain outside had stopped.
Kudo Yuki and Dr. Agasa were standing in the living room when they heard a clear sneeze coming from inside the house. They looked at each other with concern in their eyes.
She walked quickly to the door of the room and gently opened it. "Who is sneezing?"
Huihara Ai held the game controller in her hand and said, "I don't have a cold."
Dr. Agasa walked into the room with cold medicine in hand and looked down at the date on the medicine box. "This medicine can't be taken anymore. The date on it has been expired for a long time. It's from Zijiu Pharmaceutical. This brand is really old."
"Baijiu Pharmaceutical?" Guangyan looked puzzled and scratched his head, "I haven't even heard of it."
"This company used to be very famous. Their medicines are very effective and cheap." Dr. Agasa stroked his chin as if thinking, "It used to be a very large company, but I don't know why it suddenly went bankrupt."
Huihara Ai gripped the game controller tightly, her voice slightly low, "That company went bankrupt 25 years ago because another larger group company wanted to acquire them, but it didn't go well.
Because that company is the pharmaceutical company where my father worked 30 years ago, and he was a member of the drug development team there. "
When Kudo Yuki heard this, she thought: "This is probably why Karasuma Group acquired Hakubato Pharmaceutical, because Miyano Atsushi is well-known in the scientific community as an expelled "mad scientist."
Thinking about this, she took out her mobile phone and skillfully drew the letter S on the screen. Noah's Ark appeared instantly. She typed in the command on the keyboard: 'Organize backup files'.
A few minutes later, the electronic document was sorted out, and Kudo Yuki opened the file. When she saw the contents, her face instantly darkened. However, she quickly adjusted her mood and regained her calm expression.
The always sensitive Haibara Ai seemed to have sensed something, perhaps it was the vague aura of the winery organization that made her body shudder.
Kudo Yuki immediately noticed something wrong with Haibara Ai and hurried to comfort her, "It's okay, Ai, you may just have caught a cold. We just need to be careful." As she spoke, she walked to Haibara Ai and gently patted her shoulder.
Yuanta also came over at this time, "Haiya, are you really okay? Do you want to drink some hot water and rest?"
Ayumi ran to the window and opened it a little to let in some fresh air: "Will this make you feel better?"
Dr. Agasa smiled and waved his hand: "Okay, okay, don't worry too much, Ai should be fine. Let's not stay in the room all the time, let's go out and get some fresh air."
So, everyone walked out of the room, and the relaxed and happy atmosphere in the living room returned, as if the previous incident had never happened.
Conan sent a text message:
Sister, there is a crew filming a TV show on the campus of an abandoned school, and a murder case suddenly occurred. Masumi Sera tried to find out if I took the medicine to become smaller. Help!
Kudo Xue held her forehead helplessly and replied:
During the last school trip, she was suspicious and waited for me to come over.
After sending the text message, Kudo Yuki walked to where Haibara Ai was and motioned her to go to a quiet corner. The big and small came to the corner, and Kudo Yuki squatted down, "Ai, Conan just sent me a message saying that Sera Masumi is testing whether he has taken that kind of medicine. I'm afraid she will come to you for the antidote."
Huihara Ai analyzed calmly, "However, she probably doesn't have solid evidence, otherwise she wouldn't just be testing the waters."
Kudo Yuki stood up and rubbed Huihara Ai's head, "Conan asked me to help. Ai, I told you this news today just so that you can be mentally prepared.
Remember what I showed you before about the relationship between Akai Mari and your mother? Sera Masumi is Akai Mari's youngest daughter. In terms of seniority, she is your cousin."
Huiyuan Ai's expression remained calm, but there was a hint of complexity in her eyes: "So what if she is my cousin? In such a complicated situation, how much weight can family affection have?"
"Ai, I know you've been through a lot and you don't dare to trust others easily. But maybe Sera Masumi is not as bad as we thought."
"Humph, in this world full of dangers and conspiracies, I won't trust anyone easily, even if she is related by blood."
"No matter what, you must be careful. I have to find Conan first." After saying that, he turned around and prepared to leave.
Huiyuan Ai suddenly called her: "Wait, Sister Xue, if I really meet her, what should I do?"
Kudo Yuki stopped and said, "Try to stay calm and see what she says. If she really mentions the antidote, I will ask Okiya Subaru to help."
"I understand."
Kudo Yuki smiled at her and turned away.
Huibara looked at her departing back and fell into deep thought.
When Kudo Yuki found Conan, he heard Sera Masumi asking Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko: "By the way, are there any other people? They are very young, but inexplicably very mature children."
Mao Lilan pretended to think about it, but Suzuki Sonoko said it directly: "Haihara Ai. She usually lives in Dr. Agasa's house. She is indeed a cool kid with very mature behavior."
Kudo Yuki walked quickly to Conan, "Conan, what happened?"
Conan broke free from Officer Takagi's arms, and Kudo Yuki squatted down, "Sister, you're finally here. It's not convenient for me to explain the reasoning process now, so I have to trouble you! Sera Masumi is here, so I can't use the anesthetic needle."
"I understand. Then tell me the key clues of the case secretly."
Conan glanced around and after making sure that Sera Masumi wasn't paying attention, he lowered his voice and briefly described some details.
As Kudo Yuki listened, her mind raced, and she soon came up with an idea. She stood up and said, "Don't worry, just look at me."
Conan breathed a sigh of relief, then stepped aside and continued to observe the situation at the scene.
When Sera Masumi heard Sonoko say Haibara Ai's name, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, and she thought to herself: "Haibara Ai...it seems I have to find an opportunity to get to know this child properly."
Kudo Yuki walked up to Officer Takagi and asked, "What's going on?"
"Ms. Kudo, it's a good thing that you are here to help solve the case. There are some clues that we haven't figured out." Officer Megure and Officer Takagi explained the whole case in detail.
It turned out that Conan, Xiaolan, Sonoko, Kyogoku Makoto, Sera and others encountered a "hostage-taking" incident on their way back from watching a movie.
Kyogoku Makoto rushed over and knocked the "robber" unconscious through his helmet. He didn't expect that this was actually a film crew filming, and Kyogoku Makoto was just a substitute actor.
The filming took place on the campus of the abandoned school and in the classroom on the fourth floor. The crew included director Shigematsu Tomioka, assistant director Daisaku Otori, actors Ayaya Tokuzono, Nanako Kamimei, makeup artist Eika Yui, and assistant director Yota Ueki.
Kyogoku Makoto began practicing the detective role and action scenes. After the break, everyone set up cameras on campus to film the scene where Tokuzono Aya falls from the fourth floor.
Tokuzono Aya suddenly fell down with a scream, and Kyogoku Makoto appeared from the fourth-floor window.
When the police arrived at the scene, Kyogoku Makoto was the only one on the fourth floor where the crime occurred.
After some investigation, everyone in the crew except the protagonists is suspected of committing the crime. However, the assistant director Odori Daisaku secretly sent a message to someone, and seemed to be planning something.
Afterwards, Tokuzono Ayaya's smartphone was found in an inconspicuous place, and the police began to investigate the incident. But not long after, assistant director Odori Daisaku died while drinking a milkshake.
After listening to the whole story of the case, Kudo Yuki began to observe the crime scene and the evidence collected by the police.
Conan tugged at his sister's clothes, "Sister Xue, in the video of Uncle Tokuen falling from the building, the deputy director Otori was photographed holding a cell phone."
Officer Megure ordered: "Then go check it again."
Officer Takagi turned on the video, and Kudo Yuki, Conan, and Officer Megure watched the screen together. After Tokuzono Aya fell from the building, Conan pointed to the lower right corner of the screen and said, "Assistant Director Otori is holding a cell phone."
"Wait a minute." Officer Takagi took out a pen from his pocket and wrote on the notebook, but unfortunately the pen was out of ink. "Strange, the pen cap fell off and the pen can't write anymore."
Kudo Yuki narrowed her eyes into half-moon shapes and looked at Yui Eika. When Conan noticed this, he instantly understood.
Kudo Yuki pointed at Officer Takagi's pen and said, "Think about it now, it's the pen cap!"
Conan nodded in agreement.
Kudo Yuki looked at everyone with a serious expression, "This is a serial murder case."
"What's going on?" Tomioka Shigematsu looked confused.
Kudo Yuki explained what happened to everyone, "First, let's talk about the death of actor Tokuzono. The classroom where the accident happened was the filming location for the fighting scene, and everyone gathered there. During the break, everyone on the fourth floor went downstairs.
In order to shoot the stunt scene, Kyogoku returned to the fourth floor. Assistant director Mr. Weki was still downstairs at the time, while Mr. Tokuzono went up to the fourth floor first. Because his cell phone was missing, he used another cell phone to call the cell phone.
There was no scratch on the phone outside the window, which means that the phone was not dropped accidentally, but was placed there by the murderer to lure Mr. Deyuan to the window. "
Kudo Yuki paused and continued, "The police initially thought that if they turned up the ring volume of a specific number, they might be able to scare Mr. Tokuen, but doing so would leave a call record.
No one heard the loud ringing sound at that time. The only sound was what Kyogoku Makoto heard on the fourth floor at the time, which was a sound similar to the flapping of wings, and the sound was very small.
Officer Takagi suddenly realized, "It's the butterfly toy, right?"
Kudo Yuki nodded and said, "That's right. The trick toy in Mr. Otori's belongings flew out at that moment. The reason there are no scratches on the phone is because he carefully placed the phone on the butterfly with his hand and pressed the butterfly down."
Sera Masumi went on to explain, "And Mr. Tokuzono really hates bugs."
Kudo Yuki's expression was solemn. "But what the murderer didn't expect was that Mr. Tokuen let go of the phone immediately, so the phone was not hit."
Officer Megure frowned, "Who set up all this?"
Masumi Sera interrupted and said, "The butterfly flew into the classroom from the fourth-floor window and was secretly picked up and taken away by Mr. Otori who entered the classroom. From this, Mr. Otori saw through the murderer's method of committing the crime."
Conan put his hands in his pockets, "Mr. Otori originally intended to use this evidence to threaten the murderer, but it brought disaster upon himself instead."
Tomioka Shigematsu guessed, "That means the prank had nothing to do with Otori, and he didn't commit suicide because of it."
Kudo Yuki looked at everyone calmly, "When watching the video of Mr. Tokuzono falling from the building, Mr. Otori laughed. At that time, Mr. Otori laughed because he saw someone in the video. He knew who the murderer was through a certain picture."
Kudo Yuki turned the video to everyone and slowed down the playback speed. "Everyone, look carefully. Someone has already fallen from the building, but someone's behavior is very strange! There is someone who didn't even look at Mr. Tokuzono who fell from the building. Instead, he kept looking up at the makeup artist Ms. Yui Eika on the fourth floor."
