Detective Conan: The System Takes Me to Zero's World

Conan took the opportunity to remind: "Officer Megure, think about it carefully. We were in the kitchen at that time. Even if we knew the layout of the kitchen, it would be useless. For example, I don't want to go into such a dangerous place."

Officer Takagi nodded: "That makes sense."

Officer Chiba had a new confusion: "But if the murderer is not Mr. Hatsune, then the murderer put the poison directly on Mr. Hanasaki's cake under his nose?"

"That's the point." Sera Masumi came to the table, put one hand on the table, and leaned forward slightly: "The murderer did not poison Mr. Hanasaki's cake, but poisoned his own cake."

Everyone's eyes were blank.

At this time, Suzuki Sonoko came in with a cake box in her hand. She put the cake on the table and said, "Sister Xue, I bought the two strawberry cakes you asked for."

Conan took two plates and placed them on the table, then stood by and continued to observe.

Kudo Yuki instructed Suzuki Sonoko: "Then please help me put the cake horizontally on the table."

"Well, no problem." Suzuki Sonoko took out the cake and placed it aside.

Sera Masumi moved two chairs over and watched with Conan. Conan narrowed his eyes slightly and began to reason in his mind.

Kudo Yuki began to simulate the scene, "Now suppose that Sonoko is the victim and I am the murderer. When the murderer opened the seat next to him, he took advantage of Mr. Hanasaki's inattention and did this."

Her hand gently stroked across Suzuki Sonoko's strawberry cake, her movements so subtle that the strawberries on the cake only moved slightly.

Only then did Officers Takagi and Megure understand.

"This will distort the strawberries on the cake next to it."

Suzuki Sonoko spoke up: "So Mr. Hanasaki, did you switch your cake with the murderer's cake?"

Officer Chiba scratched his head in confusion: "If he minds, can he just ask the clerk for a new cake?"

Masumi Sera answered: "It is normal to do so, but Mr. Hanasaki can't say it. Not long ago, when he threw a fork at the clerk, he hit other customers and issued an apology statement for it.

So he was afraid of being criticized by others this time. It was just that the strawberry on the cake was crooked, but he was still trying to find fault with it, right? "

Kudo Yuki stood up and stared at Kushiyama Ken, "Mr. Kushiyama Ken, the agent of Ms. Reimi, who did not eat the cake at that time, but got up from his seat to answer the phone. You said you did not touch the cake, but the strawberries on your cake were crooked. This is the evidence."

Everyone's eyes quickly shifted to Kushiyama Ken. His eyes flickered and he explained in a panic, "Someone really did call me at that time, right? My phone really kept ringing at that time."

Sera Masumi said coldly: "You must have called the test number! The call will automatically come back in a few seconds. You just need to turn the volume down to the minimum so that others can't hear the voice content, so it won't be easily exposed.

So you need to grasp the opportunity and call this number, so that before the victim eats the cake, he or she will receive an automatic call back, and then you can leave to answer the phone. Of course, you have already poisoned your cake in advance. "

"But, but, where is the marker? You just saw that the marker in my hand couldn't write because the cap was not put on properly. So, how did I write on his forehead?"

Kudo Yuki turned her head and looked at Mao Lilan: "Xiaolan, did you buy it for me?"

"Well, Sister Xue, you asked for the marker and the nail polish remover. I took the cap off the marker as you asked. Now the pen can't write anymore."

Xiaolan walked over quickly and handed the thing to Kudo Yuki.

"Thank you for your hard work." She took the pen, opened the cap, and explained, "The reason why the oil-based marker pen can't write is because the ink dries up after the pen tip comes into contact with the air and solidifies on the surface of the pen tip."

"Like this." Wearing transparent gloves, she drew something on it without leaving any marks, and demonstrated as she spoke: "Pour nail polish remover into the cap of the marker, then insert the marker that cannot write into the cap, and wait for a while.

Nail polish remover contains a substance called acetone, which can dissolve the ink that has solidified on the pen tip, so that the pen can write again."

Officer Takagi hesitated for a moment: "So, the black stain on the floor is..."

"Yes, the murderer poured the nail polish remover from the pen cap onto the ground because after committing the crime, he needed to remove the pen cap again so that the marker could not write."

Sera Masumi stared at Kushiyama Denko without blinking, pressing on step by step: "In other words, you had already anticipated that someone would ask Miss Reimi for an autograph at the birthday party, and you deliberately gave her a marker that couldn't write, letting everyone know that the marker you took couldn't write.

After Mr. Hanasaki fell down from the poison, you took the opportunity to unplug the projector, plunging the store into darkness.

Then, with the help of the glowing glasses, he used a marker that could rewrite words to write on Mr. Hanasaki's forehead, and that was the truth behind the murder.

You told him that wearing glowing glasses can make Miss Li Mei happy. And since you are his agent, you can arrange your seat next to him. "

Kudo Yuki glanced at him and added, "Also, the marker in the kitchen trash can was actually thrown in before the birthday party started when you went to get water for Conan.

You can easily get access to the kitchen by making up the excuse that some last-minute guests have food allergies.”

Sera Masumi stroked his chin and analyzed: "What I am going to say next is my personal guess. You should have expected that if Miss Reimi couldn't use the pen when signing, she would get a spare pen from her sister, so you designed this crime plan.

The pen is in Miss Li Mei's hand, so she will inevitably be suspected by the police. At this time, you should be ready to protect Miss Li Mei with all your might. When the marker in the kitchen trash can is discovered by the police, Miss Li Mei can be cleared of suspicion.

Unfortunately, Miss Li Mei returned the marker to You Mei, and this change made your wish come to nothing."

Zhishanren gritted his teeth and lowered his head without saying a word, his face full of unwillingness and despair.

Guan Ze Limei was puzzled: "But why did Mr. Kushiyama do this?"

Sera Masumi raised an eyebrow: "Because he hopes that Miss Reimi, you can have a good impression of him. I think the juice and cakes that disappeared from your dressing room were also taken away by him.

This happened to be seen by Mr. Hanasaki, the makeup artist, and he used it to threaten you. I guess he also took the opportunity to blackmail you."

"Yeah." Kushiyama Ken's right hand tightly grasped the top middle of the chair, his knuckles turning white from the force. "The amount he demands is getting bigger and bigger, I can't bear it anymore, so I can only plan to kill him."

As soon as he finished speaking, his eyes suddenly turned red, and he raised the chair with both hands and threw it at Sera Masumi: "Get out of the way."

Sera Masumi squatted down and hugged Conan, pretending to protect him, and gently stroked Conan's head with one hand, trying to reassure him.

The other hand that was wrapped around Conan's neck slowly reached into his pocket, "Conan, be careful!"

Mao Lilan reacted quickly and kicked the chair away, flipping it in the air and smashing it to the side. She then raised her leg and kicked Kushiyama Shin on the top of his head.

Sera Masumi took the opportunity to take Conan's medicine box and put it in his pocket, "Conan, are you okay?"

"Yeah." Conan responded absentmindedly, still not recovering from the thrill of the moment.

Sera Masumi smiled brightly, showing her little canine teeth: "That's great."

When Officers Takagi and Chiba saw Kushiyama covering his head and groaning in pain, they stepped forward and handcuffed him.

Officer Takagi took Kushiyama to identify himself.

Officer Chiba said sternly: "Behave yourself and follow us back to the police station."

The two men escorted him away from the scene.

Masumi Sera stood up with one hand on his waist and said, "Case solved! I have something else to do, so I'll leave first." Then he turned and left.

Conan finally reacted and thought: "No, no way, that Sera guy..."

He subconsciously touched his pocket, but the small medicine box was nowhere to be found, and his face instantly turned ugly.

Kudo Yuki came forward and whispered in his ear: "Did you listen to what Ai said?"

Masumi Sera was walking on the busy street, with people coming and going around her. She stopped, hid in a relatively quiet corner, took out Conan's medicine box, and talked to Mary Akai.

"Well, I did as you said and got the stuff. The medicine inside might be able to restore your body to its original state."

"Well done."

The mother and daughter chatted briefly for a few more sentences and then hung up the phone.

Sera Masumi opened the medicine box to check. The moment she opened it, she was stunned: "Why is the capsule not inside? What, what happened?"

On the other side, Conan proudly took out the antidote for APTX4869 and held it in his hand, whispering in Kudo Yuki's ear: "Sister, luckily I took the antidote for APTX4869 out of the medicine box in advance."

Kudo Yuki silently said in her heart: [Sign in.]

"Ding, congratulations to Xiaoxue for signing in successfully today and getting +200 mall points and a medicine storage box.

The current mall points are 2700, and the system space contains: healing elixir, anti-risk floating tools, water-resting stone, winery organization status information, winery base location distribution map, and medicine storage box. Please continue to sign in every day, Xiaoxue."

Kudo Yuki communicated telepathically: "Rat, put the medicine storage box in my pocket."

"Ding, the medicine storage box has been put into the pocket."

Then, Kudo Yuki took out the medicine box from her pocket and handed it to Conan, with a serious expression: "From now on, put this medicine in this small box alone."

Conan took it and looked at it in his hand, whispering: "Sister, this box looks very special."

Kudo Yuki tapped Conan's head gently: "Don't underestimate it. With this, the efficacy of the antidote can be better preserved."

Conan nodded, put the antidote for APTX4869 inside, then turned around and followed Mao Lilan away. As he walked, he turned back and waved goodbye to her.

Kudo Yuki decided to return to the secret weapons base to visit Morobushi Kagemitsu, but when she arrived at her destination, she was going to suffer.

When they arrived at the Poirot Café, Azusa Enomoto was just about to get off work. She saw Kudo Yuki and a smile appeared on her face: "Boss, you're finally back. Someone is waiting for you in the private room. I'll leave first." After that, she hurriedly left the café.

Kudo Yuki frowned slightly, wondering in her heart: [Who could be waiting for me in the private room?]

When he pushed open the door of the secret room, he saw that Toru Amuro's handsome face was full of seriousness and worry. His brows were slightly furrowed, and his deep eyes were fixed on Kudo Yuki, with a bit of reproach in his eyes.

He walked quickly to her and held Kudo Yuki's shoulders with both hands. The force was not strong, but one could feel his inner urgency. His voice was filled with a hint of suppressed anger: "Didn't I warn you? Why didn't you listen?"

Then, his expression eased a little, and the anger that had been burning in his eyes gradually died down, replaced by deep helplessness and heartache.

Amuro Toru gently embraced Kudo Yuki in his arms, lowered his head slightly, and his warm breath blew against her ears. He whispered in a helpless but unquestionable tone: "Xiaoxue, since you are taking risks again, you must accept the punishment according to the previous agreement!"

His hand accidentally touched Kudo Yuki's sensitive spot. Kudo Yuki rubbed against Amuro Toru's arms and muttered softly: "Zero, what are you doing?"

There was a hint of coquettishness in her voice, and her cheeks were lightly flushed.

Amuro Toru tightened his arms slightly, hugged her tighter, sighed softly and said: "The punishment this time is...you will know it later."

Kudo Yuki raised her head and met his slightly teasing gaze, her face blank. Her mouth pouted slightly, "What on earth is that?"

Amuro Toru smiled and did not answer. He just took her hand and led her forward.

Toru Amuro opened the mechanism skillfully, and the door slowly opened. He held Kudo Yuki's hand tightly and walked along the passage.

Arriving at the secret weapons base, Zhu Fujingguang had just hung up the phone when he saw the two holding hands. He looked at them with his gentle eyes, "Are you two here to show off your love?"

Kudo Yuki's face flushed instantly, and she tried to break free from Amuro Toru's hand, "Hiro, don't talk nonsense."

However, Amuro Toru held it tighter, and whispered to Zhu Fu Jingguang with a smile: "The main reason I came here this time is that Xiaoxue didn't take my words to heart, and I want to teach her a lesson."

Zhu Fu Jingguang raised his eyebrows, with a bit of curiosity: "Oh? Then how are you going to teach her a lesson?"

Amuro Toru raised the corner of his mouth and revealed a sly smile: "This is a secret, but it will definitely make her remember it."

Kudo Yuki glared at Amuro Toru. "Humph, let me see what tricks you can come up with."
