Detective Baima kept squatting all the time, lowered his head and inspected Yamamoto Yuan's body thoughtfully, "Call the police first."

Knowing the seriousness of the situation, Mori Kogoro looked at everyone with a serious face, and shouted, "Xiao Lan, you go to the police first, and no one else is allowed to leave this room."

Hearing Kogoro Mori's order, Xiaolan hurried out to make a phone call, and soon came back to hold the door frame with her hands, her face was flushed with a lot of sweat from running, and said pantingly, " Dad, Police Officer Meguro said he'd have two or three hours to get there."

Mori Kogoro rubbed his chin in thought for a while, and suddenly he shouted, "One of you three must be the murderer! So no one can leave now."

The three people who were frightened by this scene looked at everything in the room with horror, and finally broke into sobs.

"Master...Master...why would he..." Ryoko Yamamoto looked at the corpse in disbelief, trembling all over.

Keiko Yamamoto frowned slightly, and glanced displeasedly, then her body seemed to lose gravity, she leaned softly against the wall, her hands hugged her chest, her head turned to the other side, "It's really bad luck." She squeezed it tightly, revealing her nervousness.

Nanako Kato seemed to have not come out of the shadows, she sat on the ground and stared at the deceased in a daze, until Xiaolan and Heye helped her up, and then said hoarsely, "Thank you... thank you..."

Conan observed the three people. What his uncle said was correct. According to the situation just now, the room was sealed off, and the only window was also locked. It was impossible to come in and commit crimes. Conan frowned, lowered his head and Went to the corpse and smelled it. Could it be the smell?Conan looked at the corpse in surprise.

"It's potassium cyanate, right?" A deep voice came from the side, and Conan instinctively looked to the side, while Detective Baima was lowering his head, observing carefully.

As if aware of Conan's gaze, Baima turned his face sideways, looked at Conan who was stunned aside, and said with a smile, "The deceased's mouth smelled of almonds. If you look at the color of his body, it is confirmed that he should die." It took about 30 minutes or so."

Conan withdrew his gaze, turned to the deceased, and carefully observed that the cause of death was indeed poisoned by potassium cyanate. Now there are several doubts that have not been clarified. How did the first murderer poison?

While he was thinking, Hakuba got up and walked out, just passing by Hattori Heiji.

"Hey, Kudo, who do you think is more likely to be the murderer?" Hattori asked in a deep voice, watching the back of the white horse leaning up and leaving. He always felt that Tan was very strange today.

With his hands in his pockets, Conan turned his gaze to the three women and said, "It's not certain yet, but the murderer must be among the three of them!"

Two hours later, Police Officer Megure led a large group of people in. Seeing Police Officer Megure who was in the lead, Mori Kogoro approached with a smile, "Officer Megure, I didn't let anyone touch the dead body."

"I said, why is it you again? Why can I see you everywhere?" Officer Mu Mu laughed dryly, and turned his head in disgust, what a plague god!

Mori Kogoro scratched his head in embarrassment, "Isn't this a coincidence, I'm here by appointment."

Officer Takagi ran to the side of the two, whispered a few words to Mu Mu, and walked towards the crime scene without looking at him.

"The deceased, named Yuan Yamamoto, was 57 years old this year and was the owner of this villa. The cause of death was identified as potassium cyanate. The time of death was about 30 minutes."

Takagi read the notes in his hand and made a serious report. Officer Megure touched his chin, "Do those women have alibi?"

"Except for Ryoko Yamamoto, everyone else has an alibi."

"Ryoko Yamamoto?"

"Yes, officer! She once delivered snacks and teapots to the deceased, and the other two were with everyone in the hall."

"That is to say, she is the most suspected of committing the crime."

Hattori rested his arms on his pillow and looked sideways at Conan, "Indeed, 30 minutes ago was the time for Ryoko Yamamoto to deliver something to Gen Yamamoto, so she is indeed suspected of committing the crime." After a pause, he withdrew his hand and ran to Next to the dead man's stool, he said again, "Hey, Kudo, what do you think this is?"

Conan followed and ran over, covered his hands with a transparent plastic bag, gently picked up the handkerchief on the ground and looked at it, "This is..." Suddenly he turned his head to look at Hattori in a flash of inspiration, Hattori Heiji smiled and shouted Said, "Officer Mumu, please identify whether this is poisonous or not."

After Hattori left, Conan lightly jumped onto the table. Judging from his death, he should have held the handkerchief when he was poisoned. His body was in pain and he wanted to open the door for help, but he didn’t take a few steps before he died. died.

His eyes turned to the snacks on the table. There are three layers of snack boxes, and the food on each layer is different. The food on the first layer was obviously eaten, and the second layer only took a bite, and...

Conan pursed his lips and looked at the food. Just as he was contemplating, a shout made him have to follow the sound.

"I didn't, I really didn't." Ryoko Yamamoto sat on the sofa out of control, covered her eyes with her hands, and cried loudly. Nanako Kato comforted her gently, "Officer, we really didn't kill people, and Ryoko is even more impossible. .”

"Now only Ms. Ryoko had contact with the victim 30 minutes ago,"

"But! You can't conclude that I'm a murderer just because of this!" Angry and sad, she closed her lips tightly, and tears fell on her hands like broken beads. She loves Yamamoto so much, how could she kill him? .

"Hmph, it's either you or her. One of you must be the murderer." Keiko Yamamoto snorted coldly, her eyes full of hatred.

"You!" Nanako Kato pointed at Keiko Yamamoto with trembling hands, her chest heaving rapidly in anger, this... this evil obstacle!

Takagi looked awkwardly at these women who were confronting each other, at a loss, should he ask or not?

"Officer Takagi, so you are here?"

"Hey? You are? White Horse Detective?"

Takagi looked at the noble boy with an elegant smile facing him in surprise, scratching his head, why is he here?

"I just asked Ms. Liangzi why she prepared three layers of dim sum. She said that this is the habit of Yamamoto Yuan. Every time Yamamoto eats a layer of dim sum, he has to wipe his lips with a fixed handkerchief and drink a cup of tea. Then the next layer will be eaten."

"Huh? The deceased's habits are quite special." Officer Takagi thought for a long time, then smiled and said to him, "I'll report to Officer Megure first."

"Then I'll trouble you." After speaking, Tan Baima glanced at the oblique direction from the corner of his eye, smiled meaningfully, turned around and left with Takagi.

After hearing the conversation, Conan thought to himself, is this a special habit?

"Kudou, just checked, that handkerchief has no toxin reaction, even the teacup and teapot have no toxin reaction." Speaking of this, Hattori frowned, which is strange. If you can't find the murder weapon, you can't identify the murderer!

"Yeah, but I always feel like we're missing something."

If my reasoning is correct, the murder weapon that caused Yamamoto to be poisoned and died was the handkerchief. Although the teacup showed signs of being drunk, it was obvious that the deceased had drunk tea before eating snacks. Potassium cyanate was a A fast and deadly gun, it is impossible for him to have a chance to eat food, if anyone has touched this handkerchief.

"Kudou, although the handkerchief has no toxin reaction, but... all three of them have touched this handkerchief before. Could it be..." Hattori Heiji hammered his palm and looked at Conan with a smile.

Hattori and Conan looked at each other and smiled.

"I know who the murderer is."

"I know who the murderer is!"

Conan and Hattori hooked their lips together, exuding confidence from the inside out, and turned their heads to lock on the murderer tightly.

In a slightly dark corner, a slender figure stood there quietly, leaning against the wall, his eyes following the small figure, with an emotion called longing imprinted on his face, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, his smile was very warm , the eyes are also full of tenderness, like a ray of sunshine after the rain, clear and bright...

"Detective, it seems that you already know who the murderer is."

Mao Lilan looked around in the hall, her eyes were stained with worry, and she ran away again.

"Hey? Dad, have you seen Conan?"

"No, no, I was with that Osaka brat just now." Mori Kogoro said perfunctorily, then turned and ran to Police Officer Megure, "Officer Megure, I know who the murderer is."

Police officer Mumu glanced at him in surprise, and asked suspiciously, "You know?" But he didn't sleep today?

Although Conan and Heiji here knew her murder method, they couldn't solve the case without knowing her murder motive, and their faces were stained with frost.

"Then, Kudo, let's search separately, you go over there, I'll look here." Hattori Heiji pointed to the corridors on both sides.

"Okay." Looking at Hattori's back, Conan also walked in the opposite direction. Just as he was about to leave, his arm was grabbed and pulled hard, which startled him and yelled.

"what-!"

"I said, Conan, don't run around in the future, okay? I've been looking for you very hard." Mao Lilan put her hands on her waist, staring at Conan with a serious face.

"No... I'm sorry, sister Xiaolan."

"Okay, let's go back and don't hinder the police from handling the case."

Conan replied helplessly, and sighed, "Yes, sister Xiaolan."

"Excuse me, can Ms. Lan give Conan to me?" Tan Baima who appeared at an unknown time took Conan's other hand and asked softly.

"Huh? Bai... Baima?" He looked at Tan Baima in astonishment, thought for a moment, and said worriedly, "But won't this kid cause you trouble? I remember that Mr. Baima is also a famous detective."

"Don't worry about this, it won't happen, then I will take Conan away, beautiful lady." After a gentleman's salute, he pulled Conan and walked forward.

Mao Lilan who was left there, with red cheeks, looked at their walking away figures, sighed slightly, and then walked towards the hall alone.

Conan was silently dragged away by Baima Tan, raised his head, and looked at his side face. There was always a smile on his face, and he and Baima Tan had never been in contact with each other except for that evening in the other building. What is he pulling himself to do?

Quickly searched for the memories related to the white horse in my mind, contacted, if there was another contact, it was at that time to solve the code, his appearance was only pretended by Kidd.

Wait... Pretend?Could it be that... Conan's pupils shrank sharply, and he looked up at Tan Baima in surprise.

When he arrived at a room, Detective Baima let go of Conan, and turned on the light with a "snap". It was the room full of photos that he accidentally broke into that time.

The white horse leaned over to the window, opened the curtains, turned around, and looked at Conan with a smile.

Conan narrowed his eyes, with a smug smile on the corner of his mouth, he gently put his hands behind his back, put them on the watch, and said affirmatively.

"You are Phantom Thief Kid."
