"Murder? How is it possible?!"

"This sister is right, this is indeed murder."

"Why are you here to join in the fun?!"

Sakurako ignored the noise between Maoli and Conan, just put Ranpo on her shoulders and squatted down next to the corpse, carefully recalling Ranpo's explanation.

"Look."

Conan came over excitedly.

"The deceased was about 5 years old, married, married for more than 10 years, not happily married, and had multiple lovers."

Xiaolan bent down curiously, imitating Conan's movements to observe carefully on the corpse, "How did Kasuga-san deduce this?"

"It's simple."

Yingzi's voice overlapped with the random voice of memories, "The deceased's ring was worn on the left ring finger. It was old and had dust in the texture. The deceased wore earrings, necklaces, chains, and rings. Except for the wedding ring Furthermore, all the jewelry was clean, proving that jewelry is often cared for by the deceased, while wedding rings are not.”

Xiaolan nodded thoughtfully, "The deceased didn't care about the wedding ring, so her marriage is not happy?"

"Yes."

"But..." Officer Mu Mu stared at the ring on the ring finger of the deceased in a strange way, and then looked back and forth at the corpse, "How do you know that the deceased had multiple lovers?"

Yingzi borrowed a set from the police officer on the side to put it on, gently raised the palm of the deceased and took off her ring, showing it in front of everyone.

"The outside of the ring is old and dull, while the inside is smooth and clean..."

"It means that she often takes off the ring."

Conan took half of Sakurako's words and pointed to the manicure on the dead man's nails.

"Judging from her manicure and clothes, she is not engaged in the cleaning industry, so she took off the ring just to hide her married status. If she has maintained such a relationship with the same person for such a long time, she will definitely be accused by the other party. So she has maintained short-lived relationships with multiple lovers."

"Huh?" Sakurako was a little surprised by Conan's reasoning.

What Conan said is actually the same as Ranpo's reasoning. Even for a detective, this kind of question is too remote and esoteric for elementary school students.

"Conan actually reasoned it out, it's amazing."

Conan's body froze suddenly, and a panicked look flashed across his brows, "Ahahaha, Brother Shinichi taught me this."

"Shinichi? Is it Kudo Shinichi?"

"Hmm, um! Yes! Actually, I often hear brother Shinichi mention you, sister!"

Sakurako was taken aback, "Me? But I don't have much contact with Kudo-san..."

"..."

Hearing Conan's words, Xiaolan also recalled seriously.

"Although Kasuga-san is very popular in the class, but with Shinichi... it seems that he didn't say a few words."

"..."

played.

Conan smiled embarrassingly, just as he was thinking of a way to change the subject, the sound of chaotic steps suddenly rang in Yingzi's ear.

"It's over soon! This detective is going to eat ice cream!"

Luanbu has been clamoring to try the ice cream in Tokyo since the morning, but... Sakurako glanced slightly at Luanbu on her shoulder.

How do you eat ice cream like this?

Being watched by everyone, Yingzi naturally couldn't respond, she just patted Ranbu's hairy head to show comfort.

"If I'm not mistaken, the murderer should be in Osaka now."

"Osaka?"

"That's right, the deceased's stomach medicine was taken once in the morning and evening, and the poisoning time of arsenic/cream is usually about 10 minutes to two hours, so the arsenic/cream must be mixed with the medicine that the deceased took after lunch. .In order to prevent the deceased from being unable to take the poison, the murderer replaced each capsule with arsenic/cream. If he was going out to work, the deceased must not have only brought one bottle of medicine, and the other bottle of medicine should be put away. In the chest which the dead man carried with him."

"The box?" Police Officer Meguro looked around, "But no box was found at the scene."

"She should be in the luggage storage on the first floor."

"But how can you be sure that the deceased must have brought a box?"

"What a bunch of idiots!"

"What a bunch of idiots...ah no."

Yingzi almost repeated Ranbu's impatient complaints, she shook her head and stuffed Ranbu into her arms to force him to be quiet.

"Wearing such a bright and conspicuous outfit, the deceased should be working in the entertainment media, and her makeup is very delicate. Such a person will definitely wear a change of clothes when he is on a business trip."

"That alone doesn't mean she must have brought a suitcase?"

"Hmm... this alone may be a bit of a stretch." Yingzi took it out of her pocket and searched the webpage, "The deceased came from another place, her clothes were still a little damp, and the bottom of the collar was also wet, but she The umbrella she carried with her was dry. This proves that the deceased came from a place where it was both windy and rainy. She must have come from within two to an hour's drive of here."

Sakura held up the screen to show the weather forecasts of various cities in front of everyone, "Osaka is the only place that is two hours away from here with strong wind and rain."

"There were mud spots unevenly distributed on the deceased's right leg, but not on the left leg. This is what happens when a suitcase is dragged on the ground. Judging from the location of the mud spots, it should be a small suitcase that is easy to carry. "

"The deceased took the medicine in the morning but did not show any symptoms, so it proves that the murderer replaced the stomach medicine before the deceased left Osaka, so the murderer was a close person who lived with the deceased."

"If Ran... If my reasoning is correct, then the murderer should be the husband who lived with the deceased in Osaka."

"As for the box, you can find it at the bag depository on the first floor."

"And move, I'm afraid her husband is dissatisfied when he finds out about her cheating."

Everyone present was stunned for a few seconds, until the voice of police officer Megure sending someone to contact the Osaka police sounded, and they sighed a few words as if they had just woken up from a dream.

"awesome!"

Xiaolan was the first to express her admiration and admiration, "I didn't expect Kasuga-san to be such a good detective! I never knew this side of Kasuga-san before."

Sakura scratched her head in embarrassment.

In fact, this has nothing to do with her at all, the feeling of being praised for taking other people's credit for nothing makes Yingzi very uncomfortable.

"This, this is actually all thanks to my teacher."

"teacher?"

"That's right, this was taught to me by my teacher, Mr. Edogawa Ranpo!"

"Is Kasuga-san's teacher also a detective?"

"Well, he is a well-known detective in Yokohama."

"It's the No.1 detective in the world——!"

No, she couldn't say such words anyway.

Yingzi was selectively deaf, ignoring the sound of random steps, and concentrated on talking with Xiaolan.

"If Shinichi knew that Kasuga-san is such a powerful detective, he would probably want to be friends with you, so he wouldn't say that..."

"In that case? What kind of words?"

Sakura tilted her head, a little confused.

She really cares about what other people think of her.

Xiaolan smiled apologetically, and raised her head to meet Yingzi's gaze.

"It's just... Shinichi said before that although Kasuga-san is very popular, kind, and never refuses other people's requests, in fact he is a difficult person to get close to. I'm sorry Kasuga-san, Shinichi didn't Malicious, just..."

"It's nothing."

Yingzi seemed to be smiling indifferently, but the light in her eyes dimmed for a moment.

"What Kudo-san said is actually..."

"Idiot! The big detective's stomach is going to starve to death——!"

Ranbu, who had already calmed down, suddenly became noisy again. Even if Yingzi's forearm imprisoned his waist, Ranbu was still dishonest.He thrashed his arms and legs, trying to break free.

"Wait, whoa—"

Yingzi quickly caught Ranbu who was about to fall, and she tightly grasped the hem of Ranbu's jacket, revealing a section of fair skin at the doll's waist.

With lingering fear in her heart, Yingzi stuffed Luanbu back into her arms, and even hugged her harder.

If you fall like this, you will definitely have a concussion!

Miss Yosano can't heal a doll!No, no one can heal the doll!

Yingzi was so frightened that she ignored the group of people in front of her and looked down at Ranbu.

"It's too dangerous!"

"Who told you not to take this detective to eat ice cream!"

"Classmate Haruhi?"

"Ah? Ah, sorry!"

Xiaolan smiled gently, "Mr. Kasuga seems to care about this doll very much."

Not knowing what to answer, Sakura could only cover up her silence with a smile.

The topic of discussion about Sakurako ended because of Ranpo's interruption, and everyone turned their attention back to the case.

The police acted very quickly. When the police in Osaka found the husband of the deceased, he was not surprised at all, as if he had expected such an ending a long time ago.

As expected, Ji explained the matter clearly without any concealment, and the reasoning of the law, movement and chaos is exactly the same.

Everyone marveled at Sakurako's ingenious reasoning, saying something like "another powerful high-student detective appeared in Tokyo".

Yingzi responded to everyone's compliments one by one with a smile, and went to the corner to pick up the shopping bag containing Ranbu's clothes.

"Because the wife has a lover and kills her, is this love or hate? Or is it more appropriate to say that hatred arises out of love?"

Not knowing what came to mind, Yingzi lowered her eyes and put Luanbu back on her shoulders.

"Man is really a complicated creature, and he is troubled by various things every day."

Luanbu sat on Yingzi's shoulders and swayed his legs, still squinting his eyes softly, but upon closer inspection, it seemed that there were other emotions mixed with it.

"Originally, the matter of being alive is a process of constant compromise. Instead of being so sad, it is better to learn to accept it."

"Well, yes."

Sakura rubbed her head.

"You can't stay negative all the time."

"So," Luanbu gently tugged at Yingzi's hair by her ear, "Hurry up and take this detective to eat ice cream—idiot!"
