Chapter 52 Death is Coming ==

"Ms. Domoto, you killed your husband." After the coffee was served, Conan said calmly.

"...What nonsense are you talking about!" The butler was the first one to exclaim: "Mr. Maori, you are indeed a famous detective, but that doesn't mean you can slander our wife casually, she has always been conscientious to the master— —”

"Marriage is not a job, and the word conscientious and conscientious is not used. I said that I would start from the beginning. This is just a conclusion. Please listen to my reasoning now." Conan said unhurriedly: "I haven't done anything. Because it is easier for children to inquire about the news. As far as I know, Mrs. Domoto got married seven years ago because Mr. Domoto saved her endangered mother who needed surgery. I have asked many people about this, and I am sure that Mrs. Domoto is indeed It’s not about the money, there’s no doubt about that.”

Domoto Xingli snorted coldly: "I knew she had bad intentions, if it wasn't for money, why would she kill father!"

"I said it wasn't Madam who killed her!" the housekeeper argued.

The young master who had just come back, and the eldest son of the Tang Ben family, Tang Benhe frowned slightly: "Everyone quietly listened to Detective Maori finish his speech, everyone was making a lot of noise, what did it look like?"

He has been in charge of his father's company all year round, and he speaks boldly, and the house quickly quiets down.

"And Domoto Korei has his own studio outside, and rarely participates in the family's business dealings; Domoto Yuka lives in seclusion all year round, and does not violate his father's will."

Domoto Yuka nodded: "That's right, neither my second brother nor I had a reason to kill my father, could it be..." Domoto Yuka looked at her eldest brother, full of surprise and uncertainty.

"Originally Domoto Kazuo was the most motivated one, but he has been abroad during this period of time. I have investigated, and the housekeeper and servants of the mansion have no close relationship with him." People can't listen to it.

"Who is that? Detective Maori, you just said that it was the woman—" Domoto Xingli glanced at Mrs. Domoto: "Please explain clearly, it's not like we can't accept it!"

"Don't worry, I'm talking. Only Tang Benhe in the whole family has a motive for killing, and he is the best scapegoat."

"What does Maori detective mean, someone framed me?"

"Yes, I already know the reason for the frame, it's just for this." Conan held Kogoro's hand to let them see clearly what was in the palm.

"Is... a ring?" A beautiful ring, made of white gold, sparkling with pink diamonds.

"Yes, this ring is the reason for everything!"

As soon as I said this, there was a "snap", and all the lights in the room were extinguished, and it was a black hole, and I couldn't see my fingers.

"What's going on?" There were many bustling voices in the darkness, and Conan listened carefully.

Then, not long after, a candle was lit, which was held by the housekeeper.

"Wait a minute, everyone. I'm going to check the power distribution room. Maybe the fuse is blown." He lit a candlestick and left with the candle.

Conan looked around, and it seemed that no one left here, but it was just what he wanted.

"Tch, this kind of thing happened." Domoto Xingli sat on the chair, picked up the coffee cup and took a big sip: "Alright, let's take this opportunity to take a break, little girl, sit down."

"Okay." One of them drank the coffee, and the others naturally followed suit. Their mouths would be a little dry after being nervous for so long.

The only one who didn't move was Kogoro, who naturally couldn't eat in a coma.

"Mr. Maori, please take a break. The murderer won't run away. We have enough time." The young master raised his glass to him.

"Uncle never likes to drink coffee, how about I drink it!" Conan suddenly jumped out, holding up the teacup with a bright smile: "Then I will drink it!"

At that moment, he could see the expressions of all the people looking at him, and none of them looked down.

"Conan! Don't be naughty." Xiao Lan said as expected.

"Oops!" Conan exclaimed, he didn't know whether he was frightened or burned, but he always threw away the coffee cup. The cup fell to the ground without breaking, but the coffee in it spilled all over the floor.

At the same time, the electric light was shining again, and the time before and after was exactly 5 minutes.

"Conan, look at you! I'm so sorry, this kid is so naughty..." While apologizing, Xiaolan bent down to tidy up.

"Just put it there, Xiaolan." Conan said calmly in Kogoro's voice: "Fortunately, with Conan here, I seem to have escaped a crisis. Everyone, you can spread your hands and let me see you the palm of your hand?"

Several people spread out their palms one after another, Conan looked around, bounced back, and pretended to say something to Kogoro with his ears attached.

"Thank you, Conan, as expected." He said again in Kogoro's voice: "It is dangerous to directly contact the toxin with the skin, because it will leave obvious traces. Domoto Korei, this power outage must be caused by you , because you poisoned my coffee in the dark. I can vouch for my detective career that this poison is exactly the same poison that poisoned Mr. Domoto."

"...Second brother, is it you?" Domoto Yuka looked at him in shock.

"No, it's impossible! Mori Kogoro, you're spitting blood!"

"Then how do you explain that you have traces of poison in such a short period of time when your fingers were clean just now? If you search you now, I believe you can find residues of poisonous reactions."

Domoto Korei's face was pale, his lips were trembling.

"It's you, it turned out to be you...why did you do that!" Tang Benhe suddenly punched him flying: "That's my father! That's my father!! How could you—"

"This should be similar to the reason for poisoning me, this ring." Conan continued: "You want to kill me, just because you don't want me to say something that is not good for the owner of the ring, right? As for the owner of the ring, you can see Lettering."

Tang Benhe took the ring over and slowly spun it: "Y...Y?" His complexion also changed immediately, and it turned out to be pale as well.

"That's right, YY. I didn't know what it meant at first, but I found out after going to the butler's room that the housekeeper turned out to be Mrs. Domoto's uncle, and Mrs. Domoto's life is Mei, Mei Sakurakura .”

"...That's right, that's my name." Mrs. Tang Ben said softly: "A famous detective is worthy of being a famous detective. He has found so many in just two days. This ring is mine."

"But Mr. Domoto didn't give it to you." Conan said.

"Indeed, you have already guessed who gave me this ring, haven't you?"

"It's Domoto Koryi who poisoned you." Conan said: "Mr. Domoto must have discovered this ring by accident, right? He also guessed the possible origin of this ring, which is why you have murderous intentions. I said right?"

"No...Of course not!" Domoto Xingli waved his arms wildly: "It's not me, it's really not me! I admit that I was poisoned just now, but I didn't kill my father, how could I kill my father!"

"Then why did you poison just now? Didn't you want to cover up your crime?"

Domoto Xingli shook his head again and again: "I'm really not... I poisoned because—" He looked at Mrs. Domoto.

"That's right, the two of us have been together for a while." Mrs. Tang Ben said very calmly: "He did it for me. He was afraid that I would be suspected by you, so he simply settled it." Mrs. Tang Ben picked up the ring: " I found it disappeared without a trace, but I didn't expect it to be your evidence."

"The evidence is solid, what else is there to say!" Domoto Yuka said sharply: "Second brother, I didn't expect you to have an affair with this bitch and even kill your father! I didn't expect you to do such a thing..." She With tears and tears, nothing can be said.

"I really haven't, I don't know what's going on!" Domoto Xingli's rebuttal at this moment, in the eyes of everyone, is just a desperate beast.

But Conan said again: "Wait a minute... Mrs. Tangben, and the second young master of Tangben's family, I suddenly found a problem. Maybe—"

"Oh!"

This is the second time his reasoning has been interrupted.

Urahara Kisuke walked in with his eyebrows in his arms, seeing how busy they were here, he nodded and laughed, "Don't bother me, I'll go back to our room."

"What's wrong with Meisha?" Xiaolan asked quickly.

"It's okay, I don't need you to worry about it." Kisuke Urahara left.

This was a small episode. When Conan turned his face again, he found that he seemed to have missed some details.Domoto Xingli glared at Mrs. Domoto viciously, his loving and caring eyes were full of hatred and unbelievable pain.

"Why... I love you so much, you actually!"

Mrs. Tangben's expression was very calm: "It's not all out of love that you do, if you don't know that he is going to hand over and inherit everything, and only give you some money to start your own business, you wouldn't let him I do it with you. Don't I?"

"You, what did you say!"

"If it wasn't Kogoro Mori, you would have succeeded, and then the three of you would share the inheritance equally." Mrs. Domoto was calm from beginning to end, narrating everything, as if she had given up.

"You actually said such things..." Domoto Koryi took a step back, then another step, and suddenly knocked everyone away and rushed out the door.

"Ah!" Domoto Yuka exclaimed.Tang Benhe didn't chase after him, he still held the ring in his hand and lowered his head.

When the others chased him out, Domoto Xingrei was paralyzed in the lobby on the first floor, his body twisted continuously, as if he wanted to struggle to get up but couldn't.However, the strength of his body was getting weaker and weaker, and finally he lay there paralyzed and slowly closed his eyes.

"Two...Brother!" Domoto Yuka collapsed on the ground, carefully touched him with her hand, but found that he had stopped breathing and heartbeat.

"He committed suicide by taking poison." Tang Benhe, who finally came out of the house, said slowly, "No matter what he did wrong, no matter what the reason was, he has paid for his sins with his life. For us, he is still our relatives. .”

"Brother!" Domoto Yuka threw herself into his arms and sobbed.

Conan watched from behind, suddenly feeling something was wrong.Where did I seem to... I missed something, did I do something wrong?

Without much time to think, Mrs. Domoto appeared behind her: "So, are you going to take me away now? Mr. Maori. After all, you have seen everything, and I have pleaded guilty."

Conan looked back at her with a condensed expression.Something was wrong, it must be . . . but he didn't know.He has reasoned and searched for evidence, and everything is normal.But it's not like this...isn't it like this

Come to think of it, what have you missed?

"Hey, do you need help?" Urahara Kisuke suddenly poked his head out again: "Meisha doesn't seem to need me, I'll come and have a look."

Conan stepped on Mori Kogoro violently, and then walked to his side: "It's over, the murderer has been caught."

"Really? It seems that I missed a good show, but it seems that there is something to confuse you." He told Urahara Kisuke the general things, this man is much more reliable than Mori Kogoro.

"Hmm—that's right." Urahara Kisuke touched his chin, waved his small fan and said with a smile, "It's really interesting to say that like you, but you have to think of many possibilities."

"For example?" Conan scratched his head irritably: "I have thought about all the possibilities, even whether two people framed each other, I have thought about it, none of them is possible."

"Why is it impossible?" Kisuke Urahara asked back.

"I also wondered if the lady was framed, but she confessed the crime by herself, and there is nothing suspicious about it."

"She has no doubts, what about the other one?"

Conan looked at him strangely, wondering whether he should continue to discuss the reasoning with him: "The other one poisoned Uncle Kogoro, and he has been found guilty."

"Being guilty doesn't mean he killed someone." Kisuke Urahara's eyes kept flickering: "Man, sometimes he will do stupid things for the woman he likes. Anyway, you've already caught him, why don't you find a chance to ask him?" What is his impression of Mrs. Tang Ben?"

"Hmm..." Conan looked at Mrs. Domoto, who was standing quietly and resigned to her fate: "Okay, I hope I can ask you something."

"Lilies also have thorns. I don't think you will be disappointed."

But the matter here has come to an end, Conan moved his body: "What's wrong with Meisha? You went out to find her, why did you bring her back?"

"It's nothing, she went out to play, fell asleep after playing, I'll bring her back." Urahara Kisuke narrowed his eyes: "She will have a good dream, and my good day is coming soon."

Meisha was indeed dreaming, in fact, she knew what had happened the moment she passed out, so she didn't regain her sanity and let this force pull her into the deep darkness.
