Ah, it's even more troublesome.

Yuanzi pulled her to the two of them and introduced, "Uncle, Auntie, this is my friend Winette Moriarty, who also came to see Xiaolan's competition."

"Hahaha, hello! I'm Kogoro Mori, a private detective. Miss, if you need anything, you can come to me anytime!" Kogoro Mori made a handsome look.

Winnet: "..."

Before she could reply, the capable and beautiful woman who was three seats away from her also stood up, held out her business card to her, and looked like her temples were tight.

"I'm Fei Yingli, a lawyer. If you are harassed by some strange uncle, miss, or have emotional or financial disputes, you can come to me."

Winnet: "..."

"What do you mean by being a woman?" Mori Kogoro crossed his shoulders with a displeased expression on his face.

Fei Yingli showed no mercy: "Because I saw someone harassing a high school girl."

High, high school students?

What a faux pas!

She, Miss Winette, is 20 years old this year, a serving pastor, and has a theology degree from Princeton.

Speaking of which, my identity is a bit contradictory.

A country girl in England, heir to a French consortium, graduated from an American university.

Seeing the state of the two of them, Sonoko also twitched the corners of her mouth. She leaned into Winnet's ear:

"Miss Winnet, they are separating... Don't look at them like this, but the relationship is actually quite good, right?"

Winnett nodded, indeed.

If it's really a broken relationship, it's really not speculative, and each finds a lover to live, in her opinion, it's more common.

Sonoko helped Winnet sit down, and then came to the quarreling two people:

"Uncle and aunt, you are here to cheer for Xiaolan, aren't you? If Xiaolan sees you arguing, she will definitely feel depressed..."

Sonoko pulled Fei Yingli to sit next to Mouri:

"I'll just sit with Miss Winnett. If the two of you sit together and cheer for Xiao Lan, she'll definitely 'huh!' and knock her opponent down!"

Seeing Gao Qingshang Yuanzi throwing his fist and pretending to be a kind guy, Winnet couldn't help feeling:

What a considerate, gentle and pleasant child!

There is no airs of Miss Qianjin at all.

Not long after sitting in the seat, Yuanzi began to cheer for Mao Lilan, remembering to explain the situation to Winnet from time to time.

This made Winnet feel embarrassed. She watched the group match in the center of the venue. Each game lasted about 3 minutes. Mao Lilan's game was extremely fast, scoring effectively in just two or three hits, which was almost a dimensionality reduction blow.

And the girl she saw at the scene of the robbery last time—

You are finally using karate!

Because of too many strange phenomena, Miss Winnet always felt uncomfortable.

In contrast, Shi Bensheng's performance was a bit ordinary, playing steadily and preserving his energy.

The competition quickly entered the next stage. The main time-consuming process in the venue was the players' rest time and the noon timeout.

Winnet stayed until about three o'clock in the afternoon.

The banquet started at 04:30, so she explained the situation to Yuanzi and left early, and at this time, she had already entered the quarterfinals.

When Shi Bensheng saw Winnet leaving the table, his heart skipped a beat.

Is she acting too badly?

She couldn't help but start thinking wildly.

It may also be that she thought that she would stop there. Shi Bensheng realized that there were several powerful opponents in the venue, and the probability of her winning was almost slim.

She stared at the stands with complicated eyes, and then threw herself into the game.

The radio broadcast: "The next quarter-finals of the women's group will be held. The red team will be from Qingchun Girls' Academy, and Tokimoto will be contestant; the blue team will be from Didan High School, and Mao Lilan will be contestant."

Immediately, the referee announced the start of the game.

Shi Bensheng noticed that Winnett was sitting next to the girls cheering for Mao Lilan early in the morning, and she even felt in her heart that her teacher was not watching her game, but watching her opponent's game this time.

As a result, her mood became more gloomy and complicated, and these negative emotions were transformed into a desire to win. She took a deep breath and put on a posture.

"Xiaolan, come on!" Yuanzi's voice came from the stands.

Mao Lilan chose to attack strongly as before.

Due to the limited positions and techniques that can be used in the game, sparring mainly focuses on punching and kicking.

Shi Bensheng felt that Mao Lilan's punch was powerful, but the speed and rhythm were not as good as those of the previous players. She swung away Mao Lilan's punch while dodging, trying to hit the upper body, but was pulled away immediately distance.

"What I'm good at is kicking."

Shi Bensheng had observed her movements before, and made this judgment. The moment Mao Lilan lifted her foot, she also retreated backwards, and a swift roundabout kick from the upper section made her stop, and then Mao Lilan switched feet A mid kick hit her.

The referee announced: "The blue team, the kick in the middle is valid, score!"

……

144 Where OP Begins

Before arriving at the banquet, Winnet changed back into the pastor's clothes.

Upon arrival, she handed out invitations.

A servant in a maid outfit led her through the manicured courtyard to a circular mansion in the shape of a school building. The bright red carpet stretched from the corridor to the banquet hall.

Entering the venue, Sophia, who was wearing a red dress, caught her immediately.

"You're late again."

Just late.

Miss Winnet really didn't want to come at all.

This Seba Zunde is engaged in investment, and the Durant Group is a real industry, and there is no use value in dealing with him, and this person's reputation does not seem to be very good.

How could Sophia not be clear about Winnett's Xiao Jiujiu, she said bluntly: "It's just to say hello, these people present are the targets, even the general manager of Mitsubishi Bank and others are present, just to clear up the relationship."

Winnet really wanted to complain, why must she be used to clear the relationship.

Does it mean that the Durant Group will fully follow your Miss Sophia's plan?

Miss Winnett has a sense of déjà vu that she was caught as a mascot after being ostracized. Although the more she shows up, the more she will become a so-called "public figure", but it is still a good disguise.

Just when she was about to have a big meal at the banquet, a gunshot and extremely painful cries came from a room not far from the banquet hall.

The guests who were dining in the living room broke through the door and headed for the room where the screams came from.

Sophia puts down her glass:

"What happened?"

"It seems to be a gunshot, probably some unlucky guy was shot."

While the crowd was leaving, Miss Winette quickly filled herself with a large piece of beef, and gnawed on it regardless of her image.

Sophia squeezed her temples hard, and said wearily:

"Pastor, you should pay attention to your image."

"It's okay, these dead guys won't come to my business anyway, it's not popular for priests to help with burials here."

Sophia: "..."

"The general manager of Mitsubishi Bank, Mr. Yamazaki was killed!"

"Who did it?"

"The room was locked. When I knocked open the door, I saw Mr. Yamazaki fell to the ground. The window was wide open. The murderer must have come in through the window!"

"It seems that the person you want to get acquainted with is dead?"

With her mouth full, Winnet tilted her head and said.

Sophia: "..."

Miss Wynette ordered some more spaghetti to fill her stomach before the police arrived and thus save another dinner.

Although Sophia wanted to criticize Winnet from a moral point of view, she also thought that Winnet's attitude towards the deceased was extremely calm on the cruise ship, and the other party was her immediate superior, so she gave up this idea.

It has to be said that the speed of the police in Japan is quite fast.

Miss Winnet had just eaten half of the plate when a police officer with a big belly rushed in from the door.

Wearing an orange coat, baggy brown trousers, and a British round cap on his head, he looks like a fictional sheriff character in a mystery novel.

After arriving, he asked everyone to stay in the living room, and then went to the scene with the forensics members to investigate and collect evidence.

Now that she was imprisoned, Miss Winnet had to continue with her meal.

She remained calm on the surface, but she had already started to think in her heart:

This time, which detective came here to solve the case?

Although she had an attitude of watching the excitement and making complaints, it wasn't that she didn't think about it at all.

During the banquet, there were at least 20 people who left in the middle of the banquet, and the crowd was crowded. There was no good way to confirm the specific people who left, and there was a murder case. Everyone present was in a panic and it was difficult to cooperate with the investigation.

The known news is that the door is locked inside.

On the way to the banquet hall, she saw the door of this house, only the bottom is not tightly connected, leaving a little gap, but the lock is very classical, you need to push and pull, lift the lock, and then buckle it again Ring new lock.

It is so complicated that it is difficult to complete it with a temporary mechanism.

Judging from the fact that the victim stayed in the house alone, the probability of locking it himself is relatively high. The murderer may have informed him in advance that he had a secret matter to discuss and asked him to lock it in the bedroom and wait.

If she escaped through the window, she couldn't judge without inspecting the situation with her own eyes.

However, the place where the gunshots sounded was upstairs, that is, the third floor. Because of the single-family villa, the floor was much higher than that of ordinary houses. To escape safely from such a high place, one had to be prepared in advance or be strong.

As Miss Winnet expected, after some investigation, the police immediately fell into a state of helplessness.

There were so many people at the scene that it was very difficult to specifically identify the murderer.

Sophia frowned.

More than an hour has passed since the police investigation started.

She responded with a distrustful attitude and whispered:

"It's a stalemate at all, and they even made a phone call."

"Because you're looking for a detective, that's what's written in the newspapers."

"So they haven't established a regular cooperative detective, and they have to find someone on the spot every time?"

"Probably because the police's self-esteem is relatively strong... All the people who come here are uniformed inspections. In the case of a shortage of talents, it is already very good to be able to maintain this."

It is also a kind of dignity to stand up to the contempt of others.

Winette felt that there was nothing to be ashamed of. She knew the police from all over the world, and most of them relied on detectives to solve crimes. When strange things became normal, it was naturally not surprising.

More than half an hour later, the host of the banquet, Seba Zuntoku, finally became impatient:

"I said, Officer Meguro, how long are you going to detain my guest? I don't have time to accompany you in this kind of search without evidence."

Before he spoke, relevant police officers had already conducted an investigation on the belongings of the guests present.

The police officer surnamed Mu Mu in an orange coat raised his hands to appease:

"Okay, okay, Mr. Sewa... Anyway, the dead are all guests at your banquet! Manager Yamazaki of Mitsubishi Bank was killed at your place, please bear with me a little longer."

"You mean to say that the suspect is within us?" Seba Zuntoku was even more displeased.

Before he could raise a protest in the future, a figure wearing a bag walked in the dark corridor.

A white shirt, a blue suit, and a big red bow tied around the neckline.

"You're right!"

"The murder room is a secret room, and the door is locked from the inside. The suspect sneaked in from the next-door window on the third floor, and then ran out through the window."
