Chapter 195: Coercion, it's as simple as that

Chapter 195 Coercion, it's as simple as that

The group came to the inside of the casino, where the wide underwater restaurant was grand and dignified. It is worthy of the industrialist's industry, and the grandeur of this place amazes everyone present. If it weren't for the case that is happening now, maybe in a few days, it will become a great dining and tourist destination.

"Wow~~ It's really beautiful here, it's like an aquarium. There's also a Ferrari, it's an F40, right?" said Nana Oyamauchi, who seemed to have opened up a new continent. Indeed, although she is a popular model, compared to an industrialist like Xu Shengyi, her salary and related knowledge are really pitiful.

"But then again, why don't you see Mr. Asahi?" asked Sawaki to his father.

"Yes, I invited a guest to come, but I didn't show up. Dad also responded.

"Mofei, I've been ...... by Murakami," Shiratori said subconsciously.

"Hmm, what is Murakami, what does it mean?" Shishido, a photographer, sensitively noticed the problem in Shiratori's words.

"Ah, now that I think it's worth explaining. Officer Twilight took the opportunity to play.

"Police, I'll go inside and check it out first. Shiratori said.

"I'll go too. Dad said solemnly. Of course, Conan also secretly ran out. As for me, of course, I sat by Xiaolan's side and waited obediently. After all, I already know who the prisoner is, so what I have to do at this moment is to keep an eye on him, and then find an opportunity to attack him.

You can't use a pistol, you can get someone's attention with a random shot here, and although I have a muffler, I don't want him to die so comfortably. Similarly, the dagger can't be used, mainly because there is no chance, unless he waits until the next target strikes, maybe he can take the opportunity to do it, but there is still a risk. Of course, there is a third option. Expose his crimes. In front of everyone, and then ......

"Oh, I see. "I was thinking about how to get rid of Sawaki, but Officer Twilight had already explained the situation to everyone, and everyone said that they understood the significance of the trip, so Mr. Shishido was the first to speak.

"Guys, for the sake of prudence, I would like to ask, do any of you have any connection with Murakami?"

"How is that possible, with that kind of person. Nana Oyamauchi said dissatisfied.

"I don't have anything to do with it. Peter Ford waved his hand as well.

"I have. Nishina, who was on the side, said. "Before I became a food writer, I wrote crime novels. Murakami's case has been studied.

"I have it too. Shishido spoke as well. "In the last prisoner photo album, I took a picture of Murakami.

"Hmm...... That person was released from prison eight days ago, right?" At the same time, Nana seemed to think of something.

"yes. ”

"Well, that's okay. Nana quickly gave up on her thoughts, and when she came back to her senses, she found that everyone was staring at her. "I hate it, don't look at me so seriously. Nana quipped, then changed the subject and shouted at Nishina. "Then again, it's you!!, the writer who sells Parisian restaurants in books. The restaurant food recommended in that book is just terrible, do you really know what it means to be gastronomy!"

"It's rude, of course I know what food is!" "Nishina was also angered by Nana's words, and stood up and retorted loudly. However, after such a fuss, everyone's topic was really shifted.

"Really, then prove it to me!" Nana said with disdain. "This is a gift I brought to Mr. Asahi Katsuyoshi, so tell me what kind of wine it is. ”

"Test my ability to taste wine? "Nishina is confident in his tongue.

Soon, a glass of mellow wine was served. And Nishina also drank it after observing it, and savored it in his mouth.

"Well, this elegant violet fragrance and smooth taste are the favorite Chanblle of the former French Emperor Napoleon, right?"

"Hahaha!" As soon as Nishina's words fell, Nana couldn't help but laugh sarcastically. "How could I buy such an expensive wine and give it away? Ignoring Nishina's surprise, Nana walked up to Fair Sawaki. "You're a sommelier, aren't you? Come, tell the tasteless man what kind of wine this is. With that, Nana placed a glass of wine in front of Sawaki. This move made me raise my eyebrows. I couldn't help but take a step closer.

I saw that Sawaki picked up the wine glass very indifferently, and carefully observed the tempting and elegant liquid in the glass through the light. Gently shaking the glass, the fragrant liquor soon covered the walls of the glass, and then slipped down again, sniffed the fragrance of the wine, and then opened his mouth to drink. "It's Moulin.a.Vent. ”

"That's right~" Nana nodded clearly, then turned back to Nishina with disdain. "So, hurry up and take off your gourmand sign!" Nishina was dissatisfied, but he could only keep silent.

"Well...... I'm a little bit interested in wine. Ford was playing the round.

"Then let's all drink together. I'll go get the cup. ”

"Ah, I want a beer, kid, you know where the kitchen is, do you? "Shishido said so coolly.

"Hi~~" Conan squinted his half-moon eyes and forced his spirit, and then ran out with Shishido. As for me, I'm staying here, watching Sawaki's every move, everyone here is his target, if I don't keep an eye on it, if something goes wrong and hurts my dad or Xiaolan, I won't forgive myself.

——————————— Detective Conan's Fourteenth Target—————————————

"Anyway, why did you all come here?" While waiting for Asahi Katsuyoshi, Officer Twilight also began to ask everyone why they came.

"I called because Mr. Asahi's secretary said that Mr. Asahi liked my work very much and wanted to talk to me. Probably hoping that I would promote his casino. Shishido said proudly.

"I also called from the secretary, and the content was pretty much the same. Ford said the same, after all, he was a TV guy.

"I also received a gift. Nana happily took out something from her bag, which was a small bottle of nail polish, "It's very expensive from France." As she spoke, Nana raised the little thing in her hand.

"Hmm, Mr. Sawaki, here's a letter for you. While everyone was talking, Ford picked up a page from the ground and handed it to Sawaki, and everyone's eyes were drawn to the page.

[Mr. Fair Sawagi, I'm sorry, but I may be late. Please take your favorite wine from the wine rack in the cellar M-18 and invite everyone to drink, and the key is placed in the envelope next to the cash register, so please leave it to you. Sincerely, Asahi Katsuyoshi】

"Now, I'd like to see the cellar. Nana suggested. The others chimed in, and Officer Twilight led everyone to the cellar so that everyone would not be left alone.

When I came to the wine cellar, everyone was shocked by the spectacular scene of the wine cellar, indeed, the amount of wine required for a casino is really not small, but looking at this full cellar of wine, even I am a little interested. Well, it's time for Skinny Wolf to open a bar in the center of the island.

"It's a little cold in here. Xiaolan hugged her arms.

"No, I should say it's a little warm. Sawaki spoke softly. "The best temperature for wine is between 10 and 14 degrees. And the temperature here shows that it is seventeen degrees, which is already on the warm side. ”

With Sawaki's explanation, everyone began to watch it casually in the wine cellar, especially Officer Shiratori, who likes wine himself, and he couldn't take his eyes off this place, and the heat in his eyes was self-evident.

"M-18 Wine Rack ......" Sawaki followed the brand number on the wine rack, and Conan happened to be standing next to him, and when he saw the wine rack, he spoke. "Over there...... Wait!

"Uh-huh!" Hearing Conan's shout, Sawaki subconsciously turned his head, and then saw a crossbow arrow shooting at him at a rapid speed from behind him. But fortunately, with Conan's reminder just now, he was able to dodge an arrow that was shot.

"It's a trap...... Uncle!" Conan shouted urgently.

When everyone heard Conan's shout, they all hurried towards him, and then they found that on the barrel of the wine rack, there was a crossbow arrow, and the crossbow was fixed there at the wine rack behind it. Underneath the crossbow, an Eight of Spades card is sitting there.

"The eight of spades, sure enough, it's Murakami. He also deliberately lured us over. Shiratori said solemnly. "But why skip nine to attack eight?"

“…… Is it difficult?!" Officer Dusk's pupils contracted suddenly.

"Anyway, officer, let's get out of here and take refuge. Dad suggested. Then Officer Twilight left with us all. On the way, Conan fell behind and walked to my side, and as soon as the group disappeared around the corner, Conan suddenly rushed at me, grabbed me by the collar and yelled at me.

"Kaoru, you know who the prisoner is, why don't you tell the prisoner!"

“…… Why do I say that?" I looked at Conan with understatement.

"Because you didn't report it, you almost killed another person just now, you know!"

"Hehe, do you blame me for wanting to kill people? You know that you are still in the process of killing people in a row, and you still want to come into this trap to find out. Did I let you in?" I looked at Conan with disdain. "Xu Shengyi is the next target to be attacked, and then all the targets that the prisoners have their eyes on are gathered here, and you dare to jump into such a big pit. And now you have to blame me? If you had chosen not to come in, wouldn't it have been fine?"

"You!" Conan was speechless.

"Besides, I said that I want to find out the prisoner in front of everyone, so I need a chance, so I came here, otherwise, you think I will let my father and Xiaolan take such a risk?"

"But do you know that Mr. Sawaki almost died because of your actions! Even if you want to expose your flaws in front of everyone, you can't ......"

"......" Conan's words were not finished, and I found that my face was already full of banter. For a moment, Conan seemed to understand something.

"Wait, you already knew that Mr. Asahi was dead?" Conan let go of his hand.

"How else would it be eight?" I shook my head, looking at Conan with disdain.

"But what you said to me when you first came in meant that the prisoner wasn't Murakami, but one of the people here, right?"

"There is a good chance that Murakami has already been killed by the murderer. I said indifferently.

"Nani?!" Conan's eyes shrank slightly. Thinking for a moment, "One of these people here will be a murderer, and you will find a way to make him show his flaws, but you will not have the slightest emotional fluctuation about the attack on Sawaki just now, and the source of that peace is not because Sawaki was killed, but because he is not dead? The murderer is Sawaki fair, so you don't feel a trace of surprise at his escape? and you don't have the impatience to seize the opportunity?"

"Well...... It's not too silly. If the murderer can slaughter himself, I'll save trouble. The corners of my mouth went up slightly. An envelope was drawn from the necklace. "Here's all the information about Sawaki's recent history. Including his motive for committing the crime, but I have no evidence, and the evidence will be found out in front of everyone later. As I spoke, I handed the envelope over and said in a cold voice. "But, Kudo. You have to understand that if you take this information, it proves that you have thrown in the towel. You are not allowed to interfere with all my actions in the future, otherwise, don't blame me for turning my face and not recognizing people. Of course, you can also not take it, and you will continue to investigate the case later, but if anyone dies during the period, I will never care. Except, of course, Xiaolan and my dad. ”

"You!" Conan choked on my words again. Although he was not convinced, he didn't dare not accept it, there were seven targets behind him, if seven innocent people died because of one murderer......

Without much thought, Conan snatched the envelope from my hand. "Okay, but you have to make sure no one gets killed!"

"Deal~" A wicked smile appeared on the corner of my mouth. "Then, Sawaki's fair life, I'll take it!" (To be continued.) )
