Friday, February 27, 6pm, Maori Detective Agency.

A middle-aged woman approached the door, and Mori invited her to sit while asking Conan to inform Yamazaki.

A moment later, Ran had just served a good tea to a middle-aged woman when Yamazaki and Conan came over.

The middle-aged woman said: "My name is Ninety-Nine Seven Hui, and I was introduced by Yingli. ”

Maori said: "I see, that guy kept arguing that the person he wanted to introduce was you." ”

"Really, the business introduced by my mother," Lan smiled, "The relationship between the two of you has been pretty good lately, maybe you can return to your original state soon." ”

"You did it, Lan?" said Maori, "I thought it was strange that guy would call me." ”

"Isn't it right for me to do this, I want my mother to come back soon. Lan said.

"Really, children don't meddle in the affairs of adults. Maori said, "Also, let's tell her about our family, and I'll just say where you got so much pocket money last time, she lent it to you." ”

"What. Lan puffed out her mouth in anger.

"Ahem!" Mori asked, "Nanae Lady, may I ask you something?"

"Actually," said Ninety-Nine-Seven Megumi, "it's about my husband's disappearance last Sunday, the 22nd of this month. ”

"It's been five days since the 22nd disappeared, have you called the police?" asked Maori.

"That's when I called the police. Ninety-nine-seven Hui said.

"At that time?" asked Maori, "if you go missing, it will take 24 hours, right?"

"My husband is missing at home. Ninety-nine-seven Hui said.

"At home, not running away from home, right?" asked Maori.

"No, no, we couldn't find him anywhere when we came back from the show that night, so we went to his dedicated studio, which was a basement, but he wasn't in there either, and then we found some vomit on the floor and a big mess of playing cards on the table. "Generally speaking, my husband wouldn't let props sit like this. ”

"Props, performances?" Lan asked, "Excuse me, who are you?"

"We are magicians, my husband is a magician, his name is Jiujiu Yuankang, he is quite famous in the world, and we live with three apprentices. "We went out to perform that day, but my husband thought the appearance fee was too small, so he stayed at home. ”

"Ninety-nine Yuankang!" Lan smiled, "Dad, I know this person, I often see him on TV as a judge on magic shows, he is a world-famous magician. ”

"Is that so?" asked Maori.

"Also, somebody just watches horse races. Lan said angrily, and then smiled, "By the way, Dad, I remember, didn't my family go to his magic show together when I was a child? Well, the photos should be in this cabinet. With that, he went to look for the photo.

"That's when I met Eiri," said Ninety-Nine-Seven, "and I've been working as our family's lawyer ever since." ”

"That's why she introduced you. Maori said.

Ninety-nine-seven Hui said: "Yes, Yingli said that if you find someone, the one in my family is an absolutely reliable candidate." ”

Maori blushed a little, and then said, "What is this guy talking about, of course other aspects are not a problem." And then he said, "Go on." ”

"I thought someone had come to my house and beat my husband and took him away. "But we checked all the surveillance footage and didn't find anyone coming in, and we didn't find anyone going out." ”

Maori asked, "So did someone do anything with the surveillance footage?"

"No, we brought in a security expert to analyze the surveillance system, and after spending a day inspecting it, he said that because our yard is so big, that when the surveillance camera swings, there will be a dead end of about 30 seconds at the main entrance every two hours or so. Ninety-nine-seven Hui said.

In this way, this person must have taken advantage of this time to enter and exit. "He must have been watching your family for a long time, and this was a planned abduction." ”

"But the experts can't say exactly how my husband got out. There are 200 meters between the door of our house and the courtyard gate, and because we want to be quiet and don't want people to drive into the yard, there is no concrete road on the ground, only stone slabs that can be used for two people to walk side by side. "My husband weighs more than one hundred and ten kilograms, he is relatively fat, and he is not very tall, so it is absolutely impossible for him to run out of the gate and hide in the woods outside the yard in thirty seconds." And if I had used something like a pusher, the wheels of this thing, my husband's weight, would have left rolling marks on the ground between the stones, but I didn't find this. ”

Lan said: "By the way, I remember that Mr. Ninety-Nine was indeed a comparative, well, wide man. ”

"Found the picture?" said Maori, "take it and take a look." ”

"No, the album doesn't seem to be here. Lan said.

"The security experts said that apart from using a helicopter, the only possibility was for two able-bodied men to carry my husband out on a stretcher. However, the police said that no helicopter flew over my house that day, and there were no footprints on the road outside the yard and on the land between the woods. And if you stop on the road and drive away, you will definitely be captured by surveillance cameras. ”

"It's really weird. Maori said, touching his chin.

"Also," said Ninety-Nine-Seven, "the police later discovered that my husband's vomit contained half a capsule, as well as a taponine component. ”

"Butine?" said Maori, "I remember ......"

"It is a poison that can paralyze the nerves," Conan said, "a drug extracted from the leaves and roots of a plant called Birdhood, which is called aconite in Chinese, and is used internally to relieve the pain of cancer and externally to paralyze nerve endings." Soluble in water, that is, it takes effect quickly, 0.2 mg can poison people, and 3 mg can be fatal. ”

Lan asked in surprise, "Where are these ......?"

Conan said: "There are many in the mountains, and the bird is a common Chinese medicinal material. ”

"I'm not asking this," Ran asked, "I'm asking you, Conan, how do you know these things?"

"Me?" Conan hurriedly said, "On the electricity and TV, someone drank wine with a bird's pocket and had an accident, and then they went on TV, and there were a lot of them introduced on TV, but I can't remember clearly." ”

"I see. Lan said.

"That is, your husband once ate a capsule containing caterine and then spit it out. Maori said, "Someone must have made him eat it, and he must have vomited it himself." ”

"Now," Conan asked, "Auntie, who are you in your family?"

"There are only three of us in the family and three apprentices of my husband, and my husband thinks that doing housework is also a kind of practice, so the three apprentices take turns to take care of the housework. ”

Maori said, "So, this capsule must have been placed by one of these three people." ”

"But it doesn't make sense, my husband's three apprentices, the first is the current ace of our magic troupe, Sanada Kazuzo, he is regarded as the heir of my husband, he was personally chosen by my husband, and he has been with us for more than ten years. The second place is Miyoshi Asako, although the personality is willful, but the technology is first-class, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is the first master among female magicians in China, she has been with us since she was very young. The third is Hiroshi Momochi, who was introduced by a friend and is a rich kid who likes magic and wants to become a magician. "None of the three of them would have harmed my husband, and if it was them, then they and I were performing elsewhere at the time, and there was no way to stop my husband, since my husband could vomit the poison, he must have known, he would definitely call an ambulance or go to the hospital, in this case, the surveillance camera would definitely record it." ”

Maori thought for a moment and asked, "So, Ms. Nanae, there is no trace of your house being invaded?"

"Nope. Ninety-nine-seven Hui said, "And our house is an electronic lock, if the password is not right, it is impossible to come in, this password is only known to the five of us, even my daughter does not know." ”

Maori asked, "So, Ms. Nanae, have you received any blackmail letters or similar phone calls?"

"Nope. "Actually, I'd love to receive a blackmail letter, so that at least my husband is still alive." ”

"Well," Maori asked, "are you sure something happened to your husband?"

"Yes, it wasn't determined until today. "Today is my daughter's seventh birthday, and we agreed to celebrate her together, but my husband prepared a birthday present a month ago. ”

Maori said: "Then, in the current situation, it seems that an acquaintance went to your house and opened the door, gave your husband a capsule containing calveine and tried to kill him, and your husband spit out the capsule and was taken away by that person." ”

"Maybe that's it. Ninety-nine-seven Hui said.

"Well, the only thing that went wrong was the pile of cards on the table. Conan touched his chin and asked, "Is there anything in there that could be a clue?"

"Ahem!" Yamazaki reminded, then saw that Conan was already hot-headed and entered the state, and didn't care at all, and then looked at Lan who was staring at Conan with a strange look, and shook his head helplessly.

Ninety-nine-seven Hui said: "If there is a clue, it is that there are two cards in that pile of playing cards that are glued together, which seems to indicate the phone replay button, and when you press the replay button on the phone under that pile of playing cards, a set of numbers will appear." He then took out two sticky playing cards from his bag and a piece of paper with numbers written on them and handed them to Maori.

"That number should be a code. Maori said, then thought for a moment and asked, "Can you take me to the scene?"

Ninety-nine-seven Hui said, "Of course you can. ”

Conan said with some excitement, "Great, I've wanted to see what the magician's home looks like." ”

"No, I can't. Maori said, "You little devil keep me at home." ”

"I want to go too. "And Conan has seen a lot of strange things on TV, so you can take him with you, Dad." Then he looked at Conan and said, "He might have made some unexpected discoveries through the eyes of a child." ”

"An unexpected discovery?" Maori said after a moment's thought, "well, but you can give me a good look at him." ”……
