Sunday, January 6th, Okuhei House in Kakuto Town.

After the conversation was over, he said that he was tired and would go back to his bedroom to lie down for a while, and let Maori go to the swimming pool in the backyard to investigate.

The Maori trio went out of the living room to the backyard, passed by the enclosed garden balcony, and saw Mrs. Opin drinking coffee alone, and greeted her.

"Finished talking?" Mrs. Oping put down her coffee and got up, "Yingyou, you come with me, Mr. Maori, you can also come, when the house was cleaned up a few years ago, I stumbled upon Yingyou's mother's relics." ”

Eiyu Hondo was surprised, "Huh? Really?"

Mrs. Ao Ping smiled: "Yes, I am worried about how to contact you, but you are here yourself, it must be that I found you." ”

Mrs. Opin was still laughing at the end, but she looked sad.

"Ma'am. Eiyu Hondo was a little worried.

"I'm fine. Okuhei shook her hand.

Maori changed the subject, "Isn't Madame supposed to be in the study?"

Mrs. Opin pouted, "Ask me to help clean up the books in the study?" ”

"He's always picky in the egg, and the last time he was about to sort out the big open book that he had just arrived, when he was about to open the cardboard box, he was severely reprimanded, saying that he was not allowed to touch it until he opened it. ”

"In order to accommodate those large open books, the shelves were remodeled, and finally almost all the books had to be removed, and it was a mess.

"I don't care, let him toss it himself. ”

While speaking, Mrs. Ao Ping led everyone to the side hall and took out a shabby handbag, "Yingyou open it and take a look." ”

Eiyu Hondo opened it and found a mother-and-child handbook, which was his birth certificate.

Mrs. Ao Ping smiled: "If it weren't for this thing, I wouldn't know whose bag it was, but Yingyou, you were really cute when you were a child." ”

"It's fine. "Eiyu Hondo is a little embarrassed.

Maori asked, "Now, what kind of blood type are you, there should be one on it, right?"

"O-type, of course. "Hondo Eiyu showed it to Maori.

"What's wrong with Yingyou's blood type?" asked Lady Ao Ping curiously.

Hondo Eiyu said: "That's the case, Uncle Maori suspects that my sister is the host Shui Wurenai. ”

"Ah," thought Lady Oping, "you are quite alike, especially Fengmu. ”

Eiyu Hondo said: "But the blood type of the host Mizuno is AB, and I am type O.

"And I once received a blood transfusion from my sister, which means that my sister is also blood type O, because it is impossible to transfuse type AB blood to type O. ”

In other words, my sister and the host are definitely not the same person. ”

Mrs. Opei nodded, "Speaking of which, there was such a thing, and it wasn't long after Yingyou and his father went to live in Osaka. ”

"That day, the hospital called me and said that there was a child named Eiyu Hondo who was admitted to the intensive care unit and lacked relatives and friends, and his sister asked me to come by name and wanted me to go.

"At that time, it scared me, and I thought to myself that something big had happened. ”

"I rushed over and saw his sister lying on the hospital bed exhausted and asleep, and asked the nurse what was wrong, and it was said that Yingyou had an accident, and then his sister gave him a large amount of blood, saying that it was okay to give all my blood to my brother. ”

Hondo Yingyou scratched his head embarrassedly, "That was the time, and I haven't been hospitalized since then." ”

Mrs. Ao Ping laughed and said, "I was scared half to death once, and I got it a few more times." Then he frowned and said, "By the way, from what you just said, something seems to have happened to your sister?"

"She's missing, too," said Eiyu Hondo, gloomily, "I used to send money every month, but suddenly it wasn't, and then I came to her, I thought she was working as a nurse in a hospital in Tokyo, but I couldn't find her anywhere." ”

Mrs. Opin said with concern: "Ah, how is your life now? ”

"No thanks. Hondo Yingyou smiled, "I'm doing well now, I don't lack living expenses, and the university tuition is enough." ”

Mrs. Ao Ping nodded and said, "Okay, since you insist, then I won't force it, but you have to leave your mobile phone number, and you can't contact it often." ”

"Hmm. "Eiyu Hondo was very impressed.

The phone number was left, and the three Maori retired and went to the backyard pool to see the scene.

A circular swimming pool, full of dead branches and leaves, had apparently not been cleaned for a long time, and the ladder to climb had broken.

Maori said: "Even the ladder is broken, and if you tie people up and throw them down, you will surely die." ”

Yamazaki said: "The question is when to move the hand, and whether this is the first scene. ”

"That's right, if you just tie up Brother Tsugo and throw him in the pool, he won't die immediately, but in the end he will actually be exhausted from the cold, and finally he can't stand. Hondo Yingyou gritted his teeth and said, "If that's the case, it would be too cruel." ”

"I see," Māori pondered, "then, the whole incident can be considered to be a crime committed by a house thief who should be involved in the crime, and the reason why there is no sign of invasion is that someone in the family opened the door of convenience." ”

Eiyu Hondo said: "If the first scene is Brother Gogo's bedroom, then if you want to subdue Brother Gogo silently and move it over, at least two people. ”

Maori pondered: "You can use medicine, that one strong man is enough, by the way, the housekeeper Segawa Qilang should be able to do it, yes, yes, the maid Tabata Kikudai drugged the person down, and the housekeeper Segawa Qilang carried the person." ”

Yamazaki said, "However, after taking the medicine, I don't know when people will wake up, you know, the time of death is between 9 and 10 o'clock in the evening. ”

Eiyu Hondo nodded, "And during this period, the housekeeper Segawa Kishiro and the maid Tabata Kikuyo have alibi, and the certifiers are still Mr. and Mrs. ”

Maori said angrily: "What's this, just set up a mechanism, such as drawing a board, and connect a long rope to the bathroom window in the living room, and put it outside, so that no one else can see it." ”

"At about nine o'clock in the evening, I pulled the rope in the bathroom of the living room and let Mr. Togo fall, and it was enough. ”

"Then come back at night to collect the tools of the crime, and when everything is in order, report the crime in the morning. ”

Hondo Yingyou praised: "It is worthy of being an uncle, it really makes sense." ”

"Of course. Mori smirked, "I'm Detective Mori Kogoro." ”

Next, Mori went to report the findings to Okuhira Kakuzo.

But Ohei Kakuzo was very puzzled about the drugging, because he had never heard the police talk about it.

So, Mori removed the drug again, and changed it to the housekeeper Kishiro Segawa and the maid Tabata Kikuyo worked together to subdue the deceased Okuhira Jigo.

Okuhira thought for a moment and accepted the statement, so he asked, "Detective Maori, do you have any evidence?"

"Uh, this ......"

This question stumped Maori, he was all conjecture, how could there be any evidence.

Okuhira Kakuzo also understands that this is a bit of a strong man's difficulty, after all, it has been more than a year since the incident.

Okuhira thought for a moment, made up his mind, and made a suggestion to Maori, "So, Detective Maori, do you think we are okay like this? Use me as bait and catch them." ”

"Huh?" all three Maori were surprised.

"There's really no other way," Okuhira said through gritted teeth, "I think they were originally going to attack me today, and they must have been ready, but I suddenly invited you here, Detective Maori, and disrupted their plans." ”

"If you're here, they won't choose to do it today, and if they don't do it today, they probably won't do it later, there's no way to catch them. ”

Maori frowned and said, "Mr. Oping, you want me to leave here and put you in danger alone? ”

Ohei Kakuzo said earnestly: "Detective Maori, I want to avenge my son, so please cooperate with me." ”

"But it's too dangerous. ”

"Mr. Maori!"

"It's, okay. ”

Looking at Okuhira Kakuzo's resolute gaze, Maori compromised.

Next, the rescue time and code were discussed.

Every fifteen minutes, Okuhira sends a text message to Maori, the text message is the code, and the words of each text message are different, all from a mystery novel - "The Murderer from Yellow Springs".

It means that Okuhei Tsugo, a person in Huangquan, set off this incident.

If there is a text message on time, it means that Ao Pingjiao is safe, if there is no text message, or there is an abnormal text message, it means that something happened to Ao Pingjiao.

"Well, I see," Maori advised, "Mr. Oping, please be safe. ”

Okuhira nodded, "I have three camcorders and four small recording devices, including a voice recorder, I will keep them at home, if something really happens, please Maori detective you must find them, there will be clues." ”

"I will, then, I'll take my leave. Maori said heavily.

Ao Pingjiao said in a deep voice: "I'll send you out, so that they all know that you are gone." Please, Mr. Maori!"......

Moments later, outside Oping's house.

Conan had been waiting for a long time, and if Lan hadn't been holding his hand, he would have found a place to climb in.

At this time, when they saw Maori and them come out, Hondo Yingyu was still holding a bag, and Conan's heart was itching.

It's just that Maori's face is very serious, and things don't seem to be going well, Conan can't help but ask at the door, so as not to be angered by Maori.

Lan asked for him, but Maori didn't say anything, and left first.

But when he turned the corner, Maori stopped, and looked around the corner at the Odairi house, "Okay, it's good to be here, if there is anything, it's okay." ”

Yamazaki said: "Uncle, I think you can say to the Twilight Police Department, borrow a hand, so that you can break in when the time comes, and at the same time, save yourself in case something happens, and the Twilight Police Department blames you." ”

"It's okay, you're staring here, I'll call. Mori gave his phone to Yamazaki and then borrowed Ran's phone.

"Hey, what the hell is going on?" Conan couldn't help himself.

"Come on, Bendo. Yamazaki laughed.

"Well, actually. "Hondo Eiyu briefly told about Okuhira Kengo's death and Okuhira Kakuzo's preparation as bait.

"I see. Conan was excited, and went to the side to ponder the whole thing.

Lan was a little curious about Hondo Yingyou's bag, "And what is this?"

"This is my mother's relic, ah, by the way," Eiyu Hondo showed his birth certificate, "I'm really blood type O." ”

Conan was taken aback and hurriedly came to confirm.

Lan noticed another, "Wow, Hondo, you were so cute when you were a kid." ”

"It's fine. "Eiyu Hondo is a little embarrassed.

Conan suddenly straightened his triangular eyes, this guy must have deliberately taken it out to show Lan. ……

Soon after, Mori returns, and Yamazaki hands him back his phone.

Ten minutes later, Officer Sato arrived in a car with Officer Takagi, without siren, quietly.

When Maori explained to them, a registered letter from the hospital was delivered to Ohiranjiao, and he came out to sign for it, and when he saw it, his face changed dramatically and he sat down. ……
