Chapter 1086: Prelude to the School Trip
At night, Tokyo is lit up with neon, the atmosphere is peaceful, the sirens have subsided, and only a white figure flies by under the moon.
Kidd is active again......
Gao Cheng looked at the white in the distance, closed the curtains, and talked with his mobile phone: "Study trip? Are you going to Kyoto again? ”
"That's right," Sonoko said longingly, "I happened to have a cold last time and missed it, and the school trip happened to be sponsored by our Suzuki family, so of course I want to go to Kyoto, so A-Cheng should go with you, right?" ”
"Ahh
Gao Cheng was absent-mindedly thinking about the study trip.
He has been to Kyoto many times, and although he doesn't go to any tourist spots, it's a matter of whether he goes there or not.
The main thing is that the school trip of the garden seems to be involved in some incident.
I don't know the specific facts of the case, since it can leave an impression on him, it is obviously not an ordinary case, and he must go.
In fact, Okita invited him to Kyoto after the kendo tournament, and Izumi Shin High School happened to have a kendo training event, and Okita wanted him to participate.
The battle between Hattori and Okita has not followed, so maybe he can try it first.
After Goemon left Japan with Lupin III, he hadn't talked to anyone for a long time, and Onimaru Takeshi's side was also closed because of the incident in the gymnasium, saying that he wanted to continue his practice.
Modern society is not suitable for the ancient swordsmanship to improve between life and death battles, and the emergence of kendo competitions is a substitute, and you can also hone your swordsmanship under the right rules.
After drawing the kendo card this time, he can better practice through the kendo competition.
Okita's strength is indeed inferior to him, but he is very familiar with the swordsmanship of various schools, and his own talent is quite high.
……
On the other hand, the Maori Detective Agency, compared to Gao Cheng, Maori Kogoro has not been easy recently, and has been busy with the case of the affair investigation, and it is not easy to take a breath.
No way, the firm's financial problems are indeed very serious.
"Ah, my dad is back, let's talk later."
At noon that day, when Mori Kogoro returned to the office, his baby daughter seemed to be talking to someone on the phone.
That happy expression was all too familiar to him, it must have been that detective little ghost Kudo Shinichi.
"I'm so hungry," Kogoro Maori walked to the desk with a slumped face, "make me lunch......
"There's a cream soup I made in the kitchen, you can heat it up and eat it yourself," Xiaolan still had a smile on her face, and she was in a good mood, "I'm going to go out for a while, and I'll come back in the evening." ”
"Ah, okay."
Mori Kogoro's heart sank.
I don't know if it's just to follow up and investigate the cause of the affair, and I always feel that my daughter has a situation.
Humming a song, the pace is brisk...... That's right, it's definitely a date with that detective imp who hasn't been showing up lately.
"That guy, are you going to trick my daughter out of rhetoric?"
Maori Kogoro gritted his teeth for a while, and then without the slightest hesitation, he naturally took Conan to sneak up on his daughter.
After leaving the office, Xiaolan first went to the rice flower bookstore to buy a copy of the Kyoto Travel Guide, and then entered a trendy coffee shop.
Through the glass door, Xiaolan can be seen walking towards a separate table, where there is a teenager in a suit.
The uncle glared at the young man who was talking and laughing with Xiaolan.
"Detective Kid...... No, how do you look like a city boy?! ”
"Ugh." Conan pouted beside him.
He himself is here, and the one in the store is obviously the castle household...... No, Xiaolan came to date Chenghu?
Secretly sneaked into the corner of the coffee shop with the uncle, Conan looked closely at Xiaolan and Gao Cheng through the cover of the menu, his little face was completely wrinkled, and he was about to have a seizure, but he saw the garden and Shiliang Zhenchun also greeted and rushed over.
Didn't just ask Xiaolan?
"Let's talk about it first," Gao Cheng glanced at the sneaky Conan and Uncle, ignored the two guys, and just said to the garden, "I'm not familiar with Kyoto, so don't ask me for advice on your school trip." ”
"Really," said Sonoko, with a look of hatred for iron, "didn't I call you here because you've been to Kyoto many times?" ”
"I've been there, but I'm not necessarily familiar with it, and I've been investigating cases most of the time."
Gao Cheng coughed lightly and got up.
"I'm going to the bathroom."
In the corner, Conan quietly left his seat to keep up with Gao Cheng, and when he heard the words "school trip", Conan also reacted to what was going on.
Nothing else, but a few girls mentioned Okita again and seemed interested.
"You want an antidote to go on a school trip?" In the coffee shop bathroom, Gao Cheng was not surprised that Conan came up.
This guy has been thinking about the antidote, but Xiao Wai has not been able to make a real antidote, so he can't abuse it casually.
"Don't mess around, the cultivation trip is not just one day, and it is okay to meet in private, are you sure that you want to appear in public as Shinichi Kado? Maybe he will get involved in the case again and attract attention. ”
After Gao Cheng washed his hands, he took out a separately packaged antidote from his pocket.
"Take it, just a piece, if you just want to meet Xiaolan, you don't have to participate in a public study trip, just find an opportunity when the time comes."
Conan carefully put away the antidote, and looked at Gao Cheng unsatisfied: "You are too exaggerated, how can you run into the case so easily......"
"Ah——!h
A scream suddenly sounded in the store, and the atmosphere froze instantly, and soon the sound of hurried footsteps and shouts outside could be heard.
The screams in this world are the signal of the incident, and no one can ignore them, and Mori Kogoro, who was still in the restaurant in front, immediately followed the manager to the dressing room where the screams came.
"What's going on?!"
"More home, more home......"
In the changing room of the coffee shop, a waitress squatted at the door with a frightened face, and a male waiter inside sat on the edge of the cabinet and did not move, and a large vase with blood stained at the bottom was dumped beside him, and the water in the vase was running down the ground.
"There's no pulse anymore," Mori Kogoro pulled away the waitress who was in the way, looked at the corpse and shook his head, "Xiaolan, call the police immediately!" ”
"How so?" The store manager and a few people panicked, "Who killed the changer?" ”
"I don't know who it is, but he must be a man of great strength," Mori Kogoro said in a deep voice, "The prisoner must have killed him with this large vase...... Well, the locks on the locks in the lockers in the locker room are broken, and it looks like a thief. ”
As he spoke, the uncle probed the locker that had been turned over and asked, "Is there anything important in it?" ”
"I don't know, I installed a lock when I came here to work, and only he knows what he knows."
"In short, no matter how you look at it, it looks like a robber killing someone, and it just so happens that this is the back door......"
"It's murder no matter how you look at it."
Gao Cheng interrupted the uncle's conversation and leaned on the ground to look at the gap at the bottom of the cabinet.
"This victim, who is called Gengjia, has his clothes and elbows stained with ashes, and he has been lying on the ground looking for something...... There seems to be a pearl earring fixed to the ground under the cabinet with glue, and the prisoner must be the waitress who found the body......"
"What are you talking nonsense?" Uncle Maori snorted, "You can see clearly, the murder weapon is this big vase, even if there is no water, it is almost 30 kilograms, and if you add water, even I can only barely wield it...... Judging from the scene, it is obvious that the water was spilled after the killing......"
Gao Cheng looked at the scene, turned to the store manager and asked, "This big vase should be the same as the vase at the door of the restaurant, right?" ”
"Yes, yes," the store manager said stunned, "these two vases are usually decorated at the door, and I just saw that one was missing, so I asked Naomura to look for it." ”
The waitress nodded and said, "When I came to the locker room to look for it, I saw that the waiter had fallen here." ”
"Is there a thief who would carry such a heavy vase from the door to the locker room?"
Gao Cheng glanced at the waitress Naomura.
"So this scene is just a disguise, there is no need to wave the vase to kill people, it is enough to lift the vase and smash people, if the victim was lying on the ground looking for something at that time,
Moreover, there was not really water in the vase at the time of the crime, and it was completely possible to put the water and flowers in it afterwards......"
"I'm talking about the castle boy," Uncle Maori said with a dark face, "and if you say that, anyone can commit a crime, right?" Why do you just say that it is Miss Naomura? Besides, where does all this water come from? If you go to the kitchen or bathroom to fetch water, it's easy to get exposed, right? ”
"Because of this, of course."
Gao Cheng opened the waitress locker, revealing empty water bottles filled inside.
"If you go outside the locker room to get water, you will indeed be found, and these flowers also need to be kept in water so that they don't wilt, so you have to prepare these water bottles in advance.
In addition to that, the most obvious evidence is Miss Naomura's socks, which are too strange not to wear this season, so I took a closer look and found that Miss Naomura's black shoes and black pants seemed to have something on them. ”
Gao Cheng confronts the waitress.
"It's blood, right?"
