Chapter 292: The Tragedy That Happened in the Dining Room 4
In the Juewei hot pot restaurant, a wonderful reasoning is slowly unfolding.
I saw Conan, who was hiding behind the sofa, and began to say in the tone of Maori Kogoro: "First of all, theoretically. The other party is indeed very suspicious. Moreover, we found a bottle of blood pressure medication from him. It seems to prove this. However, you have forgotten an important question. That's what you look like when you look at him. Do you look like someone with high blood pressure? We can measure his blood pressure to know if he is a patient with high blood pressure. β
Just as he finished saying this, Taro Saijo, who had been silent, seemed to have something wrong on his face.
Naturally, this situation was discovered by the attentive Conan.
"Why, that gentleman in a white suit. Why are you starting to tremble? β
Taro Saijo retorted with a calm pretense, "Why am I shaking?" I'm doing the right thing. Naturally, I am not afraid that you will examine me. β
"Is that so? Mr. Taro Saijo. When the deceased quarreled with Ms. Inoue Gardenia just now, others were consciously or unintentionally persuading. And your expression is like a gloating one! You explain this way! β
Taro Saijo had nothing to say.
Immediately after, the results of measuring Jiro Mizuo's blood pressure also came out. That is, his blood pressure is normal and he does not need to carry blood pressure medication.
"Mr. Taro Saijo, do you need to measure your blood pressure?"
Taro Saijo reluctantly said yes.
As a result, Taro Saijo's blood pressure was also normal.
When he found out that his blood pressure was normal. He gasped and thought to himself, "I'm glad I didn't drink today." And I was taking blood pressure medication before I ate. β
Then, he pointed to Kogoro Maori and said, "How is it?" You don't have anything to say now. β
"yes, I don't think so. You don't drink a drop of alcohol today. β
Saijo Taro asked angrily, "Why do you think so?" I wasn't just now..."
"Yes! What if you were clinking glasses and drinking fruit beer! Fruit beer doesn't have a bit of alcohol! Even if there is. Conan, who had been watching you in the neighborhood just now, noticed that you didn't drink a sip of wine before clinking glasses with him. And, even after clinking glasses with him, you take a symbolic sip. If you think there's a problem, look at the wine in your glass. Isn't it still full? β
As a result, the wine in Taro Saijo's cup was indeed exactly the same as if he hadn't drunk it.
And they did order at least three bottles of orange-flavored fruit beer.
Taro Saijo then argued: "However, the physical evidence is with Jiro Mizuo. And the blood pressure medication I take is after meals. Once a day, so..."
"Really? Officer Takagi. Please check the purchase record of this medicine and the fingerprints of the plastic bottle to find out who has the problem. β
Jiro Mizuo suddenly remembered something. Quickly explained: "I said, how does it feel wrong. It felt like someone had something in my pocket. I was trying to persuade my brother at the time, so even though I wanted to see what was in my pocket afterwards, I was thwarted by Jiro Saijo for various reasons. Okay, Jiro Saijo, I'm kind enough to help you. But you..."
Jiro Saijo, who was exposed to the matter, had to reluctantly admit this fact.
It turned out that he was working with Gardenia Inoue's company at that time. Because Mizuo Ichiro told him that he had a better source of goods. Coupled with the fact that the price is cheap, he must have naturally given up his cooperation with Inoue Gardenia. He didn't know it at the time, but they had already separated.
Although, their collaboration was smooth sailing at first. However, things have changed since they split up completely. Mizuo Ichiro finished him with shoddy goods, causing him to lose a lot of money.
Of course, Ichiro Mizuo gave him some compensation though. But he himself is also thorough, and he has become a person who works for him in disguise.
Because, there is no source of his goods. Workers in their own factories don't have jobs. In the end, it can only go out of business.
The next thing happened was because Ichiro Mizuo told him that he had a business that made a fortune. It can make him earn back what he once lost.
I was naΓ―ve enough to think I could do it, so I invested a lot of money.
The result was nothing!
In order to be able to get some of the principal back. By the way, borrow some more money to ease the repayment period. I'm not going to invite him to dinner.
You know, when I was talking to him about slowing down the payment? Do you know what he said!
Officer Twilight is puzzled.
I saw Jiro Saijo shouting hysterically: "He told me that he never looked up to me." If it weren't for my company, it would have been his processing plant. He has already changed his partner! β
In the end, Jiro Saijo was taken away by the other party like this.
And so it seemed to be working out perfectly.
But is that really the case!
The next day.
When Mori Kogoro was sitting in his office and reading the newspaper boringly. Suddenly I receive a call from Officer Twilight.
"Hey, I'm Kogoro Maori. What the hell is going on. β
"Something is wrong! Gardenia Inoue was suddenly killed! β
"What! Where was he killed? β
In the apartment of the Inoue Gardenia family. Officer Twilight finds her at Gardenia Inoue's house for a long time.
Mori Kogoro, who rushed to the scene, asked anxiously, "What the hell is going on with this!" β
Officer Twilight replied confused, "I don't know what's going on." The phone was also reported by the resident cleaner who had the keys to her home. β
Next, he wears a white sweater. And the older woman came over.
She panicked and said, "I'm a long-time cleaner in her house. Logically speaking, today is just an ordinary day. But when I opened the door, I smelled a strong smell of gas. Then I hurriedly opened the window. Rushed to the kitchen. Lady Gardenia Inoue was found dead with a deep strangulation scar on her neck. At the time, her eyes were staring blankly at me. It really freaked me out! β
Mori Kogoro suddenly thought of something. He asked anxiously, "So, have you seen the man who often goes with her?" β
The cleaner replied, "I've seen him sometimes." But I didn't know him very well, and I didn't say a few words to him. Could it be that ..."
Look at the cleaner's surprised look. Officer Twilight nodded.
Then, he touched his chin with his right hand. He replied: "It seems that the man who was with the deceased is a serious suspect. Conan, haven't you seen him before, can you tell me what he looks like? β
Conan nodded. Said that I would cooperate with the investigation.
Then, a policewoman with a sketchpad walked up to Conan. Ask Conan what the man looks like.
Conan pondered and replied, "That person has a national character face." He has a delicate face, a slightly upturned nose, and is about the same size as Officer Takagi. And..."
Soon, arrest warrants for Taro Ito spread throughout Tokyo.
Let's talk about what Taro Ito is doing.
At this time, Taro Ito, who was hiding in a hotel in Kakudo Town, suddenly called a mysterious person!
"Hey, I did what you said. And I did what you asked me to do with that guy. So when will we meet. β
"Yes, that's good. Then your mission is over, and your use is gone! β
Seeing that the other party actually wants to abandon himself. He angrily threatened: "In my hands, there is a lot of evidence against you. If you dare to be unkind to me, then don't blame my men for showing no mercy! β
There was silence on the other side.
"Hey, hey, hey! You speak. Do you really want to pay your bills? β
"No, no, no, I didn't mean that. I mean, at the time of Jiro Saijo. You have a share too! β
When Jiro Saijo suddenly heard this, he suddenly fell silent. Logically speaking, only Yuriko Mizuo and Ichiro Mizuo know about this matter! How did he know about this, could it be that Yuriko Mizuo betrayed me?
"How. Don't talk, have you figured it out? Now there are two paths to choose from, you go and turn yourself in. Then everything will be over, and when the time comes, the benefits that should be given to you will not be less than a penny, besides, you know. Even if you don't admit it, if you let Inoue Gardenia find out about your secret cooperation with Mizuo Taro. Then you know what the consequences are. I'm just "helping" you in disguise! β
Taro Ito, who had lost his mind, shouted to the person on the phone, "You devil! Don't let me catch you. Otherwise, you're going to die ugly! β
"Are you threatening me?"
Taro Ito retorted: "I see you're threatening me!" I don't have any leverage from you! And you have evidence that I worked with Ichiro Mizuo to bring down Mr. Jiro Saijo! So, you're teetering on the brink of danger! There's no turning back for me. So, don't push me. β
The other party fell silent again.
However, Taro Ito didn't know that it was while he was talking to the mystery man. Nearby, I faintly heard the sound of a siren!
"I'm rubbing! You tm dare to play me! β
However, it was a "beep, beet, beet..."
Seeing that the other party was about to come, he quickly jumped out of the window in a panic.
Thankfully, he lives just three meters above the ground. There is also a large tree not far from the rear window, and the ground is also a soft lawn. Then, he hurried out of the place. Running down the street outside, I don't know where to go...
Officer Takagi based on an anonymous report. Found Taro Ito's hiding place. As a result, all you can find are messy beds, and open windows!
Officer Takagi grabbed his head with both hands and shouted angrily, "Let him run away again!" β
Officer Sato looked around. After tidying up his pink OL uniform, he comforted Officer Takagi: "I think the other party has a strong anti-reconnaissance ability." Plus, watching the TV still on proves that he hasn't gone far. However, the terrain here is complex and there are simply too many small alleys. I think the prisoner chose to come here because of this ease of escape. β
Officer Takagi asked Officer Sato, "So what are we going to do next?" β
Officer Sato closed his eyes for a moment. She said we could...
Who the hell is Taro Ito talking to. So who is the beneficiary and who is the victim of this incident ....
