13 Champagne
"Huh? What's up? ”
There is a way that Kiko has some doubts.
"One thing that can affect Miss Yamabara's career."
Gao Yuan explained, "After all, an idol artist who used to have frequent activities, now even the makeup artist is hired from an external studio to substitute for the class, no matter how you look at it, it's not normal." ”
"You're saying that Miss Yamabara has been able to get very few events lately?"
Yukiko understood what Takato meant.
"Yes. If I'm not mistaken, Miss Yamahara probably only has the spokesperson of Fusha Painting in her hands now, so she can't let go of this opportunity no matter what. That, there is Kiko...... Sister, did you find anything over there? ”
Takato asked about Yukiko, planning to synthesize the information.
"Well, because Miss Yamabara is right on the side, I haven't been able to ask anything useful from Ashiri for a long time. But if I have to say, there is one thing I think the threatening letter should have been just a prank by someone. ”
Yukiko said this, which made Gao Yuan a little puzzled, "Why do you think so?" ”
"If I have to say it, I think it's intuition."
Yukiko said.
"Did Lady Ashi say something?"
"It's just that since Miss Yamahara became the spokesperson of 'Fusa-e', from time to time, I have often received such threatening letters, but nothing strange has happened afterwards. Also, I guessed who sent the threatening letter. ”
As she spoke, Yukiko showed a hearty smile and looked at Takato proudly.
"Huh?"
Gao Yuan was a little surprised.
"How? Would you like to ask me how I saw it? ”
Yukiko narrowed her eyes, smiling and waiting for Takato to ask.
"Uh...... Tell me, Sister Kiko! ”
Struggling, Takato asked in a tone that could satisfy Kiko's desire to express himself at the moment.
"Ahh Did you know that on that letterhead, there was a faint smell of cheap tobacco? ”
seemed to be very satisfied with Gao Yuan's response, and Yukiko immediately gave an answer, but Gao Yuan still looked puzzled, and couldn't help but tease.
"Ah, Mr. Detective didn't find out?"
Gao Yuan could only helplessly express that he didn't understand, so Yukiko laughed and said, "It seems that little Gao Yuan's experience is still too little." As far as the young man we met at the door, he smelled of tobacco on his body! ”
For this answer, Gao Yuan could only express his helplessness, because he had never been in close contact with the man named "Dashan", how could he notice this.
"In other words, it is possible that the person sent the threatening letter?"
"That's right. Moreover, the date of receiving the threatening letter this time was before the announcement of the new product meeting, and the only person who could learn the news in advance and send the threatening letter was the relevant staff. ”
Yukiko added.
"That makes sense."
Gao Yuan thought about it and said, but- is this really that simple?
Last night, Gao Yuan deliberately investigated the information about Yamahara Autumn Evening on the Internet, although he couldn't find any negative news, but one thing is that the exposure of Yamahara Autumn Evening has dropped significantly in the past six months, which can be explained by his judgment through makeup artists, and does this have anything to do with the recent threatening letters?
At the same time, Masami Hirota and the girl with short brown hair, the two of them who had just finished shopping, were carrying large bags of items, and came to the booth of this "Fusha Painting" new product sales fair, and saw that there were already many people at the moment, so the two walked up quickly and grabbed two seats in the fourth row.
At this moment, it is almost ten o'clock, and there are already news reporters from several fashion magazines on the side, holding cameras, waiting to take first-hand information.
Looking at the people slowly crowded around at the moment, Masami Hirota exclaimed: "Fortunately, we grabbed the position, if we were a little late, we would have to stand outside." ”
"It doesn't matter, as long as you can buy a new bag anyway."
The girl with short brown hair said.
"Rest assured. Although there are so many people on site, there are not many people who will actually buy it. ”
Masami Hirota said.
At this time, at ten o'clock, the new product will begin, Horiyosuke as the person in charge of the event first came to the stage, took the microphone and began to make a brief introduction to the product, and explained that when the store opens, you can go in to buy the latest products, and then call on the crowd on the scene, with grand applause, there is a brand spokesperson Miss Yamahara Akiyu to give a detailed explanation of the product.
In the audience, the brown-haired girl was not interested in hearing the name of Yamahara Qiuxi.
"Why hasn't 'Fusha Painting' replaced this spokesperson?"
Grumbling, the girl said.
"What's wrong?"
Masami Hirota asked puzzled.
"After all, they have all been exposed to scandals of inappropriate private lives."
Expressionless, the girl said.
"Shiho, what messy fashion magazines are you reading again? Just listen to this kind of gossip. ”
Masami Hirota said helplessly.
The girl didn't continue, but she still murmured in her heart: Although someone helped her suppress the news, her sharp reduction in business orders in the past six months is very revealing.
On stage, Akiyu Yamahara was introducing the design concept of the new "Fusa-e" product, explaining how the designers were inspired by champagne and the design concept of the entire new series.
Then, under the chairmanship of Ryosuke Hori, several more audience members were called up to share their views on the new product, and at the end, Ryosuke Horisuke proposed that everyone drink a glass of champagne together.
So, the young man named "Dashan", under the instruction, walked up to the booth with a silver round tray on the tray, on which there were about five glasses of champagne, and the wine glasses were placed in no order.
Several people at the booth each took a cup, and under the command of Ryosuke Hori, several people drank it at the same time.
Yamahara Akiyu did not finish the wine in the wine glass, and after drinking about a third of the amount, he walked a few steps, stood in the most conspicuous position of the booth, put on a good-looking pose, and began to make a summary of the exhibition.
Suddenly, the wine glass slipped from Yamahara Qiuxi's hand, fell to the booth, and shattered, and then Yamahara Qiuxi's whole person suddenly fell to the ground, as if he struggled a few times, and then there was no movement.
For a moment, the scene fell into a panic. Several visitors at the booth who were called up were all frightened at the moment, looking at the wine glasses in their hands, and stood on the spot.
And Daiyama, who came up with the wine, was at a loss at the moment, only Ryosuke Hori quickly recovered from the shock, so that everyone at the scene should not panic.
It's just that after the reporters at the scene saw this scene happening, they began to shoot at the booth continuously.
Seeing this scene, Gao Yuan and Yukiko immediately rushed to the stage.
Takato checks on Yamabara Akiyu, while Arikiko maintains order at the scene and tells Ryosuke Hori to call the police quickly.
Offstage, the girl with short brown hair shook her head helplessly when she saw the man in a blue windbreaker who rushed to the stage, and after probing Yamahara Qiuxi's pulse, she understood that Yamabara Qiuxi was really dead.
For such a result, the girl showed a solemn expression - the time from her drinking champagne to death is not long, and it takes time for ordinary poisons to enter the blood circulation, but if it is replaced with cyanide, the attack time is too long.
Moreover, it was clear that she just chose a cup at random!
