116 Wine tasting
"Then maybe Murakami not only wants to take revenge on Brother Maori, but also uses this incident to take revenge on other people who have a grudge against him!"
Officer Twilight listened to Kudo Shinichi's words, and since he still couldn't rule out Murakami's suspicion, he analyzed it like this.
Then, somewhat serious, Officer Twilight began to ask the crowd present:
"So for the sake of prudence, I would like to ask you a question, do you have anything to do with Murakami Sho?"
"How can I have anything to do with that kind of person!"
In this regard, hearing Officer Twilight ask this, Nana Koyamauchi immediately denied it angrily.
"I don't know him."
Waving his hand, Peter Ford also denied.
"I have a relationship with him."
However, when Nishina answered, he unexpectedly said this fact:
"Before I became an essay writer, I worked as a location reporter for a while, and I used to cover Murakami's case."
"That's right. Have you interviewed Murakami himself? ”
Hearing this, Officer Twilight couldn't help but ask.
"Not really."
Shaking his head, Minoru Nishina replied.
That's it, after the three of them answered like this, they saw that there was no result, but Nana Koyamauchi suddenly lowered her head at this time, as if she remembered something, and thought with a solemn expression-
"Miss Nana, what do you think?"
In this regard, noticing the change in Nana Koyamauchi's expression, Kudo Shinichi couldn't help but ask.
"That Murakami uncle you are talking about seems to have only been released from prison last week, right?"
Touching his chin with one hand, he asked thoughtfully.
"That's right."
Definitely, Officer Twilight replied.
"That'...... It's none of the business with me! ”
Receiving such an affirmative reply, Nana Koyamauchi seemed to be relieved and said frankly, and then at this time, Nana Koyamauchi saw that everyone present seemed to be attracted by her own attitude just now and felt strange, Nana Koyamauchi hurriedly pretended to be relaxed and said:
"Oh, why is everyone getting serious? Don't talk about this kind of bad luck! ”
"Miss Nana, did you encounter any strange things or people before last week?"
However, seeing that Nana Koyamauchi wanted to prevaricate the topic in the past, Wataru Takagi on the side suddenly asked out loud.
"Huh?"
Suddenly, being asked by Takagi Shibu, Nana Koyamauchi was suddenly stunned, and her expression was immediately a little weak-hearted, and she didn't dare to look at everyone directly-
"What were you worried about?"
In this regard, Kudo Shinichi on the side heard Takagi Shibu asking like this, Nana Koyamauchi showed such an expression, and immediately realized something, and immediately asked.
"I ...... I told you! I have nothing to do with him! ”
The tone was first weak, and then it was hard as if it were self-consoling.
"Miss Nana, we'll judge whether it matters or not, but please tell the truth."
Somewhat serious, listening to Nana Koyamauchi's attitude like an evasion, Officer Twilight couldn't help but persuade.
So, Nana Yamauchi, who was a little flustered, struggled in her heart for a while, but still reluctantly told the truth:
"One night three months ago, I was talking to my friend on the phone on the way home, but I encountered a red light, stepped on the brakes a little late, and as a result, the front of the car barely stopped beyond the sidewalk, but at that time, there happened to be a motorcycle in the right-hand lane because the lane on his side was green and drove quickly, so because I was frightened by the sudden poking out of the front of the car, I hurriedly turned, and suddenly did not control the motorcycle, and fell down!"
Saying this, Nana Koyamauchi became more and more excited the more she spoke, and in the end, her attitude was even more resolute and emphasized:
"Really! I didn't hit him at all! It was really he who fell! And it's also to blame him, it was he who drove so fast that he didn't grasp the direction! ”
"And after that? Did you check on the other person's condition? ”
Shinichi Kudo couldn't help but ask.
"Nope. I was so frightened that I saw no one around, so when the light came green, I drove away. However, he was wearing a full helmet, and I saw that he was getting up well after the fall, so it should be fine. And afterwards, no traffic police have looked for me, if there is really something, the other party thinks it is my responsibility, then how much should be called to the police, you say yes? ”
Nana Koyamauchi said as if she were comforting herself.
"Is he wearing a biker suit? What kind of motorcycle are you driving? ”
But in this regard, Wataru Takagi seemed to have a very clear and purposeful inquiry as if he had confirmed.
"Yes, he's wearing a biker suit. It was a regular motorcycle. ”
Nana Koyamauchi replied.
"From this point of view, this is very consistent with the information we have about the murderer driving a motorcycle, wearing a motorcycle suit and wearing a helmet......
In this regard, after this clue appeared, Officer Twilight couldn't help but say solemnly.
"But it's not uncommon for motorcyclists to wear biker suits and helmets, and there's no way to confirm the relationship between him and the killer. And Miss Nana also said that if the other party thinks that Miss Nana's responsibility caused him to fall, then he should also call the police to deal with it, otherwise, there are no witnesses at night, and the other party is unlikely to know that it was Miss Nana who was driving at the time! ”
Mori Kogoro couldn't help but analyze.
In this way, after hearing Maori Kogoro's analysis, Nana Koyamauchi seemed to agree with his point of view, and immediately took the case and said sharply:
"That's it! It's too much of a coincidence to be targeted by this kind of perverted murderer for some reason, right? Instead of doubting me, I should be suspicious of this guy who has some connection to the guy named Murakami......"
As he spoke, Nana Koyamauchi stretched out her hand and pointed to Minoru Nishina, who had just admitted that she knew Murakami Abbot-
"That's right! That's you, right? You're the one who wrote that bad book about Parisian restaurants, right? The restaurant you recommended in that book is really unpalatable! Have you ever been to that restaurant? It can't be that I took money from the store and deliberately helped them market! ”
"You're so rude!"
In this regard, being scolded by Nana Koyamauchi pointing at her nose like this, Minoru Nishina couldn't sit still for a while, and shot back sternly:
"Of course I've eaten those!"
"Then you have to come up with evidence!"
Seeing that the other party said nonsense without pain, Nana Oyamauchi couldn't help but smile contemptuously.
"Evidence?"
Puzzled, Nishina didn't understand what she was trying to say.
"That's right."
As he spoke, he saw Nana Koyamauchi take out a packaged gift box and explained:
"I brought a special gift to Mr. Shang today, now please guess what kind of bar this is!"
"So, you want me to taste the wine?"
Suddenly, hearing her say this, Minoru Nishina understood Nana Koyamauchi's intentions, asked rhetorically, and then responded without shirking:
"No problem!"
