Chapter 44: The Assassinated Kawaguchi Councilor
Inside the ballroom.
Conan continued to introduce Yuyuki Agasa: "You see that well-known expert, that is, a fat professor with short brown hair, his name is Yoshiharu Yu, and he has nothing to do with a big director. There is also the gray-haired, kind-looking old man, his name is Taro Kamiyama, and he is a famous car boss. He has nothing to do with a big director. ”
Finally, Conan changed his tune.
He said to Yuyuki Agasa, "Do you see the man in a black suit with short hair standing at the door, I think he is the target of the organization's elimination, Kawaguchi Councilor." ”
When Conan looked at Kawaguchi, explaining the unfavorable news about himself to the reporter next to him.
Officer Twilight, they came to the banquet hall.
When Officer Twilight came to the banquet hall scene.
Councilor Kawaguchi, who was standing at the door of the banquet hall, asked Officer Twilight with a surprised expression, "What are you doing here, are you..."
Knowing Kawaguchi's nervousness and confusion, Officer Twilight explained to him, "We have reported anonymously that someone may behave against you at tonight's memorial service. ”
Kawaguchi Councilor looked at the plainclothes policemen scattered around to "protect" themselves.
Unconsciously from the pocket of the suit.
Take out a white handkerchief and wipe the sweat from your forehead.
Officer Takagi, who was on the side, looked at Kawaguchi-sensan nervously.
I couldn't help but look confused and said, "Officer Twilight, why did you say that Senator Kawaguchi was so nervous when he saw us." ”
Officer Twilight scanned everyone in the banquet hall with a cautious gaze.
While explaining to Officer Takagi, he said, "Because there has been gossip recently, there is a rumor about some kind of scandal between Councilor Kawaguchi, and he seems to be suspected of accepting benefits from others, so I am naturally afraid that we will investigate him." ”
While Officer Twilight was talking to Officer Takagi.
Yuyuki Agasa said to Conan: "Do you think that guy really has a so-called scandal?" ”
Conan replied to Yuyuki Agasa speechlessly, "Is this important, and I wonder if this guy has something to do with the people of the organization, and..."
When Conan still wanted to say something.
The lights in the banquet hall suddenly dimmed.
Then I saw a spotlight and gathered on the podium of a man wearing square-framed glasses and a black suit, looking old.
"Everyone, be quiet, I'm the host of this memorial service for director Sakai, Naomi Maikura. Now I ask you to turn your attention to the big screen in the ballroom. I will show you a unique perspective that is different from director Sakai's life. ”
After the host Mai Cang finished speaking. Then he turned on the projection instrument.
As the host motioned to the assistant in the black shirt, turn on the projector.
On the big screen in front of the podium in the banquet hall, a photograph of director Sakai appeared during his lifetime.
When the host introduced Director Sakai in the photo, where he shot it and the background at that time.
Conan looked at the darkened space around him. Motioned for Yuyuki Agasa to be vigilant.
Prevent the other party from taking advantage of the dim environment to attack Kawaguchi Councilor.
Yuyuki Agasa, who heard Conan's warning, immediately said he understood.
However, he suddenly found that Councilor Kawaguchi, who was originally under the protection of the police, suddenly disappeared.
The first thing I found out was that Kawaguchi Councilor was missing the Twilight police officer.
Hurriedly motioned to Officer Takagi for them to look.
At the same time, Yuyuki Agasa saw Kawaguchi-chan disappear.
He said with a nervous expression: "It's not good that the murderer may use this dim environment to attack Kawaguchi Councilor." ”
After Yuyuki Agasa said it.
Conan immediately signaled, and Gray Plains stayed where he was.
Yuki Agasa is optimistic about Gray Plains, don't let the organization casually give Gray Plains Mourning...
He is to find and protect Kawaguchi, who is about to be assassinated.
When Conan was looking for Senator Kawaguchi.
Yuyuki Agasa also understood the meaning of the red handkerchief in his hand.
It turned out that the photo on the screen happened to be the recording site of the "Rainbow Handkerchief" movie.
And at that time, the location of the recording site happened to be hung with seven small handkerchiefs of different colors.
He originally thought it was on behalf of LG...
However, when Yuyuki Agasa continued to observe the surrounding scene, by the way, he protected the gray plain mourning standing beside him.
Yuyuki Asasa suddenly saw it, behind her.
A strange, strange flash of light.
Immediately after, Conan suddenly felt a murderous aura coming.
But Mai Cang, as the host, was still ridiculing the reporters holding cameras in the banquet hall.
Tell them that the camera in their hand may not be able to record the live scene in the banquet hall clearly.
After he finished speaking, Conan suddenly saw a reddish flame.
Hit directly, the chandelier in the center of the ballroom.
With the rapid fall of the chandelier.
Suddenly, the banquet hall rang out, and there was a sound of light bulbs breaking.
At the same time, at the top of Conan's head.
Suddenly fell on one side, a strange purple handkerchief.
When Conan wondered what was going on.
Yuyuki Asasa suddenly sensed that something was wrong.
So he immediately took the gray plain mourning and looked for Conan.
And in the banquet hall, look for Officer Twilight of Kawaguchi-sen.
I heard the sound of the chandelier shattering to the ground.
Immediately ordered the hotel attendant beside him.
Turn on all the lights in the ballroom.
With the waiter turned on, the banquet hall was after all the lights.
In the center of the ballroom.
Congressman Kawaguchi collapsed in a pool of blood.
And look at the chandelier pressed on the body.
Kawaguchi was apparently killed by a chandelier overhead.
Yuyuki Agasa, who was on the side, suddenly wondered why he disappeared from the police's sight and ran to the chandelier in the center of the banquet hall.
Then he was inexplicably crushed to death by the chandelier.
Conan looked at Kawaguchi-sen, who was lying on the ground with an obvious wound on the top of his head.
Angry thought to himself, "I didn't expect him to succeed." ”
Yuyuki Agasa looked at Conan, with an ugly expression.
He said comfortingly: "Now that the matter has come to this, it is too late to say anything." ”
Conan replied to Yuyuki Agasa, "I can't let those guys get rid of people so easily." ”
Gray Yuan looked at Conan's angry expression, and said mockingly: "Hehe, with your current strength, it's not bad if people don't take you away by the way, you still want to give them a good look, it's ridiculous." ”
Conan looked at Grayplain's mocking look.
Immediately said angrily: "You! ”
Yuyuki Agasa looked at the way they were about to quarrel.
Hurriedly stopped them.
When Yuyuki Asasa mediated, Conan and Gray Plains were torn apart.
At the corners of Belmode's mouth in the crowd, an intriguing smile appeared.
Then he pretended to be surprised and asked the person next to him, "What happened?" ”
The person next to him could only shake his head, indicating that he was not clear.
Kanda Taro, who was on the side, said helplessly: "I really didn't expect this kind of thing to happen." ”
Mika Nanjo, a female writer, looked at Congressman Kawaguchi who fell to the ground.
I couldn't help but say, "This can't be an accident." ”
Naoya Tarumi, who was next to the female writer, asked her rhetorically, "Do you think it really could be an accident?" Why did the dead guy walk up and be hit by the chandelier? ”
When Mika Nanjo wanted to say something.
Officer Twilight walked to the center of the crowd.
He signaled to everyone to be quiet, and said that he was in charge of investigating the case.
Soon, Officer Twilight begins to prepare for an investigation, and Kawaguchi Councillor, who is hit by a chandelier...
