Chapter 566: Very Reasonable
Crossing the park, Mao Li walked in front, leading everyone all the way to the third floor of Miss Fujimori's apartment.

As Mao Li leaned over to press the doorbell and waited for the door to open, Lu Ren, who was standing behind him, couldn't help but sigh.

As expected.

After taking multiple doses of physical enhancement drugs, Lu Ren's sense of smell was naturally greatly improved.

Now, he basically has the sharp sense of smell of a shark, just like what Kudo Shinichi boasted in the past, and can clearly smell the smell of blood.

Just like now, even through the door, the lingering smell of blood in the house is still extremely strong and clear to Lu Ren.

Unlike the fishy smell of sheep blood and the stinky smell of chicken blood, Lu Ren knew very well that the smell was the unique salty and fishy smell of human blood.

Is it another murder of passion?
The current boyfriend killed his current girlfriend and framed the murder on the ex-boyfriend.

This is probably the plot.

Correspondingly, Lu Ren also resolved his previous doubts.

No wonder Kogoro Mouri was unable to find this ex-boyfriend named Numata after a week of surveillance.

Perhaps there was no such person as Numata from the beginning. To be more precise, someone borrowed Numata's identity to do these illegal things.

Specifically, the current boyfriend Imaoka disguised himself as Numata to blackmail his girlfriend, Ms. Fujimori Asako.

As for the reason, it is also very common.

That is to induce Miss Asako to ask Kogoro Mori for help, and then let him serve as a witness.

When the police come to investigate the murder case here, there will be no need for Imaoka to give any additional hints, as Mori will directly lead the police's investigation to Numata.

It has to be said that when it comes to giving false testimony for others, Kogoro Mouri is a leader in every way.

Wait, that's not right either.

If Numata really exists, what should the police do if they find out that he has a clear alibi at the time of the crime?
But if this person never existed from the beginning and was just fictional, then Miss Asako's reason for asking Mori for help would be invalid.

Could it be that Numata has indeed been harassing Miss Asako during this period, and her current boyfriend Imaoka is just taking advantage of this?

Then the question comes back again, how can Imaoka be sure that Numata had no alibi during this period?
This logic doesn't make sense...

After all, Kogoro Mori has been summoned, so the criminals this time must at least be logically consistent, right?
Or is it that Imaoka is absolutely sure that the police will not be able to find Numata?

It's impossible that he also killed Numata. This motive doesn't make sense at all...

Just as Lu Ren was trying to figure out the murderer's intention, a burst of hurried footsteps suddenly came from far away in the house, and the next moment, the door was suddenly pushed open from the inside.

Suddenly appearing in front of everyone was a middle-aged woman with a pale face and a hairband.

Seeing her covered in blood, Mao Li was horrified, "What happened, Miss Asako?!"

The middle-aged woman clenched her hands and crossed them over her chest. "A man suddenly broke in from the balcony, and I..."

Before she finished her words, she staggered and fell forward in pain. Maori quickly reached out to support her, and Conan rushed into the house.

Lu Ren did not follow him into the house, but instead looked down at Fujimori Asako who was leaning in Maori's arms.

His face was pale, his heartbeat was weaker and slower than that of normal people, and his beat was extremely irregular.

It is basically impossible to act like this. Asako Fujimori is indeed ill, and it is a serious heart disease.

The only question is, if she wasn't the one who died, then who was the source of the bloody smell in the house?

……

All of Lu Ren's previous speculations were based on the premise that her current boyfriend Imaoka killed Fujimori Asako. On the way here, Lu Ren simply checked the information.

Jiro Imaoka of the Strawberry duo is 28 years old this year and has been in the industry for ten years.

Asako Fujimori, who is 37 years old this year, has been in the industry for a longer time.

The two are nearly ten years apart in age.

On the one hand, age causes conflicts, and on the other hand, it is the difference in appearance.

Jiro Imaoka is handsome and dignified. Asako Fujimori looks, well... very much like what we think of a comedian.

There are many similar arguments on the Internet, saying that Imaoka should get rid of Fujimori as soon as possible and stop wasting his youth on such an old woman. He should disband the Strawberry Duo and go solo instead of letting Fujimori continue to hold him back.

If Imaoka had paid any attention to what the outside world thought of him, he would have known about this.

In any case, Imaoka's motive for murder was sufficient.

But the problem now is that Fujimori Asako is still alive, and the blood on her body is obviously from someone else.

Could it be that Imaoka failed and was killed by Fujimori?
But is this really possible?

A young man in his prime attacked a middle-aged woman in her forties who suffered from heart disease, and he did it unintentionally. How could he be killed by the latter?

This doesn't make sense no matter how you think about it.

Or was it the woman who was kneeling on the ground right now who had the real intention to kill and took action?

Jiro Imaoka's motive for murder was to completely get rid of Asako Fujimori.

Asako Fujimori's motive was that she was unwilling to be gotten rid of, but she was unable to keep him. She turned love into hate, and finally killed Jiro Imaoka.

If this is the case, the previous contradictions have a reasonable explanation.

The ex-boyfriend Numata may or may not exist, and neither is important.

Asako Fujimori's intention was not to divert the police's investigation to Numata.

She just wanted to create an illusion, making the police think that she mistook Imaoka, who broke in from the balcony, for Numata, and in panic she fought back with a knife, accidentally stabbing Imaoka to death.

You have to know that burglary and robbery are felonies. Even if there is no castle self-defense law like in the United States, if Fujimori's self-defense behavior is brought to court, the judge will also determine the sentence based on the actual circumstances.

If you are lucky, you will be given a suspended sentence and won't have to go to jail.

It's a good plan.

As for how Fujimori mistook her current boyfriend for her ex-boyfriend, there should be a reasonable explanation in the room now.

With Lan's help, Fujimori Asako's condition gradually stabilized after taking the medicine. Lu Ren took out his mobile phone, walked past a few people, and walked into the house.

Walking through the entrance hall and all the way to the source of the smell of blood, a man was lying straight on the floor of the living room, and Conan was standing in front of him.

The footsteps behind him did not make Conan turn around. He remained where he was. When the footsteps stopped, he pointed at the corpse on the ground and whispered, "Zombie."

"Fuck you." Lu Ren tapped Conan on the head, "Speak properly."

"Oh, the deceased is a man wearing a zombie mask. His identity is still unknown."

Just as Conan said, the deceased's head was covered with a fully enclosed zombie mask, which was very realistic in workmanship. It looked very disgusting at first glance, and even more disgusting upon closer inspection.

Lu Ren chuckled.

"I see. You're wearing a mask? That makes sense that you can't recognize me."
