Xia Ye smiled slightly:

"This is the formal procedure for handling cases——

"Furthermore, judging from the current situation, the suspicion of our manager Matsumoto is quite high~"

"..."

Everyone sweated for him.

Manager Matsumoto was obviously not in a good mood right now, but he still dared to say that. How brave!

As for the parties involved——

Manager Matsumoto didn't react at all.

His fierce face remained expressionless.

Sayuri Matsumoto, who was leaning in his arms, had already understood what Xia Ye meant. She was originally in a complicated mood, but after listening to Xia Ye's words, she wanted to laugh, and even her melancholy mood was relieved a lot~

"actually--"

Conan still restrained himself, and after asking Xia Ye for instructions with his eyes, he said seriously:

"That capsule..."

"The capsule has been tested!"

Before Conan finished speaking, the forensic personnel submitted the report in time. Because they needed instruments, they were a little slow:

"At the same temperature as lemon tea, it takes 15 minutes for the surface of this capsule to melt, revealing the medicine inside!"

"Seven minutes?"

Upon hearing this result, the groom Toshihiko Takasugi, who had been silent until now, suddenly spoke:

"Then the suspect can't be me. It didn't take 15 minutes from the time I entered the locker room to the time I left!"

"..."

What Takasugi Toshihiko didn't expect was.

What he gained with his flawless deduction was not getting rid of suspicion, but instead getting a lot of strange looks.

This guy is too eager.

To be honest, many people did not suspect him at all. After all, killing a bride at a happy wedding banquet is rare in the crime city of Yoneka Town~

"Mr. Takasugi——"

Xia Ye had a joking smile on her face:

"Actually, you don't have to rush to deny it. We haven't finished talking yet. And - who said you have to wait for the capsule to melt before poisoning? Putting the capsule and poison together is a method that can disrupt the test results. The murderer will not think that only You only understand it yourself, right?”

"What do you mean?!"

Takasugi Toshihiko's face looked a little ugly.

He didn't notice that on the sofa over there, Sayuri Matsumoto's weak and pale face was completely disappointed. This ugly struggling look made some memories with childhood filters collapse and become no longer beautiful~

Sayuri Matsumoto smiled bitterly in her heart.

Sure enough, it’s just wishful thinking~

the other side.

Xia Ye glanced at Takasugi Toshihiko and spread his hands:

"Actually, we can narrow down the scope of suspects again. Miss Matsumoto knew that the lemon tea had been poisoned, but she still drank it without hesitation. Who among these people could make her do this?"

"hiss--!"

Such a straightforward reminder instantly focused most people's attention on the groom, Toshihiko Takasugi.

Of course, there were a few guys who remembered Xia Ye's words and looked at Manager Matsumoto——

Well, this kind of IQ.

Basically say goodbye to using your brain to handle cases~

"It's really you!"

Manager Matsumoto gently put his daughter on the sofa, walked quickly to Takasugi Toshihiko with his tall body like a wall, grabbed his collar and lifted him up, his face full of anger:

"Why do you do this to my daughter!?"

"Manager Matsumoto~"

Xia Ye said with a calm smile:

"We haven't found conclusive evidence yet. If you are preconceived like this, you will be gossiped about, and Mr. Takasugi will sue you for violent law enforcement!"

"no need!"

Takasugi Toshihiko suddenly relaxed, with a hint of pride at the corners of his mouth, and reached out to slap away Manager Matsumoto's arm, his eyes resentful:

"There is no reason! I just want you to taste the feeling of losing a loved one! You murderer!"

Once the resentment accumulated over the years was vented, Takasugi Toshihiko told a somewhat sad past event.

20 years ago.

Manager Matsumoto hunts for the fugitive.

The car driven by the fugitive panicked and hit Takasugi Toshihiko's mother. Manager Matsumoto did not notice that anyone was injured and just continued to chase the fugitive. As a result, Takasugi Toshihiko's mother died before being sent to the hospital in time.

Takasugi Toshihiko was later adopted by the Takasugi Group.

Many years later, he met Sayuri Matsumoto, so he approached her and planned to kill her so that Administrator Matsumoto could taste the feeling of losing a loved one~

This is what happened in this case.

"Well, there is no real empathy in this world, so I won't judge your act of revenge——"

Xia Ye looked calmly and said:

"But, I want to ask you, did you kill the prisoner who directly killed your mother?"

"what?"

Everyone was a little dumbfounded.

Even Takasugi Toshihiko, who had a wanton attitude after pleading guilty and was no longer afraid of anything, was stunned for a moment before he answered without knowing why:

"No--"

"Why not?"

Xia Ye narrowed her eyes slightly and said calmly:

"With the strength of the Takasugi Group, it should be no problem to investigate a person's information~"

"In 20 years, even if the prisoner committed murder and was released from prison, why not find him and kill him? After all, he is your real mother-killing enemy, the most direct kind!"

"I......"

Takasugi Toshihiko wanted to say something, but he opened his mouth but nothing came out.

Xia Ye is right. When it comes to the cause of his mother's death, the criminal who caused the accident is naturally the direct murderer, and the manager Matsumoto who "failed to save others" was at best derelict in his duties~

After all, the police in Neon have not written into the law the things that some people take for granted, such as "serving the people and ensuring the safety of the people first at all times."

A mere dereliction of duty.

The penalty points and bonuses for writing a review will be over~

"certainly--"

"It's human nature to express anger~"

Xia Ye chuckled and found a reason for Takasugi Toshihiko:

"As a child, you were shocked. It is reasonable to blame Administrator Matsumoto and ignore the real enemy."

"After all, delaying medical treatment was indeed the main reason for your mother's death - in this case, I can understand even if you want to kill Administrator Matsumoto~"

"Cough cough!"

Officer Memu coughed lightly.

Remind Xia Ye.

Manager Matsumoto is still here.

You really dare to say anything!

"but--"

Xia Ye's expression became serious:

"Every wrong has its owner, and every debt has its owner. Since you hate Manager Matsumoto, why not go ahead and kill him? After you succeed, even if you are caught, you can speak openly and openly to avenge your mother~"

"And now—"

"But you involved the innocent Miss Matsumoto!"

"I do not care!"

Takasugi Toshihiko blurted out.

There was only a trace of guilt on his originally handsome face, but instead it was filled with downright resentment.

"I actually don't care~"

Xia Ye shrugged slightly, with cold eyes:

"Actually, I don't need to say so many words to you, but without your attitude, I'm afraid some people would be stubborn~"

Takasugi Toshihiko looked at Sayuri Matsumoto subconsciously.

But she didn't pay attention here, but was talking to Xiaolan and Yuanzi who stayed by her side to take care of her.

"Take it away!"

Xia Ye waved his hand and closed the case directly.

Takasugi Toshihiko did not resist and allowed two Metropolitan Police officers to handcuff him and then walked out of the locker room.

From start to finish.
