In short, this baseball game lasted for half a day from start to finish. When it came to ten o'clock in the evening, everyone chatted for more than an hour after dinner before it ended.
During this time, Xiachuan also learned the reason why Yuanzi asked him to come over.
It turns out that the Suzuki family's modern art museum has been completed and will be exhibited in a few days.
Because the Egg of Memory is very precious, the Suzuki Group decided to invite Natsukawa and Kogoro Mori to participate.
The conditions offered by the Suzuki family for being responsible for the security of the Egg of Memories were very tempting, and there was no reason for Natsukawa and Maori Kogoro to refuse.
"Uncle Jiroji has received a letter of warning from Kaito Kidd today. I'll leave this matter to you two."
Suzuki Ayako stood up and bowed. Nothing could happen again this time. The series of events had a significant impact on the prestige of the Suzuki family, and their business had also been affected. If something went wrong again this time, many business competitors would probably take advantage of the situation.
Their Suzuki Group controls so many resources that some people have been eyeing them covetously.
"It's not a big problem. With me, Maori Kogoro, here, Kaito Kid can't cause any trouble!" Maori Kogoro laughed and put his arm around Natsukawa's shoulders: "If Natsukawa joins us, we can definitely bring Kaito Kid to justice and restore justice to the world."
"I don't know who it was last time that didn't even realize that President Suzuki was Kid in disguise, and he even chatted with him for a long time."
Conan grumbled quietly beside him.
If Uncle Maori could correct his lack of self-confidence, he might really become a famous detective.
"Bang~"
"Little boy, if you can't talk, go to bed."
Kogoro Mouri glanced at Conan sideways and said, "You're such an ungrateful person. You eat and live at my place, yet you say such things. You're such an ungrateful person."
"Okay, okay, with the famous detective like Mr. Maori here, I think Brother Suzuki can rest assured." Tetsuji Tozawa acted as a peacemaker and changed the subject with a smile: "Ayako's cooking skills are indeed extraordinary. Yuzo is so lucky to have found such a virtuous fiancée like you!"
Tetsuji Tozawa praised him again and wished his son could get married right there.
She is obviously the eldest daughter of a wealthy chaebol, and her cooking is so good, no one would believe that she is not virtuous.
"The TV show is over. I think it's time to go home and sleep."
Tetsuji Tozawa glanced at his watch. He was tired after watching TV all day. If his daughter-in-law had not been there, he would have left after dinner and would not have had to chat with the juniors for so long.
"So soon?" Suzuki Ayako glanced out the window. "It seems to be raining heavily. How about we go back later?"
It started raining outside just as dinner started.
The rain is heavy and it's obvious that it won't stop any time soon.
"It's okay. It's just across the street. I'm an old man, but I don't have as much energy as you young people."
Tetsuji Tozawa is already sixty years old and his physical condition is not as good as that of young people. Suzuki Ayako no longer tried to stop him and nodded in agreement.
"Shall I go and see you off?" said Tomizawa Yuzo.
"No, you should spend more time with Ayako instead of doing art. You stayed in the studio all afternoon and let Ayako prepare dinner by herself. Do you think this is reasonable?"
Tomizawa Tetsu was extremely angry. It was fine when his son didn't say anything, but he got angry when his son started talking.
"Listen carefully, give up painting as soon as possible and come back to work. I won't support you in the next art exhibition."
Tomizawa Yuzo obviously didn't like what he heard. The more he listened, the uglier his expression became, and in the end he just turned around and left.
"Yuzo, where are you going!?"
"Go to the studio." Tomizawa Yuzo left without looking back.
This is why he has only just introduced his father to his fiancée. This old guy is really rude in his words.
Regardless of whether there were outsiders or not, he showed no mercy when scolding his brothers.
"Hmph, don't worry about him. Let him think about it himself. He's already in his twenties. If he's still so immature, how will he get married in the future?"
"Okay, let's not talk about these disappointing things."
You also know that it's a spoiler?
Conan curled his lips. He hated people who arranged the future for others the most.
Tetsuji Tozawa stood up and prepared to leave, but at this moment, a flash of lightning suddenly flashed outside the window.
In less than two seconds, the rain suddenly increased in intensity, as if it was pouring down.
The vision was completely blurred by the rain, and visibility was no more than two meters.
Then there was a roar of thunder and the ornate chandelier above began to flicker.
"here we go again?"
Conan looked up.
The next moment, the whole room fell into darkness.
"Mr. Tomizawa, I'm afraid you'll have to stay here for a while."
The power outage was so sudden that Kogoro Maori had to suspect that it was related to the footprints found at noon.
"What's wrong?"
Tetsuji Tozawa had a question mark on his forehead.
"It should be caused by the thunder just now, right?" Suzuki Ayako was a little worried, "I'll go find some candles first."
This situation was very strange. Just as Kogoro Mouri was about to stop it, a woman's scream suddenly appeared in the sound of rain outside the window.
"Whose voice?"
In an instant, everyone's attention was focused on the three girls in the living room.
Conan took out a watch-shaped flashlight and shone it around to confirm that the three were there, then he showed a surprised expression.
"Are there any women here?"
Natsukawa looked at Tetsuji Tozawa, as if asking if that voice was your mistress.
"Ahem." Tetsuji Tozawa bent his hands forward and shook his head frantically: "Impossible, besides us, the only one here who just left is... Yuzo. But he is a man!"
"Yuzo!!!"
Suzuki Ayako's eyes widened suddenly. The voice was definitely not from her fiancé, but he had just walked out, so the voice might be related to him.
Suzuki Sonoko grabbed her sister who was about to go out and said, "It's too dangerous. Let's wait for the call."
"But......"
"Xiachuan and I will go out and take a look."
Kogoro Mouri glanced at Xiaolan and signaled her to take care of the people in the room.
"I'll go as well."
Conan followed the two out.
The villa was located in a remote area. There was no light at all after the power outage. Even the moonlight was obscured by dark clouds. They could only search by feel.
It was raining heavily, and visibility was affected, making it very difficult to find people.
Fortunately, Conan has a watch-shaped searchlight.
"it's here."
Conan soon found a woman in the open space between the two villas.
The woman, dressed in black, was lying sideways in a puddle, her blood and rain mixed together, staining the ground red.
Her eyes were wide open, and the wound on her forehead was still oozing blood, with a faint white object visible.
"The brains were all beaten out."
Xia Chuan frowned, took out a handkerchief and ruffled the dead man's hair, revealing his face.
"Do you know each other?"
He had been fishing the whole afternoon and had no idea what was going on, and he also didn't know whether the woman had come in the afternoon.
"never seen it."
"do not know."
Conan and Kogoro Mouri shook their heads at the same time.
"That's strange, but this outfit doesn't seem like that of a good person."
Logically speaking, the person who died at this time should be Tetsuji Tozawa.
It would have been fine if the other person wasn't dead, but how come there was also a female death?
"Damn, the plot has changed again..."
Xia Chuan rubbed his eyebrows, feeling helpless.
(There is another chapter at 6pm)
Chapter 280: Manslaughter 2 ( reads per day)
Dressed in black, he looked like a burglar.
But this woman is obviously a beauty. No matter how poor she is, she wouldn't become a thief, right?
Can't I just sell it? Is it because he is a person who is poor but has high aspirations?
The deceased's arms looked slender and white, and he seemed to be holding something before his death, with his fingers in a clenched position at this time.
The heavy rain and the occasional lightning that illuminated the rainy night made the dead man's terrified expression seem somewhat terrifying.
"She was obviously crushed to death. When she died, everyone was together except Tomizawa Yuzo. The murderer can only be Tomizawa Yuzo." Kogoro Mori made a conclusion.
"Uncle Maori, have you forgotten the footprints we saw at noon?"
"Hmm? -- Possibly, but where was he hiding in the afternoon?"
"There are footprints here."
Xia Chuan pointed at the footprints that had turned into a small puddle on the ground and said, "Looking at the size, they should be the same as the footprints I found by the window at noon."
Following the direction of the footprints, it was the Tozawa family.
"Is the murderer hiding in Toizawa's house?"
Conan suddenly had an idea: "Yes, Uncle Maori, it's not that we didn't find him before, but we didn't expect him to be hiding in the villa."
At that time, both of them regarded each other as an outsider. When the outsider was discovered peeping, the first thing he did was to leave the scene.
Unexpectedly, the murderer was hiding in the dark and in the villa of the Tozawa family.
Xiachuan and Mao Li nodded and walked towards the villa closely.
There were indeed several very obvious footprints left at the door of the Tozawa family's villa.
Judging from the muddy footprints, the murderer had just entered the house.
Xia Chuan walked forward and gently turned the door handle, only to find that the door was not locked.
Pushing open the door, under the light, the footprints continued to extend inside.
......
Time goes back to ten minutes ago.
Taichi Tozawa, Tetsuji Tozawa's eldest son, was standing in the corner of the Suzuki family's villa with an earphone in his ear.
The sound of conversation in the Suzuki family villa came through the headphones.
He had installed a bug in his father's watch and was eavesdropping on the conversation.
When I hear myself being scolded, I unconsciously clench my fists.
The reason for installing the bug is very simple.
Kill father!
The reason for the murder was not just what happened at noon but also what was said just now.
What made him make up his mind was that a few days ago, he learned from the publishing house the reason why his novel had not been accepted.
It turned out that his father had secretly contacted the owners of several publishing houses in Tokyo and asked them not to use his works.
Yes, it was my father’s work.
At first he thought it was because his work was not rigorous enough and not eye-catching enough, but in the end it turned out to be his father...
In addition, his living expenses were stopped a few months ago.
