"I felt hungry, so I went to eat with Doctor, Mitsuhiko, and Ayumi first. Uncle Maori and Conan accompanied them to visit the grave." Yuantai said, his eyes staring straight at the table in front of Chi Feichi.
on the box.
"The secret of St. John's wort?" Tsurumi Yezi couldn't help but look at Chi Feichi, "Aren't they going to visit Elizabeth's grave? In the past two days, it seems that many young girls among the tourists have gone to visit Elizabeth.
Elizabeth gave a bouquet."
"Eighty percent yes."
Chi Feichi reached for a pair of disposable chopsticks and handed them to Yuantai.
Yuantai instantly felt that Chi Feichi's cold expression was extremely friendly, and he took the chopsticks with a smile, "Thank you, brother Chi, but I just finished my lunch, so I only want to taste a little bit!"
"You didn't know you just had lunch." Mitsuhiko said speechlessly.
Ayumi smiled awkwardly and said, "But Yuantai took the initiative to say that he only tasted a little bit, which is already very rare..."
"It's really strange," Dr. Ali returned to the previous topic with a confused look on his face, "Is the cemetery they are going to go far away? We finished our meal at the Chinese restaurant and waited for them for a while, but they never went back.
Find us..."
"Besides, Haibara and Conan's detective armbands can't be contacted," Mitsuhiko said worriedly, "Is something wrong?"
Ayumi became nervous, "No, it can't be..."
"Dong dong dong!"
The herbal medicine shop has been closed for the past two days, and there was a sudden knock on the door that had been closed.
"Wait a moment, come right away!"
Tsurumi Yezi put down his chopsticks, stood up and opened the door.
As soon as the door opened, Chi Feichi heard a familiar voice.
"Hello, are you Crane... What a great beauty!"
At the door, Mouri Kogoro stared straight at Tsurumi Yoko, who had a beautiful face, which made Tsurumi Yoko feel uncomfortable for a while.
"Ms. Tsurumi," Isao Sakuragi accompanied him and introduced him with a kind and kind expression, "This is the famous detective Mr. Mouri Kogoro. We happened to meet him at the door. I heard that he has something very important to ask you."
Mouri Kogoro smiled like an idiot and nodded repeatedly, "Yes, there is something very important! Miss Tsurumi, do you mind if we go in and sit for a while?"
Genta walked out from behind Tsurumi Yoko and glanced at Mouri Kogoro with contempt, "That's too bad!"
"Genta, Genta?" Conan looked at Genta in surprise, then looked into the room, trying to find Dr. Agasa, Mitsuhiko, and Ayumi.
These three people all took the initiative to come to the door, and they could see it without much searching, but...
The person sitting on the sofa over there, holding a disposable lunch box in his hand, looking over with a cold expression, who else could it be if it wasn't Chi Feichi?
"Kid? Doctor?" Mouri Kogoro didn't even bother to stare at Tsurumi Yezi, his eyes swept across the room, "Is there Feichi? You're here too!"
After Tsurumi Yezi reacted, he invited a group of people into the house and went to the next room to make tea.
Koshimizu Nanatsuki sat next to Chi Feichi who was eating noodles with his head down, his eyes following Tsurumi Ye Zi's back, a little absent-mindedly.
She is indeed a very beautiful girl, and she looks elegant and feminine in a long dress of a solemn color.
The point is, my relationship with Brother Xiaoqi is unclear...
"Speaking of which, Doctor, why are you here? And Fei Chi..." Mouri Kogoro sat on the sofa, turned his head to look at his apprentice who was eating noodles, and was suddenly stunned.
Conan felt strange, and when he approached Chi Feichi, he couldn't help but be stunned.
There was a smell on Chi Feichi that they had smelled before, the kind that was smelled at the crime scene, the kind of slightly sweet floral fragrance...
"What's wrong?" Dr. Ali asked in confusion when he saw that the three people reacted incorrectly.
Maori Kogoro looked at Sakuragi Gong and Mao Lilan, who were also looking over curiously. He quickly straightened his expression, looked at Chi Feichi and asked, "Feichi, I want to ask, between ten and twelve o'clock this morning
During this time, where were you? What were you doing?"
Koshizui Nanatsuki turned his head to look at Mouri Kogoro in surprise. When he turned his head, he also smelled the scent of Chi Feichi.
Chi Feichi temporarily put down the lunch box, "I arrived at the herbal medicine garden around ten o'clock in the morning, and I stayed in the depths of the herbal medicine garden, lying on a deck chair and taking a nap."
"Have you been at the herbal medicine shop?" Mouri Kogoro breathed a sigh of relief, "Then Miss Tsurumi should help you prove it, right?"
Dr. Ali and the three children looked at each other, as if they were hesitant to speak.
Conan noticed something was wrong and asked aloud, "Doctor, what's wrong with you?"
"Well..." Dr. Ali scratched his head in embarrassment, "I don't know why you asked Fei Chi this question, but..."
"We met Sister Tsurumi in Chinatown." Mitsuhiko said hesitantly.
Ayumi looked at the gauze on Genta's knee, "Because Genta fell and bruised his knee, sister Tsurumi took us to the herbal medicine shop to bandage it."
Conan looked at Tsurumi Yezi who poked his head out of the tea room and asked repeatedly, "Miss Tsurumi, didn't you and Brother Chi stay together before? When did you leave the herbal medicine shop? Was Brother Chi still here at that time?"
"Ah?" Tsurumi Zizi was confused, but still recalled, "Before Mr. Chi came, I was sorting out the accounts alone in the living room. When he came here, he always went to the herbal garden, so I didn't entertain him much and told him
After I took the deck chair back into the house yesterday, I continued to sort out the accounts here. At about 10:30 in the morning, I went to the herbal garden and wanted to ask Mr. Chi what he wanted to eat, but he seemed to be asleep, and I didn't
I stepped forward to disturb him and went to China Street to buy food, so before I left, he was still in the herbal garden..."
"When you come back?" Conan asked again, "What time is it?"
"Because there have been a lot of tourists traveling recently, and the Chinese restaurant is very popular, I spent a little more time waiting in line. When I was about to come back, I met my children and was delayed for a long time on the way. When I came back here, I was worried about Chi Chi
Sir, you waited too long and looked at the clock." Tsurumi Yezi looked at the clock on the wall. "That time should be 12:13 noon. Well... what's the problem with the time I left the herbal medicine shop and the time I came back?
?"
"It's okay for you. After you go out, your neighbors, passers-by, restaurant employees and doctors can all prove what you were doing during this time." Chi Feichi picked up the lunch box again, lowered his head to eat the noodles, and gave it to himself
I analyzed it myself and said, "The teacher was asking about my alibi. It should be what happened. The suspect may have committed the crime between 10 and 12 o'clock in the morning. No one can prove that I was between 10:30 and 10."
I stayed in the herbal medicine shop until two o'clock."
Mouri Kogoro nodded and said seriously, "In fact, Mr. Toda Jiro, who opened Egamihara Elementary School, was found dead in the underground audio-visual room around 12:30 this afternoon. The time of death as determined by the police was,
It was around 11 o'clock in the morning..."
Conan looked at Mouri Kogoro and reminded, "Miss Tsurumi went out at half past ten. When she went out, she confirmed that Brother Chi was still in the herbal garden. Although it took half an hour, if the speed was faster, it would be from here.
We rushed to Egamihara Elementary School, but we didn’t have enough time to fill the basement with water, right?”
"Unless Mr. Chi can use magic to create a lot of water at once..." Koshizui Nanatsuki said, putting his head close to Chi Feichi's shoulder, twitching his nose and smelling it, "However, he did have the odor at the crime scene.
The smell I got was more than just a little bit."
"Huh?" Mao Lilan also stood up and walked forward, sniffing next to Chi Feichi, "It's true, it has the same light and sweet floral fragrance!"
Tsurumi Yezi's face changed slightly, and he didn't even notice Haihara Ai walking beside him.
"Miss Tsurumi also has it..." Haibara Ai went to Tsurumi's leaf and smelled it, thinking, "Didn't Miss Xiaolan say before that it should be the smell of some kind of herbal medicine? So I think, then
Could it be the smell of some kind of herbal ointment from the herbal shop?"
"The murderer who killed Mr. Toda may have suffered from some kind of disease. He went to the herbal medicine shop to buy that ointment. When he went to the underground audio-visual room to commit the murder, he rubbed the ointment somewhere, and the smell stayed there.
"There," Kogoro Mouri took the words and analyzed them, nodding repeatedly, "Yes, that's it! Because the audio-visual room is a closed space, the smell stayed there and did not dissipate until the body was discovered."
"But why isn't there that smell in the corridor on the underground floor?" Koshimizu Nanatsuki asked, "The air circulation there is not very good. If the smell of the murderer is enough to stay in the room, it should also be in the corridor.
Is there some leftover?"
"It must be because the murderer did not rub the ointment somewhere in the corridor, there is just a slight residual smell," Mouri Kogoro said confidently, "When the body was discovered, there were many rescuers and police walking through the corridor.
Too many odors mixed in dilute the smell to the point where humans can't smell it."
Koshizu Nanatsuki: "..."
It makes sense, but now everything is still conjecture, including the fact that it is the smell of ointment. Mr. Mori doesn't need to make such a firm decision, "That's it," right?
Conan didn't want to argue with Mouri Kogoro. When it came to the ointment, he remembered it. He had indeed smelled that aroma before, and it was in the real medicinal wine that Chi Feichi gave to Kyogoku. "Brother Chi, you should know that it is
What's the smell? It's a floral scent with a light sweet smell, a bit like the smell of grapes in fruits. In the past, after you had a fight with Mr. Kyogoku, the medicinal wine you gave him had that smell in addition to the herbal smell. It's just that we
The smell I smelled in the underground audio-visual room has no other herbal smell, just that..."
"Sorry, we don't have ointment with that smell here."
Tsurumi Yezi interrupted. Although the emotion conveyed in his voice was not strong, he was obviously unwilling to mention it further.
At this time, not only did Conan feel that Tsurumi Yezi was overreacting, but others also cast inquiring glances at Tsurumi Yezi.
Tsurumi Yezi took a long breath and frowned with confusion in his eyes, "I think it should be some kind of similar floral scent. You smelled it wrong. Many floral scents are similar, aren't they?"
"Well," Mouri Kogoro was startled, "That's what I said, but..."
"Miss Tsurumi, you don't think Elizabeth is resurrected to harm people, do you?" Chi Feichi asked calmly.
"No! Elizabeth had been helping people in Jiang Shenyuan during her lifetime, how could she do something to hurt everyone?" Tsurumi Yezi immediately retorted, and soon frowned and hesitated again.
"Does Miss Tsurumi have anything to hide?" Mouri Kogoro asked proactively, but looked at Chi Feichi.
His disciple should know the seriousness and wouldn't hide it at this time.
