His forehead twitched, he grabbed the spray bottle in Jiang Xia's hand, and threw it to the passing police: "Be careful about your image as a famous detective, and don't play with the evidence casually."
Jiang Xia: "..."
He suspected that his boss was using public money for personal gain, but he had no evidence...
…
"It's such a tragedy that a good banquet turned into this." Suzuki Sonoko sighed, followed the change of subject, and quickly became more arrogant, "But it's quite exciting. There is a kind of salvation.
Mass feeling!”
——Just now, she took advantage of the chaos and followed Jiang Xia to get a refrigeration spray bottle, went to the stage and squirted a few times, giving herself a strong sense of participation.
Conan is relatively low-key.
——Beside him was Toru Amuro, who was hard to see through. He was a little more restrained than usual.
The dinner ended early.
Suzuki Sonoko looked at Jiang Xia expectantly: "Let's go shopping nearby first, wait until the cooking class is over, and then come back to pick up Xiaolan? - The clothes in the mall next door are very - very beautiful!"
"..." Jiang Xia thought of the average shopping time she and Mao Lilan spent, and her movements froze slightly, not wanting to nod.
"Let's go." Toru Amuro passed by them at some point and raised his hand to press the elevator button, "There happens to be a bonsai exhibition on the north side of the first floor of that mall. If you are bored, you can go and pick up a few pots."
Now that the matter here has been resolved, Toru Amuro plans to go upstairs to the cooking classroom to check out the situation and meet the challenge that Usa may send.
In this case, the fewer innocent people in the building the better, lest they get involved in any dangerous situation.
Jiang Xia nodded thoughtfully: It’s really time to get some new potted plants. After raising a fake cat, a lot of the original ones were accidentally bitten off by it.
——Although the cat ghost is already a ghost, the nature of the cat is obviously still there. When I see a potted plant, I can't help but want to poop it a few times... Tsk, you shouldn't be fed disinfectant water and formalin-flavored murderous aura.
For Noah, some should be left and kneaded into cat food... Jiang Xia's eyes turned dark.
While I was thinking, the elevator arrived.
The four people were about to go in, but suddenly a group of policemen came and rumbled into the elevator.
"Jiang Xia? You haven't left yet." Sato Miwako turned around and saw him, and pulled him into the elevator in surprise, "Come here quickly, something happened upstairs!"
Toru Amuro: "...?"
…
Miwako Sato's voice came from the elevator going up.
"After we received the call just now, we sent a few people up in advance and learned some information - there is a French restaurant upstairs, and a gourmet named 'Michi Uemori' is holding a cooking class there tonight."
Sato Miwako briefly told them the currently known information:
"Not long ago, there was a sudden power outage on that floor. By the time the assistant in the cooking classroom found the flashlight and illuminated the area, Michi Uemori had already fallen to the ground in pain... She had been taken away by an ambulance just now.
I heard that there was a blood spot pricked by a needle on the upper right side of her back. It was probably a lung injury."
Toru Amuro looked up at the dancing digital screen in the elevator and sighed inwardly, feeling a little tired.
——When I went out with Jiang Xia, there were already a lot of murders. But during that time, most of the time we were just together for one day, and we were mainly tired of avoiding Jiang Xia's acquaintances.
And now, if President Shiraki and Hua Xiang's poisoning are counted separately, there have been four attacks in this small area today... far higher than the frequency of incidents in the past.
Toru Amuro wouldn't believe it if Uzo didn't steal anything behind this.
…
If Toru Amuro could hear his inner voice, another person dozens of meters away would probably run over to shake his hand and nod vigorously.
——Okiya Subaru had the exact same idea at this time.
…
a few minutes ago.
Subaru Okiya was cooking with fear, refusing to say a word, for fear that one of his actions would accidentally mess up Usa's plan, and then his unhappy boss would send him to another place to star in some skull-dismemberment case.
However, it wasn't until an abnormality occurred that Subaru Okiya realized that he was overthinking.
——There was not much room for him to interrupt.
Just a few seconds after the power outage, before he could recover, the sound of Yoshitomo Uemori's gasp suddenly sounded next to him.
"Teacher Uemori??"
The assistant hurriedly found the flashlight and clicked it on.
Following the pain, Michiru Kamimori was already lying down.
Through the flickering light, Mao Lilan vaguely saw a person lying on the ground. She was startled and couldn't help but let out a horrified scream of "Ah——!!".
Okiya Subaru's face was extremely ugly: "...Wait a minute, it seems that the person is not dead yet."
"!"
Mao Lilan was stunned.
She carefully looked around and found that it was really like this, and she suddenly felt embarrassed: "Sorry, the light was too dark, I didn't see clearly just now..."
Normally, Yoshitomo Uemori would have scolded her first.
But now, she really can't care anymore.
"My back... I was stung by a bee on my back..." Michi Uemori's face was twisted and she was breathing heavily, as if she couldn't breathe. She grabbed her daughter-in-law's ankle and said anxiously and angrily, "What are you doing here?
...Come here and show me!"
Shang Morixun could only kneel down and pull open her clothes, revealing a round back.
Mao Lilan had already come to her senses. She hurriedly took out her mobile phone and called an ambulance.
After hesitating for a moment, he erred on the side of caution and called the police. After hanging out with Jiang Xia for a long time, Mao Lilan always felt that as soon as the power went out, Teacher Uemori was stung by a "bee". These things were too coincidental.
Ordinary.
…
After making two phone calls, Mao Lilan put down the phone, but suddenly realized that something was wrong with Okiya Subaru's appearance - he stood frozen on the spot, and although there was no expression on his face, his whole body seemed extremely tense.
Mao Lilan asked with concern: "Mr. Okiya, what's wrong with you?"
...Does this top student have some hidden disease? For example, "having a heart attack when frightened" or something like that. If so, Mao Lilan thought worriedly, maybe he should have told the ambulance to add an extra bed.
"nothing."
Okiya Subaru came back to his senses, tried hard to put aside distracting thoughts, and showed a calm expression again.
He walked quickly to Michi Uemori, squatted down, and glanced at her exposed back, quickly stopping at the upper right side.
——There is a fresh blood spot there.
Okiya Subaru: "..." This is indeed not a bee sting wound. It is more like being stabbed by a solid needle... Combined with Mori Michi's breathless look, it may be that someone touched the black sting just now.
