Jiang Xia flipped through the information collected by the police as if reading a book, inputting only fragmentary clues and fragments, but what he told seemed like a story he had witnessed with his own eyes:
"After Mr. Haitang died, around midnight, Mrs. Haitang finished taking a bath and returned to her bedroom.
"At this time, she received a call from Editor Toda. When she bent down to answer the phone, Mrs. Haitang accidentally knocked over the water bottle on the side."
Suzuki Sonoko suddenly thought of something and blurted out: "No wonder the carpet next to the desk is wet! Was it because the water in the bottle came out?"
Jiang Xia nodded: "After hanging up the phone, Mrs. Haitang wanted to drink some water as usual, but the kettle had been knocked over. She had to go to the kitchen to get water again, but when she passed by the refrigerator, she suddenly changed her mind.
"There was a lot of cold beer in the refrigerator. In the past, Mrs. Haitang could only follow the doctor's advice and quit drinking beer for the sake of her health. But now people are going to die, and drinking two glasses of beer is nothing, so she decided to commit suicide instead.
I bought two cans of beer and happily took them upstairs.
"And the empty porcelain cup that Mrs. Haitang took down before was conveniently placed by the sink next to it - this was not an ordinary cup, it was the one that Mr. Haitang had applied poison to.
"After Mrs. Haitang went back to the study to drink beer, some time passed. The secretary couldn't sleep, so she got up and went to the kitchen to drink some water.
"She saw the water glass placed next to the sink, so she drank the water from it. This made her unfortunately the second person to die from poisoning in the villa."
Everyone: "..."
The two people who wanted to kill the troublesome Mrs. Haitang, and then were with each other, accidentally poisoned and killed each other, which is really sad.
Mumu Police Department thought for a while: "Later, Mrs. Haitang committed suicide and became the third person to die here?"
Jiang Xia nodded: "At 2 o'clock in the morning, Mrs. Haitang was still thirsty after drinking beer. She went downstairs to the kitchen again. She originally wanted to get some water, but she was surprised to see the female assistant lying on the ground and next to the body.
The water glass that belongs to her.
"Mrs. Haitang is a talented mystery writer after all. After she was surprised, she immediately wanted to understand the inside story. Then she went to her husband's room and saw Mr. Haitang who was also dying.
"Soon, Mrs. Haitang understood everything - the two people wanted to kill her, but because they did not ventilate in advance, they accidentally fell into the fatal trap set by the other party.
"The drama in it made her angry and funny. After returning to the study, she couldn't help but stand by the window and burst out laughing."
When Suzuki Sonoko heard these words, a voice that suited the occasion almost immediately appeared in her mind.
She sighed: "The sound I heard when I went to the bathroom in the middle of the night last night turned out to be this... No wonder I always think that laughter is very weird." - He actually had such a complicated past and laughed like that.
It's quite normal.
Jiang Xia continued: "The two annoying guys disappeared at the same time. After Mrs. Haitang was angry, happy and confused, her thoughts of suicide were gone. Not only did she not want to die now, she had captured a wonderful inspiration.
"She returned to the study, threw the two chocolate biscuits injected with toxin into the trash can at her feet, then excitedly opened the computer and quickly wrote down her inspiration.
"While writing, she habitually took a piece of chocolate biscuit on the table and nibbled on it, but unfortunately, that biscuit contained poison that she injected with her own hands, so she became the third corpse in the room.
"
Vodka: "..." What a coincidence? What's so unfortunate about this? This must be something you did yourself!
He glanced at the mastermind behind the coincidence, and then at the policeman who listened carefully to the mastermind's story, and sighed silently: "..." Isn't there anyone who questions it? Questions why this guy was able to do this even though he was not at the scene.
Tell so many details like you see it.
Just as I was thinking about it, suddenly, Sato Miwako's voice came from the side: "But..."
Vodka's eyes lit up: Did this policewoman see something? - Come on! Expose his true face, and leave the rest to me... Well, leave it to the organization behind me. I will immediately take care of Uzo who needs to be arrested.
Submit the silencing information, eight hundred miles to expedite it!
Under his expectant gaze, Miwako Sato asked, "But didn't Mrs. Haitang throw away the two poisonous chocolates?"
Vodka: "..." Makes you question why he knows so much and doesn't let you praise him!
Sure enough, Uzo didn't feel embarrassed at all by the question. Instead, he seemed very satisfied with the question and explained in detail: "This starts with what Editor Toda has done."
Suzuki Sonoko: "!" I just said this editor is suspicious!
"!" Editor Toda, "I didn't do anything!"
Jiang Xia: "I remember you made two phone calls before?"
Editor Toda nodded repeatedly: "Yes, but I just asked about the progress of her new book and did nothing else!"
"I know." Jiang Xia waved her hand, indicating that he would talk later, "The call you made at 11:30 last night was not answered because Mrs. Haitang was taking a bath at the time, but in fact, the call was not completely missed.
Be heard.”
"When the phone rang, Mr. Haitang should have happened to be in Mrs. Haitang's study, and her cup was poisoned. When the phone rang, he was startled when the phone rang, and he was so focused that he knocked over the chocolate biscuits on the table in a hurry.
box.
"Chocolate biscuits were scattered all over the floor, and Mr. Haitang had to squat down and hurriedly put those chocolate biscuits back into the box.
"This is why there are no fingerprints on the syringe, but the packaging bag of chocolate biscuits is full of traces left by Mr. Haitang. In this process, the order of the chocolates was completely disrupted."
"Mrs. Haitang didn't know this. After she gave up the idea of committing suicide, she threw away the two pieces of chocolate on the edge because they were the 'toxic cookies' in her memory.
"But in fact, those two biscuits were non-toxic, and the real murderous intention was hidden in the remaining biscuits - about 10% of the time, she unfortunately stepped on them, so in the end she became this 'ironic cycle'
a part of.”
Amidst the murmurs of emotion from everyone, a murder case that was intertwined with malice and coincidence came to an end.
But Conan always felt that he had overlooked something.
He thought for a long time, but to no avail, so he turned his attention to vodka: It must be the fault of the black organization!
But while coming to this conclusion, Conan was full of doubts: If this case was really hatched by the mysterious cadre who had given him and Haibara Ai passports, what exactly was the other party's purpose?
