The electrical appliance store recommended by Noah was very close to this place, just across the street. In less than half an hour, they bought recharged batteries and were ready to return to the church for the upcoming wedding.
Coming out of the electrical appliance store, they passed by the dilapidated warehouse they had just passed. The only difference was that there was a homeless man there.
The homeless man was thin, dressed in rags, wearing a black hat and a long beard. He was leaning against a wooden box and sitting there exhausted. Next to him was a wooden cane with a missing section.

As they passed by, the tramp raised his head and looked at them, then closed his eyes again.
"The flame... washes away... the sin..." The tramp's lips moved slightly, and he groaned with unknown meaning, as if he was cursing the world.

"Fortunately, I found it." After plugging in the charging head, Yuanzi breathed a sigh of relief as the red light on the camera lit up that it was charging.
"I just don't know how long it will take for the wedding to start. The battery will definitely not be enough to charge in such a short time." Xiaolan was a little worried, but fortunately Bai Yu and the others were there to buy batteries, so they didn't have to worry too much.
"Then let's go talk to the teacher." Yuanzi suggested, "The bride should be very nervous on her wedding day."
"Won't it disturb the teacher and Administrator Matsumoto?"
"It doesn't matter, I just saw that they have come out." Yuanzi put down the camera and took Xiaolan to go to the bride's lounge. "Anyway, it's boring to wait like this. Let's go, let's go!"
Xiaolan smiled helplessly and followed to the lounge without resisting.
However, after a while,
"ah!!"
A harsh scream sounded, and the originally beautiful atmosphere was instantly broken.
As soon as he entered the church door, Conan heard a familiar cry. Without hesitation, he ran directly towards the source of the sound. He had already identified the voice, it was Xiaolan!
By the time they arrived, a group of police officers who had been attracted by the screams had gathered in the lounge.
Xiaolan stood against the wall in fear, and Yuanzi was also close to Xiaolan.
But Sayuri Matsumoto, who was originally wearing a white wedding dress and was about to marry her beloved, fell to the ground, with bright red blood flowing down the corners of her mouth and staining the originally white and flawless wedding dress.
The ambulance, with its dazzling red light, took the bride to the nearest hospital. Almost at the same time as the ambulance, there was also a police car from the Forensic Division of the Metropolitan Police Department.
Because this accident was not an accident, but a murder!
Police officers in black suits immediately took control of the scene. Except for the forensic personnel, all people who had been in and out of the lounge were asked not to leave the scene.
Officer Megure pressed his black hat, looked around and stopped at Administrator Matsumoto, who was sitting on a chair with a sad look on his face. Under normal circumstances, when a criminal case occurs, the highest ranking police officer present should handle Officer Matsumoto.
As the main leader, lead the investigation of the incident.
However, just now, Manager Matsumoto removed himself from the position of leader because he had been in and out of the lounge, and handed over the command to Officer Megure. He himself sat aside as a suspect.
Officer Megure sighed. His boss, who was usually rigorous in his work and had a cold personality, was actually worried about his children.
"Officer Megure." The old forensics officer wearing a pair of glasses walked up to Officer Megure with a record book.
"Yes, did you find anything?" Officer Megure asked.
"Yes, we detected highly toxic hydrogen compounds from the victim's vomit, and found half a capsule fragment that was in a melted state." The forensics officer paused and added, "And in the lemon remaining in the can
Hydrogen compounds were also detected in tea."
"Then someone put the poison in a capsule and put it in lemon tea. Using the time it took for the capsule to melt, could they use it to mix up the poisoning time and create an alibi?" Officer Megure said after thinking.
"So how long does it take for the capsule to melt?" Officer Megure asked.
"Judging from the fragments of the capsule, the capsule may be a common capsule shell used to package granular drugs on the market. The time for complete melting is about 15 to 17 minutes."
"Then since the capsule has not completely melted, the poisoning time may have been 13 to 15 minutes ago." Officer Megure looked at the suspects standing on the other side.
