Rebirth of Conan as a Detective

Chapter 804: Are you listening?

Mouri Kogoro, who was talking about it, had to step down. Although the surrounding guests still gave a warm applause, the uncle still complained a little.

   "Oh," Mrs. Urai smiled. "My husband is also true. It's the same as if he really died..."

   Uncle had no smile on his face. After squatting next to Tarui Urui, he raised his wrist to check the watch according to the procedure and said: "Well, it is assumed that the time of death is in minutes... If my detective intuition accumulated all the year round is correct, the prisoner must be..."

   "President Urai is not acting..."

   Gao Cheng interrupted the uncle suddenly, and under the accidental gaze of Mrs. Urai, Tarui Uraya’s pulse was checked.

   "He has no heartbeat anymore."

   "Huh?" The uncle didn't react yet, and the next moment he looked at Tarui Urai, whose lips were starting to turn blue, and said in shock: "Really, really dead?!"

  Mrs. Urai's smile froze, and said in a panic: "Hey, are you kidding me?"

   "The cause of death, cyanide poisoning."

   Gao Cheng turned around and glanced at Mrs. Urai lightly.

   Since there is no sign, it means that there was a murder before the banquet, an absolute murder.

At the time of the incident, Mrs. Urai was the only one beside President Urai, except for Mrs. Urai, and her reaction after seeing President Urai fell to the ground was also very strange. Normally, even if she knew it was acting, she should cooperate with her husband. But just now, not only did she take the initiative to say that breaking is a performance, she also reminded the uncle to cooperate with her face to face with a smile.

   Gao Cheng silently looked at President Urui, who was staring on the ground with his eyes wide open. His death was miserable. What's sad was that he was treated as a joke. He was definitely desperate at the last moment. Although the poisonous attack was rapid, there was no time to think.

This fat president has only met him twice. It is actually difficult to judge how he is, but he is not bad in front of him, kind and generous, at least there is no problem in receiving people and things, and he is also very good when he promises to help him prepare gifts. Neat.

  Of course, businessmen must not look at it unilaterally, and the multi-faceted nature of people is destined to be more than simple. It is worth investigating what President Uroi's style is in the market, at the company, and at home.

   Generally speaking, the average murderer may be a family member, a colleague, or a competitor in various senses. The police investigation also starts from the aspect of social relations.

  The most suspicious person at the scene is undoubtedly Mrs. Urai, who is on the pillow of President Urai. Whether it is social relations or the time of the crime, it is worth investigating.

The issue is……

   Gao Cheng frowned slightly.

   Uncle Maori took the stage to speak at the time of the case, and Mrs. Urai had been helping Xiaolan check her palmistry at that time. How did she move her hands?

  ……

   "It was Mr. Tarui Urai, 53 years old, who died, the president of Urai Food Co., Ltd. and the organizer of this party. Acute drug poisoning caused by cyanide..."

  Beijing City Hotel still sent the police to the Metropolitan Police Department to conduct a search. Mumu brought Sato and Takagi to the scene. He saw Gao Cheng and Moori Kogoro and his party nearby, and there was no change in his heart.

   "When President Urai’s accident happened, only Xiaolan, Conan, Xiao Ai, and President Urai’s wife, Mrs. Urai Hoshie, who is also the vice president of Urai Foods, were the only ones, right?"

   "Well," Urui Xingjiang nodded, "It happened to be when Mr. Mori came to the stage to give a speech. My husband suddenly screamed and fell down and never moved again..."

   "At that time, President Urai was your wife, right?"

   "Yes... Am I showing Miss Xiaolan palmistry?"

  " Palmistry?"

   "That's it," Xiaolan testified to help, "Madam is looking at me with both hands, so..."

"In other words, it is impossible to take poisonous things with your hands and be eaten by the victim," Mumu groaned and asked his wife to Xiaolan. "Did the wife say anything to President Urai at that time? For example, let him drink something. Or something to eat."

   Xiaolan shook her head and said, "No, the madam just said that she had shown him palmistry before the president got up in the morning..."

   Next to Conan looked at Mrs. Urai who remained silent, looking very calm, and interjected: "But Sister Xiaolan, didn't Madam still say the phrase ‘are you listening?"

   "Are you listening?" Mumu looked puzzled.

   "Yes," Xiaolan recalled, and quickly explained, "At first I thought it was me, but I was asking the president."

   Mrs. Urai followed: "Because Mr. Mori rarely delivered a speech, he was in a daze..."

   Conan looked deeper, and Officer Asamimu said, "But at that time, President Urai’s answer was a bit strange. He didn’t say he was listening or he was not listening, but he said ‘um, probably...’"

"My husband must be absent-minded, so he just answered casually," Yu Guang, Mrs. Urai, looked at Conan, and closed her eyes with a sigh, "Because it was originally scheduled to be announced after Mr. Mori's speech, that is, Divorced me and split the company into two."

   "Divorce?"

"Yes, the scale of Urai Foods is already very large. I often clashed with my husband about the management policy. This is no way. Although he cried and asked me to reconsider, he said that even if the company is divided, he should not divorce. I can’t live without me..."

Gao Cheng was not idle. He had already learned about the situation at the time of the case through Xiaoai, especially the situation of the Urai and his wife at the time. Unfortunately, Xiaoai was not paying attention to the two at the time, and found nothing unusual. Instead, he got it from the garden. I learned a lot of gossip about Urai and his wife.

   Including President Urai who likes to perform at the party every year to surprise guests, and the past of Urai and his wife.

   The two are experts in the study of sourness and sweetness, and President Urui is notoriously disliked sourness, and was bedridden because of eating sour cakes.

   In addition, both husband and wife have won prizes in food competitions, and Mrs. Urai was also a student when President Urai was in the dim sum school.

   Gao Cheng looked at Yuanzi strangely and asked, "Where did you know this?"

   I was born to be a detective.

   Yuanzi blushed and raised his hand: "It's nothing, it's all told by others..."

Because a lot of reporters had gathered outside the entrance of the venue to hear the news. Out of reputation considerations, Mrs. Urai asked to go to the room dedicated to the staff behind to check and search her body, but when she left with Sato, she accidentally tripped her foot. A cup of lemon drink placed on a long table hit the ground, and the sound of the cup breaking again attracted the attention of the audience.

   Gao Cheng followed the long table and looked at Mrs. Urai, whose feet seemed to be lifted by Sato, his eyes narrowed, and he hurriedly grabbed the staff who wanted to clean up the first time.

   Several cups were broken, and the floor was covered with fragments. Drinks flowed all over the floor. There were still cups poured on the table, and the drinks flowed down the tablecloth.

  Because of the tablecloth covering just now, I couldn't see what Mrs. Urai had done, but with Officer Sato nearby, he probably couldn't do much.

Gao Cheng squatted to the side of the debris ~www.NovelMTL.com~ and even lifted the tablecloth to take a look. At this moment, a guest suddenly hesitated and said to Mumu: "That, police officer... Actually, I saw this gentleman. I whispered something to the president before, and it was very strange when the crime happened..."

"Ok?"

   Mumu was dumbfounded, and Gao Cheng, who was looking for clues, also stunned.

"Isn't it?" The guest turned to a waiter next to him, "At that time, you still took this gentleman to the back room. I remember that it happened to be when the lights were turned off, and you happened to pass there before the president's accident... "

   The waiter became frightened, and quickly looked at Gao Cheng: "But he is..."

"Don't you know that he is the famous detective Takasei Kioto?" Mumu looked at the whistleblower who hadn't figured out the situation, said silently, and turned to Gao Cheng with his eyelids collapsed and asked, "Then what? The old man at the scene of the crime, why did you follow to the party?"

   "President Urai invited me to come over," Gao Cheng scratched his hair, "but this time the protagonist is Uncle Mouri, I just happened to be here, by the way, I would like to ask President Urai to help me."

   "Small busy?"

   "Ah, nothing, it has nothing to do with the case."

   Gao Cheng hurriedly interrupted the waiter who wanted to explain, and returned to the topic: "Police Department, the key to this case is how to poison it. From my point of view, the possibility of suicide is very low."

   "Have you ruled out suicide?" Mumu looked dazed, he thought that suicide was the most likely.
