In the Fuze family's villa. Everyone gathered at the corner of the side of the villa. on the ground in front of you. Tomizawa Tetsuji, who had just been at Suzuki's villa and was watching the baseball live broadcast with great interest, was lying straight on the ground, his whole head was almost smashed to pieces with a blunt instrument, and spattered blood was all over his upper body. The scene was bloody and cruel. His eyes were wide open and he stared blankly, as if he had seen something that shocked him before he died. "dad!" Tomizawa Yuzo rushed towards the corpse in grief, but was pulled back by Xia Ye, who calmly ordered: "Stand here and don't move. No one can get close to the body except me now!" "Xia Ye, how is it?" Ayako ignored Tomizawa Yuzo, but walked to Xia Ye and asked softly:
"Can you see anything?" "The cause of death was craniocerebral injury caused by blunt force blow. The murder weapon should be the stone next to it. Xia Ye knelt down and inspected the body a little: "According to traces, after the murderer knocked the victim unconscious in a sneak attack, he sat on him and hit his head with the stone at least ten times. The victim died during this period, and the time of death was one to two times so far. hours ago.” "One to two hours ago?" Xiao Ran said in surprise: "That means that President Tomizawa is very likely to be killed as soon as he asked about the villa?" "Probably--" "By the way, did it rain just now?" "That's right, it was just fifteen minutes after uncle returned, but it only stopped raining for ten minutes!" Ayako thought about it for a moment. "Then President Tomizawa was killed not long after he returned to the villa. If he was killed after the rain, there would be no way that the murderer's footprints were not left on the ground! The time of the murderer's murder was determined. Xia Ye looked at the maid of Fuze's family next to her. Of course, this maid was not a young and beautiful girl like Yuko, but a real working maid in her thirties and forties. She was not too good-looking either. nice. "This——"05 "Miss Hirosue~" Ayako answered understandingly. "Yeah~" Xia Ye nodded: "Miss Hirosue, can you tell me what happened?" The maid's mood was relatively stable, but there was a bit of worry between her eyebrows, probably because she was worried about her career future. However, when Xia Ye asked, she still described what happened in a very organized manner——
"The master returned to the villa just after nine o'clock, and then went back to the room. He also asked me to put the water in the bathroom for him at eleven o'clock. When I went to call him at almost eleven o'clock, I found that he was not there. In the room, but the window of his room was open, I looked down through the window and found the master’s body——Then I hurriedly ran to inform the young master!” "You mean the room above is President Tomizawa's room?" Xia Ye looked up. There were soft lights on in the room on the second floor. There was also a small arc-shaped platform with railings outside the window. Although it was a bit small as a balcony, you could stand on it and see everything below clearly~ "That's right!" Miss Hirosue sighed: "My master likes the windmills planted here very much. Every time he comes to Izu, he has to take care of them for a few days. It just so happens that two of them have bloomed in the past few days. His treasures are so precious that he has to take care of them with his own hands every day~" "Windmill?" Xia Ye took a closer look and found that there were indeed several broken branches of windmill chrysanthemums under the body of the dead President Fulong. The original white petals have all withered and even been crushed into the soil. It seems to be in line with the artistic conception of mourning for things that neon advocates~ "What a pity~" "Woo--!" A piercing siren sounded outside the villa. This time the police came very quickly. There was nothing they could do. The eldest lady of the Suzuki Consortium called the police herself. Not to mention that the road was just a little muddy, even if it was a flash flood and avalanche, they had to overcome difficulties and arrive as quickly as possible. "The police are here~" "Leave it to them~" Although Xia Ye has some vague clues, he is only here for vacation, so he should leave it to... etc. This is the beach of Izu. Izu is affiliated with Shizuoka. Speaking of Shizuoka— A coral-headed police officer came to Xia Ye's mind. It couldn't really be him, could it? Then I guess I’ll have to do it myself in the end! After all, the police officer Yokomori in Shizuoka is much worse than his brother in Kanagawa Prefecture. Can you believe that his idol is Mouri Kogoro? Of course, the usual ominous premonitions will always come true. A moment later, Xia Ye saw Officer Yokomizo Sango with coral hair walking into the villa. To her surprise, behind this Officer Yokomizo Sango were two people whom Xia Ye, Xiao Ran and Sonoko were very familiar with. Figure! "Dad, Conan?" "Why are you here?" Xiao Ran looked at his father and his childhood sweetheart who were staying at his house in surprise, and wondered in his heart: Could it be that these two guys are really the gods of death that Xia Ye said, and they would collect cases wherever there are cases?
"Xiao Ran~" Mouri Kogoro laughed and said: "You are not the only one who can take advantage of the holidays to go on vacation, dad, Conan and I can too! This time Conan and I are replacing Dr. Agasa to participate in an event called 'Izu Mystery Tour', so we came to Izu one day in advance! " "No -" Xiao Ran waved his hand and said, "I want to ask, why did you and Conan follow the police here?" "Mr. Mouri?" Coral-headed Yokomizo Sango asked curiously: "Is this your daughter?" "That's right, Officer Henggou, this is my daughter Xiao Ran——" Mouri Kogoro simply acted as a middleman and introduced to Officer Henggou: "This is the eldest lady Ayako of the Suzuki Foundation, this is the second lady Sonoko, and this is Akiyama Xia Ye, their friends——" "Qiu Shan Xia Ye?" Officer Henggou's eyes lit up, and he stepped forward and shook hands with Xia Ye: "You're Officer Xia Ye from the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, right? I've heard your name many times in internal meetings of the police system, and last time you came to Izu, you helped the police station here solve two cases. This time I finally see you in person!" "" Xia Ye was startled by his enthusiasm, but he stretched out his hand to avoid hitting the smiling man. He was greeted with a smile, and he couldn't keep a cold face: "Officer Henggou, nice to meet you~" "Dad, you haven't said why you came here with Officer Henggou!" Xiao Ran was still confused about this issue. "Let me tell you~" Officer Henggou explained with a smile: "Mr. Mouri helped me solve the world's No. 1 Night Festival murder case when I was still working in Saitama Prefecture. I happened to see him in Izu this time. I was about to chat when I received a call from the police. I heard it was from the Suzuki family. The policeman, Mr. Mouri came with us! “So that’s it~” "Okay, let's stop talking and let Officer Henggou investigate the case first-" Xia Ye interrupted everyone's reminiscing. There was a dead man lying on the ground here~ "good!" Officer Henggou's face became serious, and he ordered his men to start sorting out clues from the crime scene. "Did you notice anything wrong?" Officer Henggou over there has once again asked the maid, Miss Hirosue, for her testimony. Conan, who had been quietly observing the scene and the body since arriving at the villa, approached Xia Ye and asked in a low voice. Anyway, Xia Ye already knew the identity of Kudou Shinichi and promised that he could speak at the scene, so he asked directly. "There is indeed————" Xia Ye glanced at the corpse and sneered: "The murderer's plan was rough and a little unlucky. Originally, he took off the watch on the wrist of the deceased so that the police could not determine the accurate time of death. However, a rain made all his efforts in vain, and the time of death was reduced to nine. Between five past nine and fifteen past nine!” "What do you think of the identity of the murderer?" Conan has already heard a lot of information from the maid's testimony, and he just wants to compete with Xia Ye again. See how far apart you are from him!
"Want to test me?" Xia Ye chuckled and said: "The murderer is naturally a member of this family, there is no doubt about it!" "What?!" Xia Ye did not lower her voice like Conan, and everyone around him heard what he said. Then there was a burst of exclamation all around, Xiao Ran and Sonoko opened their mouths, and even Ayako’s pretty face was no longer calm—— Of course, the one who reacted the most was Officer Henggou, who was listening to his subordinates’ report. He ran over in shock and shouted: "Xia Ye, are you telling the truth?" "What evidence do you have?" "The evidence is naturally these crushed windmill chrysanthemums -" Xia Ye pointed to the ground, and everyone looked along his fingers. The white petals were scattered in the soil, accompanied by a little blood. There is an eerie feeling. "Windmill chrysanthemum?" Mouri Kogoro scratched his head and asked in confusion: "What does it have to do with these withered flowers?" "Of course it does matter!" Xia Ye smiled faintly, picked up a broken windmill chrysanthemum from the ground, and asked everyone: "Do you see anything?" "This place has been cut off!" Xiao Ran's sharp eyes immediately saw the smooth cross section on the branch of the windmill chrysanthemum. This kind of cross section cannot be created by just squeezing and trampling, only a sharp blade can do it! "it is as expected!" Everyone finally understood that this must have been done by the murderer! "Let me recreate the scene————" Xia Ye looked up at the small balcony of Tomizawa Tetsuji's room and said in a vague tone: "President Tomizawa returned to his room, opened the window, and wanted to admire the two blooming pinwheels, but found one of them lying on the ground. He was extremely distressed and wanted to go out and help it without any hesitation. stand up- "And because he took care of these windmills personally, he naturally wouldn't call the maid lady, so the moment he came here and squatted down, the murderer who had been lying in wait for a long time knocked him unconscious with a stone, and then She rode on him and brutally killed him!" "That makes sense -" Mouri Kogoro first agreed, "and then started to sing the opposite: "But it's also possible that it was done by someone who sneaked in from the outside. Izu is a tourist resort, and this area is a high-end beachfront villa area. The murderer may be trying to make money. Didn't he take away Chairman Tomizawa's money?" A watch? That should be valuable, right?" "President Fuze's watch is indeed worth ten million--" Xia Ye shook her head and said, "But the people sneaking in from the outside don't know how important these seemingly ordinary pinwheel chrysanthemums are to President Fuze." This murderer must be someone who knows about this!" "That -" the maid, Miss Hirosue, gradually became disbelieving, but she still confirmed Xia Ye's reasoning: "The master thinks that serving a few flowers will undermine his dignity, so only the three young masters and I know about these situations. If the third young master does not tell Miss Ayako, even she will not know!" "Indeed, I don't know
Ayako glanced at Tomizawa Yuzo lightly. And everyone's attention was also focused on him, because the maid who actively cooperated with the investigation did not look like the murderer, so the third young master of the Tomizawa family who had been silent after seeing his father's body became the first choice for suspicion! "Why are you looking at me like this?" Tomizawa Yuzo's eyes were sad: "I am also very sad that my father is dead. As for your doubts - I will start from this afternoon. I have always been at Ayako’s house and have never been back here, so this can be regarded as an alibi, right?” "Forget it!" He doesn't have time to commit murder during the five minutes or so he needs to go to the toilet~" "Thank you Xia Ye!" Tomizawa Yuzo did not expect that it would be Xia Ye, a friend he just met today, who would speak out for justice. This moved him very much, and he became even more fond of Xia Ye! "If it's not Mr. Yuzo, it's the other two brothers of the Tomizawa family~" Mouri Kogoro rarely caught a clue and made a correct deduction. "Okay!" As a fan of Mouri Kogoro, Officer Henggou made a quick decision: "Contact the other two brothers of the Fuze family and ask them to come here as soon as possible. I need to question them!" "yes!" The subordinate police officers responded in unison. Soon, the police contacted the eldest son Taiyi and the second son Tatsuji of the Tomize family. However, one of them is in Osaka and the other is in Okinawa, and they will not be able to reach Izu until tomorrow morning at the earliest. So Officer Henggou decided to spend the night at Fuze's villa tonight and start the interrogation directly after the two men came over tomorrow morning! Mouri Kogoro and Conan followed Xia Ye and the others back to the Suzuki family's villa—— "What? You said Maeda Satoru also participated in that 'Izu Mysterious Tour'?" Everyone chatted about the case for a few words and then changed the topic. Then Xiao Ran learned from his father that his idol Satoshi Maeda had also come to Izu and participated in the same event as his father. Activity! "Xia Ye~" Xiao Ran's voice was soft and waxy. Her beautiful aqua eyes were as moist as a cute deer. How could Xia Ye resist such a request? She could only agree with a wry smile: "Go! We will go tomorrow after solving this case!" "Yeah! Great!" Xiao Ran seemed really happy. He actually jumped on Xia Ye in front of his father, stood up on tiptoes and left a wet mark on his face.
"Thank you Xia Ye!" "Then I'll go to bed with Sonoko!" "Good night!" "And dad, good night to you too!" "This girl——" Mouri Kogoro complained in a sour tone: "It's just a way to say good night to me. Now she only has you in her eyes, Xia Ye. Do you know that you have to treat her well?" "Of course! I will cherish Xiao Ran -" Xia Ye stood up with a smile and said: "It's getting late, Uncle Mouri, it's time for you to rest. "Good night." "Well, good night~" Soon after, the villa became quiet. in the room. Xia Ye hugged Lingzi's fragrant and soft body and whispered: "Good night Ayako~" "Good night Xia Ye~" The moist touch flashed across Xia Ye's lips. After giving Xia Ye a gentle good night kiss, Ayako leaned on his chest and fell asleep sweetly.
