Stay away from Conan.

453 Marionette

"So, no matter how you look at it, the relationship between Miss Haley and Mr. Wise should be very good."

Xiaolan couldn't help saying:
"Also, what is 'Xinyi's ability to deceive girls'!"

As she spoke, Xiaolan muttered, seeming a little angry.

"Hey, isn't it?"

In this regard, Yuanzi couldn't help but covered his mouth and smiled, looked at Xiaolan meaningfully, and said:
"Didn't he cheat you away early?"

"Garden!"

Hearing this, Xiaolan retorted a little angrily.

"alright!"

Seeing Xiaolan's expression like this, Yuanzi stopped joking, but said curiously:
"However, is the relationship between Miss Haley and Mr. Wise so good? Why didn't you hear Mr. Wise mention it?"

"What's the matter? Don't you say that you don't care about Mr. Wise anymore?"

Hearing what Yuanzi said, Xiaolan asked a little strangely.

"Nah."

Sonoko waved his hand and said:
"I'm just curious...Mr. Akechi is not like he said, he was only obsessed with his studies when he was in school. Isn't this very attractive!"

Just as he was talking, police officer Mu Mu asked about the contents of the magazine, and Hua Lian's mother, Mei Ling, generously admitted that she, as a mother, controlled Hua Lian's life as mentioned in the magazine.

"Isn't that a little too much?"

Police officer Megure couldn't help asking.

"I love my daughter and I'm just doing what I'm supposed to be doing. Is there anything wrong with that?"

Faced with such an inquiry, Mei Ling couldn't help but refute.

"That's right. Besides, what does this have to do with the case?"

Meimei also helped her mother speak.

"Can't say that."

Police Officer Megure said at this time:

"Motivated killers will often leave clues on the body to communicate why they killed."

"clue?"

Mei Ling repeated the word with some doubts.

"Yes."

Officer Meguro nodded and explained:

"Your daughter was killed like a marionette. The prisoner also wrote in the threatening letter that he wanted Hua Lian to become his own marionette, didn't he?"

"Well...but what does this mean?"

Mei Ling was puzzled.

"Although it's just my speculation, I think the prisoner must be a person with a strong desire to dominate."

Police officer Mu Mu expressed his guess.

"Hey?"

Hearing this, Meimei reacted sensitively to Officer Megure's words, and turned to look at her mother standing beside her.And this action did not escape the eyes of police officer Mumu.

"Your daughter, Hua Lian, seems to have always listened to you, right? But recently, she seems to have started to have her own opinions."

While flipping through the reports in the magazine, Police Officer Megure pointed out the statement mentioned in it and explained.

"What do you want to say?"

Mei Ling asked very angrily.

"I also read from this magazine that Ms. Hua Lian and Mr. Amano Shoichi, who performed sideshows for this competition, once dated."

As police officer Megure said, he couldn't help turning his gaze to Amano Shoichi who was standing aside.

"Well, yes."

Seeing that Police Officer Megure mentioned this matter, Shoichi Amano did not deny it, but admitted it frankly.

"Did you break them up abruptly?"

Inspector Mumu asked.

"What's the problem?"

Mei Ling asked angrily.

"Could it be that Hua Lian, who has a grudge against this, wanted to take revenge and resist your control a long time ago? Maybe she said that she would quit today's competition and wanted to go home?"

Police officer Mu Mu asked a little seriously.

"Haha, you really know how to joke."

Mei Ling couldn't help saying:
"Hua Lian is very much looking forward to today's competition, because she is the winner. And the reason why they broke up is because Hua Lian realized that she no longer needs Amano, so she agreed."

"But isn't it the mother who forced her to agree?"

The police officer Mu Mu asked sternly.

"I'm thinking about my daughter, what's wrong!"

Mei Ling said sharply.

"I can understand that it is only natural for parents to think about their children."

Police officer Mumu couldn't help but say.

"Of course, this is maternal love."

Mei Ling said it as a matter of course.

"That's...too much..."

Hearing what Meiling said, Xiaolan and Yuanzi both felt suffocated.

"If I go out with the person I like and end up being forced to break up by my parents, I will resist..."

Sonoko said in a daze about this.

"Yeah... don't you think this is a bit too much?"

Police officer Mumu also followed Sonoko's direction and said with a serious face.

"How, how could it be too much..."

Mei Ling began to fidget and said.

"However, this is indeed the result my sister Hua Lian expected. It is precisely because Hua Lian hopes to win the beauty pageant that my mother is so strict with her."

Meimei, who has been silently listening to everyone's conversation, came out again to defend the present:

"Besides, why did mom kill Hua Lian? Hua Lian is the most promising candidate for this beauty pageant. As long as she wins this contest, she will be able to get a ticket to the World Series. Mom too She has worked so hard for this goal until now, why would she want to kill such a daughter when the competition is about to start?"

Meimei continued to question Officer Mumu.

"However, what would happen if Miss Hualian suddenly started to tire of her mother and wanted to leave her side?"

Police officer Mu Mu said suddenly.

"what?"

Hearing this, Meimei's expression became a little surprised.

"When a person who has always obeyed her own words and never disobeyed orders, like her own marionette, starts to disobey her orders, she will feel angry and want to teach her a lesson and maintain her majesty... And of course..."

At this time, Zhibao on the side seemed to think of his own experience from their conversation, bowed his head, and said with a sense of loneliness.

And hearing this, the people present couldn't help but froze for a moment.

"Huh? Kudo, who is this girl?"

Seeing Shiho standing beside Shinichi, Officer Megure asked.

"She... is a friend of Mr. Wise."

Shinichi replied.

"Oh! My wise brother's friend..."

Police officer Mumu said unexpectedly, but at the same time he couldn't help but ask:
"In that case, brother wise is also here?"

"Gao Yuan has other things to deal with now, so please let me know about the investigation progress of the case."

Shiho replied:
"Hello, my name is Haili, please give me your advice."

"Well, hello, I'm Mumu from the Metropolitan Police Department."

Police officer Mumu nodded lightly, responded, and then couldn't help saying:

"Then, wise brother is also paying attention to this case! That's really great!"

With that said, Police Officer Mumu looked at Meimei and the others, and continued to change the topic:

"Well, Miss Haili is right. For example, Miss Hualian said that even if she wins this competition, she is unwilling to participate in the World Series again. She hopes to retire and marry Amano. If this is the case, your mother will be very happy." Are you angry?"

"She, she couldn't have said such a thing."

Meimei immediately denied this, but her voice seemed a little powerless.

"That's right, even if she said that, your mother wouldn't agree. Even if your mother objects, what if Miss Hualian still doesn't want to play?"
