The sky was filled with stars like lanterns, with the pale blue sky serving as a backdrop, and the lights below the mountain looked like stars falling to the ground.

Yusuke Suzuki continued drinking while enjoying the scenery. He wasn't easily drunk to begin with, so he had to work harder than the average person.

Use every spare moment to drink until you achieve your goal.

However, he still miscalculated.

When he returned, he had finished the entire bottle of wine, but he was only slightly tipsy.

"Yusuke-nii, aren't you going upstairs?"

Ran Mouri was somewhat surprised to see Yusuke Suzuki still downstairs.

"Okay, you guys go to sleep first, I'd like to sit outside for a while longer."

"Okay, but you should still go to the hospital to get checked out after you get back."

After watching Ran Mouri and Conan go upstairs, Yusuke Suzuki sat down on the sofa in the lobby.

"Mr. Suzuki, are you having trouble sleeping?"

"I suppose so," Yusuke Suzuki glanced at the pretty maid who was walking over, "I wonder if there are any spare rooms?"

"Yes, there are, but they are rooms that haven't been cleaned in a long time. I've been very busy today and haven't had time to tidy them up."

"It's alright. To be honest, it's because Mr. Mori's snoring is so loud at night that I'm forced to have insomnia."

Miss Ayaka covered her mouth and smiled, "Alright then."

Upon entering the room, Suzuki Yusuke was somewhat speechless. "It's not dirty."

"It just looks like it hasn't been lived in for a long time. Let me change your bedding."

"Thank you."

After finishing his work, Yusuke Suzuki took a shower and lay comfortably on the bed.

It was just an ordinary night, yet he felt an eerie tranquility.

Comfortable, so comfortable.

Under the influence of alcohol, Yusuke Suzuki quickly fell into a deep sleep.

The next day, a scream shattered the morning's tranquility.

President Michikichi Majima passed away, his body lying on the white sand with a rope around his neck.

It was the courtyard they had visited yesterday.

"Yusuke, call the police immediately!"

Kogoro Mouri was already hungover and had just come to his senses.

"It's already been done."

Yusuke Suzuki stopped Masayuki Hashimoto, who was about to rush to the body, saying, "This is a homicide. In order to preserve the integrity of the scene, it's best if you don't go over there."

Hashimoto Masayuki wanted to struggle a little more, but suddenly felt as if his shoulder was being clamped by iron clamps.

Honestly, they won't behave unless they're taught a lesson.

After letting go, Yusuke Suzuki gave him another warning look.

“Dad,” Ran Mouri tugged at the bumbling detective, “look over there, there are no footprints around the body.”

Upon hearing this, everyone present suddenly realized what was going on.

"How...how exactly did the murderer get the company president there?"

"In any case, let's wait for the police to arrive first," Kogoro Mouri said, taking charge as usual. "At the same time, I hope that no one will leave without permission."

The police arrived quickly.

"Isn't this Mr. Mori?" Yokomizo Sango exclaimed with delight. "It's been so long!"

Then his expression turned strange again, "But it seems like we always meet under these circumstances..."

"Where there are unsolved cases, there will be famous detectives."

Kogoro Mouri feigned profundity, saying, "It can only be described as fate."

"It might be because of the teacher's special physical condition."

+1 Cold stare from the bumbling detective.

"Yusuke, what are you saying?"

"I mean, teacher, you are constantly being summoned by cases; you are like a messenger bearing a huge responsibility."

"Hahaha, you really understand me!"

Conan: "..."

What Yusuke Suzuki said is really outrageous.

Yokomizo Sango couldn't listen any longer and said, "In short, this time, we still need your great help."

At this point, the forensic results came out: the cause of death was asphyxiation due to compression of the neck, and the estimated time of death was between 8 p.m. and 1 a.m. last night.

"The murderer must have moved him here after nine o'clock, because only the part of the body that was in contact with the white sand was wet."

Kogoro Mouri suddenly started analyzing, "In other words, the crime must have occurred between 9 p.m. and 1 a.m. last night."

"So that's exactly what I was thinking."

Is it here yet? Mr. Mori's process of elimination!

Yokomizo Sango immediately became a devoted fan, asking, "Do you already know who the murderer is?"

"In my dictionary, Kogoro Mouri, there is no such word as 'impossible crime'!"

Yusuke Suzuki tilted his head to look at his teacher. Was he still hungover? Why was he so tipsy today?

However, since Kogoro Mouri had already said it, there was no way to back it up. He and Conan could only watch as Sango Yokomizo brought the suspects over.

"Mr. Mori, please begin!"

"Ahem," the bumbling detective cleared his throat, "Let me first clarify everyone's alibis."

"So, Mr. Kiyama, last night, after the dinner party ended at eight o'clock, you went back to your room on the second floor to watch videotapes, and then around 11:15 p.m. you took Ran and the others to see the night view, and didn't come back until 1 a.m., right?"

"Mr. Hashimoto left the restaurant around 8:10 a.m. after him and went straight back to the company. He even brought my car back this morning."

“Mr. Endo and I drank at the restaurant until 9:30 yesterday, and then he stayed in the room.”

Seeing that none of the three had any objections, Kogoro Mouri turned his gaze to the maid, "So now the most important thing is Miss Ayaka's testimony."

“After 8:45, the only person who entered or left the villa was Mr. Kiyama. The police did not find any traces of entry or exit through the windows around the villa. Therefore, as long as someone enters or leaves the villa, Ms. Ayaka will definitely see them.”

"In that case, the only murderer with no alibi is you, Mr. Hashimoto!"

Yusuke Suzuki nodded, finally eliminating one of them. Why is this bumbling detective talking so much nonsense today?

Chapter 216 Conan: I never said that

"How could it be me!?"

Hashimoto Masayuki was completely stunned and hurriedly tried to explain himself.

However, Kogoro Mouri had already created a method in his own mind that he thought was feasible.

That is, to use that lifting pole to hoist the body into the courtyard.

As expected, it failed.

After a heavy object was hung on it, the lifting lever could not withstand the weight and broke.

The situation became awkward.

"Brother Yusuke, look here."

Feeling his clothes being tugged, Suzuki Yusuke looked down and then looked in the direction Conan was pointing. There was a rubbing mark.

That's not right.

He had previously thought that this method, like the magic enthusiasts' gathering a long time ago, involved moving the body using ropes or something similar.

But now it seems the methods are different.

At least the crucial prop, the retrieval lever, is not used in that technique.

Soon, Yusuke Suzuki came up with a method, but then felt it was unlikely, because when the area was submerged, the depth wasn't very deep, and the buoyancy seemed insufficient.

However, he felt that this method was the only one that was relatively possible.

At this point, Nobuaki Endo began to ask to leave.

Yokomizo Sango didn't want to let the person go, but he couldn't find a reason to force them to stay, since Kogoro Mouri's reasoning had already cleared the person of suspicion.

"Mr. Mori, look at us now..."

"It's so noisy! I'm thinking, can you please be quiet?"

No sooner had Kogoro Mouri finished speaking than the forensic team arrived, having found something new.

A piece of paper read, 'If you don't want me to expose your business misconduct, come to the roof of the villa tonight at 11 PM with this paper.'

"Miss Lingjia, did you see the president return to the villa yesterday?"

"No, I didn't see it."

Seeing that the other person's expression was off and her tone was forced, Kogoro Mouri decided to put more pressure on her, "Miss Ayaka, could it be that you killed her?"

Yokomizo Sango chimed in, "Please tell the truth!"

Meanwhile, Yusuke Suzuki has already gone to find evidence; he needs to prove whether his idea can be realized.

"Brother Yusuke, what are you looking for?" Conan didn't stay there; he chose to come over and help find clues.

"air cushion."

"A cushion foundation? Why would I need that?"

"Of course it's to test the technique," Yusuke Suzuki said irritably. "Otherwise, why would we bring it here for fun?"

"That's right..."
