Yusuke Suzuki looked around but couldn't find Conan.
On the other side, Ke Paopao had already jumped to the sixth floor.
What did Yusuke mean by that look he gave me just now? Was he telling me to follow Mr. Ueda?
The sixth floor isn't the roof, so the slippers are in such a weird spot...
At that moment, Conan saw a flower deliveryman standing in front of Joji Ueda's room.
But Ueda Joji quickly closed the door again. Conan went up and heard the deliveryman muttering something like, "This is definitely a prank."
Sure enough there is a problem.
Conan went over and found that the doorbell for Ueda Jouji's room was broken, so he had to knock on the door directly. "Uncle Ueda, I suddenly feel very thirsty. Could you give me a glass of water?"
"Come in, come in quickly." Ueda Joji opened the door and let Conan in.
"Find a seat anywhere and wait for me."
After saying that, Ueda Joji left to pour water, and Conan began his investigation.
"Dong dong dong."
Just as Conan was about to go to the balcony to check, there was a knock on the door.
"Uncle Ueda, I'll go open the door."
After receiving a reply, Conan opened the door.
"Brother Yusuke?"
The visitor was none other than Yusuke Suzuki.
"Did you even understand my signal?" Suzuki Yusuke asked Conan as soon as he walked in. "We've been at it for over a hundred chapters, how come we still don't have any understanding?"
"I think... I understand," Conan asked curiously. "Where are Uncle and the others?"
"The teacher thinks it was an accident and is preparing to close the case." Suzuki Yusuke entered the room, just as Ueda Joji came over. "Mr. Suzuki is here too."
Ueda Joji clearly heard what Suzuki Yusuke had just said, and he could hardly hide the joy in his eyes.
"Is Mr. Ueda hot?" Suzuki Yusuke was a little surprised to see the sweat on the other man's forehead. It was autumn, and the temperature wasn't high.
"Well, I tend to sweat easily; it's just my constitution," Ueda Joji explained hastily. "By the way, Mr. Suzuki, would you like something to drink?"
"No need, let's go down."
He figured it out as soon as he entered the room; the method was simple, but very effective.
Upon hearing this, Conan panicked. This was clearly not an accident. "No, no, I want to play here a little longer!"
Yusuke Suzuki took out his phone and took a close-up shot. It had been a while since he'd taken a picture, but his skills hadn't gotten any worse.
"Conan, be good, let's go downstairs."
Conan: I'm really fed up with this guy, he got caught on camera again!
Chapter 115 This is really awkward.
"You guys go down first, I'll be right back after I go to the restroom."
Ueda Joji said something and turned to leave.
Seeing Conan's unhappy expression, Yusuke Suzuki simply dragged the famous detective around the room, asking, "Did you see these traces?"
"Oh, I see," Conan suddenly understood.
However, he didn't like it.
What kind of behavior is this, spoiling a child like this?!
At that moment, Kogoro Mouri and Juzo Inspector Megure also came upstairs.
Yusuke Suzuki pretended to be dead, stood on the balcony to get some fresh air, and waited for a while. When his friend still didn't move, Inspector Megure also planned to close the case and leave. Conan had no choice but to take matters into his own hands and knock out the bumbling detective with a single needle.
"Maori brother!"
Inspector Megure suddenly perked up. He hadn't seen anything like this in a long time. Was there really something hidden in this case? He knew it! With Mori around, how could it be an accident!
"Inspector Megure, if we want to close this case as an accident, we need to solve a few mysteries first."
"First, the door to Mr. Yoshimura's room was locked with a lock, but he didn't put a chain lock on it from the inside. It doesn't seem normal for someone who has been threatened and is terrified."
"Furthermore, if he had been drinking in the room before he fell, how could the ice have melted all in such a short time?"
Megure was all excited and ready to hear the reasoning, but Conan pulled this stunt, and he was dissatisfied. "Mouri, what exactly are you trying to say?"
"What I want to say is that Mr. Yoshimura was not even in his room before he fell from the building."
"Is that so? Then where do you think he might be?"
He's in this room!
Upon hearing this, the entire room fell into its usual state of shock.
Conan continued his deduction, "On Mr. Yoshimura's body, only his left foot was wearing a slipper, while the other foot flew far away to the roof of the warehouse next door. Even if he accidentally lost his balance, the slipper couldn't have flown that far unless he was on a floor higher than the fifth floor."
"Besides the roof, there's only this room. Unfortunately, the door leading to the roof is locked."
"So..." Inspector Megure looked at Joji Ueda, "who is the culprit?"
"What...what are you talking about?!" Ueda Joji exclaimed anxiously. "Detective Mouri, don't talk nonsense."
Without further ado, Conan asked Chiba Kazunobu to help move the furniture around the room. "Inspector Megure, doesn't this room look very similar to the one on the fifth floor?"
“As long as the lights are off, even if the furniture is not exactly the same, Mr. Yoshimura would probably think that this is his own room.”
“There’s an ashtray on the bedside table,” Conan said coldly. “Mr. Ueda, I remember you don’t smoke, do you?”
“This, this is what Yoshimura brought over before,” Ueda Joji quickly added, revealing his greatest asset, “Mr. Mori, I was with you the whole time Yoshimura fell, wasn’t I?”
“You’re right, that’s how I can provide you with an alibi. However, I’ve already seen through your methods.”
“Earlier, you were probably drinking with Mr. Yoshimura at 501, and you gave him some kind of tranquilizer that would only wake him up when he heard a sound.”
"Then, help him to room 601, turn off the lights, and then, under a different identity, order a bouquet of flowers from a florist and ask them to deliver it at a fixed time. That completes the preliminary preparations."
"Once you meet me, I time it perfectly. When you see the florist's car arrive downstairs, you get up to make a phone call, and you'll probably say something like, 'The person who threatened you is coming to find you soon, run!'"
"Mr. Yoshimura would naturally panic. At that moment, the flower delivery person started knocking on the door. He instinctively thought of jumping from the balcony to the warehouse next door. However, this was the 6th floor."
"Am i right?"
Ueda Joji's eyebrows twitched, but he continued to stubbornly insist, "Where's the evidence!?"
"There's a call record on the landline in this room, isn't there?"
"I... I dialed the wrong number at first. I dialed my own room first, and then I dialed Yoshimura."
Conan was behind the sofa, his glasses glowing, a slight smile playing on his lips, which Suzuki Yusuke could see clearly.
"That one on the 5th floor...wait!?"
Oops!
Conan froze. Behind the sofa was the balcony, and at that moment, Yusuke Suzuki was calmly watching him.
"The phone on the fifth floor has no call records, right, teacher?"
Yusuke Suzuki stepped forward and took over the conversation, glancing at Kogoro Mouri, who was fast asleep with his head down.
"No...that's right, Mr. Ueda, is there anything else you'd like to say?"
Ueda Joji had no way to defend himself, so he knelt down and confessed in a classic manner.
......
"Seriously, another case has been solved as soon as I woke up. You really are worthy of being the great detective Kogoro Mouri!"
While the bumbling detective was still gloating, Conan and Yusuke Suzuki remained silent.
It was... kind of awkward.
Conan was now filled with mixed feelings. His deduction for the uncle had finally been discovered. Considering Suzuki Yusuke's previous behavior, it seemed as if he had been actively seeking opportunities.
First, he investigated with himself, then kept hinting to Uncle Mori that he intended to close the case and leave, forcing him to hurry up and find out the truth. As soon as Uncle Mori came over, Suzuki Yusuke went to the balcony and stopped talking.
Who was he waiting for to deduce the reasoning? He could only be waiting for himself, because Uncle Mori hadn't even come to the sixth floor to investigate.
This is a trap, a conspiracy!
Damn it, when exactly did I start to doubt myself?
Conan couldn't understand it, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that Suzuki Yusuke had been watching him for a long time.
Perhaps it would be easier to investigate myself if I became the uncle's apprentice?
Compared to Conan's brainstorming sessions, Suzuki Yusuke's ideas were much simpler.
It was a bit of a miscalculation. Subconsciously, I didn't want to deduce anything and try to reduce my presence, but I overlooked the fact that Kogoro Mouri hadn't participated in the investigation at all this time, and he didn't even notice that he could clearly see Conan's actions from the balcony where he was.
Since even his own teacher had started deducing, he couldn't just turn around and not look, right? As soon as he turned around, he saw Conan squatting there.
What could he do? He was desperate too.
Now, how can I find a reason to continue ignoring what Conan is doing?
Continue to use the "child prodigy" excuse? But it's hard to fool people just by using the fact that Kogoro Mouri was anesthetized to deduce the truth.
Why don't we just lay our cards on the table?
That wouldn't be appropriate either. If his identity is exposed, it will have a huge impact on the plot. What if there's a plot hole? Conan will definitely ask him to arrest Gin and provide the Boss's email address.
The plot will get out of control; he doesn't think the Red Team is strong enough right now.
Back at his apartment, Suzuki Yusuke was still thinking about how to get through the day. He decided to pretend to have amnesia; that would be the safest option.
Sigh, why did I have to get involved in all this? Wouldn't it have been better to just finish my statement and go back to Professor Agasa's house to keep Ai Haibara company?
During the camping trip, Ai Haibara already had some doubts about his identity. Now that Conan has brought up today's events, what will happen?
Chapter 116 No matter what, I believe in him
After resting at home for two days, Yusuke Suzuki remained indoors, burying his head in the sand like an ostrich.
