The Daily Life of a Salted Fish Assassin in Anime Crossovers

Even after she came out of the cockpit, the flight attendant became much more reserved towards Maki Juri, and Conan doesn't know why yet.

Not long after Mu Shuli finished doing all that and returned to his seat, Jiang Hang ran up from the first-class cabin below.

Recalling the events of the past half hour, Conan found many suspicious points, but ultimately lacked a clear solution.

He looked at Jiang Hang, waiting for an explanation.

Just as Jiang Hang was about to speak, Maki's assistant, Yaguchi Masayo, who was sitting in the back, suddenly stood up, took a bar of chocolates, and started distributing them to the people around her.

Seeing this, Jiang Hang turned to Conan and said, "If I told you that there's a high probability that Ms. Maki Juri will die after eating this chocolate, what would you do?"

Upon hearing Jiang Hang's words, Conan stood up from his seat almost without a doubt and looked back at Maki's seat.

The other person had already taken a chocolate ball from their assistant and was about to put it in their mouth.

Upon seeing this, Conan immediately shouted in Maki's direction.

"Don't eat it yet!"

His sudden shout immediately attracted the attention of the others in the cabin.

Even Maki, who was about to put the chocolate ball in her mouth, couldn't help but stop.

Conan saw that the other person had stopped moving, and then he quickly looked at Jiang Hang and asked what to do next.

Seeing Conan's anxious appearance, Jiang Hang couldn't help but sigh in his heart that Conan was indeed much more righteous than him. He had only said one thing casually, and it had made him so anxious.

He had originally planned to let Maki Juri suffer a little longer before taking out the potassium cyanide antidote he had carefully concocted based on the constitution of people in this world, using techniques taught to him by his system brother, and some scientific theories he had learned from Miyano Shiho, to help the other party detoxify.

Of course, although taking the antidote he concocted would neutralize the lethality of potassium cyanide for a short period of time.

Furthermore, after completing the recovery period, it will not have any adverse effects on the body in the future.

However, in the first few days after taking the antidote, short-term side effects such as vomiting and diarrhea are still inevitable.

After all, this is one of the most classic poisons in Detective Conan, a deadly poison that never misses its mark. Jiang Hang has done a great job of improving the side effects to this extent.

However, it now seems that the antidote he carefully prepared and which was quite expensive will not be needed for Mu Shuli.

Originally, the vomiting and diarrhea would have been fine for three to five days, but now she has to go to the hospital for several months of treatment after getting off the plane, and it is unknown what impact this will have on her skin and face in the future.

I don't know which side I would find more acceptable in Mu Shuli.

Thinking about this, Jiang Hang also stood up.

"Brother Mori, I overheard some things from Conan while we were chatting, which is why he seemed so anxious. I wonder if you, Ms. Maki, noticed anything amiss?"

Amidst the puzzled gazes directed at Kogoro Mouri, Kogoro himself wore an even more confused expression.

problem?

What's the problem?

He's sitting here quite comfortably. He stopped the Phantom Thief Kid's actions and is now able to sit with a beautiful actress. Although they haven't talked much, smelling her perfume is still quite pleasant.

But now that Jiang Hang, his younger brother and colleague, has suddenly asked him about this, he naturally can't pretend that he doesn't know anything.

After a moment of panic, Kogoro Mouri quickly coughed lightly and then put on a serious expression.

"Ahem, Brother Jiang Hang, I wonder what you noticed? Could it be that you're thinking the same thing as me? Why don't you tell me first?"

Conan, standing to the side, couldn't help but roll his eyes at the two of them.

Kogoro Mouri thought the other party was just pretending and probably didn't see through anything at all.

As for Jiang Hang, it was Jiang Hang's own words that were being forcibly dragged into the situation, leaving him completely confused and unsure of what was going on.

But now he can only continue to act alongside Jiang Hang.

No matter what, I can't bear to see a life disappear before my eyes.

Therefore, he rolled his eyes at Jiang Hang, wanting to know how Jiang Hang was going to explain himself next.

Jiang Hang simply nodded, took out his professional gloves from his pocket and put them on, and then, followed by Conan, walked up to Maki, whose expression seemed a little unnatural.

Clearly, the woman's attitude towards him was still not very good. She glanced at him, gave a soft snort, and then looked away.

"What are you about to say? You're not going to say that the chocolate is poisoned, are you?"

Upon hearing Maki's words, not only did the female assistant holding the chocolate ball show a flustered expression, but even more nervous was Kogoro Mouri, who had just eaten a whole chocolate ball in one bite before Maki, immediately wiping his forehead.

Seeing Kogoro Mouri sticking his finger up his throat, ready to pop the button at any moment, while staring at him intently, wanting to know what was going on, Jiang Hang spread his hands, indicating that he didn't know whether the chocolate ball was poisonous or not.

Sensing the suspicious look in Mu Shuli's eyes and the female assistant's bewildered expression, Jiang Hang picked up a chocolate ball with his gloved hand.

"But it doesn't look like it's poisonous."

As he said this, he ate the chocolate ball and thanked the female assistant, saying, "You must be Ms. Yaguchi. The chocolate ball is delicious, and it seems to be non-toxic. When I get back, I plan to have my assistant buy more of the same kind to keep at the office for our clients."

"Uh...you're welcome," Masayo Yaguchi, whose mood had fluctuated wildly several times in the past minute, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Of course, the most relaxed one was Kogoro Mouri. Hearing that the chocolate ball wasn't poisoned, he was finally relieved and quickly returned to his original upright and serious detective demeanor.

Seeing Jiang Hang so "skilled" at striking up a conversation with his assistant, Mu Shuli, who was sitting next to him, snorted loudly.

She even started to dislike the chocolate ball in her hand.

But at this moment, she didn't want to make a fool of herself in front of this "all show and no substance" eagle-eyed detective, so she immediately prepared to eat the chocolate ball in front of Jiang Hang to show that the one in her hand was also fine.

However, as soon as she raised her hand, Jiang Hang grabbed it and told her not to be in such a hurry.

"I just said that the chocolate ball I ate was delicious, but if you eat this one, Miss Mu, things might not be so good."

Now, Masayo Yaguchi was really about to cry. She looked at Jiang Hang and said, "Mr. Jiang Hang, how could I have poisoned the chocolate balls? I bought them with Natsuki at the store, and I just opened them in front of her. How could I have had the chance to poison them?"

Jiang Hang nodded to the other party.

"I know this bar of chocolates was just opened, and it must have been Ms. Sakai Natsuki who reminded you to take it out and share it with everyone."

"Mr. Jiang Hang, how do you know?" Yaguchi Masayo was somewhat surprised. How could the other party, who was sitting in the front, be so familiar with the affairs of those sitting in the back?

Jiang Hang gestured for her not to rush, then looked again at Mu Shuli, who was standing next to him with a bad expression.

"Miss Mu, I really wasn't targeting you, nor am I saying there's anything wrong with the chocolate ball in your hand..."

He took the chocolate ball from Maki's hand, carefully wrapped it up as evidence, and continued, "What I mean is, given your current situation, anything that gets into your hands will probably become deadly poison."

Hearing Jiang Hang's words, Mu Shuli was stunned for a moment, and then blushed with a bit of embarrassment.

After all, to her ears, those words sounded like a mockery, implying that she was no good and that whatever she came into contact with would diminish its value.

Because she was carrying a fake gemstone, she promoted it as a real gemstone for publicity, which even attracted the attention of Kaito Kid, a big name in the world of phantom thieves. Naturally, Maki Juri, who was feeling a little guilty, thought that Jiang Hang was trying to smear her face to face.

"Hey, Jiang Hang, isn't it a bit too much for you to say such things to a beautiful lady?" Kogoro Mouri also understood the implication and hurriedly tried to step in to smooth things over, feeling somewhat embarrassed.

But the next moment, Jiang Hang looked at Kogoro Mouri.

"Brother Mori, although I know what I said just now might have been a little too blunt, I had a feeling something was off about the faint bitter almond smell coming from the other person's face and hands. After hearing Conan say the same thing, I thought I should come and check it out."

"You've been sitting next to Miss Mu for so long, is it because your nose is stuffy that you haven't been able to smell it?"

As he said this, he also moved Maki's fingers in front of Kogoro Mouri, as if he wanted Kogoro Mouri to smell them carefully.

Chapter 547: Poison in Perfume

During this process, Mu Shuli tried to pull her hand away from Jiang Hang's.

On the contrary, Kogoro Mouri, after a moment of surprise, immediately realized what was going on.

Although he doesn't really have much reasoning ability, he usually just guesses when he encounters cases and never really uses his brain.

It's probably only on rare occasions when cases involve people close to them that they can truly and seriously consider things for a while.

But after encountering so many bizarre cases in the past six months, Kogoro Mouri still knows these common-sense facts.

He only needed to smell the almond scent emanating from the other person's fingertips to realize that the scent on their hands was definitely not perfume.

With Jiang Hang's prompting, a look of doubt immediately appeared on his face.

"This smell... could it be cyanide?!" He instinctively tilted his head back quite a bit.

After all, this stuff is highly poisonous.

Ingesting high concentrations of cyanide can be fatal within seconds to five minutes.

Although Wenwen was fine, he was more concerned about something else right now.

That's how Maki got these highly poisonous substances on her hands.

No, judging from Jiang Hang's words, it seems that he not only smelled this scent from the other person's hands, but also from their face.

In other words, someone added some kind of cyanide to the perfume that Maki Kuri uses, and now Maki Kuri is applying this highly toxic substance to her face as perfume?

Now Kogoro Mouri really couldn't sit still anymore.

He had come into contact with cyanide quite a few times in the past six months, and he was very familiar with the toxicity of this poison.

Kogoro Mouri shared his knowledge of cyanide, immediately drawing everyone's attention in the cabin.

After hearing these words, Maki felt a wave of fear.

Although she noticed that the scent of the cosmetics her makeup artist used seemed different from usual when she was getting her makeup done today.

But she was just an ordinary actress after all; how could she possibly know anything about poison?

In addition, she has always entrusted her makeup to her own makeup artist over the years, so she naturally wouldn't have thought of poison.

Therefore, after asking a few casual questions, she assumed it might be some new perfume that was currently trending, said she could try it, and readily accepted her makeup artist's application.

If those were truly poison, then if she had just eaten the chocolate ball that Jiang Hang had taken away with her hands stained with poison, wouldn't there have been a high probability that she would have died on the plane?

After all, that's a poison that can kill a person in minutes or even seconds.

Thinking of this, Maki quickly turned to look at Sakai Natsuki, whose expression unconsciously showed a hint of panic, and her tone couldn't help but carry a trace of doubt: "Natsuki, haven't you always been in charge of my makeup? So what exactly happened?"

Even though his face might still be covered in the notorious toxins, his first reaction wasn't to wash his face and hands clean. This made Jiang Hang, who was standing next to him, think that this guy's personality was indeed quite fiery.

However, judging from Maki's current mental state, her poisoning is not that severe yet.

After all, although the skin can breathe and absorb some of the cyanide applied to the other person's face, this only makes people feel uncomfortable and is still far from the real final blow.

It could even be said that even if Maki Juri had eaten the chocolate ball that was stained with a little cyanide, it might not have been a lethal dose. It might have taken some time before obvious signs of poisoning appeared, perhaps until she got off the plane.

Of course, if someone has a habit of licking their fingers while eating, they're likely to be easily won over.

Jiang Hang looked at the chocolate balls.

So, since they've been living together for a long time, and based on his understanding of Maki's daily habits, he specifically bought a box of chocolate balls that easily stick to fingers as a form of enticement.
