"There was also a silencer at the scene, but it wasn't next to the discarded Type 54 pistol..."
Yukiko Kudo lip-synced, showcasing her special talent from her past as a movie star.
It seemed flawless; no one else realized that it wasn't Yukiko Kudo speaking, but Conan, who was crouching behind her legs, using a voice changer.
"This silencer is also a crucial piece of evidence that could determine the outcome of this case, and this piece of evidence will be valuable if nothing unexpected happens."
"It should be on your body, Mr. Ueki Kusaba, or more precisely, on your right or left ankle. It's held in place by a sock to prevent it from slipping off, which is why you're standing the whole time. If you sit down, your trouser leg will lift up, revealing the silencer!"
These final words finally made Ueki Kusaba completely admit defeat.
He sighed, reached out and grabbed his trouser leg, lifting it slightly. What came into view was a muffler that hadn't completely cooled down.
This scene also made Takagi Wataru, who was standing next to him, gasp and give a thumbs up.
Although you are the perpetrator of a heinous murder, I have to admit that you are indeed a man of honor.
Before the muffler cools down, it gets quite hot. Wearing a hot muffler on your calf is like grilling yourself.
Despite the intense heat, Ueki Kusahachi remained silent and showed no abnormality, which was simply extraordinary.
“...I originally didn’t want to kill Master Fujieda.”
"However, this manor is where Madam grew up, and the flowers outside were also cultivated by Madam little by little from childhood. I really can't bear to see this manor sold, demolished, and rebuilt because of Mr. Fujieda's ideas."
"I am grass," said Zhi Mucao without changing his expression.
"I want to leave something for the lady, as a trace of her having lived."
Eri Kisaki had mentioned this many times before.
Fujieda Mikio was an adopted son-in-law who married into the Fujieda family. His real wife was not the current Fujieda Motoka; this was clear just by looking at their ages.
For old servants like Zhimu Kusahachi and Tufei Gengzao, who had watched their mistress grow up, this was a different story.
Fujieda Mikio's influence was not as great as that of the deceased Fujieda Lady.
In this situation, it is obvious what choice will be made.
Inspector Megure immediately ordered Ueki Kusahachi to be taken away. Before leaving, he thanked Eri Kisaki and Yukiko Kudo, among others. Yukiko Kudo, having gotten the limelight this time, waved her hand smugly, pretending to be a superior person.
Only Conan, who had just emerged from behind Yukiko Kudo, gave her a slightly strange look.
Of course, Yukiko Kudo didn't see it, otherwise she might have been subjected to Yukiko's hellish karate chop again.
"...I thought it was A-Fan who wanted to kill Gan Xiong."
Fujieda Suka breathed a sigh of relief.
"I never expected it to be the butler, Ueki."
"But this means I'll have to share Miki's assets with A-Fan again, which is really..."
Before she could finish speaking, Eri Kisaki corrected her.
"Mr. Fujieda Shigeru is Mrs. Fujieda's younger brother, and there is no inheritance relationship between him and Mr. Fujieda Mikio."
"If Mr. Fujieda Mikio did not leave any other will, then Ms. Fujieda Soka should inherit all of Mr. Fujieda Mikio's estate."
Fujieda Suka immediately grinned.
It turns out that all her wits and battles over the past few days were just fighting against thin air. If she had known this earlier, she would have consulted a professional lawyer sooner, and she wouldn't have even had to spend the money to persuade Fujieda Mikio to hire a detective to protect him.
At this point, she suddenly realized something.
Yes, neither Kogoro Mouri nor Eri Kisaki protected Mikio Fujieda as originally agreed. So, can the 10 million yen be recovered?
Although 10 million yen is not a large sum of money for the Fujieda family.
However, considering that Fujieda Mikio's assets would all belong to her in the future, it was necessary to take this 10 million yen.
Just as Fujieda Suka was about to speak, Kisaki Eri pulled out the previously written contract from her bag.
The statement above is about finding out who wanted to kill Fujieda Mikio, not about protecting Fujieda Mikio from being killed by the murderer. Therefore, Fujieda Motoka has no way to recover the 10 million yen.
Fujieda Suka clicked her tongue and waved her hand, indicating that she would not pursue the matter further.
Then, she saw Eri Kisaki take out a second contract from her bag and speak seriously.
"Although Mr. Fujieda Mikio and I don't get along very well."
"However, he had previously left me a notarized contract to ensure that if he were to die because of someone's assassination, his property would not fall into the hands of a traitor within his own family."
Fujieda Soka:?
Then, Eri Kisaki pulled out a piece of paper and said...
"This is Mr. Fujieda Mikumaki's will, which was notarized in advance."
"It is clearly stated above that his money will not be left to those who cannot protect him. Therefore, in accordance with the matters clearly stated in Mr. Fujieda Mikio's will, all his assets will be donated to the state, leaving nothing behind."
"Ms. Suhua, I'm afraid you'll be disappointed."
Fujieda Soka:?
I work from 8 AM!
You've made a fortune through dirty work your whole life, and now you want to donate it all before you die?
The biggest winner in this case is actually Rei Furuya's lover!
Shocking!
Chapter 1067 You might as well just give me your ID number
"...Yusaku Kudo's friend lost something? A magical item?"
Inside the bat cave, Chen En's brows furrowed slightly.
He then asked.
"So, does Mr. Kudo have any suspects?"
At this moment, Chen En had already sent the three clowns of the Suzuki Group back to the Suzuki Manor, and then went straight back to the Bat Cave, preparing to investigate the situation in Tokyo again tonight.
Death has come out for a stroll today, and has now added another murder case to the list.
I don't know if there will be any other murders tonight. In any case, it is still necessary to be extra vigilant, so as to prevent any accidents from happening.
Meanwhile, Yukiko Kudo, who was originally at Fujieda's house, was already on her way to the Mouri Detective Agency.
At this moment, she had already ridden her cool motorcycle, wearing a windproof helmet, and followed behind the taxi that Eri, Ran, and Conan were riding in, talking to Chen En through her earpiece.
"Yusaku said that the suspect is most likely someone who has mastered many kinds of magic."
Have you mastered many kinds of magic?
Chen En frowned, realizing that things were not so simple.
Yukiko Kudo then continued.
"Moreover, judging from that person's skillful methods, he should be a habitual thief who has probably done a lot of petty theft in his daily life. The magical aura left at the scene was also a bit noisy, as if he was carrying many kinds of magical artifacts."
Oh? You've done plenty of petty theft in your daily life, and you even have a lot of magical artifacts?
Chen En seemed to have thought of something and pondered to himself.
The next moment, Yukiko Kudo said.
"According to Yusaku's friend, that person doesn't seem to be a native of the Tokyo magic world."
"Because his friend is an old local magician in Tokyo, and he said that there has never been such an unethical magician in Tokyo. He must be a magician from somewhere else..."
"Yusaku asked me to ask you if you have any leads on this."
If the first two characteristics only somewhat match...
This third characteristic is practically just reciting someone else's ID number.
Although that guy didn't have an ID number.
Chen En was speechless for a moment, and then said.
"I understand, I will get in touch."
"Mrs. Kudo, why is it so noisy over there? Where are you going? To the Mouri Detective Agency?"
His words immediately made Yukiko Kudo beam with joy.
"Of course, I'm on my way to the Mouri Detective Agency."
"Mr. Chen En, are you aware of the selection of the Teitan Princess back then?"
“Back then, Eri and I were very famous beauties. Just the two of us attracted a lot of people. For one school election, a total of 20,001 ballots were printed.”
“At that time, Eri and I each had 1 votes, so it was a tie.”
"But just now at the Fujieda house, Conan told me that the last unvoted ballot is in Kogoro Mouri's pocket. If we ask Kogoro Mouri, we'll know who won!"
"Although I never care about winning or losing, I still feel it's necessary to ask."
...You clearly care a lot about winning or losing, okay?
Chen En twitched the corner of his mouth and didn't ask any more questions, but simply said...
"I understand. I'll take care of it for Mr. Kudo later."
After he finished speaking, Yukiko Kudo hung up the phone and focused on driving.
The image of Noah's Ark was displayed on the supercomputer screen.
The super AI asked with some curiosity.
"Back then it was just a beauty pageant among high school students, how can it attract so many people to vote now?"
"That was 20 years ago, in the 70s if I remember correctly. Communication and media technologies were not advanced at that time. How could such a large-scale spontaneous vote have been achieved?"
Who would know about this?
Maybe when Detective Conan filmed this episode, it was already the 21st century. If we go back 20 years, that would be the 80s. It's normal for it to have such widespread appeal in the 80s.
Chen En shook his head slightly, and then said.
