Conan: Starting out by living with a divorced older sister

Miyano Shiho understood what Murong Zhen meant, and then she also took out a tissue, left her seat, and walked to the bathroom at the back. Seeing this, Mao Lilan followed. Shinichi did the same action directly on the seat, and sure enough, after doing it, the ears that seemed to be blocked were immediately unblocked, and he gave Murong Zhen a thumbs up.

"Murong, let me call you this. Do you know Xiaolan? What's going on between you two?" Shinichi was looking forward to Murong Zhen's answer. It was a relief that Xiaolan was not around, and he wanted to know. Looking at the ring on Murong Zhen's hand and the woman who saw him off at the airport, he knew that he was married, but he still felt a strong sense of crisis from his and Xiaolan's abnormal behavior.

Murong Zhen did not hide it and said, "We met in a coffee shop. At that time, she was photographed by hooligans and I helped her out. The hooligans were the two men I taught a lesson in the waiting room. Then we got to know each other. As for why she pretended not to know me and ignored me, to be honest, I don't really understand. We were fine before."

"Oh, so that's it. Then we should teach those two a lesson. Thank you. Xiaolan and I are childhood sweethearts and grew up together. This time, it was my mother who invited Xiaolan to come to our house to play." Shinichi said with some pride, with a hint of sovereignty in his words.

How could Murong Zhen not hear that? He said nonchalantly, "They are just childhood sweethearts, not boyfriend and girlfriend! Even if they are husband and wife, she has the right to make friends!"

Murong Zhen's words left Shinichi speechless, as if a heavy punch had hit cotton. He said angrily, "Anyway, stay away from her. You are already married. I think your wife is very beautiful. You should be content and learn to cherish her. It is impossible for you and Xiaolan to be together."

At this time, Xiaolan had returned and stood behind Shinichi, but it was not known whether she heard what Shinichi had just said.

The two of them didn't say anything more. They turned around and Miyano Shiho also came back. Judging from their expressions, the ear discomfort must have healed.

Shinichi's words just now let Murong Zhen know something. He had already guessed why Xiaolan was like this. Just as he was about to explain to her, the stewardess came over with a dining cart. The person who came was Mika Yabuki.

With a smile on her face, Mika Yabuki said to Murong Zhen: "Would you like something to drink? Tea, coffee or Coca-Cola?"

Murong Zhen was speechless, he had told them this joke before during the hot spring bonfire party, and it made them laugh at that time. Unexpectedly, the scene happened again now due to chance.

Murong Zhen cooperated and said, "Orange juice!"

Yabuki Mika smiled and poured Murong Zhen a glass of iced Coca-Cola, which he liked to drink! She said, "Ah Zhen, when I'm done, come and see me when you have time?" Murong Zhen took the Coke and nodded.

After Yabuki Mika left, Miyano Shiho asked curiously: "What did your conversation just now mean? Didn't you want orange juice? Why did she pour you a glass of Coke?" Xiaolan and Shinichi were also curious, but they didn't ask.

In order to satisfy their curiosity, Murong Zhen told the joke exactly as it was. They both laughed out loud. Murong Zhen looked at Xiaolan who was laughing heartily. Just as he was about to say something, she immediately stopped smiling and started eating, ignoring him. Shinichi was naturally very happy to see this scene!

After dinner, when Murong Zhen went to the back to look for Yabuki Mika, he met Officer Megure and Officer Takagi who were sitting by the window.

Murong Zhen greeted the two and said, "Two officers, what a coincidence, are you going on vacation?"

Officer Megure said, "We are not so lucky. We are going to Luoshanji to extradite a fraudster. What about you? Are you going to Luoshanji for vacation? Why don't you bring your lover with you?"

"I'm not going on vacation, I'm going to study abroad. As you should know, I'm a second-year graduate student."

"Study abroad! Mr. Murong is so awesome!" said Officer Takagi.

After a few more pleasantries, he left and walked to the back of the plane, and soon found Yabuki Mika, who was with another stewardess. The other stewardess had a high EQ and said, "Meika, you guys keep chatting, I'll go to the front to take a look." Then she left, leaving only Murong Zhen and Mika behind.

Mika first handed over a tissue and said, "Wipe your mouth quickly. I've wanted to remind you since I met you, but never had the chance." But in her heart she thought that the kiss mark should have been left by her elder sister Youliang.

Murong Zhen wiped his mouth and looked at the lipstick on the tissue. He immediately understood why the people who had chatted with him before looked at him strangely. Now he finally knew the reason. Thinking about the many people he had chatted with before, he suddenly felt so embarrassed that he wanted to find a hole to crawl into. However, things had come to this point. There was no other way. The thick-skinned Murong Zhen could only adjust himself.

Murong Zhen did not continue the topic and said, "Sister Meixiang, I see you have some dark circles under your eyes. Did you not sleep well last night?"

Speaking of this, Mika became even angrier and questioned, "How dare you ask me! Do you know that my room is right next to yours and Sister Youliang? Tell me why I have dark circles under my eyes! I haven't had a good night's sleep since you came! I go to bed late at night and get up early during the day to catch flights. How can I not have dark circles under my eyes? You playboy!" Mika became angrier and angrier as she spoke, and she was about to lose her temper.

Murong Zhen quickly interrupted and apologized, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, it's all my fault! Let me fix it." Then he took out two pills and handed them to Mei Xiang. Mei Xiang didn't doubt it at all and ate them directly. Soon, she felt much better, as if she had woken up from a good sleep, refreshed! She sighed in her heart: It's amazing, he is really an omnipotent man.

The plane suddenly bumped, and because Mixiang was wearing high heels, she accidentally lost her balance and almost fell down. Fortunately, Murong Zhen was quick to hug her.

In response to Murong Zhen's help, Meixiang naturally expressed her gratitude verbally.

When Murong Zhen was about to leave, Meixiang handed him another tissue and pointed to her lips. Murong Zhen understood immediately.

Chapter 94 High-altitude murder

Returning to her seat, Miyano Shiho looked at the lipstick mark on the corner of Murong Zhen's mouth which had been wiped off and smiled, thinking: He finally found it, but I guess a lot of people must have seen it, how interesting!

Murong Zhen had already guessed what she was laughing at and said, "You saw it, so why didn't you tell me earlier? You've made me embarrassed all the time!"

Miyano Shiho played dumb and said, "So you didn't know. I always thought you knew and didn't wipe it off on purpose. After all, it was left by such a sexy and beautiful woman."

"Did you see it too?"

"Of course I saw it. On the way to the airport, a couple in love were kissing passionately. It was hard not to see it!"

"Hmph! You playboy!" Xiaolan, who was standing by, could naturally hear their conversation. She snorted at the right time but still ignored Murong Zhen.

It was boring on the plane. It was night time and soon it was time to go to bed. All lights except the necessary ones were dimmed. People on the plane also began to fall asleep one after another.

In the front row, 16D, a man was smoking, with a smug look on his face. He said to the woman next to him, "Xiao Jian, what do you think? Wouldn't it be nice to be the girlfriend of a billionaire?"

Tian Yejian said shyly: "Oh, Daying, there are too many people here. Let's go to the bathroom in the back later and I will tell you in detail."

Seeing the look on Amano Kan's face, Daying and Yang thought that the matter was a done deal and that they would soon gain both wealth and beauty, but they did not know that a trace of hatred flashed in Amano Kan's eyes.

"You'd better make sure that your photo negatives are really as you wish and can be exchanged for so much money. Don't let this turn out to be a disaster!" Chizuru Tachikawa, who was sitting on the right hand side of Amano Ken, couldn't stand his smug look.

"Of course I have already confirmed with the other party by fax in advance. The person in the photo I took is the candidate of a certain party in the United States. Now is a special period of election. If a cheating scandal suddenly breaks out, the negative impact will definitely be huge. So I will take him for granted, at least 1 million yen!"

"Ahem!" The plump middle-aged man who was sitting across the aisle from Daying and Yang's left was choked by the smoke he exhaled and said angrily, "What's wrong with you? How can you smoke in the cabin? If you want to smoke, please go to the smoking area at the back."

In response, he received another puff of smoke. He stood up and was about to deal with him, but when he saw the slightly muscular bodies of Daying and Yang, he backed down again. He could only leave his seat after saying something harsh and walked to the back of the cabin.

[I don’t understand why people were allowed to bring fire on planes and smoke at that time! ]

Seeing the arrogant look of Daying and Yang, the two people beside him also tried to persuade him. Daying and Yang finally put out the cigarette, put on an eye mask and a knitted hat, covered himself with a blanket and prepared to go to sleep, and whispered to Tian Yejian beside him: "Don't make me wait too long."

The conversation between the few people just now was also heard by other people nearby, one of whom was a middle-aged foreign man sitting in front of Daying and Yang, and the other was Lu Zhaosheng who was sitting behind Daying and Yang.

Just like that the cabin fell into silence again, except for Shinichi and Murong Zhen who had not yet gone to bed.

Shinichi didn't sleep because Xiaolan fell asleep, but leaned on Murongzhen's shoulder. Murongzhen was much taller than her, so the height difference between them made it just right for Xiaolan to lean on him. His solid muscles also brought a full sense of security, and the faint fragrance emanating from his body was also intoxicating, so Xiaolan slept particularly sweetly, and Murongzhen did not do anything beyond her control. Shinichi was very jealous and helpless, but he couldn't bear to disturb her, so he could only be angry silently.

Besides Xiaolan, Miyano Shiho was also in the same position, one on the left and one on the right, very symmetrical. Especially the heat from their breathing made him feel overwhelmed. He couldn't sleep at all!

As the saying goes, those who suffer from drought will die of drought, and those who suffer from floods will die of floods. This is the scene.

Shinichi didn't want to see the scene on Murong Zhen's side, so he turned his head to the other side and looked at the aisle.

Murong Zhen had no time to pay attention to what happened during that time. However, Yabuki Mika passed by the aisle on Shinichi's side several times, probably to provide assistance to passengers in need. When she passed by Murong Zhen's seat, she gave him a reproachful look.

======I am the time dividing line======

"Dear passengers, we are sorry to bother you. There is an emergency in the bathroom at the back and a doctor is urgently needed. Please lend a hand." Mika Yabuki repeated the same words three times with a slight tremor in her voice.

Murong Zhen knew that she must have encountered something, otherwise, as a flight attendant, it is impossible for her to encounter an accident that requires a doctor and be so scared. Gently straightened the head on her shoulder, then nimbly jumped out and ran to the back, followed by Shinichi. After Murong Zhen left, Xiaolan and Shiho opened their eyes at the same time, very energetic! There was no sign of just waking up. The two looked at each other and saw a little hostility in each other's eyes, but they were soon relieved.

At the back of the cabin, Murong Zhen arrived first. Yabuki Mika rushed into his arms as if she had grabbed a life-saving straw, and Murong Zhen gently comforted her. Shinichi watched such a beautiful stewardess rush into Murong Zhen's arms, thinking, if only he had arrived first, and the other stewardess was simply a little flustered, but not as scared as Yabuki Mika. Shinichi stepped forward and began to check the specific situation. As expected, a murder occurred. A tall man died in the toilet cubicle. He was one of the two people who were taught a lesson by Murong Zhen at the airport before. Shinichi began to check and asked another stewardess to cooperate in collecting evidence and preserve the evidence.

Meixiang noticed something, raised her head and said, "Behave yourself!"

"You're putting me under so much pressure that I can't breathe. I'm helpless too, okay!"

"You are so annoying! I really don't know why Sister Youliang and Sister Jinghua like you! It must be very comfortable to have two beautiful girls lean on your shoulders just now, right?"

Murong Zhen wisely chose not to answer her!

Meixiang stopped worrying about it. She didn't have the position or status to care about these things. Instead, she shifted her focus to the current situation: "Someone died in the bathroom. What should I do now?"

"It doesn't matter. People like him deserve to be put to death. Someone is already collecting evidence. There are two police officers on the plane. Go call them over."

Mika left Murong Zhen's arms and found Officer Megure and Officer Takagi according to the seat number he provided.

Chapter 95 Finding the murder weapon

The two police officers who rushed over looked at Shinichi's back as he was walking around the scene. Officer Megure shouted, "Who told you to do this? You've ruined the scene!"

Shinichi turned around after hearing the familiar voice and said, "I'm the famous high school detective, Kudo Shinichi, but I'll soon be a college student detective! Long time no see, Inspector Megure."

Seeing that the man was Kudo Shinichi, Inspector Megure breathed a sigh of relief, because Kudo Shinichi had helped him solve many cases, so he was naturally aware of his abilities. "It turns out to be Kudo brother. What a coincidence to meet you on the plane. Are you going to your parents' place?"

"Yes, that's right! But let's talk about the case first! This is a murder case! And the murderer is on this giant bird flying ten thousand meters in the sky!"

He took the camera borrowed from the flight attendant and handed it to Officer Megure: "These are the photos of the scene. They have been taken and are in the camera. The time of death of the deceased was between 1 and hours. The cause of death was suffocation caused by cervical spinal cord injury on the left side of the back of the neck. Judging from the wound, the murder weapon should be a sharp object such as an ice pick. The murder weapon was not found at the scene, which means that the murder weapon may still be on the murderer. There were no signs of struggle at the scene. In the wastebasket, a bottle of chemical agents was found wrapped, which should be chloroform. So I speculate that the murderer first used chloroform to knock the deceased unconscious, and then killed the deceased with an unknown murder weapon."

Seeing Kudo Shinichi's thorough analysis, no one interrupted him. Kudo Shinichi continued, "There are three points of doubt now:"

First, the murderer was lying on his side on the toilet. There was no blood on the victim's back, but there was blood on the wall behind him.

Second, there is a scratch-like mark on the lower right side near the victim's wound. How did it get there?

Third, there were traces of wetness on the inside of the deceased's left trouser pocket, but the palm of the corpse was not wet.

After listening carefully to what Shinichi said, Officer Megure asked, "Who are the suspects?"

Shinichi was somewhat thankful that he was not asleep, and he looked at the people who passed by the toilet out of boredom. He said confidently: "The suspects are the four people who went to the toilet during this period, and the murderer is one of them. The first one is the slightly fat gentleman who first discovered the body, and there is also a tall foreigner, and the two ladies who were with the murderer."

Xiaolan and Miyano Shiho had already arrived at the scene when Shinichi was telling the story. Xiaolan asked curiously, "How do you know it was these people? Didn't you sleep?"

"Yeah, I slept too much last night, so I couldn't sleep just now." She said this, but in her heart she was thinking, how can I sleep with you leaning so intimately on another man's shoulder? I have to see if he does anything inappropriate to you. But he is a gentleman and has always behaved well.

The slightly plump man said, "I didn't kill anyone. Although this person is indeed hateful, I didn't want to kill him. I just came to the toilet. I waited for a long time and found that the person inside didn't come out. I knocked on the door but no one answered, so I called the stewardess to come. The stewardess used a signature pen to turn the locked door latch, and then she found the dead person inside."

Soon, Shinichi took Officer Megure to identify the suspects. In addition to the above-mentioned people, he also brought another man with him. After learning about the situation, the two girls were naturally a little sad, while Lu Numa Noboru, who was also with them, felt a little awkward.

After calming down, Inspector Megure began to question everyone one by one.

After asking, we learned that the order of going to the toilet should be: Otaka and Hiro go first, followed by Amano Kan, the foreigner Edward, Tachikawa Chizuru, and the fat man Ukai Tsuneo.

Chizuru Tachikawa, who has a hot temper, immediately said, "When I went to the bathroom, I knocked on Daying's door and he responded from inside. So how could Xiaojian and I be the murderers?"

Hearing her say this, everyone turned their eyes to the fat man Ukai Tsuneo who went to the toilet last. He realized what everyone meant and pointed at Lu Numa Noboru and said in defense: "This man is lying, he also went to the bathroom!"

Lu Zhaosheng didn't expect that he would be dragged into this, and he immediately defended himself: "What nonsense are you talking about? I was sleeping in my seat the whole time, and I didn't go to the bathroom!"

The fat man said, "I'm not kidding. When the stewardess was giving the short-haired lady the airsickness pills, I clearly saw that the row of seats behind her was empty. That was your seat!"

The two men could not reach an agreement on the dispute, so Lu Zhaosheng had to be listed as a suspect, so the number of suspects became 5 people.

Shinichi said, "Since everyone says that you are not the murderer, the murderer may lie, but the murder weapon cannot. I presume that the murder weapon must still be on the murderer, so please cooperate with the body search and the luggage. I will trouble the two stewardesses to search Miss Tachikawa and Miss Amano, and the remaining three gentlemen will be searched by me and the two police officers. I will search Mr. Edward, I am quite good at English, so there is no problem with communication."

Thus, the first body search began. Naturally, nothing was found, so the search continued into the personal luggage.

Officer Takagi was in charge of recording, and then reported to Officer Megure, saying:

First, there was Miss Amano, whose luggage included: passport, wallet, handkerchief, knitted bonnet, airline ticket, camera, cosmetics, sewing utensils, and a box of motion sickness pills;

Next is Ms. Chizuru Tachikawa: her luggage includes: passport, wallet, handkerchief, cosmetics, tissues, plane tickets, sunglasses, camera, ballpoint pen, notebook;

Then there was Mr. Lu Zhaosheng: passport, wallet, handkerchief, watch, film, cigarettes, camera, lighter, plane ticket, motion sickness pills, a bottle of sildenafil citrate tablets;

Then came Mr. Ukai Tsuneo: passport, plane ticket, wallet, handkerchief, razor, shaving cream

Finally, Mr. Edward: passport, wallet, handkerchief, plane ticket, towel, newspaper, two pocket books, glasses case, sewing utensils, checkbook from the International Express Bank in the United States.

After talking about the items in each person's suitcase other than clothing, Officer Takagi continued, "No murder weapon was found. The refills of the ballpoint pens were also checked, but nothing was found."

At this point, things seemed to be at a stalemate, because the murder weapon was not found anywhere.

Xiaolan looked at Shinichi who was lost in thought and felt a little worried, afraid that he would be hit hard by this. She subconsciously looked at Murong Zhen who was standing next to the flight attendant Mika Yabuki. She knew Murong Zhen's strength and wanted to see if he could find out anything!

Murong Zhen gave her a look that said "don't worry", and for some reason, Xiaolan's original worried mood disappeared in an instant.

Even she herself doesn't know why!
