Science: The Little Shota of the Maori Family

Ayashiro Yukio went forward and knocked on the door: "Yumi, it's time to get up and eat, Yumi..."

No one answered in the room.

"What's going on? Yumi hasn't woken up yet?" Ayashiro Yukio grabbed the door handle, opened the door and walked in.

The room was pitch black, and Ayashiro Yukio turned on the light switch on the wall.

"Hey, Yumi..."

The voice stopped abruptly, and Ayashiro Yukio, no, it should be everyone's expression suddenly changed.

Yumi Horikoshi, wearing a yukata, sat on the ground leaning against the wall. Scarlet blood flowed from her temple to her fair face, forming a sharp contrast. The bloodstains on the wall behind her had already solidified.

"Yumi——"

Noriko Ayashiro screamed and rushed towards Yumi Horikoshi.

"Wait a moment." Nakamichi Kazushi quickly grabbed her and said loudly, "No one can touch Yumi. No one can enter this room except me, the police officer, and Mori, the detective."

Then he turned to Xiaolan and said, "Xiaolan, go call the police."

"it is good."

Xiaolan came to her senses, nodded, and hurried downstairs.

Maori Kogoro squatted in front of Horikoshi Yumi, his face extremely grim: "She is already dead, there is a bullet mark on her temple, and she is holding a gun in her right hand. Eh... what is this gun... could it be..."

"Mori, is there something wrong with this gun?" Nakamichi Kazushi walked over and asked when he saw the strange look on Kogoro Mori's face.

Maori Kogoro said in a deep voice, "A few days ago, I encountered a robbery of jewelry. The robber was holding the same model of pistol as Yumi's. After I subdued the robber, I couldn't find the pistol. Yumi was also at the scene at that time. Could it be that Yumi picked up the pistol? Did she plan to commit suicide at the class reunion long ago?"

"No, it's too early to draw conclusions now. Let's wait until the police arrive." Nakamichi and Zhidao.

Maori Kogoro nodded: "That's the only way."

Yumi Horikoshi's death cast a shadow over this class reunion. No one would have thought that Yumi Horikoshi, who was chatting and laughing with everyone a few hours ago, would suddenly turn into a cold corpse.

"What? The police will not be here for another two hours?" After hearing Xiaolan's response, Mouri Kogoro raised his voice.

Xiaolan nodded helplessly: "Because there is a celebration going on in this area today, it is very congested everywhere."

"Damn it! How can we wait for two hours?" Maori Kogoro took off the yukata he was wearing and looked at Nakamichi Kazushi. "It seems that we are the only ones left to do a simple autopsy, Nakamichi."

Nakamichi Kazushi nodded: "I understand."

……

Half an hour later, Kogoro Mori and Kazushi Nakamichi walked out of Yumi Horikoshi's room.

Everyone immediately stepped forward to inquire about the situation.

"Maori, have you found out anything?"

Maori Kogoro put on his coat: "Judging from the stiffness of the body, Yumi has been dead for at least seven hours."

Omura Jun calculated, "If we count seven hours from now, it would be around three in the afternoon, which is exactly when we separated from Yumi and went to the billiard room to play billiard."

"That's right." Nakamichi Kazushi nodded. "So, it's not ruled out that Yumi separated from us, returned to her room alone, and shot herself in the head with that pistol."

"So Yumi committed suicide?" Ayashiro Noriko's face was filled with confusion. "But why would she commit suicide? There's no reason at all."

"The reason...Yumi might have already told it a long time ago." Ayashiro Yukio said from the side.

Facing everyone's puzzled expressions, he reminded them, "Have you forgotten? Yumi once lamented that she was still single, the economy was bad, and she might even be laid off. Sometimes she thought about it and really didn't want to live anymore. Now it seems that she wasn't joking at all..."

Everyone was silent.

At this time, Watanabe Toru suddenly interrupted: "Uncle, how did Aunt Yumi shoot herself in the head?"

Maori Kogoro said absentmindedly: "Needless to say, of course I'd hold the 690 gun against my temple, and then..."

He suddenly stood there in a daze, as if a light bulb went off in his head. He ran into Hori Yueyou's room and carefully examined the corpse.

"Maori, have you thought of anything?" Nakamichi Kazushi followed behind him.

Maori Kogoro said solemnly: "Yumi, she may not have committed suicide."

"What?" Nakamichi Hezhi was shocked.

"That's right. If Yumi committed suicide, there should be burn marks on her temple." Maori Kogoro said, "That's because when a gun is fired, the bullet will be ejected from the muzzle along with a stream of hot air. But look at Yumi's temple. Apart from the wound, there are no other marks..."

"I see." Nakamichi Kazushi understood what Maori Kogoro meant: "This means that someone else shot Yumi."

"But..." Kogoro Mouri hesitated to speak.

"What's wrong, Maori?"

"Nothing." Finally, without saying anything, Maori Kogoro straightened up, his voice revealing the complexity and fatigue that could not be concealed: "I'm going to the bathroom."

Looking at the dejected figure of Maori Kogoro, Watanabe Toru knew that he had the rough answer.

142. Xiaoai enters school

In this case, Toru Watanabe was not controlling Kogoro Mori's thinking.

Since this is about the death of his friend, only by letting Kogoro Mouri find out the truth himself can he better accept this fact.

At the suggestion of Toru Watanabe, Kogoro Mori opened the Sherlock Holmes experience card and pointed out in public that the murderer of Yumi Horikoshi was Kazushi Nakamichi.

Faced with the evidence, Nakamichi and Zhi had no way to argue and admitted to the crime.

"I can't forgive that woman," he said. "I've been dating her for 18 years, but every time I proposed, she always rejected me. In desperation, I went on a blind date with my boss's daughter, but when we were getting ready to get married, she threatened me, saying she wouldn't let me be happy. From that point on, she kept sending threatening letters and phone calls to my fiancée. In the end, she even sent her photos of us dating."

"I couldn't stand it any longer, so I told her I was willing to buy all the photos and let her take them to the class reunion. Actually, I was there the day you met Yumi, Maori. Just when I didn't know what to do with Yumi, the gun fell in front of me, and then I came up with this plan. She ruined my life, she is a monster."

"Demon?" Maori Kogoro sneered, "Then what are you, a fellow with the blood of former classmates on your hands?"

"Shut up!!" Nakamichi Kazushi roared. He grabbed Maori Kogoro by the collar and yelled, "You don't know anything at all. What qualifications do you have to criticize me?"

Maori Kogoro looked at him coldly: "I think you are crazy."

He grabbed Nakamichi Kazushi's arm with his backhand and threw the former national individual champion to the ground with an over-the-shoulder throw.

"No matter what your reasons are, I don't want to understand your murderous mood."

Xiaolan looked at her father in amazement. It was not until this moment that she completely believed that her father was right. When he was in college, he was indeed invincible.

Except for the competition, of course.

Nakamichi Kazushi lay on the ground, giving a bitter smile: "You're still the same, Maori. Your skills haven't changed at all."

Maori Kogoro straightened his clothes and looked at him expressionlessly: "Idiot, it's your own heart and body that have aged and regressed."

"Maybe……"

Everyone looked at the two of them silently. No one expressed their opinion on this tragedy. Whether it was Nakamichi Kazushi or Horikoshi Yumi, there was only regret and sigh.

……

Maori Detective Agency.

Watanabe Toru looked at Maori Kogoro who was sitting in his office chair, staring out the window in a daze, and whispered to Xiaolan: "Uncle has been very silent since he came back."

"After all, no one can accept that an old friend did that kind of thing." Xiaolan sighed, her eyes flashing with heartache for her father.

"Do you want to persuade your uncle?"

"No need." Xiaolan shook her head: "Let him stay like this for now, he will recover soon."

"Really?" Watanabe Toru's eyes rolled, and he suddenly said loudly, "Huh? Why is there a photo album of Okino Yoko here?"

Kogoro Mouri, who was in a daze, suddenly turned around, his eyes shining with excitement.

"Ms. Yoko's photo album? Where is it?"

Xiaolan: "..."

……

The next day, Monday.

Didan Primary School.

Toru Watanabe was surrounded by Ayumi and the other two, listening to them talk about the thrilling experiences they had over the weekend.

"I didn't expect that the curator would be the murderer..."

"We almost died, but luckily Conan came up with a solution in the end."

"Our Junior Detective Team has solved another case. That's really impressive."

"..."

Judging from their conversations, Toru Watanabe guessed that they must have encountered a library murder case.

He said with a smile: "You guys are really amazing."

He was tactful enough not to attribute all the credit to Conan, otherwise it would have caused dissatisfaction among the little ones.

"It's a pity that Toru is not here, otherwise he would have found a way." Ayumi felt sorry for Watanabe Toru, but at the same time she had unconditional confidence in him.

Yuan Tai asked curiously, "Xiao Che, where did you go to play over the weekend?"

"I went to the hot spring with Sister Xiaolan and the others." Watanabe Toru said simply without mentioning the case.

Although he didn't come closer, Conan, who had been listening attentively, asked, "Is this the kind of hot spring with separate baths for men and women?"

"Yes." Watanabe Toru said with a smile, "But we are the only guests in the whole hotel, so I am taking a hot spring bath with Xiaolan."

Conan's eyes widened, his envy unconcealed.

The school bell rang.

With the sound of footsteps coming closer and closer, Kobayashi Sumiko walked into the classroom, followed by a little girl.

"．" "Hey, are there new classmates?" Ayumi said in a low voice.

Watanabe Toru ignored her and stared at the girl on the podium without blinking, his pupils slightly shrunken.

"Xiao Che——"

Seeing that her words received no response, Ayumi looked over and saw Watanabe Toru staring at the new student in a trance. She couldn't help but pout slightly and kicked Watanabe Toru.

"What's wrong?" Toru Watanabe came back to his senses and looked at Ayumi in confusion.

Ayumi puffed out her lips and hummed softly.

On the podium, Kobayashi Sumiko clapped her hands to attract everyone's attention, then said, "Dear students, we have a new student in our class. Everyone should get along well with her and not bully her. Okay, now let's ask the new student to introduce herself so everyone can get to know her."

Under the gaze of all the classmates, the girl said calmly: "My name is Huiyuan Ai, please give me your guidance (Wang Nuo)."

Sure enough it was her...

Watanabe Toru thought to himself that he had originally thought that it would take some time before Miyano Shiho became smaller, and maybe they just looked alike, but now it seems that it has indeed happened ahead of time.

I glanced at Conan and saw no expression on his face.

I don't know if the two of them already know each other.

After Huibara introduced herself, Kobayashi Sumiko began to arrange a seat for her: "Then, Huibara-san will sit next to Asano-san."

"Yes."

The girl named Shizuka Asano responded in a clear voice, and then considerately pulled out a chair for Huibara.

Huiyuan nodded slightly and walked down from the podium. Her eyes were cold and serious.

"Ah……"

She suddenly heard a low laugh.

Following the sound, his expression suddenly changed, his rosy complexion gradually lost its color, and his body trembled slightly, as if he had seen the ultimate fear.

143. Kiss the elder sister and the younger sister

Seeing Haibara standing there stupidly, staring blankly at Watanabe Toru, Ayumi pouted even higher.

On the podium, Kobayashi Sumiko coughed lightly and reminded, "Haihara-san, your seat is next to Asano-san."

Huibara woke up as if from a dream, put away the expression on her face, pursed her lips, and walked towards her seat.

Is the passive skill triggered?

Watanabe Toru had clearly seen Haibara's reaction and expression just now. After changing from Miyano Shiho to Haibara Ai, she would overreact whenever a member of the organization appeared in front of her.
