Stay away from Conan.

Chapter 494 Ask
"In the main house, Yu Takagi was there watching them."

Miwako Sato replied:

"Because the 'Forgotten Detective' had an accident, our police are basically sure that the suspect is among the group of people, so we will completely control the scene today."

Hearing such an explanation, Gao Yuan couldn't help smiling slightly:
"Then it seems that it is necessary to go to the main house and have a good chat with them!"

……

"I'm Toda's younger brother, Takeki Yamauchi."

Sitting at the dining table in the main house, the man opposite Gao Yuan said so.

At first glance, although he and his elder brother were similar in age, the two brothers did not look alike at all.

"I'm Tamiko."

Next, next to Kenki Yamauchi, the speaker was a thin middle-aged woman. She coughed a few times as she spoke, perhaps because of the collapse of the pillars of the family, she looked quite weak.

Then, beside Tamiko, were two young men.

One is a cute-looking girl with long hair who looks a little quiet, and the other is a boy who wants to look fashionable through hairstyle and dress, but is actually a thin student.

Among them, the girl’s name is Nana Yamauchi, the daughter of the victim; the boy’s name is Yuta Yamauchi, the son of Takeki Yamauchi, who is also the nephew of the victim.

"Thinking about your current situation, I don't need to say anything more."

After getting a general understanding of the people present, Miwako Sato couldn't help saying seriously:

"Because the detective who came to investigate in the morning was given sleeping pills by one of you, and he hasn't woken up yet. From this, we can judge that the real murderer who killed Mr. Yamauchi Toda is probably among you. So, if you want to rule out your suspicions, cooperate with the investigation!"

Because of Miwako Sato's heroic appearance and her unquestionable tone, the four suspects present couldn't help but be captured by her aura, and nodded silently.

As for this, Takagi She on the side couldn't help scratching his head in embarrassment, as if they didn't cooperate like this when he led people to guard these people in the main house before.

Regarding this, looking at the attitudes of the four people at this time, Gao Yuan couldn't help asking:
"First, Mr. Takeki Yamauchi, where and what were you doing yesterday morning?"

According to the previous investigation by the police, Takeki Yamauchi and Tamiko Yamauchi did not have an alibi, so Gao Yuan asked them first.

"I went for a walk."

Jianshu Yamauchi couldn't help saying:
"There is a small waterfall nearby. I went there to see the scenery. After that, I walked around the Tama River. When I came home in the evening, I found several police cars parked at the door. I was shocked. I didn't expect My brother actually..."

Takeki Yamauchi shook his head and lamented.

As for such a statement, Gao Yuan understood why the other party "had no alibi". After all, it was really difficult to find witnesses for the so-called walking talk in this kind of place.

"Where's Ms. Yamauchi?"

Gao Yuan asked another person who "had no alibi" without reporting any expectations.

"I... have been sleeping on the second floor during the day yesterday, and I have a bit of a cold these days."

Tamiko Yamauchi said with some guilt.

"You've been alone in the room?"

Gao Yuan asked.

"Yes, yes...cough cough..."

Tamiko Yamauchi coughed, and replied in this way, but Gao Yuan looked at the other party's face really not very well, so he didn't continue to ask, and turned his focus to the other two young people.

"Then what about you two?"

Gao Yuan asked.

"We watch TV together in the kitchen."

Yuta Yamauchi first replied:
"Yesterday happened to be broadcasting "The Case Book of High School Girl Detective Koyuki". Nana and I really like this drama. Isn't it, Nana?"

"kindness."

When Nana Yamauchi heard that she was being asked, she couldn't help but nodded.

"Oh! "The Case Book of High School Girl Detective Koyuki", is the original work from the TV series by Yusaku Kudo? I like it too!"

Hearing what the other party said, Gao Yuan responded briefly, and at the same time followed the point mentioned in their words, and turned to look at the kitchen next to the restaurant——

I saw that, as part of the mansion, the kitchen took up an entire room, and there were chairs and a TV set in it.

And, through the glass windows on the terrace, you can just see the cherry trees in the courtyard.Just looking at it from this position, the cherry tree just blocked the door of the other house.

"However, don't you usually watch TV in the living room? There must be a TV there too."

Looking back, Gao Yuan couldn't help asking.

"Because Nana has to do laundry and prepare lunch, that's why she stayed in the kitchen all the time."

Yamauchi Yuta replied involuntarily.

Regarding Yuta Yamauchi's answer, Takato frowned slightly, and turned his gaze to Nana Yamauchi.

Seeing Takato looking at her, Nana Yamauchi couldn't help but nodded, affirming Yuta Yamauchi's remarks.

So Gao Yuan continued to ask:

"You can see the courtyard from the kitchen. Did you find anything strange yesterday?"

"Didn't notice anything..."

The two people who were questioned met their eyes and spoke as if confirming each other. Then Nana Yamauchi suddenly said:
"However, just after eleven o'clock, I heard the sound of a chainsaw. But I thought it was Dad making something again, so I didn't pay special attention."

"Didn't you see anyone walking near the other house?"

Gao Yuan continued to ask.

"No, because we've been watching TV shows."

Yamauchi Yuta seemed to be a little impatient when asked.

"Me too, I kept the curtains closed when I slept, so I didn't pay attention to anything..."

Tamiko Yamauchi said apologetically.

In this regard, Gao Yuan nodded slightly, and then said:

"Okay, then I'll stop here first, and you all go back to your respective rooms first."

After finishing speaking, Gao Yuan motioned to Miwako Sato beside him, so under the command of Miwako Sato, the police officers present took the four of them back to their respective rooms and continued to accept the temporary supervision of the police.

"No gain, Mr. Wise."

As for the result of this inquiry, Sato Miwako also said helplessly.

"Yeah, this is the same as the result of our previous inquiry, and there is nothing new."

Takagi Tsubasa couldn't help but agree:
"Compared to this, we haven't identified the specific suspect yet..."

"Speaking of which, what has that Miss Detective been doing outside? Could it be that you, Mr. Wise, are actually delaying the time and asking her to investigate?"

Saying that, Miwako Sato couldn't help looking at Hongko Koizumi who was standing on the steps outside the house, walking around aimlessly.

"Oh... no."

Gao Yuan couldn't help but smile helplessly and said:

"Officer Sato, Officer Takagi. Next, I need you to investigate something. If my assumption is correct, I should be able to find out who the murderer is!"

Saying this, Gao Yuan couldn't help showing a confident smile on his face.
