As soon as these words were spoken, the people present had different expressions.

Hattori Heiji agreed with this, Mori Ran was outraged, and Mori Kogoro, who had a daughter, looked at Takayoshi Tsujimura with contempt.

Conan Edogawa thought to himself: The guy with the most vicious tongue is Si Xuanyu.

Katsuragi Sachiko pursed her lips, glanced at Takayoshi Tsujimura who did not offer any help, lowered her head and said nothing.

Takayoshi Tsujimura's face turned pale. He didn't say anything before because Kimie Tsujimura was his stepmother. Although he despised Kimie Tsujimura in his heart and thought that she was just a second wife, he didn't dare to confront his elders directly.

Of course, it was also because he was not the one being scolded, so his girlfriend being scolded did not really make Takayoshi Tsujimura angry, it just made him feel a little embarrassed.

It was different now. Si Xuanyu's words were directed at Takayoshi Tsujimura himself. Takayoshi Tsujimura would not tolerate it and was about to curse back. Unexpectedly, before he could say anything, Takayoshi Tsujimura Gongjie interrupted him and said, "Okay, stop talking, guests, follow me up to see the master."

Takayoshi Tsujimura felt a lump in his heart, but when Kimie Tsujimura brought up his father, Takayoshi Tsujimura didn't dare to say anything.

Si Xuanyu and his group didn't care what Tsujimura Takayoshi thought, and followed Tsujimura Koie upstairs.

Halfway up, he saw an old man standing on the stairs. He was startled and said, "Why, Dad, you haven't gone out yet?"

The old man was Tsujimura Toshimitsu, the father-in-law of Tsujimura Kimie. He smiled and pretended to be dissatisfied: "What are you talking about? I was just about to show you this fish I caught."

Everyone was puzzled because they didn't see Tsujimura Toshimitsu having any fish in his hand.

Toshimitsu Tsujimura took his hands from behind his back and brought them in front of him. In his hands, he held a roll of paper. He unfolded the paper and saw a fish drawn on it.

Tsujimura Toshimitsu smiled widely: "Clang clang~ How is it? Is this fish big?"

Si Xuanyu and the others could only smile politely at this cold humor, while Tsujimura Gongjiang had an indifferent expression on his face: "It is indeed quite big. I will be there soon. Please wait for me in the Japanese-style room first."

Tsujimura Toshimitsu didn't really care whether anyone understood his humor. He put away the paper roll, said "OK", and went downstairs.

Tsujimura Kimie led everyone to the study and knocked on the door: "Husband, Mr. Maori is here, husband?"

The sound of opera was heard in the study, but no one responded.

Tsujimura Kimie searched for the key in his bag while muttering, "That's strange. Is it not in there?"

I took out the key and opened the door of the study, and the sound of the opera became clearer.

In the study, a fat man was sitting at the desk, supporting his head with his hands, and seemed to be asleep. There was a pile of books on the side of the desk near the door, almost blocking the entire face that was supported by his hands on the desk.

Shan Hai Jing quietly complained: "The person who put this pile of books must have often used this trick to fall asleep in class when he was in school."

Mao Lilan, Edogawa Conan, and Hattori Heiji who are still in school: ...That makes sense.

Seeing what was going on in the study, Tsujimura Kimie pretended to complain, "Husband? You were in the study? Really, you just kept the stereo on and didn't even turn it off, and you actually fell asleep like that."

The others followed him into the study. Maori Kogoro kept a normal social distance and stood not far from the door, not too close to the desk. Edogawa Conan and Hattori Heiji moved closer to the speakers: "There's an opera playing."

Si Xuanyu and the Classic of Mountains and Seas on his shoulder took Mao Li Ran closer to the desk to see if they could witness the scene.

However, Si Xuanyu discovered that he did not hear any unusual sounds other than the opera, and no matter what angle he looked at, he could not see the face of the person in front of the desk.

The same is true for Shan Hai Jing.

One man and one spirit: ...Okay.

After entering the study, Tsujimura Kimie pushed her husband who was sitting on the desk a few times: "Husband? Husband, don't sleep, husband? Old..."

After shouting for a long time and pushing several times, the man not only did not wake up, but after being pushed several times, he fell to the side under the force of Tsujimura Kimie and fell heavily to the ground.

This unusual movement immediately attracted the attention of detectives.

Tsujimura Kimie anxiously threw himself on the fallen man, shaking him and calling out, "Husband, what's wrong with you? Wake up, husband!"

Hattori Heiji had already squatted down to check the pulse of the fallen man. After a moment, Hattori Heiji announced: "It's useless, he is dead."

When Kogoro Mouri arrived at the place, he had already consciously dialed out Megure Juzo's number. When he heard what Hattori Heiji said, he immediately dialed the number and called the police.

Conan Edogawa has entered detective mode, squatting beside the corpse without any scruples, observing with a serious expression.

The body was still warm, and its lips had just begun to turn purple. There was a small red dot at the base of the hair on the back of the neck. Could it be that...

Edogawa Conan looked around and saw a thin reflective needle on the ground. When he was about to crawl over to pick up the needle, he bumped into Hattori Heiji who was also looking for him.

"It hurts!"

"very painful!"

They both cried out in pain at the same time.

Ran Mouri also came to her senses and discovered that the two people had bumped into each other. She was startled. Conan, this guy, didn't even bother to restrain himself even with a detective here.

She immediately ran over and picked up Edogawa Conan: "Conan, are you okay? You still have a cold. Let's go to the side and have a good rest."

Just as Hattori Heiji was about to blame the child for making trouble, he was interrupted by Mori Ran, so he didn't feel like continuing.

Edogawa Conan was not convinced, but he didn't dare to make too much noise. After all, he had just made a mistake and was scolded not long ago.

Mao Lilan pushed Edogawa Conan aside, gave a wink to Si Xuanyu, and received a reassuring smile from Si Xuanyu, which made her feel slightly relieved.

Megure Juzo quickly led a team to the scene and cordoned off and inspected it.

"The deceased is Tsujimura Isao, 54 years old, and there happened to be a detective at the scene where the body was found."

Megure Jusan looked at Maori Kogoro with resentment and condemnation in his eyes, but Maori Kogoro seemed unaware of it and saluted with a smile: "That's right! Inspector Megure, it's me, Maori Kogoro!"

Megure Jusan had a deadpan expression on his face: "Then, this must be a murder, Brother Mori."

Maori Kogoro laughed dryly and scratched his head: "Well, I don't see any obvious external injuries on him, maybe..."

"Can you please take a closer look at the body?"

Before Maori Kogoro could finish his words, he was interrupted by a disappointed childish voice. Maori Kogoro and Megure Jusan looked down and saw Edogawa Conan pointing at the corpse with a serious face: "This must be..."

"Poison."

"That's right, it's poisoning... huh?"
