Conan's All-Member Force Enhancement Plan

On the stage with the curtain drawn, Mio Tokiwa was suspended in the air, splitting Mount Fuji right in the middle of the painting of Mount Fuji in spring snow.

Tokiwa Mio lowered her head, and was completely silent. She looked dead.

Si Xuanyu raised his eyebrows and took a look at Shan Hai Jing. Shan Hai Jing immediately understood and sent a message to Sawada Hiroki.

The head of the Tokiwa Group died here without any warning, and the group will definitely be affected. Si Xuanyu had already made arrangements and asked Sawada Hiroki to prepare to seize the market.

Of course, Si Xuanyu did not directly tell Sawada Hiroki that Tokiwa Mio would die, but only said that they could prepare to further expand market share.

This is also one of the reasons why Hiroki Sawada did not attend the banquet today.

When Kogoro Mouri and Conan Edogawa saw Mio Tokiwa hanging there, they rushed over immediately, some called the police and some tried to rescue her.

Standing on the stage, Hidehiko Kazama and Minemi Kisaragi looked stunned. Chihana Sawaguchi, who was working at the control console backstage, was so scared that she covered her mouth to hide the scream that was about to burst out.

Seeing these people like this, Maori Kogoro immediately took control of the situation: "Put them down quickly! Pull down the curtain! Quick!"

Sawaguchi Chi Nami finally came back to her senses and nodded frantically: "Okay, okay."

Then he started to operate with trembling hands.

Mio Tokiwa was quickly put down. Kogoro Mori caught her and slowly put her on the ground. He then felt her pulse. After confirming her death, he was a little dejected.

Conan Edogawa has already started observing the corpse.

Mio Tokiwa wore a pearl necklace today. There was a transparent and tough thread tied to the pearl necklace, which was connected to the painting above. It looked like the person was strangled to death by the thread.

Maori Kogoro accidentally glanced to the right and immediately exclaimed: "Isn't that a small wine glass?!"

Edogawa Conan followed his line of sight and saw a small wine glass in the center of the stage. The difference was that this one was complete.

Edogawa Conan was also surprised: "Small wine glass! Could it be this too?"

Megure Juzo, who was downstairs, responded to the call very quickly.

After going upstairs, they quickly secured the scene.

The Tokiwa Group also sent people to appease the guests at the scene.

Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko came to their senses and immediately remembered what Si Xuanyu said. The murder weapon was in the crutch. Could it be true?

Kogoro Mouri and Conan Edogawa obviously also remembered Si Xuanyu's "casual guess". They instinctively looked at the cane in Kisaragi Minemizu's hand. Kisaragi Minemizu noticed the looks in their eyes and unconsciously tightened his hand holding the cane.

Megure Jusan didn't know what Si Xuanyu had said, so he asked someone to take down the painting of Fuji in Spring Snow that was tied to the pearl necklace on Tokiwa Mio's neck.

Megure Jusan observed the situation and said, "It seems that Tokiwa Mio's necklace was tied with something similar to piano wire, which went around the piano wire in the back passage and pulled Tokiwa Mio up when the painting was lowered."

After learning that the only people on the stage with Tokiwa Mio at that time were Kazama Hidehiko and Kisaragi Minemizu, Megure Juzo asked the two to stand back in their original positions, and also called Chiba Kazunobu to stand in Tokiwa Mio's original position to recreate the scene.

There are special standing marks on the stage, so it is not difficult to find.

After they stood up, Megure Jusan looked at Sawaguchi Chinami and said, "Miss Sawaguchi was beside the stage, right?"

Sawaguchi Chinami still looked a little frightened: "Yes, yes, I was operating the curtain and lights at the control desk over there."

Megure Jusan nodded to show his understanding: "Do you know where that pearl necklace came from?"

Sawaguchi Chinami said she only knew that it was a gift from someone to Tokiwa Mio, and she was not very clear about the details.

The painting of Spring Snow on Fuji was delivered last night, under the supervision of its original artist, Minemizu Kisaragi.

Sato Miwako glanced at Kisaragi Minemizu and said, "In other words, the person who has the best chance of pulling off this piano wire trick is Kisaragi-san."

Ruyuefengshui's eyebrows moved slightly: "Unfortunately, I knew nothing about this."

Maori Kogoro finally found an opportunity to speak: "Speaking of this, Mr. Kisaragi, I heard that you were very angry because Tokiwa Mio bought your painting and then sold it at a high price, right?"

Hearing what Maori Kogoro said, Kisaragi Minemizu was not panicked at all, but said confidently: "I will not kill people for such a thing. And from what you just said, it sounds like this should be a serial murder case, right?

If it is true as you said, then I have an alibi when the second incident with Yuan Jiaming happened. Doesn't this prove that I am not the murderer?"

Takagi Wataru leaned close to Megure Jusan's ear and whispered, "We didn't let these people see the small wine glass at the scene before, so he probably wouldn't do something like placing a small wine glass to disguise it as a serial murder case."

Conan Edogawa heard what Takagi Wataru and Kisaragi Minemizu said, and immediately said, "But the time when the wine glass was placed at the scene by Hara Yoshiaki should be a long time apart from the time of the murder. In that case, Mr. Kisaragi's alibi will be invalid."

Megure Jusan was stunned when he heard this: "What do you mean?"

At this time, Si Xuanyu, Mao Lilan and others also came up. When Huiyuan Ai heard Megure Jusan's question, she explained: "At that time, we saw the fragments of the small wine glass in the evidence bag. There was no blood on it, but what we saw at the scene was clearly a small wine glass placed on a pool of blood."

Mao Lilan suddenly realized: "So the small wine glass was put there as a disguise after the blood had solidified?"

Yoshida Ayumi and the other two tried hard to recall what they saw at that time, but they could not remember whether there was blood on the wine glass. However, there was no doubt that it was placed in a pool of blood at the scene.

Megure Juzo and the police officers had studied the evidence, and after being reminded of this, he remembered that the small wine glass that Hara Jiaming had left at the scene was indeed very clean.

If that's the case, then Ruyue Fengshui has no way to prove his alibi.

So the police's suspicion was once again focused on Minemizu Kisaragi. Seeing this, Kogoro Mori very directly asked to see Minemizu Kisaragi's walking stick.

Kisaragi Minemizu's face changed. Megure Juzo still trusted Mori Kogoro very much, so he immediately asked the police officers to go forward and search for evidence.

Then he took the cane out of Kisaragi Minemizu's hand, and from it fell out a broken pearl necklace that looked exactly the same as the one on Tokiwa Mio's neck.

Megure Jusan asked the forensic officer to collect the pearls and the cane, then looked at Kisaragi Minemizu: "Mr. Kisaragi, please explain."
