The famous criminal in the world of Conan

Sakuma continued to speak quietly,

"In fact, the place where Xiangtian put the coffee was closer to me at that time."

"So, I got the coffee before Yagami."

"In other words, Yagami actually took a cup of coffee that Miss Inoue and I had left over."

"this........."

Kogoro Mori was stunned for a moment and subconsciously looked at Inoue Ryoko.

It was Inoue Ryoko who responded to Kogoro Mori and nodded hesitantly.

Kogoro Mori was confused.

He didn't expect that his reasoning was not only accused by Xiangtian of being too arbitrary in logic, but also denied by Sakuma based on actual facts.

Judging from the current situation, the possibility that Koda committed murder is actually low. The more likely possibility is that Sakuma was involved in the incident.

But......

Kogoro Mouri secretly clenched his fists under the table. The attitude of this kid, Koda, was really uncomfortable.

It wasn't just Kogoro Mouri who thought so. Conan and Toru Amuro next to him also narrowed their eyes.

According to the current course of the case, it is indeed possible that Sakuma was the only one who poisoned Yasha's coffee.

However, their intuition told them that this matter was definitely not that simple.

Conan even recalled the case that happened at the Teitan High School school festival.

That case had some similarities to this one. Both involved drinks, and both were situations where it was a choice between two options. The murderer was not present at the time, but he still accurately poisoned the person he wanted to kill.

However, that case is somewhat different from this one.

First of all, in that case, the two cups of the same drink were both cold coffee at first and then turned into ice cola, while in this case, they were both hot coffee.

Whether it is iced cola or iced coffee, there are ice cubes in it. The presence of ice cubes creates a certain amount of room for manipulation.

In fact, the murder in that case was indeed committed using ice.

As long as the person who poisoned the cups put poisoned ice cubes in both cups and did not eat her own portion of ice cubes, and the unsuspecting deceased would eat the remaining portion of ice cubes, the method of precise poisoning would naturally be achieved.

However, this case was different. Nothing could be put into the hot coffee. Not even saccharin and milk. That was why Xiangtian took the initiative to go out and get it.

In this situation, Conan and Toru Amuro could not imagine how Koda could have accurately delivered the poisoned coffee to Yasha's hands if it was him who poisoned the coffee.

In comparison, Sakuma's operability is much greater, but still limited.

After all, it was Koda who poured the coffee, and it was also Koda who brought it back. If Sakuma poisoned it, he must have thrown the poison in in front of both of them.

To be honest, it is very difficult to do such a thing in broad daylight.

Sakuma is not a magician, he is just a screenwriter. He can't possibly practice his skills hard just for this one time, right?

Moreover, Sakuma is Yagami's junior after all. If Yagami, as his senior, took the coffee first, Sakuma would not be able to say a word, which would directly lead to the failure of the murder.

Similarly, if Xiangtian had not gone to get the saccharin and milk, he would most likely have finished serving the coffee himself this time, and it would not have been Sakuma Tsune's turn to do this.

In short, if Sakuma is the murderer, then he must be satisfied this time: he has practiced the technique hard, Yagami did not take the coffee first, and Kada must have been careless in removing the saccharin and milk.

Of these three conditions, the first one can be controlled, but the second and third ones are completely dependent on fate!

As a mystery writer, Sakuma would not kill people in such a luck-based way.

However, if this is the case, the case will come to a standstill......

"I see!"

Although he was overturned by Sakuma's words, Kogoro Mori was still a little annoyed.

But he immediately cheered up, a light bulb went off in his head, and he pointed at Xiangtian and shouted,

"You don't have any tricks at all!"

what? !

Everyone was shocked, and a hint of panic flashed in Xiangtian's eyes.

He concealed his expression so well that no one else noticed it, except Bai Masong who caught a glimpse of it.

I only heard Maori Kogoro continue,

"Because you are just gambling! You are gambling on your luck!"

"Xiangtian, you've gone crazy. You're just betting that this cup of coffee will end up in Mr. Yagami's hands. You're just betting on your luck!"

Ah this...

Kogoro Mori's words immediately amused everyone who had originally had serious faces.

Xiangtian was so angry that he laughed.

"Mr. Maori, can you please be more logical when speaking?"

"I'm a normal person, how could I do something like this, randomly poisoning someone?"

"you............"

Kogoro Mori wanted to say something else.

Sato Miwako also held her forehead speechlessly and said helplessly,

"Mr. Maori, please don't be too anxious."

Conan laughed speechlessly. Uncle Maori didn't seem to have made any progress. He even said something like relying on luck.

Toru Amuro is already considering whether his decision to become a disciple was the right one.

Even if he does not covet Kogoro Mori's reasoning ability, it would be troublesome if he was influenced by him and his IQ dropped.

"Okay, Mr. Maori, don't make such jokes in the future."

Xiangtian said with a serious face.

He looked at the crowd again.

"So, can we wrap up our questioning now?"

this......

Everyone was silent.

They actually wanted to continue the stalemate for a while, after all, there was really something wrong with Xiangtian.

However, the current situation does not seem to be enough for them to continue the stalemate.

Just as everyone began to fall silent, Xiangtian's calm voice sounded again.

"White Horse Officer,"

Xiangtian now gave up the confrontation with Maori Kogoro and turned his gaze to Hakuba Matsu. He knew that although Maori Kogoro was shouting happily, the only commander-in-chief and the person in charge of the overall situation was Hakuba Matsu, who had not said a word from the beginning to now.

"Mr. Yagami died unexpectedly, but our drama "The Great Detective" cannot stop."

"We also have to catch up with Mr. Yagami's storyline. Time is very precious."

"Ms. Inoue, Mr. Sakuma, you agree, right?"

"Ah, this... is also true."

Sakuma was slightly stunned, and then said helplessly that what Koda said was right.

Inoue Ryoko had no choice but to nod.

Whether Xiangtian is the murderer or not is not particularly important to them.

The important thing is that this TV drama about the famous detective has to continue, and they do have to rush back to do some work.

Inoue Ryoko needs to find someone to make up for the deceased Yagami's part in the writing ratio. At the moment, the most suitable person is Koda, who is also a screenwriter for the detective melodrama team.

Previously, the plot writing of Detective Madoka was approximately 40% by Yagami, 40% by Sakuma, and 20% by Koda.

Now that Yagami is dead, the best case scenario is that Koda and Sakuma will each write the script with a 50% ratio.

But this is only the best case scenario...

Inoue Ryoko felt helpless, but she was not a fool. Looking at the attitude of Kogoro Mori and the other people opposite her, she probably guessed that these detective police officers probably regarded Koda as the murderer, and now they just lacked the methods, evidence and logic to solve the case.

It would be fine if they were wrong, but if they were right, Xiangtian would have to go to jail.

Well, in the end, she still has to find another screenwriter outside to take over the script writing of Detective Madoka, otherwise it would be impossible for Sakuma to do it alone.

It is not an easy task to find another screenwriter outside.

She doesn't want those with poor abilities, and those with strong abilities may not necessarily be willing to come.

Those who are famous basically already have jobs; for those who are not famous, finding a capable person is like panning for gold in the sand. Not everyone is as young and capable as Xiangtian.

Sakuma also had the same idea as Inoue Ryoko.

Now that Yagami is dead, it's unknown how long Kōda can hold on. If both of them are gone, he will be very busy for some time. After all, it will take time to find another screenwriter, and the next script for Detective Interlude will be ready soon.

All in all, everyone is busy, no matter who they are.

So when Xiangtian said this, they had no choice but to agree.

"I see, is this why you killed Mr. Yagami?"

Just as Xiangtian was smiling and waiting for Baimasong's answer.

Bai Masong only replied to him indifferently with this sentence.

Xiangtian frowned slightly, straightened up, put his hands on the table to support his chin, and stared at Bai Masong who was sitting opposite him.

"Officer White Horse, what do you mean by this?"

He felt a little uneasy from Baimasong's sudden words.
