Chapter 227 Love each other as a family
"No, he's dead."
Kogoro Mouri was the first to go in and check.
"Except for Brother Beichuan, none of you should come in to avoid disrupting the scene."
But Conan didn't care what Kogoro Mouri said and went into the room on his own.
Ryuo Hakumoto asked nonchalantly, "Why should we listen to you?"
"Mr. Maori is the famous Maori Kogoro," said Tomoto Kitaro.
Because Gozo Tomoto didn't like detectives, he didn't dare to introduce Kogoro Mori's identity before, and only said that he was a friend.
As the adopted son-in-law, he lived a very miserable life in the Lu Ben family.
Ryuo Hakumoto curled his lips and looked at Kitagawa Taki: "What about him?"
"Mr. Kitagawa is the 'ghost-exorcist detective' that was hotly discussed in the news a few days ago. With the two of them here, this matter will definitely be resolved quickly." Tomoto Kitaro took out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat off his face.
In the entire Hashimoto family, apart from Hashimoto Natsue, no one was sad about Hashimoto Gozo's death.
Maori Kogoro stood up and analyzed:
"Mr. Ryūmoto was most likely murdered forty or fifty minutes ago. I remember there were only a few of us, Miss Xia Jiang, and Butler Suzuki in the restaurant at the time. That means the remaining seven of you are all suspects."
Ryumoto Ryuo folded his arms, leaning against the wall, and said, "Humph, couldn't the old man have committed suicide? He didn't have much time left anyway."
Maori Kogoro said in a deep voice: "The cause of death was a knife wound in the abdomen and excessive bleeding, but the knife is missing. This is definitely not suicide!"
"It might be something like sharp ice," said Ryuo Tomoto. "Isn't that common in mystery novels? It will melt after a while."
Maori Kogoro asked in return: "Would someone who commits suicide make things so complicated?"
Then, he looked at Beichuan Taki, who was standing by and watching, and asked, "Brother Beichuan, what do you think?"
Kitagawa Taki asked Suzuki Kenji: "Butler Suzuki, the door was closed when you came, right?"
The old housekeeper finally recovered, took out a key from his pocket, nodded and said: ""
"Yes, when I came here, the room was locked from the inside. It can only be opened with this key."
Beichuan Taki pointed to the ground and said, "Then he couldn't have committed suicide. Look, there are bloodstains on the door frame, and there are even traces of wiping on the door."
"Then how did you lock the door?" asked Ryuo.
Conan suddenly interrupted and said: "Mr. Ryūmoto was stabbed the moment he left his room, and then he locked the door himself to avoid the murderer."
"It's you again, you little brat!" Kogoro Mouri then noticed Conan and gave him a slap on the face.
Shoji Ryūmoto agreed, "What this kid said makes a lot of sense!"
Maori Kogoro loosened his tie and said, "Ahem, this is probably how the crime happened. So the seven of you who were not in the restaurant at the time are all suspects."
"By the way, I also picked this up at the door."
Suzuki Kenji suddenly remembered something and took out a flower from his pocket.
Ryūmoto Natsue exclaimed, "Isn't this the flower I gave to Xiaowu?"
"Then the murderer is you, Xiaowu!" Ryuomoto was inexplicably excited, pointing at Takeshi and saying, "The old man called him over before dinner!"
Beichuan Taki said calmly: "There are traces of blood wiped at the door. If the flower fell on the ground, the murderer would not have failed to notice it."
"Hmph, maybe Xiao Wu is just being mysterious! Just to lead us to think that way."
I have to say that Ryuo Hōmoto has a lot of ideas.
Akie Taromoto also said: "That's right, and Xiaowu came to the restaurant very late!"
As the person involved, Takeshi Ryūmoto could only offer a feeble explanation: "I didn't!"
At this time, Mariko Ryūmoto spoke up: "Xiaowu, you and your father had a quarrel at that time, right? I heard it when I passed by. You are the son of Zaishiro Yufu back then!"
Takeshi Ryūmoto's pupils shrank and he lowered his head.
The expressions of the other members of the Ryūmoto family also changed.
Maori Kogoro was puzzled and asked, "Zaijo Yufu? Who is that?"
After a moment's hesitation, Hokuto said, "That was the chairman of Zaishiro Industry, who committed suicide after his father took over his company ten years ago."
"Is this true, Xiao Wu?" Ryūmoto Natsue asked hurriedly with a look of disbelief on his face.
Under the constant questioning of Hashimoto Natsue, Hashimoto Takeshi closed his eyes and shouted: "I am Zaishiro Takehiko, the son of Zaishiro Yufu!"
Seeing that Takeshi Hashimoto had admitted it himself, Maori Kogoro stepped forward and said, "So, in order to avenge your father, you deliberately approached Miss Xia Jiang and took the opportunity to kill Mr. Hashimoto!"
Takeshi Ryūmoto reacted violently, "No, I didn't kill anyone, it wasn't me!"
Xia Jiang was disheartened and ran away.
Xiaolan and Sonoko were a little worried, so they followed.
Shoji Ryūmoto stepped forward and grabbed Takeshi Ryūmoto. "I was wrong. I didn't expect you to be so well hidden!"
"Xiao Wu, no, Takehiko Zaishiro, you are finished now!" Ryuo Tomoto did not hide his gloating.
The two men were about to send Takeshi Ryūmoto to a warehouse and lock him up, waiting to be transferred to the police station after arriving in Tokyo tomorrow.
The others just watched and did not stop.
Akie Hashimoto looked at Kogoro Mori and Taki Kitagawa and asked, "Is the case solved now, detectives?"
Kitagawa Taki remained silent, he didn't think the case was over.
Maori Kogoro pondered and said, "The motive is sufficient, but the key evidence is lacking. If we can find the murder weapon and compare the fingerprints, we can completely confirm it."
Ryūmoto Akie sneered, "Maybe he threw it into the sea to destroy the evidence."
Conan ignored the people here and picked up a piece of bread crumbs from the pool of blood.
At the wedding banquet at noon, there was French food prepared by Shoji Tomoto himself. It did contain bread, but Gozo Tomoto really hated Western food and got angry because of it.
Therefore, it is unreasonable for this breadcrumb to appear in Gozo Tomomoto's room.
……
Since the suspect had been temporarily identified, everyone returned to the restaurant without even having dinner.
Obviously, for this family, the death of Gozo Taromoto did not affect their appetite.
"Ryomoto Group now belongs to my husband, and will continue to belong to Ichiro in the future."
Mariko Ryūmoto looked very pleased with herself as she picked up the wine glass and took a sip.
Ryumoto Ryuo complained, "Hey, hey, do you guys want to keep it all for yourself?"
Ryūmoto Akie added, "That's right, there's also Uncle Shoji!"
Shoji Ryoumoto frowned. "My father just passed away. Isn't it a bad idea for you to do this?"
Mariko Ryūmoto taunted her, "Stop pretending! You had to borrow money from your father to open your shop, and he scolded you for it. You need the money too, right? Then cheer up."
Shoji Ryūmoto's face turned grim and he stopped talking.
What a loving family!
Kitagawa Taki and the other two outsiders who were sitting nearby were almost fed up with watching the show.
Finally, the housekeeper couldn't stand it anymore and interrupted everyone, saying, "Well, actually, the master has already made a will. All the property will be inherited by Miss Xia Jiang."
