Chapter 408 The Bitter Meat Scheme
Nana Koyamauchi's expression changed slightly, but she quickly concealed it.
Shishino Nagaaki spread his hands and said, "There are some minor conflicts, but it's impossible to kill someone over such a trivial matter, right?"
Inspector Megure said seriously: "Mr. Yongming, that's not necessarily true!"
He has been a police officer for many years. What kind of bizarre motives for murder has he not seen?
You may think it is a trivial matter, but others may hate you to the core.
Shishino Nagaaki said, "Well, actually it was because of the photography that I had a dispute with someone named Yamashita Toru."
Inspector Megure looked at the others and asked, "Do you know this man named Yamagami Toru?"
Several people shook their heads.
Inspector Megure pinched his chin and said thoughtfully, "Then it seems that this person is not him."
Kitagawa Taki had no intention of exposing Zemu Gongping, he would just find an opportunity to take him away.
Uehara Yui interrupted and asked, "May I ask why you came here?"
Shishino Nagaaki said, "Mr. Asahi's secretary called me and asked me to come here at three o'clock. He said that Mr. Asahi really appreciated my work and probably wanted me to take photos for publicity."
Peter Ford said, "My secretary also called me, and the reason was similar to Mr. Yongming's."
"I'm different. I even received a gift."
Nana Koyama took out a small bottle from her bag and said, "This is the nail polish. It's from France and it's quite expensive."
Shiratori Jinzaburo looked at Nishina Catfish and asked, "Where's Mr. Nishina?"
"I'm about the same as them." Renke Catfish's face looked unhappy. If he had known that he could see the sea from the restaurant, he would not have come here. This place was really not very friendly to him.
Uehara Yui narrowed her eyes and said, "It was the secretary who contacted them all, using the same excuse. The key point is that they all agreed to meet at three o'clock. There might be something wrong with that secretary."
Inspector Megure nodded in agreement.
He is very optimistic about Uehara Yui, who can often point out the key points during the investigation process.
Although she has just arrived at the Metropolitan Police Department, she has already made some achievements. Last time, she found out the truth of a robbery and murder case and found the real murderer.
What he didn't know was that it was Kitagawa Taki who discovered this and just gave all the credit to Uehara Yui.
Nana Koyama slammed the table and said, "Then what are we still doing here?"
At this moment, Peter Ford noticed a piece of paper under the table. He picked it up and took a look, then gave it to Zemu Gongping:
"Mr. Zemu, this is for you."
Sawaki Kohei took it and read it aloud: "From Mr. Sawaki Kohei: Your favorite wine is on shelf M18 in the wine cellar. Could you please get it and share it with everyone? The key is on the counter. Please, Asahi Katsuyoshi."
"It seems that Mr. Asahi knew we were coming. Officer Uehara's speculation..." Sawaki Kohei didn't continue, but his meaning was very clear.
Uehara Yui frowned slightly and said, "Can you show it to me?"
Sawaki Kouhei handed the paper to Uehara Yui.
Yui Uehara took a tour but her doubts were not dispelled.
If it was really Xu Shengyi who invited him, then why hasn't he shown up yet?
They also used a redundant method of sending letters to inform guests to pick up the wine themselves.
Moreover, there is not a single waiter in such a large restaurant. How can this be considered an invitation?
Conan didn't figure out the connection for a while. What Uehara Yui said made sense. This matter really revealed something strange.
Nana Koyamauchi, who had just been talking about leaving, immediately became interested. The wine in the wine cellar of a restaurant like this must be worth a lot of money!
"I want to check out the wine here too!"
Others echoed.
"Then let's go together." Zemu Gongping took the key from the envelope on the counter.
……
After opening the door of the wine cellar, Zemu Gongping fumbled to turn on the light.
Everyone opened their mouths in amazement at the dazzling array of wines before them.
The wine cellar is very large, with many wine racks filled with various red wines.
"It's a bit cold in here!" Kogoro Mouri looked around.
"Actually, the temperature in here is quite high. The ideal temperature is between ten and fourteen degrees." Zemu Gongping glanced at the temperature control device next to him and said, "The temperature here is seventeen degrees."
"Inspector, look, these are all expensive wines." Shiratori Renzaburo walked to a wine rack and listed them like the back of his hand: "Romanee-Conti, Petrus, Le Pin..."
Inspector Megure doesn't know as much about alcohol as the rich second-generation Shiratori Jinzaburo.
Sawaki Gonghe took a look and followed the number to the wine rack No. 18, and Conan followed him.
Just as he was about to get close to the wine rack, Conan suddenly spotted a thin line due to his height advantage. He shouted, "Danger!"
But Zemu Gongping had already kicked the string, and a crossbow arrow was fired at him. He narrowly avoided it, and the crossbow arrow went straight through the wine barrel opposite.
Others came running over upon hearing the noise.
Inspector Megure quickly asked, "What's going on?"
Sawaki Gonghei looked terrified and pointed at the crossbow on the barrel, "If Conan hadn't reminded me just now, I would have been the one shot."
Kitagawa Taki glanced at the acting Zemu Gonghei, and thought that this self-torture trick was not enough, being hit by an arrow would be real enough.
Inspector Megure took a closer look and said, "This is the same arrow that hit me!"
Yui Uehara held her chin in her hand and thought, "It seems that the letter was left by the murderer, deliberately luring Mr. Sawaki here."
"Inspector Megure, there is a crossbow here!" Conan said, pointing to the wine rack opposite.
"Eight of Spades!" Shiratori Renzaburo picked up the poker cards next to him with his handkerchief.
Beichuan Taki said: "I'm afraid Asahi Katsuyoshi has met with an accident."
"I think we should get out of here quickly!"
Nana Koyama swallowed her saliva and completely lost her previous interest. After all, after eight was seven, and it would be her turn soon.
Inspector Megure waved his hand and said, "Let's go!"
……
When I arrived at the entrance, the door was sealed.
After checking the place, Shiratori Renzaburo said, "Inspector, this place is electronically locked and we can't get out!"
Conan's eyes narrowed. There was no cell phone signal here. The murderer wanted to trap them. The murderer should also be in the restaurant. But they just checked and didn't find anyone. Could there be a secret room?
Or is the murderer among these people?
"what--"
A scream broke his thoughts.
Nana Koyama pointed at the glass wall in the distance, and outside was the body of Katsuyoshi Asahi!
There was a nine of spades in his breast pocket.
Inspector Megure exclaimed in shock: "Asahi Katsuyoshi has indeed been murdered!"
Uehara Yui said quickly, "Inspector, I'll go check the escape exit!"
Not long after, she returned.
Facing everyone's gaze, she shook her head and said, "The escape exit has been blocked with cement."
"What should we do?" Nana Koyama panicked.
"There's no other way. I have to go back to the restaurant first."
Kitagawa Taki had no interest in saving this woman.
