Conan and Gin are both my brothers, what's wrong with meeting them once?

"minister!!"

Oto Kaito was the first to rush out.

Kogoro Mouri's face darkened: "Ichima, lead the way!"

Kazuma Kudo picked up Conan and, along with Kogoro Mouri, took the lead, with Ran quickly following behind.

Seeing this, the others also crowded into the development department.

The development department is a large, independent office area, and the office of the development manager, Kohei Yoshida, is located in a suite within that area.

While almost everyone in the company was gathered in the development department, Kogoro Mouri and his group had already entered the office of the deceased Kohei Yoshida.

"Minister! Minister!"

Kaito Oto shook Yoshida Kohei hard.

Kogoro Mori quickly grabbed his shoulders: "He's dead! Be careful not to disturb the scene! And you guys! Don't come in!"

After saying that, he dragged Oto Kaito out and began questioning several suspicious individuals.

Conan turned around with practiced ease: "Ran-neechan, call the police!"

While Ran was calling the police, Conan was already carefully observing the deceased's office and beginning to gather clues.

Kudo Kazuma absorbed the spirit, then glanced at Yoshida Kohei's panicked soul standing to the side, and couldn't help but blink.

Why does it feel so strange to have classic scenes from anime brought to life in front of you?

Seeing the main characters all busy with their own tasks, Kazuma Kudo actually had the illusion that he was watching an anime live...

"Hey, hey—" Conan reached out and tugged at his bratty younger brother's shirt, "What are you spacing out for? Have you figured out who the culprit is?"

Although he didn't think his younger brother could be considered a detective, nor did he think his brother's method of solving cases without even needing a reasoning process count as solving a case, at least he could quickly find the murderer...

Since it's the younger brother's method, it's not that it can't be used.

Kazuma Kudo shook his head and lowered his voice: "No... do you have any clues?"

The deceased himself was completely bewildered; how could he know who the murderer was?

“A little…” Conan frowned slightly, “but not enough.”

Kazuma Kudo: "Let's hear what Uncle Mori has to say!"

Conan: "Huh?"

Doesn't Kazuma know that he's the one who makes all of Uncle Mori's brilliant deductions?

Why do we need to specifically ask Uncle Mori?

Is there something special about Uncle Mori?

Just as he was wondering what was going on, Inspector Megure arrived with his men.

"Brother Edogawa, I heard something happened to your company? Do you have any leads?"

Kazuma Kudo said, "I don't have any ideas right now, let's hear what Uncle Mori has to say."

Upon hearing this, Kogoro Mouri pointed to Masato Mashima, who had been handing over the compiled suggestions to Kohei Yoshida: "Need I say more? It's definitely you!"

"While everyone was packing up and preparing to leave, you went to see Minister Yoshida alone and killed him. Wasn't that your best opportunity? Besides, you were the only one without an alibi at the time, weren't you?"

Kazuma Kudo nodded silently. Okay, it seems it's not Masato Mashima.

Masato Mashima was startled: "Mr. Mori, what are you talking about! It was a last-minute decision to send me to deliver the proposal materials, and I even heard the minister speaking when I went to deliver them!"

"Why couldn't it be you? You had every motive to kill!" Naoto Komatsu suddenly accused. "After the department head was called in for a reprimand by the president, he gave you a good scolding for your poor performance. Everyone in the development department saw it!"

"That night we went to an izakaya for drinks, and you even said something about wanting Minister Yoshida to die sooner!"

"You have the nerve to say that!" Masato Mashima retorted. "The idea for that little game was suggested by the department head, but you clearly said it was your idea. The department head came up with it first! Oto was there too, wasn't he, Oto!"

Not only did he turn around and bite back, Masato Mashima also dragged Kaito Obō into the mess: "Besides, Obō came to the company with the department head. Who knows how many of Obō's ideas the department head has used? Who knows if Obō might also hold a grudge?"

"Don't make false accusations!" Oto Kaito frowned. "I'm the department head's assistant, so it's natural for me to be close to him. But you guys, on a daily basis..."

Listening to the three attacking each other, Kudo Kazuma couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth.

This feels so familiar...

So, is it a classic choice of three?

The three suspects are attacking each other, right?

It’s not over, right?

He simply asked Kogoro Mouri, "Uncle Mouri, since Majima said he also heard Department Head Yoshida speaking, he's probably not the murderer. So who do you think the murderer is?"

Kogoro Mori casually remarked, "Not him? Then wasn't it Naoto Komatsu who went to call out to the deceased last?"

Kazuma Kudo: "I understand..."

The murderer is neither Masato Mashima nor Naoto Komatsu, but Kaito Obō!

Conan, standing to the side: "?"

What do you know?

He tugged at Kudo Kazuma's collar and whispered, "Don't mess around! The body is still warm; it must have died within the last half hour."

"Majima delivered the suggestion materials about 18 minutes ago. At that time, the closed beta had ended, and everyone was doing the final tidying up. Some people were going to the toilet or changing clothes."

“If we question everyone together, it’s definitely not just Majima who doesn’t have an alibi. But the victim died during this time period, but the murderer may not have committed the crime at that time.”

“I saw suspicious marks on the doorknob inside the deceased’s office, which appeared to be traces of duct tape.”

"Besides that, the deceased died of poisoning. There was a small red dot on the side of his ear, which suggests that, like the diplomat Tsujimura before him, he was poisoned with a poisoned needle, possibly by some kind of mechanism. But I couldn't find the murder weapon..."

Kudo Kazuma looked at his miniature brother with clear eyes: "You've said so much, so who is the murderer?"

Conan said with some frustration, "I'm not sure yet. If it's a murder committed using a device, the time of death can't be used as an alibi, which means many people could be involved. I'm still missing a clue..."

Kazuma Kudo tilted his head: "But I'm sure~"

Conan: "Huh?"

Determine what?

Have you identified the murderer?

He watched as his younger brother got up, walked unhurriedly to Oto Kaito's side, and asked, "Oto-kun, right? Can I ask you a question?"

Oto Kaito paused slightly, "President... President..."

Kazuma Edogawa, the president of Kurosawa Software, whom they rarely meet, is a well-known "detective of the heart" who frequently appears in the newspapers. Which of the twenty-odd employees of Kurosawa Software doesn't know him?

Kudo Kazuma's question immediately made him nervous.

Kudo Kazuma tilted his head slightly, looked at him, and asked using [Sound Bewitchment]: "I know that Yoshida is indeed not a very good person. Komatsu-kun has a conflict with him, Majima-kun has a conflict with him, and even I have thought about resigning from him."

"But you and he always seemed to be the closest of friends, right? You even followed Yoshida to our company, so... why did you kill him?"

Those last few words struck Kaito Fujito like a heavy blow, throwing him into disarray: "I...I...I only wanted revenge!"

“He and my sister were engaged, but my sister committed suicide shortly before the wedding… He always seemed to miss my sister, so I still considered him my future brother-in-law, but that day he was in a bad mood after being talked to by the president…”

"Yoshida Kohei, who was drunk, confessed! He confessed everything! He cheated on my sister with him before our marriage, which led to her suicide! So I'm going to kill him and avenge my sister!"

Kazuma Kudo: "..."

What a reasonable and scientifically sound motive for murder!

It would have been even better if he hadn't chosen the company as the location for the murder...
