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

It was just a lost ticket; it wasn't a big deal.

All Kogoro Mouri needs to do is tell the people at the office. With his own name on the board and the signed tickets from the other three people as proof, getting in will be a piece of cake.

But Kogoro Mouri absolutely refused—he felt that dressing up so handsomely and carrying a bouquet of flowers to tell the office staff that he had lost his ticket was too embarrassing and a complete loss of a man's dignity.

So after much deliberation, he tried to get Kazuma Kudo, Ran, or any of the Conan members to give up their votes, but Ran firmly rejected this idea.

"Then... let's just say that Conan lost the ticket!"

Conan's eyes widened in surprise, while Kazuma Kudo couldn't help but admire Kogoro Mouri's astonishing wisdom.

"This is too much!"

Suddenly, an angry voice came from beside him, and knowing he was in the wrong, Kogoro Mouri instinctively shrank back. When he turned around, he realized that the woman with the headband wasn't talking about him, but was on the phone...

Listening to the woman's angry rebuke, the group roughly understood that the woman had finally managed to get three tickets to Yoko Okino's concert, but one of the people she had arranged to meet couldn't come because of a cold.

Before anyone else could say anything, Kogoro Mouri had a brilliant idea and went up to the lady to ask if she could sell him the extra ticket.

"Dad?" Xiaolan was both amused and exasperated. "We can just explain and go in, why do we have to buy another ticket? Isn't that a waste of money?"

Kogoro Mouri said sternly, "Enough with the nonsense! A man's dignity is something that no amount of money can buy!"

The three people behind him sighed in unison. At this critical moment, Kogoro Mouri started to be obsessed with saving face.

But the lady seemed unable to resist his enthusiasm, and smiled somewhat awkwardly, saying, "I think I'll give you the extra ticket, but there's something I need to ask you."

Kogoro Mouri's smile immediately brightened: "Sure, just tell me, not just one thing, but several!"

It turned out that the lady wanted Kogoro Mouri to drive her to pick up her sister. Kogoro Mouri readily agreed, and Kazuma Kudo, for the sake of the spirit, also persuaded Ran and Conan to get in the car together.

"Sigh, a man's dignity can't be bought with money, but it can be given to him by others, tsk tsk tsk..."

Listening to Kazuma Kudo's sarcastic remarks, Kogoro Mouri said irritably, "Stop talking nonsense. This Ms. Chiyo Aoshima and I are just helping each other out."

"Yes, uncle, you're right!"

"However, I wonder how Mina is doing. I hope she doesn't do anything foolish..." As Chiyo Aoshima spoke, she brought up the issue of her younger sister, Mina Aoshima, being emotionally unstable recently.

As they were talking, Kudo Kazuma suddenly spoke up: "Sister, your sister sounds like she has premarital depression. But... why did you suddenly bring up these problems with your sister? Don't tell me you suspect she's going to commit suicide?"

Chiyo Aoshima was slightly taken aback, then quickly said, "Yes, yes... she hasn't come yet, I'm so worried about her..."

Conan, however, raised his hand and tugged at Kudo Kazuma's sleeve, then met his gaze.

His younger brother is incredibly lazy by nature. If he hadn't sensed something, he probably wouldn't have bothered talking to this stranger.

Kudo Kazuma shrugged at Conan, who immediately understood and his suspicious gaze fell on Aoshima Chiyo.

Kogoro Mouri in the driver's seat and Chiyo Aoshima in the passenger seat started their conversation from the headband on her head, and it all revolved around Yoko Okino.

According to Chiyo Aoshima, the headband on her head was a special headband that Yoko Okino gave to her fans yesterday when she released her first solo single.

"Besides the headband, the free gifts also include a keychain like this," said Chiyo Aoshima, taking out a delicate keychain. "But you're also a fan of Yoko, so why didn't you buy her CDs?"

Kogoro Mouri immediately launched into a Versailles-like statement: "Well, there's nothing I can do about it. Ms. Yoko gave me the CD herself, but I didn't get any freebies..."

Chiyo Aoshima looked on with envy: "So you and Yoko are friends?"

While the two people in the front were chatting, Conan in the back seat kept staring at Aoshima Chiyo.

Suddenly, his expression changed slightly, and he whispered to Kudo Kazuma and Ran, who were sitting on either side of him, "Look at her keychain and hairband, isn't something a little off?"

Just then, Kogoro Mouri revealed his identity, and Chiyo Aoshima's hand trembled and dropped the keychain. Conan immediately took advantage of his small size to crawl in front and pick up the keychain for her.

After carefully examining the differences between the keychain and the headband, he frowned and returned the keychain to Aoshima Chiyo.

When they arrived at the Qingdao house, Qingdao Chiyo said she would go and wake her younger sister up. As expected, a moment later, they heard her exclamation.

The four of them moved faster than the last, and soon they had gathered at the bathroom door.

On the frosted glass door of the bathroom, the words "Goodbye" were taped on with wide tape, and inside the door frame, a dense layer of wide tape was visible to the naked eye.

Chiyo Aoshima knocked hard on the glass door a few times. Seeing this, Kogoro Mouri asked in confusion, "Did you lock it from the inside?"

“That’s impossible.” Aoshima Chiyo said sadly, “There’s no key to this door at all. They probably taped the door shut from the inside…”

"Really?" Kudo Kazuma strode forward. "Watch me, I'll open this door!"

Seeing his imposing manner, Chiyo Aoshima thought he was going to force the door open, but to her surprise, Kazuma Kudo stepped forward, grabbed the handle, twisted it, and pushed it.

The toilet door was opened in a very ordinary way...

"Hey lady, you were in such a hurry just now, yet you didn't even try to push the door open. Are you kidding me?" Kudo Kazuma looked at Aoshima Chiyo and asked with a half-smile, "You didn't do it on purpose, did you?"

After saying that, he opened the bathroom door wide, and the group saw the woman lying by the bathtub and the tub full of red-stained water.

"What...what are you saying?" Chiyo Aoshima asked, frowning. "I was just so worried about my sister, I was so flustered, I didn't expect..."

Before she could finish speaking, Kudo Kazuma interrupted her: "Really? But your sister is in this state, and you're still telling me this... They all seem to care about your sister more than you do!"

The three-person team from the agency rushed in as soon as they saw what was happening in the bathroom.

After Kogoro Mouri confirmed that the woman was dead, Ran immediately called the police, while Conan turned to look at Chiyo Aoshima.

"Miss Chiyo, you killed your sister, didn't you?"

Chiyo Aoshima panicked completely when the two brothers questioned her relentlessly: "What...what are you talking about? Mina must have committed suicide, right? Or maybe someone broke in and killed her..."

Conan's voice was slightly low: "But, Chiyo, there's still blood on your hairband. Should we wait until the police arrive and compare this blood with Mina's blood?"

Chiyo Aoshima's face turned deathly pale instantly: "I...I..."

Unable to bear it any longer, Qingdao Chiyo immediately cried, knelt down, and repented three times.

Kudo Kazuma couldn't help but exclaim: "Today went by so fast! I didn't even have to use [Sound Temptation]..."
