Mr. Smell

creaking————

The car came to a sudden stop, and the handles on the railing above their heads were tinkling with each other, making a pleasant sound.

The other passengers in the car were unprepared, and due to the violent inertia, they slipped and fell to the ground.For a moment, the carriage was filled with exclamations one after another.

Kaito was awakened by the sharp sound of brakes while he was drowsy. Subconsciously relying on his excellent balance ability as a phantom thief, Kaito reacted quickly, stepped on the railing in front of him, and hurriedly eased the tendency of leaning forward.

The arms clasping Conan in his arms did not relax, and he took advantage of the trend to move sideways on the empty seat beside him, and the strength of his body and feet offset each other at an angle.

The car stopped slowly, and after a muffled "boom", the front of the car bumped into the rear of a Honda in front.

Of course, the collision was only slight, and the paint on the front of the car was not even wiped off.

Conan finally woke up with the sound of a dull collision. He rubbed his sleepy eyes, but his usual vigorous and sensitive thinking was not fully awake.It's not because he slept too deeply, but because he really didn't have a good rest last night, and he didn't bother to open his eyes when he was half asleep and half awake.

He looked back at Kaito as if asking what happened.

Kaito pouted forward, indicating that the situation in front of him was blocked by the passengers standing in the carriage and could not be seen.

Conan shook his head, as if trying to shake off the last trace of drowsiness in his head.But even though he tried his best to drive away the drowsiness, there was still a layer of fog-like hazy color in his pupils.

He patted Kaito on the back of his hand, signaling to let him go, and let him slip to the front to have a look.

Kaito nodded, then let go of his arms, wrinkled his nose at him, stretched out his hand and drew a circle with his fingertips at the position of his heart, and then tapped at the center of the circle.

Conan gave him a look back, which meant to tell Kaito: I will be careful.Then, as soon as he slipped into the crowded crowd, he turned left and right and disappeared.

Weird, isn't it?

But the communication between the monster thief and the detective is that simple.

No words are needed, a look or a gesture can convey what is in the heart.This is not difficult for the two who have already formed a tacit understanding.

Kaito sat bored in the back seat, his eyes drifting over the expressions of every passenger, to pass the time.

For example, the granny with the hard plastic basket must have been born in a big family and well educated in etiquette.Because even if there was an accident in front of the car, she would not stand up and wait with the crowd, and she was not like other old and dull old women.

For example, the girl standing in the distance wearing a blue skirt with floral print and white border looks anxious, and the sweat on her forehead has blurred her strong eye makeup.One look, and she knew she was definitely going on a date.

.......

Kaito didn't realize that the ones he observed all the time were women, so he looked carefully at each one with a scrutiny attitude.

Maybe it's because women tend to express their thoughts on their faces, when eyes clatter on their faces like the laugh-out-loud pages of a hardcover entertainment book.

He almost rolled over with laughter in his heart, but his expression remained calm.

Just as he was having fun, Conan suddenly appeared in front of him, poked his numb face, and looked at him out of the corner of his eye:

"Hey, who are you looking at?"

Kaito withdrew his gaze abruptly, knowing that he had overlooked, dodging Conan's sight from left to right:

"Ah... I'm looking for a detective! I can't see you no matter what!"

Conan folded his arms in disbelief, glanced up and down, and questioned:

"Oh? Then I stood in front of you for a while, why didn't you see it?"

Just as Kaito opened his mouth to defend himself, suddenly, the pleasant ringtone of the call came from his pocket more like the sound of nature at this moment.

He took out his constantly ringing mobile phone as if he was being amnesty, not daring to reveal a trace of secret joy on his face, he held the mobile phone carefully and asked:

"Can I answer the phone first?"

Conan raised one eyebrow, nodded his chin, and said, "Yes!"

Tsk, this damn kid is now like a stingy boss who catches an employee being lazy, withholding the employee's salary with a proud face.

Kaito breathed a sigh of relief, and secretly adjusted his facial expression.But in the next second, the delicate balance on his face was immediately broken by the roar on the phone:

"Die!!!! You haven't come to school for a few days?!! Do you know what happened in school these two days?!!!

The English teacher in class C next door was killed! !Fortunately, you haven't come to school for a few days without any suspicion! !Here we are being investigated one after another! ! ! ! "

Kaito got a headache from the noise, and his brain seemed to be buzzing with the lingering sound of the phone.

He turned to look at Conan with a bitter face and a grumbling expression.Unexpectedly, the latter deliberately turned to the beginning as if he hadn't seen it.

It's over, offended two heavyweight bosses.

Kaito grabbed his brown hair that was already curled up all over the place, clicked his tongue, and decisively pressed "End Call" first, and explained to Conan in a low-key manner:

"Detective, I wasn't looking at anything before."

Conan just glanced at him: "Is the phone call over?"

"It's over..."

Kaito originally thought that the famous detective would hold on to the braid, but the other party changed his expression like flipping through a book, full of high emotions similar to excitement.

"A man died at the intersection ahead and the police have surrounded the scene.

But the first driver before the convoy noticed the range of the cordon, which caused the cars behind to stop suddenly, and several rear-end collisions occurred.

Our bus is the third one to be rear-ended.The police have arrested his driver, found out that the alcohol content in his saliva exceeded the limit, and confirmed that he was driving under the influence of alcohol.So, it was such a coincidence. "

After Kuai Dou listened to him, he admired his speed of investigation, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly: It turns out that when a detective encounters a case, he forgets all his narrow-mindedness.

At this moment, he could only follow someone's interest: "So, then, who is that dead person?"

Conan shrugged, saying he didn't know yet, he hadn't observed the scene closely.

They asked the bus driver to open the door, got out of the bus and ran to the front to check.I saw a group of very familiar police officers busy inside and out around the cordon.

When they approached, the sharp-eyed police officer Takagi saw them and patted his colleague on the shoulder: "Please let go of the cordon and let them in." Then, he raised his arms and shouted to the two men: "Hey! Detective Kudo!! Conan-kun!! Here, here!!"

The Megure Police Department heard nothing, turned around and saw Conan and Kaito had gone through the cordon and walked this way, and couldn't help saying happily:

"Yo! Brother Kudo!! Come here, hurry up and help me find out what's weird about this dead man."

Kaito was pushed by Mr. Police Department in front of the dead man with the white border line, and he was dragged involuntarily to listen to many details of the case.He blinked helplessly, and unexpectedly discovered that the deceased was the English teacher next door that Qingzi had mentioned.

The nearby streets are very familiar to Kaito, because this is near Ekoda High School.

Kaito turned his head and gave Conan a tentative look, and the latter gave him a "play well" look.So, after getting the authorization, he tried his best to recall the happy expression of the famous detective who "caught the case" just now, pretending to be decent

"Please give me the details of the deceased, thank you."

Takagi at the side flipped through the police handbook sideways, looked at the densely packed text on it, and said:

"The name of the deceased was Kazuko Tanaka. He was an English teacher in class C of the second year of Jiang Gutian University. The time of death was around 8:30 in the morning. The cause of death was organic phosphoric acid chemicals such as pesticides. And caused a severe allergic reaction.

The deceased should have realized that he had been doused with a large amount of pesticides before he was alive, and he tried to stop the taxi to go to the hospital.But she didn't persevere, she had a toxic attack on the side of the road, and it was proved that she was dead after rescue. "

After taking a glance at the extremely chaotic scene, Takagi continued:

"Looking at the scene of the death, the most interesting thing is that the deceased was holding on to the pendant on the phone, rather than holding the phone and wanting to call for help."

Kaito frowned, with a serious face: "Can you show me that pendant?"

A police officer from the technical department handed over a transparent ziplock bag containing Kazuko Tanaka's mobile phone.There is a pink, fluffy and cute spherical charm hanging under the phone. The fluff is probably made of rabbit fur. It looks like a ball and is very ordinary.

Kaito reached out and grabbed the bag, pretended to have a closer look, then handed it to the child next to him carelessly, and changed the subject by saying:

"Is the suspect identified now?"

Speaking of this, Megure Police Department and Takagi Police Officer both showed headache expressions, and said with a wry smile:

"The trouble is here, Kudo. The deceased is so close to the school, but there are many students and teachers inside. Finding the suspect is like finding a needle in a haystack."

Kaito patted his head, thinking to himself: That's right, when I usually see the class next door, I feel that this woman is not very popular.During class, you can hear the roar of wah wah wah from the next class.After class, she is also mean in the office. She would ridicule students who came to ask homework, and could turn black into white with one mouth.

He was too lazy to continue the conversation with the police officers, maintaining a thoughtful expression on his face, but actually he was in a daze.

Conan tugged at his sleeve, squatted beside him and quietly asked, "Are you originally from this school?"

Kaito nodded: "Yes."

He asked again, "What time did you start class?"

"No, it starts at 9:00. Only students who want to go to club activities will arrive at school early, and teachers are required to arrive at school before 8.45."

Conan waved at him like a fly, he turned around knowingly, and relayed part of the conversation just now to Officer Megure.

"Balabalba... So, the scope of suspects has been narrowed down a lot."

Mumu suddenly realized "Oh!", and asked Takagi to exclude other students who had no club activities and teachers who arrived at school between 8:30 and 8:45.

Conan and Kaito stood aside and waited for the result.

Jianggutian University has been sealed off by the police, and no one is currently allowed to enter or leave.

Half an hour later, Officer Takagi handed the list in duplicate to the Kaito and Megure Police Departments.

Kaito consciously knelt down to watch with Conan.

“学生中嫌疑人有20名：剑道部2人、篮球部1人、茶道部1人、文学部5人、艺术部11人。老师中有15名，大都是在8:00左右到校的。”

After another investigation, the first and third year students on the list and the teachers who were not in the same office as the deceased were eliminated, and a total of 5 suspects were identified: 1 person from the Kendo Department, 1 person from the Tea Ceremony Department, 1 person from the Literature Department, and 2 teachers.

"very good".

Conan immediately locked in his heart that one of the five people must be the murderer.

Kaito looked at his expression, and immediately asked the Megure Police Department to call for the five people to be brought to the scene.

Both teachers are female, the students in the kendo department are male, and the remaining two students are female.

Conan looked at them carefully, and found that the expressions of the five people were all panicked, there was not much difference, and nothing could be observed for a while.

Megure Police Department asked: "Why did you come to school at 8:00?"

One of the two teachers said that he came to correct homework, and the other said he came to take care of the plants in the office and change the water in the fish tank in the corner.The students answered that they came to participate in club activities.

Hearing the word "plant" in the confession, Takagi immediately thought of the pesticide that the deceased had been forced to take during his lifetime, and immediately cast his eyes on the teacher.

"Excuse me, which subject are you teaching? What are you doing between 8:20 and 8:30?"

The middle-aged woman spread her hands innocently: "I teach chemistry. I said: I'm just here to water the flowers and change the water."

"Didn't you see the dead in the process?"

"No. But when I got to the office, I saw her bag on the table, but she didn't know where it went."

Takagi asked another teacher: "You are also an English teacher? What do you think of the teaching level of the deceased?"

The younger female teacher curled her lips, as if she looked very contemptuous:

"It's not good. Her character is really not likable, and I'm not satisfied with her character. But even so, I have absolutely no intention of killing her."

Takagi nodded and recorded it in his notebook.He asked three more students, and found three different doubts.

He sorted it out a bit and listed all the doubts for everyone to see.

Chemistry teachers, with professional knowledge as the basis, understand the generality of pesticides.

An English teacher, he had a feud with the deceased, and the relationship between the two was not good.

In the schoolbag of the boy in the kendo club was a plush ball-shaped pendant similar to the one held tightly in the dead man's hand. He said it was a gift from his girlfriend.

The girl from the Literature Department is called Ono Rito, and the character "rabbit" is made of the same material as the pendant.

The place where the girls of the Tea Ceremony Club participated in club activities was very close to the office of the deceased.

So, who killed the dead?

Seeing that Officer Takagi committed a crime, Officer Meguro hesitated about the list.

Both Kaito and Conan have very similar contemplative faces, except that one is pretending and the other is really thinking.

Conan saw the deceased lying on the side of the road stretching his arms, it was indeed as if he couldn't bear the pain of drug seizures when he was hailing a taxi.He raised his face and asked Takagi: "Uncle Takagi, may I ask: Did she hold her mobile phone in her hand?"

Takagi nodded, and added: "And it's still very tight."

Taxi, stuffed pendant, occupation of the dead...

Conan let out an "ah", and a little bit of joy gradually filled his face.

He grabbed Kaito, and whispered close to the other's ear for a while, Kaito also said "ah" after listening, and said to the bewildered officers Megure and Takagi, "I know who the murderer is now. .”

"Oh~? It's really amazing! Then please tell us!"

Kaito finally glanced at Conan again to confirm, and then pointed at one of the five people: "Miss Ono Ritu, the murderer is you."

The girl was obviously taken aback, looked at Kaito in disbelief, and quickly denied with a panicked expression:

"Kuroba-san? Is it Kuroba-san! We are all students, how could we murder the teacher..."

Kaito looked up at the sky, and said to her, "No, you have mistaken someone. My name is Kudo Shinichi, and I am a detective, not your classmate."

Conan glanced at him, and when no one was paying attention, he quietly kicked Kaito's upper.

"Hiss...you don't need to quibble, Miss Ono. The deceased has clearly stated that you are the murderer."

Ono Ritu was stunned, and lowered her head aggrievedly, not daring to meet Kaito's eyes.

"The deceased was holding a plush-shaped ball pendant in her hand as an outstretched arm to hail a taxi. In fact, an English word was implied in her behavior." He paused, and deliberately elongated the tone: "Shakespeare, It means waving long hair."

With his back to everyone, he made some gestures:

"Please look, do you have to wave your arms when hiring a taxi? Do you also wave your mobile phone?"

Takagi clapped his hands in surprise and said, "Yes, that's right."

The Mumu Police Department also nodded in agreement.

"Then, the word Shakespeare comes from the name of Shakespeare, a famous British poet and playwright during the Renaissance, and it also implies that you, as a member of the Literature Department, are the murderer!"

At this moment, Ono Ritu couldn't hold back the tears welling up in his eyes, and said sadly:

"Sorry! Sorry...I didn't mean to..."

In Ono's low sobs, everyone finally learned the whole story of the incident.

It turned out that more than a month ago, Ono fell in love with a man through social software, and this man happened to be one of the deceased's many former lovers in college.

Kazuko Tanaka seized this sore foot, and never let go of any chance to taunt Ono under the circumstances that there was no distinction between classes and classes.

Finally, at around eight o'clock this morning, Ono couldn't help but want to call Kazuko Tanaka to the quiet and deserted playground to have a talk.She approached Kazuko Tanaka with a friendly, trying-to-solve attitude, but was flatly rejected by the other party and threatened to tell her parents about Ono's private boyfriend.

The more humble Ono was, the happier she was.

Ono followed her all the way back to the office, begging her all the time.

Tanaka seemed to be infected by her sincerity, and was finally willing to let go of the matter.

She turned around, but contradictoryly took out the mobile phone with the pendant on it, and called Ono's father.

At this point, Ono finally couldn't bear it anymore.

After looking at Tanaka's proud face with dissatisfaction and hatred, she quickly picked up the organic pesticide placed on the window sill and poured it into Tianzhong's mouth.

She thought it was full of smelly ammonium fertilizer, and thought it would teach Tanaka a lesson, but she didn't expect that the bottle was actually a herbicide with phosphoric acid as the main component, which led to the tragedy of Tanaka Kazuko's final reputation.

Coincidentally, maybe God was pitying every student who was oppressed by Tian Zhong, and let her die so easily.

Ono Litu is a girl after all, and the herbicide she was forced to drink was only about [-] milliliters. Even if she was forced to take it, she would not have a big problem if she went to the hospital for gastric lavage within an hour.

However, one of the ingredients is like a reminder to Tanaka who is allergic.

Moreover, this bottle of herbicide should have been kept in a hidden corner.It's just that today it was taken out by the chemistry teacher who happened to come early.When she went to change the water in the fish tank, she put it on the windowsill.

Kaito and Conan shook their heads in unison, expressing sympathy for what happened to Onori Usagi.

But the latter's sympathy is sympathy, and he still supports that Ono should be punished by law.He looked at Ono's eyes that were red from crying, and looked at the corner of the police department wearing a khaki windbreaker:

"Uncle Mumu! Can you deal with this case lightly? One is because the murderer, Ms. Ono, is still young, and she committed the crime of unintentional murder this time. Two, the English teacher oppressed the students and finally got punished. The student's resistance is the fault of the deceased. Besides..."

He turned his head and asked Ono Litu: "Sister Xiaoye, are you an adult?"

Ono wiped the tears from his cheeks, grateful for the child's excuse: "I'm not an adult yet, and my 18th birthday is two months away."

Conan raised his face again and said to the Mumu Police Department: "She is still a minor, and minor prisoners can only be handed over to the management center and locked up for ten months, isn't it?"

Mu Mu nodded dully, while muttering in his heart how familiar the child was with the criminal law, he quietly made a phone call to the Ministry of Justice to verify it.

Ono was handcuffed, and just when she was about to get into the police car, she couldn't help but squat down in front of Conan, and lightly pecked the pink and fair child's cheek

"Thank you, little detective."

Conan's ears turned red, and he watched her calmly return to the police car, until the whimpering siren disappeared in the far distance.

He looked at Kaidou a little unhappy.

He turned his head around, and two pieces of light purple stared at him firmly: "Hey! Detective, what are you looking at?!"

Conan's gaze slipped away from the side: "I'm not looking at anything."

Kaito asked: "Could it be that girl grows beautifully?!"

Conan retorted loudly: "I'm just sympathizing with her, what are you thinking?!"

Kaito pinched the small face with a somewhat ferocious face, and pulled it vigorously to the sides, stretching the two round azure pupils to be slender, like a cat with bent eyebrows.

By the way, he wiped the small piece of skin that Ono touched, and quickly and seriously covered it with his mark, typing his name with a "bang" on an empty notebook with only one horizontal line drawn on it. chapter.

Then he smacked his lips in satisfaction.

"You are so troublesome."

Conan waved his hand away, and quickly ran to the station in the distance, his cheeks were flushed and his eyes flew over.

Kaito also followed, staring at Conan's face, deliberately pretending nothing happened.

He suddenly thought of something, and pulled Conan's arm: "Detective, give me your mobile phone number."

Conan raised his eyebrows when he heard the words, but reported the number readily, and then said, "What do you want?"

Kaito happily pressed a series of numbers on his phone: "If you don't do anything, just ask."

Conan turned his head away, looked at the bus parked at the rear intersection, and said anxiously:

"Looks like I have to go back."

Kaito just wanted to say that he would go too, but Conan gently refused:

"No, I'm actually going back and staying alone. Because I feel my body is weird and stuffy, and I'm already familiar with it."

While speaking, he looked at the upper of his shoe unnaturally: "By the way...you understand?"

Kaito reacted for a moment, only to realize that even April is almost over.

"Tomorrow is May?"

Conan nodded,

Kuaidou understood, but he still stood with Conan and waited for the bus.It wasn't until the bus came that he watched the other party board the bus before turning around and leaving.

He walked into his academy, and suddenly thought of something, he laughed softly, and bright lights flowed from his eyes.

It's going to be a special day soon, detective.
