Before Kuroba Kaito could react from the exclamation, Kudo Shinichi had already pushed away the chair and ran towards the direction of the sound.

... nasty detective instinct.

Kuroba Kaito gritted his teeth in his heart, but he still ran after Kudo Shinichi.

"Rin! Rin, can you hear me? Please, please hold on! Please! God, God, where's his medicine? Where's his medicine?!"

When they arrived at the table where the voice came from, they saw a man in a T-shirt and shorts panting, leaning against the back of the chair with a reddish-purple complexion, waving his hands in the air indiscriminately, and his vision was distracted.A young girl with short blue hair sitting next to him frantically rummaged through the bag she was carrying. It was obvious that the exclamation just now came from her. She rummaged around and shouted for help.The two men of the same age who sat across from them also seemed panicked. One had already called the emergency number, while the other stood up and started yelling at the waiter, telling them to open all the windows to ensure the ventilation.

"Let me go, please let me go! I know a little first aid knowledge, please let me go!" Kudo Shinichi frowned and waved his arms to disperse the crowd.Kuroba Kaito followed Kudo Shinichi, passed through the crowd smoothly, and reached the front of the table of four.

The short-haired woman had already found the spray, and the man who had closed his eyes and was unconscious opened his mouth, sprayed it twice, held his hand, and murmured nervously: "Please, please, wake up Rin, I forgive you—"

Kudo leaned over, stretched out his hand to check his breath, and his pupils dilated for a moment.

Kuroba clearly felt the stiffness of the big detective's body at that moment, and a bad premonition floated in his heart——

"……Please grief."

Kudo's voice was rational and calm, but to Kuroba's ears, there was a bit of bitterness mixed in.

The three people at the table with the man who had passed away were stunned at the same time.

The woman screamed after a second, and tears quickly gathered in her eyes.She lost control and began to yell loudly: "You liar! He was drinking with us just now, how could he die suddenly! Why do you curse people like this?! Rin, Rin! Can you hear me? Wake up, it’s just an asthma attack, how could this be! Rin—”

"No, it's not true, right?! How could Yoshikawa—!" The brown curly-haired man who was traveling with him widened his eyes in disbelief, and his voice trembled.

"Yoshikawa?! Yoshikawa, don't be joking. Didn't you see Sumiko crying? Your girlfriend is crying! Hey, hello Yoshikawa!" The black-haired man stumbled to the man's side and shook him vigorously.

Do Asthma Attacks Kill...

Kudo's sixth sense as a detective sounded at this time.

——No, something is wrong.

His gaze swept around the table where four people were sitting, and landed on the four or five empty beer bottles. Then he glanced at the dead man again. A guess suddenly appeared in his mind. The position near the deceased's face smelled, and he straightened up suddenly and shouted loudly: "Stay away from Yoshikawa Rin! The restaurant is sealed off, and no one can leave until the police arrive!"

Everyone froze in place.

A second later, the audience was in an uproar, and dissatisfied discussions began to ring out one after another.

"Hey, what do you mean?!"

"Speaking of which, who are you? Do you block it when you say blockade? Have you taken our rights seriously??"

"Are you saying it was a murder and all of us are suspects?"

"Don't be ridiculous, I don't know this person at all, I have urgent matters in a while! You are doing this illegally!"

"That's right. Let me tell you this...classmate, do you read too many detective novels? You'd better go home and read novels, and stop spitting blood here."

"This gentleman..." The manager ran out sweating profusely, stood there in embarrassment, and spoke hesitantly.

Kudo Shinichi interrupted the commotion with a cold voice, and lowered his chin: "I am high school student detective Kudo Shinichi. Is it illegal? Do you want to call the police/officials who are coming to verify?"

The noisy voice disappeared in an instant, as if the pause button was pressed, and everyone present was infected by the powerful calm aura that erupted from this young man at this moment, and felt a little inexplicably. trust.

Kuroba Kaito also forgot where he was for a moment, as if he had returned to the day when he first met the detective on April Fool's Day, and was also strongly moved by the innate pride carried by Kudo Shinichi. Shocked.He stared at the famous detective standing in front of him with his back straight and one hand in his pocket, and his throat felt dry for a while.

— This is a bit foul.

Kuroba Kaito couldn't help but think in his heart.

A lifelong friend...or a lover?

The low-pitched whispers spread like waves. Some people clearly recognized this famous high school student detective, and many people showed embarrassment on their faces.

Kudo spoke again at this time, but his voice softened a lot: "I understand everyone's feelings, but whether it was an accident or a homicide case can only be confirmed after the police/party arrive and the forensic examination. Please also Please cooperate with the investigation patiently, and I will cooperate with the police to solve this matter as soon as possible. Before that, I will trouble everyone.” After speaking, Kudo Shinichi bent towards the crowd, and then took the Ri took out a handkerchief and began to examine it.

"Black Feather." Hei Yu was distracted when he suddenly heard Kudo call his name, and he responded.The three people at the same table stood on the side, the woman was crying out of breath, while the other two men were comforting her while watching Kudo work.

"Call the Metropolitan Police Department, it probably needs to be searched." He stood up and said with a serious expression, "This is a homicide."

Black Feather's breathing stagnated, and his heart began to beat violently.

He, he killed? !

Damn, isn't it, the Kanto Shinigami system can appear at this time? !

Although Kaito Kuroba, as the phantom thief Kidd, has been rampant in the dark all day long and seems to be doing all kinds of evil, but this is indeed the first time he has directly participated in the murder scene, and his forehead is sweating nervously.

He took two deep breaths, calmed his trembling breathing, nodded, took out his mobile phone from his pocket, and began to report the crime.

After he walked to the side and finished reporting the case, Kudo had already started talking to three people in a trance, asking about related matters.

Standing on the side, Kuroba was taken aback by Kudo's earnest profile - but it was only for a moment.He put away his mobile phone, walked over and listened obliquely behind Kudo, not wanting to interrupt Kudo's case handling process.

Kudo's voice was very cold, but it didn't feel oppressive. Instead, it gave them a sense of being business-like and following procedures. Coupled with Kudo's handsome appearance and age, the three stuttered from the beginning. Gradually began to adjust, and regained his sanity under Kudo's seemingly insignificant questions.

"The name of the deceased... Rin Yoshikawa?"

"Yes." The curly brown-haired man nodded.

"May I know your names and your relationship with Mr. Yoshikawa?"

"I, I am Matsuno Sumiko, Rin - Yoshikawa's girlfriend." The voice of the blue-haired woman - that is, Matsuno Sumiko was still a little rough, but it was obviously much better than the situation of being out of breath just now, It's just that the eye sockets are still bright red, and the makeup is a bit smudged.

"Kakuyujiro. I'm Yoshikawa's roommate." The black-haired man - Kakuyujiro said, his lips were a little pale, and his eyes were full of doubts, but he still didn't ask.

"My name is Sakuma Ryukyu, and I'm his friend. We've known each other since childhood." The curly brown-haired man—Sakuma Ryuu—had some red eyes, but his voice was still calm, "Why did this happen, Rin... I'm sorry , I can't accept it." He turned his head, raised his hand to wipe the corners of his eyes, then turned around and forced a smile.

Kudo also returned a smile, and then asked, "Is Yoshikawa an asthma patient?"

Sakuma Ryukyu nodded: "I suffered from it when I was in elementary school, and I didn't deal with it in time before, which led to the root cause of the disease. This time it was an acute asthma attack, but I didn't expect it to be so serious..." He The tone of the voice has changed a little, and the voice gradually lowered.

Kudo nodded, but did not respond.

He pondered for a moment: "You said...you were drinking before what happened to Mr. Yoshikawa. Would you mind describing it to me in detail?"

Kakuyujiro said hesitantly while recalling: "After the ramen came, we ate for a while, and then...then the side dishes came, we drank some wine to cheer up, and something happened not long after."

Kudo nodded again, but still didn't make any comments.

He said, "Miss Matsuno sat next to Mr. Yoshikawa just now, then Mr. Kado sat opposite Miss Matsuno, and Mr. Sakuma sat opposite Mr. Yoshikawa, right?"

All three nodded.

"Do you have any other details you want to add?" Kudo said.

The three exchanged glances, and finally shook their heads.

Kudo smiled.

"Thank you for your cooperation. Please take a rest in the empty seat and wait for the arrival of the police department." He said politely.

The three of them bent towards Kudo and sat down on the empty seats, and they could still see Sakuma Ryukyu holding Matsuno Sumiko in his arms, comforting the woman who had already collapsed in a low voice.

Kudo Shinichi looked at them, touched his chin unconsciously and thought for a moment.

"It was a homicide, absolutely right." Kuroba suddenly said standing beside Kudo.

Kudo nodded, then glanced at him suspiciously: "How do you know?"

Heiyu coughed twice, scratched his head: "I can guess from your expression..."

"..." Kudo choked, and didn't know how to answer for a while.

"Tell me about your discovery?" Hei Yu laughed twice, changed his previous hippie smile, and asked seriously.

"Obviously, this was committed by an acquaintance, and it couldn't have been an accident."

Kudo pulled Kuroba aside, looked at the three people who were interacting, and said in a low voice.

"If I'm not mistaken, Yoshikawa died of alcohol poisoning caused by a disulfiram-like reaction and suffocation caused by an asthma attack. Yoshikawa suffers from asthma, and only those who know him will know that. Both A sulfiram-like reaction is usually a reaction between alcohol and a sulfonylurea, resulting in ethanol poisoning—"

"Stop, stop, man, man, say something that everyone can understand."

"—Alcohol and some medicines will react, and finally poison Yoshikawa to death." Kudo rubbed the bridge of his nose, "You can know this from Yoshikawa's face turning purple and a particularly disgusting garlic smell in his mouth."

Hei Yu frowned: "Then how do you know that the accident was not caused by drinking after taking the medicine?"

"Generally speaking, adults or people who drink a lot know this-to avoid alcohol while taking medicine, especially for people like Yoshikawa, who has asthma, and the doctor must have told him before, let him Pay attention, it will be mentioned in it. Besides, taking medicine and not drinking alcohol is a common practice that everyone knows. There is no reason for Yoshikawa to do this. Judging by the amount of beer they ordered on the table, they will definitely drink Quite a lot, just relying on three people alone can't drink so much, which shows that Yoshikawa is also an alcoholic, so he should know. It can also be said that this is not an accident, but a deliberate behavior. But the specifics still have to wait for the police to see Only when the people from the hall arrive and collect evidence can we draw a conclusion. If you guess correctly, the medicine should be in the ramen."

Hei Yu suddenly realized.

"So, the suspect..."

Kudo pursed his lips and nodded slightly.

"Yes, the suspect is in the middle of the three of them."
