Have You Confessed Your Love Today? Chapter 19

Chapter 19 Chapter 19 Solving the case

When Edogawa Conan heard Kasukabe Yukina’s words, he had a flash of inspiration and trotted outside the house. He looked around and found a police officer from the forensics section. He ran over and said in a familiar manner: “Uncle from the forensics section, uncle Mouri asked me to find someone to help test the drugs in Miss Tsukino’s medicine bottle.”

“That’s it!” said the police officer from the Forensic Division, “We have already conducted the test in accordance with Section Chief Akechi’s order, and there is nothing wrong with the medicine in the medicine bottle.”

No problem?

Edogawa Conan asked reluctantly: “What about the fingerprints on the medicine bottle?”

The police officer from the forensics section looked through the records and replied: “The fingerprints on the medicine bottles belong to Tsukino Zemi, Kasukabe Yukina, Ogata Remi and Tachibana Tachibana. Some unrecorded fingerprints were also detected on one or two of the medicine bottles.”

He looked down at Edogawa Conan and said kindly: “These investigation results have been sent to Section Chief Akechi. It will take about 30 to 60 minutes for the results of the water stain residue that Section Chief Akechi just asked to test.”

Water damage!

A flash of lightning flashed across Edogawa Conan’s mind, and he suddenly realized it, and said excitedly: “I understand, thank you uncle!”

“You’re welcome.” The police officer from the forensics department looked at Edogawa Conan’s running figure and started to do his own thing again as usual.

Edogawa Conan returned to the room and immediately met Akechi Kengo’s eyes.

The two looked at each other, and all four glasses reflected a white light.

Edogawa Conan walked up to Kengo Akechi and asked a little depressed and curiously: “Has Mr. Akechi noticed that Miss Tsukino is taking medicine?”

He has been puzzled by the time of Tsukino Zemi’s death.During that time, all suspects had alibis.Although it makes sense to poison in advance, how can the murderer guarantee that Ms. Tsukino will drink water?Ms. Tsukino also doesn’t have the habit of drinking water before going on the show.

But it would make sense if it were a capsule.The capsule shell can delay the poisoning time. In this case, the poison in Miss Tsukino’s water glass is a blindfold.

Edogawa Conan’s eyes swept across the three suspects in the room. Which one was it?

“I have encountered some cases related to the entertainment industry, and I have some understanding of people in these professions.” Kengo Akechi looked at Edogawa Conan with interest, “Did the results of what I asked them to test before come out?”

Edogawa Conan replied subconsciously: “Uncle from the forensics department said it will take 30 to 60 minutes to get the results.”

After he finished speaking, he blinked: “Mr. Akechi knows that I went to see the police officer from the forensics department?”

“I saw you ran out.” Akechi Kengo looked at Mouri Kogoro, “I wonder if I can see the ‘Sleeping Kogoro’ today.”

Edogawa Conan didn’t know if he meant anything, so he pretended to be confused and said: “Mr. Akechi has already made a breakthrough, why do you still want your uncle to solve the case?”

“I’m very curious about Mr. Mori’s true strength.” Akechi Kengo said frankly. “I have heard some rumors before that the Investigation Division relies on detectives to solve cases, from the high school student detective Kudo-kun to the current Mr. Mori. Although the Investigation Division occasionally asked detectives to help solve cases, it would not be good if everyone in the Investigation Division develops the habit of relying on detectives to solve cases.”

“Actually, not really. The police officers in the First Investigation Division are also very responsible.” Edogawa Conan changed the topic, “Does Mr. Akechi know any other detectives?”

Akechi Kengo pushed up his glasses and said lightly: “Yes, I also know a former high school detective.”

“Once?” Edogawa Conan repeated this attributive strangely.

Akechi Kengo looked at Edogawa Conan and encouraged: “Edogawa-kun also has the qualifications to become a primary school student detective.”

Edogawa Conan said modestly: “I’m far worse than Uncle Mori.”

“I believe you have potential.” Mingzhi Jianwu said nonchalantly, “How many have you found out?”

Edogawa Conan hesitated for a moment, then admitted with pretense of annoyance: “I have a little speculation, but I can’t find any evidence. The police uncle from the Forensic Division said that he sent all the investigation results to Mr. Akechi.”

Mingzhi Jianwu asked: “Do you want to see it?”

“Can you?” Edogawa Conan pulled Mouri Kogoro’s banner, “Uncle Mouri asked me to help him find something.”

Akechi looked at him with understanding: “Yes, I also want to hear Mr. Mori’s reasoning.”

After Edogawa Conan read the investigation report, he turned around and ran out. After a while, he ran back, talked to Kasukabe Yukina, turned around and grabbed Mouri Kogoro’s pants: “Uncle!”

“What’s wrong?” Mouri Kogoro was confused and squatted down along with Edogawa Conan’s strength, “What’s the matter? If you want to go to the toilet, let Xiaolan take you there.”

Edogawa Conan deliberately said loudly: “I’ve finished asking you what you asked me to ask.”

“I asked you to ask…?” Mouri Kogoro looked at him blankly.

“Hey, uncle, come closer!” Edogawa Conan didn’t let Mouri Kogoro finish speaking, forcefully grabbed his collar and whispered something into his ear.

“Be gentle!” Mouri Kogoro was unprepared and was almost dragged to the ground. He was about to lose his temper when something he heard diverted his attention.

Edogawa Conan muttered for a moment.

Mouri Kogoro said in shock: “What?!”

Edogawa Conan pulled the person over and continued to mutter.

Mouri Kogoro’s exclamation attracted the attention of Megure Police Department. He looked at Moori Kogoro and raised his voice excitedly: “Moori brother, do you already know the truth?”

“It’s amazing, you deserve to be Mr. Mori!” Yoko Okino said with admiration.

Mouri Kogoro looked at Okino Yoko, cleared his throat pretendingly, and said in a deep voice: “Yes, Megure Police Department, I have figured everything out. Mr. Tachibana Tachibana, the murderer is you!”

“What?!” Ogata Reimi said in shock.

Kasukabe Yukina murmured with a complicated expression: “It’s really him?!”

“How is this possible, Mr. Mori?!” Tachibana Hanagi argued, “I told you that Tsukino was still alive when I left the dressing room!”

“Indeed, if you are poisoned by potassium cyanide, you will die within a few seconds.” Mouri Kogoro changed the topic, “But if the poison is placed in the capsule, your alibi will be invalid!”

“But Tsukino didn’t take medicine today!” Kasukabe Yukina blurted out.

“That’s right!” Tachibana Tachibana said loudly, “And poison was clearly detected in the water glass. How could it be poisoned with a capsule?!”

“Unfortunately, Mr. Tachibana Tachibana,” Kengo Akechi said, “The police did not detect the presence of potassium cyanide in the water stains on the ground. The potassium cyanide in the water glass should have been poured into the cup by the murderer when everyone rushed into the dressing room after Miss Tsukino’s death.”

He looked at Mouri Kogoro: “Mr. Mouri, do you remember who was closest to Miss Tsukino’s water glass at that time?”

“Well…” Mouri Kogoro recalled the scene at that time, “At that time, everyone was only focused on checking Miss Tsukino’s condition. The person closest to the water glass should be…”

“It’s Mr. Tachibana Tachibana.” Edogawa Conan said crisply, “At that time, Uncle Mori, Miss Kasukabe, Miss Ogata and Mr. Tachibana Tachibana formed a circle, and the one closest to the water glass was Mr. Tachibana Tachibana.”

Tachibana Tachibana said eagerly: “Even so, it doesn’t prove that I was the one who poisoned him!”

Kengo Akechi waved towards the door and took an evidence bag from the Forensics Division police officer. There was a medicine bottle in the evidence bag: “So, Mr. Tachibana Tachibana, how do you explain that this bottle of medicine has your fingerprints on it?”

Tachibana Tachibana said excitedly: “I’m her boyfriend, what’s so strange about having my fingerprints on her medicine bottle?!”

However, Kasukabe Yukina and Ogata Reimi both looked at him in surprise.

“But…” Ogata Reimi said nervously, “Ms. Tsukino’s medicine was accidentally left at work this morning. She bought it by herself during lunch today.”

Akechi Kenwu took over her words: “Yes, this bottle of medicine is brand new.”

Tachibana Tachibana Sheng was shocked and blurted out: “How is it possible? This bottle of medicine was obviously opened when I took it!”

“That’s because I took one. I finished my own medicine, so I asked Tsukino to give me one.” Kasukabe Yukina’s voice trembled, and she didn’t know whether it was sadness or anger. “Later, Tsukino and I had a fight, and she got angry and stuffed the medicine bottle back into her bag without taking the medicine.”

Ogata Reimi added: “We originally wanted to wait until Ms. Tsukino calmed down before going on the show and then persuade her to eat.”

Tachibana Tachibana Sheng stared at them blankly, with disbelief written all over her twisted face.

Akechi Kengo struck a fatal blow at the right time: “Only one capsule is missing from this bottle of medicine. Someone replaced the medicine Ms. Tsukino took.”

Tachibana Tachibana Sheng’s mouth opened and closed, her face looked like a fish out of water: “I…I…not me…”

“Although you have been prepared for a long time, your sudden attack on the TV station today can barely be regarded as an impulsive crime. If I go to your house to search now, I should still be able to find evidence that you have stored potassium cyanide.” Mingzhi Jianyue “a hundred secrets and a sparse”

Tachibana Tachibana lowered her head in despair: “It’s her fault. Who made her insist on ruining my career? When we were dating, we agreed not to make it public, but now she is threatening me to sue the artists under my unspoken rules if I don’t want to make it public.”

Officer Sato stepped forward and handcuffed him.

The Mumu Police Department personally watched the subordinates escorting the prisoners away, wondering if they were avoiding the presence of Akechi Jianyu.

Officer Takagi said in surprise: “Mr. Mori actually solved the case without sleeping today!”

Edogawa Conan stiffened and secretly raised his head to glance at Akechi Kengo.

Akechi Kengo asked with interest: “So isn’t this Mr. Mori’s true strength?”

Mouri Kogoro threw his head back and laughed.

Edogawa Conan asked half puzzled and half tentatively: “Does Mr. Akechi like detectives very much? You said before that you knew a high school detective.”

Mao Lilan asked curiously: “Is Mr. Akechi talking about Shinichi?”

Akechi Kenwu said: “No, his name is ‘Kanada Yiyi’.”

“Kkindaichi…” Edogawa Conan suddenly became excited, “Is he a relative of Kindaichi Kosuke?”

Akechi Kengo nodded: “He is the grandson of Kindaichi Kosuke.”

“Is he still working as a detective?” Edogawa Conan asked curiously, “I have never heard of his name.”

Akechi Kenwu said: “He has graduated from college now. The last time I communicated with him, he told me which company he was working as a clerk in. He said it was difficult to find a job now. I also asked him if he wanted to work in the Metropolitan Police Department.”

“Huh?” Edogawa Conan was stunned.
