Stay away from Conan.

"As expected..."

After hearing the results of the forensic department's reply, Gao Yuan and Kudo Shinichi seemed to understand something, and then they said to Inspector Megure:
"Almost done, we can start questioning those people..."

After hearing this, Inspector Megure nodded slightly, and immediately began to arrange a place for questioning, so that Gao Yuan and Kudo Shinichi could further investigate the truth of the matter...

……

"Hmm? President Wang He's original cup was also poisoned? Then... that shouldn't be a problem, right? I heard that Miwako committed suicide before her father, President Wang He, and then took poison herself? So from that point of view, it is only natural that Miwako poisoned both her father's cup and her own cup from the beginning, right?

"Isn't it Miwako's original plan that the two of them drink the poison together?
"However, due to an accident, President Wang He's cup was broken, so Meiwazi had no choice but to give her cup to President Wang He first, let him drink the poison, and then choose to take the poison herself when she could...

"This all makes sense, right?"

After being asked by the police, Taiji Tatsumi and others were reluctant at first, but facing the pressure from Inspector Megure and others, Taiji Tatsumi still had to face Gao Yuan. After hearing that the broken wine glass also contained toxins, Taiji Tatsumi thought about it and gave this speculative answer.

In this regard, such speculation seems to be correct. If Wang Hemeihezi's original intention was to use poison to commit suicide together with his father, it is reasonable that there was poison in both of their wine glasses at the beginning.

But the problem is——

"Did you see it?"

In this case, Gao Yuan calmly asked Tatsumi Taiji and others:

"As you who sat at the same table with Miss Wang Hemei and Zi, and even arrived earlier than her, did you see Miss Wang Hemei and Zi poison her and her father's wine glasses after she arrived?"

"Hey……"

Suddenly, when asked this question, Taiji Tatsumi was stunned for a moment, and then he lowered his head and thought silently, as if he was really asked by Gao Yuan's question -

At that time, at the dinner table, did Wang Hemeihezi do anything to poison her and Wang Hemengyan's wine glasses?

Or, is there just the act of touching the wine glass?

Wang Hemeihezi's own wine glass was still okay. After all, after Wang Hemengyan's wine glass was broken, she took her own wine glass and handed it to Wang Hemengyan. During this process, Wang Hemeihezi must have taken her own wine glass. In this way, she had every opportunity to poison her own wine glass.

but……

Where is Wang He Mengyan’s wine glass?

That was not the wine glass placed in front of her. If she had touched that wine glass, people like me and others who were sitting at the same table with her would have noticed it.

But, it seems that this is really not the case...

At this moment, Taiji Tatsumi thought seriously for a moment, and felt that this situation really did not happen. Therefore, regarding the broken cup that was also detected with toxins, Taiji Tatsumi couldn't help but be a little confused. Then he naturally looked at Ooba Satoru and Tatsumi Sakurako, and asked them to see if they had noticed this matter.

But these two people naturally did not notice this. After all, until the incident, they did not pay much attention to these appearances, but were distracted by their own little thoughts. So, after listening to their responses, Gao Yuan could not help but nodded -

It seems that my feeling was correct. Wang Hemei and Zi had no chance to poison Wang Hemengyan's original cup. When I was secretly observing the people at their table, I didn't see Wang Hemei and Zi touching the cup...

Although, it might be because she was just a bystander and didn't look very carefully, but even Taiji Tatsumi and others who were at the same table with her didn't notice it, so it was basically certain.

Wang He Meihezi, she could poison her own cup, but if she touched Wang He Mengyan's cup, this action should be very obvious.

Therefore, based on the current situation, even if what was said in the suicide note left by Wang Hemeihezi was true, and it was indeed she who gave Wang Hemengyan the poisoned cup and asked Wang Hemengyan to drink the poison first, and she committed suicide by taking poison herself, if such a development of events can still be explained, then the source of the toxin in Wang Hemengyan's cup cannot be explained at all.

Therefore, the current situation is that there is poison in Wang Hemengyan’s cup, but at least the poison was not put there by Wang Hemeihezi. So where did the poison in the cup come from?
Gao Yuan couldn't help but think of the chef...

……

"Ah, that's really shocking! The chef served dishes that no one ordered without permission. This is the first time such a thing has happened, and the person who did it was Wang He Mengyan!"

At this time, while Gao Yuan was questioning Tatsumi Taiji and others, Kudo Shinichi split up with Gao Yuan and began to question the staff in the store.

Among them, the first person Shinichi Kudo approached was the chef in the store.

Due to Kudo Shinichi's request, the chef was temporarily arranged to stay somewhere else by Inspector Megure and his team. So now, when the chef is not here, Kudo Shinichi asked the chefs here whether they knew what the chef was thinking when he took the initiative to serve the dishes.

As a result, the chefs in the store were obviously impressed by this question and gave the following answer:

It was surprising that the chef took the initiative to bring the dishes up.

Moreover, the dish served was not specially made for Wang Hemengyan. It was made by a chef in the kitchen who misread the menu and made the wrong dish. In fact, this was a dish that no one had ever ordered. However, the chef still served this dish to Wang Hemengyan.

This move is problematic no matter how you look at it.

Following this topic, the chefs who were asked about this by Kudo Shinichi naturally continued the topic and talked to each other:
"By the way, speaking of this, today's chef is indeed strange..."

"Yeah, it seems like he looked a little strange earlier! And he even knocked over the cup!"

The chefs chatted casually about these topics with each other.

At this point, Kudo Shinichi, who heard this, was also thoughtful——

So that’s it…

"So, you said today's chef was weird? About... when did it start?"

Kudo Shinichi couldn't help but ask... (End of this chapter)
