Stay away from Conan.

Chapter 971 Repeated attacks?
"I'm fine. I think I'll be discharged from the hospital tomorrow. I don't know what question Mr. Wise wants to ask me?"

Fei Yingli responded politely, and then said so, indicating that Gao Yuan doesn't have to be too polite, and can ask casually.

So, hearing what Fei Yingli said, Gao Yuan nodded, and then asked:

"Then, let me get straight to the point—about your liking for 'ZIGOBA', the Swiss brand of chocolate, Lawyer Fei, who else knew before the incident besides you and Mr. Mori?"

Having said that, I feel that the description is not very accurate, so Gao Yuan continued:

"I heard Conan mentioned that when Xiaolan asked you to have dinner with Mr. Mori that day, he mentioned at the dinner table that Lawyer Concubine's favorite 'ZIGOBA' chocolate, and before that, Miss Xiaolan, you know this something?"

"Do not……"

Shaking her head, facing Gao Yuan's question, Xiao Lan couldn't help but reply:

"It was also the first time I knew about it that day."

"So, even Miss Xiaolan didn't know about it, so how did that gangster know?"

After receiving Xiaolan's response, Gao Yuan continued:
"From this, I thought of a great possibility, that is, when you were eating together that day, the gangster was by the side and overheard your conversation! And in the end, the gangster also saw Lawyer Fei, you are not the same as Mr. Mao Li The happy parting scene, that’s why he can be so sure afterwards that after sending you the 'ZIGOBA' chocolate, you will think it was sent by Mr. Mori, so you ate that chocolate without any precautions!"

"I understand what you mean."

In this regard, hearing Gao Yuan say this, Fei Yingli immediately understood the meaning of Gao Yuan's words, so she said:
"Mr. Wise thinks that the gangster is probably the person who appeared beside us when we were in the restaurant and talked about how I like to eat 'ZIGOBA' chocolate!"

Hearing this, Gao Yuan nodded affirmatively——

As far as the plot of the original work is concerned, when Mori Kogoro and Fei Yingli and their family were eating at a French restaurant that day, the sommelier Sawaki Fair was helping them open wine.

If we can say from the testimony here that the person who corresponds to the number "eight" can prove that Sawaki is fair, it is possible to know what brand of chocolate Fei Eri likes to eat, so as to complete the poisonous attack on Fei Eri If it is a human being, then the police can switch from protecting him to investigating him in the next step.

Anyway, although the current situation has some obvious deviations from the original work, after all, I can't rule out the suspicion of the prisoner in the original work, so I still don't feel at ease about this Mr. Fairy Sawaki.

However, Feiyingli and Xiaolan's answers next ruled out this possibility——

"However, I remember that time... We were sitting at the dining table in the lobby. When we were talking about this topic, there were no guests at the other tables, and there was no waiter guarding the side. There should be no one else. People are going to hear about moms loving that 'ZIGOBA' chocolate."

Xiaolan thought about it for a while, and couldn't help answering.

"Indeed. I also remember very clearly that when this topic was discussed, there was no one around."

Fei Yingli also nodded, and answered in the affirmative.

"That being the case, if you rule out that the criminal is the brand of chocolate you like, Lawyer Fei, who accidentally learned about it before the incident, there is only one possibility left, that is, who did you and Mr. Maori treat you before?" Said this about your love of 'ZIGOBA' chocolate."

Although Feiyingli and Xiaolan's answer surprised Gao Yuan a little, and he directly denied that he wanted to start from now on and let the police investigate Zemu's fair situation, but at least there was still a direction for investigation, so Gao Yuan asked like this.

In this regard, upon hearing Gao Yuan's inquiry, Fei Yingli thought for a while, and couldn't help but reply affirmatively:
"About my liking to eat, I have not taken the initiative to tell anyone, and I have never mentioned it to anyone. Even my secretary, Ms. Kuriyama, before I received this 'ZIGOBA' chocolate, did not I don't know how I like to eat this kind of chocolate..."

"That is to say, before this incident happened, Lawyer Fei, you didn't mention to anyone that you like to eat 'ZIGOBA' chocolate?"

Hearing this, Gao Yuan's expression was a little dignified——

"That would be Mr. Molly's side..."

"I don't think Dad should tell this matter?"

To this, Xiaolan couldn't help replying like this:

"After all these years, I haven't heard my father mention that my mother likes to eat that brand of chocolate..."

"Then why would the gangster know about this? Could it be that the chocolate that happened to be chosen is what Lawyer Concubine likes?"

Faced with such a situation, Gao Yuan felt that the key to the matter must be here, otherwise there would be no reason for the criminals to know about it.

So, after thinking for a while, Gao Yuan suddenly asked:

"By the way, the seats in that restaurant are reserved in advance, right?"

"um, yes."

To this, Xiao Lan nodded in response.

"okay, I get it!"

In this regard, after learning about this incident, Gao Yuan was thoughtful, and then had a guess. After saying goodbye to Xiaolan and Fei Yingli, Gao Yuan followed Sato Miwako and left the ward——

"How, did Mr. Akechi find anything? Or should we go to the auto repair shop you mentioned earlier and meet Yumi?"

After walking out of the ward, because she heard Feiyingli and Xiaolan's answers, there was no substantive answer, which was no different from the previous investigation by the police. Miwako Sato asked Gao Yuan curiously. What is the intention.

In this regard, Gao Yuan simply said:

"The investigation of the repair shop and the scene of the car accident is being investigated by police officer Miyamoto, and I am not in a hurry to join her for the time being. For now, I'd better go to the French restaurant where Mr. Mori and his family ate, maybe we will find something!"

"Do you think that Lawyer Fei Yingli likes to eat that kind of Swiss chocolate, or was it overheard by the gangsters while eating in that restaurant?"

Miwako Sato looked at Gao Yuan's attitude and asked with some guesswork.

"Yes. Mr. Maori and Concubine have been separated for so many years. Since Concubine has not revealed her preferences to others, Mr. Maori will not tell outsiders the preferences of his separated wife for no reason. That being the case, the only possible situation is that chance to eat, and that gangster might know about it!"

Having said that, since my vehicle has been damaged, I can only take Miwako Sato's red "MAZDA RX-7" for today's trip, and Miwako Sato will send me there.

However, just as the two got into the car and were about to leave the hospital, Miwako Sato received a call from Takagi Tsutomu——

"Takagi, what are you talking about? Mr. Xu... was killed!"
