Conan: Rice Flower Spring

Chapter 50. Really died suddenly
The gate of Tsujimura's house opened, and two cars drove in one after another. Hayashi Ryoma and his group followed Tsujimura Kimie in the courtyard of the house.

Tsujimura Kimie and the Tsujimura family's butler led the way in front, and Kaneda followed behind them, just separating Hayashi Ryoma and the others from Tsujimura Kimie and the butler.

Lin Longma, Mao Li and his group lagged behind Jintian a little and continued the topic they had just unfinished.

"By the way, President Lin, are you investigating the same thing as us?"

It was originally taboo for a detective to inquire about the commissions of his colleagues, but Hayashi Ryoma was not a detective, and secondly, through a brief conversation, he had already gotten to know the personality of this high school student named Hattori Heiji.

So I won’t take it as an offense.

“I’m not here to investigate, I’m here to deliver the investigation report at the request of Mr. Tsujimura.

Our company nominally does not accept detective investigation commissions, but you know what I mean.” Hayashi Ryoma gave Maori Kogoro a look and said, “Mr. Tsujimura is really too generous.

So much so that we had to make an exception.”

Lin Longma didn't try to hide it. It wasn't shameful at all to run a company and make money.

"By the way, I haven't asked who you are here to investigate?"

"Katsuki Sachiko, the fiancée of Mrs. Tsujimura's son. President Hayashi too?" Hattori Heiji asked curiously.

"Ah, yes, three days ago, Mr. Tsujimura came to the company and asked us to investigate Ms. Katsuragi.

But he didn't say that Miss Katsuragi was his future daughter-in-law." Lin Ryoma said to Hattori Heiji in a surprised manner.

"This is strange." Kogoro Mouri, who had been silent all this time, looked puzzled.

Due to the professional ethics of a detective, Maori Kogoro was very cautious when he was not drunk. He naturally could not openly say the client's investigation target.

But if Hattori Heiji said this, then it wouldn't matter. Isn't it normal for high school students to not be as thoughtful as adults?
It can be considered a small bug.

At this point, the information that needed to be exchanged has been completed through Hattori Heiji, so he can naturally express his own opinions.

For example, Tsujimura Isao and Tsujimura Kimie are obviously from the same family, so why did they have to find people to investigate the same person twice?

And what did Tsujimura Kimie mean by what he said at the door? Tsujimura Isao gave Tsujimura Kimie the task of finding someone to investigate, but he changed his mind again?

A commission has been shrouded in mystery before it has even been officially processed. Kogoro Mouri is distressed, Heiji Hattori is in high spirits, but Conan is drowsy and staggering like a drunk.

"Mr. Maori, what's the situation with your child?" After observing for a long time, Lin Ryoma finally couldn't help but ask Maori Kogoro.

This Edogawa Conan is so sick (drunk) now, why are we still letting him go out with us?
Maori Kogoro was helpless about this: "There is nothing I can do, this kid just won't stay at home and insists on coming with me.

Mrs. Tsujimura was in a hurry, so I had to bring them here together."

He was speechless. Wouldn't it be a waste of time to bring a sick elementary school student to his house?

Lin Longma didn't say anything more, he just felt that this kid's enthusiasm for detective commissions was a little different from ordinary people.

Led by Kimie Tsujimura, everyone changed into slippers at the entrance and followed her to the study on the second floor to meet Isao Tsujimura.

On the way, I passed by Tsujimura Toshimitsu who was showing off his fish stamps. I said hello and then came to the door of the study.

There was a loud opera sound coming from the study, and Tsujimura Kimie knocked on the door for a long time but got no response.

Tsujimura Kimie wondered if her husband had fallen asleep in the study again, then took out the key and opened the door. As expected, the door was open. In addition to the louder opera sounds, Lin Longma also saw Tsujimura Isao sleeping at his desk.

Unlike Hattori Heiji, Hayashi Ryoma did not look around as soon as he entered the study. He just stood there and watched Tsujimura Kimie come to Tsujimura Isao and called him several times but got no response.

Tsujimura Kimie seemed to feel something was wrong, so he reached out and gently pushed Tsujimura Isao, and then.
Then this diplomat with a typical bureaucratic appearance fell to the ground with a bang.

Lin Longma had to admit that Tsujimura Kimie was a good player. Although he was the one who pushed Tsujimura Kimie to kill her husband to prove her truth, Lin Longma really didn't expect that this elder sister would kill people without hesitation and specially find a famous detective to come.

Is this because she is afraid that the police won’t be able to catch her if she kills someone?

As soon as Tsujimura Isao fell to the ground, the three generations of people in the room rushed to his side.

After an inspection, the death of Tsujimura Isao was announced to everyone. This promising diplomat died on an ordinary working day.

"Jintian, go and help call the police." Lin Longma ordered Jintian beside him.

Kaneda nodded in understanding. What Lin Longma said about calling the police was definitely not just calling the police. The death of Tsujimura Isao was not a big deal, nor was it a small matter.

Some information can be of great value in the hands of the right people, and it just so happens that there are many members of the Yi Xin Society who can make good use of this information.

Kaneda needs to call the Metropolitan Police Department and report the incident to the police in addition to notifying the members of the Isshinkai.

Hayashi Ryoma, who stayed in the study, had no intention of competing with the detectives for "business". At this moment, he stood with Mao Li Ran like an outsider.

His attention was more focused on the little figure jumping up and down at the scene - Edogawa Conan looked really serious in investigating the case.

Tsujimura Kimie seemed to be frightened and shocked. She just stood aside and cried silently.

Then came Hattori Heiji and Edogawa Conan, two minors, who conducted surface examinations on Tsujimura Isao's body almost simultaneously.

'The dead man is still warm, and his lips are starting to turn purple. This is it! '

Conan's expression froze when he saw a needle hole behind Tsujimura Isao's ear, and he subconsciously began to search around the corpse.

Just when he seemed to have discovered something and was about to move closer,
"Daung!"

Lin Longma narrowed his eyes subconsciously. The two big heads collided really hard!

"Kudo from Kanto, Hattori from Kansai. Is it really such a coincidence?" Lin Ryoma muttered subconsciously.

"President Lin, what did you say?" Xiaolan heard Lin Longma's mumbling, but she didn't hear it clearly so she asked subconsciously.

"No, nothing." Lin Longma shook his head, and then asked Xiaolan curiously: "By the way, Maori classmate, does Conan kid usually behave like this when he encounters an incident?"

Hayashi Ryoma's words reminded Mori Ran, and just when Hattori Heiji was about to get angry, Mori trotted over and hurriedly apologized.

"Sorry, sorry, I didn't pay attention to Conan!"

"Really? How can you let a child see a corpse like this? You are really too careless!"

Hattori Heiji complained casually and continued to observe the scene.
