Conan: I'm a zaibatsu in Tokyo

Chapter 87 Solving the Case: He Choked to Death (Seeking Monthly Tickets)
"Brother Zhengyi?"

"Conan." Masakazu nodded to Conan.

Why didn't you go to the scene of the death, but found me first? What's with that?

"Make way, everyone! I am Kogoro Mouri!"

Kogoro shouted loudly, calling everyone gathered around the dead body away to prevent them from disturbing the scene.

"Ran, call Inspector Megure first."

"it is good."

Xiaolan was already very familiar with the procedure for reporting an incident to the police.

Conan stepped forward to examine the deceased's body, but his claws were immediately met with a painful blow from Kogoro Mouri, and he was thrown away violently.

"Hey kid! Don't mess up the scene!" Kogoro Mouri yelled at Conan.

"understood."

Conan looked at Kogoro Mouri with a mixture of resentment and trepidation.

Uncle Mori is far inferior to Shoichi.

This is the difference between young people and old fogies: one encourages children to explore boldly, while the other just wants them to get out of the way and stop causing trouble.

Ugh!
Only Zheng Yi acknowledges my dedication to the truth.

I envy the younger sister who was adopted by Zheng Yi. I can't imagine how free and carefree she must be.

"Why isn't Ai coming out yet?" Masakazu asked.

Did it fall into the toilet?

Zheng Yi wanted to leave before the police arrived to avoid being questioned again.

"Seal off the restaurant! Don't let anyone out! The murderer might be hiding inside!" Kogoro Mouri shouted again.

Very well, Kogoro Mouri has blocked his escape route.

When Ai came out of the restroom, she saw that the outside was a mess, with restaurant staff blocking the entrance and a group of people gathered in a corner of the restaurant, not knowing what they were doing.

She blinked, walked over to Zheng Yi, and asked, "What happened?"

"Do you remember the person you bumped into when you went to the restroom?" Zheng Yi asked.

Ai nodded.

He seems to be a good person who stole Zhengyi's business.

"You killed him," Zheng Yi said regretfully, lamenting the fragility of life.

Ai: !!!
He picked up Ai and showed her the dead people surrounded in the middle.

The deceased's face was swollen and bluish.

"Look what you've done to this person," Zheng Yi said.

Ai nodded weakly.

Yes, I'm the one who ran over and killed that person.

A seven or eight-year-old girl ran over and killed an obese adult.

After being put down by Shoichi, Ai poked Shoichi's thigh with her finger and said, "Are we still eating here later?"

"How can we eat when someone's dead? The restaurant will probably have to close down," Zheng Yi said.

"Oh."

Ai nodded with her head down.

After much difficulty, I finally made up my mind to add something to Zheng Yi's food.

It can only be said that Zheng Yi was lucky, as he lived for another day.

"Make way, everyone."

"Get out of the way."

After receiving Ran's emergency call, Inspector Megure quickly led his team to the scene.

"Brother Mori, what's the situation at the scene?" Inspector Megure asked.

Kogoro Mouri said, "The deceased was named Takeshi Takada, the president of a construction company. He died suddenly while having a meal with Mrs. Kono."

"Is that so?"

Inspector Megure nodded and looked at the officers beside him. But he noticed that none of his officers seemed to be looking at the deceased; instead, they were all staring outside.

Inspector Megure frowned.

How is this going?

Even if a police officer lacks ability, their attitude cannot be poor!
If you arrive at the scene and don't look at the deceased, where should you look?

When Inspector Megure looked in the direction the officers were looking, his gaze was also fixed there.

Zheng Yi is holding Ai and fixing her hair.

Seeing that everyone was looking at him, he gave a reserved smile and greeted the lovely police officers.

"Cough cough!"

Inspector Megure coughed, finally drawing everyone's attention away from Shoichi.

Sato slowly turned his head to look at the corpse on the ground, his eyes serious and solemn.

"What is your relationship to the deceased?" Inspector Megure asked Mrs. Kono.

Lady Kono's face was still filled with terror; her hands trembled uncontrollably as she spoke in a shaky voice:
“I am the wife of an employee of President Takada. My husband broke his arm at the construction site. I am here to discuss compensation with Mr. Takada.”

Officer Megure nodded.

He said to Takagi, "Check the deceased's phone, call his family, and have them come over."

"Yes!"

"Chōmō, examine the body," Inspector Megure said.

"Ok."

Forensic pathologist Chang Zong put on a mask and gloves and began a perfunctory examination of the body. He would not offer any opinion until the deceased's family came over and explained whether he had any relationship with Zheng Yi.

Mrs. Takada arrived at the restaurant quickly.

She was a woman dressed very expensively, covered in gold from head to toe, with a bloated figure and a small birthmark on her face.

Upon arriving at the restaurant, she didn't immediately check on her husband lying on the ground.

Instead, upon seeing Mrs. Kono, he went up to her and slapped her.

"Snapped!"

The sudden slap startled Sato, who then grabbed Mrs. Takada's arm and said:
"I know you are very emotional about your husband's death, but Mrs. Kono may not be the murderer!"

Mrs. Takada shoved Sato aside and looked aggressively at Mrs. Kono, saying:

"If this bitch hadn't seduced Takada, he wouldn't be dead here!"

"Please calm down," Sato said.

Takagi quickly brought over a chair, and the two of them helped Mrs. Takada sit down by supporting her arm.

Mrs. Takada gave a cold 'snort'.

Mrs. Kono looked like a doormat and didn't dare to fight back.

Inspector Megure looked at the deceased's family with a headache and asked Choso, "What caused the death? Poisoning?"

"It's hard to say yet; I need to check it more carefully," Choso said seriously.

Inspector Megure frowned.

Mrs. Takada said with dissatisfaction, "What else is there to investigate? It must have been that man named Masakazu who killed him. Isn't everyone saying he's a serial killer?"

Takada recently snatched a construction project from the Justice Group's company; it was definitely something Justice Group did.

"There's no one else but him. Could it be that this good-for-nothing bastard killed him?"

Mrs. Takada's words made everyone frown.

You can't just say things like that carelessly.

Shoichi, who was braiding Ai's hair, suddenly stopped. "I just found out that Takada exists, okay?"

Seriously, they can pin the blame on me for anyone's death.

"Ahem, how could the murderer be Mr. Zhengyi?"

Chosoka slowly stood up, his eyes shining, and said to Lady Takada, word by word:

"Your husband, Takeshi Takada, simply choked to death because he ate too fast."
