Hattori Heiji rewrapped his shirt and frowned slightly, "But this can only be regarded as indirect evidence. Uncle Mori's plan is for us to wait and see until he personally leads the criminal out."
Conan was just about to continue checking the details of the murder weapon when suddenly Hattori Heiji pulled him alertly and motioned him to look down.
"Someone is coming, hide quickly!"
Hattori Heiji quickly put the package of weapons back on the tree branch, then pulled Conan down and hid in the shadows of the tree branches.
Conan lowered his voice, tilted his head slightly and said: "Don't worry, Morizono Kikuto is afraid of heights, he won't climb up, we just need to hide and take pictures of the evidence with our mobile phones."
After saying that, he quietly took out his mobile phone, turned on the camera, and pointed it in the direction of the tree.
The figure under the tree gradually approached, and it turned out to be Kikuto Morizono.
He was wearing a raincoat and deliberately covering his face. He looked around nervously, and after making sure that there was no one around, he took out a long pole and started poking the tree.
He poked carefully until the package of murder weapons was successfully poked out and fell to the ground.
A hint of excitement flashed in Kikuto Morizono's eyes. He quickly picked up the package and a smug smile appeared on his face.
"Successful."
Conan stared at the phone screen and spoke softly.
Hattori Heiji sneered: "He planned to hide these things in Sakuraba Yuji's bag and frame him for the crime. He really underestimated Uncle Mori's arrangement."
Kikuto Morizono hurriedly left the courtyard, unaware that his every move had already been recorded by Hattori Heiji and Conan.
……
Kogoro Mouri walked out of the room in a cool manner with a casual smile on his lips.
Katagiri Kaede tastes good, but his body is too weak and he is now unable to move in bed.
He tilted his head slightly at the door and nodded to Lily Jiang who was waiting there.
Lily Jiang looked at him tenderly, her eyes full of admiration and love.
"Mr. Maori," she said softly, with a hint of teasing in her tone, "A man like you can easily conquer those women in a foreign country, right?"
Mao Li laughed when he heard this, and casually took her in his arms, lowered his head and kissed her lips gently, and said with a smile: "Then you are not jealous?"
Lily Jiang shook her head and answered briskly: "What's there to be jealous about? I am a woman from a wealthy family. It is normal for a capable man from a wealthy family to have multiple women around him."
She spoke in a relaxed tone, with a casual and open attitude, "As long as I am happy with you, it is enough. We don't need marriage to bind each other."
Mao Li nodded with satisfaction, raised his hand and gently stroked her soft hair, and said approvingly: "You are indeed different, Yurijiang. When you accept the Moriyuan family in the future, Beidou Group will also fully support you."
Yurijiang smiled charmingly, her eyes gentle yet shrewd, then turned and walked into the room, ready to take care of Katagiri Kaede who was still emotionally unstable.
Maori stood where he was, slightly adjusted his collar, turned around, took a step forward, and walked casually towards the room where his group was staying.
……
"Dad! You're back!"
When Xiaolan saw Maori coming back, she walked up to him happily.
"Hey, Uncle Maori, did you find anything?"
Toyama Kazuha also found a reason to come over and looked at Maori with blinking eyes.

Chapter 292 Her Happiness
Maori chuckled and waved his hand: "Katagiri Kaede has been pacified, there won't be any more trouble. Next, we just have to wait for the criminal to reveal his whereabouts."
As soon as he finished speaking, Hattori Heiji and Conan hurried in with a hint of excitement on their faces.
They held their phones, looking excited. Hattori Heiji couldn't wait to walk up to Maori and handed him the phone: "Uncle! Take a look at this!"
Conan also smiled and pushed up his glasses: "Now, the murderer has nowhere to escape."
Mao Li took the phone and looked down. The video clearly captured the whole process of Kikuto Morizono stabbing the murder weapon under the tree.
Mao Li's mouth corners slightly raised, and a trace of satisfaction flashed in his eyes: "Well done, you two kids are quite reliable."
The next step is to wait for the criminal to expose himself.
……
Kikuto Morizono felt tense after getting the murder weapon.
He returned to the house, pretended to take a look around, checked what the family was doing, and made sure that no one noticed him, then sneaked towards Sakuraba Yuji's room.
In the darkness, he pushed the door open carefully, almost holding his breath.
The room was pitch black. He groped and found Sakuraba's travel bag, a sinister smile appearing on the corner of his mouth.
"Finally, I can let you in completely..."
He muttered to himself, carefully stuffing the murder weapon into his bag.
However, just as he was about to zip up his pants, the room suddenly became as bright as day.
"It was you who killed him, Kikuto Morizono."
Maori leaned casually against the switch by the door and spoke lightly.
Kikuto Morizono was stunned, with the weapon in his hand frozen in mid-air.
At the same time, Hattori Heiji and Conan raised their mobile phones and clearly captured Kikuto preparing to put the murder weapon into his bag.
Hattori Heiji frowned and sneered: "It seems that you want to make false evidence and let Sakuraba Yuji take the blame, right?"
Mao Li calmly lit a cigarette and slowly walked towards Kikuto, his tone frighteningly calm: "Do you think you can get away with this opportunity?"
Kikuto Morizono's face turned pale. He pretended to be calm, quickly hid the weapon behind his back, and tried to explain himself: "What are you talking about? Don't you all know that I'm afraid of heights? I can't do the secret room technique you mentioned before, Mr. Maori!"
Mao Li smiled slightly, with a hint of disdain in his eyes: "The so-called secret room technique is just a cover you prepared for me. The real flaw of this technique is the bloodstain."
Kikuto's face turned paler and paler, and his voice began to tremble: "Blood...?"
"That's right,"
Mao Li took a few steps closer to him and said slowly, "There are bloodstains on the door lock and the windows, but there is no bloodstain on the balcony. What does this prove? It proves that the murderer did not escape from the balcony at all."
He paused and took a deep puff of cigarette: "Whether it is you or Yuji Sakuraba, you can't jump off the balcony without any tools. The murderer has been wearing gloves, and it is impossible for him to take off his gloves on the balcony. This is not in line with common sense."
Morizono Kikuto was in a panic and said hurriedly, "Then tell me, how did Butler Shigematsu die? What method did I use to create the secret room?"
At this time, Conan finally couldn't help laughing and whispered: "You didn't use any complicated techniques at all, because you were in that room from the beginning and never left!"
Kikuto Morizono was horrified, his pupils suddenly shrank, and cold sweat dripped from his forehead.
He stared at Conan, his lips trembling slightly: "No... Impossible..."
Maori Kogoro walked leisurely to the window and added with a smile: "You were hiding next to the broken window, hiding yourself perfectly with the blinds and curtains."
He pointed to the window, his eyes relaxed, and said, "You have already planned everything."
Conan then added: "Why did you move the body of Butler Shigematsu and leave such a long trail of blood on the ground? The purpose is simple, just to make us pay attention to the body and blood after breaking into the house and ignore you."
Maori nodded in agreement, his expression calm: "Hattori and Conan are inexperienced and were completely fooled by your trick. They followed the route you designed step by step and did not suspect that you were still in the room."
"After you killed Butler Shigematsu, you set up the trap in the secret room, took off your bloodstained clothes, wrapped up the murder weapon and gloves, and quietly threw them onto the tree outside."
As Mao Li was speaking, he looked at Morizono Kikuto's expression with a hint of mockery on his face. "Then, you broke the window and created the illusion that the murderer escaped through the window. You knew we were downstairs and immediately attracted our attention. When we found the body, you walked out from the dark corner of the room and blended in with us as if nothing had happened. It was really perfect."
Morizono Kikuto gritted his teeth, veins popping out on his forehead, and struggled to defend himself: "Anyone can do this! Not just me!"
Mao Li smiled and shook his head, saying firmly: "No, you are wrong. You are the only one who would do this, because you are afraid of heights, so you can't escape from the balcony. You chose to wrap the murder weapon tightly and then threw it onto the tree as if it were a heavy object. This is the biggest flaw in your method."
He paused, took a puff of his cigarette, and casually pulled out his phone, "What's more, we have video evidence of you retrieving the murder weapon yourself."
Kikuto Morizono was in complete despair. His legs went limp and he slumped to the ground with a hollow look in his eyes, as if all the strength in his body had been drained.
Morizono Kikuto suddenly lost control of his emotions. He gritted his teeth and began to shirk responsibility, saying excitedly, "It's all that guy's fault! He said that if I didn't cancel the engagement, he would tell me everything I did in the company... He was the one who arranged the engagement in the first place. I really don't understand!"
He waved his hands angrily, as if trying to shake off all responsibility, "If I don't kill him, he will blackmail me for the rest of my life!"
Morizono's voice echoed in the room, full of resentment and unwillingness.
He continued to mutter to himself, as if trying to justify his crime: "He must want Sakuraba and Xiaofeng to get married... That's why I framed this crime on Sakuraba who wanted to steal my fiancée!"
Maori Kogoro narrowed his eyes and interrupted Morizono's self-defense in a harsh voice: "Sakuraba is not trying to steal your fiancée!"
His voice was like a sharp blade, ruthlessly cutting through Morizono's sophistry.
"Yuji Sakuraba is the lost brother of Katagiri Kaede!"
Morizono's expression froze, with a hint of astonishment in his eyes.
He was apparently unaware of this information.
Mao Li continued coldly: "Butler Shigematsu initially misunderstood Miss Katagiri and thought she liked you. But in fact, she approached you only to confirm Sakuraba Yuji's identity. She just wanted to reunite with her brother."
Maori's voice gradually became low, "Butler Shigematsu later learned the truth and just wanted to stop you from forcibly marrying Miss Katagiri. He knew that Miss Katagiri and Yuji Sakuraba left Tokyo and returned to their hometown, which would be her happiness."
Kikuto Morizono's face turned pale instantly, as if he had been hit hard.
His lips trembled, as if he wanted to refute, but no words came out.

Chapter 293: Terahara Mari's Complaint
Kikuto Morizono stood in the middle of the room, his hands trembling, his face full of regret and despair.
He finally realized that he had reached a point of no return and could no longer make any excuses for his behavior.
The heavy air made it almost impossible for him to breathe. He lowered his head and spoke with difficulty: "Yes...I did it...I killed Butler Shigematsu. I just wanted to get rid of his blackmail against me."
Kikuto Morizono's voice was choked and his eyes were empty, completely losing his previous arrogance.
Yuji Sakuraba was released from the room and bowed to Mori in gratitude.
At that time, Maori had already made an agreement with Yuji Sakuraba to cooperate in the acting. Now that the criminal has been successfully caught, everyone is happy.
Katagiri Feng immediately rushed forward, tears welling up in her eyes, her voice trembling: "Brother Sakuraba, I finally found you..."
Sakuraba Yuji nodded gently and whispered comfortingly: "It's okay, Feng, everything is over."
At the same time, Morizono Mikio stood in a corner of the room without saying a word, with a heavy expression.
As the head of the Morizono family, he must take responsibility for the family's mistakes.
Morizono Mikio slowly walked towards Maori Kogoro, his voice low but firm: "All this is the fault of our Morizono family. I have decided to cancel the wedding of Morizono Kikuto and Miss Katagiri Kaede."
He paused, his eyes showing deep regret, "No matter how serious Kikuto's mistake was, it has nothing to do with Miss Katagiri. We, the Morizono family, bear all responsibility. I will announce this news tomorrow."
When Morizono Mikio's voice fell, the whole audience fell into silence.
Everyone realized that the Morizono family would pay a heavy price for all this.
Morizono Mikio then announced: "From today on, I will no longer manage the affairs of the Morizono family. This family...will be left to Yurie to manage."
Baihe Jiang stood aside and nodded slightly. She had also expected this result.
However, with Mr. Mori's help, managing the Morizono family is not a difficult task.
……
Everyone started to leave. Katagiri Feng blushed and walked to Maori, whispering softly: "Thank you, Mr. Maori... If it weren't for you, my brother and I would never have been able to escape this disaster..."
Her voice was full of gratitude and shyness.
Mao Li smiled slightly and reached out to touch her head. "No need to thank me, Feng. As my woman, you can be bolder and rely on me."
"Yes! Mr. Maori!"
Katagiri Kaede smiled sweetly like a kitten and leaned against Maori in a dependent manner.
Maori made a phone call and asked Mari Terahara to come and arrange the follow-up matters. "Mari, arrange for someone to accompany Katagiri Kaede and Sakuraba Yuji back to their families and help them rebuild their homeland."
