"This, this, this..."

Kenzaki Osamu had collapsed to the ground in fear. Maori rushed into the bathroom and the scene in front of him made his heart sink.

A naked woman lay quietly in the bathtub, with a deep cut on her neck. Blood was flowing out, dyeing the entire bathtub red.

Xiaolan and Sonoko rushed in following Maori, and when they saw this scene, they exclaimed in surprise.

Yoko Okino covered her mouth, tears welling up in her eyes.

"Stop the others! Especially the men!"

Maori's face was heavy as he stretched out his hand and directly grabbed a bath towel to cover Kusano Fumio's body.

He looked back and saw that Xiaolan had already caught the little brat Conan who was trying to rush in, while Okino Yoko and Sonoko stopped the frightened Makuma Atsushi and Kenzaki Osamu. It seemed that there was no big problem.

"Tai Mei, keep an eye on Miss Yue Ye, then call the police and an ambulance."

Maori turned his head and looked at Hoshino Terumi, who had been looking at him calmly. She was indeed very interested in detectives and solving cases, and her mentality was quite good. Even this situation did not waver her.

He simply gave this important task to Terumi Hoshino.

"You mean..."

Hoshino Terumi understood and opened her charming starry eyes wide. She was about to say something when she was interrupted by Maori.

"Everything is suspicion now, there is no evidence, so after you finish the call, go and accompany Miss Yue Ye who may be frightened. I will check on Miss Kusano's condition."

Maori took out a pair of gloves from his pocket and put them on himself, then walked up to Kusano Kaoru with a serious face.

Maori wrapped Kusano Kaoru in a bath towel and carefully carried her out of the bathtub.

The water in the bathroom had been dyed deep red by the blood and gave off a strong smell of blood.

He laid Kaoru Kusano flat on the floor, listened to her heartbeat, checked it, and then breathed a sigh of relief.

Still alive!

He just lost too much blood and fell into a coma, which was a small problem for Maori.

Maori reached out and began to examine the wound on her neck. He carefully observed the cross-section of the wound and frowned.

"This wound..."

Maori muttered to himself, the cross-section of the wound looked a little strange, it was obviously not caused by a sharp weapon, but more like a scratch by a sharpened fingernail.

He gently pushed aside the edge of the wound with his hand, and gradually a bold guess came to his mind.

"This wound is not fatal..."

Mao Li silently looked back at Yue Yexue and said, "The criminal softened his heart at the last moment."

What made her soften her heart?

Maori quickly took out his cell phone and took a picture of the wound. He thought about it and decided to lower the effect of the Holy Light Technique in order to prevent Kaoru Kusano from slowly bleeding to death. He then released it on Kaoru Kusano's neck.

As the Holy Light Technique descended, Kaoru Kusano's face became a little redder and his wounds began to heal.

Conan, who was stopped by Xiaolan from entering the bathroom, still started to struggle outside the door.

After Conan observed the bloodstains along the corridor to the door for a long time, he opened the door and immediately called out: "Uncle Maori, there is a bloody shirt outside."

After stopping the bleeding and bandaging Kaoru Kusano's wound, Kogoro Mouri also walked out.

He saw at the door besides the blood-stained raincoat and gloves, a handkerchief and a bottle of eye drops.

Conan immediately lay down and smelled the eye drops bottle and handkerchief, which had a strong smell of ether.

"A peeping Tom sneaked in and found Miss Kusano, then drugged her, but unfortunately someone saw her appearance, so he killed her to silence her?"

"And then he walked to the door in his bloody raincoat, took it off and ran away?"

Conan pinched his chin and thought, "But this still doesn't make sense. The blood dripped all the way to the door, but there was no sign of being stepped on. In other words, he is a very careful person."

"But if that's the case, seeing so many shoes at the entrance, he should have known that there were many people in the room, and he wouldn't be so bold as to come in like this, right?"

"so……"

Before Conan could figure out what was going on, Maori took one look at the raincoat and said, "It's fake. The murderer is among us."

"really!"

Conan nodded, agreeing with Maori's reasoning.

However, it took him a while to reason just now, but Uncle Maori knew it at a glance. Could he really be an expert?

Conan pinched his chin. Damn it. If only I could go in and take a look at the wound.

Chapter 86: Searching for the Murder Weapon

Soon, medical staff from the hospital came in carrying a stretcher, picked up the wrapped Kaoru Kusano, and rushed out.

The agent Jian Xiong Du also rushed out crying, but Kenzaki Osamu sat aside with weak legs, unable to move.

"Brother Kenzaki, why did you fall down?"

"As Miss Kusano's fiancé, you have to stand up."

Kogoro Mori leaned aside and spoke deliberately to Kenzaki Osamu.

"Mr. Maori, this is a murder case!"

Kenzaki Osamu cried, "Real murders are much more horrific than what we acted out!"

"Why, as an engaged person, shouldn't you try to overcome it no matter how scary it is?"

Maori said loudly on purpose to get the girls' attention.

Kenzaki Osamu's face changed, and he quickly pulled Maori over and said in a low voice: "Mr. Maori, keep your voice down..."

But it was too late, Yoko Okino and Terumi Hoshino had already heard it.

They looked at Kenzaki Osamu with contempt.

Yoko Okino snorted coldly and showed a disappointed expression, while Terumi Hoshino frowned, as if she was disgusted by Kenzaki Osamu's behavior.

Especially Yue Ye Xue, her eyes were complicated and resolute, and she seemed very disappointed with Kenzaki Xiu's behavior.

Xiaolan and Sonoko stood aside and discussed in a low voice.

Sonoko frowned and said, "How could this happen? What on earth has Miss Kusano been through that she would choose such a person to get engaged to?"

"Lan, if you get married in the future, you must choose a powerful man!"

"Don't worry about me, just think about yourself!"

Xiaolan turned her head away with a red face, and Yuanzi muttered: "I don't have to worry about it, after all..."

Sonoko and Xiaolan looked at Maori Kogoro at the same time, and then turned their heads away at the same time. Sensing the contempt of the girls around him, Kenzaki Osamu looked up at Maori, his eyes full of fear and hesitation, but he finally made up his mind.

"Detective Maori, I'm going to tell you something. You must never tell anyone... I'm not actually Kaoru Kusano's fiancé."

Kenzaki Osamu whispered in Maori's ear, his voice trembling with fear, "We pretended to be engaged. The purpose was... to make Yue Yexue jealous."

Maori Kogoro nodded, with a glimmer of understanding in his eyes: "I have long seen that there is no tacit understanding and intimacy between you and Kusano Kaoru that of a real couple."

Conan, who was squatting nearby and eavesdropping, also suddenly realized that they were not a couple?

How come the stinky uncle saw it so early?

When Kenzaki Osamu's disguise was exposed by Maori, he immediately collapsed like a deflated balloon.

He covered his face and said helplessly: "Yue Yexue has always been the goddess in my heart. I know that her feelings for Kusano Xun are very complicated, so I agreed to pretend to be engaged to Kusano Xun in order to attract her attention. I didn't expect the situation to become so complicated now..."

"Mr. Maori, you must solve this case!"

Kenzaki Osamu cried and begged Maori Kogoro for help. Maori patted his shoulder and said in a deep voice, "Leave it to me."

……

Inspector Megure arrived at the scene with a small follower. He had a serious expression and was not even in the mood to joke with Mori.

Because the person in trouble was another artist, and having learned from his previous lesson of not understanding artists, Inspector Megure did a lot of research on them.

As a result, he became even more anxious.

What is this?

The fan club with millions of fans strikes out with an iron fist, the fan club star-chasing girls are directly oppressed by public opinion, and xxn is rampant?

If this case is not handled well, I will probably be bombarded by Kusano Kaoru's fans!

Although her fans are not as many as Yoko Okino, they still account for a certain proportion.

The police were overwhelmed by the public criticism.

They immediately began to investigate, and the chaos at the scene made them realize the seriousness of the matter.

Kogoro Mouri stroked his chin and looked at the little follower beside Inspector Megure. He seemed to be growing more and more prominent recently, and his presence had also become stronger.

What's this guy's name?

It seems to be Miwako Sato who likes the police?

"Takagi, tell me the situation."

Soon, Inspector Megure had completed his investigation of the clues, gathered everyone together, and spoke to Takagi Wataru beside him.

Oh……

This turned out to be Takagi.

Mao Li nodded, and watched Officer Takagi open his notebook and begin to report: "According to the very detailed report from Miss Hoshino Terumi, the victim this time is the popular actress Kaoru Kusano, 20 years old. She was slashed in the throat while taking a bath at night, and is now being sent to the Beido Hospital for emergency treatment."

"According to the preliminary examination, there was a deep wound on Ms. Kaoru Kusano's neck, which seemed to be caused by a sharp weapon. However, no murder weapon was found at the scene. We are currently focusing our search on the bloody clothes found at the door, hoping to find more clues."

Inspector Megure frowned and said, "This wound looks fatal. The murderer obviously carefully selected the weapon, but why didn't he leave any traces?"

"Brother Maori, what do you think?"

Inspector Megure turned to look at Maori Kogoro, who shrugged, "If we can't find the murder weapon at the scene, it's very likely that the murderer has taken it away. We'll focus on the murder weapon. Once we find it, we can test the luminol reaction on it and get evidence."

"In the middle of the day, those who left the living room were Kenzaki Osamu, Kanuma Atsushi, Yoko, Terumi, and Takeno Yuki."

"If there are any suspects, it's these five people."

Everyone nodded. With such a famous detective around, everyone was convinced.

"Okay! Then let's start by finding the murder weapon!"

Inspector Megure gave Maori a thumbs up, then looked at everyone and said, "We are going to search your belongings, please forgive us!"

"We have no problem. As long as we can get rid of suspicion, we can investigate as much as we want."

Yoko Okino and Terumi Hoshino looked at each other and generously showed off their luggage.

"Me too."

Yue Yexue said quickly, hiding her hands behind her back, and Mao Li curled the corners of his mouth.

Mao Li said very clearly that the murder weapon was taken away by the criminal, but he did not say what the murder weapon was.

right?

Miss Takeno who kills people with her fingernails?

Inspector Megure smiled in gratitude at Yoko Okino's cooperation, and then asked a uniformed female police officer to let several suspicious women enter the room one by one and begin searching them.

Takagi also searched Kenzaki Osamu, and even examined Makuma Atsushi who was far away in the hospital.

Since the four Maori people didn't know Kusano Kaoru at all and she had been staying in the living room and had never come out, they skipped the matter after a quick inspection.

……

Naturally, nothing was found during this body search, and Inspector Megure scratched his head in distress.

Chapter 87 I'm going to die anyway

Officer Takagi reported in detail: "Inspector Megure, we have thoroughly searched the entire room, including the sewer, and checked all the suspects' belongings, but we did not find anything that could be used as a murder weapon."

He continued, "According to the hospital investigator's report, even Mr. Jianxiong's glasses were checked, and still no murder weapon was found."
