Chapter 173 Two people died in one day
Everyone came to the dessert shop that Shangguan Qianxia mentioned.
The three little ones were extremely excited and ran in to look around. Yuan Tai looked at the desserts with shining eyes and said excitedly, "They all look delicious."
"Wow, come and see, this design is so beautiful."
“Like a big rabbit.”
"Yes, that's right. This is the super long-eared rabbit mousse cake. It's the signature of our store."
"Just order whatever you want to eat. It's my treat." Shangguan Qianxia said to them with a smile.
"Yeah!!! Long live Sister Xia Xi!!" x3
Soon, everyone finished eating, and Mitsuhiko suggested going to Dr. Agasa's house to play video games.
"Great!!"
"Let's play video games!!"
"Sister Xia Xi and Xiao Ai should go together!"
Haibara Ai turned her head and looked at Shangguan Chinatsu with a smile, indicating that she should listen to Shangguan Chinatsu.
"Okay."
Then everyone set off together. They did not take a vehicle because this place was quite close to Dr. Agasa's house and could be reached in ten to fifteen minutes on foot.
Along the way, the three kids kept talking to each other. They discussed the content of the game and how to pass it quickly.
At this time, Conan's eyes were very sharp and he immediately noticed Xiaolan, Sonoko and a girl with short hair.
"Sister Xiaolan!" Conan called very naturally.
Xiaolan heard someone calling her and looked in the direction of the voice. She said with some surprise: "It's the new... Conan."
At this time, the girl with short hair looked at Xiaolan in confusion, and then asked: "New Conan, what a strange name."
"No, his name is Edogawa Conan."
While they were talking, several people had already walked up to them.
"Sister Xiaolan, where are you going?"
"Why do you have so many questions, little brat?!"
When Conan heard what Sonoko said, he immediately showed his dead fish eyes.
"Xiaolan." Shangguan Qianxia smiled and nodded at her.
"Ah, let me introduce you, this is..." Before Xiaolan could finish her words, Sera Masumi introduced herself with a smile: "Hello, my name is Sera Masumi."
"Hello, big sister! We are the Junior Detective Team, my name is Mitsuhiko!"
"My name is Yuantai!"
"My name is Ayumi!"
The three of them struck a very strange pose, which made Masumi Sera laugh out loud.
After some self-introductions, everyone got to know each other better.
"By the way, Xiaolan, you just said that this was the only unsolved mystery case that Kudo Yusaku gave up on?"
When Xiaolan heard this, she subconsciously glanced at Conan. A thoughtful look flashed across Conan's eyes. He still didn't understand why his father gave up on that case. The murderer should be brought to justice!
Seeing that Conan didn't react, Xiaolan smiled and continued to say to Sera Masumi, "Well, when Shinichi's father was still living in Japan, he often assisted the police in investigating various cases. It was only that case that his father withdrew halfway through, and Shinichi was very angry at the time."
"Hey, why do you want to quit?"
"Yes, yes, the bad guys should be brought to justice!"
"Yes, that's right, Sister Xiaolan, do you know why?"
"That, I don't know either."
"So, what kind of case is it?" Sera Masumi asked curiously.
"I remember someone seemed to have written something in blood next to the body!"
"Die! That's the word death!" Conan lowered his head, a light reflected from the lenses of his glasses, and he suddenly spoke.
"Yes, that's right, it's the word death!"
At this moment, an anxious voice suddenly came from the alley: "Hey, are you okay?!"
"Cheer up, Takaichi."
Seeing this scene, Shangguan Qianxia's expression became very strange. Two people died in one day? !
Several people ran quickly into the alley, and Xiaolan asked in confusion: "What's going on?"
"Well, this guy didn't show up for work so we looked for him everywhere and didn't expect him to end up here."
"And for some reason there's blood at the corner of his mouth."
Sera Masumi motioned for him to move aside. She touched the neck of the man called Takaichi with her hand, then pried open his eyelids. She quickly came to the conclusion, "I think there is no need to call an ambulance."
"He's dead, right? And he's been dead for at least 9 hours." Shangguan Qianxia also observed the corpse for a while, then spoke.
Sera Masumi looked at Shangguan Chinatsu in surprise, then nodded and agreed with her.
Everyone present was shocked.
Then, Sera Masumi continued, "Does this person have a habit of drinking?"
"Yes, although the doctor once asked him to stop drinking."
At this time, the person who was looking for the deceased asked in confusion: "But why do you know?"
"The whites of the eyes have shown signs of jaundice, the limbs are very thin, and the belly is bloated. This is caused by long-term drinking." Haibara Ai was standing next to Sera Masumi. She had just noticed the deceased's eyeballs. As a biologist, Haibara Ai came to the conclusion immediately.
Everyone looked at Huihara Ai with strange eyes, but she was not panicked at all, and explained calmly: "Sister Xia Xi told me."
"What the lady said is correct. Look, there is a bottle of beer that no one has touched at the beverage outlet of the vending machine. Judging from these circumstances, that can of beer should be the beer that the deceased originally intended to buy before his death. Patients with liver disease are advised to avoid alcohol as much as possible to prevent worsening, but he didn't care at all and still planned to buy beer. From this point of view, I judge that he must have a drinking problem."
Then she turned around and smiled and said to them, "However, generally speaking, people would think that this uncle died because of a ruptured varicose vein due to liver cirrhosis. There was no one around when he started vomiting blood, so he couldn't call for help and died. Normally, that's the judgment."
At this point, Sera Masumi paused and looked at Shangguan Chinatsu with a smile on her face.
Shangguan Qianxia met her gaze, raised her eyebrows, and then said, "It was a murder case committed by someone with malicious intent, right?"
After a pause, Shangguan Qianxia continued, "Because someone deliberately wrote the word 'death'!"
"Yes, Miss Tachibana's insight is indeed amazing. I think you have noticed it a long time ago, right?"
"Yes."
"This... this word 'death' is exactly the same as the one that appeared 10 years ago?!"
Conan stood aside with a frown, a gleam in his eyes. "Dad, why did you withdraw from that case in the first place?"
"You mean, this word 'death' is exactly the same as the word in the case that Shinichi's father withdrew from?!" Sonoko widened her eyes and asked again in disbelief.
