158. A bouquet of flowers
"Hey, are there anyone there?"
Hattori Heiji wondered, "Wait, this sound sounds like that?"
"Chen Xing is with me." Conan said.
"He just said eight people were... So that's it, I understand." Hattori Heiji exclaimed, "On the day of the fire, Naoko Bengu was probably forced to leave the elevator she had already taken. Because the eighth tenant wanted to take the elevator, she forced her..."
"The eighth tenant is Mr. Mieno, who is in a twilight voice." Conan said in a deep voice.
Hattori Heiji immediately said: "The other six people are in the elevator, each with different red circles on the seven cylinders, and the last one is the location of the original site of the lady I-shoulder."
"It should be like that," Conan said: "The shape of the mahjong plaque itself is like an elevator. The black line in the middle of the back means the elevator door."
"Yes, when Shino Shuhei finally entered the elevator, the alarm bell rang, so he wanted to drive another person out of the elevator, and the lady in the early stage became his target." Hattori Heiji took a deep breath, "The other six people either pretended not to see it or were afraid that they would be driven off the elevator, so they agreed to Shino Shuhei's behavior. The lady in the early stage who failed to get on the elevator was killed because she had no time to escape."
Chen Xing listened to his reasoning clearly, and couldn't help but remain silent.
"Where is Tuofang? After listening to my reasoning, do you have any supplements?" Hattori Heiji asked.
"I was just thinking about the meaning of the English letters on the mahjong plaque." Chen Xing said.
"That's right. It's really strange that the seventh one is not an English letter but a triangle." Hattori Heiji thought, "But if the last red circle represents my lady, the prisoner shouldn't kill anyone again."
"I hope so, in short, I will go to find Mr. Mizutani first." Conan relaxed his tone and said, "Thank you, Hattori, I mean it."
"Kudo." Hattori Heiji paused and said with a smile: "We are the Iron Triangle, and I just discovered a very delicious mixed roast. I will take you with me next time. I must come to play with me."
Conan was stunned for a moment, and Chen Xing said a little loudly, "Okay."
"Then we're going to make a decision." Hattori Heiji said seriously: "Tuya, you must bring Kudo here, I'll wait for you."
"Okay, I'll go," Conan said.
After hanging up the phone, Chen Xing started the car and said, "Hatsuke seems to have noticed something."
"He has always been very keen." Conan sank softly into the seat.
"I will take you to eat the mixed roast." Chen Xing said calmly.
"What?" Conan looked over subconsciously.
Chen Xing didn't speak anymore.
...
When I saw the temple in Chiba that Shun Sawamura mentioned, I happened to see an old monk riding an electric bike downhill, and a woman and a middle-aged man were standing at the entrance of the temple.
"It's not Mizutani Hirosuke." Chen Xing said.
"It should be Ben Kazuki and his mother." Conan guessed.
Heiji Black parked on the side of the not-wide road. After getting off the car, they happened to hear the woman say, "I only received an anonymous bouquet today."
"Yes." Benzhang nodded silently.
Conan walked over and said childishly: "Hello, I am the assistant of the famous detective Kogoro Mori, and I am here to investigate a case."
After hearing his words, I was stunned for a moment with the tree, but immediately said, "Let's talk about it in another place."
So the three of them walked along the small road in front of the temple gate and spoke.
"You are really the assistants of Detective Maori?" Kazuki Ben said curiously.
"Yes." Chen Xing nodded.
The face without many expressions is more open-minded, unlike fake.
Conan said: "We wanted to ask Mr. Mizutani for a clear question to investigate a case, but he didn't seem to be here to attend the juris convention?"
Bengai Kazuki nodded and said, "Yes, he came early this morning, left the bouquet and left."
"Leave a bouquet?"
"Yes, my parents still can't forgive Kosuke who ran away with my sister until now."
"The anonymous bouquet that my aunt just mentioned was given by Mr. Mizutani." Conan said: "I only received one bouquet today means that I have received a lot of bouquets in previous years?"
Benaka Kazuki said, "In addition to him, someone will also send it."
Conan asked quickly: "When did you know where it was delivered?"
"I know, let me see." Kazuki took out a notepad from his pocket of clothes and flipped through it. "I received four bundles on the funeral of the previous year, from Matsumoto City, Kawasaki, Numazu, and Kamakura. I received three bundles on the first anniversary of my death last year, and this time I received them from Toshizawa, Odawara and Hachio."
Conan looked up and looked at each other with Chen Xing.
--Qianfen all comes from the victim's residence.
Bengu Kazuki hesitated, "When I met Kosuke this morning, he said something very strange."
"Strange?"
“He said ‘There are eight unforgivable people, and there is only one left at the moment.’”
...
It was getting late and the car was in.
"There are nine tenants on the sixth floor of the hotel. Except for Nanako and Mizutani, who have died, the other seven have been killed. Who is the remaining one?"
Conan fell into deep thought.
Chen Xing gently lit the steering wheel with his fingers, "Can it be Mr. Mizutani himself? After all, he regretted it too, right? He left the lady alone because he went to meet his friend."
Conan was stunned. If this was the case, wouldn’t it mean that Mizutani Hirosuke would commit suicide?
At this moment, a ringtone interrupted the two of them.
Chen Xing answered the phone, "What's wrong? Yuanzi."
"Do you have time tonight?"
"Conan and I are investigating the case."
"Oh?" Yuanzi said in surprise: "Are you with that little devil?"
"It was the request of Uncle Maori." Chen Xing said, "So tonight..."
"Don't you ask what's wrong?" Yuanzi's tone was a little disappointed.
Chen Xing couldn't help but feel soft, "You said."
"Well, today is the Chinese Valentine's Day. I want to go see Xingxing and be with you, okay?" Yuanzi's voice was soft and she was a little embarrassed.
Chen Xing lowered his eyes. Conan next to him was smiling kindly, but a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in his mind.
"I see!"
"What is that little devil Conan shouting?" Yuanzi was startled.
"Are you eating?" Chen Xing changed the subject and glared at a boy next to him with an excited look.
Yuanzi deliberately chewed the potato chips very loudly, "I just want to eat them for you!"
Conan hurriedly said, "Well, Sister Yuanzi, Chen Xing has agreed. He will go on a date with you tonight, but we still have a case to investigate now. Can you wait for you to meet in the evening?"
A young lady who was sitting on the sofa eating potato chips turned red and said stutteringly: "What date is it? The child is talking nonsense, that's OK, the case is important, you guys are careful, I'll wait for him."
After saying that, he hung up the phone considerately.
The sunset was setting, and Chen Xing looked at the phone that was extinguished on the screen and was silent for a long time.
Conan was excited and said, "It's the stars! The seven crime scenes represent the positions of six of the North Stars and the Big Dipper!"
Chen Yui came back to his senses, "I think I should tell Dr. Agasa and Haibara."
