Chapter 51: She's Better at Tricking Me
"Hey, this is obviously a lie, right?"
"If you peek through the gap in the eye mask, you can still see it. It sounds a bit too magical. It's actually cheating, right?"
Yumi Miyamoto saw through the "mystery" at a glance.
After hearing this, Otani Mato did not seem panicked. Instead, he smiled and pointed to the cabinet next to him.
There are some trophies and certificates inside.
Doctor of Education, Internationally renowned right brain development expert, International Academic Contribution Award
"I used to be a professor in the Department of Education at Newport University Japan Branch. For 40 years, I have been devoted to education and hope to contribute to the cause of education."
“Quantum wave speed reading is a good training method to improve memory and also helps develop the right brain.”
"If I want to put it simply, I'll give you an example, that's left-handedness."
"The characteristic of left-handed people is that their right brain, that is, their subconscious brain, is well developed. The majority of people in the world are right-handed, and left-handed people account for 10% of the world's population."
"Looking back at history, it is not difficult to find that there are many famous people who are left-handed. For example, Napoleon, Einstein, Picasso and so on."
"Conscious training helps children develop their right brain, and combined with their own left brain characteristics, they can conduct whole-brain intelligence training, making children more outstanding. This is quantum wave speed reading."
Anna Kurata brought a few glasses of juice, and finally placed a cup of coffee in front of him, then stood aside silently.
She had a faint smile on her face, but it looked forced. She wasn't as enthusiastic about this job as Kaito Taniguchi.
Her brows furrowed slightly, though only for a moment.
Maybe I feel a little bit resistant to this job.
But that's how people are. Sometimes, in order to survive, they do things that they originally didn't want to do or were unwilling to do.
It sounds like there's nothing that can be done about it.
“It does sound reasonable.”
Qinghai Chuantang nodded, seeming to agree with the other party's words.
"right."
Otani Mato was smiling and was about to say something else when the other party's next words made his face freeze and his whole body seemed to be frozen.
“Newport University was founded in 1976 in Newport, Wales, United Kingdom.”
"If it's the United States, it's Christopher Newport University, located in Newport News, Virginia. It was once a branch school of the College of William and Mary in the United States, and later officially became independent."
"But no matter which one it is, they don't have branches in Japan. What's more, you also emphasized that it is 'Newport University of the United States', which makes it even more impossible."
Otani Mado couldn't help but wipe the sweat from his forehead.
"but."
Changing the subject, Qinghai Chuantang continued, "I think some of what you said about 'quantum wave speed reading' makes a lot of sense."
"But since you want to contribute to education, I think it would be quicker to start from the source."
When Otani Mato heard this, he asked in confusion, "How do you start from the source?"
Qinghai Chuantang coughed lightly and said seriously: "That is 'quantum reproduction'."
Quantum fertility?
The children's faces showed confusion. They were already unclear about the concept of "quantum" and now they were even more confused.
After hearing what Qinghai Chuantang said, the slightly older people all showed an expression that said "Are you sure you're not kidding me?"
Obviously, their hearts were shocked and their worldview was impacted.
"I have studied this more revolutionary 'quantum fertility' with Professor Wojciech, a famous obstetrician and gynecologist and fetal education expert."
“Through ‘quantum birth’, mothers can communicate with their babies at a quantum level, which not only deepens the bond between mother and child, but also makes the resulting children smarter and more capable of learning.”
Mado Otani's expression changed from shock to prostration. He never expected that there was someone in the world who could boast more than him.
He almost knelt down and wanted to tell the other party loudly: Please accept me as your disciple.
But fortunately, rationality prevailed in the end, allowing him to suppress this thought.
In order to hide his emotions, he coughed lightly and prepared to drink a cup of coffee to calm his nerves.
Drink up the coffee in the cup. It is only slightly warm at this point, so it won't burn your mouth.
"Let's get back to the point. Regarding this quantum wave speed reading, I want to..."
Before he could finish his words, Otani Mato felt inexplicably irritated and his breathing gradually became difficult.
"An ambulance! Quick! Call the police--"
Unfortunately, Otani Mato only felt ringing in his ears and could not hear anything.
In the end, he fell to the ground, his consciousness gradually blurred, and he felt that the whole world turned black.
"It smells like almonds! Cyanide poisoning!"
She understands the truth, but
"If it's cyanide, even a tiny amount would be lethal. You're really not afraid of death by getting so close to it and smelling it."
As he said that, Qing Hai Chuantang reached out and lifted Conan off the table.
Kurata Anna looked at this scene and seemed extremely nervous. She took a step back and kept saying, "No, it's not me. I didn't."
Fear and terror are common emotional responses.
After all, ordinary people rarely encounter such things. Some people may only see such scenes in the news or in movies and TV shows throughout their lives.
"Since you're in this situation, you should call all your colleagues over, right?"
After Haibara Ai's reminder, Kurata Anna finally reacted and hurriedly ran towards the office area.
Although it is called a company, there are actually not many people.
In addition to the president, Asato Otani, there are secretary Anna Kurata, long-term part-time publicist Kaito Taniguchi, logistics officer Yuji Yokogawa, and managing director Arisa Nishizawa.
Finally, medical personnel arrived in time and took Otani Mato away.
The policeman who came this time was Takagi.
"I already know the general situation. That is to say, Ms. Kurata suddenly felt uncomfortable in her stomach, so after pouring the coffee powder, she went to the bathroom and was gone for about 6 minutes."
"Mr. Yokogawa was the only one left in the office, and Mr. Taniguchi was handing out flyers downstairs, so..."
"Hey, Mr. Officer, could you please not be so arbitrary?"
Yuji Yokogawa showed his dissatisfaction without reservation. After all, no one wants to be wrongly accused of being a murderer.
"Sorry, that's not what I meant. By the way, don't you have another colleague?"
Gao Mu took a look and found it a little strange.
"You mean, is there a sister Sha?"
Kurata Anna thought for a moment and said, "Arisa-sister is out shopping, so she might be back a little late. But looking at the time, it should be soon."
Takagi nodded, "In that case, Ms. Arisa should not be a suspect."
Alibi can be fabricated and even exploited.
"Professor Wojciech once said, 'Until there is definite evidence pointing to someone, anyone could be the murderer.' And this anyone includes you, me, and him who are present here."
"Professor Wozniacki?"
When Takagi heard the name, his expression showed surprise.
Why hadn't he heard of this name? Or even this professor?
Is it because they are from abroad that we know less about them?
But why do I always feel that this name is a bit strange?
Putting aside the doubts in your heart for the moment, the most important thing at the moment is to find the murderer.
"Ah, why are there so many people here? Are they all here to sign up?"
After opening the door and seeing this scene, the woman was a little surprised.
She should be the "Arisa-sister" mentioned by Anna Kurata.
She was dressed in a mature and steady manner, looking like a professional, with the aura of a queen.
"Arisa-sister! The president, he..."
"What happened to the president?"
Nishizawa Yusa walked in and put two large bags in her hands on the table. One bag was filled with a lot of winter melon and barley water, and the other bag was filled with some small toys and the like.
"Miss Arisa, you bought so many things. Was it the president's idea?"
Nishizawa Arisa smiled and shook her head, explaining, "I bought all of this with my own money. After all, the weather is a bit hot now, and winter melon and barley water has the effect of clearing away heat and relieving summer heat, so I prepared to pour it into cups and share it with the children."
"These toys are a reward for them because they will be preparing for the speed reading activity tomorrow."
"It's a pity that the president is usually too stingy to buy these. After all, they are just children, and I don't want them to go back empty-handed. Besides, these little toys are not worth that much money."
After she finished speaking, Nishizawa Arisa suddenly thought of something, looked at Kurata Anna, and asked, "What were you going to say just now?"
"President, President."
Kurata Anna choked up, her eyes moistened, "He's dead!"
Arisa Nishizawa was stunned at first, then she reacted.
"You said, the president is dead? Today is not April Fools' Day. It's not funny to make such a joke."
Yokogawa Yuuji put his hands in his trouser pockets, glanced at her and said, "That woman always likes to exaggerate."
"The president was just accidentally poisoned and has been sent to the hospital. But it was thanks to her 'advantage' that I was able to get in here. Otherwise, I would still be worried about finding a job."
"Mr. Yokokawa!"
Anna Kurata was obviously a little angry, but because there were so many people present, she tried her best to control her emotions.
"Alright, alright, both of you calm down for a moment."
Takagi stepped forward to act as a peacemaker, and then quickly entered the role of "policeman" because he did not forget the purpose of his visit.
He looked at Yokogawa Yuji and asked, "Mr. Yokogawa, during the time that Ms. Kurata was away, you have been in the office area, right?"
"no."
"Eh?"
Yuji Yokogawa took out his cell phone, found the call records, and handed it to Takagi.
Then he said, "Not long after that woman left, I received a call from ZTO Express, asking me to pick up the package outside the door. Taniguchi can prove this."
"If you don't believe me, you can call and ask. It's impossible for me to collude with the staff there, right?"
There is really no reasoning... These chapters are just for fun, as a transition, just like daily life. (I'm about to start talking nonsense, full of thunder, I suggest you skip it)
Having said so much, have you considered quantum fertility?
