Chapter 704 The Bride-to-be Suddenly Died
On the other side, Conan also took in every scene in the restaurant.
Lai Tai, who had just been accompanying him, and the man in sunglasses came out of the bathroom one after another, which caught his attention.
Although I saw Youye go into the bathroom, judging from his reaction, he obviously didn't care about these things.
Conan turned to Maori Kogoro and asked: "Well, today's banquet can actually be regarded as Uncle Kogoro's class reunion, right?"
"Yes," Maori Kogoro responded, "It seems that the newlyweds' wedding banquet has been moved to another day. It seems that they will go on a honeymoon right after the wedding."
Mao Lilan said with some regret: "It's a pity that my mother couldn't come because she was too busy with work."
Kogoro Maori made a snort, muttered something, and took a sip of beer with a depressed look.
Conan asked curiously: "Then, is the guy wearing sunglasses over there also Uncle Kogoro's classmate?"
Maori Kogoro glanced back and said casually, "I don't remember. After all, I haven't seen many of them for 20 years. It's normal that they have changed so much that I can't recognize them."
"Is that so?" Conan said innocently, but he was still a little skeptical in his heart. The man in sunglasses was obviously older than Kogoro Mouri and didn't look like a classmate.
Suddenly, there was a sound of glass breaking.
Yuya turned around and saw that Banba Raita and Amuro Toru had fallen to the ground, with a pool of water and a broken cup between them.
"Hey, what are you doing?" The foreman hurried over and questioned Amuro Toru angrily.
Toru Amuro explained somewhat uneasily: "No, it's this guest who suddenly...Sir, are you okay?" He reached out his hand to Banba Yoshita with concern, trying to help him up.
"Don't touch me!" Banba Raita angrily opened Amuro Toru's hand.
The host Lai Tai stood up and suddenly hissed. He looked at his right hand, which was scratched by many glass fragments.
"Banchang, are you okay?" the classmate next to him asked worriedly.
"It's okay, it's just a minor injury." Banchang Lai Tai said a few perfunctorily, took out his mobile phone, ignored his classmates, walked aside and started making a call.
"Hello, is this Hatsune Miku? Where are you now?" Apparently, he was calling his newlywed wife.
"What? What goodbye? What are you talking about?" The place where Banchang Lai Tai was standing was not far from You, and his voice was heard.
Yuya subconsciously looked up and saw that Banba Laitai changed his hand to answer the phone: "What are you talking about? Where are you?"
As Banjo Laitai spoke, he looked out the window unconsciously.
"boom!"
Suddenly there was a loud noise.
Everyone looked outside in surprise, and a car suddenly exploded, and was engulfed in flames in the blink of an eye.
"What, what happened?" There was a sudden commotion in the restaurant.
Banjo Laitai listened to the busy tone on his phone and showed an expression of disbelief on his face: "Could it be that the car... is Hatsune Miku?"
"What?" Youye stood up with a whoosh.
Maori Kogoro stood up, without letting Maori Ran, who was sitting on the outermost seat, move aside. He jumped out directly over the table, shouting, "Ran, contact the fire truck, ambulance and police immediately!"
"I see!"
"Mio, stay here and don't walk around."
Yuya followed suit.
···
The police are here.
That’s right, it’s Inspector Megure and his men again.
Inspector Megure was too lazy to care about the fact that Kogoro Mori and Yuya were present at the same time. After briefly understanding what happened, he began to investigate the scene.
The person originally sitting in the car had been burned. Based on the treatment marks on the deceased's teeth, the forensic department initially speculated that the deceased should be the owner of the car, Hatsune Kato.
Inspector Megure exhaled and asked, "I heard that before the car exploded, someone received a call from Miss Kamon saying she wanted to commit suicide. Is that true?"
Takagi Wataru nodded: "It has been confirmed."
Two large suitcases were found in the trunk of the car, and it looked like the car was going on a long journey.
Maori Kogoro came over and said, "This should be what they were originally going to use for their honeymoon. The deceased was originally scheduled to hold a wedding with my old classmate tomorrow, but unexpectedly..."
Inspector Megure narrowed his eyes.
Takagi Wataru was very puzzled: "Why would such a happy person suddenly commit suicide?"
Maori Kogoro sighed: "Who knows, maybe it's because of fear of marriage?"
There are many people who suffer from a fear of getting married. Some will show obvious anxiety, and in serious cases, their wedding will be ruined. What's worse, there are also people who commit suicide like Hatsune Kato.
"Not necessarily, Uncle Kogoro." Yuya's voice suddenly sounded.
Several people looked over in surprise, and saw Youye squatting beside the car, looking at something on the ground.
Yuya picked up a nail from the ground through his gloves: "Ms. Jiamen went to the nail salon two hours ago. This fake nail is still new. It is very likely hers. Officer Takagi, please take it for identification."
"Okay, I understand." Takagi Wataru responded, walked over and put the nails into the evidence bag.
Inspector Megure next to him had a subtle expression: Brother Kamiya, the way you direct my men to do their work is becoming more and more skilled.
"What, not suicide, but murder?"
When he learned of this possibility, Kogoro Mori was very surprised.
Inspector Megure explained that the nail polish that Yuya found was indeed hers after comparing it with the photos sent by Hatsune Kato and confirming it from the nail salon.
On the front of the manicure, they found some dandruff, which they inferred belonged to the murderer.
Banba Laitai was so anxious that he rushed forward and grabbed Inspector Megure's collar and asked, "Who, who killed her?"
Inspector Megure looked at the man in front of him and asked, "You are the man who will marry Miss Kamon, right?"
The host nodded.
Inspector Megure looked at his bandaged right hand and asked, "What happened to the injury on this hand?"
The companion Lai Tai was stunned for a moment, then explained: "This was caused by the broken pieces of the cup when I fell just now."
Inspector Megure prolonged the ending of his "hmm".
Takagi Wataru took out an evidence bag with a comb in it: "Excuse me, is this your comb?"
Banba Lai Tai was a little confused, but still replied: "It's mine. But I should put it in the travel suitcase, right?"
Inspector Megure said in a deep voice: "Yes, we found it in your suitcase. To be on the safe side, we used the hair on the comb and the dandruff on the tip of the nails for DNA testing, and the result was..."
The companion Lai Tai looked a little unhappy, and a bad premonition suddenly arose: "What happened in the end?"
Inspector Megure's expression turned serious, and he said slowly, "The results are almost exactly the same."
"Huh?" People in the restaurant started talking in surprise.
Banba Laitai's pupils shrank suddenly, a gray color covered his eyes, and his face was full of disbelief: "What are you talking about?"
Inspector Megure didn't say anything, but just looked at Banba Ryota with a scrutinizing gaze.
