Chapter 783: Use rock-paper-scissors to decide who will reason first

"Yuya!~"

From a distance, Miyano Shiho waved at Yuya. Sitting next to her were Mouri Ran and Toyama Kazuha, and the three of them were having dinner.

Yuya and a few others walked over.

Yuanshan Heye said with a smile: "Heiji, you guys are here, do you want to eat together? The food in this restaurant is super delicious!"

Hattori Heiji rolled his eyes and complained, "We are working hard to investigate the case! You are eating leisurely here."

"There's nothing we can do!" Yuanshan Heye retorted bluntly, "We are starving!"

Mao Lilan helped explain: "And we are not just eating! Right, Mio-chan?"

Miyano Shiho finished a mouthful of curry rice, nodded and said, "Yes, we ordered the same dishes as those three people, thinking that we might find something this way."

Hattori Heiji asked doubtfully, "Are these the meals they ordered?"

Yuanshan and Ye responded: "Yes, we have confirmed it with the waiter. The one I had was curry rice, the one Xiaolan had was salt ramen, and Mio-chan had the mapo tofu set meal."

Yuya couldn't help but glance at the mapo tofu in front of Miyano Shiho, and asked with some concern: "Mio, the mapo tofu in this restaurant seems to be quite authentic. Is it okay to be so spicy?"

Miyano Shiho was stunned for a moment, and suddenly understood what You was talking about. She twisted her body a little uneasily, snorted and said, "It's okay, you don't have to worry!"

Mao Lilan saw Miyano Shiho's strange look and asked in confusion: "What's wrong with Mapo Tofu?"

"No, it's okay!" Miyano Shiho suddenly raised her voice, her ears red as she changed the subject, "So, how is your investigation going?"

Yuya looked at the three dishes on the table and confirmed again: "Are you sure these three are what they ordered? There is no mistake."

Miyano Shiho was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "These three are definitely correct. In addition, the two men who had curry rice and salt ramen ordered cake and coffee before eating; the man who ordered mapo tofu originally ordered fruit as a dessert, but suddenly cancelled it."

"I see." Yuya's lips curled up slightly.

At the same time, Conan also smiled as if he had seen through the truth.

Masumi Sera, who had been observing Conan, also smiled - it seemed that the outcome had been decided.

···

On the other hand, the results of the investigation into the victim’s identity also came out.

A temporary worker at a construction company in Saitama Prefecture, his name is Shibiya Nobutake.

Last month, a construction company president was poisoned in Saitama Prefecture. Shibiya Nobutake was the first person to discover the case. The poison that killed the president was the same as this time, with candy balls coated with cyanate-based poison.

Apart from the cash in the safe being stolen, there were no other signs of disorder at the scene.

The president has a habit of eating candy balls, and he hides in the room at noon to count the money in the safe. This is something all employees in the company know.

On the day the president was killed, he was scheduled to meet a new employee.

Yuya analyzed, "It seems that the murderer of the two cases may be the same person. Since he was Mr. Shibiya's childhood sweetheart, he should have introduced him to the president. At the same time, he learned about the president's habits from Mr. Shibiya, and he may have used this to kill people."

"So, is Mr. Shibiya, who was poisoned this time, really from the Kansai region?"

Takagi looked at his notebook and said, "Yes, his colleagues said that they often heard him say that he was a native of Osaka."

Just then, Youya heard Hattori Heiji shouting.

Turning around, he found Hattori Heiji shouting something next to the three people. He already knew that the murderer was one of them who was disguised as a Kansai person, and as a Kansai person, he should admit it openly.

Youya almost laughed out loud. No matter where the person came from, it was impossible for him to come forward and admit that he was the murderer, right?

He smiled and said to Inspector Megure, "Inspector, please gather everyone together. I already know who the murderer is."

Inspector Megure was extremely surprised and his voice became louder: "Brother Kamiya, do you know who the murderer is?"

Almost at the same time, Conan shouted loudly: "What, Shinichi-nii, you already know who the murderer is? Okay, I will tell everyone your reasoning now."

Hattori Heiji looked at Conan, then at Yuya, and let out a surprised "Huh?"

Sera Masumi walked up to Conan, bent down and asked, "What did Kudo just say to you?"

Conan explained: "Brother Shinichi said that although the three uncles in question all said they were from Tokyo, one of them concealed the fact that he was from Kansai, and that person was the murderer."

Inspector Megure looked at Yuya, who nodded: "Yes, there is a person who is pretending to be a native Tokyoite."

Inspector Megure exclaimed: "As expected of you, Brother Kamiya and Brother Kudo!"

Conan rolled his eyes in dissatisfaction: I was the one who said it first, why do you put me behind Yuya?

Hattori Heiji asked dissatisfiedly: "Hey, wait a minute, you two are obviously from Tokyo, how do you know about our Kansai affairs?"

His reasoning was clearly one step ahead of the other two, so why were they the first to know who the murderer was?

Yuya smiled and said, "Since there are habits of people in Kansai that only Hattori can discover, there are also habits that we in Tokyo know. It's the same principle."

Conan also said: "Yes, yes, that's what Shinichi said," he suddenly showed an extremely proud and obscene smile, "He said that this way he can hit a comeback home run!"

Veins suddenly popped out on Hattori Heiji's forehead, and he gritted his teeth and cursed inwardly: This guy, he clearly doesn't understand baseball terminology, yet he dares to talk nonsense!

Masumi Sera said with interest, "Since Kamiya-san and Kudo-san both know who the murderer is, then... who will make the first deduction?"

Yuya and Conan couldn't help but look at each other, feeling a little troubled.

"Why don't we play rock-paper-scissors? Whoever wins gets to reason first." Mao Lilan suggested.

Inspector Megure lowered his eyes and said: Hey, hey, hey, this is a serious case, why are you treating it like a game? Can you be more serious?

"In that case, let's play rock-paper-scissors." Yuya smiled and said to Conan, "Then my next choice is scissors!"

Conan narrowed his eyes. Damn Yuya, he was trying to use this psychological tactic again, right?

The time when Yuu was in the Twin Towers, he used this trick to win the sports car from Kogoro Mori. Do you want to use the same trick to win the priority of reasoning from me this time?

impossible!

The same trick won't work on the famous detective!

"Come on," Conan retracted his hand, and after reasoning in his mind, he shouted, "Bag, scissors, hammer!"

"Sorry, I won." Youya proudly shook two fingers, making a scissors gesture, "I told you I was going to use scissors, why didn't you believe me?"

He smiled smugly. When dealing with smarter people, the more simple and unpretentious the moves, the better the effect will be.

Conan's entire body turned grey - he stared blankly at his hands, which were in the shape of cloth.

Damn, this guy tricked me again.
