Chapter 944 There are only two suspects this time?
Yuya nodded slightly, looked at Kitao Liuhai and asked, "So, after you received the call, you went to the living room to look for your watch?"
Kitao Liuhai thought for a moment and said, "Because this is a high-rise building, the signal is not very good, so I went to the balcony to answer the phone first, and then went to look for the watch.
But I couldn't find it, so I wanted to ask Kazuka if she had seen the watch, but I didn't expect to find it in the bathroom... You all know what happened next."
Yuya pondered for a moment, and suddenly asked: "In other words, there was quite a while between the time you received the call and the time you found Xiaolan and the others in the bathroom and fell into a coma?"
Kitao Liuhai was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "Yes, because it took a long time to find the watch..."
Yuya nodded slightly and looked at Mao Lilan again: "Xiaolan, what happened to you at that time?"
Mao Lilan recalled carefully for a while, and then said: "After I separated from Miss Liu Hai, I went to another direction to look for Miss He Xiang. Because I was not familiar with the rooms here, I searched room by room.
And because Miss Liu Hai said that Miss Kazuka would sleep in strange places after getting drunk, I even looked in the closet..."
Yuya:... Even if I hear this again, I still find it weird. No matter how weird it is, you wouldn't sleep in the closet, right?
"Speaking of this," Settsu Takeya suddenly spoke up, "Waka does behave like this when she's drunk. I still remember that she once came back drunk and slept on the balcony."
Mitsuo Kaga next to him echoed: "Yes, I have heard about this matter too."
Settsu Kenya recalled: "After she woke up, she called me and said that she was awake because of the wind, but she fell asleep again after a while. I even heard her snoring."
Perhaps it was Settsu Ken'ya's words that brought back memories, and Kitao Ruimi also mentioned that Kazuka once slept under the bed.
"But this time," Yokomizo Sango suddenly interrupted everyone's recollections, "this time he didn't sleep under the bed or on the balcony, but became a corpse on the bathroom floor."
Settsu Kenya and the other two immediately showed sad expressions.
Yokogami Sango said coldly: "And the person who caused her to suffer this misfortune must be one of you two who has the spare key!"
“Huh?!” Settsu Takeya and Kaga Mitsuaki’s faces suddenly changed. The latter hurriedly explained, “Wait a minute! Settsu is her ex-boyfriend so he has the key here, but I don’t!”
Yokogo Sango retorted, "I'm afraid you deliberately drank until this morning and took the key while the deceased was asleep. If you just put the key somewhere when you went upstairs, wouldn't you be able to get away with it?"
He approached Kaga Mitsuo and said with a sneer, "Maybe you have been in this room until the gathering!"
Kaga Mitsuo's face turned pale. He found that what Yokomizo Sango said was indeed possible. But he immediately thought of something and looked at Kitao Rumi: "Rumi also has the key. She lived here with Kazuka before Kazuka started dating Settsu."
Kitao Liuhai quickly explained: "I returned the key to her when I left, okay!"
"I see," Yokomizo Sango did not completely believe Kitao Ruikai's words, and pinched his chin as he analyzed, "Since it is possible that the three of you have the key, that means that all three of you have a way to enter this room and commit the crime?"
"No," at this time, Sera Masumi suddenly refuted Yokomizo Sango's words, and everyone turned their eyes to her.
Masumi Sera put his hands in his pockets and said slowly: "The only two people who killed Kazuka before Xiaolan found out were Mr. Settsu and Mr. Kaga!"
Yuya looked at Sera Masumi with great interest. It seemed that she knew who the murderer was. Could it be that she found some key clues or evidence?
Henggou Chanwu frowned and looked at him unkindly. Where did this little devil come from? But he still patiently asked, "What do you mean?"
Sera Masumi smiled and said confidently, “Don’t mention Mr. Kaga, he arrived at the hall just as Xiaolan and Ms. Liu Hai were preparing to go upstairs.
And thirty minutes before he came, Mr. Settsu went to the restroom, right?"
"If the two of them had the key in advance, they could easily get to this room through the stairwell where there is no surveillance camera."
"And Ms. Liu Hai had been with me before coming here, and she had not left the hall before arriving at Ms. Kazuka's room, so she had no time to commit the crime."
Kaga Mitsuaki asked in surprise: "You and Liu Hai are together?"
Settsu Kenya looked at the tomboy-looking girl who suddenly appeared with displeasure and asked, "Who are you?"
"I'm a detective," Masumi Sera said with a smile, "Miss Liu Hai hired me."
"Huh?" Upon hearing Sera Masumi reveal the detective's identity, not only Settsu Takeya and Kaga Mitsuaki, but even Yokomizo Sango showed surprised expressions.
Yokomizo Sango glared at Youya. It was already annoying enough to have a detective here, so why did another one appear?
Youye touched his nose innocently and said, this is none of my business.
If Inspector Megure was here, he would definitely say, "No wonder a murder happened, it's because of you two guys!"
After hearing Sera Masumi's identity, Settsu Kenya's face changed and he asked Kitao Rumi: "Rumi, what's going on?"
Even though Yuya and Conan usually help the police solve cases and are given the title of famous detectives, there are actually only a few detectives in Tokyo or even in the whole of Neon, and there are not enough cases for them to solve.
Most detectives take on commissions such as finding objects, finding people, and investigating scandals.
So, when he heard that Kitao Ruimi knew the detective, Settsu Kenya couldn't help but question her.
Kitao Liuhai also said with a guilty conscience: "Because I heard that you, Kenya, and Kazuka are still in contact, so I..."
Kitao Rumi also apologized repeatedly. Settsu Kenya opened his mouth but said nothing in the end - it seems that some of the rumors are not all false, he probably felt guilty.
"In short," Yokomizo Sango showed no interest in their topic. He pushed Sera Masumi aside by the shoulder, then walked directly in front of Settsu Kenya and Kaga Mitsuaki and said coldly, "The current situation still shows that the suspect must be one of you two!"
The two were forced to retreat again and again, but they didn't know how to defend themselves.
Masumi Sera observed the reactions of the two and secretly glanced at Kitao Liuhai, thinking to himself: It does seem to be the case on the surface, but there is actually another possibility...
At the same time, Youya, who had been silent, frowned slightly. For some reason, he had a bad feeling.
