Chapter 68: Kogoro Mori's Strongest Form

"hiss~"

"Sigh~"

Everyone gasped.

This butler is too sincere.

"So President Yonekura discovered the scandal between his wife and you, and in despair he killed Mrs. Yonekura, and then committed suicide?" Kogoro Mori said, touching his chin.

"Then why didn't he kill you?" Tanigawa asked puzzledly.

It's not normal that he decided to commit suicide but only killed his cheating wife and not the man she had an affair with.

"Also, the will also states that the property will be handed over to you. Is President Yonekura so generous?" Kanamaru Takatake announced the will in the bag to everyone.

Not only did he not pursue the person his wife had an affair with, he also generously left his property to him. Isn't President Yonekura's behavior too difficult to understand?
Everyone looked at the butler, as if they were certain that he was the murderer.

But the housekeeper calmly began to explain: "The president only knew that Mrs. Yonekura had an affair, but he didn't know that the person she had an affair with was me. Moreover, I am the president's nephew, and I grew up in the Yonekura family. Compared to that useless Yonekura Shigemasa, leaving the property to me will not ruin the Yonekura family."

Seeing that everyone was still suspicious of him, he continued, "You can't just go after me because I have the motive, the ability, and the beneficiary. Solving a case depends on evidence."

Kanamaru Takatake originally wanted to hastily close the case as suicide, but the descendants of the Ooka family, a group of chaebols, were present at the scene, and he could not show incompetence and dereliction of duty in front of them!

"Mr. Mori, I heard that you are the best detective in Tokyo, so I'm entrusting the case to you!" said Kanamaru Takatake, patting Kogoro Mori on the shoulder.

"Don't worry!" Kogoro Mori said complacently.

Although he has no idea now, after he falls asleep, his second personality will appear and solve the case neatly.

"Mr. Policeman, that young man has a gun, why don't you investigate him?" the butler said to Kanamaru Takatake.

Kanemaru Takatake looked in the direction of the butler's hand and saw Tanigawa put the pistol on his waist.

Tanigawa smiled at Kanamaru Takatake, and Kanamaru Takatake smiled back.

"Mr. Tanigawa just took a few guns for self-defense. What's there to investigate?" Kanamaru Takatake yelled at the butler.

Back when Kanemaru Takatake had just started working at the Metropolitan Police Department, his boss "invited" the young Tanigawa to the department as a guest. Then his boss and his boss's boss were all demoted for dereliction of duty.

"You are the biggest suspect in this case. I will keep an eye on you!" Kanamaru Takatake stared at the butler impartially.

Tanigawa yawned out of boredom, held Xiao Ai in his arms, and deliberately spoke to Xiao Lan as a brother, "Xiao Lan, don't jump around like Conan at a murder scene. It's very dangerous."

Xiaolan came out of her lost and angry mood, pulled Conan out of the corner and hit him with a headbutt.

"Sister Xiaolan, what are you doing?" Conan looked at Xiaolan with dissatisfaction.

Xiaolan was even more dissatisfied than Conan, and she scolded him with a legitimate reason: "Can't you learn from Ai? Look how well behaved she is?"

Conan curled his lips and asked, "Why should I learn from a little girl?"

Conan, who had been quiet for a while, sneaked away again when Xiaolan was not paying attention to him.

If he doesn't solve the case, can he rely on Uncle Maori, that confused detective?
But it seems that Tanigawa is also a very good detective.

"Tanigawa, do you have any clues?" Conan asked while pulling off Tanigawa's clothes.

"That butler is the murderer. You'll know if you follow him." After saying this, Tanigawa handed a small notebook to Conan.

Conan casually flipped through the small notebook and was instantly stunned by the contents.

It describes the complicated family relationships of the Yonekura family, as well as the housekeeper's methods and motives for murder.

"Is this true?" Conan asked in a low voice.

"Of course it's true." Conan was once again amazed by Tanigawa. He was able to deduce so many things in such a short time. This was not common sense, and even more unscientific!

"Tanigawa, why are you reasoning so quickly?"

"Because there is a system, and I bought it from the system." Tanigawa never lies.

System? What is that?
Conan touched his head. Is Tanigawa sick again?

"Do you know how much I spent without this thing?" Tanigawa asked, leaning down.

"How much?" Conan stupidly cooperated with Tanigawa who was "sick".

Tanigawa smiled and took off Conan's tie, "It's a lot, I'll use your bow tie to pay for it."

Looking at Tanigawa's smiling face, Conan sighed.

Tanigawa was really having an attack again. Every time he had an attack, he liked to snatch my bow tie and anesthesia watch. He also snatched my shoes once, but after being irritated by the smell, he never touched his shoes again.

In order to prevent his equipment from being suddenly taken away by Tanigawa, Conan brought a lot of spare equipment.

Putting on a spare bow tie, Conan slipped out of the study to look for evidence.

"The murderer must be you, right, Shigemasa Yonekura? You must have killed them because you were dissatisfied with your father marrying a stepmother who was three years younger than you."

Kogoro Mouri has already begun to randomly identify the murderer.

"How could I kill someone for something like this?" said Shigemasa Yonekura, raising his hands.

"Indeed, this reason is too far-fetched." The butler spoke for Shigemasa Yonekura at this time.

Before Shigemasa Yonekura could thank him, he heard the butler continue, "I remember that Madam Yonekura was Shigemasa's first love. I wonder if she is dissatisfied with the president stealing her love."

"hiss~"

"Sigh~"

There was another gasp.

"The families of these chaebols are so messed up. I don't understand or respect them." Tanigawa shook his head.

Ooka Hongye looked at Tanigawa with dissatisfaction, "How dare you say that? It's inappropriate to single me out, isn't it?"

Conan returned to the study and just heard Kogoro Mouri's nonsense.

Uncle Maori is really something. He has been studying with me for such a long time, but his reasoning ability has not improved at all.

"Whoosh~"

The anesthetic injection was administered and Kogoro Mouri sat on the chair.

"It appears, the strongest form of Kogoro Mouri - 'Sleeping Kogoro'." Tanigawa explained on the side.

The corners of Ai's mouth twitched while being held in his arms. There was an elementary school student running behind Kogoro Mouri, didn't any of you notice it?

Xiao Ai pulled Tanigawa's collar and asked in a low voice: "Tanigawa, where is Conan?"

"Who knows, maybe he went to the bathroom."

"Then look behind Kogoro Mouri's chair." said Ai.

"Nothing." Tanigawa pretended to be dumb.

Xiao Ai doesn’t understand, the elementary school student’s legs are exposed!
