Famous Detective Conan: Eating and Waiting To Die - Chapter 80

A passerby walked up to Oto in annoyance, “Hey, Oto, what are you doing? Why didn’t you give him the final blow.” The passerby who pushed Oto a few times found that Oto was sitting on the machine a bit wrong Son, “Oto! Oto!”

As a result, Oto’s upper body drooped softly while leaning on the machine. . . . . . “

Ah~~~~~~” Passerby A screamed in horror~~~

Conan heard the call of the passerby and hurried over, “He is already dead! Sister Xiao Lan, hurry up and call the police, this person is already dead…”

Twenty minutes later

Officer Mumu led the team to this video game city, “Xiao Lan, did you report the case just now?”

“Well, Officer Mumu, that person died suddenly while playing a game.”

“What?” Mu Mu asked with disbelief, “Died while playing a game?”

“Yes, during the duel, we all saw it on the big screen just now. When he was about to win, he suddenly stopped attacking, and then found out that he was dead…”

After listening to Xiaolan’s confession, Megumi turned around, “Takagi, have you confirmed the identity of the deceased?”

“Yes,” Takagi took out the police notes, “The deceased’s name was Oto, 21 years old, without a job. After investigation, most people said that he had a bad character and a very poor popularity. He usually played games in this amusement center.”

“Well… such a bad comment, it seems that he must have a lot of old enemies here~”

“Hey, Xiaolan, do you know this bearded policeman?” Judy cast a curious glance.

“Well, he’s my dad’s former colleague.”

Hearing someone talking about her, Mumu looked back and Xiaolan hurriedly introduced, “Officer Mumu, this lady is our school’s English teacher.”

“Oh~” Seeing that the other party was a foreigner, Megumi nodded politely to the teacher, then turned to Takagi and said, “All in all, Officer Takagi, the focus of the investigation now is that this person would die in the amusement center like this. .”

“Yes, according to the guests who were nearby at the time, at the time of the incident, no suspicious figures were found in this amusement park, wandering near the victim, and the guests around Mr. Oto also said that he had not eaten during the fight. Anything, so I think the possibility of suicide should be ruled out.”

After listening to Takagi’s report, Megumi walked over to Oto’s corpse, looked at the strangely dressed corpse, and said curiously, “But why is he dressed so strangely, it’s like he’s in a science fiction movie.”

“Because this is a virtual combat game console,” a waiter said as he approached Mumu, “As long as the player is participating in the fighting, when the characters on the screen are hit, the real body will also suffer the same damage. “

“What? Does it hurt in reality?” Megumi, who was not very interested in high technology, seemed a little surprised.

“Yes, for example, if the leg of the character on the screen is attacked, the leg of the character in reality will also feel the attack, and it feels like a real blow.”

“No, is it because the blow was too strong?” Mu Mu pinched his chin suspiciously.

“This police officer, this is absolutely impossible. Although the player will be hit, it is only a slight vibration at best, and the intensity is similar to the vibration of a mobile phone. This kind of vibration is impossible to kill.”

Looking at the person who was chewing on Bubble Hall and suddenly interjected, Mu Mu asked, “Then who are you?”

“My name is Gao Bao, the player who was still playing against this guy just before he kicked his legs. I don’t want to be treated as a murderer because of this.”

“And to be honest, it should be me who was beaten more badly. I only attacked him two or three times in the whole game, and the rest of the time I only chewed gum, I was angry when I said it. .”

“Little Hitomi,” Conan asked, looking at Mouri Hitomi who was eating Haagen-Dazs with relish, “Have you found anything?”

Hitomi Maori smiled, and her gaze passed over that Judy intentionally or unintentionally, “I don’t know, that kind of **** will die if he dies, and the earth will not stop turning because of his death.”

Conan shook his head helplessly, then turned his face straight, “Little Tong, I’m telling you seriously… My detective intuition tells me that you must know something!!”

“Hey~ hey~ my great detective,” Hitomi Mauri waved her hand to express her defeat, so she whispered beside Conan’s ear, “That Oto, my heart stopped when I went to buy Haagen-Dazs. beat~”

“What?” Conan looked surprised, “How is this possible?”

“That’s right,” Mao Litong said with a wide smile, “that’s why I’m curious. Could it be that his noble and unyielding soul has been fighting against that Mr. Gao Bao?”

“Cut~~” With a look of contempt at Hitomi Mori, Conan came to check on Oto’s body, “Since he was already dead at that time, it is impossible for characters to fight, but people think that it is Oto who is fighting, in fact. “…” The corner of Conan’s mouth twitched, “Actually, it was Gao Bao who fought, so the only one who killed Oto was Gao Bao, and he used the inertial psychology of people when they choose combat roles, but unfortunately there is no evidence yet…”

After learning about everyone’s confessions, Mu Mu frowned, “It seems that the cause of this person’s death is really a mystery.”

“Yeah,” Takagi also nodded, “There is obviously no trauma on the deceased’s body.”

“Could it be that he died from poisoning?” Conan, who was examining the body, raised his head and said. “I think this uncle died of suffocation, but there is no strangulation on his neck, so don’t you think he may have died of poisoning?”

Takagi hugged Conan embarrassedly and brought him to Mumu, “Don’t mess with the body, Conan…” Looking at Gaomu’s helpless expression, Mumu didn’t care, he knew this kid The reasoning is also great.

“But Conan, you have to know that this uncle died suddenly during the game. Witnesses pointed out that he didn’t eat anything during the fight. If he drank someone’s medicine at the beginning, his face would be natural. It’s impossible to get better, and others should clearly see his discomfort.” Having said that, Mu Mu turned his head and asked, “Xiao Lan, have you noticed that his body is showing discomfort? ?”

“This… I didn’t notice it.”

“Also, he was in good spirits when he defeated Xiaolan. Later, after being defeated by Xiaotong, he came to Xiaolan to apologize to us.” After listening to Xiaolan and Yuanzi’s words, his eyes dimmed. Nodding, “That’s what should happen after that.”

“Officer Mumu, it’s also possible that someone injected him with a labor pain syringe.”

“Hahahaha,” Mu Mu laughed a few times when he heard Conan’s words, “If someone really did this, he would definitely say something like “what are you doing?” will notice.”

“However, Officer Mumu, this is a video game center. When it’s so quiet now, because of the incident, all the machines are turned off. Under normal circumstances, even if you speak loudly, people who concentrate on playing games will not pay attention. what.”

“Like just now, Xiaotong said that he was going to buy Haagen-Dazs, but I didn’t hear it clearly. It was only when he shouted loudly that I realized it. So, this uncle, his hands and feet are tied in On this game console, you can’t move as you want, and even if you get stabbed with a needle by the murderer, it won’t cause other people’s reactions.”

“It turns out that, when the victim is unprepared, even if he shouts, it will be covered by other voices in the game center, and most of the people’s attention was watching the match, even if someone wanted to poison him. It’s possible!!” Having said that, Mu Mu said to the coroner, “Send this body to a judicial autopsy, and then determine the cause of his death first.”

“Okay, everyone, now we have to filter out the possible suspects first,” Megumi stood in front of everyone and was about to give an order, but was interrupted by Takagi, “However, Officer Megumi, the guests currently present are approaching 30 people, it’s too difficult to find possible suspects,” Takagi scratched his head helplessly.

“Isn’t there a monitor there? Just look at that and you should know who has approached the victim.” Hitomi Mori pointed to the monitor hanging on the ceiling.

“Well, this waiter, do your monitors keep today’s video footage?” Takagi walked to the waiter and asked.

“This… yes… yes, let me take you to the monitoring room…”

“Okay, Takagi, you’re here, don’t let people leave the video game center, we’ll talk about it when we identify the suspect.”

“Yes, Officer Mumu!!”

“Then, officers, please come with me.” Said, the waiter led everyone to the monitoring room.

“Crack~kick~” Conan heard a strange sound, “Strange, what kind of sound is this? It’s a bit like a metal knocking or rubbing sound, what could it be?”

“Come on, Conan,” Hitomi Mori said to Conan who was still in a daze not far away.

“Oh,” Conan ran over, “Hey, Hitomi, did you hear a creaking sound just now? It’s a bit like a metal knocking or rubbing sound.”

Mao Litong glanced at it, and said, “It’s under that waiter’s feet. Who knows what kind of messy things are sticking and creaky when walking. Okay, let’s go.” He said with a contemplative face. Conan ran to the monitoring room~www.mtlnovel.com~ After watching the video, Mumu contacted Takagi with the walkie-talkie, “Bring all the suspects to the monitoring room, and then played the video again from the beginning.”

“Hi”

“Everyone, when you appear on the screen, please explain what you were doing at the time.” Mumu stood in front of the suspects, pointed to the CCTV and said, “Then from the first Xiaolan, you let’s start.”

“Hey! Officer Mumu, this is the time,” Sonoko pointed at the screen, “After we beat him, we wanted to leave here, so he took our place.”

“This should be Mr. Dejima,” Megumi pointed at the waiter in the picture, “What were you doing?”

“That’s the coin withdrawal time of the video game hall. At that time, I just went to clean up the game coins that I put into the game machine.”

“Well,” Nodding Megumi continued to play the screen, “This is Mr. Kobao, you seem to be saying something to Mr. Oto, what did you say?”

“Oh, I just went to find out what fighting strategy he wanted to use before the duel. In the end, it was useless.” Gao Bao said helplessly.

“And here, what did you pick up from the ground?” Looking at Gao Bao who was bending over not far behind Oto, Mumu asked again.

“I accidentally dropped the lighter, I just picked up a lighter.”

Seeing this, Conan has already deduced almost, “The murderer is this Gaobao, and I can see through his methods, but the evidence… The murder weapon should be something like a needle, but there is no such thing on the floor… “

“Wait…” Thinking of this, Conan suddenly recalled Gao Bao’s bending over. . .
