Chapter 388 Princess Camellia

Conan continued: "The murderer threw her body into the well. It didn't seem like he was destroying the body, but rather..."

"warn."

Before Conan could finish his words, Ze Yu blurted out the last two words.

"..." Conan was silent for a while, looking at Ze Yu who was stealing the show in silence.

Please, could you please stop stealing my show?

I am the detective!

Could you please give me some face?
Conan felt very aggrieved when he thought about how he had not been in the limelight in recent times and was always overshadowed by the duo of Sawaha and Haibara Ai.

Ze Yu ignored Conan's melancholy look and pretended not to see it.

Just a 'Kudo Shinji', Ze Yu wouldn't care about his resistance and dissatisfaction.

No, it should be 'Kudo Furuichi'.

Ze Yu looked at the body on the ground and said casually: "Killing people for property is a common thing, but throwing the body into the well is a bit too much."

In fact, Sawaha knew that Machiko's death was entirely her own fault.

Machiko wanted to kill someone, but was killed instead. She couldn't blame anyone but herself for not having good eyesight and choosing the wrong target.

Machiko died, but Sawaha didn't care.

But in any case, the murderer threw the body into the well after killing someone, which was a bit too much and obviously an insult to people.

Ze Yu doesn't like this approach.

"Second mother was killed... Who is the murderer?" Yixing suppressed his fear and shock and whispered to himself, "Was it one of us?"

After all, several members of the Yabuuchi family were fighting for the property, and at this time, someone died, which meant that others could get more money.

That is to say...

Except for Yukiko and the other two, and Carlos, an outsider, every member of the Yabuuchi family present is a suspect and could be the murderer.

Of course, Carlos is the nephew of the deceased Yabuuchi family head, and according to the will, he can also get a share of the money.

Therefore, Carlos is also a suspect.

However, except for Ze Yu and Yifang, no one present knew Carlos's true identity. They only thought that he was the bodyguard that Yifang brought from Brazil.

It is precisely because of this that when everyone is thinking about who the murderer is, they naturally will not consider Carlos, but will directly rule him out.

Carlos is not a member of the Yabuuchi family, so he won't gain any benefit even if he kills Machiko.

and many more……

Xiuhe frowned, his eyes flashed, as if he thought of something.

Even if Carlos is not a member of the Yabuuchi family and cannot get a share of the property, he is still a suspect in the crime.

After all, he is Yoshifusa's bodyguard. If Yoshifusa wants to kill Machiko, he may let Carlos do it for him.

Therefore, Carlos' suspicion cannot be ruled out, but his suspicion should be placed on Yifang.

Hidekazu's eyes revealed deep suspicion when he looked at everyone present. Except for Yukiko and the other two, everyone else was within his range of suspicion.

Even his wife Hiromi is the same. Who knows, was Machiko killed by Hiromi? It is possible.

"Hiromi, your stepmother called you before, right?" Yukiko asked, touching her chin.

"Yeah." Hiromi nodded, with sadness in her eyes: "It was probably around nine o'clock. Second Mom died at least after nine o'clock."

They have lived together for such a long time, and even though Hiromi doesn't like this second mother very much, they have established a deep relationship after spending so much time together.

At this time, Machiko died, and Hiromi was a little sad, and even felt a sense of grief for the other party.

Machiko is dead, who will be next?

Could it be me?
Thinking of this, Hiromi couldn't help but tremble.

"Where were you when she called you?" Yukiko frowned and slightly entered the detective state. She ignored her best friend's fear and just asked.

Influenced by her husband and son, Yukiko also possesses good observation skills and sharp thinking. She can be considered a half-famous detective, much better than the average detective.

Like Conan, once she enters the detective state, she will subconsciously ignore the feelings of those around her.

For example, Hiromi's fear was ignored by Yukiko, which meant that Yukiko started to be serious.

"Second mom called from the restaurant in front of the station." Hiromi replied.

"In that case..." Yukiko thought for a while and asked, "I entered the bathroom just now before ten o'clock. Did anyone leave the room while I was taking a shower?"

"No."

"Then it is impossible for anyone present to have committed the crime. It would take at least an hour to get here from the hotel in front of the station, no matter how fast you try..."

Yukiko and Hiromi asked and answered each other.

Ze Yu yawned out of boredom, with no intention of interrupting, and just watched Yukiko's performance quietly.

As soon as Yukiko and Hiromi finished their discussion, the others started shouting, making a mess.

Some people believe that the murderer who killed Machiko was the mysterious man wearing sunglasses just now.

They suspected Yusaku, and even Yukiko seemed to have some doubts.

Ze Yu felt a little sympathetic towards that kid Yusaku.

There's nothing I can do about it. Who asked him to be mysterious?

Ze Yu suddenly said: "Conan, you can check this old lady's pocket."

"Well, I would do it even if you didn't tell me." Conan said, and took out a pink 'Princess Camellia' from Machiko's pocket.

Sawaha knew the existence of this flower, but he didn't want to touch the corpse. Conan was very interested in the corpse, so Sawaha asked him to do it instead.

Anyway, Conan seemed to be very happy about it.

"How is it possible... This is a Princess Camellia!" Hiromi said in horror: "This was my mother's favorite flower when she was alive. She accidentally fell into the well while picking flowers. When she was fished out, she was still holding a Princess Camellia in her hand..."

"In other words, Second Mother was killed and her body thrown into the well, and someone placed a Princess Camellia in her pocket. Was this a deliberate revenge?" Yixing said in disbelief, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

"Someone is seeking revenge for mom? But mom's death was a complete accident. No one wanted to harm her. She just accidentally missed a step. We are very sorry!"

Yixing was a little scared and sweating. He couldn't help but mutter to himself, "Is the murderer crazy? He actually killed my second mother. Is he warning us?"
