Chapter 131: The Sold Famous Knife
May 19, Sunday, evening, at Maru Fu House.
Since Mrs. Rice had gone to the treasury and hadn't come back, everyone left the reception room and waited near the tree-lined aisle in front of the reception room. There are two rows of trees on both sides of the aisle, so when Mr. Suwa came, Moori would be surprised. After coming out, Mao Li smoked under a tree. A few trees away, Lan and Conan looked at the flowers and plants behind the tree with the lights on. Mr. Suwa was standing under a tree opposite Mori, the Megure Police Department and a forensic officer with evidence stood in the aisle between Mori and Mr. Suwa, and Mr. Akutsu and Dr. Hatano stood at the sight. Not far behind Mu Police Department.
Looking at Mr. Suwa's back, Conan, who had come over to eavesdrop long ago, asked, "Hey, why do I feel that he is different?"
"He's relieved," Yamazaki said, "and now his mind is settled."
Conan asked: "How do you know that the death message was left during the battle?"
Seeing Mr. Suwa saluting, Yamazaki smiled and said, "You'll know later." He walked towards Maori, and Conan followed.
Mr. Suwa walked up to Mori, bowed ninety degrees and said, "Thank you very much."
"Uh, Mr. Suwa," Maori asked hastily, "You are..."
As Mr. Suwa stepped back, he said loudly, "However, I don't agree with what you said." Retreating to the Megure Police Department and a forensic officer standing in the middle of the road, Mr. Suwa said loudly, "So , please advise me again." As he said, he snatched the evidence from the forensics officer, and rushed towards Maori with the samurai sword that Mr. Marufu had held backwards.
"Ah?" Mouri immediately frightened the smoke out of his mouth, and then his eyes lit up, knowing that Mr. Suwa had already started to draw his sword, and immediately jumped back. But he forgot that there was a tree behind him, so he hit the tree and bounced back, but just missed the first throat-cutting and horizontal slashing. So he got close to Mr. Suwa's body, and without thinking about it, he grabbed Mr. Suwa's right wrist and right arm, and took advantage of the inertia of Mr. Suwa's forward rush, and threw Mr. Suwa onto the tree with an over-the-shoulder throw. And easily under his knife.
"No, no knife!" Mr. Suwa murmured while leaning against the tree trunk.
Surprised by Maori's neatness, Yamazaki, who had already walked to the tree, thought to himself that not all empty-handed katana grabs are no-dao picks, but it's not wrong to call all empty-handed katana grabs. However, this way of acting, recalling the text that mentioned the ancestors of the Suwa family, I sighed secretly, Yuji Suwa, all the people in the Suwa family are like this, huh? straight?
Seeing Mr. Suwa snatching the knife, Conan, who just shouted "Be careful!", realized that the matter was over, and immediately ran a few steps to Mouri's side, and asked nervously, "Uncle Mouri?"
Bending over and gasping for breath, Mao Li shouted with palpitations: "What do you want?"
"Brother Maoli!" Mumu Police Department yelled and ran over, "Are you okay?"
"Father!" Lan ran to Mao Li's side in panic.
"In a blink of an eye... you are indeed the famous detective Mori Kogoro." Mr. Suwa stood up and said, then bowed ninety degrees again and said, "Thank you for your guidance." Then he straightened up and said seriously, " I surrender myself."
"Surrender yourself?" Maori shouted angrily, "Is this surrender?"
"Brother Maoli!" Looking at Maoli who straightened his waist, Mumu Police Department exclaimed.
"Father!" Pointing at Maori's throat, Lan shouted in horror, "You, you..."
Conan exclaimed, "Uncle Maori,
your throat..."
"Huh?" Maori, who didn't feel anything, raised his hand to touch his throat, then put some wet fingers in front of his eyes, and shouted, "Blood!" Then he covered his throat and shouted, "Quick, hurry up and call the ambulance." car."
"I'll let the police car take you off." Megure police department said, and then took Maori to the door, followed by Lan, Yamazaki and Conan.
Seeing that Lan was about to cry in anxiety, Yamazaki ran to her side and laughed softly, "Don't worry, Uncle Mao Li is fine, just a little bit of skin."
"Really?" Ran asked.
"Go to the hospital and find out." Yamazaki said with a smile, "Don't worry, he doesn't look like something is wrong now."
Mao Li clutched his throat, hurriedly got into the police car, and then shouted: "Drive, drive fast."
Lan said: "Then take Conan with you." Then he rushed over.
While walking back, Conan asked, "Hey, what's going on?"
"Didn't see it?" Yamazaki replied: "It's because I said that he inherited fur, so I went to Uncle Maori for advice."
"I know that," Conan asked, "but I think he wants to kill Uncle Maori?"
Yamazaki said with a smile: "The swordsmanship used by Mr. Suwa Yuji is the same as that famous sword Kikuchiyo. It has been passed down from generation to generation in the Suwa family. It is an actual swordsmanship."
"Practical swordsmanship?" Conan asked, "You mean the kind with real swords without armor?" Then he asked in surprise, "You don't mean that the Suwa family's swordsmanship is the kind that specializes in swordsmanship?" A sword technique used to kill people, right?"
"Yes, so the death message can only be left by Mr. Marufu Jiro during the battle, and because Mr. Suwa Yuji's heart was disturbed, so there is a chance to stay." Yamazaki said, "Still Yes, it is precisely because this kind of swordsmanship is specially used to kill people, so in this era when there is no way to promote this kind of swordsmanship, Mr. Yuji Suwa is so embarrassed that he has to use the famous sword Kikuchiyo that has been passed down from generation to generation in his Suwa family, Come as collateral for borrowing money." Then sighed, "For swordsmen, this is a great tragedy."
Conan asked, "Are you a swordsman?"
"No." Yamazaki asked, "Why do you ask that?"
"That's good," Conan said, "Mr. Suwa's misfortune, isn't it the great fortune of ordinary people like us?"
"Maybe." Yamazaki said.
Back in the reception room, Police Department Megure asked sharply, "Mr. Suwa, what are you doing?"
Mr. Suwa said, "I'm asking Mori-san for kendo lessons."
"Please, ask for advice on kendo?" Thinking back on Mr. Suwa's words and deeds, Megure Police Department twitched his lips and said, "Okay, I'll talk about that later." Then asked, "What do you mean by surrendering yourself just now? Could it be Mr. Marufu?" ..."
"That's right," Mr. Suwa said, "Mr. Marufujiro was killed by me."
"What?" Startled, Mumu Police Department asked, "But, didn't you pay back the money?"
"Just as Mr. Mori said, Mr. Marufujiro sold my collateral," Mr. Suwa said, "The famous sword passed down from generation to generation in our Suwa family, Kikuchiyo."
"Sold?" Mumu Police Department asked, "Ms. Rice, you are in the vault..."
"I didn't find that knife in the vault," Mrs. Rice said. "I checked the records later, and my husband did sell it."
"He said, 'I can't sell it for much money, so the money I get from the sale can be regarded as the interest on my loan'." Mr. Suwa said again, "So, in a fit of anger, I beat him with a decorative knife. I got up, and later it was the same as what Mr. Mori said. I saw that Mr. Fujiro Marufu deliberately typed on the side of the cabinet, so that my hiragana appeared on the cabinet. I lost my mind in anger, and when I heard the phone ring, Already killed him."
"Then the call was from Mr. Akutsu?" Megure Police Department asked.
"Yes," Mr. Suwa replied, "so I put the blame on him."
The Mumu Police Department asked again: "So, the knife marks in the room and Mr. Rang Marufu holding the knife backwards are all done by you."
"Yes." Mr. Suwa asked, "Mrs. Rice, can you tell me who Kikuchiyo sold to and how much?"
"This, I don't know who to sell it to," Mrs. Rice said, "Also, that, that knife is really worthless. It is said that the workmanship is not good, and it is not a celebrity work, so it only sold for 500,000 yuan. Yuan."
"What?" Mr. Suwa asked in surprise, "What you said is true?"
"Cough..." Yamazaki was also choked.
"What's the problem?" Conan asked.
"Cough, cough." Yamazaki said with a smile, "I'll talk about it when I get back."
"Really," Mrs. Rice comforted, "so don't be too sad."
"By the way," Mumu Police Department said, "Ms. Rice, please do me a favor." Then he took her back to the reception room.
Not long after, the Megure Police Department came out and said: "It is indeed your name, Mr. Suwa, then please come with us."
Nodding, Mr. Suwa, who seemed to be hit hard, was very disappointed and left with the police without saying anything.
Megure Police Department took Yamazaki and Conan to the hospital to visit Maori.
When I saw Mori, he was eating ramen, beef ramen, at a big noodle restaurant next to the hospital.
Seeing that the police department of Megure arrived with Yamazaki and Conan, Maori even served a ramen for each of them, beef ramen, which frightened the three of them.
Lan explained that he was happy because the knife mark was three millimeters long and about one millimeter wide. As for the most important depth, well, if the distance of less than one millimeter is the depth, then it would be it.
Looking at the band-aid exposed by Mao Li when he sucked his face with his neck up, Mumu Police Department was speechless, praised Mao Li a few words, asked him to come tomorrow, and left after eating quickly.
Seeing that Maori accepted the praise, but was a little confused, Yamazaki and Conan discussed the case while eating.
"I knew it," Molly laughed. "I knew it was him when I saw him."
"That's why Uncle Maori targeted him, right?" Yamazaki said with a smile, "Uncle Maori, you are really amazing."
"Of course, I'm a detective Moori Kogoro," Moori laughed triumphantly, then raised his hand and said with a smile, "Well, please bring me a bottle..."
Slapping Mao Li's hand heavily, Lan said, "Dad, you can't drink now."
Rubbing his hands, Maori asked, "Yes, is it?" Then Kanlan became angry, and immediately changed his words, "Yes, yes."...
