Chapter 254 Suspended Game
On Saturday, November 30th, the school baseball field was repaired.
Maori found out that after Kaji-san left, there was an outsider in plain clothes who went up to find the baseball coach who had repaired the school, so he asked, "Who is that person? The reserve pitcher, why isn't he wearing a team uniform?"
"That person is Eto-san," Sonoko said, "He was originally the ace pitcher who repaired the school, but then Akaji-san abruptly pulled him from the ace pitcher's seat, and I heard that he is now on a break from school."
"So he's the former trump card?" Mao Li said angrily, "If you're out of school, you should rest at home, what are you doing here." Then, watching Eto-san leave, he smiled again, "That's good, that's how it should be .”
As Mori hoped, at the end of the eighth inning, the score became 8-8, Teidan High School tied with Xiuhao Gakuen.
At this time, the principal, the middle-aged woman, Kaji-san, and Eto-san appeared on the sidelines again, and Kaji-san and Eto-san each held a bucket of water in their hands.
"Student Aka!" Sonoko shouted happily, which naturally attracted the glaring glances of the students from Didan High School.
Conan said with a smile: "Send water, this is an encouragement."
Mei Daizi said: "Brother, let me encourage them too." Then she left. Yamazaki followed.
The team leader of Di Dan High School saw Mei Daizi approaching, the captain who happened to be there was startled, and immediately went up to greet her, "President, why are you here?"
"Although the front made me fall asleep, the back is not bad. Now that the principal over there is delivering water, we can't lose our momentum here," Mei Daizi said, "If you win this competition today , I will treat everyone to a big meal, and if they can win the regional championship in the future, the entire Invincible Baseball Club will reward each person with 100,000 yen, and the main players will be doubled."
"President, are you serious?" The captain was taken aback.
"Of course it's true," Mei Daizi asked with a smile, "how is it, isn't it good?"
"Well, president," the captain said in a low voice, "are you wrong? The vice president said that each person will be rewarded with 500,000 yen, and the main players will be paid separately."
"Ah?" Stunned for a moment, Mei Daizi smiled, "Then pretend I didn't say this. Anyway, if you win, I'll treat you to a big meal. Come on everyone." After finishing speaking, she left with Yamazaki.
The members of the Tedan High School baseball team laughed together.
"Did you all hear that? Since Her Majesty has prepared a royal feast, how can we go without presents." The captain laughed loudly, "Fuck them!"
"Fuck them!" The baseball team responded loudly.
When Yamazaki and Mei Daizi returned to their seats, the ninth inning began. However, a few minutes later, a player who repaired the academy suddenly left with his stomach in his arms, and then several players left one after another. Paused for a while.
"What's going on?" Maori smiled gloatingly, "Did you get sick from eating together at noon?"
Seeing that some of the people who repaired the academy's team area also ran away, Mei Daizi smiled and said: "It seems to be true. In this way, we can only find substitute players to play, and we are sure to win."
Sonoko, who was watching with a binoculars, suddenly said, "Huh? The principal and the coach who repaired the school seem to be arguing." Then he ran over there. Conan immediately followed, and Lan, Yamazaki, and Mei Daizi also followed.
Before the person arrived, I heard the coach shout, "Did you drug it here?"
"orchid,
Go call Uncle," Yamazaki said with a smile, "Maybe there will be business. "
The headmaster shouted, "How is this possible?"
The coach asked, "Then why did they all have a stomach ache after drinking the water you brought?"
"How do I know that?" the principal asked back.
"Cough." Maori came over and asked loudly, "I'm Kogoro Maori, what happened here?"
"Maori Detective!" The principal was taken aback, and then suppressed his surprise and asked the coach, "Let this matter be investigated by Maori Detective, do you have any objection?"
"No, that's it." The coach said, "Detective Maori, what happened is that after the team members drank the water brought by the principal, they all had stomachaches."
"So it's a poisoning incident?" Maori said to Yamazaki, "Call an ambulance and call the police."
"Understood." Yamazaki said and went to the side to make a phone call.
"Detective Maori, I don't need to shout for the ambulance and the police," the principal said.
"Are you guilty?" the coach asked back.
"I'm just afraid that things will become a big problem if it's not easy to clean up, and it will affect the reputation of the school," the principal said, "but since you say so, let's make a bet. If it turns out to be a water problem, of course I can't escape the law." Sanctions, but if it's not about the water, then please leave."
"I..." Before the coach finished speaking, Ah Kaji said first, "No, coach. You can't agree. In case, we won't have a coach after you leave."
A team member said: "Yes, coach, don't be fooled. I also drank the water, but I didn't feel any discomfort."
The other players present said one after another: "I drank it too."
"Part of it is okay, part of it is okay, what's going on?" Maori asked after thinking for a while, "Mr. Principal, where did this water come from?"
"This is mineral water. It was delivered this morning." The principal said, "One bucket is from the staff room, and the other bucket is from my office."
Maori asked, "So, it was opened?"
"Yes," said the headmaster, "it's all unsealed."
Mao Li asked: "So, which barrel did the team members who had the accident drink?"
"All of them," said the coach.
"Ah?" Maori was taken aback, what's going on? I couldn't think of an answer for a while, so I decided to change someone, so I asked the middle-aged woman, "Excuse me, are you?"
The middle-aged woman said: "I am Kenya Kaji's mother, and my name is Mie Kaji."
Mori asked: "So, you, Kaji-san and Eto-san, how did you end up with Mr. Principal?"
"I came here to talk to the principal about something." Kaji Mie said, "Then the principal asked me to find two people to help carry water, and then I found Kenya and Eto-san."
Mao Li asked: "Can I ask, what are you going to talk to the principal about?"
"Well," Mie Kaji hesitated for a moment, looked at classmate A Kaji and said, "I want to fulfill my husband's last wish and let Jian become a doctor, so I don't want him to continue playing baseball, and I don't want him to participate in this competition. After the competition, I wanted to go directly to the chairman for help, but I didn’t see him, so I went to the principal.”
Conan thought, so, Kaji suddenly saw Mie Kaji from where he was standing while throwing the ball, and then worried about his own future, so he suddenly lost his mind.
"Director?" Maori asked, "Is he here?"
"The chairman was going to come today, but he suddenly felt unwell and went to the hospital," said the principal.
Mori said to Kaji Mie: "So, you are trying to stop this game..."
"I haven't." Kaji Mie said, "I haven't even touched a bucket at all."
"Eto-san and I have always carried the bucket." Akaji-san said, "My mother never touched it."
"That's it," Maori asked the coach, "By the way, why did you insist on being the principal?"
"Because the chairman hates baseball, he thinks that if the baseball team becomes more and more prosperous, the students will definitely come to cheer for the team, so that there will be no time to prepare for the exam, which will affect the rate of admission." The coach said, "In fact, he originally planned to Whoever came to the school today to stop the game is going to fire me and the baseball team."
"What!" The baseball players and students of the Xiuhao Academy were all taken aback.
"So, Mr. Principal, you have sufficient motivation to stop this game." Maori said.
"I haven't done it," the principal yelled angrily, and then said, "Since you all said that there is something wrong with this water, I'll show you how to drink it." He took a cup and poured half a cup of water from a bucket , drank it slowly, then poured half a glass of water from another bucket, drank it one gulp, and then put the glass down heavily.
"Cup? By the way, it's a cup." Maori asked, "Who brought this drinking cup?"
The coach pointed to Eto-san and said, "It's him."
"It's you." Mao Li said with a smile, "So, because you were robbed of the position of chief pitcher by Mr. Kaji, and the coach didn't let you play, you couldn't think about it for a while and held a grudge..."
"I don't have one," Eto-san said hastily, "and aren't there many people who are okay? How do I know who gets which cup with so many people?"
"You just want them to lose," Mao Li laughed, "as long as some people have something to do, you put medicine in some cups, and then anyone can take it."
Conan asked: "It's strange, there are more than 20 people here, how come there are only eight cups?"
Yuanzi said: "This is another question, of course they share a cup."
A team member picked up a cup and said, "But, I drank it first."
"Uh," Maori said after being stunned for a moment, "the rim of the cup must have been painted on. When the police come, they will know when they check."
"I really don't have one." Eto-san said.
At this time, a member of the team ran over, and he followed to take care of those people earlier.
"How about seven of them?" asked the coach.
The team member said: "It's very bad. They are all having diarrhea. It seems that we can't play today."
The principal asked, "What did the school doctor say?"
The team member said: "The school doctor said there might be a problem with the water."
The coach said to the principal: "You should turn yourself in."
"I've already had it," said the headmaster.
The coach said: "Who knows if I have taken the antidote."
At this time, the ambulance came and took away the seven players who had repaired the baseball team and some water in the bucket.
Not long after, the Megure Police Department also led a team over. After learning about the situation, the Mumu Police Department immediately ordered two buckets of water to be tested.
"Is it Eto?" Conan rubbed his chin and muttered to himself. Eight cups are used by more than 20 people, and an average of three people use one cup. If it is on the mouth of the cup, it is possible, but if you apply medicine on the road, you will be seen. Mie Kaji has never touched it, and Kaji has only touched one bucket. Now there is a problem with the water in both buckets, and these players have the same symptom, so it should not be the two of them. As for the matter beforehand, it was the principal who asked Mie Kaji to find someone. Mie Kaji went to the principal suddenly, and it was also a coincidence that Mie Kaji found Kaji and Eto. Then, the principal did this. He prescribed the medicine in advance, but he drank the water himself, and there is no problem at all until now. Is there really an antidote? But, how did he do it, by getting some people out of the situation and others out of it. ...
