Chapter 840: The Incident of Lawyer Tachibana
November 11th, Saturday, afternoon, at Kensuke Tachibana's villa on the beach in Ichihara City, Chiba Prefecture.
Through Tachibana Kensuke's introduction, the four Moori learned that Tachibana Kensuke came on vacation with her young and beautiful wife Tachibana Yuki, and secretary Sakuraba Yuichi, the young man who was fishing with him. There is also a middle-aged housekeeper, Yaeko Kamei, and a cute dog, John, in the villa.
Maori called the car repair shop for repairs, but they said it would not be repaired until tomorrow. Tachibana Kensuke and his wife let the four of them live in peace of mind, and asked Yaeko Kamei to cook a table of dishes for the four of them.
While everyone was having dinner in a joyous atmosphere, Noriko Sugimura, the young female manager of Tachibana Law Firm, came to visit and delivered a letter, which made Tachibana Kensuke's face change. And not long after, the dinner was over in a hurry, which made Conan curious about the letter.
After the meal, Kamei Yaeko cleaned up the restaurant, Tachibana Yuki took Sonoko and Ran for a walk, and when Conan accompanied the drunk Mouri to sober up in the living room, he found that Tachibana Kensuke took Sugimura Noriko and Sakuraba Yuichi to the study, so he went to lie down Eavesdrop on the door.
Tachibana Xiansuke said, "Fazi, when did you receive this letter?"
Noriko Sugimura said, "It was at noon today."
Yuichi Sakuraba said, "Sir, I think you should call the police."
Tachibana Xiansuke reprimanded: "Shut up, I have my own plans."
Conan smiled in his heart, Aunt Yingli mentioned this lawyer to Lan, saying that he is a wicked person. Just now I wondered why he would treat his uncle so warmly. Now it seems that he has encountered some troubles that are not biased towards the outside world. .
Tachibana Xiansuke said angrily: "By the way, Fazi, what are you talking about with this figure? Could it be that you embezzled the firm's public funds? I trust you and leave all accounting matters to you of."
Noriko Sugimura said: "But Mrs. Xiang doesn't know how to spend money at all, and I, the account manager, can't talk about her situation. What do you want me to do? Actually, in my opinion, Mrs. is asking Mr. You are taking revenge. I advise you to divorce her early, or find out all the private money she has kept in secret."
Tachibana Xiansuke reprimanded: "You are just the manager of the firm, don't take care of my housework."
Noriko Sugimura said: "I am also doing this for your own good, and for the good of the firm. Before the husband is killed, the husband should take some action."
Killed! Conan was taken aback, and then heard the sound of high heels hitting the ground, knowing that it was Harusugi who came out, so he quickly avoided, and waited for her to leave before eavesdropping.
Tachibana Xiansuke asked: "Did you catch that woman's fox tail?"
Sakuraba Yuichi said: "Not yet, sir, is it true that she..."
"Slap!" It sounded like Kensuke Tachibana slapped Yuu Sakuraba, Kensuke Tachibana said angrily, "Shut up, you idiot, I said yes, you are such a useless guy, you are this Xiangcai Can't pass the bar exam."
Sakuraba Yuichi said: "How can you say that, it's because you didn't give me much time to study."
"Slap!" It sounded like Kensuke Tachibana slapped Yuu Sakuraba again, Kensuke Tachibana said angrily, "How dare you talk back to me, an ignorant person like you can't stand out wherever you go, Get out of here, I'll be angry when I see you like this."
When Conan heard this, he quickly went to hide again, and waited for Yuichi Sakuraba to walk away, touching his cheeks with resentment. He wanted to go to eavesdrop again, but Kamei Yaeko came to serve tea, so he had to go back to Maori. ...
The next day, November 12th, Sunday morning, Tachibana Kensuke's villa.
After Conan and Lan got up, they saw Kamei Yaeko preparing John's dog food, so they stepped forward to help, and took over the job of feeding the dog.
While the two were happily watching John eat, Yuichi Sakuraba sent out Kensuke Tachibana with his fishing tackle on his back.
Lan and Conan stepped forward to say hello, "Lawyer Tachibana, Mr. Sakuraba, good morning.
"
Yuichi Sakuraba said, "Miss Lan, Conan, good morning."
"Why did you get up so early?" Tachibana Xiansuke asked, "Did you not sleep well last night?"
Lan smiled and said, "It's all thanks to you."
"That's good." Tachibana Xiansuke smiled, "I will catch a big fish today, just wait."
At this time, Kamei Yaeko came to hand over the bento and teacup, Tachibana Kensuke took it, and left while Sakuraniwa Yuichi and Kamei Yaeko sent it off.
In the morning, when the four of Mori and Sakuraba Yuichi were having breakfast made by Yaeko Kamei, John suddenly yelled. It was only after Lan asked that it was time for a walk, and John was reminding Yaeko Kamei.
Yuanzi stuck out her tongue, "I'm really sorry, I got up late."
Lan smiled and said, "I think we'll take John there."
Kamei Yaeko said: "That's really troublesome for you."
"Uh, you guys," Maori asked, pointing at himself, "wouldn't there be me among them?"
Lan said: "Of course, let's take a walk after dinner."
Yuanzi smiled and said, "If you eat and don't exercise, wait until you get fat, uncle, and see how you can be a detective."
Conan asked back: "Uncle, aren't you going to the garage?"
"Almost forgot." Maori said, "Then let's go together."
After that, Sakuraba Yu went back to his office in Tokyo, the four of them went to take John for a walk, and Tachibana Yuki was still sleeping. ...
In the morning, Yamazaki and Midaiko went to Mika Station to take the tram on the loop line to Tokyo Station, then transferred to the Tokoku Railway Sobuuchibo Line express train to Goi Station in Ichihara City, Chiba Prefecture, and then went to the Denim convenience store in front of the station. Finding that yesterday's driver was not there, he took a taxi to Tachibana Kensuke's villa. ...
Outside Tachibana Kensuke's villa.
Yamazaki and Mei Daizi knocked on the door and found no answer. They walked around the window and found a middle-aged woman lying on the kitchen floor, and immediately kicked the door open.
The two went in and found that the middle-aged woman was passed out and seemed to be poisoned.
Mei Daizi pointed to the bowl on the kitchen counter and said, "Brother, she must have eaten the stuff in it. It tastes like mushroom soup." Then she came to her senses and ran upstairs, shouting the names of Lan and Yuanzi.
Yamazaki called an ambulance on his mobile phone, then called Mouri, and was relieved to learn that the four of them were walking their dogs, and then told Moori what had happened.
"Food poisoning?" Conan was taken aback, and immediately wondered whether Kensuke Tachibana might also be poisoned, so he said, "Uncle, Lawyer Tachibana took away a pawn."
Mao Li said: "By the way, there is also Lawyer Ju, who went fishing at sea."
"It shouldn't be, we're fine." Lan said.
Yamazaki said: "I see, come quickly."
"We're going there," Molly said.
Just after finishing the call, Mei Daizi came downstairs with a young woman in her arms, "Brother, she is also poisoned, it seems to be worse than the older one."
Yamazaki said: "Maybe it's because the older ones cooked something for the younger ones to eat. Some came out, and they didn't want to throw it away, so they ate it."
Mei Daizi said: "It should be like this."
Yamazaki said: "You wait here, I will go to the small pier by the sea to see, there may be another one there."
"I see, brother." Mei Daizi said.
After that, Yamazaki went to the small pier by the sea and asked the charter owner if he knew Lawyer Tachibana and where Lawyer Tachibana was.
"Is it Lawyer Tachibana Kensuke?" The boat owner pointed to a boat in the distance and said, "He's right there."
"Thank you," said Yamazaki, "I want to rent a boat."
"What are you talking about renting?" the boat owner said with a smile, "You want to find Lawyer Ju, so feel free to use it. You're welcome."
"Then thank you." Yamazaki said, and then picked a speedboat, and before he got close, he found a person lying on the boat, so he called an ambulance with his mobile phone, and then called Moli. ...
On the other side, Tachibana Kensuke Villa.
At this time, the ambulance came. As soon as they left, the four of Maori ran back with the dog. Mei Daizi and them rushed to the small pier by the sea.
Small pier by the sea.
When the four of Maori arrived, Yamazaki hadn't arrived yet, and then an ambulance drove over, and Maori hurried forward to explain.
Mei Daizi pointed to an approaching speedboat and said, "Brother must be on that speedboat, wait a moment."
"Well, I hope you're not joking," said the doctor.
"How could this be?" Molly said.
Conan remembered the conversation he overheard yesterday, so he said, "By the way, Uncle, are we going to call the police?"
"Call the police?" Maori asked, "You mean poisoning?"
"That might not be true." Yuanzi smiled, "Because you, a great detective, are here."
"Yuanzi." Lan said dissatisfied.
"I think it makes sense." Mei Daizi smiled.
"Really, you two." Lan said helplessly.
"Big detective? You're not a Maori detective, are you?" The doctor was surprised, and then looked Maori up and down together with the two ambulance personnel, the driver, and the boat owner.
Sensing their eyes looking like rare animals, Maori shuddered, "It's me."
At this time, Yamazaki brought Kensuke Tachibana over, and after the ambulance dragged him away, Mao Li, Ran, Conan, Sonoko, Yamazaki, and Mei Daiko returned to the villa to wait for the police. ...
