Chapter 117: Wedding Eve (Part )
Under the burned car, Conan found a fake nail. After Officer Takagi took it for testing, he found that it was stained with some dandruff, so the police believed that this was a case of attempted murder.
The angry Raita Banba asked who wanted to kill Hatsune Miku, but Inspector Megure said that the DNA test results of the dandruff on the false nails and the hair on Raita Banba's comb were consistent.
Banba Raita became even more angry and said that it was impossible for him to murder Hatsune Miku. Then Amuro Toru appeared and interrupted his explanation: "It's not impossible that you did it."
The man wearing sunglasses stood up to refute Amuro Toru: "How dare you say that? Don't you want to kill the woman you love before she gets married and becomes someone else's wife?"
Raita Hanba also pointed out that Amuro Toru was the gigolo who had been dating Miku Kado before. However, Amuro Toru soon revealed the truth: he and the man wearing sunglasses were detectives hired by the couple to investigate whether the other was having an affair.
Kogoro Mouri complained about why Banba Raita didn't ask his old classmate for help. He said that Kogoro Mouri was too famous and everyone knew him, so it was inappropriate.
Later, Ryota Banba said that he only learned about Miku Kado's suicidal thoughts after receiving a phone call.
Amuro Toru pointed the finger at the knight: "Speaking of which, this gentleman's behavior is quite suspicious. I remember that he went out before Mr. Banba received the call, and he only came back after the car exploded."
Inspector Megure asked if this was true. Many people in the restaurant saw this scene and nodded.
"So, sir, dressed in armor and like a knight, can you tell me what you went out for at that time?" Amuro revealed a confident smile.
The host, Lai Tai, was also furious: "Could it be that you are also the gigolo who met Hatsune Miku?"
Ms. Farrow stopped Mrs. Lai from rushing over and said, "This gentleman has misunderstood. Richard already has someone he loves, and he has nothing to do with Miss Garment. Please don't be so aggressive."
"By the way, let me introduce myself. I'm Evelyn Morey and this is Richard Sterling."
Inspector Megure said, "Even so, this does not reduce the suspicion of this gentleman. Please tell us what you were doing when you left the house."
"I just went to pick up a performance play that a friend gave me." The knight raised a script wet by rain in his hand, which seemed to record a play about the knights of Avalon.
[Hermit: Honestly, this script is really hard for my old arms and legs.]
[Forward: Actually, it's okay. I was just lying on the stairs.]
[Fire Investigator: You're tough and you're fine, but why don't you mention that Richard actually pushed us down there to make the action look "natural and realistic"?]
[Night Watchman: And that table, can’t we wait until we’re done eating before we open it?]
[Psychologist: Didn't they give a lot of compensation afterwards? Richard also apologized. Let's stop dwelling on this matter.]
[Patient: Ada Ada, I’m your lake fairy in the script~]
[Puppeteer: Ah, here we go again.]
"So you're an actor?" Inspector Megure asked curiously after reading the script. "That's why you're dressed like this."
"He will play the leader of the Knights Templar in the play, so he started adapting to the role a few days in advance," Ms. Farrow gave this reason.
After receiving a somewhat reasonable explanation, Inspector Megure turned his attention back to the most suspected suspect, Yorita Hanba. After some explanation, Yorita Hanba was ready to go with the police for another DNA test. Amuro Toru revealed an important piece of news, that is, Yorita Hanba and Hatsune Kato were rescued from the same hotel fire.
Now Conan understood the truth of the matter. He took the opportunity to sneak under the table and shot Kogoro Mouri with a tranquilizer gun, preparing to start a double act.
"Banchang, I can confirm that you are not the real murderer."
"If Mr. Banchang wanted to kill Miss Garmon, he could only leave through the main entrance of the restaurant. That would be quite conspicuous, just like Mr. Richard."
Amuro Toru countered: "He might have disguised himself in the bathroom so that no one would notice him, and then cut up his clothes and flushed them down the toilet when he came back."
"What about the shoes? There's no way to cut them into pieces."
"It doesn't matter whether he changes his shoes or not. As long as he keeps moving around, no one will notice what style his shoes are."
"Then take off your shoes and show them to him."
When Banba Lai Tai took off his shoes, the soles were still stained with chocolate cream, which proved that he did not leave the restaurant into the rain, otherwise the traces of cream would have been washed away by the accumulated water.
"That's right, and the waiter accidentally knocked over the cake. It was completely accidental that he stepped on the cream. He didn't intentionally try to create an alibi in this way."
Amuro Toru retorted anxiously: "Wait, what about DNA? DNA testing cannot be falsified."
"The nail that's stained is actually Miss Jamon's own skin dandruff." The knight stood up and gave an elegant knight's salute to everyone.
"What nonsense are you talking about? If they weren't close relatives, it would be almost impossible for their genes to be identical."
"Why not? They are twin brothers and sisters."
Everyone was shocked, and the host Lai Tai couldn't believe it at all.
"Didn't you just say that they were rescued from the same burning hotel and then adopted by the church without their identities being confirmed?"
"Besides, that lady's height is much shorter than that of an average person. Even when wearing high heels, she's still shorter than a normal woman."
Toru Amuro reacted and explained to everyone the principles of fraternal twins.
"So it's very likely that the lady chose to commit suicide after knowing the truth," Ms. Farrow added.
Lai Tai Banba knelt on the ground and cried. At the same time, information came from the hospital and the police station that Miss Jiamen was not seriously injured, and that the DNA of Miss Jiamen and Mr. Banba was indeed exactly the same.
Ms. Farrow walked up to the knight and said, "Don't cry. At least you can still live together as a family supporting each other. This guy over here isn't so lucky."
The knight curled his lips and said nothing, then went back to his seat to drink coffee.
He had just picked up the cup when Conan came out from under the seat and asked quietly, "Well, Mr. Richard went out to throw out the paint buckets and spray cans in Miss Garment's car, otherwise they would explode and kill Miss Garment. I saw paint on your feet."
"The knight will always be with the princess." The knight said something Conan couldn't understand. After drinking his coffee, he stood up and left with Ms. Farrow.
Before leaving, Ms. Farrow looked at Toru Amuro deliberately and tossed the dice in her hand.
Toru Amuro frowned. Although he knew the full name of "Ms. Farrow", he was afraid that she had also noticed him. It seemed that he would not be able to get any useful information by directly checking her identity.
After the matter was over, Toru Amuro came to work at the Poirot Cafe, and by the way, he used his money power to become Kogoro Mori's apprentice.
