Chapter 456: Suspected of death from pufferfish toxin
Kamimura Ren's face looked even uglier than if he had eaten a fly. He looked at Maori Kogoro questioningly, "Come on, how can you suspect someone without any basis? Besides, you are not a policeman, be careful or I will sue you for defamation!"
Maori Kogoro coughed a few times and waved his hands embarrassedly, "I'm sorry, I just said that subconsciously."
Uemura Ren: “…”
"Uncle Maori, should we call the police first? After all, someone has died here." Conan raised his head, blinked, and spoke obediently, but he specifically mentioned the word "Mauri".
"Children should stop worrying about adults' affairs!" Kogoro Mouri hit Conan on the head without hesitation, then calmly took out his cell phone and called the police.
Conan stood aside with an angry look on his face, covering his head that had been hit.
"Mori? Mori Kogoro!? Are you the famous detective Mori Kogoro!?" Kamimura Ren was stunned for a moment when he heard the name, then he looked at Mori Kogoro carefully and suddenly remembered that he had seen this face in the newspaper.
After calling the police, Maori Kogoro put away his phone. When he heard the words 'famous detective', he immediately smiled. He rubbed the back of his head and laughed without knowing what modesty was. "Ahahahahahaha, that's right, I am Maori Kogoro."
"Uh..." Uemura Ren didn't know what to say for a moment. He was stunned for a while before he smiled awkwardly, "So it's really you. I'm so sorry. My name is Uemura Ren, and this is Ohashi Junpei."
He introduced himself, then pointed to the dead man lying on the ground and told his name to Kogoro Mouri.
A few people on the side listened to their conversation in a daze, and then followed suit to introduce themselves.
The one in charge of holding the shelf was Akasaka Takayuki, the one holding the bucket was Koike Ryosuke, the one holding the potted plant was Gomi Ryosuke, and the woman was Yamamoto Shoko.
"By the way, didn't Mr. Mori just ask Mr. Ohashi what he had eaten today? To be honest, I saw him at the puffer fish restaurant at noon today." Yamamoto Sakiko said softly.
"Pufferfish?" Upon hearing this, Kogoro Mouri frowned and thought for a moment.
If it is pufferfish, there is indeed a risk of being poisoned by pufferfish toxin.
"Is Mr. Ohashi the only one here?" Conan looked up at Yamamoto Yoko curiously. He was already fully familiar with the advantages of his current seven-year-old appearance.
"It doesn't seem so, but I'm not sure who he is with..." Yamamoto Miko thought for a moment and smiled apologetically at Conan.
Nodding, Conan asked again, "Oh...I see, then Miss Yamamoto, can you tell us which puffer fish restaurant he went to?"
"Of course, it's the one diagonally opposite the Baiyun Restaurant."
After Yamamoto Yoko finished answering, Conan suddenly felt a chill on his back, and then as expected, there was another bump on his head with a duang sound.
After the police on the island arrived, Kogoro Mori informed them of the basic situation, and then they went to the restaurant that served puffer fish dishes together.
When they asked the store owner whether Ohashi Junpei had dined here today because he was suspected to have died from pufferfish toxin, they were scared half to death. After all, if the customer really died of poisoning because their pufferfish dishes were not properly prepared, then not only would they be held responsible, but their business would also plummet.
