Chapter 787 Don’t judge people by appearance
"When the case happened, there were four people on vacation. They were all female mystery novel writers..." Yuanshan Heye muttered, "It really fits the elements of the case..."
Rice popcorn is horrible.
Sera Masumi, who had just entered the rice flower market, still didn't believe it. She looked at Martin with a squinting eye and said, "Did you know in advance that these people would come today?"
"If I had known it would be today," Martin swore, "the TV station would have been in place long ago."
"And this case is easy to handle. According to incomplete statistics, 99% of the motives for murder between two writers are plagiarism and ghostwriting." Martin waved his hand: "So we just need to find the works of the deceased and these three people and see who has the style of the deceased's work most similar to the deceased, and that person is the murderer."
“Miaaaaoooo——? (Where is the basic event space of your incomplete statistics? Is the way of dividing the population scientific?)”
Martin gave a thumbs-up: "From over a thousand episodes of the cartoon."
"Tsk, that's unreliable. At the critical moment, I, the queen of reasoning, still have to rely on you, Sonoko!" Suzuki Sonoko crossed her arms and thought for a while: "By the way, what is the clue?"
Miyano Akemi helped to think: "Anyway, as long as we find out who this 'rat' is called, we will know who the murderer is, right?"
"Speaking of nicknames, there is a nickname enthusiast here." Suzuki Sonoko looked at Martin: "Do you have any inspiration?"
"If it were me, I would usually judge people by appearance." Martin looked at the three aunties without being polite. He first pointed at an auntie with a large and round body and said, "This big heavy weight is the 'elephant'."
Then he pointed to an old lady with a long narrow face and slanted eyes and said: "This long face is the 'fox'."
The last lady was not only short in stature, but also had two buck teeth that were more obvious than a rabbit's: "These big buck teeth are the 'rat'."
I have to say, apart from the fact that 'elephant' is not quite appropriate in appearance, the other two aunties do look like a fox and a mouse.
A certain great detective: "Your nicknames are all 'Da', right?"
In the case where the "rat" is equivalent to the criminal, the big-toothed man pointed out by Martin certainly didn't agree: "Hey, hey, hey! It's too much to identify me as the murderer just based on my appearance, isn't it?"
"Indeed, generally speaking there must be a twist." Martin nodded in agreement. Not to mention that there must be twists and turns in the plot, the most obvious answer should be eliminated first. Just talking about judging people by appearance, such an answer can lead children astray.
Then Martin looked at Zeli Xun who was kneeling on the ground: "I guess this guy also has a nickname."
"My younger sister gave me a nickname, Yellow Oriole." Ze Lixun said honestly.
Yellow oriole is another name for the black-necked oriole in the genus Oriole. It is the oriole that sings in the green willows among the two orioles. It is famous for its pleasant singing voice.
Martin looked at the burly, muscular Zeli Xun and said, "Emmm...I was wrong."
This guy's appearance has nothing to do with the petite yellow warbler. As expected, the deceased writer did not give his nickname based on his appearance. It is probably a word game, or a homonym, color, etc.
"Is it possible that your sister suddenly became depressed and committed suicide?" Kogoro Mouri muttered with his half-moon eyes.
"Impossible!" Ze Lixun became excited: "Why would Weihong commit suicide? I can't even think of a reason! Give me a reason!"
"I don't know her..." Kogoro Mouri muttered softly.
Martin picked up a half piece of newspaper from the scattered documents on the ground. It was the headline report about the suicide of a new writer who won the Naoki Award. An idea suddenly occurred to him: "Could it be to prevent the big bald head of the Suzuki family from making the headlines?"
"Wow, how can Uncle Jirokichi be so hated?" Suzuki Sonoko exclaimed: "And you call him Big Baldy?" "Aren't we discussing nicknames?" Martin waved his hand: "The real Big Baldy hasn't officially appeared yet."
"I don't care. I'll tell Uncle Jiroji when I see him next time." Sonoko said with a sly smile, "Uncle Jiroji is narrow-minded. Be careful that he will bear a grudge against you."
Kaito Kid stole the headlines from Suzuki Jirokichi, and Suzuki Jirokichi has been holding a grudge against him until now. During this period, Conan also stole the headlines from Suzuki Jirokichi, and it is said that Suzuki Jirokichi has been talking about it for a week.
"The abbot is, of course, petty."
Dangdangdang...there was a knock on the door.
"Mr. Mori? I'm a clerk at the Poirot shop downstairs. There seemed to be a loud noise just now. Did something happen?" A young man's voice came from outside the door. It was Toru Amuro, whose face I had just met not long ago.
"The real bald guy's men are coming..." Martin muttered softly.
"You mean Xun Yu..." Conan complained helplessly. Who was the real bald guy that Martin mentioned? The manager of the coffee shop? No... Did he call the doctor that before his hair grew out? Or not?
Maori Kogoro was about to tell Amuro Toru outside the door that nothing happened, when Martin suddenly shouted, "Quick! Get him out! Don't let him notice that something is wrong! If you dare to ask for help, I will shoot you."
Everyone is confused.

Sawakuri Isao twitched his lips. If he had successfully kidnapped Mori Kogoro, it would be his turn to say this. Of course, he would lower his voice so that only Mori Kogoro could hear this.
"..." Maori Kogoro was speechless for a long time, and then he said to the outside of the door: "Now if I say nothing happened, you probably won't believe it, but it's really okay, just a brat was joking."
Now the problem was handed over to Toru Amuro who was outside the door. He had been paying attention to Kogoro Mori. Not only did he hear another loud noise from the office upstairs not long ago, but when he walked out of the coffee shop and looked up, he found that the curtains of the office were suddenly drawn in broad daylight.
It is speculated that something unusual happened in the office, so Toru Amuro came up to ask. Maybe Maori Kogoro was in danger and I could save his life, maybe Maori Kogoro had his own way out of trouble, and I could also add icing on the cake, so I would not harm him.
But this sounds like a situation where he is in trouble for being a stupid thief. It feels like both that Mouri Kogoro is telling the truth and that he is asking for help.
"Why don't you come in and take a look? The door is not locked." Maori Kogoro said again: "It's just that it's a bit messy inside now, and a bit...unsightly."
Kogoro Mori looked at Sawaguri Isao and added with mixed feelings.
Martin gave the order again: "Old Four and Old Eight, squat at the door. When that guy comes in, knock him out with a plunger."
Kogoro Mori: I want to stuff a plunger into his mouth.
"..." Amuro Toru thought for a while, not wanting to try to see if he would be knocked unconscious by the plunger: "Ms. Azusa said that the store manager got into the oven to avoid the landlord and got stuck. I have to go and help get the store manager out so as not to disturb Mr. Mori."
Kogoro Mouri: I remember I came as the landlord.
"That blond handsome guy must have called the police." Suzuki Sonoko looked at Martin with squinted eyes, with an expression that said 'let's see how this ends for you'.
"Doesn't this save us from having to call the police?" Martin asked as a matter of course. He picked up a sausage-like explosive unit from the sofa and held it in his hand: "Don't you think we don't need to call the police for this matter?"
"Eh? That's right."
