Andre Kamel nodded and said, "Yes, from the content of the conversation just now, it sounds like he might be talking to someone here, because he wants to turn himself in and tell the police that he killed someone named 'Abe', so it is possible that he was killed by the person he was talking to.
But then I remembered that this person was eating alone in the restaurant, and I didn't hear the voice of the person he was talking to. So I concluded that he might be talking on the phone, and although the person he was talking to wanted to stop him from committing suicide, he didn't listen. So I think he committed suicide because he felt guilty about the crime of murder. "
Qing Musong raised his eyebrows and looked at Andre Kamel and asked, "Are you sure that the voice you heard was the other party's voice?"
Andre Kamel replied: "That should be correct. Because this person was sitting right in front of me, and he was quite loud when he ordered."
Maori Kogoro said confidently: "In that case, it must be suicide."
Maruta Ayumi frowned and said, "But there is no related case in Tokyo regarding the poisoning of the man named 'Abe' he mentioned. It may have happened in other counties, so we are now actively investigating it."
Andre Kamel heard this and said, "I think the man named 'Abe' must have a close relationship with the dead man, because he even added a small word to call him."
"So, he is talking about 'Little Abe'?" Koshimizu Nanatsuki asked thoughtfully.
Andre Kamel nodded and said, "Yes!"
Qing Musong thought for a moment and asked: "Did you notice anything else? But I'm afraid you can't hear it very well, such as the accent of the speaker."
Andre Kamel seemed to suddenly remember something when he heard this. He pointed at Hattori Heiji and said, "The accent. His accent is exactly the same as this young man's."
Hattori Heiji was a little surprised when he saw this and asked, "Eh? Me? So you're the one who speaks with a Guanxi accent?"
Andre Kamel said, "Although I don't know what the accent is, there are often ending particles like 'ya', 'ah', 'li' at the end of sentences."
Aoki Matsu heard this and said, "The poisoning of Abe may have happened in the Kansai region. Maruta will immediately send someone to investigate."
Maruta Ayumi responded: “Yes!”
At this time, Andre Camille suddenly saw Masumi Sera at the door of the toilet and was stunned.
Seeing this, Sera Masumi asked in confusion: "What? Is there something dirty on my face?"
Andre Kamel was a little panicked when he heard this. "Ah? No!"
But I was thinking, "Where have I seen this child before?"
Seeing this, Sera Masumi smiled and said, "If you are trying to figure out whether I am a boy or a girl, the correct answer is a girl. But my breasts haven't grown yet."
She was laughing as she spoke, and it was obvious that she was already accustomed to such looks and such speculations.
At this moment, the guests outside have begun to get restless.
"What happened?"
"who knows."
"It seems like a murder has occurred!"
"real or fake!"
"very hungry."
Toyama Kazuha couldn't help but say to Mao Lilan: "Will it take Heiji and the others a long time to finish?"
Mao Lilan looked at the menu and said, "With Aoki brother here, it should be quick. I almost drooled when I saw the menu. How terrible."
Yuanshan Heye smiled and said, "If you're hungry, would you like a little candy?"
Mao Lilan was stunned. "Little sugar ball?"
Yuanshan Heye took out a candy from her bag and said, "It means candy ball."
In the toilet, Aoki Matsu began to inspect the scene and the body, and Hattori Heiji, Mori Kogoro and others were driven out.
Hattori Heiji and Conan were alone in a corner, whispering: "Hey Kudo, let me ask you, how much do you know about this case?"
Conan shook his head helplessly and said, "I have no clue at all. If the police can really find out that there was a case in Kansai where a man named Abe was poisoned, maybe it will be easier, right?"
Hearing this, Hattori Heiji said with some pride: "Really? In that case, I am temporarily ahead."
Conan was surprised when he heard this and looked up at Hattori Heiji, "Could it be that you have already--"
Hattori Heiji smiled proudly and said, "Yes, I already know. That guy didn't commit suicide, but was murdered. And I also know that the murderer is still in this restaurant."
Conan was shocked when he heard this, "Hey!!!"
[No way, Hattori Heiji is so much ahead of me this time? 】
Conan asked in surprise: "You, you said he didn't commit suicide, why are you so sure?"
Hattori Heiji said proudly: "Let me tell you, Kudo, that's because I'm a better detective than you, idiot."
Conan was frightened again "Eh!!!!"
Then Conan looked at Hattori Heiji speechlessly and said, "Okay, I admit that you are better than me, it doesn't matter, just tell me your reasoning."
Seeing this, Hattori Heiji deliberately said: "What did you say? Maybe your voice was too soft and I couldn't hear you clearly!"
Conan said loudly: "I mean tell me your reasoning quickly!"
Hattori Heiji still took advantage and said, "The one before!"
Conan raised his eyebrows and then said helplessly: "Just, I admit that it doesn't matter if you are better than me."
"Eh, hey!" Hattori Heiji laughed. "Of course. If I don't explain it clearly to someone who is stronger than you, how can my little brother know it, right?"
As he said this, he put his hand on Conan's head and shook it, looking like a villain who has become arrogant after achieving success.
Conan gave Hattori Heiji a look.
[This kid, I really want to beat him up]
Taking advantage of Conan, Hattori Heiji began to reason, "Then please think carefully about the situation at that time."
"What happened at that time?" Conan repeated after hearing the words: "Agent Cameron was using the restroom of this family restaurant when he suddenly heard a man in the next restroom saying something that seemed like he wanted to commit suicide. He hurried over to take a look and found that the man had died with a candy ball coated with cyanide poison in his mouth."
Hattori Heiji immediately asked back: "What are those words that seem like suicidal?"
Conan thought for a moment and said, "That's right. Even if he was my childhood friend, I can't agree to such a request. I was the one who poisoned Mr. Abe and killed him. So I must take responsibility."
Hearing this, Hattori Heiji interrupted Conan and pointed out the problem, "It's not Mr. Abe, it's Little Abe, please don't get the details wrong, okay?"
Seeing this, Conan said irritably: "Don't be so fussy about such trivial matters. Tell me quickly."
Hattori Heiji took it a little more seriously, looked at Conan and said, "Do you remember that man spoke in Kansai accent?"
Conan nodded, "I remember! What does it matter?"
"This is a big problem," Hattori Heiji explained, "If those words were said in our language, it would become like this, 'Even if they are childhood friends, I can't agree to such a request. I was the one who gave Awa-chan the poison and killed him. If that's the case, I must take responsibility.'"
Conan looked at Hattori Heiji seriously and said, "Ah!!!"
At this time, Andre Kamel, who heard Hattori Heiji talking loudly, pointed at Heiji and said excitedly: "Yes, yes, that's the accent. What I heard before is exactly the same as what he just said."
Hearing this, Andre Kamel looked at Aoki Song and other criminals and said, "Right, just like I said, the dead man must have confessed his crimes to others, and then committed suicide because of the condemnation of his conscience, right?"
Qing Musong and others were stunned.
because……
"No, those words just now might be——"
Sera Masumi responded, "If it's Kansai dialect, then the "self" mentioned at this time should be referring to you."
Andre Camille "Why is the word 'self' in Japanese? It should mean 'me', why is it 'you'?"
Masumi Sera explained, "For example, in the sentence 'we will be responsible for you', the 'we' does not include the other party. However, if we discuss it, it means 'we' including the other party. There are many difficult places to understand in Japanese."
Maori Kogoro also said: "If I replace myself with you, it will become 'it was you who gave poison to Abe and killed him. If that's the case, you must be responsible. The meaning is different'."
Andre Kamel was very surprised when he heard this and said, "Then the dead man was not confessing his crime to others."
Qing Musong nodded. "The deceased was blaming the other party for the crime and persuading the other party to surrender. That should be the case."
Hearing this, Hattori Heiji looked at Andre Kamel and asked the guess in his mind, "By the way, does the phrase 'give little Abe poison to eat' sound closer to 'apply'?"
Andre Kamel was stunned when he heard this, then nodded and replied: "Yes, but because I want to apply poison to people, it sounds a bit strange, maybe I heard it wrong, it should be eaten."
Hearing this, Hattori Heiji looked at everyone and said, "In that case, the 'Little Abe' should not refer to a certain person. Little Abe should be the 'Candy Ball'."
Andre Kamil shocked again with "Candy Balls!!!"
"Yeah." Hattori Heiji said, "The man who died in the bathroom also happened to have a poisonous candy ball in his mouth, didn't he?"
Maori Kogoro nodded, "I see, I heard 'Xiaotangqiu' as 'Xiao Abe'."
"The pronunciations of these two words are indeed very similar." Aoki Matsu also said.
Andre Kamel asked in confusion: "But why add a small word to the candy ball?"
Hearing this, Hattori Heiji said a little embarrassedly: "That's right, our language is really hard to understand."
"The term 'little sugar ball' is a term limited to a certain area!" said Aoki Matsu.
Sera Masumi noticed something strange at this time. "But if that's the case, then the man who made that man eat the poisoned candy should have been in the bathroom at the time."
Eating in the toilet?!
Hattori Heiji nodded and said, "That's right. The reason why the FBI man didn't hear the murderer's words was probably because he was trying to persuade him to turn himself in. The man and the murderer had an appointment to meet in this restaurant, but they sat at different tables, so the murderer called him to the bathroom and then poisoned him.
As long as you can trick him into going to the bathroom over the phone, and then just force the poisoned candy into his mouth, there is no need to talk. Then throw the phone into the toilet and sink it in water to delete the call record. "
Upon hearing this, Masumi Sera looked at Andre Kamil and said, "But what was unexpected to the murderer was that there happened to be an FBI agent in the bathroom at the time. He immediately decided to keep the guests in the restaurant. In other words, the murderer should still be in this restaurant now."
Upon hearing this, Qing Musong instructed the police officer beside him: "Lock the suspects to men between 30 and 40 years old and interrogate them one by one. Since they are childhood friends, they should be around this age."
Upon hearing this, Yoji Aihara responded, "Yes!" and then walked quickly forward.
Hattori Heiji rubbed Conan's head proudly and said, "So, from the current point of view, my progress is one step ahead of this kid, right?"
Sera Masumi was a little surprised when he heard this and said, "What do you mean by 'this kid'? You are competing with Kudo Shinichi, aren't you?"
Hattori Heiji and Conan were suddenly panicked, and Conan looked at Hattori Heiji with an unfriendly look.
Hattori Heiji hurriedly explained in a panic, "I, I mean I'm one step ahead of Kudo who's backing this kid. Every time this kid listens to Kudo's reasoning on the phone, he makes it sound like his own reasoning, which makes me have the illusion that this kid is Kudo Shinichi, hahahaha."
Upon hearing this, Sera Masumi looked at the two of them meaningfully.
Hattori Heiji quickly changed the subject and said seriously, "But sorry, I'm sure to win this case. Since the murderer is a childhood friend of the deceased, the murderer is probably from Kansai. Kudo, who was born and raised in Tokyo, is not very familiar with the local customs, but as a Kansai person, I figured it out immediately. Ah... It hurts!"
Before he could finish his words, Hattori Heiji was hit hard on the head.
Hattori Heiji looked up and saw it was Aoki Matsu.
Aoki Matsu looked at him unkindly and said, "Hattori-kun, have you forgotten what I told you before?"
