Chapter 262: Events in the Karaoke Hall

December 25th, Wednesday, Christmas night, at the Big Camphor Tree Karaoke Hall.

Mei Daizi suddenly smelled bitter almonds, and suspected it was hydrogen cyanide. Then, Kimura Tatsuya said that his palms felt a little hot. Yamazaki judged that it might be contaminated with highly toxic cyanide, and asked him to wash it off immediately. The others stood and waited.

Yamazaki said again: "By the way, Mr. Kimura, your hand touched the elbow of the dress you are wearing. It is winter and you wear a lot of clothes. You should cut off the sleeves."

Kimura Tatsuya nodded and said, "I see, thank you." Then he slowly opened and closed the door and went out. Not long after, the air conditioner and ventilation stopped, and then the sound of customers leaving came from outside the door.

Yamazaki said: "Very well, now it seems that Mr. Sumi did not inject poison from the air conditioner. And up to now, there is still no smell of bitter almonds, and everyone is not uncomfortable. It seems that even if there is poison in this room, it is just There is a small amount of poison. I see that there is nothing unusual about the coats on everyone. It seems that you are not stained with drugs. Let’s go out one by one, Conan, you go first, and let the boss add a seat for you in the lobby."

Conan, Ran, Sonoko, Mari Terahara, Emiko Shibazaki, and Katsumi Yamada went out one by one. Yamazaki asked, "Do you still feel no danger?"

"Not at all." Mei Daizi said.

"That's too little," Yamazaki said, "Let's go too."

Yamazaki walked behind Mei Daizi, and then slowly closed the door.

In the hall, Mr. Sumi asked, "Kaji, what's going on, is it really potassium cyanide?"

Katsumi Yamada said: "I don't know either, anyway, I didn't find anything."

"Mari?" Sumii-san asked.

"I don't know," Terahara Mari said, "But Tatsuya's hand was indeed reddened by something, it looks like it was burned."

Yamazaki stepped forward and said, "I still don't know what the drug is. I can only confirm that it emits a gas that smells like bitter almonds. The solution formed after being wet is corrosive."

Mr. Sumi asked, "Mari, who is this?"

"I forgot to mention, my name is Yamazaki, and I'm a detective from Kogoro Mori's office," Yamazaki said with a smile, "I'm half a detective."

"Sleeping Kogoro!" Terahara Mari and the others were taken aback.

"Hey, sister Emiko," Conan asked, "Is your hand alright?"

"No," Shibazaki Emiko asked, "Why do you ask?"

"Because you were the one who sang before Brother Tatsuya sang," Conan said with a smile, "You should have touched the things that Brother Tatsuya touched."

"Ah!" Sonoko asked, "Could it be that someone is targeting Tatsuya?" Then he asked Emiko Shibazaki, "Seeing how you cried just now, there must have been something between you and Tatsuya, right? Then Tatsu is leaving too, so you have to..."

"It's not me." Shibazaki Emiko said quickly, "Although I have confessed my love to Tatsuya, Tatsuya said that he already has someone he likes."

"What!" Yuanzi was taken aback, and hurriedly asked, "Who is it?"

"I don't know," Shibazaki Emiko said, "Tatsuya said that at the time, 'Although I don't know where she is now, but I am willing to wait for her, no matter when, forever, forever.'"

"ah.

Yuanzi cried, "how could this be?" "

"Mr. Yamazaki," Terahara Mari asked, "do you also think we are going to harm Tatsuya?"

"It's hard to say whether it's harmful or not. After all, I don't know what kind of medicine it is." Yamazaki said, "But this medicine will be damp, and the solution is corrosive. It is impossible to touch it with bare hands. Instead, pour it in a small bottle, apply it with a handkerchief, etc. The method will be seen, so it is not after we enter the room."

"Sumi?" Yamada Katsumi exclaimed in surprise.

"It's not me," Mr. Sumi said hastily, "My relationship with Tatsuya isn't bad enough to kill him, right? And how could I smear cyanide in my shop? I don't know how you guys will sit."

Yamazaki asked: "Miss Mari, the seat where you are sitting is the closest to Mr. Kimura, have you noticed that there is something powdery on his clothes?"

"No." Terahara Mari said, and then asked, "Is the medicine on the clothes?"

"Yes," Yamazaki said, "that's why the wind blown by the clothes smells of bitter almonds."

"The clothes are always in the lounge," Yamada Katsumi said, "It must have been during the concert, whoever was jealous of Tatsuya secretly went to the lounge to do it while we were away."

Conan asked: "Sister Mari, are you three often talked about by Brother Tatsuya?"

"This..." Terahara Mari didn't know how to answer.

"Conan." Lan said, "I'm sorry, Ms. Mari, Conan is just curious, not malicious."

Emiko Shibazaki said: "That's true. Every time there is something, Tatsuya will criticize us, but I think Tatsuya is right. I am indeed not as good as Katsumi. However, he is very strange when he targets Mari. I don't know why, sometimes I will deliberately provoke Manager Mari for no reason."

"Mari, has Tatsuya become like this?" Mr. Sumii asked.

"..." Mari Terahara opened her mouth and did not speak.

"Already," Conan asked, "didn't they be like this before?"

"In the past, I really miss it." Mr. Sumi said, "I used to be in the same band with Tatsuya and Mari, but now Tatsuya and Mari are the only ones who are still working hard for their dreams in the music industry .By the way, let me tell you, Tatsuya actually joined the band because he wanted to be with you back then."

"What!" Mari Terahara and the others were taken aback.

At this time, the police came, led by the Mumu Police Department. As soon as he came and saw Yamazaki, he asked: "Yamazaki, what happened here, why did you say that the cyanide leaked?"

"There is a smell of bitter almonds in the private room. Mr. Kimura Tatsuya's palm seems to have been burned by something corrosive. He is flushing his hand in the bathroom now, so I think it is cyanide, which deliquesces in the air and produces a small amount of strong alkali solution. ’” Yamazaki said. "But I didn't smell it anymore, it should be only a very small amount."

"Phew." The Megure police department breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately called the disaster countermeasures department to stop coming, and asked them to inform the fire department that they were no longer available.

At this time, the ambulance came, and after seeing Kimura Tatsuya's wound, the ambulance doctor confirmed that he was contaminated with strong drugs such as cyanide, and took Kimura Tatsuya, who was already feeling unwell, back to the hospital for treatment.

After learning what happened, the Mumu Police Department immediately sent several forensic personnel into the room to check, and told the forensic personnel wearing gas masks to be careful.

Ten minutes later, a red catering truck stopped outside Dazhangshu Karaoke Hall, and then several people in white chef uniforms came down, and then a person in chef uniform came to the cordon and negotiated with the police on guard. stand up.

"Ah, my dinner is here," Mei Daizi smiled, "Brother, Lan, Yuanzi, everyone, let's come together."

"Uh," Yuanzi said, "at this time, I really don't have an appetite."

"Me too," Lan said.

Conan, Terahara Mari, Shibazaki Emiko and Yamada Katsumi also refused.

Seeing that the door of the private room opened and the forensic personnel who had already removed the gas mask came out, Yamazaki said with a smile: "You go first, I will go later."...
