Chapter 13
The two of them were very happy.
Yeyue returned to the Japanese-style room as if nothing had happened and had dinner with everyone. Katsuhiko Minagawa, who had failed to pretend to be a fork and ran out to buy beer, had also returned and was drinking alone.
Conan was eating when he suddenly felt someone touching his hand.
"Huh? Who's touching my hand?"
Conan was about to look down, but as soon as he turned his head, a muscular man "attacked" him while calling Xiaolan's name. This scene made everyone in the Japanese-style room dumbfounded.
Yeyue was overjoyed. Here it comes. I've been waiting for this scene for a long time!
Wakamatsu Toshihide found that he was holding Conan instead of Xiaolan, so he let go immediately and turned his head to vomit. Conan was also disgusted and retched to the other side.
This bastard... did he want to sneak attack Xiaolan just now? How ridiculous!
Xiaolan was stunned, and Sonoko's eyes were as bright as big light bulbs, "Lan, Mr. Wakamatsu seemed to want to kiss you just now!"
Xiaolan naturally saw this kind of thing, and her attitude towards Wakamatsu changed from indifference to disgust.
...
After lunch, everyone chatted in the Japanese-style room until two o'clock in the afternoon, when Mrs. Minagawa came over with a tray full of cups, smiling and shouting, "Coffee is here~"
"Come on, everyone drink some coffee, there is cake in the back, I will bring it over."
The cake has not been cut yet, Xiaolan offered to help, "Auntie, let me divide the cake, you have been busy for so long and it's too hard, take a break and have a cup of coffee first."
Mrs. Minagawa did not object, after all, the antidote was put into the cake when it was made, and whoever cuts the cake will not affect the result. "Then I'll trouble you. Come on, everyone, have some coffee." So she took the lead and started drinking.
Xiaolan began to share the cake. Originally, Katsuhiko Minagawa didn't eat sweets, but Yeyue cast a [Want to Eat Sweets] effect on everyone except Mrs. Minagawa. In an instant, everyone felt that the cake on the table became extremely tempting.
"Hurry up! I can't wait to eat the cake!" Sonoko urged impatiently.
"And me! And me!" Guan Guxiang and Watanabe Yomi urged at the same time.
Xiaolan quickly cut the cake for them, swallowing her saliva. She herself felt incredible: Strange, why do I want to eat cake so much? Is it because this cake looks so delicious?
I really want to... I really want to eat it all!
Everyone who got the cake ate it crazily. Conan felt that this was the most delicious cake he had ever eaten since he was a child. It was like a hungry person eating a meal or a thirsty person drinking water. It was a kind of spiritual satisfaction and he couldn't stop at all.
Damn! How could it be so delicious? Did they add something strange to the cake?
Gulp gulp... Damn it! I must investigate it after I finish eating, gulp gulp...
Soon everyone was wolfing down a small plate of cake, and Mrs. Minagawa was stunned. Because things were beyond her expectations, even Katsuhiko Minagawa was stuffing the cake into his mouth one bite at a time.
What's going on? Doesn't Katsuhiko not eat sweets? Why is he eating so enthusiastically now?
Damn it, it seems that I can only wait for the next opportunity to poison...
"Wow~ It's so delicious! So satisfying!"
"Yes, I have never eaten such a delicious cake!"
After everyone finished eating the cake, they even licked the plate clean, and everyone had a comfortable expression on their faces.
"Auntie, your cooking skills are great... Oh, no, we finished the cake and forgot to leave a portion for you, auntie."
Mrs. Minagawa wanted to say it was okay, but the next second she suddenly reacted and widened her eyes in fear.
The cake is gone?
Shit! That's not a cake, it's an antidote! You ate it all and didn't leave any for me?
With a "bang!", the coffee cup fell to the ground, and Mrs. Minagawa couldn't calm down, "No, no?"
"Yes... no... I'm so sorry, because the cake you made is so delicious."
At this moment, I don't know if it was a psychological effect, Mrs. Minagawa felt stiff all over, cold sweat on her back, and even breathing became difficult. She fell back to the ground and begged painfully, "Help... I don't want to die yet, hurry up, give me atropine! I want atropine!"
Everyone was stunned and didn't understand what was going on.
"Atropine? What atropine?"
"Aunt, don't scare me, what's wrong with you?"
Mrs. Minagawa was so frightened that she couldn't even...
The crime was not concealed, "Coffee... coffee is poisonous, the atropine in the cake is the antidote... Save me! Save me!"
When this was said, everyone was shocked.
Conan took a breath and was the first to understand the cause and effect of the matter. He quickly shouted: "Call an ambulance!"
However, Yeyue came out and said to Conan: "Ah wait, there is no need to call an ambulance, because she is not poisoned, just call the police."
Conan looked at Yeyue in surprise, "How do you know she is not poisoned?"
Yeyue's answer was beyond everyone's expectations, "Because the poison was taken away by me a long time ago."
"What? The poison was taken away by you?" Everyone looked at Yeyue with a ghostly look.
Even Mrs. Minakawa, who was lying on the ground, was stunned.
"That's right, there is no poison in the coffee we drink." Yeyue took out two glass bottles from his pocket and explained: "I have taken the real poison. The poison I left in the kitchen is fake. This bottle is dichlorvos, an organophosphorus pesticide used as poison, and this bottle is atropine that can detoxify organophosphorus pesticides."
When Mrs. Minakawa saw the two bottles in Yeyue's hand, she was completely confused.
When did this young man named Yeyue switch the things? How could I not know in the kitchen?
The things are in his hands, which means that there is really no poison in the coffee? I am not poisoned?
Yuanzi was overjoyed, "So we are not poisoned either?"
Yeyue nodded and emphasized again, "You are not poisoned. Mrs. Minakawa only added tap water mixed with honey to the coffee." Seeing that Yeyue even brought out the evidence, everyone believed what Yeyue said.
Conan stared at Yeyue, his face full of disbelief.
"Yeyue... Brother, how did you predict that Mrs. Minakawa wanted to poison in advance?" Conan couldn't understand. Now, if Mrs. Minagawa hadn't taken the initiative to say it, even I didn't notice that there was a problem, how could Yeyue notice it in advance?
Does Yeyue know more than me?
"Didn't I go to the bathroom before? When I came back, I went into the kitchen because I was bored, and I accidentally found two bottles of liquid in the cupboard. One bottle was labeled with dichlorvos, and the other was labeled with atropine."
Yeyue claimed that if he found one of these two things somewhere else, he wouldn't feel strange, but these two things appeared in the kitchen together, and he, who had read countless detective novels, immediately realized that something was wrong!
"I saw that there were extra bottles in the kitchen, so I used those bottles to fill water and exchanged them with the two glass bottles."
