The live broadcast of Kamonohashi Ron has been postponed.
This is a common occurrence, and most netizens can understand it. Moreover, in the eyes of many netizens, Kamohashi Ron is a pure rich second generation, so it is normal for him to have urgent matters.
Kamohashi Ron lay beside the corpse.
"Excuse me, judging by your complexion, you must have died of poisoning. What kind of poison was it? Was it a biological toxin? It doesn't seem very common. It seems like the poison was intentional. It must have been painful to be poisoned. Was the poison indiscriminate or was it a planned attack? Is your death message really Liar? Judging by your hand, it should have been written backwards, but what message is written backwards?"
Kamonohashi Ron muttered beside the corpse for a long time before finally getting up. Amemiya asked him, "How's it going? Have you been able to identify the murderer?"
Kamonohashi Ron shook his head: "I think we might need to look at the deceased's social relationships."
"The deceased's social connections were simple. Most of his contacts were colleagues," Isshiki Totomaru said. He paused briefly before continuing, "But I imagine the World Detective League's employees have offended quite a few criminals."
"Kay has already sent me a list of the cases this guy has handled and the suspects he's involved in. There are indeed guys from Liar in the cases he's handled, but those two have very solid alibis."
"Why is there even a communication expert? Is he some strange creature? He just appears out of nowhere?" Isshiki Todumaru complained. "Why does it feel like he always appears in every strange incident?"
"Apart from these people, are there any other criminals? I also want to see the cases that the victim handled during his lifetime." Kamohashi Ron had a bad feeling. The World Detective League was very cooperative and packaged a file for Kamohashi Ron. The file contained all the cases that the victim had handled during his lifetime. Two of the cases caught Kamohashi Ron's attention.
"One is a case related to a doctor of biology. Ah... isn't this case the case related to your father that you mentioned, Dr. Goya?" Isshiki Totsumaru was a little shocked, and thought that if it was really a biological toxin made by Dr. Goya, then this case would be too devastating to his uncle.
The thing developed by the person who was saved with all his efforts and faked his death was still used as a murder weapon.
Kamohashi Ron shook his head, saying it had nothing to do with that: "The victim at the time proved Dr. Goya's innocence. If it was really a biological toxin developed by Dr. Goya, he would probably feel very guilty. What I care about is this -"
"The Phantom Beast Serial Murders... An Unsolved Case?!"

"This case happened shortly after Milo's coming-of-age ceremony. I don't think it's a coincidence," Kamonohashi said. "In fact, at one point, it was rumored that the murderer had been apprehended. However, after the case went to court, after rigorous argumentation by the lawyers and prosecutors, it was determined that none of the suspects were the murderer. The prosecutor in charge of this case was also Prosecutor Kazama."
"Ah? But Prosecutor Kazama..." Isshiki Totsumaru asked doubtfully, "I remember you said he was Miss Kazama Marie's brother, and that he disappeared after the Blood Internship Case ended five years ago."
"So we can go ask Miss Kazama Marie." Kamonohashi Ron said, "Anyway, let's go visit her home first, Toto."
"Eh? Where is her home?"
"It's always been at the place where we first met her. Come to think of it, that's where her roommate died."
"Did she move back in again?!" Isshiki Todumaru was a little shocked.
"Rather than saying that Ms. Kazama Marie moved back, it's more accurate to say that she's moved into several different houses," Kamohashi Ron said. "Maybe she's just gotten used to living there. Let's go ask her first; she's sure to have some information from that time."
Isshiki Todumaru was a bit surprised. Normally, even the closest of relationships wouldn't allow someone to see this kind of information, right? Even with his relationship with Lun, when Lun jokingly suggested he steal the Metropolitan Police Department files, Isshiki Todumaru refused.
Unless permitted by superiors or transferred using a detective license.
Is Prosecutor Kazama the type to show the information to his sister?
But the theory says that it must exist, which feels really strange.

"The Mythical Beast Serial Murder Case?" Mari Kazama was slightly shocked when she learned the purpose of Kamohashi Ron and Isshiki Totumaru's visit. "I do have information on this case, but I need to know why you're asking about it."
Isshiki Todumaru briefly explained the current case.
Kazama Mari was clearly surprised by this. "A member of the World Detective League was killed because they handled this case? But the problem is that this case itself is an unsolved case. If the killer doesn't have any evidence that is extremely detrimental to him, there's no reason for him to kill them, as that would expose him. And that killer...actually, he should be the type who prioritizes destroying evidence."
"Huh? How does Miss Kazama know so much? Could it be that you and your brother..." Isshiki Totsumaru was a little confused, "I thought you only had part of the information."
"Because my brother is very concerned about this case, I've done a lot of research," said Kazama Mari. "However, even with all this research, it's not certain I can help you. However, perhaps the suspects who handled the case at the time hold a grudge against that employee and are seeking revenge. Here's their information."
Isshiki Totomaru was a little surprised when he got the information: "Lun, I think I saw a familiar surname."
Moriarty at the back was too conspicuous, but Isshiki Todomaru was not familiar with the name, "Eli Moriarty?"
"That's Milo's younger brother." Kamohashi Ron said, "Milo should have another younger brother named Theo Moriarty."
"I understand quite well, Lun," said Isshiki Todumaru.
"Because Alice, not Milo, was the prime suspect in the Blood Trainee case," Kamonohashi said, "I did a lot of research... But Alice was a formidable opponent, leaving no loopholes. So I thought I'd look for clues on less formidable individuals, and that's how I found them."
Then, Kamohashi Ron seemed to have thought of something.
"Wait, I remember now... Alice's mother seemed to have called herself a Chimera because of her illness."
"Isn't that the legendary phantom beast?" Kazama Mari said, "There's no way the murderer in this unsolved case is Alice's mother. The superb concealment techniques used in the Tokyo Phantom Beast Murders don't seem like those of a sickly person."
266
Kamonohashi Ron also denied Kazama Mari's speculation: "Alice's mother had already passed away during that period. When Alice was one year old, five years ago, after I found out about this, I have been very concerned about one thing."
Isshiki Todumaru: "What's the matter?"
"Why on earth did she keep thinking about my father, and in the end she blamed him for not saving him?" Kamohashi Ron said, "Her husband was shot by the detective because of his own fault, and she and my father had barely met...Ms. Sophie fell in love with my father completely on her own, and then inexplicably began to hate him."
"I'm sorry, Ms. Sophie, what I mean is..."
"Alice's mother's name."
Kazama Jasmine rarely interrupted, "I might have some say in this. Sometimes a person's feelings come out of nowhere, leaving the person confused and distressed."
"Oh, right." Isshiki Totsumaru also remembered at this time that the reason for Kazama Marie's self-defense was because of her roommate. However, "I clearly remember that when we were taking the statement, Ms. Kazama seemed to say that people like this often have some psychological trauma, so it's normal for them to rely on you?"
"That's what I mean," said Kazama Marie. "To put it simply, I can't rule out the possibility that Ms. Sophie is mentally ill—I mean, mentally ill in the physical sense."
Kamo no Bridge Theory: "..."
Isshiki Totomaru: "..."
Although Kazama Mari's reasoning seemed unethical, it convinced both Kamohashi Ron and Isshiki Totomaru.
As if sensing the stagnant atmosphere, Kazama Marie glanced at Kamonohashi and said, "You're not becoming a relationship anchor just because you can't figure out Sophie's situation. Look around for similar examples... I guess most of them have some mental issues. But it's also strange that, according to you, Kamonohashi-kun, since she was willing to give birth to five children for another man, she doesn't really love your father that much."
"I know about this kind of thing."
"Are we getting off topic?" Isshiki Todumaru reminded him, "We weren't supposed to be talking about the mythical beast murder case. So, was it Chimera who initially committed the crime?"
267
Kazama Mari denied this, saying, "That's not the reason. If you insist, it's a bit like the Baswell Hound case. The victims were attacked by large beasts, and at the time, there were rumors of chimeras at work in the area. But I don't see the difference. After all, lions were used to commit the crime."
"Ah? But is it possible? Using a beast like this?" Isshiki Totsumaru was a little shocked. "I only know that some ferocious hunting dogs might be able to bite off a person's neck after training."
Kazama Jasmine sighed, "This is the most puzzling part of the case. How did the murderer use the lion?"
"I heard that Prosecutor Kazama even visited the circus?" asked Kamohashi Ron.
Kazama Mari nodded. "But most circus lions are generally tame and don't hurt people. The only one that did hurt someone was because it sneezed due to stress from something like pepper, which ruined the performance. But the last time the lion attacked someone, it was subdued and euthanized by the police and detectives. No similar signs were found during the inspection."
