"Eh hey hey?? Sister Solana? Mr. Amuro?"
Edogawa Conan was completely bewildered, not knowing what was going on. He didn't know if Amuro Toru had seen what he was about to do, and...
He blinked and looked at the hand that not only covered his watch-shaped tranquilizer gun tightly but also covered the sight. He was a little confused as to how things turned out like this.
The most important thing is, where on earth did these two come from?!
Why is there no sound at all?
Did you eat the sound of your own footsteps?!
He mentally raged, but in reality, he couldn't utter a word except for a dry laugh. He could only pretend to be dumb, listening to Toru Amuro and Solana asking, "Huh? What are you doing, Conan?" on one hand, and "Nothing, Mr. Amuro, aren't you going to help Mr. Mori investigate the case?" on the other.
"Ah, I believe that with Mr. Maori's ability, this kind of case can be solved quickly."
So naturally, there is no need for his help.
As Amuro Toru spoke, he did not straighten up immediately. Instead, he raised his head slightly in this position and looked at Hoshino Aoi. There was a hint of innocence in his round puppy eyes.
As for his malicious cuteness, Hoshino Aoi took advantage of the fact that Conan Edogawa couldn't see it and secretly glared at Toru Amuro.
"Be careful! You're so close to the anesthetic needle, aren't you afraid of getting pricked in the eye?"
Amuro Toru blinked, still looking innocent, as if he didn't see the accusation in her eyes at all. Hoshino Aoi was both angry and amused by this, and in the end she could only glare at him secretly without saying anything.
Seeing this, Toru Amuro frowned and stopped looking at Aoi Hoshino. Instead, he lowered his eyes and once again focused his gaze on Conan Edogawa.
This made Edogawa Conan, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, suddenly become nervous again.
"Ah... that... that... the cover of the watch seems to be broken, hehe... hehehe..."
He laughed dryly, while his brain was working rapidly.
"By the way...did Sister Solana notice anything?"
Edogawa Conan looked as if he suddenly thought of something, turned his head to look at Hoshino Aoi who was standing behind him, and lowered his arm that was originally raised and put it behind his back.
Hoshino Aoi did not stop him. Seeing that he put his hands behind his back, as if he didn't want Amuro Toru to notice the watch on his wrist, Hoshino Aoi straightened her slightly bent waist and attracted Amuro Toru's attention back to herself.
"Oh, yes, since Ms. Solana is also a well-known detective, you should have some opinions on today's case, right? Why not share them?"
Toru Amuro was very satisfied with the result of today's test. Seeing that Conan Edogawa's face was not very good, he did not continue to scare the young detective in front of him. Instead, he followed Hoshino Aoi's instructions, straightened his back, and smiled softly at her.
"Well... I do have some opinions."
Hoshino Aoi reached out her hand and casually patted Edogawa Conan's head, trying to calm his nervous mood, and continued:
"I noticed you used ice when making the cold noodles, so is it possible that the murderer's method of committing the crime involved ice?"
Her words obviously gave the people at the scene a new idea. Except for Toru Amuro and Conan Edogawa, who already knew the murderer's modus operandi, everyone else couldn't help but think about what she said.
"If that's the case..."
Officer Yokomizo imagined the scenario in his mind as he spoke:
"Could it be that a large amount of ice was first piled up inside the vase? As long as it's on one side, even if the vase is placed in the corner of the bookshelf, just about to fall, it won't fall. But once the ice melts and turns into liquid, the vase will lose its balance and fall off the bookshelf."
"But……"
Maori Kogoro was the first to raise the question:
"If we put the ice in something and bring it in, anyone would find it, right?"
"No."
Amuro Toru said:
“You can carry it even if you have nothing in your hands.”
His rebuttal made Kogoro Mori and Officer Yokomizo look at him.
He had the same smile on his face as always, but his eyes were slightly sharper, making him look quite sharp.
"While we were making the cold noodles, the three of them were still wearing their tennis uniforms and hadn't changed their clothes."
As he spoke, he looked at Taoyuan Qinyin and the others:
"Generally speaking, men's tennis pants have pockets that are specially made large to fit tennis balls. Women's tennis attire is the same, with a skirt having pockets large enough to fit a tennis ball."
He did not say that this guess must be correct, nor did he rashly point out who the murderer was or what method he used. He just raised some questions about what Kogoro Mouri said, as if he was just following their thoughts. Although it seemed that he said a lot, he actually did not express his own thoughts at all.
"But even if the vase could really fall off the bookshelf by itself, there's no way to move the body to the door, right?"
Obviously, no one present noticed this, and Kogoro Mori raised questions at the first moment.
