After greeting each other, Hondou Eisuke and Okuhei Kakuzo asked where Karasawa and the others planned to survey.
Kogoro Mouri thought about it and finally chose the living room where several people were watching the videotape at the time of the incident.
He planned to see with his own eyes whether it was just as the other party said, there was no way to go out without being seen by everyone.
"I understand. Segawa, can you take the two of you to the living room?" Okuhei Kakuzo looked at the butler and said.
"I understand, sir." Segawa bowed slightly.
"And Kikuyo, I'd like another cup of coffee." Okuhei Kakuzo looked at the housekeeper and said, "Oh, by the way, could you please ask the wife to come over here?
I want her to come over and help me organize the things in this study.
If you have finished your work, please come and help me sort it out. I also have something I want to discuss with you."
The two housekeepers nodded in agreement upon hearing this, indicating that they understood.
"Also, Segawa-kun, come here for a moment."
As Ohei Kakuzang spoke, he stretched out his hand and waited for the butler to approach him. He then grabbed the butler's ear and said in a low voice as if whispering, "How many times have I told you that you must knock before entering my room!
Why didn’t you tell the guests about this in advance, you piece of shit!!”
But unfortunately, he thought that his lowered voice would have no effect on people with sensitive hearing like Conan and Tang Ze.
After that, the group left the study. The corridor outside became darker and darker, and the dark sky made people feel a little depressed.
Butler Segawa remained silent along the way and led everyone towards the living room. Only when passing by the tea room did he convey Okudaira's words to Mrs. Okudaira.
"What? You said the master wants me to help him organize the books in his study? I don't want to!"
Mrs. Okuhira was full of resistance when she heard what Butler Laichuan said: "The master is always nitpicking.
If he encounters something that doesn't suit his taste, he'll complain non-stop, even though it's just a small detail that's completely insignificant."
"But, but... Madam..." Seeing Mrs. Okuhira's refusal, Butler Laichuan, who was caught in the middle, looked embarrassed.
"Stop talking, I'm not going."
Mrs. Opin refused again and said, “Just like before, I just wanted to open the package containing the large book, but he scolded me and told me not to move before he opened it.
I guess he asked me to come over because he wanted to change the partitions of the bookshelf to accommodate that large book, but he found that he had to move all the books on the bookshelf, so he asked me to help.
You were so enthusiastic when you yelled at me before, and now you want me to help you. I won’t do it.”
"But, but..." Butler Laichuan looked embarrassed in the middle.
When bosses fight like this, the people who are interposed and passing messages are undoubtedly the most uncomfortable.
Mrs. Aoping obviously understood his dilemma. After thinking for a moment, she stood up and said with a smile, "How about this? I'll take Mr. Mao and the others to the living room for you. You can go help the master tidy up his study."
"But... the master also asked me to maintain Master Duanwu's car..." Butler Laichuan hesitated.
"Hasn't that car been driven at all in the last two years?" Mrs. Opin was surprised and a little impatient. "Just leave it alone."
"But... Madam..."
But Mrs. Okudaira completely ignored Butler Laichuan and simply ignored his words. She came to Tang Ze and the others and said with a smile, "Okay, everyone, I'll take you to the living room."
"ha…"
Everyone looked at the enthusiastic Mrs. Okuhira and unconsciously walked forward. Looking at the embarrassed housekeeper Laichuan, she waved her hand and said with a smile: "Oh, cleaning the car and so on, we can talk about it when I'm free later. Please go to the study and help now~"
"I understand." As the saying goes, the situation is stronger than the person. Originally, he was the housekeeper and was responsible for the household work, so naturally, it was impossible for him to disobey the mistress's words.
In the end, you can only choose a world where you are hurt.
Led by Mrs. Oping, everyone went to the living room to check.
"This is where we watched the videotape that night."
Mrs. Oping said, "The other day, the master, two of the servants and I were watching the home video tape that my husband and I filmed when we traveled abroad last year.
Since I traveled a lot, I spent a good five hours watching it.”
"But why didn't your son watch the video with you and your wife that night?" asked Kogoro Mouri.
"I think he must be trying to avoid me."
Mrs. Ou Ping did not hide anything. "Because I am not Kanogo's biological mother. He is the son of my husband and his ex-wife."
"So that's how it is?" Kogoro Mouri nodded, a glimmer of understanding in his eyes.
When they were talking in the study before, he was a little surprised why Okuhei Kakuzo would suspect that other people in the house had killed his son, even including Mrs. Okuhei.
Now that I know that the other party is my stepmother, it seems reasonable.
However, the other party knew that they were here to investigate the case, but they spoke of these things very calmly, without the slightest worry.
"Didn't he tell you when you were talking?" Mrs. Auping smiled and said, "Is he now suspicious of one of us?"
"This..." Kogoro Mouri smiled awkwardly, feeling a little embarrassed.
Although Kogoro Mori did not speak, his attitude already revealed the answer.
