Tang Ze first responded, using the "delay tactic", and then directly changed the subject: "Since we are here, let's go see the swimming pool where the crime occurred.
Maybe we can find clues about Mr. Duanwu's murder."
"That's true." Kogoro Mouri nodded and agreed with Karasawa's proposal.
“But it’s raining outside…”
As Mrs. Okuhira was saying this, she happened to see Kikuyo passing by the door carrying something, so she called out to her, "Did you just go out?"
"Well, the creamer for making coffee in the house just ran out, so I went to the nearby supermarket to buy some."
"Excuse me, but could you please prepare umbrellas for everyone and take them to the swimming pool?"
Mrs. Ou Ping took the shopping bag from the other person with a smile: "I'll take this."
"Okay, I understand."
Kikuyo still had that expressionless look on her face, and Mrs. Okudaira once again threw the troublesome matter away and took over the easy job.

"Ah, Eisuke-kun, be careful." Looking at Hondou Eisuke who fell to the ground, Xiaolan said worriedly.
"Really, how could I get confused in a place like this?" Kogoro Mouri held an umbrella with a speechless look on his face.
"Let's go back and change clothes first." Kikuyo suggested as she watched the scene. "I'll go ask Madam if she has any of the young master's clothes for you to change into."
"This is all I can do. I'm so sorry..." Hondou Eisuke got up from the ground, scratched his head and apologized embarrassedly.
