Tang Ze's words made Manabe Iyama frown unconsciously: "You mean Haruko? What happened to her?"
"May I ask what is the relationship between you two?" Naoki Kamii had an intriguing smile on his face.
"We are friends." Manabe Iyama said a little unhappy when he saw Naoki Kamii's expression.
"Friend?" As the person who was secretly photographed, Naoki Kamii laughed when he heard his words.
"Young friend, is it not possible?" Manabe Iyama asked coldly when he heard Naoki Kamii's question.
"Absolutely." Seeing that Manabe Iyama was angry, Naoki Kamii stopped asking questions as he didn't want to ruin the conversation.
"Excuse me, where did you two meet?"
Seeing that Naoki couldn't continue his conversation, Tang Ze quickly changed the subject: "You are the executive director of this company, right? And she is just an ordinary university student. There is a big gap between your status."
"So what?" Manabe Iyama said unhappily, "It's my freedom to know whoever I want."
"Ah, don't get me wrong, I just want to know where and how you met." Tang Ze explained with a smile.
"We met at a dance."
Seeing that Tang Ze's attitude was not as sarcastic as the boy next to him, Manabe Iyama still said with an unhappy tone, "It's not some weird dance..."
"Ding-ling-ling~~"
Just when Manabe Iyama wanted to say something else, his cell phone suddenly rang.
"Sorry, I have to excuse myself for a moment."
Manabe Iyama said something to the two of them and walked out of the reception room.
After the door closed, Tang Ze and the other person drank tea and waited quietly for the other party to finish the call.
"ah!!"
Suddenly, a terrified scream was heard outside, which startled the two people who were still in the house.
The next moment, the two people who reacted immediately stood up and rushed out.
As soon as they left the reception room, they saw a person lying in the corridor not far away. They hurried forward to check the situation, and were shocked when they saw the person lying on the ground.
"Manabe Senior Manager?"
Tang Ze hurried forward to check the other party's physical condition, while Naoki Kamii on the side took out the criminal certificate to control the situation.
"What happened? Why did he suddenly fall down?" After handing over the ambulance, Naoki Kamii pulled the female employee next to him over to ask for details.
"I, I don't know either."
The female employee holding the folder shook her head hurriedly, and then told everything she had seen.
She was walking through the corridor with documents in her arms when she saw Executive Managing Director Manabe coming out of the reception room while talking on his cell phone.
As usual, he bowed slightly to the other party and was about to leave, and the other party nodded in return.
But at this moment, the other party suddenly showed a painful expression, and then the whole person slowly fell down.
"Acute illness?" Naoki Kamii couldn't help but frown when he heard that, but he couldn't think much about it. He could only follow Tang Ze's instructions to control the situation first to facilitate the arrival of the ambulance.
"Detective Karasawa, what's the situation?" After controlling the crowd and making way for them, Naoki Kamii came to Karasawa and asked.
"The situation is not good." Tang Ze shook his head and said, "My medical knowledge is not enough to determine what acute illness the other party has."
"Damn, this is too much of a coincidence. I finally found a clue related to Kitagami Haruko."
Naoki Kamii was a little impatient when he heard this: "Why hasn't the ambulance arrived yet..."
When Tang Ze heard what Naoki Kamii said, he suddenly remembered something and hurriedly searched for Manabe's coat.
Soon he found a small transparent medicine box in the other person's pocket.
This medicine box is made up of six small cubes, and the medicines contained in every two small cubes are the same medicine in terms of color and shape.
"Detective Tang Ze, this is..."
"Call an ambulance. There's a possibility of poisoning."
As Karasawa spoke, he pried open Manabe's eyes and examined them. "Sure enough, his pupils are dilated, consistent with atropine or other plant alkaloid poisoning!"
He was busy checking the other person's physical condition just now, and for a moment he didn't even think that it might be poisoning.
It was Naoki Kamii who inadvertently mentioned Haruko Kitagami, which reminded Tang Ze of the possibility of poisoning.
Naoki Kamii had already contacted the hospital and asked them to prepare corresponding measures.
But it was too late.
When the ambulance arrived, they were faced with a dead body that was no longer breathing.
In the end, Karasawa and Naoki Kamii could only ask for an ambulance with grim expressions to help take the body to the forensic department.
"So far, no external or internal injuries have been found that are closely related to the sound pickup. Initial judgment is that it may be sudden cardiac death caused by an unstable pulse."
The person standing next to Tang Ze and reporting at the moment is a young male forensic doctor. Asai Narumi is on vacation today because he just finished dealing with a troublesome corpse in Inspector Megure's case, so today's forensic doctor is his carefully trained deputy.
"Could the symptoms indicate atropine poisoning?" Tang Ze asked.
"Yes, and judging by his current symptoms, it's very likely atropine poisoning."
"Then please give priority to the toxicology test." Tang Ze said.
"I understand." The young forensic doctor nodded and immediately started to get busy.
"Detective Karasawa, what should we do now?" After walking out the door, Kamii Naoki asked, "Should we go find Kitagami Haruko?"
