Chapter 996: Another Murder in a Secret Room



"What's wrong with the ring on Mr. Moroguchi's hand?" Takagi looked at Moroguchi Yoshiki with confusion. "What's wrong with the ring?"

"I heard that the ring is the ring that represents Mr. Morokuchi's hundred books. There are many gemstones inlaid on the front, and the word "100th" is engraved on the ring."

Conan explained, pointing to the ring: "But look, the word '100th' on the ring is upside down."

"Oh... so that's how it is..."

Gao Mu was amazed and his face flushed, obviously embarrassed by his reaction just now. He quickly asked, "But maybe he put the ring on the wrong way around."

"That's unlikely."

Tang Ze on the side shook his head and said, "Don't forget what Conan and Xiaolan said before, that Mr. Zhukou is a very neurotic person.

It's hard to imagine that a man who threw a magazine at the face of his editor-in-chief, a woman, because his name was enlarged by 0.1 mm would wear his ring inside out.

Given his sensitivity to fonts, he shouldn’t have made such a mistake.”

"Ah, so this is indeed a murder case!!"

But he did not refute it immediately. Although the motive was wrong, it was not important at the beginning of the investigation. The main thing was to turn the case around from suicide.

So he looked at the three suspects standing nearby and asked, "Excuse me, in your opinion, has Mr. Zhukou ever taken off his ring?"

"Ah... this..."

After hearing this, Miss Anabuki thought for a moment and said, "Because Mr. Morokuchi said he really likes this ring, so he never takes it off even when he takes a bath or goes to bed."

"If that's the case, then this is a murder case."

Tang Ze set the tone for the case, looking at the solemn faces of the crowd, and said in a deep voice: "And it was a murder in a closed room!"
