Chapter 487 New Information Points
But what doesn't make sense is how the painting ended up in that room? And why did Qianzhu come to that room? Why would the murderer use the difficult-to-control silver wire mechanism to kill Qianzhu by taking advantage of their opening the door?
Also, when did Katsura Yuto get into that room?
"Why not?"
Suddenly someone spoke up, asking Ran Mouri a question. Conan stopped thinking and looked at the person.
He was Matsunaga Yuji, a disciple of Katsuyuki Ikuto.
He raised an eyebrow and spoke as if he knew the truth, "Isn't it possible that the teacher and that Jingmu had a sudden argument while chatting in the room, and then he killed the teacher in a fit of anger?"
"Then where did those daggers come from?" Officer Nakai calmly countered.
Matsunaga Yuji smiled, completely unfazed by the question. "Those daggers were all custom-made by the teacher. Didn't you notice that the daggers are the same as those in the painting?"
"To be honest, the teacher had planned to transform that room into his meditation room a long time ago. The painting 'Together We Perish' was the original he had placed in his collection room. It was moved to that room several months ago. However, the teacher felt that the collection room was a bit empty after the original was moved there, so he had someone make a copy and put it in the collection room."
"Therefore, there are now two copies and one original of 'Together We Endure' in this house."
His words caused many people's pupils to shrink slightly.
Katsura Tatsuko couldn't help but ask, "Then why didn't Dad tell me about this?"
"Because you interfere too much, the teachers get annoyed too," Matsunaga Yuji said with a slight sneer.
Sheng Youli and his son's breathing became slightly sluggish.
Although Katsumata Sayo had a lukewarm relationship with her father, she had frequent contact with her older sister. Upon hearing this, she glared at him angrily, "What nonsense are you spouting?! Who in this family doesn't know that Dad and my sister are the closest? Dad might find me annoying, but he wouldn't find my sister annoying, okay?! I think you're just obsessed with Kiyoki and that's why you're deliberately trying to sow discord between Dad and my sister!"
"you……!"
Matsunaga Yuji's expression didn't change at all, until he heard the name 'Kiyoki' from her mouth, at which point his face darkened and his gaze turned gloomy.
"Enough! This is not the time to argue!" Having failed to interrupt Katsumata Sayo's machine-gun-like incessant chatter, Katsumata Ryoutaro, who finally had a chance to speak up and stop her, pulled Matsunaga Yuji back.
Rikuto Ashida quickly tried to calm down Saya Katsumata, who was quite angry.
Katsunaga Yuji rolled his eyes and spat before joining his sister-in-law Katsunaga Mie in comforting Katsunaga Tatsuko.
Matsunaga Yuji stared at Katsumata Saya with a sinister look.
This brief farce taught Conan and his friends a new piece of information—
Qingmu.
Ran Mouri held her phone in her hand, her heart pounding with worry.
The screen on her phone was on the dial pad; the person she was dialing was Shinichi Kudo.
She was thinking to herself.
If it's Shinichi, then next, he might ask someone to inquire about 'Kiyoki', right?
Leaving the monitoring room, Ran Mouri took a deep breath, mustered her courage, and stepped towards Sayo Katsumata, quietly asking for her opinion, "Ms. Sayo Katsumata, I'd like to ask you some questions about 'Kiyok.' May we talk?"
Katsumasa Sayo looked at her for a few seconds and nodded. "Of course."
