Chapter 2019: Meeting with Opin


   Sunday, January 6th, Opei House, 3chome, Muidocho.
   After Maori rang the doorbell, a slightly plump middle-aged maid came out with a blank expression. She walked to the courtyard gate and asked through the iron fence, "Excuse me, who are you looking for?"
   "Ah, hello, this is Detective Kogoro Mouri, and I have an appointment with Mr. Okhei Kakuzo."
   "It turned out to be Mr. Mori, what about them?" The middle-aged maid looked at other people
   Maori quickly said, "These two are my assistants..."
   "I am Yamazaki."
   "This is Eisuke Hondō."
   Maori continued: "These two don't care about them."
   Conan immediately raised his triangular eyes. What does this mean? Does he want to stay outside?
   "Then three, please come in." The middle-aged maid opened the door to welcome the guests.
   Conan was the first to jump out, but was held by Yamazaki. Yamazaki had expected it.
   "Let me down." Conan struggled.
   "Lan, he will leave it to you." Yamazaki gave Conan to Ran.
   Lan hugged Conan, "Conan, don't make trouble, we'll wait outside."
   "I don't..." Conan struggled free.
   Yamazaki is speechless, how old is this guy, or maybe he took advantage on purpose?
"Snapped!"
   Maori slammed Conan hard. The pain made Conan tearful, but it also calmed Conan. He pouted and stared at Maori with a grievance.
   "Dad, what are you doing!"
   "Anyway, Lan, show me this kid."
   Conan watched the Maori three enter, but he could only be outside, depressed and extremely depressed.
  ……
   Everyone entered the house, passed the vestibule, and entered the house.
   With the sound of the door opening, the voice of a middle-aged and elderly woman came over, along with the sound of footsteps.
   "Kuyo, who is here."
   "Ma'am, it's a Maori detective invited by the master."
   The door was wide open, and there was a middle-aged woman in the hallway. Judging from her well-maintained face, she should have been a big beauty when she was young.
   "Yeah..." Mrs. Oping looked at everyone with a surprised expression.
  Mori was very happy and was about to receive a welcome. Unexpectedly, Mrs. Oping went to the main hall, and suddenly felt that it seemed a mistake to bring him.
   "You are Yingyou, right?"
   "Yes, hello madam."
   Mrs. Oping took the Hondō Eiyu and looked left and right, "I haven't seen you for so many years. It's great that you have grown up like this."
   Hondō Eiyu was very moved, "Thank you Madam for your concern, I'm fine."
   "Come, talk to me, how have you lived for so many years."
"what?"
  Mouri finally cut in, "Um, I'm Detective Kogoro Mouri."
   "Huh?" Mrs. Oping apologized, covering her mouth, "I'm sorry, I forgot all of them. I'm really sorry. I haven't seen Yingyou for many years. It was really rude just now."
   "It's okay." What can Maori say.
   "Chrysanthemum, you take them there." Madam Opin ordered.
   "Yes, ma'am, please follow me."
   Mrs. Okudai introduced to Eisuke Hondō, "She is the Kikuyo Tabata who takes over your mother to work. Although she is unsmiling, she is a very gentle person."
   Hondo Eiyu scratched his head, "Well, ma'am, can I go to meet with Mr. Maori, I'm actually an intern at a Maori detective agency."
   "Are you a detective? Okay, let's go together." Mrs. Opin agreed, but her tone was a little sad at the end.
   At this time, a tall butler came out, and the main hall Yingyou took the initiative to say hello, "Long time no see, Mr. Butler still has nothing to change."
   Mrs. Opei smiled and introduced: "Eiyu, this is Chiro Segawa, and you know his brother."
   "Hello, my brother died in a car accident in two years." Chiro Segawa was also expressionless.
   Yamazaki shook his head secretly. This family is really different and likes this poker face.
"This way, please."
   Under the leadership of the housekeeper Chiro Segawa, everyone went to the study together and met the owner of this family, Oping Kakuzo, a short, middle-aged man. He was sorting the bookshelves, and the underground was full of books.
   Mrs. Opei pushed Hondō Eiyu forward, "Husband, who do you think this is?"
   "This is, ah, I remember you, your name is..." Oping Jiaozang couldn't remember his name for a while.
   "This is Eiyu Hondō, sir, it's been a long time since I saw you." Eiyu Hondō said.
   "Yes, it's Yingyou," Oping Kakuzo exclaimed, "Your mother is a good maid, very clever, always smiling."
   The maid Tatabata Kikudai was expressionless, "I'm sorry, I'm clumsy and cold."
  Ohira Kakuzo said with a smile: "No, no, I didn't mean that."
   "Well, that, I am Maori..."
   "Oh, by the way, Kikuyo, go and prepare coffee to serve guests. It's in the living room. It's messy now. It's really not a place for guests."
   "Yes, ma'am."
   "Husband, this is the detective Kogoro Mouri, and Eisuke and this are his assistants."
   Mrs. Opin interrupted Maori and introduced herself.
   "Ah, you are a Maori detective. Sorry, I miss you far."
   "Where and where."
After Oping Kakuzo shook hands with Maori, he asked Maori to go to the living room, and he held the housekeeper Chiro Segawa’s ear and asked him to lower his head, "How many times have I told you that you must knock on the door before entering my room? Just broke in? You fool."
   "I'm sorry, I must pay attention next time." The housekeeper Chiro Segawa said painfully. ...
   After a while, the living room.
  Ohira Kakuzo invited Mori to take the seat, and Yamazaki and Eisuke Hondō stood behind him.
  Coffee came up, Mrs. Oping helped to offer it, and then left, "You talk slowly, I will be separated first, Yingyou, you wait and find me."
   "Yes, ma'am." Hondō Eiyu responded.
   When Mrs. Oping left the study, Oping Kakuzo sighed, "Ah, Yongko has not recovered from the death of Kayou."
   Maori asked, "Mr. Oping, what happened to the death of Master Ling?"
   "You two don't need to be here, please help me clean up the study when you have time, and call the madam by the way."
"Yes."
   Okahira Kakuzochi left the housekeeper Chiro Segawa and the maid Kikuyo Tabata, and then told Mori about the incident.
   From 7 to 12 that night, the four of them, Mr. and Mrs. Ohei Kakuzo and Mr. and Mrs. Ohei Keiko, the housekeeper Kirou Segawa and the maid Kikuyo Tabata, had been watching videos in the living room.
   To be precise, the housekeeper Chiro Segawa and the maid Kikudai Tabata accompanied the couples Okuhei Kakuzo and Okuhei Keiko.
  Opira’s son, Oppira Takago was drowned in his swimming pool between nine and ten that night.
   The reason why he was drowned is because Oping Taiwu had his hands tied behind his back, his feet were also tied, and his mouth was stuck with tape. It was obviously homicide.
  Ohei Kakuzo went and brought the photos taken at that time, and there was also a video in which was Ohei Taigo who was tied up, curled up on the swimming pool floor.
   Hondō Eiyuqi said, "This is really too much."
   Yamazaki asked, "How did you find him?"
  Ohira Kakuzo said, "That was the next morning. Kikudai found out what seemed to be in the swimming pool, so he drained the water in the pool and found him."
   Yamazaki asked, "Does she have the right to do this?"
   "What?" Oping Kokura did not react.
   "The water in the swimming pool is worth a lot of money." Yamazaki said, "Can Ms. Kikudai let it go without your consent?"
  Ohira Kakuzo said, "No, she came to call us, and then we let her dry the pond. To be honest, Yongko fainted and the blow was too big."
   Hondō Eiyu asked, "So, where should Brother Forge should be that night?"
  Ohira Kakuzo said: "It should be in his bedroom, I don't know the specifics."
   Maori asked, "Then, do you know, does your son have a grudge with anyone?"
  Oping Jiaozang shook his head, "I don't know if there is any outside, but I do."
   Hondō Eiyu was surprised, "Could it be Mr. Butler and Ms. Kikudai? You suspect that one of them killed Brother Kagou while going to the bathroom from the living room."
   "No, I'm sure no one was out of the living room at the time, because there were toilets there, and the windows were too small to allow them to climb out. I'll show you."
  Ohei Kakuzo took the three Maori to the living room and pointed out the location of the four at the time.
   "Although I am sitting in front and cannot see them behind me, I will know if the only door is open," Kakuzo Oppai said, "I'm sure this door was closed at the time."
   "Then why do you suspect the housekeeper Chiro Segawa and the maid Kikuyo Tatabata?" Maori looked at the living room, "If there are no secrets here, they will have sufficient alibi."
  Ohira Kakuzo shook his hand, "How could there be such a thing?"
   Yamazaki asked, "Then you suspect, who did they collude with?"
   "Yes, that's it." Oping Kokura said coldly, "On the one hand, the prisoner gathers us and creates a perfect alibi for the prisoner. On the other hand, he finds someone to come in and kill my son."
   "It makes sense." Mori thought, "In other words, you want me to investigate the housekeeper Kirou Segawa and the maid Kikuyo Tabata, who is the prisoner."
   "Maybe all." Oping Jiaozang said viciously.
   Yamazaki frowned and said, "What hate is there between you?"
"Please take a good look at the photo here," Oping Kokzo pointed out the photo, "Jing Wu wears white gloves on his right hand. It was exactly two years ago today, the former housekeeper who died when the car fell from the cliff. Gloves often worn when driving."
   Maori asked: "Are you sure? White gloves don't tell who it belongs to?"
Oping Kakuzo said: "I'm sure, just three days after Duanwu passed away, the glove of the left hand was also found in my study~EbookFREE.me~ So it turns out that it is because of the death of the former housekeeper that he has a grudge against you. Maori pondered, "But wasn't the former housekeeper's death due to an accident?"
   "It was an accident, and the police have confirmed it," Oping Jiaozang gritted his teeth. "It's just, maybe they don't believe it was an accident."
   "They?" Maori asked, "Apart from the current housekeeper, Chiro Segawa, who else do you suspect is related to the incident?"
  Ohira Kakuzo said, "It's the maid Kikudai Tabata. She is the wife of the former housekeeper."
   Yamazaki couldn't laugh or cry, "You really dare to use them."
  Oping Kakuzo cut his teeth and said: "I was looking at the former housekeeper's sake. I originally wanted to help them financially. Who ever thought they would avenge revenge!"
"By the way, will the second white glove be a murder declaration?" Hondō Eiyu said, "The prisoner thought that the accident was caused by you and Brother Jinwu, so he put the gloves of the former housekeeper on Brother Jinwu. Hand, then killed him, and then left another glove in your study, meaning that the next one, it is your turn, sir."
   "Idiot, the time has passed so long, the prisoner had to do it long ago." Maori taught, "The second white glove means that the two gloves belong to the former housekeeper, which means that the prisoner is avenging the former housekeeper."
   "No, no," Oping Kakuzo shook his head, "I did what you thought at first, but today, the Maori detective, I suddenly became a little worried."
   Yamazaki asked: "Because of time?"
   "Yes," Kakuzo Ohei nodded, "The accident happened on the same day, so the Maori detective..."
   Needless to say, Maori already knows what to say, so he patted his chest and smiled: "No problem, I will do my best to ensure your safety."...
