Chapter 1131: Across the River, Still Singing Good Death Meow~
"But this is just my guess."
Reiko Akita asked Fujino, "I heard that she has woken up by the river. Didn't the police go to question her?"
"She is indeed awake."
Fujino flipped through the small notebook: "But... because the shock wave of the explosion injured her head, now she seems to have lost all her memories. This is what the police manual in my hand says."
“Amnesia…?”
"Well, that's normal. After all, she was very close to the explosion."
Fujino explained to her, "She was standing with her back against the wall, and when the explosion happened, the back of her head hit the wall directly. It's a blessing in disguise that she didn't die from it. It's good enough that she just lost her memory."
As he spoke, he took out an evidence bag and showed it to Akiba Reiko: "If there is anything else, it's this. This was found at the scene. It is very likely a clue left by the murderer who wants to commit serial crimes."
"The...body of the flute?"
Reiko Akiba looked at a piece of flute in the evidence bag, her expression suddenly changed, her eyes dodged to the side, as if something in her memory was triggered, and she fell into deep thought.
"Did you remember anything?"
"No."
Fujino narrowed his eyes and noticed this. Akita Reiko responded, then took out a thermos cup from her bag beside her, unscrewed the cap and took a sip as if to calm herself down. "I just remembered something that has nothing to do with this matter."
"is it?"
Fujino didn't ask any further questions after hearing this.
After taking a look at her profile, he suddenly reminded her, "If you want to drink tea, it's best to use a transparent thermos cup with a lock. After all, this kind of thermos cup is not very safe."
"Unsafe?"
"Ah."
Fujino groaned. "And I suggest you smell it before drinking it to see if there is any strange smell, such as almond smell or something like that."
"Why?"
"It's easy to be poisoned."
Akiba Reiko was a little confused when she heard this, but Fujino crossed his arms and explained calmly, "As long as the murderer took advantage of the opportunity when you were not watching your bag, he could directly put poison or strong sulfuric acid in your thermos, and your life or voice would be in danger."
"And your hairstyle is pretty dangerous."
As Fujino said this, he looked at the single braid that was tied around her shoulder, which was unique to anime wives.
She always felt that a pair of big hands would come down and squeeze her into blood foam in the next second.
(Analysis of the joke: Dangerous wife hairstyle. In anime, people with this hairstyle usually have a bad ending, either getting cancer or being transported to another world. The mother of the legendary clown Allen in Attack on Titan had this hairstyle, and then it was twisted off and eaten by the giant.)
"what……?"
Reiko Akiba was stunned for a moment while holding the lid of the thermos.
No, the person is drinking tea. What method are you thinking of using to kill him?
And what about the hairstyle? What’s dangerous about it?
Can you please not be too outrageous?
Reiko Akiba was speechless. She looked down at the warm tea in her hand and suddenly felt unable to drink it.
"Sorry, it's a professional habit."
Fujino smiled awkwardly and explained, "If someone poisons your thermos cup out of jealousy, it will be too late by the time you get poisoned..."
As he spoke, he recalled: "After all, there was once a male singer who had mercury put in his coffee and became mute as a result of the poison."
"Um...thank you for your reminder?"
Reiko Akiba didn't know what to say.
I seem to want to thank the other party for the reminder?
After all, it seems that what this detective said is quite right.
Thinking this in her mind, she carefully put her nose close to the cap of the thermos.
I sniffed my tea and it didn't have any strange smell.
I checked again and there was nothing strange inside.
Only then did she dare to continue drinking.
Fujino: "..."
No, you've already taken a sip, what's the point of smelling it again?
Fujino complained in his heart, somewhat puzzled by the aunt's inexplicably cautious behavior.
Looking at the aunt, she doesn't look like a fool...
Why are you still doing stupid things?
Maybe I was distracted by my late husband's matter just now.
Fujino nodded secretly, feeling certain about this.
As a man who lives on the wall, he knew very well the little secret that Reiko Akiba did not tell - she must be remembering her deceased fiancé.
My late husband was a flute player, and the signal left at the explosion site was a flute signal.
This immediately reminded Reiko Akiba of her late husband.
Speaking of my late husband, his death was not entirely an accident. He died in a driving accident after being instigated by someone to drink.
The two who were killed in the explosion were the instigators.
Although the traffic accident was caused by drinking, the group of people who encouraged drinking are certainly also to blame.
At least that's what Reiko Akiba thought.
So now, she hates them to the core and is not very willing to cooperate with the police investigation. There are certain reasons for this.
Of course, it is also possible that Megure and the others really are harassing him over and over again and he is fed up with it.
In fact, if you think about it, the fact that Reiko Akiba is even willing to cooperate with the police investigation shows that she is a good person.
After all, in this damn place called the science world, if you just throw away some garbage, it might be noticed by some unknown person, and then be killed after a careful plan, thus becoming TV material for some death squad.
Encouraging someone's fiancé to drink and causing his death, this motive for murder is simply too reasonable.
Now I am just singing the song of "Good Death Meow" across the river.
It's already pretty good that he didn't go up and kill alone.
As for the relationship between Akiba Reiko's fiancé and this case...
"Hey, what is this?"
While Fujino was thinking, Genta came over and pointed at the teacup in Akiba Reiko's hand and asked curiously: "What are you drinking?"
"Tea."
Reiko Akiba raised her eyes and saw four children appear in front of her. She responded, and then Yuan Tai asked excitedly: "Can you give me some to drink?!"
"..."
"Da Mei."
"How stingy!"
Reiko Akiba's cold refusal caused Yuantai to complain, and then she quickly tightened the teacup and put it away, fearing that this brat would steal some of it.
Well done!
Fujino gave Akiba a thumbs up for not pampering the little brat at all.
Compared to Yuantai, Mitsuhiko is obviously much more polite: "Is there any ingredient in this tea that can protect the throat?"
"Does it have anything to do with you?"
Reiko Akita responded with a cold face, saying that she couldn't do anything with the little ones.
The few kids who were turned down were a little dissatisfied, but they did not give up. After all, they came here with their own little ideas.
Ayumi's eyes whirred as she continued, "Since this is a tea that protects your throat, drinking it will surely help you win the singing competition!"
"Uh-huh."
Mitsuhiko nodded: "If our voices can be in the best condition, we will definitely win the choir competition!"
"Choir competition?"
A puzzled look appeared on Reiko Akiba's face.
Seeing this, Mitsuhiko quickly took over the conversation: "Yes, our elementary school is going to hold a chorus competition between classes!"
"By the way, can you teach us how to sing?"
"what?"
Reiko Akiba was puzzled when she heard this, and was stunned by the direct tactics of these little ones. Mitsuhiko continued to follow up: "Our class has agreed to practice in the school's music classroom at two o'clock the day after tomorrow!"
Ayumi agreed, "Sister Xiaolan also agreed to play the piano accompaniment for us!"
Yuan Tai took over the conversation: "But there is a big problem with the person who taught us to sing."
"Hey, you little brats!"
Yuanzi, who was not far away, pricked up his ears and heard a few little ones seeming to be saying bad things about him.
Immediately, the person who had a big problem rushed to the battlefield, looking unfriendly, and said:
"Really……"
"Who are you saying has a problem?"
Yuantai suddenly felt a chill on his back. He turned around and looked at Yuanzi's angry face and blurted out "tiger". Then he realized what he had said and broke out in a cold sweat.
"Huh, Tigress?!"
Yuanzi was stunned for a moment, then came to her senses and immediately put her hands on her waist in a rage:
"Who are you calling a tigress? Am I violent?!"
"Besides, who do you think has a problem? I'm a volunteer. Do volunteers understand?"
"What does volunteering mean..."
“Volunteer means volunteer!”
Haibara Ai:"……"
So, is it really okay for you to make such noise in a quiet concert hall?
I'm not afraid of being driven away...
Moreover, these kids are really too imaginative.
They actually asked a professional soprano to coach a primary school music competition.
And it was discovered by the original music director...
It's embarrassing, okay?
Thinking this, Haibara Ai turned sideways, put her hands behind her back, and looked so miserable.
"..."
Fujino looked at the little ones being picked up by Yuanzi and was silent for a while.
It’s not that I’m speechless about their behavior, but I’m speechless about their immature routine.
So, if you want to trick others into teaching you to sing, at least be more tactful...
This is great, I don't even need to pretend anymore...
When you go out, don't tell anyone that you're hanging out with me, Teng Haonan.
I can't afford to lose face.
Fujino also covered his face, feeling ashamed to face him.
Xiaolan looked at her best friend and the children she brought with her who were making a lot of noise, and wanted to try to persuade them, but was afraid that she would get involved too.
Finally, he gave an awkward smile to Akiba Reiko helplessly: "I'm sorry, I didn't keep an eye on them, please don't take it to heart."
Reiko Akiba looked at the little brats and the rich sponsors who brought them in front of her, and she felt a little helpless from the bottom of her heart: "So, the song you are going to sing together should not be the ninth one, right?"
"Let me make it clear first, I don't really like that song."
“It’s not the Carpenter’s song!”
Yuan Taiyi, who was arguing with Sonoko, mentioned his alma mater, so he overclocked his core to become a dual-threaded one-core, and said to Akiba Reiko in dissatisfaction: "We are going to sing the school song of our Teitan Elementary School."
Yuan Tai was dissatisfied when he heard this, "It's the school song of our Teitan Elementary School!"
"She didn't mean the carpenter, she meant the ninth."
Ai Huihara crossed her arms and explained: "To be precise, it is Beethoven's Ninth Symphony. Although Daiku the carpenter and Daima the ninth have the same pronunciation, they are different things."
"So that's it..."
Ayumi asked in confusion: "Then why does she hate this song?"
"It's because of the fourth movement of the Ninth Symphony, Ode to Joy."
Fujino suddenly spoke up at this time, and couldn't help complaining: "I don't know who Ode to Joy offended, but it has won the Japanese's special liking. It is not only used in elementary music exams, but also in performances, TV dramas and commercials, and even in some festival celebrations and even sports games. And then it became rotten..."
In fact, Fujino didn't understand in his previous life why Akiba Reiko would say this so abruptly, but after traveling through time, he suddenly realized it.
He then went on to explain, "Your choir competition is similar, so she asked if you were going to sing Ode to Joy No. 9 at the concert."
"That's why she, as a professional singer, hates this song."
Huiyuan Ai echoed this, and then sighed: "In fact, I don't really understand why this group of people have a special liking for Ode to Joy..."
"Maybe it's because what you lack, you need more to cover yourself up?"
"puff……"
Upon hearing this, Fujino couldn't help but burst out laughing.
I can only say that she is worthy of being Ai. She has always been quite aggressive.
A sharp tongue always hits the point in criticism.
One interpretation of the chorus of Ode to Joy is that it represents hope, happiness, and friendliness, and brings hope and peace to all mankind. However, although the Japanese have a little etiquette, they actually do the exact opposite.
To some extent, overusing Ode to Joy is also a manifestation of this.
Of course, compared to the cosmic superpower next door, Japan at least has some manners and good character. The cosmic superpower is really not a human being at all, and is born pure and innocent.
Conan looked dead in the eyes, feeling that Haibara Ai's joke was a bit too sharp.
The little ones remained silent, not understanding what Haibara Ai was saying in this cold joke.
"Ahem."
Reiko Akiba found the joke from the little girl in front of her a little awkward.
She coughed lightly, stood up, and took a deep breath: "Okay, since I'm also a graduate of Teitan Elementary School, it's no problem for me to teach you how to sing."
As she said this, she glanced at Yamane Shion who had just changed the strings of her guitar.
I saw the other person's eyes constantly glancing towards the noisy side.
Then he said to everyone, "Since I have already agreed to everything, you should go home quickly and stop disturbing the rehearsal here."
"Yes……"
…………
"The records are all in the notebook."
"I'm sorry to bother you again, brother."
"Ah, it's nothing, it's not a big deal, just don't delay my salary."
"..."
Megure Jusan gave a dead look, feeling that this brother was too money-oriented.
Don’t you feel the bond between us brothers?
Fujino smiled but said nothing.
The few little ones walking in front couldn't help but chirp at Akita Reiko:
"Although I have agreed..."
"But that old lady's attitude is really bad, isn't it?"
"Yeah, that's a little bit."
Huiyuan Ai, who was in the team, listened to the complaints of several people and raised her eyes to express her opinion: "I feel that she is the type of queen."
"Yeah, the queen type."
Conan put his hands in his pockets and followed beside him, echoing the conversation, and then he made another smooth little combo and subconsciously complained: "No wonder Huiyuan can see it, after all, you are also this type."
"……Um?"
