Chapter 21 The Key

"The key..." Yoko Okino thought for a while, "I have a pair besides me, and I gave it to Mr. Yamaki..."

"I understand..." Kogoro's eyes suddenly lit up when he heard this, and he pointed at Eiichi Yamaki with his hand, "The murderer is... the agent Eiichi Yamaki, it's you!"

"ah!?"

Yamaki Ei was shocked, and the rest of them looked at him with surprise!

"What!? He is the murderer?" Officer Megu shouted in surprise.

"No, right? Mr. Yamakiki is the murderer?" Yoko Otsuno covered her mouth, obviously very surprised.

Xia Ri was also stunned. Kogoro actually found the murderer so quickly? Did he have mastered any clues?

"Not me!" Yamaki Eiichi shook his head quickly, "You made a mistake, I'm not the murderer!!!"

"Brother Maori, are you saying true?" Officer Meguri asked, "Shi Shi was left for three days and should have looked at him with admiration. Has Kogoro become so keen after becoming a detective? You can find the murderer by just talking?

"Hmph..." Kogoro smiled confidently, "I think you must be pursuing Miss Yoko, but instead were dumped by Miss Yoko and held a grudge. That's why he designed this murder case to be used to blame Miss Yoko, right?"

"What? Is there any basis for you to say that?" Officer Megu asked.

"That's more important than that? How could it be the murderer as cute as Miss Yoko??" Kogoro laughed.

Summer:...

Conan:...

Yoko Okino:...

Officer Meguro:...

Officer Memu sighed, I would actually believe this fool naively, I am really blind...

"I'm really not the murderer!" Yamaki Eiichi explained panic, "I do have the key to Yoko's room, but the key was lost by me a few days ago..."

"What did you say!" Kogoro grabbed Eiichi Yamaki's neckline, "At this point, do you still want to make a quibble?"

"It's true!! When I was in the TV station lounge five days ago, the key was gone..." Yamaki Eiichi said in panic. He wanted to break free from Kogoro's hand, but found that Kogoro's hand was as firm as iron pliers.

"Uncle Kogoro!" Xia Ri hurried forward and rescued Yamaki Eiichi from Kogoro's hands. "Please calm down and just rely on one key to make others the murderer. This is too hasty!"

On the side, Yoko Okino hurriedly confirmed this: "Mr. Yamaki said he did not lie! That day, we also asked the TV staff to help find it!"

"Tsk! Since Miss Yoko has said that, I will believe you once." Kogoro curled his lips.

"And since he lost the key that day, I felt like someone had entered my room when I was not at home..." Yoko Okino added.

"If this is true... Miss Yoko, have you offended anyone recently? Or have you become aggrieved with someone?" asked Officer Memu.

"Impossible... Yoko is very popular..." Eiyuki Yamaki shook his head and said affirmatively.

After sorting out the clues he got in his mind, Xia Ri raised a question: "Officer Meguri, is it possible that he was from the TV station? After getting the key, he entered this room?"

"People from the TV station?" Officer Meguchi frowned, "It's not impossible..."

Xia Ri nodded: "Since the key was lost, Miss Yoko noticed that someone had entered her room. The person who entered the room was probably the one who picked up the key on the TV station!"

"When Miss Yoko lost the key, she asked the TV station's people to help find it. This led everyone to know that the key belonged to Miss Yoko, and then they knew that after picking up the key, they could enter and exit Miss Yoko's house freely!"

"If the key is picked up by a malicious person, or the person stole the key, he entered the room for unknown reasons, and then had an argument with the victim for unknown reasons, so that he killed him with a knife, all this makes sense!"

"What you said is indeed very reasonable..." Police Officer Meguchi said this and glanced at Yamaki Eiyi with a little meaningful look, "But the premise is that the key is really lost, or it is really picked up by someone!"

At this time, Conan came to the front of several people and gently pulled Officer Megu's trouser legs with his hands.

"Officer Meguri, there is under the sofa over there..."

However, he didn't expect that before he finished speaking, he was driven away by Kogoro.

"Go away! Go away!" Kogoro waved his hand at Conan impatiently, "You little dear, don't interfere with us solving the case! If I had known you were in such trouble, I wouldn't have brought you here!"

Officer Meguri also looked at Conan with a disgusting look: "Really, why did you bring the child too?"

Seeing Conan walk away in shame, on the other hand, in summer, because of Conan's keen discovery just now, I felt that this child had excellent insight and could always notice some things that ordinary people could not notice.

"Conan..." Xia Ri bent down with a friendly smile on her face, "What's wrong? Have you noticed anything again?"

"Yes...yes..." Conan brought Xia Ri to the sofa, leaned down, pointed to the bottom of the sofa, "I saw that there seemed to be something there..."

"Is there something?" Xia Ri half-kneeled on the ground, lowered her head, looked at the bottom of the sofa, and found that there was indeed a small thing there, which seemed to be... an earring?

Whose earrings are this? Is it Okino Yoko?

"It's done well!" Xia Ri smiled and rubbed Conan's hair hard. For a moment, his impression of him greatly improved. Even though this naughty child was disobedient, he always gave people unexpected surprises.

Of course, there is also shock.

"Haha..." Conan forced a smile, "...Because I am a child, my attention is on the ground..."

Xia Ri nodded, then stood up and walked to Officer Meguro.

"Officer Meguri, there is an earring under the sofa!"

"earrings!?"

Officer Megu was very surprised and came to the sofa, put on white gloves, and brought out the earrings.

"Miss Yoko, is this your earring?" Officer Meguchi asked.

Yoko Okino recognized the earring at a glance and said in surprise: "Ah! This earring...isn't Yuko's??"

"Yuko?" Officer Megumi said in confusion.

"It's Yuko Ikezawa, she debuted at the same time as me... Because we often work together, I recognize her earrings."

"But why is this earring here? Yuko has never been to my house..."
