Chapter 640 Only Routine Can Break Routine
Conan nodded, agreeing with Hissashi's plan, and asked, "Then do you know who the culprit is?"
"The Waiter who served the Peking Duck," Hissashi said, "He was also the one who brought the Ashtray to Mr. Kawabata. He served the Roast Duck himself, perhaps to confirm whether the Ashtray had been wet by the soup and whether the plan had succeeded, or perhaps to put himself on the list of suspects and undergo the first Toxin test with the Food to eliminate suspicion. I went to the Kitchen and the Staff Room before and found Edible Glue in the Cabinet where he put his Work Uniform, as well as suspicious Fragments, probably Wafer Paper Fragments. I didn't touch them to avoid leaving any Trace. You can ask the Forensic Personnel to check it..."
Committing a crime under Conan's nose and still wanting to not leave any Evidence? Dream on.
Besides this, the source of the Wafer Paper and Edible Glue can also be investigated.
This is a restaurant, and he guessed that Fellow probably got it from a Warehouse or something.
Wafer Paper is rarely used in dishes. The only thing that would use Wafer Paper here is probably Tanghulu. There probably aren't many people who can come into contact with Wafer Paper, so it should be easy to lock down.
"Moreover, it's very inconvenient to wear Gloves to paste Wafer Paper under the Ashtray. He probably wasn't wearing Gloves at the time," Conan stroked his chin and took over the conversation, "If the same components as the Wafer Paper and Edible Glue in his Cabinet are found under the Ashtray, and his Fingerprint is found on the Wafer Paper Fragments and Edible Glue bottle in the Cabinet, it can prove that he glued Wafer Paper under the Ashtray. In addition, he should have avoided other people and taken things like the Ashtray to the Men's Restroom to prepare. As long as the Wafer Paper residue in the Toilet Drain tests positive for Cyanide reaction, it can also prove that he not only glued Wafer Paper under the Ashtray, but also applied Poison. As for whether it was him or Mr. Isogami who caused Mr. Kawabata's Death..."
"Check the Fingerprint on the Poisoned part under the Turntable," Hissashi said, "As long as Mr. Kawabata's Fingerprint is not found, it can prove that Mr. Kawabata did not touch the Toxin applied by Mr. Isogami."
Conan breathed a sigh of relief in his Heart.
Two people committing crimes, one succeeding and one failing... He had seen this Situation before, but this time Kaizo Isozaki's Actions were too much. He not only attacked the Victim, but also switched the Wet Towel, which almost caused a loophole in his Deduction.
Although Kaizo Isozaki didn't succeed, it counts as Attempted Murder, and he will also be charged with obstructing the Police Investigation, but fortunately the Truth is revealed, the True Culprit has been found, and the Evidence has also been found.
There is only one Question...
"Brother Chi," Conan looked up at Hissashi, "Did you turn the Turntable because you found Mr. Isogami's Behavior suspicious and the Location of those two dishes was wrong, and wanted to prevent something from happening?"
"Who knows," Hissashi walked towards the Dining Room, and said his unprophetic truth, which Conan didn't believe, "Action."
Who knows? What kind of answer is that?
Conan glanced at Hissashi's Figure with Half-Moon Eyes, and quickly froze again, and followed him to the Living Room.
The order of events at that time was: the soup spilled, Mouri Ran Get Up, Shiro Kawabata Get Up with a Wet Towel to wipe his Pants, Shiro Kawabata put his arm around Ran's Shoulder to change Seats, and Shiro Kawabata went back to get his Cutlery and Ashtray.
Therefore, Ran should not have been contaminated with Toxin. Those contaminated with Toxin were Shiro Kawabata's original Towel, Cutlery, Finger, and Ashtray.
Kaizo Isozaki swapped his poisonous Wet Towel with the Deceased, but he didn't know that some Toxin also remained on the Deceased's Wet Towel.
Although no one dares to eat in the restaurant now, and the Police will stop them, if Kaizo Isozaki touches other Things again, and other people touch them and also get contaminated with Toxin, maybe one or two smokers will be unlucky...
...
Back in the Dining Room, Hissashi found Ran.
"Ran, Conan said he's Cold, can you Keep Company me to the Parking Lot to get the Coat in the Trunk?"
Conan who followed: "..."
Okay, he'll take the blame.
"Conan feels Cold?" Ran looked at Conan, and seeing Conan obediently Nod, she smiled helplessly, "Then you stay here and don't run around, okay? Brother Hichiji and I will go get you a Coat..."
"Okay~"
Conan responded obediently, and when Ran and Hissashi left, he turned around and gave Old Dad a shot.
Ran didn't notice Mori Kogoro who started swaying behind her, "Brother Hissashi, can we leave the Hotel now?"
Hissashi: "Sneak away."
Ran: "..."
The two took advantage of the Police's inattention and slipped out of the Hotel.
Before reaching the Parking Lot, Ran suddenly Stop, quickly flipped through her Pocket, "Oops! Brother Hissashi, my Mobile Phone seems to have dropped in the Hotel..."
Hissashi: "..."
As expected, it's Fate's Routine.
"That Mobile Phone is very Important," Ran turned her Head anxiously to Look Towards the direction of the Hotel, "Because... because..."
Because that Mobile Phone was given to her by Shinichi.
If she loses her Mobile Phone, even if Shinichi doesn't blame her, she will feel guilty.
"The Parking Lot isn't far away. I'll run over to get the Coat, and then go back to Help you find it together." Hissashi didn't wait for Ran to finish 'because', and Turn Around and ran towards the Parking Lot.
At This Time, if he said 'go get the Coat first', it would seem very unkind, and Ran might even propose 'you go get the Coat, I'll go back and look first'.
So, take the initiative, only Routine can break Routine!
First of all, having someone Help find it is definitely better than finding it alone. This is a habitual Thought. 'Help you find it together' is easy for Ran to accept, and she will feel that waiting for a while is more worthwhile and willing to stay and wait.
Secondly, his Performance of a little urgency can also make Ran feel that he is also anxious, and not leave him alone and go back in advance.
Saying So will not hurt the Relationship for the sake of delaying Time. In addition, not giving Ran a chance to speak will probably make Ran stay in Original Place.
People who have their Personality figured out are really too easy to predict their Behavior and Actions.
Of course, Hissashi didn't deliberately delay Time. After running to the Parking Lot, he took a Coat from the Trunk of the Car and ran back to the Place where Ran was waiting for him.
Ran was originally waiting anxiously, but seeing Hissashi running back and forth, she felt a little embarrassed, "Sorry, Brother Hissashi, it's all my fault for being careless..."
"It's okay." Hissashi didn't run anymore, but his pace was still a little faster, "Don't worry, if someone picks it up, they should return it to you, and the Police are still sealing off the Hotel now, even if someone picks up the Mobile Phone and doesn't return it, they can't put it anywhere else, it will always be found."
Ran quickly followed, and hearing Hissashi Say So, she felt much more at ease, "Y-Yeah, Also Correct..."
Hissashi didn't speak anymore.
If Ran went back by herself just now, it would take about 10 minutes to reach the Hotel on foot, but Ran might run, and it would take about 5 or 6 minutes to arrive. Because she was in a hurry, she probably wouldn't avoid the Police sealing off the Entrance of the Hotel when running back.
When he ran to the Parking Lot to get the Coat and ran back, it took about 5 minutes to wait. Plus, Ran wouldn't run back with him in a hurry. Even if they speeded up their pace, it would probably take another 8 minutes. With him following, Ran probably wouldn't directly run in, and it would take Time to avoid the Police at the Hotel Entrance and sneak back in...
The whole Process can be delayed for at least 10 minutes.
When they came out, they walked very slowly and had to avoid the Police to sneak out, which took about 12 minutes. In total, it's 22 minutes. As long as Conan doesn't show off any Method demonstration again, it should be enough.
Moreover, it would take about twenty minutes for them to walk down normally. Conan should be able to control the Time... Should be, right?
Hissashi was really a little worried about the Famous Detective who forgets himself as soon as he Deductions.
At the Hotel Entrance, two Police Officers stood behind the Police Line.
Hissashi and Ran went around to Aside, and took advantage of the two Police Officers' inattention to sneak to the Rear, but when the two quickly entered the Door, the Zipper of the Coat in Hissashi's Hand rubbed against the Door Frame of the Main Gate.
"Crack..."
The sound was slight, but enough for people nearby to hear clearly.
Hassashi: "..."
It suspects that Master did it Intentionally!
Ran froze, Stop, Turn Head and Look Once Seeing, and sure enough, the two Police Officers standing behind the Police Line Turn Head and looked over.
Hissashi had already Turn Around before the two Police Officers Turn Around, facing the two Police Officers.
The two Police Officers thought the two were coming out from inside, and asked curiously.
"Is Mr. Mouri's Reasoning over?"
"It's a Regret, I also really wanted to see Famous Detective Mori Kogoro's Deduction Show."
Just as the people in the Dining Room were walking out in a rush.
Ran and Hissashi stepped aside together to make way, watching the Police take Kaizo Isozaki and the Waiter who served the Roast Duck away.
Conan followed behind, took out a Mobile Phone from his Pants Pocket and handed it to Ran, "Ran, here! Your Mobile Phone fell under the Seat. I just happened to See it and picked it up for you."
Ran took the Mobile Phone, checked it and found it was not broken, and breathed a long Sigh of relief, "That's great."
Conan also quietly breathed a Sigh of relief in his Heart.
He found Ran's Mobile Phone fell under the Chair during the Deduction Process.
He guessed that Ran must be very anxious and might come back halfway to find it, so he quickly sped up the Deduction Speed, and didn't demonstrate the Method again, and directly asked the Forensic Personnel to present the Evidence.
Looking at the Situation, Hissashi and Ran should have just entered the Door, and didn't let Ran hear those inside Matters.
Fortunately, fortunately...
Although he didn't know how Hissashi dragged on for so long, and how he stopped Ran from returning halfway, it was really the right Decision to let Hissashi go with her.
Hissashi Step Forward and threw the Coat to Conan, "Put it on."
Conan: "..."
If Hissashi could be gentler when he was full of emotion and lingering fear, or could show the same 'relief' look as him, and secretly communicate with him about the thrill just now, it would be even more perfect.
After Ran put away her Mobile Phone, she asked curiously, "By the Way, Conan, is the Culprit Mr. Isogami?"
"Seemingly so," Conan wrapped Hissashi's spare Coat tightly, pretending to be an Elementary School Student and Acting Cute, "Because Uncle rambled on for a long Time, and I felt Cold again, so I sat behind the Table in the Corner and waited for you to come back. I didn't hear clearly what was going on in this Case."
Ran squatted down, touched Conan's Forehead, and smiled at Conan, "It doesn't Seemingly be hot, so you shouldn't be sick. Although it's Summer now, and the Temperature is usually very High, it will get Cold after it rains. Be Careful of catching a Cold recently!"
Hissashi leaned against the Corridor Wall, listening to the Topic turning to recent Weather, Colds, flu, School Exams, and where to go for summer vacation, and lowered his Head to send a UL Message to Odagiri Toshiya with his Mobile Phone.
The idea of the Onmyoji Series movie is good. Now that the Investor is dead, he wants to let Odagiri Toshiya take a Look and see if he can negotiate with the Original Author to get all the Copyright in hand.
Make a movie? No, adding a lot of Monsters from Legends and Tales of the Strange is more Suitable for making a TV Drama.
Although there is a chain of contempt in the Film and Television Industry, the grade of movies is always higher than that of TV Dramas, and there are gaps in cost, Plot, and Actors, but it does not Mean that TV Dramas cannot make Making Money.
And you can also try to promote the Newcomer who just signed and the Actors who can't become popular. First use TV Dramas to attract fans. If their Acting Skill is okay, it's not impossible to make movies of the same series.
To put it bluntly, it is to operate 'Onmyoji' as an IP. Anime, Merchandise, Games, and Theme Park can all be Considered.
How much Making Money can be made depends on how dark Odagiri Toshiya's Heart was when he initially negotiated...

"The Waiter who served the Peking Duck," Hissashi said, "He was also the one who brought the Ashtray to Mr. Kawabata.
