"Uncle, it seems that your ticket didn't fall on the car."
Conan walked in and said to Mouri Kogoro.
Upon hearing this, Mouri Kogoro immediately said to Masayo Aoshima, "Miss, no matter what, please give me the ticket, okay?"
"Well...well...I think I'll just give it to you."
Mouri Kogoro was so overly enthusiastic, and he leaned so close to Masayo Aoshima that she couldn't stand it.
"Give it to me? You said...you meant it!"
Mouri Kogoro's voice rose, and he seemed very surprised.
"Yes!"
Masayo Aoshima nodded, then said, "But, there's something I might need to trouble you with. I was wondering if you could promise me one thing?"
"Yes, just tell me."
Mouri Kogoro immediately agreed, as long as he could get the ticket.
Masayo Aoshima said, "Here's what happened. I was supposed to go to Ms. Yoko's concert with my sister and her boyfriend, Kenji, but Kenji's phone number hasn't been reached at home. So this morning, my sister went looking for him, but she hasn't been able to find him yet. My sister forgot her tickets and needs to go home. I'm going back to go with her to the concert. I don't have a car, so I'd like you to give me a ride. The main reason is that my sister actually has the tickets, so if you want them, you'll need to go back with me."
"That's not a problem at all. We have a car,"
Mouri Kogoro said immediately. He had thought it was a big deal, but it turned out to be just a small matter.
As Mouri Kogoro and Masayo Aoshima walked outside, Conan asked Mouri Ran, "Ran, what's going on?"
Mouri Ran said, "Dad was originally going to buy back his dignity as a man with money, but now it seems that they're going to just give him the tickets."
Aizen paid the bill, and the group left the cafe together.
The car parked outside belonged to Aizen. Aizen was driving the car, and Kogoro Mouri was sitting in the passenger seat.
More than twenty minutes later, the car arrived at Qingdao's house.
Masayo Aoshima led the four people into the house and asked Aizen and the other three to sit in the living room. She went in to see if her sister had returned.
Aizen and the other three walked into the living room and found that the walls and ceiling of the living room were covered with posters of celebrities. The whole room was almost covered with them. There were at least dozens of posters. Moreover, the celebrities on the posters were those who became famous in the 1970s, those who became famous in the 1980s, and those who are very famous now. It can be said that they have spanned several eras
. Mouri Kogoro looked around and exclaimed: "Ms. Yoko, Ms. Anzai Asuka, TOW-MIX, Ms. Hoshino Terumi... It's really amazing. They even know LEX, which disbanded a long time ago."
"You even know this. You are really amazing."
Conan secretly complained in his heart. Mouri Kogoro knew so many celebrities. He was really amazing. How could ordinary people know so much.
Ran looked at the sea and reported: "It seems that Miss Masayo is really obsessed with idol stars."
Mouri Kogoro said, "But her sister who lives with her will be in a headache."
"That's not the case."
Aizen stood in front of the shelf, holding two CDs and said, "I checked, and there are two copies of these photo albums, CDs, and other things. It seems that Miss Masayo's sister is as obsessed with idols as she is."
"That's strange."
Mouri Kogoro heard it and walked over. Sure enough, there were two copies of the records and other things.
Ran asked in confusion: "But didn't Miss Masayo say that she was moving out? Then why didn't she take these things with her?"
"I think it must be because there are too many of them and they can't take them all away."
Mouri Kogoro said, looking at the corner and said: "Look, there are still so many corrugated cardboard boxes used to pack things, but..."
"Mina! Mina!"
Masayo Aoshima's anxious shouting was faintly heard. The four people in the living room heard it clearly and walked out immediately.
"Mina! Mina! Open the door, Mina!"
Masayo Aoshima's voice was very anxious. Aizen and the other four immediately ran inside and followed the sound to find Masayo Aoshima. Masayo Aoshima was standing outside a door at this moment, knocking on the door. The door was taped from the inside, and the three words "Goodbye" were written on the door with tape.
"How could that be?"
Mouri Kogoro was shocked and asked, "Could it be locked from the inside?"
Masayo Aoshima replied, "No, we don't have a key to this bathroom door. It looks like they taped it shut from the inside."
Aizen said, "Miss Masayo, are you sure you were talking to your sister? If it were your sister you were talking to, did she have time to do this between her return and our arrival?"
Mouri Kogoro said gravely, "Let's not worry about that for now. Let's break the door down."
"Okay!"
Aizen responded.
Masayo Aoshima stood on the far left, Mouri Kogoro in the middle, and Aizen on the far right.
After Mouri Kogoro counted one, two, three, the three of them stepped forward, sideways, and slammed hard against the door, forcing it open.
Inside the bathroom, a man lay sprawled outside the bathtub, his hand in the water, which had turned red.
Seeing this, Masayo Aoshima exclaimed, "Kenji?! How did Kenji get here?!"
Mouri Kogoro ran over, checked, and shook his head.
"He's dead,"
Aizen said to Mouri Ran, "Ran, go call the police."
Mouri Ran responded and ran away.
Conan looked in the bathroom. He deliberately picked up Kenji's hand from the bathtub and examined it. The several slanted knife marks on it made him frown. The neat marks next to it, as if they had been wiped, also made him secretly worried.
"You little brat, don't move around at this scene, do you understand?"
Mouri Kogoro punched Conan in the head, picked him up and threw him out of the bathroom. Then he said to Aizen, "Aizen, keep an eye on this little brat. Don't let him run around."
"Okay, Master Mouri,"
Aizen nodded in response. Looking at Conan, who was covering his head, he couldn't help but smile. Today he won't be watching Conan, he still needs Conan's performance. Without Conan's performance, how can his plan be achieved? He doesn't believe that Mouri Kogoro can solve the case.
