Chapter 71
Adhering to the principle of professionalism, Kogoro Mouri still searched all the places in the house where people could be hidden, including the attic.
In the end, it was confirmed that there was no place in this house where people could hide. Even if there was a gap where one could barely hide in a small position, it was full of dust. There was no sign of the dust being wiped off, so no one had ever come in.
No matter how you look at it, it seems that the client's feeling was wrong.
Kogoro Mouri continued to look at the client's information, covered in dust.
The client is 42 years old and her name is Takamori Momomi. According to her, she and her husband grew up in Beika Town. They have been classmates since childhood, got together in high school, and have been in love since they got married and had children. Because she lives in Beika Town, she has always been paying attention to the news about Mouri Kogoro. When her friends suggested that she investigate, she immediately thought of Mouri Kogoro.
After reading the message, Kogoro Mouri frowned, then he turned around and looked back as if he remembered something.
"Yubai?"
"Where have you been again, little devil?"
Kogoro Mouri walked out of the room and saw Yushiro Kamiki sitting on the floor of the living room. There was a broken comb on the floor. Yushiro Kamiki was completely attracted by the comb and was trying to put it together, but no matter how hard he tried to put the broken comb together, a crack would appear.
He was not in a hurry and just continued to spell it with his hands.
"A comb?" Maori Kogoro picked up the notebook that Kamiki Yubai had written in. "Is this the comb that Ms. Takamori lost?"
Seeing this, Kogoro Mouri also began to suspect that Takamori Momomi was playing a trick. She said that a lot of things were missing from the house and that other strangers might have come in, but there were no signs of picking the lock in the house and no clues of anyone hiding, and even the lost things were in the trash can.
But Maori Kogoro thought it was unnecessary. Isn't it strange to throw something into the trash and then lie that it's lost?
Squatting down and picking up the comb that was split into two halves, Kamiki Yubai's eyes followed Mouri Kogoro's hands, and finally met Mouri Kogoro's eyes.
"Yubai." Maori Kogoro put the comb aside so that Kamiki Yubai couldn't see it. "You found the comb. Do you have any clues now?"
Shenmu Yubai blinked, then he said, "All the things were thrown into the trash can yesterday."
"Huh? How did you know?"
"There are other things in the trash can, including checkout lists and food wrappers. The fast food purchased from the supermarket will be marked with the purchase date, including the expiration date on the outer packaging of donuts. There are also leftovers in the refrigerator." Shenmu Youbai said in a steady voice, "It's mushrooms."
Maori Kogoro touched his chin and said, "In other words, yesterday, Ms. Takamori bought a series of things including donuts, and then threw them all into the trash can, and then forgot about it, thinking that these things were lost?"
