Chapter 513
"Who is this man in the knitted hat?" Kudo Yukiko asked as she looked at the garden, a stocky figure with his back to everyone and crouched on the ground.
"Ah, he, he's a soil gardener..." the old housekeeper Ueki Kusanachi replied weakly.
"But what is he doing in the garden so late?" Mrs. Fujieda looked at the person's back through the monitoring and said with some dissatisfaction.
"I think I'm taking care of flowers and plants!" Fujieda said seriously, "Because tomorrow is my deceased sister's birthday, and she likes these flowers and plants very much!"
"Well, he's really serious!" Haihara couldn't help but sigh, looking at this family, it seemed that only this gardener missed his wife, who had only died for half a year.
"Okay, I have to go write the unfinished manuscript, so I won't accompany you!" Fujieda suddenly turned to the butler and said, "Uekiki, I'll leave it to you next!"
"I wanted to spend more time with you beautiful women, but it's a pity!" Fujieda walked to the door, and while opening the door, he said to several women with some humility.
"That's right! Sister Yukiko, Aunt Eiri..." At this moment, Haihara suddenly said with a look of interest.
But before Haibara finished speaking, she felt a piercing gaze, she couldn't help but stop talking, followed that gaze, and saw that Concubine Eiri's face was gloomy, and Kudo Yukiko next to her seemed to be smiling, from the woman's intuition, she reacted instantly, and quickly changed her words before everyone spoke.
"Sister Yingli...," Haibara called out in a brittle voice.
Conan, Xiaolan and Tang Zhen, the three of them left a cold sweat on their heads at the same time.
"Oh, Xiao Moe, how can you scream nonsense? I'm not as old as some people, and I'm still pretending to be tender there, and I want to call Auntie..." Although Concubine Yingli said so, the smile on her face betrayed the thoughts in her heart.
“!!!" Kudo Yukiko's face changed, and then quickly put on a smile, "Yes, I don't know who was called auntie, and her face became so scary!"
Seeing that the two plastic sister flowers were about to pinch up, Xiaolan quickly asked, "By the way, Xiao Wei, what did you just ask?"
“!!!" Haihara was also taken aback by the changes between the two just now, and at this time, seeing Xiaolan change the topic, she quickly said, "Sister Yukiko and Sister Yingri, who won and who lost your beauty pageant duel back then?" "
Didn't you just say that? Unfortunately, before the results came in, the game was urgently stopped! Xiaolan said a little helplessly.
"Then there is always one person who will have some advantage before terminating!" Haibara asked with a gossipy look, because of the same women, she was very concerned about these.
"Before the game was called, the results came out!" Kudo Yukiko said with a smile.
"Oh!" Tang Zhen and several people looked at these two protagonists of the pageant that year.
"But to your disappointment, we had the same number of votes at that time, and just one person got 10,000 votes to win or lose." Facing everyone's expectant gaze, Concubine Yingli smiled helplessly and shrugged her shoulders and said.
"It's too much of a coincidence, isn't it?" Conan asked with some suspicion.
"But something strange did happen in between." Kudo Yukiko saw at a glance what her son was thinking, and explained with a smile, "In order to be able to divide the winner and loser well, the organizer prepared 20,001 ballots at that time, but in the end it turned out that there was one less, and in the end, in order to find this vote, there was a big mess!"
"That's why the final awards party was canceled!" Concubine Eiri looked at Kudo Yukiko and said with a smile on her face, "But if I find this vote, I think it will be Yukiko who wins!"
"How so? Surely I will lose to Eiri? Kudo Yukiko said with a smile on her face.
"Where will it be..." Then Tang Zhen and Hui Yuan mourned that they saw the two sisters' deep secrets, where they humbly pushed each other with smiles on their faces, but I don't know why, they always felt that the smiles of these two good sisters were a little fake.
"So, did that ballot have a gold seal on it?" At this moment, Xiaolan hesitated and interrupted the two sisterly women.
"Well, yes!" Concubine Yingli looked at her daughter strangely.
"That's it, that's the school charter of Teidan High School..." Kudo Yukiko explained to her future daughter-in-law.
"If that's really the case, I found one inside Daddy's uniform!" Xiaolan looked at the two mothers and said with a smile, "It fell out when sorting out the old clothes, but I didn't expect it to be a ballot for the beauty pageant!" "
Ah..." Kudo Yukiko and Concubine Eiri's faces changed as they looked at Koran.
"Who, whose name is written on it?" The smile on Concubine Yingli's face disappeared, and she looked at Xiaolan and asked anxiously.
"Is it me, or Yingli, who the hell?" Kudo Yukiko also asked nervously and eagerly.
"Ugh!" Xiaolan looked at the reaction of her two mothers, was startled, and quickly said, "Because Dad sent his clothes directly to the laundry to wash like this, and as a result, the paper was made a mess, and it was not clear at all..."
You'll have to be honest! Fei Yingli showed her momentum in the courtroom, and pressed her daughter in a serious tone, "You know, the consequences of lying to a lawyer are very serious!"
"Yes, Xiaolan, if it's really your mother, please don't care about my mood!" Kudo Yukiko said with a smile on her face.
"Ah, that, I really don't know..." Looking at the two who were confronting each other and full of momentum, Xiaolan said with some stammering and sweating.
When Tang Zhen saw this scene, he couldn't help but feel in his heart, just now he was intimate and close and sisterly, and now as soon as he heard that the beauty contest could determine the winner, did he start to carry guns and sticks with each other?
"Two aunts, after you go back, just ask Uncle Kogoro directly?" Conan knew that it was time to speak up on his own, and if he didn't speak for his girlfriend at this time, he would have his good fruit to eat when he went back.
"Hmm..." Kudo Yukiko and Eiri looked at each other, and then became as smiling as before.
"In other words, Xiao Wei, do you think Xiao Lan knows the name on that ballot?" Tang Zhen, who had seen a good show, came to Gray Plain and asked her, the initiator.
"Do you still need to ask? You must know! After watching a wonderful show, the satisfied gray plain said with a determined face, "Didn't Xiaolan say that there was a seal on it before? Since the seal can be seen, how can you not see whose name is written on it? "
Indeed..." Tang Zhen nodded, looked at Xiao Lan, who was a little helpless over there, and couldn't help but say, "Xiao Lan is really intimidated!"
"What if she doesn't hesitate, she really dares to say that name, no matter who she says? will offend the other..." said Haibara with some sympathy.
"I didn't expect them to be old, and they still care about this, women..." Tang Zhen couldn't help but sigh.
What's wrong with the woman? Did the woman provoke you? Haiyuan glared at Tang Zhen with dissatisfaction, and then said threateningly, "Believe it or not, I said what you just said? "
Don't, don't..." Tang Zhen forgot that the little girl in front of him was also a woman, and couldn't help but quickly apologize, otherwise, she really had to say it, he didn't know how much suffering he had to endure!
"Hmph, instigation, and saying that others instigated..." said Haibara proudly.
"Little mourning..." Just when Tang Zhen was about to retort that he was not instigating, but that the person who knew the time was Junjie, the panicked cry of the housekeeper who was watching the monitoring over there attracted the attention of a group of people.
"Why did the old man's hand rise?"
"Hmm!" The next group of people couldn't care about their gossip, and they all immediately gathered in front of the monitor.
"What's going on?" Concubine Yingli looked at the monitor, and the old man Fujieda, who had just raised his hands, said in surprise.
"Could someone break in with a pistol?" Kudo Yukiko looked at the appearance of Lord Fujieda's raised hand in surrender, thought of the used bullet before, and said speculatively.
"How is that possible? Just now when I went to deliver coffee, I came out of it, and it was obviously locked! Ueki Kusanachi said in disbelief?
Tang Zhen looked at this group of people a little strangely, since he saw that something happened over there through monitoring, why didn't he hurry over, and he was still grinding here, did he really have to wait for the murderer to kill someone?
However, although Tang Zhen was puzzled, he did not intend to open his mouth to remind him, after all, he and the family were not related, and in the car before, he heard from Kudo Yukiko that the family's old style was not very good, so there was no reason to speak.
"Ah, no, the lord was shot! Shot shot! At this moment, Mrs. Fujieda looked at Mr. Fujieda, who was holding his hands, suddenly fell to the ground, and couldn't help but shout nervously.
"Do you have the key to that room?" Only then did Concubine Yingli react, and while walking towards the door, she asked the housekeeper Ueki Kusanachi.
"I have a spare key in my room!" Ueki Kusanaba said weakly.
"Then you go and get it right away..." After that, Kudo Yukiko ran out of the study with Concubine Eiri.
"Then I, I'll call the police..." Mrs. Fujieda looked a little overwhelmed.
"Gotta call an ambulance!" Haibara looked at the two who had run out and reminded Mrs. Fujieda.
"Let's go, let's go and see..." Tang Zhen watched a group of people run out and said to the gray plain next to him.
"Hmm..." Haibara nodded mournfully.
In the corridor, Conan took the lead with small short legs, and Concubine Eiri and Kudo Yukiko followed closely.
"What happened?" Hearing the movement outside, a room in the corridor suddenly opened, and Fujieda saw the back of Xiaolan who had just run over.
"Something happened to Master Fujieda!" Tang Zhen had just come over with Gray Plain at this time, and he said to the vine branch fan who looked puzzled.
