Chapter Seventy-Five—The Sick Are the "Dead" and the "Sick" Are the Dead

"It's here... Gregory walked outside the morgue with Conan and Thousand Feathers. "Wait for me here."

"Morgue?" After Gregory entered, Thousand Feathers asked Conan. "What are you looking for? Miss Tako's remains? ”

"It's not." Conan shrugged. "Wait patiently, we'll tell you soon."

“。。。”

Five minutes later, Grigory walked out with a smug expression. "Now, it's all confirmed, let's go to the ward."

There, they met an unexpected person.

"Why are you still here?" Grigory walked into Junko Mitsuhara's hospital room and raised an eyebrow - her boyfriend was back here.

"I still can't let it go, so I'm back," the man replied with a sigh. "Just now the doctor came in to check on her and said she seemed to be much better."

"Yes," said Grigory, walking over to the bed, glancing at the apparatus. "That's good." With that, he turned off the infusion valve.

"What are you going to do, sir?" The man asked curiously.

"Glasses-boy," Grigory ordered without looking back. "You answer."

"Intravenous alcohol is very effective for delirium tremens," Conan explained, glancing at Chiha, who was also not quite understanding, next to him. "But injecting alcohol is a very dangerous behavior, and the slightest carelessness can lead to an overdose, which can lead to serious consequences."

"Friendly reminder," Grigory added. "I'll ask her to do an amylase test to see how well her pancreas is doing."

"Okay, thank you—" Before the man could finish his sentence, he saw Gregory actually grab the tube around Hikari Hikarahara's neck with his hand. "What are you going to do?"

"I have good news and bad news for you," said Gregory, turning his head to the man. "Before I tell you, you still have a chance to re-fulfill your previous behavior and leave her again."

"I'm not going to do that!" The man replied immediately. "Absolutely not! Tell me, what are the two messages? ”

"First of all," Gregory said, looking at the man. "Your girlfriend is very honest, she neither takes antidepressants nor drinks heavily."

"Huh?" The man was visibly stunned.

"But," said Grigory, showing the pamphlet in his arms to the man. "The patient we're treating, she's on antidepressants and alcohol."

"You..." The man looked at the pamphlet and asked stunned. "What do you mean?"

"Did you know that your girlfriend has a good sister named Tianzi?" Grigory asked, clasping his hands to his chest.

"I know," the man nodded. "When I first met Junko, she was playing with Tako in the Paradise. I saw his boyfriend just now, and it seems that Tako was with Junko at the time and didn't survive the explosion. ”

"Mind if I read her medical records to you?" Grigory asked.

"What the hell is going on?" Chiba, who had been kept in the dark until now, asked Conan. "Can't you tell me?"

"He'll tell you in a moment," Conan motioned to Chiba to listen carefully to what Grigory was about to say. "Listen carefully."

"Tako Toya, female, 31 years old, from Fukuyama." Grigory read the medical records. "I'm currently taking monoamine oxidase inhibitors for depression and I'm treating alcoholic fatty liver disease — a condition that can only be contracted if you drink a lot of alcohol or drink for a long time. What's more, her blood type is O, which is consistent with the results of our blood test. ”

"Hey, hey, hey," Qianyu immediately understood everything and asked Conan for confirmation. "Do you mean..."

Conan nodded silently.

"Oh my God... Qian Yu rolled her eyes.

"After being burned, both Miss Tako and Miss Junko were badly burned beyond recognition, their hair burned out, and only charred residues remained of their clothes. In addition, the two of them were about the same size, so after the little ghost and I brought Miss Tianzi, who could still be rescued, back to the hospital as soon as possible, the fire alarm that arrived later brought the dead Miss Junko back to the morgue of Rice Flower Central Hospital. Grigory continued. After you learn that something may have happened to your girlfriend, you rush here and see Miss Tianzi here. Since you don't know that there is a deceased person at the scene of the fire besides her, you subconsciously assume that she is Miss Junko. Because we didn't find her information, the doctor didn't question your judgment in any way. This is the reason for all doubts. ”

"This... That's impossible! Large drops of cold sweat left on the man's head, and after that, he forced a smile on his face. I know Junko, this is Junko, Tianzi is dead! This must be a straight! I know her necklace! Although the outer circle was burned down, the inner part was well preserved! This necklace is very valuable, only she has it! ”

"I can't explain the necklace thing, but there's no need to explain it either, because we have an easier way to prove it. Now, let the Lord tell you," Gregory took the tube off the neck of Hikari Junko and pressed his hand down the hole that appeared after removing the tube, so that she could speak. "What's your name?"

The man looked nervously at the woman on the bed, waiting for her answer.

“To。。。 ya。。。 (Toya)" the woman said intermittently.

"Oh my God... Suddenly, the man was already kneeling on the ground, crying silently. "Junko... Junko!! ”

“。。。” Qian Yu looked at the man who had collapsed on the ground, closed his eyes, and shook his head.

。。。

This time, it's really on the way home. There is no more moth that makes a thousand feathers almost crazy.

However, there is a question in Qianyu's mind that cannot be solved.

"That necklace should be a lot of money, right?" Chiba has been thinking about everything that happened today, but she has never been able to figure it out, and finally chooses to ask Conan a question. "Why, there is also one called Tianzi? Could it be that she is also rich? ”

"Hmm..." Conan thought for a moment and replied uncertainly. "First of all, I'm just guessing."

"First of all, I asked Dr. Asa about the necklace, and it's a very famous necklace, and it's always sold in pairs." Conan tapped his chest, where there was a Sherlock Holmes badge.

"Sold in pairs?" Qian Yu seemed to have caught some information.

"Yes," Conan nodded. "The necklace itself is not a cross, the outside is a heart made of gold."

“。。。” Qian Yu couldn't do anything but be stunned.

"It doesn't have to be the kind of love you think," Conan rolled his eyes. This necklace also contains the theme of family affection. I'll tell you one more thing, Miss Junko is also 31 years old, the same as Miss Tako. And they all have brown hair. ”

"Yes, I think they could be sisters."
