Chapter 232 Sera Masumi vs. Hattori Heiji

After the previous case was over, everyone returned to the Mouri Detective Agency together, ready to rest for a while and then go out for a walk. On the way back, Hattori Heiji said that he had something to say, which was also the purpose of his visit this time.

The group found their seats at the Mori Detective Agency and sat down. Hattori Heiji couldn't sit still, so he stood up and began to tell his story.

"Actually, we're here because of a strange letter from a deceased person. He was the president of a design company in Tokyo. His last name was Wakamatsu. I've met him a few times before, but I heard he was murdered in his villa in Karuizawa last month..."

"Then why did he send you a letter? Could it be that he sent it before the incident?"

Sera Masumi tacitly agreed that this would be the showdown between the two of them. Such an abnormal thing was probably basically a murder, so she wanted to ask directly about what happened, at least what Hattori Heiji knew.

"I don't think it was sent by him. It should be from the murderer. Although it's signed by Wakamatsu Kohei, the beginning says that he wants to confess his crime to me...!"

Hattori Heiji took out the letter and began to show everyone his preliminary reasoning, and read out some provocative words in the letter.

After reading the letter, he took out a key and explained it to Yuanshan and Ye, revealing a very scary thing.

Of course, everyone present was an atheist, and they all believed that this must be a trick, and this trick could also explain why Wakamatsu Kohei's message before his death disappeared.

After discussion, everyone decided to visit Wakamatsu Kohei's main family in Tokyo. Originally, Hattori Heiji did not plan to bring Sera Masumi with him, but their duel had not yet ended, so he took her along anyway.

As soon as they arrived at the Wakamatsu house, his wife Wakamatsu Serika came to greet everyone in person. She was a little surprised to see one more person, but soon calmed down. Then all the people involved in this case appeared one after another and the first indirect murder weapon also appeared, which was the Baumkuchen.

Hua Lantian pulled Ayako to reject the invitation to eat the Baumkuchen together. Seeing this, Sera Masumi also refused. So the murderer's method can still be used. Hua Lantian will not save a murderer, who also killed his own father.

After being arrogant for a while, Wakamatsu Ikuro picked up a piece of the annual ring cake that was arranged in a special way and looked the largest, took a bite, and then fell to the ground.

After finding out that he was dead, everyone quickly called the police. Inspector Megure came over and after some investigation, it was found that Wakamatsu Serika was also dead. This sped up the progress of Hattori Heiji and Sera Masumi. After all, the death of two people was a big deal. They didn't know if the murderer would kill again, so they had to find the murderer as soon as possible.

In the end, with Conan's inadvertent reminder, both Sera Masumi and Hattori Heiji realized the technique and other things, but Hattori Heiji was still one step behind Sera Masumi, allowing Sera Masumi to figure out everything first.

In the end, Sera Masumi solved the case with the cooperation of Hattori Heiji who admitted defeat and the help of Conan who was gloating over his misfortune.

"Sera Masumi, you're quite good at it. Next time I come to Tokyo, I'll challenge you to a duel of deductions. Next time, we'll bring Kudo along...! Let's see who's the true high school detective...!"

"Okay, I'll be waiting for you, Hattori Heiji... oh and Kudo Shinichi...!"

"Heiji, you idiot, hurry up, hurry up, we should leave, otherwise we will miss the Shinkansen...!"

“Ohhh, okay…!”
