The originally warm lemon tea melted into molten lava upon entering my mouth, scorching every corner of my palate, as if trying to burn everything away.
original.
Spitting it out at this point is the right choice.
however--
Matsumoto Sayuri gritted her teeth and swallowed all the "magma" in her mouth. Instantly, a burning pain spread down her esophagus.
Cough!
He kept coughing up blood.
His consciousness was already somewhat blurred.
Matsumoto Sayuri's beautiful eyes dimmed, her heart filled with sorrow. Since he wanted this outcome, then so be it, let it all end here!
As consciousness fades into darkness.
She remembered Xia Ye's last look.
That look in his eyes seemed to be—disappointment?
really--
No wonder he was praised by his father as an elite member of the Metropolitan Police Department.
He should already know all this.
only--
This guy really doesn't know how to be gentle with women!
Couldn't you have stopped me?
very painful!
when--!
Boom-!
The sound of the lemon tea can and Matsumoto Sayuri's body hitting the floor simultaneously echoed in the locker room.
Outside the locker room.
Conan, who hadn't gone far, suddenly changed his expression.
"What was that sound?"
"It came from the locker room!"
Xiaolan has keen senses, so she is very certain.
"Xia Ye?"
Yuanzi tugged at Xia Ye's sleeve.
As intelligent as she was, she already understood that Xia Ye probably knew something. Otherwise, why would he be so calm when there were suspicious noises coming from the locker room?
Let's go back and take a look.
Xia Ye sighed.
She's a beautiful bride, and her personality is quite nice. Let her suffer a little; let's step in and save her now!
"teacher!"
Xiaolan hurriedly pushed open the door, and the scene that came into view made her and Sonoko cover their mouths and scream!
Just moments before, Matsumoto Sayuri had been chatting and laughing with everyone, but now she lay unconscious on the ground.
Bright red blood kept flowing from her cherry-like mouth, which was covered in lipstick, and it had already pooled on the ground!
Her pristine white wedding dress was covered in large bloodstains, a truly shocking sight!
The can of lemon tea she had been holding fell to the ground beside her, the remaining tea gushing out, its clear liquid contrasting sharply with the slightly darkened blood.
"how come!?"
Xiao Lan's beautiful eyes widened in disbelief, and she murmured softly:
"It was fine just now—"
"It's probably poisoning!"
Conan had already crouched down next to Matsumoto Sayuri and begun examining the scene. Relying on his keen observation skills, he quickly discovered half a capsule that hadn't yet dissolved in the spilled lemon tea.
"Xia Ye!"
Sonoko took Natsume's hand and pulled him to Sayuri-sensei's side, her little face pleading:
"No matter what, save the teacher first!"
She had a pretty good idea that Xia Ye's dislike for the teacher stemmed from what was happening now. However, the reason could be discussed later, and the culprit (Zhao De Zhao) could be ignored for now. Saving people was the most important thing right now!
"Good~"
Xia Ye knelt down and helped Matsumoto Sayuri up.
Her body felt limp.
Xia Ye could only let her lean against him as several silver needles were quickly inserted into various acupoints on her chest.
She was wearing a strapless, low-cut wedding dress, which saved Xia Ye the trouble of helping her take off her clothes.
Well, it wasn't really that troublesome...
Xia Ye was quite happy to agree.
The silver needles have been set up.
Xia Ye activated his true energy.
Matsumoto Sayuri, still unconscious, frowned deeply. Natsume gently lifted her face down, and she immediately vomited.
"Cough, cough, cough!"
With a violent cough.
Matsumoto Sayuri slowly opened her eyes.
Seeing the worried faces of Ran and Sonoko, and Natsume holding her in her arms, he paused for a moment, then seemed to understand something, and asked in a dry voice:
"Did you save me?"
"It was Xia Ye who saved her~"
Seeing that Ms. Sayuri's face was still a little pale but she was out of danger and had regained some spirits, Sonoko winked mischievously and began to liven up the atmosphere:
"Teacher, would you like to repay me with your body?"
"Okay~"
Matsumoto Sayuri smiled, her appearance strangely beautiful, possessing a unique and endearing charm.
"what?"
Sonoko was a little dumbfounded.
You actually agreed!
"Hehe, just kidding~"
Matsumoto Sayuri swallowed, moistening her throat which felt like it was on fire, her beautiful eyes filled with a complex and indifferent expression:
"But it really hurts!"
"Sayuri!"
The locker room door was pushed open forcefully.
Conan, who had been kicked out to inform everyone, finally rushed in with Manager Matsumoto and a large group of police officers.
Seeing his daughter covered in blood and the large pool of blood on the ground, Manager Matsumoto instantly radiated a murderous aura, and the atmosphere at the scene became incredibly tense!
Chapter 259 Matsumoto Sayuri's Resolve
Although the wedding almost turned into a funeral.
But the response time this time was also excellent, after all, it was a police wedding, so the majority of the attendees were police officers.
Manager Matsumoto took Sayuri Matsumoto from Natsume's arms, his face serious to the point of being almost ferocious:
"Xia Ye, I'm leaving it to you!"
Logically speaking, with the heads of the first, second, and third departments all present, it shouldn't be Xia Ye's turn to be in charge of the site, given that she lacked both the position and experience.
however--
Manager Matsumoto knew his subordinates' capabilities very well. If today's case had been handed over to Inspector Megure, it would have been ridiculous if he had concluded that it was a suicide!
Inspector Megure is also very open-minded.
He patted Xia Ye's shoulder with a serious expression:
"Xia Ye, handle the case properly!"
Matsumoto, the manager, doted on his daughter, and his subordinates naturally dared not disobey his orders. As a result, Natsume has now become the highest-ranking commander on site.
Xia Ye did not refuse.
Regardless of Matsumoto Sayuri's attitude.
As a police officer, finding criminals is his duty, especially criminals who don't evoke much sympathy. Xia Ye won't let him go just because the victim wants to protect him!
"Ms. Matsumoto~"
Xia Ye glanced at Matsumoto Sayuri, who had been carried to the sofa by Manager Matsumoto, and said calmly:
"I'm going to start!"
"..."
Matsumoto Sayuri, her face still somewhat pale, remained silent for a moment, then a poignant smile appeared on her lips:
"Then I'll leave it to you, Xia Ye~"
She still had a little something to hide, but looking into Xia Ye's calm and clear eyes, she couldn't utter a single word that would disrupt the investigation. After all, Xia Ye had practically made it clear that she knew everything.
and--
Matsumoto Sayuri looked to the other side.
There, her fiancé, Toshihiko Takasugi, stood frozen in place, his expression complex, seemingly lost in thought.
Sighed softly.
Matsumoto Sayuri closed her eyes and buried her face in her father's chest. Well, she had done all she could. That was it.
"The test results are out!"
The forensic investigators quickly presented Xia Ye with the examination report. Hmm, attending their superior's daughter's wedding with a full set of tools—these forensic personnel are certainly more dedicated than the police officers!
Sodium hydroxide~
Xia Ye immediately spotted the ingredient in the "poison": high-purity sodium hydroxide!
Sodium hydroxide is a white crystalline powder in its dry state. It dissolves in water, becoming a highly corrosive solution.
Anyone who has gone through junior high school knows this thing.
and so.
After Xia Ye mentioned sodium hydroxide.
Many people's eyes immediately turned strange.
Ran and Sonoko looked at Sayuri-sensei in shock, finally understanding why Natsume had seemed somewhat disdainful of her at the beginning of the day—this was just too much...
That's too humiliating!
Sodium hydroxide—
Ran and Sonoko exchanged a silent glance. The police officers also seemed hesitant, but Conan, focused solely on the case, frowned gravely and reminded them:
"Compared to other poisons, sodium hydroxide is extremely corrosive. Most people would immediately notice if they ingested it, and spitting it out would only damage their mouth. But Ms. Sayuri's injuries—"
