Chapter 488 The Interrupted Wedding
In the lounge.
Maori Kogoro said helplessly: "In this case, the only method left is fingerprint comparison, right?"
Inspector Megure hesitated for a few seconds: "Indeed..."
Seeing that Inspector Megure was about to agree to this method, Masutori Rei became anxious: "No, if this kind of thing is done wrong..."
It would be fine if the murderer was really among the three people, but if she was wrong, wouldn’t she be gossiped to death by her relatives and friends?
Inspector Megure said in a deep voice: "That's true, but the only clue we have at the moment, apart from fingerprints, is that the murderer has a stye in his right eye..."
Shiratori Renzaburo: "But as Ms. Mio said, half a year has passed, and the needle marks must have disappeared."
He looked at Yihuli and asked, "Besides the needle hole, do you remember any other characteristics of the murderer? For example, his voice? The murderer made some threats when he was escaping. You should have heard his voice at that time, right?"
Yihuli shook her head: "That person was wearing a hood, so I couldn't hear his voice clearly..."
Ping Zhenghui said impatiently: "If that person's voice is very special, Li would have told the police half a year ago, right?"
Shiratori Rensaburo and Inspector Megure fell into silence, their brows furrowed.
Miyano Shiho secretly poked Yuya's waist and asked in a low voice: "Is the murderer really among those three people?"
Yuya shook his head: "No, Conan asked just now, those three people hiding their left hands is just a coincidence, but this groom..."
His eyes fell on the groom's left hand, which had the plaster removed and was covered with a pair of white gloves.
Miyano Shiho was a little surprised: "You suspect the groom? How is that possible!"
Yuya smiled faintly: "Everything is possible. Eliminate all impossibilities. No matter how incredible the remaining result is, it is the only truth."
Miyano Shiho was stunned, puffed up her cheeks and pinched the soft flesh on Yuya's waist threateningly: "I'm asking you something serious, you are telling me Sherlock Holmes' classic quotes here? Say it now!"
She already knew Youye clearly, and if he could say something like that, it meant that he must have known the truth.
"Hiss!" Yuya pulled the corner of his mouth, took Miyano Shiho's soft little hand into his hand, gently kneaded it, and then said, "Don't worry, just watch quietly."
Miyano Shiho glared at him, but still kept her mouth shut.
Inspector Megure thought for a long time but got no result. Suddenly he remembered that his two brothers were here today, so he looked at Yuya and Maori Kogoro expectantly: "Maori brother, Kamiya brother, what do you think?"
Maori Kogoro pinched his chin with a serious expression: "In my opinion, we should take the fingerprints of those three people..."
"No! Absolutely not!" Yihuli objected firmly.
Maori Kogoro laughed dryly and said, "Then I can't do anything about it, Inspector."
Inspector Megure looked at Yuya again, and Yuya shrugged his shoulders as well.
Inspector Megure sighed, his omnipotent brother is no longer able to do it today.
Just then, the door of the lounge was pushed open, and a police officer walked in: "Inspector, the staff at the venue said that it's almost time to prepare for the wedding."
Ping Zhenghui quickly responded: "Got it, we'll be there right away."
After saying that, he ignored other people's dissuasion and insisted on pushing Yihuli towards the door.
Yuya and Conan looked at each other and nodded slightly.
"Inspector Megure, let him go." Yuya called out to Inspector Megure who was about to follow him.
Inspector Megure turned around with a puzzled expression: "What are you talking about, Brother Kamiya? Next, I have to arrange for people to protect the wedding scene immediately..."
"Don't worry, Inspector Megure," Yuya raised his lips slightly, "Before that, there is something I need your help to do..."
Mu Mu Police Department:? ? ?

On the other side, there is a lounge for the stand-in bride and groom.
Takagi Wataru walked around outside and estimated that the matters of Sato Miwako and Miyamoto Yumi should be almost dealt with, so he returned to the door and knocked: "Officer Sato, Yumi, are you done?"
But no one inside answered.
Takagi Shigeru was a little confused. He pushed open the door and saw that the room was empty.
Just when he was confused, a police officer ran over and said, "Officer Takagi, Inspector Megure asked you to stay in the lounge for the time being. He will send someone to notify you when action is needed."
"Stand by?" Although Takagi Shigeru was a little confused, since it was Inspector Megure's order, he would naturally obey it, so he went into the lounge and sat down obediently.
He looked around and kept muttering to himself: Where did Officer Sato and Yumi go?

Wedding scene.
The groom Ping Zhenghui stood straight at the front of the auditorium. Under the guidance of the master of ceremonies, the closed door of the auditorium was opened.
The bride appeared at the door holding her father's arm, and those attending the ceremony burst into applause.
Accompanied by her father, the bride walked towards the groom step by step.
Ping Zhenghui looked at the bride who was getting closer and closer with burning eyes, and a barely perceptible smug smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Just as the father was about to hand the bride's hand to Ping Zhenghui, something strange happened.
"Give me a moment!"
A man wearing a black hood suddenly stood up. The people around him looked at his attire and instinctively realized that there was something wrong with this man. They screamed and quickly backed away.
"I haven't seen you for half a year. Do you two still remember me? Hehehe." The man with the mask sneered and put his hands in his arms, walking up to Ping Zhenghui and the bride.
The bride was so scared that she shrank behind Ping Zhenghui, but Ping Zhenghui did not show any nervousness or fear at all. Instead, he looked at the man in the mask calmly.
"Arrest this man immediately!" Inspector Megure shouted.
The two police officers responded and moved towards the hooded man.
“Don’t come over here!” The man with the mask suddenly took out his hand, which had been kept in his arms. With a flash of cold light, a sharp dagger appeared in his hand.
"Don't act rashly! I already knew there were police sneaking in here. Do you think I would come in without any preparation?"
Under the threat of sharp weapons, the police officers dared not act rashly and could only stop.
The masked man smiled smugly, turned around and pointed the knife at Ping Zhenghui: "Don't worry, I will leave here after I deal with these two people."
Facing the sharp dagger, Ping Zhenghui was not afraid at all. Instead, he raised his head and laughed: "Please don't continue to play this boring drama..." He looked at the masked man and smiled smugly, "Mr. Police Officer."
The masked man seemed a little surprised and quickly argued: "What nonsense are you talking about? I am the robber who broke into that woman's house half a year ago!"
The bride seemed a little scared and shrank even lower behind Ping Zhenghui.
Ping Zhenghui laughed: "If you are just joking, it's fine, but if you stop at that point, it will only make you more embarrassed. Because no matter what, you can't be the robber."
"Huh?" With a drawn-out tone, Youya put his hands in his pockets and walked out of the crowd.
He raised his hand to signal, and the man in the mask put down the knife obediently.
Yuya looked at Ping Zhenghui and a smile appeared on his face: "Mr. Ping, why are you so sure that he is not the robber?"
