Chapter 338 Murder in Progress (Ch 338)

Ten minutes later, Mika Mitsui was already in the bathroom cutting Ayumi’s hair, while Mochizuki and the others were waiting in the living room. Genta and Mitsuhiko were talking to each other, discussing what new hairstyle Ayumi would choose.

“Will it be long straight black hair? I’m so looking forward to it!”

Upon hearing this, Mitsuhiko couldn’t help but sneer at Genta, “Are you stupid? Ayumi has short hair now. Do you think Aunt Mika can perform magic? Can she cut Ayumi’s hair longer and longer?”

“Yes, that’s right.” Yuantai then foolishly realized that he was overthinking.

“Anyway, Ayumi-chan is so cute that she’ll look good in any hairstyle.”

Although they lowered their voices when discussing, Mochizuki and Xiaoai still heard it. Xiaoai felt speechless, “Children nowadays are really becoming more and more precocious.”

Conan was sitting not far away, drinking tea in silence. When he heard this, his mouth twitched twice. You sound like you are not a child anymore.

Not long after, Mika Mitsui came out of the bathroom. Genta and Mitsuhiko asked, “Aunt Mika, has Ayumi’s hair been cut?” Mika smiled and replied, “It’s already been cut.”

After saying this, Ayumi came out from behind Mika. Genta and Mitsuhiko looked at Ayumi expectantly, and then… were dumbfounded. “Huh? Why isn’t there any change?”

“Yeah…Isn’t this the same as when we just entered?”

At this time, Ayumi still had her original hairstyle, short hair with a pink headband, exposing her forehead. In the eyes of these two straight male elementary school students, Ayumi had never cut her hair, and they felt they were deceived.

Ayumi pouted unhappily and said, “Hate…” She was obviously looking forward to being praised, but Genta and Mitsuhiko said that she had not changed at all, which made her very unhappy.

Ai walked over and said sympathetically: “I think the change is obvious. Although Yoshida was cute to begin with, he looks cleaner and fresher now.”

Ayumi immediately smiled happily, rushed over and took Ai’s arm, “Ayumi-chan loves Haibara the most!”

My goodness, he changed his face so quickly? Wangyue secretly complained.

Xiao Ai smiled and didn’t push Ayumi away. It was obvious that she liked this little girl too.

It seems that Buai’s stock has risen sharply!

…

Mochizuki and the children rested for a while at Mika Mitsui’s house, and said goodbye to her and left at around eight o’clock. Ai sat in the passenger seat, responding to Ayumi in a few words, and occasionally looking at Mochizuki thoughtfully.

This was a somewhat puzzled look, because Ai noticed a lot of details.

“Oh, no, my phone is not in my pocket.” Mochizuki was driving and suddenly realized that his phone was not with him when he touched his pocket.

Ayumi, who was chatting with Xiao Ai, asked hurriedly: “Brother Mochizuki, did you forget to bring your cell phone when you went out?”

“No, I took my phone with me when I went out, and I checked the time on it.”

After hearing what Mochizuki said, Mitsuhiko said, “I know, it must have fallen into Aunt Mika’s house.”

“I guess so… Then I’ll take you home and then go get it from Miss Mitsui’s house.”

“That’s too much trouble. Brother Wangyue, why don’t you just take us to her house first? It’s still early and we’re not in a hurry.”

The children all said so, so Mochizuki turned the car around at the intersection and drove to Mika’s house again. No one else, including Conan, noticed the problem. Only Ai knew that Mochizuki’s phone was not left at Mika’s house, but that Mochizuki deliberately took the phone out of his pocket and put it on the sofa.

Ai fell into deep thought. Was Mochizuki doing this so that he could leave and then come back? Why did he do this?

…

In a blink of an eye, Mochizuki was back outside Mika Mitsui’s house. Through the Eyes of Death, he saw what was happening inside – the owner of the hair salon, Midori Goto, had come to Mika’s house at some point and was strangling Mika’s neck from behind with a clothes hanger.

Mika grabbed her neck in pain, trying to break free from the clothes hanger, but she was no match for it. (To read the exciting novels, go to Faloo Novel Network!)

“Looks like I’ve come at the right time…” Wangyue said to himself.

“Huh? Why is the door not closed?” Ayumi looked at the light coming through the half-open door and said, “Aunt Mika is so careless. How can she not close the door at night?”

Conan guessed: “Maybe he found Mochizuki-san’s phone and knew we would come back, so he simply left the door unlocked.”

Mochizuki pretended to open the door and called out, “Ms. Mitsui, are you in there?”

Midori Goto, who was strangling Mika’s neck, was startled when she heard the sound, and in her panic, Mika broke free. Mika fell to the ground, coughing continuously, and weakly shouted, “Help… cough cough cough… help…”[]

It was late at night and everyone was asleep. Mika’s cries for help could be heard clearly by everyone at the door.

Conan’s expression changed instantly, and Mitsuhiko became nervous, “Aunt Mika is asking for help!”

Without any hesitation, everyone rushed into the room as quickly as possible, and saw Mika lying on the ground coughing, and a woman in her forties standing there at a loss.

Everyone recognized the woman immediately as the owner of the hair salon, Midori Goto.

“Aunt Meixiang, are you okay?” The children ran forward quickly.

“Ms. Goto, why are you here?” Mochizuki first glanced at Midori Goto, then asked Mika, “Ms. Mitsui, what happened?”

Mika originally thought she was dead, but now Mochizuki and his group arrived in time to save her. She was both relieved and scared. “Ahem… the lady boss suddenly strangled me with a clothes hanger…”

Conan observed Mika’s neck and saw a thin and deep mark on the front of her neck. Although it did not cut the skin, it looked very scary. Turning his head to the side, he saw a clothes hanger made of steel wire on the floor, wrapped in blue plastic, and the hanger had been deformed.

“This… this is attempted murder!” Mitsuhiko cried out in disbelief.

Ayumi angrily asked (Good Zhao Zhao) Goto Midori: “Aunt Midori, why did you kill Aunt Mika?”

“No, I, I didn’t want to kill her. It was her who threw the hanger at me first.” Midori Goto explained with a terrified look on her face: “She wanted to resign, and I wanted her to stay, but she refused, so we had a fight. Then she threw the hanger at me.”

The children were stunned when they heard this. Your reason for killing someone is too weird, isn’t it? She threw a hanger at you, so you want to kill her?

Conan looked up at Mochizuki and said, “Brother Mochizuki, let’s call the police.”

“Okay.” Wangyue thought so too.

Goto Midori was so scared that she begged for mercy, “No! Don’t call the police, I was wrong, please forgive me. Mika, I didn’t mean to kill you, please don’t call the police.”

Mika completely ignored her pleas for mercy. Regardless of whether Midori Goto did it on purpose or not, it was a fact that Mika almost died in her hands, and Mika could never forgive her. “Mr. Mochizuki… Please help me call the police.”
