"..."
Maki Itsuki's brow twitched as she looked at the little girl in front of her.
At thirty-seven, she knew perfectly well that she was no longer young...
But what did she mean, her makeup was too thick?
Wasn't that basically saying, "Old Auntie, you've put on so much makeup it's soaked right into you"?
Could she show her a little respect?
Maki Itsuki took a deep breath and calmed herself. She's just a child. Don't get angry. Don't get angry!
"It really is on her face."
Following Ai's lead, Fujino sniffed again. This time, he did catch the scent of almonds. After a moment's thought, he said, "In that case, Miss Maki, if your fingers picked up some of the foundation from your face, you could be poisoned by touching anything that got onto it."
He looked at Maki Itsuki. "You haven't touched your face with your fingers, have you?"
"I..."
Maki Itsuki froze. "I pinched my nose to pop my ears in the restroom just now."
Fujino pondered that for a moment. "Then you probably got cyanide on your fingers."
"If you'd eaten that piece of chocolate earlier, you might have died on the spot."
Maki Itsuki: "...?"
She trusted Fujino completely.
When he said there was poison on her face, she went pale and fell into a panic.
"Huh? That's so weird!"
Conan stood up from his seat.
He hadn't expected to run into a murder case on this trip, on top of trying to catch Kaito Kid...
So it really was Fujino's fault!
Conan was certain of it.
But since there was a case, he had to make his presence felt somehow.
Playing the curious child again, he raised the obvious question. "Why is there poison on Auntie Maki's face?"
Everyone turned toward Sakai Natsuki. If
