Despite having a certain impulse to kick the guy in front of her right to death.

Conan still explained how he had figured out the evidence that Funamoto was the killer.

It was roughly scattering beans and looking at the stars.

The process was that before the crime, the culprit played a game of the domestic Japanese bean-scattering tradition.

Bean scattering was basically a festival where beans were thrown, held on the night before the beginning of spring, with the meaning of driving away evil and welcoming good fortune. Its biggest flaw was that it left the venue covered in beans.

The pearl necklace had been taken apart at this time and thrown among the beans.

Then, under the guise of going to sleep, the culprit prepared rubber gloves in advance, went to his wife's room, came to the balcony to trick his wife into coming over to the window to look at the stars, and directly shot and killed her from his wheelchair, afterwards faking the crime scene to make it look like a home-invasion robbery.

And then, he just waited for the maid to clean the floor with a vacuum cleaner.

After all, the white beans looked very much like the color of the pearls, and if one didn't look closely, they couldn't be told apart.

The subsequent operation, then, connected with the purpose of coming here.

That garbage-collection commission they had discussed with everyone earlier had in all probability also been issued by this Funamoto family head.

The purpose was to retrieve the necklace, wait until later to pawn it, and fake a genuine home-invasion murder case.

Listening to the analysis of the case, Fujino felt like he couldn't quite understand it.

No, my man, what the hell does this have to do with the crime scene?
