Chapter 53 How to choose a cup
On the booth, Gao Yuan couldn't help frowning slightly as he looked at the lifeless Yamahara Qiuxi and the ferocious expression she left on her face.

Then he looked at several other audience members who were also at a loss on stage after drinking champagne, and found that they showed no signs of poisoning. Could it be that only the wine glass of Shuxi Yamahara was poisoned?
Thinking of this, Gao Yuan looked at the mountain beside him.At this moment, the young man also looked flustered, holding an empty tray in his hand, and looked at the few people on the stage with innocent eyes, as if he was praying for shelter.

However, at that time, Yamahara Qiuxi took a cup from the tray to drink at random, how did she manage to make her choose the poisonous cup?

However, one thing is certain, the murderer should be one of these people on the booth now!
Then after thinking for a while, his eyes turned to Ms. Ashiko Ashiko who just came out of the backstage—no, to be precise, this related person should also be counted.

However, although there was a period of time between the drinking of the alcohol and the onset of the poison, the poison occurred and died in such a short period of time. What kind of poison was used?
Confused, Gao Yuan went to the shattered glass, sniffed the wine scattered on the booth, and after careful identification for a while, he smelled a faint smell similar to bitter almonds—— It's cyanide!
However, if it is cyanide, isn't the speed of poisoning a bit slow?
But since the wine spilled from Yamahara Qiuxi's wine glass smelled of bitter almonds, it obviously meant that her wine glass was poisoned.And now the other spectators who drank champagne were not poisoned. It seems that the wine they drank was not poisoned.

Regardless of the speed of the poisoning, how did the murderer let Yamahara Qiuxi just get this glass of poisoned champagne?
"How? What did you find?"

Seeing that the situation at the scene had been maintained, You Xizi walked to Gao Yuan and asked.

"Cyanide."

Gao Yuan said, "It's just, why is it only in this glass of wine?"

After listening to Gao Yuan's words, You Xizi understood what was going on, looked under the booth, then came to the front of the stage, discussed with several reporters holding cameras, and then borrowed a few cameras to film the The camera of that scene.

Gao Yuan took the camera borrowed by You Xizi, operated the buttons on it, and immediately played the picture he wanted to see.

Dashan came to the booth holding several glasses of champagne.Qiuxi Yamahara took one of the cups—the one slightly to the right in the middle, and the movement was only for a second or two, without seeming to choose carefully.

I watched the shots from several other angles in a row, and it was the same scene.

"Not even a glance."

Gao Yuan frowned.

"No choice at all."

You Xizi also said solemnly, "Any thoughts?"

"There are only two possibilities I can think of at the moment."

Gao Yuan thought for a while and said, "Someone poisoned champagne casually and killed people at random, but Qiuxi Yamahara unfortunately chose that glass. Or the murderer used some method. I am sure that Yamahara will choose that glass."

Soon, Police Officer Megure arrived with the police and took over the scene.

"Oh! Isn't this Ms. Yukiko? And wise brother. Why are you here?"

Seeing Gao Yuan and You Xizi at the scene, Officer Mu Mu asked in surprise.

"Ah, Officer Megure, long time no see!"

Smiling, Yukiko greeted Officer Megure.

"Since Ms. Kiko is here, what about Yusaku?"

Police officer Mu Mu said, looking around.

"It's actually like this. This time, Yuzuo didn't come because he had something to do, so I invited Xiao Gaoyuan to join me in this commission."

Yukiko explained.

"Consignment? Can you explain in detail?"

After Officer Megure finished speaking, Yukiko and Takato explained everything that happened today to Officer Megure.

After listening to the narration of the two, Police Officer Mumu asked the police officer to call Dashan over and asked him about the threatening letter.

Dashan's full name is Dashangui, because the death scene of Yamahara Qiuxi just now was so shocking that he faced the police's questioning without reservation at this moment, and admitted the fact that he had sent a threatening letter to Yamahara Qiuxi.

"And did you poison the champagne?"

Inspector Mumu asked seriously.

"no!"

Somewhat flustered, Dashan Kei retorted fiercely, "I just followed the arrangement of Mr. Hori Ryosuke and brought the champagne to the stage!"

"Then why are you sending threatening letters?"

Police officer Meguro began to question him sternly.

"Because that woman's private life is indecent! She doesn't deserve to endorse 'Fushahui'!"

Faced with this question, Da Shangui roared loudly, which shocked the few people present.

"Why do you say that? I haven't found any relevant reports?"

Gao Yuan was a little puzzled about this.

"Because I've seen it! In the company, although I haven't seen who that man is! But it must be true!"

Da Shangui said affirmatively.

At this time, the forensic doctor had already done the most basic tests and informed Police Officer Mumu of the results.

After listening to the police officer Mumu, he asked the police officer to take Oyama Kei down first, and then looked at Gao Yuan and Yukiko.

"Just now the forensic doctor did the most basic examination on the deceased, confirming that the deceased died of cyanide poisoning. The technical department also inspected the scene, the wine scattered in the deceased's wine glass, and indeed detected the composition of cyanide, while the rest of the wine glass No cyanide was detected in the test. It is believed that the deceased died as a result of drinking poisoned alcohol."

"So, the problem really lies in the criminal method."

Gao Yuan said after hearing the result.

In that situation, no one at the scene could influence Ms. Yamahara Qiuxi's choice and let her choose the poisoned wine.So who and what method was used to complete the poisoning?
"There's something called 'forced choice.'"

Yukiko said at this time, "It feels like my own choice, but it is actually induced by others. This is often used in magic."

"But in that case, who can give Ms. Yamahara a psychological inducement?"

Gao Yuan shook his head, disapproving of this statement.

"Or there are some features on the cup that make Yamahara want to take that cup."

You Xizi thinks about another possibility, but Gao Yuan also denies it.

"In the pictures taken by the reporter, there is no mark on the cup."

At this moment, many of the onlookers in the audience had left, but Masami Hirota and the girl with short brown hair still stayed at the scene.

Masami Hirota looked at the police at the scene and said worriedly, "Shiho, why don't we go back first."

"It's alright."

The girl held her side face with her right hand, her elbow resting on her thigh, with an indifferent expression on her face, "Just wait until the new product of 'Fushahui' goes on sale later."

"That's it."

Faced with the girl's answer, Hirota Masami couldn't say anything, "But it's rare to go out to play together, and this kind of thing happens."

Hirota Masami said, looking at Takato and Yukiko on the booth.

"Speaking of which, those two people have been in charge of the situation since the beginning of the incident. Are they also police officers?"

The girl didn't speak. Looking at the two people talking to the police officer at the booth, and at the thinking man in the blue windbreaker, she sighed and thought to herself:

Are you really struggling with choosing a cup?But in my opinion, the time of poisoning is more concerned!
