Senichi had the intention to call out to Hattori but was afraid that his voice might be too loud and disturb the couple inside the house.
It wasn't about being afraid of interrupting their intimate moment but more about considering Hattori Heiji. After all, he had entered the private residence without permission, essentially trespassing.
To avoid "startling the snake in the grass," Senichi had no choice but to give up. He just contacted the undercover detectives monitoring the area and asked them to ignore these three troublemakers.
Although the personnel around were all from the Arson Investigation Division, Senichi's special status, coupled with providing crucial information, naturally allowed his involvement in the case.
While the overall arrangement had to give Detective Yuminaga some face and follow his plan, there was no issue with requesting assistance or giving commands in specific situations.
In this short time, Conan and Kogoro Mouri also stealthily entered the yard. Through the partially closed curtains, they witnessed the scene inside the bedroom.
It seemed like divine intervention; by the time Hattori and the others saw the interior, the two had already donned their clothes.
"I'm going to take a shower. Could you please tidy up the room?" Ryoko Morozumi kissed the man and then headed towards the door.
Facing this situation, the three outside were momentarily stunned, only snapping back to reality when Ryoko Morozumi walked out of the bedroom.
But as soon as Ryoko Morozumi left, the man immediately got up and began searching through the room. The three outsiders, witnessing this, immediately realized his intentions.
"It's a pity, not placed there~"
However, before they could see what the man found, the door of the bathroom suddenly opened. Ryoko Morozumi walked out, looking at the man with a smile.
"Our intimate video from the love~love~ hotel. Fortunately, it's well hidden somewhere in the room. Of course, dear, I don't think you'll find it~"
Seeing Ryoko Morozumi, who was completely unruffled, the three immediately realized that she probably anticipated this scenario and purposely waited in the bathroom for his actions, revealing herself later to confront him.
"Ry...Ryoko..." The man looked at Ryoko Morozumi and his expression was somewhat unpleasant. However, since he was already in the wrong, he didn't know what to say for a moment.
"Don't be so angry~"
Ryoko Morozumi looked at the man and a hint of satisfaction appeared at the corner of her mouth. "I just wanted to make sure, Sensei, that you're not playing around and genuinely intend to divorce your wife to marry me.
This was just a precautionary measure. As long as you keep your word, I'll naturally become a devoted wife to you."
Saying this, Ryoko Morozumi turned and walked towards the bathroom while smiling. "Alright, my husband will be back soon. While I'm taking a shower, Sensei, please quickly get dressed and tidy up the room."
After this, everyone quietly returned to the car and recounted everything they had seen to Senichi.
"I really don't understand the thoughts of adults!"
Hattori Heiji, feeling somewhat bored after not gaining much, lay back in the seat with his hands behind his head after returning to the car.
"They're married, yet they still have affairs. If you don't like it, why get married in the first place?...
Uncle, your separation from your wife is surprisingly straightforward."
"Humph! Spare me your chatter..." Kogoro Mouri, with a cigarette in his mouth, expressed no emotion.
"Eh? Isn't that the salesman uncle from this morning?" Since Conan was kneeling in the front passenger seat, he quickly noticed a man approaching them from behind.
"Hmm? Why is he here again?" Kogoro Mouri found it strange after seeing the man and said, "Mrs. Morozumi wasn't very friendly to him this morning, right?"
"Yeah, she knocked all the products he was selling onto the ground without any courtesy," Conan added. "In this situation, it's hard to imagine why he would come back..."
However, as the chubby man passed by their car, he directly turned around and retraced his steps.
"It looks like Mrs. Morozumi's husband has returned."
Hattori made a speculation upon seeing the salesman abruptly turning back and the man entering the Morozumi residence.
The salesman quickly disappeared around the street corner after turning back, while the man took out his keys and entered the house.
Seeing this, Senichi quietly activated his super sense of smell.
No other reason—both the salesman and the man had motives to kill Ryoko Morozumi.
The salesman's motive might not be significant, but it couldn't be ruled out that Ryoko Morozumi had angered him, leading to impulsive murder or some hidden situation.
The Feng Shui master, originally being a lover, appeared to have the least motive. However, based on the information obtained after Hattori and the others, it seemed that the Feng Shui master and Ryoko Morozumi were not on the same page.
Judging from his behavior after applauding for love, it was evident that he was concerned about being blackmailed. It is possible that he didn't want a divorce, and the other party's coercion might have been his motive for resorting to murder.
As for the victim, there wasn't much to say. If he knew that his wife was having an affair with the Feng Shui master, his motive was probably the strongest.
But regardless, all three had motives to some extent. Given the confirmed method of murder being arson, how could Senichi not activate his super sense of smell?
After reopening his super sense of smell, Senichi closed his eyes and focused on sensing.
At first, there was nothing unusual in the scent. However, with the flow of air, a pungent gasoline smell quickly wafted from the back of the Morozumi residence.
"It's here!"
A glint of light flashed in Senichi's eyes. Without waiting for the people in the car to ask questions, he immediately picked up the walkie-talkie. "All teams, pay attention! Someone is pouring gasoline in the backyard of the Morozumi residence! Teams A and B, report the situation. If you see anyone, arrest them immediately!"
After issuing the command, Senichi immediately rushed down from the car towards the source of the smell. Hearing Senichi's words, Hattori and the others in the car were surprised but quickly followed Senichi, getting out of the car and running towards him.
However, compared to Kogoro Mouri, Hattori Heiji and Conan tactfully ran to the other side of the Morozumi residence yard. Apparently, considerate of them, they wanted to prevent the suspect from escaping and deliberately took a detour to encircle the area.
But this well-thought-out plan was destined to be in vain. When they entered the backyard of the Morozumi residence, they saw the culprit being pinned to the ground by several burly men. The overturned gasoline drum on the ground showed that the situation had been completely settled.
"It seems I've won again." Senichi looked at the two who were slower, smiling and waving his hand.
"Humph! You're using underhanded methods!" Hattori Heiji grumbled with an unhappy face.
Conan didn't say anything, but the expression in his eyes revealed the same sentiment as Hattori's.
At this moment, the two of them shared an unspoken thought: Super sense of smell! This is basically cheating!!
