The Phone Death Case
Author: Kazumi Kairi or Kairi-chan
This is my very first 'Tantei Gakuen Q' aka Detective School Q. There was once this reviewer asks me if there would be couple in this story. Well, I was trying to make it but you'll find it out soon. Also there was one asks if the Urban Legend of the Phone Death was fictional or something, believe me this was actually based from a true incidents and I watched that from Discovery Channel every Wednesday seven o'clock. And I loved supernatural phenomena. And oh I forgot the meaning of 'Shiranai' from the 5th chapter, it means 'I don't know.' Sorry for the confusion.
To some reviewer who gave such a nice compliment about my fic, I'm really flushed at what you've said but I'm not really sure if the creators of DSQ would see about this fic. Although I'd be very glad if they liked to make my story into anime that would make really interesting, but I'm not all sure on how they could see my work. Let's all hope on that.
School's now about to start ARGH! Another school year with another unexpected events that awaits for me. AND I'M NOW A 2nd YEAR HIGHSCHOOL! That means it'll take few weeks to update the next chapter/ stories. Hate 'em! And oh please don't mind it okay, it's just that I'll have a majority of struggles on these homeworks, projects, researches and everything so that means it'll take few days or weeks to make me continuing typing or writing for the upcoming chapter. WAH! Summer Vacation was a really short ones and I've only started writing this fic since summer. Oh well. Please enjoy reading my 6th chapter.
First I'd like to thank the FF reviewers:

Let's review from the previous chapter:
The Class Q finally found the mystery of the connection how Harada Risuke died while she was inside of her room. They went back to the living room where all the suspects. What would they prove to the suspects who had been lying to them? Was it Wakamiya Akito, the Harada's driver? Harada Lia, the only daughter of the two dead couple? Atsuki Mishiko, the Harada's household maid? Moriko or was it Edo the two gardeners? Find out.
Event 6 Conclusion
The Class Q are now in the living room, where the suspects are waiting in there while they're doing their investigation. The young detectives were all determined at what they were about to face in reality, including Ameki and Hitori who are just new to investigating in this case.
"Sorry that it took long enough for us to investigate." Said Kinta.
"It was nothing… so were you able to solve it?" Mishiko asked.
"We all find out that everything that cause Mrs. Risuke's death was actually nothing but a murder." Ryu announced.
"First let us ask you one more question." said Ameki, "Has anyone of you heard an urban legend of the death phone call from Boston?"
"I think I have heard one." Moriko and Edo admitted.
"So do I but I only think it's nothing but a mere story." Lia admitted. "Why are you asking?"
"You might not going to believe it but you see this case was similar to that story." Said Kazuma. "The urban legend of the death phone when someone have died, you'll hear the person that you loved from the grave. And then you die."
The suspects were all gasped and shocked at what Kazuma have said. The case was similar to the death of Mrs. Risuke and Mr. Daiki? How was it possible to make the two adults' death similar to that mere story?
"Even though it has similar to that story there are only three clues." Said Kyu.
"The first clue was the sound and the tape recorder." Said Meg, "Ryu-kun and I found this tape recorder under the bed of Edo and Moriko's bedroom."
"You see this tape recorder has the voice of Mr. Harada Daiki probably before he dies." Said Kyu.
"Listen to his voice very carefully." Ameki told them.
Meg placed the tape recorder on the coffee table and pushed the play button to let the suspects to hear what's on in it. Everyone were really anxious at it yet they really decided to listen to it carefully to hear if the voice on the tape recorder was really Harada Daiki or something.
"This is… my dad!" Lia shouted.
"You're right, Lia. It's your father on this recorder." Akito agreed also looking shocked as he hears the voice.
"But why does Harada-sama's voice is in here?" Edo asked to the young detectives.
"That's what I thought so too." said Meg, "But listen carefully behind Mr. Daiki's voice please."
Lia, Akito, Mishiko, Moriko, and Edo were anxious at what the pink haired girl have instructed them. Of course they were really curious on what it is.
"That what we'd like to know too but maybe Ameki might have known it since she's a gifted of clairaudient." Said Hitori.
"Clairaudient? A person who could hear things that we don't?" Moriko asked.
"That's right, Moriko." Said Ryu.
Ameki looked at the suspects carefully as she was trying to read to their minds. Then she looked at her friends who are all looking at her. And then voice out.
"The reason why Mr. Daiki's voice was there is because the murder must've have neared to him unexpectedly he recorded secretly." Said Ameki. "This voice was been recorded three or more weeks before to his death."
"So that means when Okasan answered the phone…" said Lia,
"That's right, Lia. Someone must have used this thing to let it believe that it was her husband's voice from the graveyard." Said Kyu.
"That is a very clever trick to do when this culprit does its way to make sure that it's a mystery." Said Ryu.
"Does that mean that there is someone who did the killing on both?" Kinta asked.
"No, that wouldn't be a problem at all, Kinta. The killer must've calculated when Mr. Daiki will die. In order to make him die, the killer probably has his own cellphone or goes to a phone booth." Answered Hitori.
"Then Otousan did die while he was talking." Whispered Lia.
"And this how it ends to our first clue." He said.
They took the tape player and the recorder away, and then Ryu will do the continuation to their explanations of this murder case.
"The 2nd clue was Mrs. Risuke's drink." Said Kinta.
"That? We all know that she drinks wine." Said Moriko.
"You're wrong, Moriko. My Mom drinks Champagne only." Lia corrected him. "She doesn't like wine."
As Moriko said a small comment about the drink, Ryu gave quick eyes, which gave him a dead shot. This made the gardener to keep his mouth shut and let the young detectives to finish to their explanation/theory of this case.
"You see, the champagne she drinks wasn't champagne except she drank coke." Ryu continued.
"What? So you're telling us that someone might have switch that drink?" shouted Akito.
"Precisely, and to make it clear. Kinta found a spilled drink that was on kitchen's floor." Kyu answered. "So it was either someone must've been there and knocked it over accidentally and then poured it on the wrong drink."
The suspects were all quiet at this, sure that they were amazed that these young detectives were getting close on how it really happen to Mrs. Risuke's death. Hitori has his eyes really serious on it, yet no one seems to be noticing that his eyes were beginning to change its color.
"And finally the 3rd clue is her medicine pills." Said Hitori.
"Her medicine pills?" Akito wondered.
"Since some of you have known that Mrs. Risuke usually drinks this either to calm her down or she was sick. But there's something else that may lead to her death." Said Kazuma.
"There's a use of a dangerous poison inside of it." Said Meg.
"And that is?" said Mishiko wondering at it.
Kyu and Ryu looked at the brunette haired lad and nodded their heads as a signal to show the suspects. Hitori took out a small bottle from his pocket. Lia, Mishiko, Akito, Edo and Moriko gasped to see the bottle's front that were label on it.
"THAT'S THE POTASSIUM CYANIDE!" Edo exclaimed.
"HOW ON EARTH DOES IT GETS HERE?" Akito yelled.
"That has been already dispose right after Okasan quits being a doctor!" said Lia sacredly.
"Well this was found on the kitchen as a disguise as honey. Thankfully if it wasn't Hitori's strong sense Kinta might have die if he tried to drink or eat it." Said Meg.
"Yeah…" Kinta whispered.
"But what does it has to do with it?" Edo asked curiously.
"Yes, and what does it has?" Moriko also asked.
Ameki felt a strange feeling that shots on her neck, she could feel the bad feeling that she had ever felt it that way. Ryu had noticed at Ameki fast sensation yet he continues to keep his cool. Then Hitori began to smile out mysteriously that Meg and have noticed it very quickly at first glance.
"I'm glad that you really asked, Moriko and Edo. This was put on Mrs. Risuke's pills secretly." Said Hitori. "In order to make it simple the killer must've been putting it's inside earlier before Mrs. Risuke takes her medicine."
"And to our guess that killer must have either found this from the disposal or took it some extra in her cabinet." Said Kazuma.
"But that's not all! The killer who've done it all must be one of you three." Said Ryu.
"Huh? Why us three?" Edo asked.
"It's because one of your alibis were very suspicious only Akito and Lia has good alibis." Said Kazuma.
All the clues were already explained to the suspects. Akito and Lia were not the most suspicious ones in the Class Q's list that only leads Mishiko, Moriko and Edo left on it.
"Three clues leads to one answer!" said Kyu.
"And the killer is…" Ryu as he began to speak out.
Event 6 Ends
Kairi: Aha… I'm really tired at this sixth chapter and oh I'm terribly sorry that this chapter was also a cliffy again. After all in this chapter there would be a long explanation on how the murderer did his way to make it a mystery of Harada Risuke's death. The name of the murderer shall be reveal at the end of this story's chapter. Also I'm very happy that some of you liked my omake. And there's another omake below and this time it'll be Ameki on the spotlight. If you're expecting more of the omake of the one of the Class Q characters with my two original characters, I'll be thinking of something else. By the way if some of you are thinking the pairings of this fic, I'm terribly sorry I don't have any clue to make either a RyuxMeg or KyuxMeg. And I just noticed that I put a small MegxRyu from one of the previous chapter that I wrote, that means I still haven't thought any good romance relationship for those three characters. That is all I have to say for now and please be patient just a little bit okay? Thanks.
Preview on the next chapter:Class Q has now already explain to the suspects on what they've gathered on their searching inside of the Harada house. The thing that is now left, which only three suspects were remained on their list except for Lia and Akito who aren't suspicious. So which of the three is the real mastermind to this case? Mishiko, Edo or Moriko? Find out on the final chapter of 'The Phone Death Case', Event 7 Murderer Reveals!. There could be only ONE ANSWER!
Omake:
Ameki was in some department store probably she's in a pet store. She was looking at the cute husky dog that was on the display window where most customers and other people could look at the cute tame creature. For Ameki she looks really enjoying watching at the husky.
"It looks like you're getting much bigger than the last time I've visited." Ameki whispered.
The young girl was staring at the cute dog very admirably but then her expressions changed into sadness. As she seems to be seeing something very sad within the dog's eyes that most other people couldn't do it.
"Poor thing, I wonder who will going to adopt you." She whispers sadly.
"Ne, Dad! I want that cute dog." Exclaimed the little girl.
"You sure you want that do, dear?" the father asked.
"But that dog is really sad and he wants someone to go home." The girl pleaded.
"… Alright you win my dear. Let's get him to his new home." He answered.
The little girl was jumping up and down for joy that she gets her wish. Ameki was watching and listening at the father and daughter's conservation. And then she looks at the husky's eyes carefully.
"It looks like he finally has a good home." Ameki muttered with a smile. "I hope you get a very wonderful time with your new owner.
Ameki took one last look at the husky dog then gave a farewell smile to it. With that she turned her back and started to walk away.
"Well then I must go back now or Rowling and Silver will get worried of me." She told herself happily.
EndKairi: And that's how I end of my second omake. Wondering who are Silver and Rowling that Ameki mentioned? You'll find out later on. Anyway… see ya all again soon on the next chapter!
