The unscrupulous detective in Conan

Chapter 1215 Nakamori: I can tell at first glance that you are not a human being!

Painting interior.

Takeyori Iikawa dragged his father-in-law in, and before his father-in-law turned around, he took out a black square box from his pocket and hit his father-in-law hard on the neck.

"Zi la la..."

A slight sound of electric current flashed by, and the old father-in-law who was hit by the electric baton began to twitch all over.

Oikawa covered his father-in-law's mouth to prevent him from making any sound due to the spasms all over his body.

Afterwards, my father-in-law lost consciousness due to the electric shock from the stun gun.

After laying his father-in-law gently on the ground, Ikawa took out a mobile phone from his pocket and placed it on his father-in-law. Then he took a deep breath and looked at the watch on his wrist: "Two minutes left..."

Thinking to himself, he looked at his old father-in-law lying on the ground, with a fierce light flashing in his eyes: "If you want to blame someone, you can only blame yourself for being too greedy!"

…………

Outside the door, Fujino's ears moved slightly and he heard the sound in the room.

"Just now this guy was walking around the room, as if he was setting up some kind of trap. From his movements, it seemed like he was trying to steal the painting?"

"Some kind of electric baton, or stun gun..."

"Stun someone and then kill him and put the blame on Kuroba Kaito?"

"But judging from Hawkeye's biological sensors, he probably hasn't killed anyone yet."

"Why didn't he kill him on the spot?"

Several thoughts flashed through Fujino's mind. He couldn't understand what Mr. Ikawa was doing. He then asked the two people next to him, "Did you hear any sound?"

"sound?"

"No."

Conan and Hakuba shook their heads, indicating that they heard nothing.

Fujino nodded silently when he heard this, and was not surprised when he thought that his hearing was beyond the level of ordinary people.

However, he didn't quite understand why the stun gun could make people unconscious.

If it was a bigger stun gun, it would be easier as it would have enough power and battery capacity.

But is this portable little thing really able to give people 100% electric shock?

And the sound is so small...

What kind of black technology is this?
Fujino thought so in his heart, and as he thought about it, he finally complained without words.

Well, in the world of science with a very high level of technology, this makes sense.

After a moment's thought, he looked at Ikawa who had not yet killed anyone in the room, and chose to continue waiting in silence.

He wanted to see what other drama this old guy wanted to perform.

After a while, Ikawa came out of the room, still mumbling: "Dad, please don't be so stubborn!"

"I'll go find Inspector Nakamori and persuade you!"

As he said this, he turned around and locked the door.

"Mr. Oikawa, what happened?"

"My father-in-law wants to protect Qinglan alone. He stays in the studio and won't come out no matter how much we persuade him."

Hakuba asked Oikawa who came out in confusion, and Oikawa glanced at his watch and said as he walked away: "I'll go find Inspector Nakamori and persuade him!"

"Then why did you lock the door?"

At this time, Fujino suddenly asked him.

Oikawa explained anxiously, "Of course it's for safety... I won't say any more. It's almost time as Kidd said. I'm going to find Inspector Nakamori!"

With that said, Oikawa walked quickly towards the monitoring room.

Just as he was about to walk out of the corridor outside the studio.

The surroundings suddenly became dark.

"power failure?"

"Is Kidd here?"

The sudden change made the guards on both sides look serious.

After a moment of hesitation, Ikawa turned around and walked to the door and knocked:

"Dad, please stop making trouble!"

"Kid is coming soon!"

"Dad?!"

"Can you hear me?!"

Oikawa shouted as he knocked on the door, looking extremely panicked.

Then the key fell to the ground.

There was a crisp sound.

Fujino: "..."

Can you please act more realistically?

You threw away your key yourself. Are you sure you have studied acting skills in the Rice Flower District?

Fujino looked at Ikawa who threw away the key with his own hands, and had something to complain about in his mind but he didn't know whether to say it or not.

"What happened!"

"Just after that old man went in, there was a sudden power outage!"

Ginzo Nakamori ran over to check the situation because of the power outage, and the guard standing at the door reported the situation truthfully.

Hearing this, he frowned and felt unhappy: "Why did he run in?"

Ishikawa answered his question: "When I was out, he suddenly ran in, saying that he didn't trust the police and detectives at all and wanted to protect the painting himself. He is a stubborn person, and I didn't know what to say, so I wanted to find you to persuade him. I locked the door just in case, but who knew that the power went out suddenly."

"I accidentally lost the key when I was opening the door..."

"..."

Fujino just quietly watched the son-in-law who wanted to kill his father-in-law act out:

"Should I suddenly kick the door open from this side and give him a nipple-breaking blow?"

"Won't his murder plan be ruined?"

"No, he can still argue like that. Kidd knocked his father-in-law unconscious, but I guess nothing will happen to him in the end."

"If the old father-in-law had gone a little crazy, I would probably have chosen to forgive him."

"Well, keep watching and catch him red-handed when he kills someone."

Fujino reasoned in his mind about the consequences of kicking the door directly.

Finally I chose to continue watching the show.

Then, the door over there was kicked open.

With a bang, the window next to the easel was broken, and at the same time a thud was heard.

Everyone filed in and looked towards the window, but Conan focused his attention on the painting and shouted, "Look, the painting is gone!"

With his shout, everyone turned their attention to the painting, so that no one noticed that in the dark studio, Jichuan was quietly groping in the darkness towards a faint light in the right half of the studio.

(It is confirmed that Conan is the murderer's accomplice.)
Ishikawa put away the phone, groped towards his old father-in-law, confirmed the location of his neck, and then took out a knife from his inner pocket.

That’s right, this was his plan. While everyone’s attention was focused on Kaito Kid and the painting, he would kill his father-in-law.

Just when he was about to kill his father-in-law...

I felt as if my body was hit by a large truck, followed by a muffled "bang" sound in my ears.

Oikawa just felt dizzy.

Then, a dazzling light appeared before his eyes.

When his eyes adjusted to the light, he realized that Detective Fujino was holding a glowing object of unknown origin, staring at him. "?"

Everyone who heard the noise also looked over.

Then, they turned around and saw Fujino kicking Oikawa.

Everyone silently questioned what Fujino was doing.

Conan was secretly worried in his heart: "Will Fujino kick someone to death?"

Bai Ma Tan was the first to ask, "Why did you kick him?"

"Because he wants to kill someone. Don't you see there's an old man lying over there?"

Fujino pointed to the knife that had fallen beside him: "The knife is out. It is reasonable and legal for me to attack the criminals who are committing crimes in an emergency, right?"

"!!!"

Everyone looked at the knife that fell on the ground and was stunned.

Then he looked at Ikawa, whose eyes were full of stars, and immediately understood what was going on.

It must be our Metropolitan Police Department's wise and powerful advisor Fujino who anticipated the criminals' plan to kill people and stopped the crime!

Although I don’t know the motive or the process, at least I know the result.

Fujino looked at Oikawa quietly, and then said: "Do you have anything else to say?"

"For example, you can say that your father-in-law was knocked unconscious by Kaito Kidd's electric baton?"

"The painting was also stolen by Kaito Kidd or something..."

"And then you stand up, pick up the knife and fight back?"

There was some anticipation in Fujino's eyes when he looked at Ikawa, and he even rubbed his hands unconsciously, intending to prepare for what was to come.

Oikawa: “…”

Why do I have a bad feeling?
Recalling the articles this detective had written in some gossip reports, such as "Killing without blinking an eye", "Exploiting legal loopholes to persecute criminals", and "Criminals also have human rights", he felt his scalp tingling.

He didn't want to be beaten up and sent to the ICU.

He shook his dizzy head and got up from the ground: "I admit it."

"Admit it?"

Fujino's eyes dimmed and he felt a little disappointed.

"???"

Conan and Hakuba asked a series of question marks at this time.

The two of them looked at Fujino and then at Oikawa, and no matter how hard they tried, they couldn't figure out how Fujino deduced that this guy wanted to kill his father-in-law.

No, man, we still doubt it, so you just do it directly?
Are you open?

Fujino: If it’s not closed, it’s the same as not opening.

Kneeling down to admit his mistakes, Ishikawa began to talk about why he wanted to kill his father-in-law.

He painted three paintings in total, namely Red Lotus, Gold and Pure White. These three are considered to be Flowers, Birds, Wind and Moon, and this one, Qinglan, is the last wind among Flowers, Birds, Wind and Moon.

The same buyer bought the first three paintings.

Ishikawa's old father-in-law found the buyer and negotiated a higher price than before, asking him to paint the last wind. He did not want to paint the wind represented by the tornado that killed his wife.

Although he could understand that he wanted to earn money to pay for his wife's medical expenses after spending all his family savings, his wife had already passed away and he could not think of any reason to pick up the brush and paint Qinglan. He really could not think of how to explain to the sponsor who had already bought the painting.

So he had no choice but to try this trick and planned to return the money on the pretext that the painting was stolen by Kaito Kid.

But his old father-in-law disagreed and said that he was going to tell everything to others to expose the truth that his operation was just a false illusion he made up.

As a painter, Ikawa cannot accept this.

This was a stain on his reputation and the end of his life as a painter.

Then, he thought of adding the plan of killing his father-in-law to his plan of pretending that the painting was stolen, and killed his father-in-law.

Oh, by the way, it hasn’t been killed yet.

"Sure enough, painters are all a bit extreme."

Fujino felt a little speechless when he saw Ikawa's reason for murder.

But it makes sense if what he said is true.

"Inspector Nakamori!"

At this moment, a policeman in uniform suddenly rushed into the room and shouted, "We found Qinglan who was stolen by Kaito Kidd!"

"Nani?"

Ginzo Nakamori just heard that Qinglan has never been drawn.

Looking at Qinglan in front of me, I felt that things were a little outrageous.

I couldn't help but ask, "Where did you find this Qinglan?"

"I found this painting in Mr. Kanhara's bedroom!"

As he said this, he also took out a paintbrush: "There is another paintbrush next to the painting, and there are bite marks on it. It should be Mr. Ikawa's paintbrush. It must have been stolen by Kid at the same time!"

"Is that right?"

Nakamori narrowed his eyes, took the painting, looked at it, and looked at the man in front of him suspiciously.

Fujino also stared at the man, his eyebrows twitching uncontrollably, thinking to himself: "Douzi is really bold..."

Bai Ma leaned forward to take a look, then touched his chin and said, "The painting style looks like Mr. Oikawa's, but the brushwork is too rough..."

As he said this, he looked at the pen with the bite marks on it and said, "Could it be that Mr. Kanhara bit the pen with his teeth and drew it bit by bit?"

Conan suddenly spoke up at this time: "So, in fact, when Mr. Kanhara said that he had exposed something, he originally meant that he had already drawn Qinglan, and he could use the Qinglan he drew instead, so there was no need to do this, right?"

As he said this, he looked at Takeyori Ikawa with a hint of feeling and said, "It seems that Mr. Kanhara has risked his life to match your painting style."

Bai Ma Tan agreed, "I guess it's to recover some of your losses. After all, he saw you spend all your family's wealth to save his daughter over the years."

"Why didn't he say so earlier..."

In response to Oikawa's question, Hakuba Tan replied: "Of course it's because he can't say it. Even though he has tried his best to imitate your style, if this matter is exposed, then your reputation will really be tarnished."

"Considering this, I think he didn't say it in the end."

Ikawa was stunned for a moment as he looked at the painting, and then he was filled with pain.

He originally thought that his father-in-law was forcing him just for money so he could enjoy a comfortable life in the future, but he didn't expect that his father-in-law would be so desperate.

After all, only he, as a painter, knows how torturous it is to paint with a pen held between teeth.

That’s when Oikawa put on the mask of pain.

The sound of handcuffs being snapped was heard inside the studio.

Ginzo Nakamori sneaked up to the policeman who found the painting, took out handcuffs and handcuffed him and himself together.

He showed a smug and slightly vulgar expression: "Kid, you finally showed up!"

"what?"

The disguised Kuroba Kaito was confused for a moment: "Officer, what are you doing?!"

Nakamori Ginzo shouted, "Kid, stop pretending. I can tell at a glance that you are not human!"

Kuroba Kaito: "..."

So if I am not a human, what else can I be?

After complaining silently in his heart, he said, "Hey, officer, a murder almost happened here just now. I'm just a guy who came here to deliver a painting to clear up the misunderstanding between the two of them. Do you think you need to arrest me?"

"And I didn't steal anything, did I?"

"I take care of that!"

"I only have eyes for you!"
