The unscrupulous detective in Conan

Chapter 1331 The Fever Eagle
Before Fujino could say anything, Inspector Megure had already realized what was going on.

He then reasoned, "If that's the case, we could easily impersonate a food delivery person and get away with it..."

Satan looked utterly speechless: "Even so, I don't have a mirror to put on makeup..."

"Besides, those two horns on my hair are real hair, how can I wear a hat like that!"

"Besides, even if I'm pretending to be a food delivery person, I still need a delivery box!"

"I don't even have a delivery box."

"No boxes?"

Faced with Inspector Megure's doubts, Satan explained in a serious tone: "The delivery box was provided by the TV station. Even disregarding the makeup on my face and my hair, if I took the box, I would be immediately discovered."

As he spoke, his tone became somewhat impatient: "So, you still suspect me of being a murderer?"

"Even though the real murderer has already run far away, you're still clinging to me."

"Shouldn't we be focusing on catching that guy right now?"

"Well..."

When Inspector Megure heard this, he felt a little embarrassed because what the other person said was really true and hit the nail on the head.

It directly broke his defenses a little...

It can only be said that lies are not a killing weapon; the cruel truth is the sharpest knife!

Conan suddenly spoke up at this moment: "So, did you fold all these origami cranes while you were resting, Satan brother?"

"Didn't I already say that I sometimes fold origami cranes when I have free time..."

"So you smoked those cigarettes while folding origami cranes?"

"Yes, I'm doing fine work..."

Halfway through his sentence, Satan suddenly realized something and froze for a moment.

Conan's lips curled slightly upon seeing this: "Huh, that's strange. When making origami cranes, you're supposed to blow air into them to make them puff up, so why don't these origami cranes have any lip prints on them?"

"On the contrary, those cigarettes are covered in marks?"

"Brother Satan, what exactly is going on?"

After being asked three questions in a row, Satan was completely dumbfounded and stood there dumbfounded.

No, I've been tricked into revealing information?

Damn, I let my guard down even though I didn't kill anyone, but now I'm being labeled a murderer!
Satan panicked for a moment, looking around to find that everyone's eyes were on him.

Upon hearing this, Inspector Megure narrowed his eyes: "Mr. Satan, can you explain why?"

"..."

Satan was speechless for a moment. After struggling for a moment, he finally sighed helplessly: "Actually, I originally planned to kill this guy."

"?"

Conan silently typed a question mark.

Dude, aren't you going to say anything in response?
Why did you just admit it?
Just as Conan was filled with doubt, Satan spoke up again: "But during the execution of the plan, I suddenly felt that killing someone for this matter was a bit too strange, so I gave up the idea and even threw away the knife and raincoat I had prepared in advance. I plan to have a good talk with him."

"But when I got there, I knocked on the door for a long time but no one answered. I felt something was strange. When I pushed the door open, I found that the guy had been killed."

"I thought to myself, since the person has already been killed, why should I kill anyone else? I'm not a criminal anymore, so I gave up the idea of ​​killing and called the police."

"..."

Suddenly, everyone's gaze toward Satan turned strange.

That's a really well said...

He abandoned his plan, discarded the murder weapon, and intended to try and communicate with the victim...

Who are you trying to fool?

But since that's what they said, you don't have any evidence to refute them, right?

Inspector Megure couldn't help but retort, "So, if you didn't kill anyone, what are you trying to hide?"

Satan: "..."

Do you think I'm stupid?

Do you think I don't know that attempted murder is also a crime?
But that's not how you say it.

He explained, "If I said I had ever thought about killing him, wouldn't you just arrest me as the murderer?"

"And I've already said it, I have a grudge against him."

Mu Mu Thirteen: "..."

How much do you doubt our professional capabilities?

Satan: The investigative abilities of your Japanese police are indeed evident to all. As for whether they will arrest me as a murderer, it's hard to say.

Fujino, who had been observing silently from the shadows, suddenly spoke up: "So what was your motive for killing that guy?"

"It's a long story..."

"Then just pick the simplest one to say."

"..."

Satan was speechless for a moment, feeling that the detective in front of him was really quite impolite.

I finally managed to get myself together, so please let me finish!

After internally ranting for a moment, Satan began to explain: "Three years ago, I was hospitalized because of an illness. At that time, a little friend who admired me a lot would often write me letters and send me origami cranes..."

"But one day, the child suddenly stopped writing to me."

"I didn't think much of it at first, and I thought she had just moved on, but it wasn't until I was drinking with that guy last month that I realized why she hadn't been writing to me!"

"At that time, when he was drunk, he actually told me that he was going to use a live sacrifice to create some buzz!"

"A living sacrifice?!" Sato Miwako was stunned for a moment upon hearing this. "Could it be..."

“Yes, that kid committed suicide.” Satan said in a gloomy voice, “That guy wrote on our homepage that if you want a demon to be resurrected, you need a live sacrifice or something like that.”

"When I pressed him for details, he finally told me what the last letter the child wrote actually contained: 'I am very willing to offer my blood...' He even used this incident to hype up the idea that someone had committed suicide because of it..."

“I visited the child’s home and found that the child was indeed dead.”

"He committed suicide three years ago under mysterious circumstances."

Satan gritted his teeth and said, "So, forget it, what kind of nice words are these? Of course, the main reason is that that guy just casually canceled the breakup concert that we had worked so hard to organize!"

"If we're talking about demons, he's the real demon!"

He sneered, "If you ask me, the person who killed this guy did a really good job!"

"Although I don't know who that person is, if I find them, I'll definitely thank them..."

He paused mid-sentence, then shook his head slightly: "No, it's better to say we'll never be found than to be found in this lifetime."

As he spoke, his tone grew increasingly agitated, and the demonic makeup on his face became increasingly bizarre and terrifying: "Someone like him who killed such a demon is definitely a hero!"

"He was a great man!"

"How can someone like that be caught!"

Fujino: "..."

How come I don't know how great I am?

What I'm saying is, is it possible that we were just a kid who only bought that $10 million?
But this tone sounds so much like that of a certain Tianyu, a fanatical follower of a certain immortal venerable who surpassed the effects of the Nine-Turn Slave Gu.

If I were to use the identity of Batman, would this person who is actually Satan give me the nickname "Black Bat Great Love Immortal Venerable"?

Faced with this scene, not only Fujino was speechless, but everyone present was also momentarily at a loss for words.

If you're talking about murderers, they're not murderers; they're just expressing their opinions.

What else can you say: Human life is absolutely precious, how can you take someone's life so easily and call them a murderer a hero! What kind of talk is that?
Isn't that shameless? Put yourself in their shoes; if this happened to you, who wouldn't applaud?
Conan was speechless, mainly because he didn't want to go up and invite trouble.

Although he is a righteous devil, he has also learned to consider the situation and assess the circumstances.

If you speak up in this situation, you'll definitely get a retort...

If you want to condemn others, you must first stand on the moral high ground and use a contemptuous gaze to mock them.

However, it's clear that the one currently standing on the moral high ground is the other side...

Moreover, it seems they've started to criticize in a rather crazy way.

Using moral or legal means to torture the other party will not cause any harm at all!

Megure couldn't say anything about it: "Mr. Satan, please go back and give us a statement for investigation."

"It doesn't matter."

Satan crossed his arms and said, "I threw the knife and raincoat into the TV station's trash can. If you want to find them, I'll take you there."

"Ok, no problem……"

Inspector Megure gave an awkward smile; dealing with such a suspect was actually a bit difficult.

The main problem is that I don't know what attitude to take when dealing with this.

So open and honest...

Unfortunately, you can't find anything to convict them of.

After taking Satan away, Inspector Megure couldn't help but ask Fujino a question:
"Brother Fujino, how much of what Satan says is believable?"

"I think it's about 80% believable."

Fujino explained helplessly, "He dared to lead you to the murder weapon, so there's a high probability that he really didn't kill anyone. It's also unlikely that he's in cahoots with that guy. If he really wanted to do it, he wouldn't have gone to all this trouble."

"Of course, it's possible that he made the move and coordinated with the man in black, but there's no evidence for that unless the man in black is caught."

"It's also possible that he killed someone and hid the murder weapon beforehand, and disposed of the real weapon long ago, but this possibility is unlikely, since judging from his reaction, he shouldn't have prepared any such things."

"Besides, we don't have any reason to convict them right now."

"He is now considered to have committed a crime in progress. I guess he had already thought it through, since he said that he suddenly changed his mind before taking action, threw away the murder weapon, and planned to go and talk."

"It's hard to say whether the murder weapon was discarded first or after the person was dead, but we don't have any evidence to confirm it."

Inspector Megure frowned: "Then now we can only look for clues about the man in black..."

Conan followed behind, also unable to say anything.

The main reason is that Fujino's reasoning is flawless.

He considered almost every possibility he could think of.

Damn it, this case is so complicated...

Conan sighed inwardly, feeling rather helpless.

At this stage of the case, we can only leave the truth to time.

Soon, the police found the murder weapon and raincoat that Satan had discarded inside the television station.

After following Xiao Hei, they found the knife and handkerchief used in the murder in the convenience store restroom. The blood samples matched.

As a result, the professional assassin dressed in black was listed as a wanted criminal by the Metropolitan Police Department.

Fujino, after enjoying the system's rewards for free, took the little ones home happily.

Wait, it seems like I forgot something?
That evening, at Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya's house.

"Sis, listen to me, we ran into someone at the TV station today..."

"I see. That's quite a remarkable case."

"right!"

"So, Mitsuhiko, where's the autograph I asked for?!"

"Huh? I think I forgot..."

"Misuhiko!!!"

"what--!!!"

The Tsuburaya family, now that they have an older sister, has become even more martial-minded.

…………

Fujino had already received the system reward upon returning home.

There's not much to say, it's all about money and experience.

But what bothered him most was the enchanted item.

[Random Weapon Enchantment Fragment (Gold): When used, it yields an enchantment fragment. The enchantment card can enchant a specified item, granting it magical abilities.]

"This is gold?"

Fujino gave a deadpan look, having long harbored doubts about the system's color-level system.

Some things are clearly very practical, but they aren't gold.

Some things are clearly useless, yet they are golden.

All I can say is that it's a classic.

Yes, it's quite similar to reality in this respect.

Fujino silently complained to himself before coming out of the bathroom, putting on a white bathrobe, and sitting down at the small table next to the balcony.

Looking out at the night sky, he took out a bottle of Bolshevik vodka from the refrigerator, poured it into a glass, and downed it in one gulp.

He smacked his lips: "This thing is completely useless, but it tastes alright."

"Forget it, let's just open the enchantment fragment and see what pops out."

Thinking this, he took out a lucky coin from his personal space, intending to boost his luck buff.

Is this thing even useful to the system?

Moreover, luck, frankly speaking, is a bit subjective...

It's not a big problem, we'll see after we use it.

Using something is better than not using it.

Fujino received a lucky buff.

As for that coin of fate...

Aside from using it to scam people, Fujino really didn't want to use it.

Who knows if getting an unfortunate debuff will trigger a helicopter crash sound effect and smash your own little house to pieces?
Fujino believes that a gambling addict should only gamble on things that are advantageous to themselves.

You shouldn't gamble if you're even slightly at risk of losing.

As for those gamblers who lose everything by betting recklessly, I suggest they go and jump into the famous local river embankment, Wujin River.

Fujino put away the lucky coin and opened the [Random Weapon Enchantment Fragment].

Congratulations on obtaining the (Flaming Eagle) Enchantment Fragment!

【The Eagle of Frost: The prototype is a one-handed sword forged by the abbot of a French monastery about a thousand years ago. Legend has it that this sword can bathe eagles in holy light. It once saw the light of day again during the French Revolution, but its whereabouts have been unknown ever since.
