Chapter 197 You beast!
The boy knelt in a pool of blood and watched his mother take her last breath.

That ruthless and cold face lingers in my mind.

Why did this happen to me?

Why could he run away so coldly when it was that person who caused all this?

If my mother had been sent to the hospital for treatment in time, she might have been saved.

It's all that man's fault.

The seeds of hatred were buried in the boy's young heart.

The boy had only his mother as a relative, and he was helpless, so perhaps God compensated him.

He was adopted by the wealthy Takasugi family and became the heir to the Takasugi Group.

But the boy who lost everything did not feel lucky at all, and since then he has lived a life like a walking corpse.

Junior high school, high school, college...confusion eroded his brain, and his childhood memories became more and more distant and vague.

The only thing he remembered clearly was the memory of that day and that cold and ruthless face.

He found out that the man's name was Matsumoto Kiyonaga, and that he was a policeman who was chasing a serial killer that day.

Even so, can he just watch her die without helping?
He still couldn't forgive the other person.

Until that day, he met a woman in college.

The woman was a good friend of his then girlfriend Kazumi Takenaka. Through Kazumi's introduction, he learned that the other party was the daughter of Matsumoto Kiyonaga.

Moreover, the cold-blooded and ruthless Matsumoto Kiyonaga has now been promoted to superintendent of police.

The flame of revenge burned in his heart, and he decided to let that cold-blooded guy also taste the pain of losing a loved one.

So he abandoned his original girlfriend and started pursuing his enemy's daughter.

With his unremitting efforts, the other party finally agreed to his proposal.

He wanted to make Matsumoto Kiyonaga taste the pain at the most gorgeous wedding.

When Takasugi Toshihiko opened his eyes, tears were already streaming down his face.

He murmured, "I remember now. It turns out that I have known Sayuri for a long time... She is that girl."

[I actually wanted to kill her. Why, why did she have to be that man's daughter? ]

Lin Ye saw everything that Takasugi Toshihiko recalled and finally understood his motives.

Alas, what a tragedy.

A tragedy caused by an accident.

In the corner of the bar.

Conan stared in amazement at Takasugi Toshihiko who was in tears, and Lin Ye who was sighing.

From his perspective, Takasugi Toshihiko just took a sip of the drink that Lin Ye made by mixing hot tea and plum wine, then closed his eyes and burst into tears.

[What's going on? Why is he crying? What did this man put in his drink? ]

It's a thoughtful thing, my great detective.

Lin Ye silently answered Conan's question in his heart.

However, with the detective's rational thinking, even if I explain it to him, he will probably find it difficult to understand.

Toshihiko Takasugi continued drinking in the store until late at night, until he became the last customer in the store.

"Continued Cup!"

The drunk Takasugi Toshihiko shouted.

The wine that Lin Ye provided him was weaker and weaker, and if he diluted it further, it would be almost like water.

Even so, Takasugi Toshihiko still got drunk.

Lin Ye was about to say something, when——

jingle!

The door of the bar was suddenly pushed open, and a tall figure appeared at the door.

【Matsumoto-senpai! 】

Amuro Toru was startled when he saw the person who entered the store, but he quickly recovered. Matsumoto Kiyonaga came in and saw his son-in-law who was drunk in front of the bar. His brows knitted together, and his already fierce face looked even more terrifying.

"You stinky boy, you went to the bar to drink on the first day of your marriage. What do you think of my daughter?"

Matsumoto Kiyoshi strode to the bar, grabbed Takasugi Toshihiko by the collar and lifted him up.

"Hey, hey, it's you, you cold-blooded bastard, the murderer who killed my mother!"

Takasugi Toshihiko's face flushed and he roared.

The sound mixed with the strong smell of alcohol and saliva hit Matsumoto Kiyonaga's face, deafening him.

"What did you say?"

Matsumoto Kiyonaga was stunned.

"Hic."

Takasugi Toshihiko burped and sneered:
"You won't forget it, right? That's right, to you, it was just an accident..."

Matsumoto Kiyonaga's expression changed, as if he remembered something, and stared blankly at Takasugi Toshihiko in front of him.

[What? Could this guy be...?]

The face of the son-in-law in front of him slowly overlapped with the face of a helpless boy in his memory. His hands loosened and Takasugi Toshihiko immediately fell back into the chair.

Takasugi Toshihiko leaned against the bar, sneering.

"…Let me remind you that 20 years ago, you killed an innocent mother while chasing a serial killer."

Matsumoto Kiyonaga was shocked, and the memories of that day suddenly came flooding back.

At that time, his attention was completely attracted by the fugitive. He did not notice that there was a woman lying under the fugitive's car, so he went straight to chase the criminal.

He only found out about this incident afterwards, but when he went to the deceased's home, the other party had already moved away.

He learned from his neighbors that the family consisted of only a mother and a son. After the mother died, the son was taken away and disappeared.

"My mother was actually still alive at the time. If she had been sent to the hospital in time, she might have been saved, but you ran away as if nothing had happened. Yes, you are a policeman, you are chasing a fugitive, so you can just watch an innocent mother die? Ahem, ahem..."

Takasugi Toshihiko asked harshly, choking on his saliva and starting to cough violently.

Lin Ye poured a glass of warm water and placed it on the bar.

"Mr. Takasugi, have a drink of water."

Takasugi Toshihiko picked up the water cup and took a big gulp viciously, his eyes still fixed on Matsumoto Kiyonaga.

"Since that day, I have never forgotten your cold and ruthless face..."

Matsumoto Kiyonaga remained silent and did not explain.

[That matter was indeed my negligence...]

But suddenly, his eyes became sharp and he looked coldly at Takasugi Toshihiko, whose eyes were full of hatred.

"You approached my daughter, are you trying to get revenge on me?"

He could understand the anger in Takasugi's heart, but as a father, he absolutely could not forgive him for using his daughter for revenge!
"Yes, that's right." Takasugi Toshihiko sneered, "You know, I was going to let you taste the pain of losing a loved one. Today, I put poison in Sayuri's drink..."

"what?"

Matsumoto Kiyonaga was furious and picked up Takasugi Toshihiko again.

"You little brat, come at me if you have anything to say! Sayuri loves you so much that she is willing to have a big fight with me, her father, just to be with you, and you actually want to kill her!"

Matsumoto Kiyonaga has been a policeman for his entire life and has seen countless people. As early as the first time his daughter brought this man to him, he felt that this guy did not seem like a good person.

After learning that he was the son of a wealthy family, he became more certain of his judgment.

This is definitely a man who looks good on the outside, is good at disguise and sweet-talking. Sayuri should not marry such a man.

Now that I think about it, my feeling was right. This kid had evil intentions from the beginning.

But no matter how much he, as a father, objected, Sayuri was determined to be with this man.

Sayuri's mother died early, and he was busy with official duties when he was young, and he owed his daughter a lot. Therefore, he could not persuade his stubborn daughter and had to agree to the marriage.

I didn't expect that my momentary weakness would almost cost my daughter's life.

The more Matsumoto Kiyonaga thought about it, the more frightened he became, the angrier he became, and the angrier he became, until he finally raised his fist as big as a sandbag.

"You beast!"
