Conan's Exorcist Detective

Chapter 26 The End of the Red Thread of Destiny is Over-the-Shoulder Throw

Haruhiko Kousaka smelled the faint fragrance on Sonoko's body. Perhaps he was really too tired, and he actually fell asleep.

He didn't know how long it had been before he suddenly heard a voice calling out, "Are you really asleep? Get up quickly."

Haruhiko opened his eyes and saw Suzuki Sonoko shaking his shoulders.

"what happened?"

"The ambulance is here. Xiaolan and the others will probably be here soon," said Sonoko.

Haruhiko turned his head and saw that there were indeed several doctors carrying stretchers standing not far in front of him.

Several police cars were parked outside the yellow cordon, and uniformed staff entered the scene and began collecting evidence.

Haruhiko quickly stood up from Sonoko's legs. He saw two red marks above Sonoko's white knees, which must be the marks he left.

At this time, Suzuki Sonoko also noticed Haruhiko's gaze, and she hurriedly pulled her pleated skirt with her hands to cover up Haruhiko's traces of the crime.

Not long after, Inspector Megure, wearing his ever-changing brown windbreaker, came in front of Haruhiko.

"Brother Kosaka, are you okay?" Inspector Megure said with a worried look on his face. "You are so reckless. How could you go chasing the criminals by yourself?"

Megure Jusan's tone was not so harsh, perhaps because he felt that he would have to ask Haruhiko to help him solve the case later.

Haruhiko said sincerely, "I'm sorry to have worried you. I'm just a little tired. If everything is ok, I hope to go back and rest soon."

Officer Megure was a little embarrassed: "This matter is a bit serious, and we still need to go through the procedures. But I will try my best to arrange it so that you can go back early."

"Thank you very much." Haruhiko was very polite.

"No, no, I'll have to rely on Brother Kousaka from now on." Inspector Megure smiled and patted his shoulder.

Megure was a little surprised when he saw Haruhiko in front of him, who seemed to be just a little tired and had no obvious scars except that his clothes were slightly dirty.

In fact, when he first heard the news that Haruhiko had caught up with the murderer, he was very worried, because in Megure's impression, Haruhiko was just a smart high school detective, and he even seemed a little thinner than the average person.

So Inspector Megure was very worried that this intelligent brother might have encountered an accident.

Fortunately, Suwa Yuji escaped by car. At that time, Megure Jusan felt that although the difficulty of chasing him had increased, at least Haruhiko's safety could be guaranteed. He should not be able to catch up with Suwa Yuji who escaped by car, right?

But not long after, he heard from his subordinates that Suwa Yuji had been found, and that a high school student was found at the scene, and it seemed that the high school student had rescued the hostages.

Megure Juzo was shocked when he heard the news.

He didn't understand how Haruhiko caught up with her and how he rescued Suzuki Sonoko?
When he arrived at the scene, he saw Suwa Yuji lying there in a daze, with gauze wrapped around his head and his hand severed.

Megure Jusan was even more shocked.

Is this new brother so ruthless?
Megure has seen many criminals at the end of their rope. When they are forced into desperate situations, they often become more brutal than usual. Even experienced detectives have to be cautious when facing such people.

But judging from the situation at the scene, it seemed that Haruhiko had easily dealt with the criminal.

This made Megure Jusan look at Haruhiko with admiration.

Could it be that in addition to solving cases, this brother also has a strong talent in kendo?

Of course, Haruhiko didn't know the doubts in Inspector Megure's mind. He was now hoping that the on-site investigation could be completed as soon as possible.

However, judging by the meticulousness of the on-site staff, even the fragments of car wreckage stained with a drop of blood had to be picked up with tweezers and placed in a transparent evidence bag.

It will probably take quite some time to complete the investigation.

At this time, Mao Lilan and others also rushed to the scene. Mao Lilan hugged Sonoko and cried, saying that she failed to protect her.

Sonoko comforted her and said that it was not her fault. Xiaolan was very far away at the time, so it was normal that she could not react.

Haruhiko looked at Sonoko smiling heartlessly, and seemed to have returned to her young ladylike self.

After crying for a while, Ran Mouri and Sonoko came to Haruhiko with red eyes.

Haruhiko looked at her slightly red eyes and comforted her, "Don't blame yourself too much. No one would have been able to do anything in that situation."

Mao Lilan: "Thank you, Kosaka-kun. If anything happened to Sonoko, I really wouldn't be able to forgive myself."

Haruhiko: "No need to thank me, Sonoko and I are good friends."

At this time, Sonoko also interrupted and said, "That's right, and I have already rewarded him."

Xiaolan turned back to look at Sonoko and said, "You don't need Kosaka-kun to be your follower anymore?"

Haruhiko also looked at Sonoko with anticipation.

"How is that possible? Kousaka-san is such a good follower, of course I can't let him get away." Sonoko said with a matter-of-fact expression, "At least I have to wait until I find a handsome guy who can protect me."

Haruhiko was a little disappointed, then asked, "So, what exactly is the reward? A vacation voucher for the villa?"

He was actually looking forward to attending the party at Miss Sonoko's villa, because he knew there was a high probability of encountering a case, which meant there was a high probability of encountering an evil spirit that could be exorcised.

That's all experience, baby.

But when Sonoko heard what Haruhiko said, she angrily said, "Asshole, weren't you sleeping soundly on my lap just now?"

Mao Lilan covered her mouth with her hand, looking surprised.

Haruhiko suddenly realized something and then showed a somewhat disappointed expression.

Seeing this, Yuanzi rushed over and said, "What do you mean by that expression? Explain it to me! Are my legs not fragrant enough?"

Xiaolan quickly stopped the running Yuanzi.

While Haruhiko was playing and fighting, everyone else was busy.

But this does not include Patrolman Matsuda and his partner, who caused the accident.

Perhaps by sheer luck, neither Matsuda Yosuke nor the young officer was seriously injured. Matsuda was now sitting on a makeshift stretcher in the ambulance, his wounds briefly tended to. But after something like this happened, people were instinctively in a state of confusion.

Yosuke Matsuda stared at the mess in front of him in a daze. He didn't expect that at his age, he would still encounter such a big scene.

However, what he is more worried about now is the results of the accident investigation. If it is discovered that the accident was caused by him, he may be severely punished, right?
But as long as I can deal with the young junior who is my partner, I should be able to keep this matter secret, right?
Just as Matsuda was thinking about how to make the other person shut up, the voice he least wanted to hear rang in his ears.

The young junior partner of his finished treating his wound and sat down beside him.

"Senior, did you see that?"

"What?" Matsuda asked.

"That high school student didn't pee his pants out of fear."

"Is... is that so?" Matsuda's expression was a little unnatural. "Even if I lose 2000 yuan to you, I'll take you to the red-light district next time."

"That's not what I meant. Did you also see the choice that high school student made when facing the criminal? He wasn't the kind of person who did that just to curry favor with the young lady, as the senior said."

Matsuda rubbed his injured shoulder and said, "Yeah, it really surprised me. Young people nowadays are really amazing."

There was silence for a while.

The young police officer suddenly said, "I will tell the officers at headquarters everything that happened. We may not be partners anymore. Take care, senior."

After saying that, the young police officer stood up and walked towards Inspector Megure.

Matsuda Yosuke's face suddenly turned ugly.

Things were developing in the direction he least wanted to see, but he had no ability to stop it.

Why did the usually timid newcomer suddenly become so assertive? Could it be that he was influenced by that high school student?
Matsuda turned his gaze to the high school student who played an important role in this incident.

Seeing Haruhiko laughing and joking with Sonoko and Ran, judging from the atmosphere, maybe they really have a good relationship.

Matsuda recalled the scene he saw after climbing out of the car just now. The high school student actually dared to fight to the death with Suwa Yuji.

That's a gamble where you put your life on the sword in your hand, and one mistake can cost you your life.

Matsuda thinks that even if he were faced with that situation, he would choose to retreat, right?
Prisoners at the end of their rope are the most dangerous. Unless you are absolutely sure, never provoke them alone.

But that young man just rushed forward.

What Matsuda couldn't accept the most was that he actually won.

That knife move was so fast that he couldn't see it clearly. What style was it from?
Matsuda couldn't quite tell.

But if I'm not mistaken, if he stood opposite that high school student, he would probably be killed instantly by such a move, right?
Just as Matsuda was daydreaming, Inspector Megure came over.

"Matsuda, according to your partner's description, you have seriously violated police regulations. You will have to come back to the police station with me for investigation. Your position is temporarily suspended during the investigation."

Matsuda's face turned pale, and he thought that this was the end.

Several people came over and handcuffed Matsuda, then took him back to the police car parked outside the cordon, with Officer Megure following behind.

As soon as he walked out of the cordon, Megure saw Sato Miwako walking towards him.

"Sato, how did you get your car back?" Megure asked casually.

Because Megure Juzo arrived at the scene later, when he saw Sato's car, he instinctively thought that Sato Miwako had arrived before him.

Miwako was stunned: "Car? Where is it?"

Officer Megure pointed behind him and saw the red Mazda parked within the cordon.

The front door of the car was open, and a man who looked like a high school student was halfway in the driver's seat, seemingly searching for something.

"Eh? Isn't that Brother Kousaka? Why is he..." Inspector Megure was halfway through his words when he realized that Sato Miwako had already rushed up.

Could it be that they knew each other? Megure Jusan wondered.

Miwako Sato was even more shocked. She didn't expect that the car thief was here and dared to rummage through her car in front of the police.

Miwako Sato lifted the cordon and took two steps behind Haruhiko.

"What are you looking for? I'll help you find it?" Sato said coldly.

Haruhiko turned around and saw a short-haired woman in front of him. She was wearing a lavender dress uniform and a pair of white high heels. Her straight calves were exposed, emitting a charming glow under the light.

She didn't wear any makeup, but she gave people a heroic feeling. Her fair skin looked as tender as that of a young girl, but her temperament had a more mature and capable charm.

Haruhiko guessed that they looked like logistics personnel from the Metropolitan Police Department.

Haruhiko politely said to the logistics staff, "Don't bother, I can find it myself."

Then he went back into the car and rummaged through the drawers.

Sato Miwako's forehead was bulging with veins: "You bastard, stop it!"

With her loud roar, Haruhiko felt himself being thrown out. His body stayed in the air for a short time before falling heavily to the ground.

This sudden accident attracted the attention of everyone present.

The investigators stopped what they were doing, and Inspector Megure's eyes widened.

Suzuki Sonoko was originally telling Xiaolan about her experience of being kidnapped, and out of the corner of her eye she saw Haruhiko being thrown over the shoulder by an inexplicable woman.

Miss Sonoko suddenly felt unhappy. Where did this woman come from? Why did she hit someone so casually? If she got hurt, where would she find such a useful follower?
Then Suzuki Sonoko walked towards the red Mazda angrily.
