Conan: Above all force, there is truth!

Mihua Wharf

The once empty space now has several small hills made of people.

All marked targets have been suppressed.

The voice of the AI ​​Xiao Jia rang in Long Ye's mind.

The crimson in Longye's eyes gradually faded, replaced by a clear, cold gaze: "Is the information investigation complete? Are there any other relevant personnel?"

Based on the information and intelligence currently available, there are no longer any related personnel.

"call…"

Upon hearing this, Longye put down the blood-stained steel pipe in his hand and put it back into his spatial storage.

Except for a few guys whom he dealt with using a gun, he personally took care of the rest, one blow at a time, with a steel pipe.

The purpose is to prevent these guys from dying too easily.

Ryūno knew that his actions went against justice. If Shinichi Kudo were to witness this scene, the guy would probably lead the arrest of him immediately.

However, he has no regrets whatsoever.

Whether in his past life or this life, the crime he hates most is kidnapping.

The once happy family was thus torn apart.

Many parents have suffered mental breakdowns and chosen to end their lives because of this…

The innocent and adorable child had his hands and feet chopped off and his organs removed by the criminals.

In the eyes of these people, those children are not human beings at all, but merely so-called "goods".

Children with healthy organs are considered valuable, so they are locked up and kept.

As for those that are worthless, either make them "crippled" to squeeze all the value out of them.

Or... just get rid of it directly.

Moreover, Japanese law imposes very light punishments on these kidnappers.

According to the law, they can only be sentenced to a maximum of ten years in prison.

Longye knew he wasn't a good person and couldn't be bothered to uphold peace and justice.

However, he could not allow such a thing to happen under his nose.

Longye took one last look at the scene before him and placed the missing person poster from his pocket on the ground.

Then he flew straight into the air and pressed the button on the controller in his hand.

"boom!!!"

The moment the button was pressed, the dock warehouse was engulfed in flames with a loud bang.

Seeing that the scale of the explosion was exactly as Xiao Jia had calculated, Long Ye spread his wings and left.

……

Shortly after

Inspector Megure led his team to Beika Wharf.

Looking at the warehouse area that had been bombed to the ground, Inspector Megure took off his hat in shock and ordered the officer next to him, "Quickly, go investigate!"

Shortly after, an officer returned to Inspector Megure and reported, "Inspector, the explosion just now destroyed several warehouses. Apart from the traces of the explosion, nothing else was found at the scene."

"Are there any casualties?"

"An investigation is underway, but judging from the scale of the explosion, if anyone was indeed present, they're probably... completely reduced to ashes..."

"..."

"Then you can continue your investigation."

After the investigation was completed, the officer returned to Inspector Megure and reported, "Inspector, the investigation is complete. Apart from the composition of the explosives, no other clues were left at the scene."

Inspector Megure slapped the hood of the police car and shouted, "Then what about the gunshot the caller heard? We didn't even find a bullet at the scene!?"

Just as Inspector Megure was getting carried away, his phone rang.

He calmed himself down and answered the phone.

"Hello, Officer Sato... Really!? Okay, I'll be on my way to the hospital right away!"

According to Officer Sato, most of the children in the hospital have regained consciousness.

Three of the bolder children were even telling Officer Sato what had happened.

Based on the information we have now, they are the group of kidnapped children!

Upon hearing the news, Inspector Megure finally breathed a sigh of relief. He casually gave some instructions to the officers who were still investigating and searching at the explosion site, and then immediately took a car to Beika Hospital.

Shortly after, in the hospital ward

“We’re telling the truth! A person wearing a black cat mask appeared and saved us, then we fell asleep, and when we opened our eyes we were here!”

"That's right!"

"Hmm? Is it a black cat mask? Not a white cat mask? By the way, I'm hungry..."

Inspector Megure and Inspector Sato frowned, listening intently to the children's explanation.

Although what these children were saying was somewhat nonsensical, it was their only hope right now.

The other children also woke up, but their mental and emotional state seemed...

Upon hearing their questions, some children remained silent, while others immediately burst into tears, making it impossible for the conversation to continue.

There's nothing we can do but wait for their parents to arrive at the hospital and then see how things go.

In the end, only these three little guys seemed to be in relatively normal spirits, or even... somewhat happy?

Upon hearing the chubby child say he was hungry, Inspector Megure immediately ordered his subordinates to buy them food, and then continued to question the children about what had happened.

"..."

Just then, Officer Sato, who was standing to the side, stroked his chin as if recalling something, and suddenly looked up and said, "Inspector! Do you remember that bombing incident from back then? In that case, there seemed to be a person wearing a 'black cat mask'?!"

After hearing Inspector Sato's words, Inspector Megure's eyes widened in surprise. "That's right, I remember! The Ferris wheel incident, right? But where did he come from, and what's his connection to this case...?"

Chapter 56 You're the groom?

……

Tatsuno's Home

"Ryūno, guess what Sonoko said to me today? Do you remember our middle school music teacher? She's getting married next week!" Ran said excitedly over the phone.

Hearing Xiaolan's excited tone, Longye immediately pictured her gentle, smiling face and replied with a smile, "Oh? Is that so? Ms. Xiaobaihe is getting married!"

"How could I forget? Junior high music class was the nightmare of my life!"

"Hahahaha!" X2

Upon hearing his words, laughter immediately came from the other end of the phone.

Needless to say, Longye knew perfectly well whose laughter that sounded so exaggerated it seemed like someone was about to die belonged to.

After chatting for a while, Longye hung up the phone and leaned back on the sofa.

Today, the reason he wants to transfer Xiaolan away is not only because he needs to find time to "make a dirty move," but also because he doesn't want Xiaolan to be involved in this case.

Given Xiaolan's kind nature, if she were to find out that those children were abducted because of organ trafficking...

Even worse, if she were to see the children in the cages with her own eyes…

This will inevitably cause serious harm and damage to Xiaolan's kind heart.

Therefore, Longye decided to take personal action to quickly resolve the incident at its source.

Although his methods were not honorable, and could even be described as extremely evil...

But at least it works, right?

Moreover, he had already decided to protect Xiaolan's smile. If anyone dared to hurt Xiaolan…

……

A few days later

Under the media censorship of the Japanese Minister of State and the Metropolitan Police Department, the abduction case has gradually faded from public view.

Most of the healthy children have returned to their families, while the remaining children are still receiving both physical and psychological treatment in the hospital.

After investigation, Inspector Megure and his team have determined that the explosion at Beika Wharf is definitely related to the kidnapping incident.

However, no clues were left at the explosion site except for gunpowder residue in the air.

The investigation is deadlocked.

According to forensic personnel, the placement and quantity of the bombs appeared to be highly professional, with just the right amount to achieve the desired effect.

Furthermore, the person wearing the "black cat mask" appeared in the testimonies of those children.

The thought of the mysterious masked man reappearing after two years gave everyone in the First Investigation Division a headache.

Even so, some good things have happened recently.

The only daughter of Manager Matsumoto is getting married soon!

Upon hearing this news, Department Head Odagiri granted everyone a day off on the wedding day, allowing them to attend the wedding of Manager Matsumoto's daughter.

……

Wedding Hotel

"Oh! It's Mori-san and Suzuki-san! You've come!"

Wearing a pure white wedding dress, Matsumoto Sayuri looked at the students in front of her with a big smile.

She had just finished speaking when she suddenly saw Tatsuno hiding behind Sonoko and Ran, and smiled: "Takeda-kun, don't hide anymore, I've seen you!"

"So, has your singing improved in the last two years? Still only in one key? Hahaha!"

After hearing what Ms. Sayuri said, Ryūno walked out from behind Ran and Sonoko with a dark face.
