The Pirated Onmyoji of the Detective World

“In the afternoon, Mr. Nishino Masato came to our room with Ran and the others.”

At this point, Yu Aragaki added, "When Mr. Nishino entered our room, he noticed the feathers falling from the pigeons and instinctively covered his mouth and nose and ran away. I think this is something that someone without a feather allergy couldn't fake."

"Hmm..." Inspector Megure nodded with some skepticism after hearing what Aragaki Yu said.

Finally, after the police received confirmation from Shiro Suzuki regarding Masato Nishino's feather allergy, the suspicion against him was completely dispelled.

Having finally been cleared of suspicion, Masato Nishino breathed a sigh of relief and looked gratefully at Yuu Aragaki.

At this moment, he finally understood why President Suzuki valued this young man so much.

At the same time, he couldn't help but secretly vow to himself—

If one day, just like the rumors say, Aragaki Yuu and Sonoko get together...

After Aragaki Yu marries into the Suzuki family, Nishino Masato will definitely do his best to assist this young master Aragaki and help him take control of the entire Suzuki Group.

He became the most trusted confidant of young master Aragaki.

This is Masato Nishino's ambition, and also his way of repaying Yu Aragaki for saving his life today.

……

"So who exactly is the culprit?"

Inspector Megure rested his chin on his hand, looking quite troubled.

Although Masato Nishino successfully cleared his name, the case became completely unsolvable again.

Everything was shrouded in mystery again.

Who exactly killed Mr. Hanchuan Long?

They left Mr. Nishino's ballpoint pen in the deceased's room, and also threw the ring they stole from Mr. Hanchuan Long under Mr. Nishino's bed.

If the murderer stole the ring simply to frame Mr. Nishino.

Why did the murderer kill Mr. Hanchuan Long?

"Hey……"

Faced with one question after another, Inspector Megure couldn't help but let out a deep sigh.

Chapter 378 You are Scorpion

"Inspector Megure, have you ever heard of Scorpion?"

Just as Inspector Megure was scratching his head in frustration, Conan spoke up again.

"Scott Sung?" Inspector Megure looked at Conan with a puzzled expression.

Officer Shiratori's eyes narrowed slightly, almost unconsciously.

Even Kogoro Mouri's eyes suddenly flashed with a sharp light as he silently glanced at Conan.

"Haven't you heard of a villain who specializes in stealing treasures from the Romanov dynasty all over the world, and who also specifically targets people's right eyes?"

"Oh!" Hearing Conan's words, Inspector Megure did indeed recall this globally wanted criminal. "So it's this guy... Wait, wait a minute!"

Inspector Megure, who had just seemed to have a sudden realization, suddenly turned ferocious and leaned close to Conan in disbelief, exclaiming, "Wait a minute, could this culprit also be one?!"

"I think it must be this Scorpion! He's probably the one who sniped Kaito Kid." Conan's lips suddenly curled up into a smile.

"What did you say?!" Inspector Megure, Inspector Takagi, and Kogoro Mouri all looked surprised, clearly not having heard about Kid's attack.

Only Officer Shiratori's expression remained unchanged.

Meanwhile, the others sitting not far away also looked at Conan with a puzzled expression.

"That's right, the lens of Kaito Kid's right monocle was shattered." Conan glanced at Yuu Aragaki before explaining the situation to everyone. "Someone sniped Kaito Kid last night, their goal being to steal the egg from him."

Upon hearing this, the expressions of everyone present changed, and many even became strange.

Meanwhile, Kogoro Mouri leaned down and questioned Conan, "Kid, how did you know about Scorpion?"

"Huh?" Conan's heart skipped a beat, and his expression froze.

hateful!

He accidentally forgot that he was now Conan, not the high school detective Shinichi Kudo!

Ran, who was sitting on the sofa, immediately became serious when she heard Kogoro Mouri's words, staring intently at Conan, who looked embarrassed.

"I, I..." Conan stammered twice, then suddenly pointed to Aragaki Yu beside him and said, "Aragaki-nii-san told me all of this! Hahahaha..."

Aragaki Yu: "..."

"Brother Aragaki?"

Inspector Megure and the others looked at Aragaki Yu with suspicion.

"Um... okay..." Aragaki Yu shrugged and nodded, "It was Conan and I who talked about it..."

However, his helpless expression made it seem as if he was taking the blame for Conan.

“But if the culprit is Scorpion,” Inspector Megure raised his own question at this point, “why would he put the ring he stole from Mr. Kanakawa into Mr. Nishino’s room?”

"This... I don't know either..." Kogoro Mouri shook his head in distress.

Conan naturally had a vague idea of ​​the answer.

However, since mentioning Scorpion had already aroused suspicion, Conan couldn't say anything directly at this point.

However, just as he was about to use a tranquilizer dart to borrow the identity of the famous detective Kogoro Mouri, he discovered that Officer Shiratori behind him was staring intently at him for some reason.

That look...

It was exactly the same look I felt when I secretly called Professor Agasa!

Is it possible...

Could it be that Officer Shiratori knows something?!

Conan suddenly felt nervous.

For some reason, the fortune slip he had drawn at the shrine involuntarily popped into his mind—

Travel: The secret will be revealed, so don't go.

Could this have anything to do with Officer Shiratori?

Just when Conan was extremely troubled.

Miyano Akemi, who was standing nearby, suddenly spoke up: "I think, Mr. Nishino, you should know Mr. Kankawa, right?"

"Huh?" Masato Nishino noticed that Ms. Hirota (Akami Miyano) was suddenly looking at him and was slightly taken aback.

He couldn't understand why Ms. Hirota knew this.

"Because yesterday at the art museum, Mr. Hanchuan was clearly startled when he saw Mr. Nishino," Miyano Akemi explained with a smile.

"Really?" Nishino Masato himself hadn't noticed this.

“Hmm.” Miyano Akemi nodded and continued, “Mr. Nishino lives abroad most of the year. In that case, you two must have met abroad, right?”

The observant Akemi Miyano had been carefully observing the actions of everyone she met.

This is perhaps a habit she developed while organizing her work.

After all, if she hadn't been careful, she would have been a pile of dust long ago in that kind of organization that devours people without spitting out the bones.

"Hmm?" Nishino Masato scratched his head, lost in thought. After a while, he suddenly remembered something. "That's right!"

"What? You know Mr. Hankawa?" Inspector Megure was startled by Masato Nishino's sudden outburst.

"Yes, three years ago when I was traveling in Asia, he was filming a girl whose house was burned down because of the civil war. I remember I told him to stop, but he wouldn't listen, so I couldn't help but beat him up."

Masato Nishino was lost in his memories. Now that he had been cleared of suspicion, he didn't hide anything.

"So I think Mr. Hanchuan must still hold a grudge against Mr. Nishino!" Conan couldn't help but interject at this moment.

"So that's how it is!" Kogoro Mouri couldn't help but clap his hands, revealing a look of sudden realization.

Just as Conan was finally relieved, Kogoro Mouri pointed at Masato Nishino and said, "So, Mr. Nishino, you are Scorpion!"

"Huh...!?" Conan, who had been nodding repeatedly, almost fell to the ground after hearing the second half of Kogoro Mouri's sentence.

Aragaki Yu: "..."

Akemi Miyano: "Uh..."

Miyano Akemi couldn't help but chuckle at Kogoro Mouri's thought process, but when she noticed Yu Aragaki looking at her, she secretly stuck her tongue out at him.

Even Inspector Megure couldn't stand it anymore and said helplessly to Kogoro Mouri, "Brother Mouri, we can tell from the feather incident that it wasn't Mr. Nishino!"

Officer Shiratori couldn't help but wipe the cold sweat from his forehead.

"Oh, right..." Upon hearing Inspector Megure's words, Kogoro Mouri awkwardly scratched his head and said somewhat embarrassedly.

Chapter 379 Brothers Who Love and Hate Each Other

"However, Mr. Nishino was saved because of this, wasn't he?" Looking at Kogoro Mouri's awkward smile, Yuu Aragaki couldn't help but remind him, "If Mr. Samikawa hadn't been killed by Scorpion, then Mr. Nishino would have been mistaken for the thief who stole the ring."

"Hmm? This... wait a minute!" Upon hearing Miyano Akemi's words, Kogoro Mouri was taken aback for a moment, then frowned and pondered, as if he had thought of something.
