Ke Xue: He mastered the steel-cutting divine skill at the start.

What's most striking is its pair of snake eyes, long and lively. If you only look at the eyes, they are the eyes of a beautiful woman. There are even eyelashes on the eyelids, as if a beautiful woman's eyes have been grafted into the eye sockets of a snake.

This little thing has changed quite a bit since I last saw it.

Even so, it still startled Torakura Etsuko.

"It's a snake!"

Miyazaki Yu smiled and said, "It is indeed a small snake, but don't underestimate it. It is very intelligent and can understand human speech. It has shed its skin several times, but it doesn't seem to have grown up. Instead, it has developed a drinking problem."

The little guy became a little shy after Miyazaki Yu's words, and actually wrapped his arms around his neck, then spun around more than a dozen times, before poking Miyazaki Yu's cheek with his snake mouth, looking like he was scolding him. His big eyes with long eyelashes blinked like little brushes.

"This... is truly miraculous!"

Torakura Etsuko also came from a wealthy family, but later, because Torakura Daisuke took a liking to her, Torakura Daisuke used very despicable means in order to get this woman. First, he deliberately made her family go bankrupt and become heavily indebted.

He then used money to persuade this young and beautiful woman to marry him, a man more than ten years her senior.

However, whether in her former family or after marrying Daisuke Torakura and becoming the wife of a famous writer, she had never seen such a strange animal. Its childlike behavior left her utterly astonished.

Does it really want to drink alcohol?

Miyazaki Yu nodded and said, "That's right, this little guy has a pretty good alcohol tolerance. He has to drink a whole bottle of strong liquor every time before he's satisfied."

Torakura Etsuko nodded, walked directly to the liquor cabinet, took out a bottle of vodka, a very common spirit, opened it, and filled a stemmed glass with the liquor.

Upon smelling the alcohol, the little guy immediately became excited, raising his oval head and plunging it into the glass.

The alcohol disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Huh? Xiaoyu, are you feeding it alcohol again?"

At this moment, Xiaolan also noticed the situation and came over.

Miyazaki Yu smiled slightly and said, "I have no choice. This guy is my savior. Last time, it was thanks to both of you. I've been trying to repay you. As for repaying it, I'll try my best to satisfy this little thing's appetite."

He then picked up the wine bottle and poured the wine directly into the stemmed glass. The little guy devoured it, drinking it down in large gulps. By the time Miyazaki Yu finished pouring, it had drunk it all, leaving only an empty glass.

The little guy let out a burp, exhaling a strong smell of alcohol, which made Xiaolan fan herself with her hand, as she was overwhelmed by the smell.

Then the little guy transformed into a bracelet again, wrapping itself around Miyazaki Yu's wrist, which Miyazaki Yu casually covered with his sleeve.

Torakura Etsuko became very curious about the young man in front of her, so she started talking to Miyazaki Yu. Only then did she think of asking Miyazaki Yu's name, but Miyazaki Yu changed the subject in time, which made Torakura Etsuko even more curious.

By this time, Toshiya Tadokoro had already prepared dinner, so the group had no choice but to stop and go to the restaurant together.

Kogoro Mouri had finished talking with Daisuke Torakura, but Daisuke Torakura did not eat with everyone. He was in a hurry to finish his manuscript and simply asked Toshiya Tadokoro to bring a meal to his room.

"Wow, this table full of food looks so delicious! I won't be polite then!" Kogoro Mori exclaimed happily.

Miyazaki Yu glanced at it and nodded: "The ingredients used in these dishes are quite exquisite. Several of the ingredients are produced in places thousands of miles away. The fact that they can be transported here and still remain fresh shows that they were air-freighted."

Hamura Shuichi frowned slightly and said, "Mr. Tadokoro's cooking skills are quite good. You mean the ingredients are good, but you didn't mention the cooking skills at all. That's really impolite."

Upon hearing this, strange expressions appeared on the faces of the group.

Yukiko, however, was not one to shy away from trouble, saying, "These dishes look pretty good to me, they must taste amazing. I could never make dishes like these."

Miyazaki Yu smiled slightly. This tall young man was clearly an admirer of Torakura Etsuko.

His current strength is extraordinary, and he could hear Kogoro Mouri and Daisuke Torakura's conversation clearly. Daisuke Torakura never dreamed that someone could hear his conversation in the study from a hundred meters away.

He invited Kogoro Mouri here to investigate his wife, Etsuko Torakura, for having an affair.

Actually, there's no need to investigate this matter at all. Torakura Etsuko is under his strict control and hardly has any chance to leave home.

In other words, the only people who could potentially be the targets of an affair are these few individuals.

After ruling out the old editor, the only two possible candidates are Toshiya Tadokoro and Shuichi Hamura.

However, this Hideichi Hamura, who claimed to be researching folklore, was actually there for so-called vampire information and frequently visited this remote villa, making him the prime suspect.

Miyazaki Yu smiled faintly: "Mr. Hamura, you are quite amusing. I was just giving my opinion on the ingredients, and you couldn't wait to jump in. We don't seem to know each other very well, so my comments don't need your correction."

"And Uncle Mori, I now have the answer to what Mr. Torakura asked you to investigate. You'd like to know, wouldn't you?"

Chapter 430 The Death of the Vampire (3rd update!)

"What? You mean that? Wait, how did you know?"

Kogoro Mori immediately understood that Miyazaki Yu must have found out about his conversation with Toracura Daisuke!

Yusaku Kudo and Conan exchanged a glance, both seeing shock in each other's eyes.

Conan thought to himself, "That's impossible. This guy didn't go near the study over there, nor did he talk to Uncle Mori, and he had no chance to get anything out of him. I don't even know what they talked about. How could he know? Could it be that he..."

A chill suddenly ran down his spine, and a flicker of fear crossed his eyes. This guy was simply inhuman.

Miyazaki Yu smiled and said, "Uncle Mori, you shouldn't be surprised. You should remember Sawaki Kohei, right? I was able to hear the sounds inside the Crystal Restaurant from outside the door, and I could pinpoint the location of the person by their breathing and heartbeat. So it would be a piece of cake for me to do the same in this small villa."

However, this is just a coincidence. Doing it this way is quite costly and the scope is very limited. I have no interest in doing it indefinitely.

This explanation finally made Kogoro Mouri nod, and it made sense.

Xiaolan naturally had no doubts; she knew that this was a very simple matter for Miyazaki Yu.

Conan and the Kudo couple were utterly horrified. They both knew that Miyazaki Yu wouldn't lie; he was absolutely capable of doing it. In that case, as long as you were within a certain distance of him, there would be absolutely no secrets left!

No wonder their disguises couldn't fool him; he had such meticulous abilities that he could easily detect even the slightest inconsistency.

His perception was like a miniature radar, with himself at the center, giving him complete control over everything.

No wonder, if one didn't have such capabilities, it would be impossible to destroy an entire military base single-handedly.

However, Hamura Shuichi sneered: "That's utter nonsense. The distance from the living room to the corridor is about a hundred meters, and there are two doors separating them. In addition, the noise of our conversations interfered with the conversation. Unless you installed a listening device in Mr. Torakura's study, you would have no way of knowing what they were saying in there!"

"Judging by your young age, you should only be a high school student, yet you say such things. It's foolish and ridiculous!"

But as soon as he finished speaking, he was staring into Miyazaki Yu's eyes when he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his eyes, and then he felt his airway close up!

All his breaths were blocked; he opened his mouth wide, but could no longer breathe.

"Mr. Hamura!"

Everyone noticed Hamura Shuichi's strange behavior and rushed forward to check on him. They saw that he had his mouth wide open but could not say a word. His face was flushed red, and saliva and snot were uncontrollably overflowing from his mouth and nose. He looked extremely disheveled.

"Mr. Miyazaki, please stop immediately! Although I don't know what methods you used, if this continues, he will die!" Yukiko said anxiously.

Everyone was stunned. They had just offended him, and now they were in this state. Only he could have done that.

Miyazaki Yu sneered, "Ms. Yukiko, what are you talking about? This Mr. Hamura choked on his food and now you want to blame me? Which eye of yours saw me make a move? This should be considered unfounded slander."

Hearing his resolute words, everyone was filled with suspicion.

Although they sounded tense, the young man remained seated without moving and did not make any aggressive moves.

At this moment, Kudo Yusaku could no longer hold back and said, "Mr. Miyazaki, although we have no evidence to prove that you were the one who did it, we know very well that only you could do such a thing silently!"

This is a human life at stake! Please, Your Excellency, show mercy!

Miyazaki Yu sneered: "Mr. Yusaku, you and your son Shinichi Kudo are both prone to prejudice and are so self-righteous. Do you think the truth you see is the truth?"

There are many people in this world who choke to death while eating, and he is just one of them. There's no need to make a fuss. If you call an ambulance now, he might still be saved.

Kudo Yusaku gritted his teeth, but there was nothing he could do. His proud reasoning skills and clever mind were of no use at this moment.

Conan's face turned extremely grim.

"It must be him. I don't know what method he used to cause this result. He was so confident, and he committed the crime in front of everyone. The method he used must be something beyond the comprehension of ordinary people!"

At this moment, one person could no longer hold back and rushed directly in front of Miyazaki Yu.

"Please, sir, have mercy and save Shuichi!"

The one rushing over was none other than Torakura Etsuko. At this moment, a tear had appeared on her beautiful face, and her expression was full of pleading.

Miyazaki Yu chuckled lightly, "As expected, the person having an affair with Mrs. Torakura is this Mr. Hamura Shuichi, isn't he? No wonder, if he hadn't seen me chatting with Mrs. Torakura and made his lover so jealous, he wouldn't have targeted me like that at the dinner table just now."

However, since Mrs. Torakura just poured me wine, I should feel indebted to her. So I'll help him out. He has actually suddenly stopped breathing. All I need to do is give him a good pounding on the back.

"Ms. Yukiko's attitude of jumping around and stirring things up just now was quite proactive, so it's up to you to come to the rescue."

Yukiko's face flushed red and then turned pale. She had only made a slight provocation, yet this man held such a grudge.

However, given Miyazaki Yu's mysterious and unpredictable methods, she dared not disobey him and could only walk behind Hamura Shuichi and punch him hard in the back.

"Cough cough cough—whoosh whoosh whoosh—"

First came a violent cough, then he gasped for breath, and his face gradually changed from bluish-purple to a normal color.

His face was filled with intense fear, a chilling, bone-deep feeling, like being in endless darkness, or like a drowning person with no hope in sight.

"Shuichi!" Torakura Etsuko rushed to his side.

He forcefully pushed Yuezi away, glaring fiercely at Miyazaki Yu. But as soon as he met her eyes, he felt a surge of intense fear, staggered to his feet, and walked directly to the other room.

Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment. When Torakura Etsuko saw this, tears welled up in her eyes, and she burst into tears and ran upstairs.

This incident during the meal left everyone feeling heavy-hearted. They quickly ate a few bites and then dispersed.

However, this night was destined to be anything but peaceful!

At dawn, a piercing scream shattered the tranquility of the morning.

When everyone arrived at the collection room, a horrifying scene unfolded before their eyes.

Both Daisuke Torakura and Shuichi Hamura were now lying in pools of blood!

Chapter 431 A Mutual Destruction Ends

"They're both dead!"

"how so!"

"Daisuke! Shuichi, what are you doing this for?!" Torakura Etsuko was so shocked by what she saw that she almost fell to the ground, but fortunately Yukiko reacted quickly and caught her.

"Lady Hucang, you must take good care of yourself. You are now the head of this household, and you need to pull yourself together."

Everyone's expression was one of utter shock, and some were even at a loss for what to do.

Miyazaki Yu said, "Uncle Mori, the most important thing now is to protect the scene and then call the police."

Kogoro Mouri immediately realized what was happening: "You're right! Ran, quickly call the police and get Inspector Megure over!"

Before the police arrived, Kogoro Mouri and Yusaku Kudo began their investigation of the scene, with Conan naturally joining in as well.
