Once seated in the car, Sonoko finally breathed a sigh of relief, but Jirokichi Suzuki still looked grave.

"Uncle, we're finally out of danger, why do you still look so worried?"

Jirokichi shook his head and said, "Sonoko, although I shouldn't say anything discouraging at this time, our current situation is still very dangerous."

He has now come to realize the true nature of America. This so-called United States is the world's largest gang. They have no morality or human rights. The only thing they truly believe in is tangible interests.

He and Sonoko were rescued, and no matter how valid their reasons were, they would do anything to erase the incident if it harmed American interests.

In other words, Miyazaki Yu's act of saving people seemed to be a legitimate thing, but if this matter were to be exposed now, it would become a scandal for the entire United States. Not to mention, Miyazaki Yu caused huge casualties in his attempt to save people.

They don't care whether these armed groups are legal in the United States or not, and they don't care whether they were in the wrong first.

All they can see now is that Miyazaki Hayao's rescue operation has damaged American interests, caused huge turmoil, and resulted in numerous casualties.

Therefore, they must die. Only when all those who know the truth are dead can this matter be brought to a close, and can the story they fabricated be given a relatively perfect ending.

Even at this moment, Suzuki Jirokichi had already imagined the story they would fabricate after killing them.

It's nothing more than shifting all the blame onto Miyazaki Hayao, portraying him as a demon and a monster, an incarnation of Satan, a messenger of hell, and dumping all the mud on one person so that America can once again stand on the moral high ground and continue to act as a beacon and world policeman, instead of becoming a laughing stock of the world.

Perhaps at this very moment, high-ranking members of the Skeleton Knights are already using political resources to negotiate with high-ranking government officials, hoping to get the government to cooperate in doing this.

You must believe that America's ability to shift blame is absolutely unparalleled in the world!

Chapter 509 Sonoko and Ran's Reunion

"what?"

Sonoko was taken aback at first, then her expression darkened. She was not a stupid girl. On the contrary, although Sonoko was careless about small things, in fact, her judgment of the big picture was even better than that of ordinary officials.

After all, the Suzuki family only had two daughters at the time. To maintain the Suzuki family business, they needed a traditional Japanese method: choosing a son-in-law to be the family's heir.

However, the Suzuki family's education of their daughter is naturally top-notch.

The world's most prestigious education never teaches music, chess, calligraphy, painting, mathematics, or physics. The most prestigious education teaches only one thing: decision-making.

For the super-rich, their children don't need to become great mathematicians, great writers, or multi-talented individuals. All they need to do is make the right decisions, and their capital will keep them at the top of the pyramid forever, preventing them from falling.

Eating, drinking, and whoring are not things that can bring down a top family. These are small things. Only gambling and reckless investments can truly destroy a top family.

So, although Sonoko usually seems carefree, she is definitely a top-notch smart person when it comes to making important decisions.

She already knew quite a bit of information from Miyazaki Hagumi's previous conversation with Jirokichi's uncle.

At this moment, he also clearly understood some things, and a trace of despair rose in his heart.

After all, no matter how powerful Miyazaki Yu is, he can't possibly fight against a country, let alone a superpower.

She never imagined that the world could be so dark.

Miyazaki Yu looked at Sonoko's dejected appearance in the rearview mirror and felt a pang of pain in his heart.

"Sonoko, don't worry. Since I was able to rescue you, I have already planned everything. As I said, as long as I am here, no one can harm a single hair on your head."

Sonoko suddenly became serious: "Miyazaki, I know you are very strong. Your strength has long surpassed my understanding. But no matter how strong you are, you are still made of flesh and blood. You have to promise me."

If things really come to a crisis, you must promise me that your life is the highest priority. If you don't promise me, I'll commit suicide right now!

Seeing the resolute look in the girl's eyes, Miyazaki felt a warmth in his heart. The best thing in the world is that you give your feelings and receive the most perfect response.

The beauty of this feeling transcends even life and death!

"Okay, I understand what you're thinking. I promise you, but you have to believe me, that time will never come!"

The world is sick, and I will use the sword in my hand to perform the most perfect surgery on this world!

Meanwhile, on the other side, Ran and Kogoro Mouri got into a black car together. At ten o'clock sharp, they left through the back door and quickly boarded the car prepared by the Russian Embassy.

"Don't worry, your two companions have already been taken to the embassy. At 2:00 AM, Mr. and Ms. Mori, along with your two friends, will leave this place on a Russian Airlines charter plane."

Ran, sitting in the back row, looked nervous. Although she didn't want to bring her bad mood to her father, Kogoro Mouri, she couldn't hide her anxiety.

Looking at his uneasy daughter, Kogoro Mouri's gaze was unusually deep and serious.

"Xiao Lan, that kid has made all the preparations. You have to have faith in him. I believe in him. No one in this world can hurt him, and no one can cause him any harm. If he wants to, any dangerous place is just an ordinary place."

Kogoro's firm words gradually eased Ran's tension.

"Dad is right. Xiaoyu is an amazing person. There is nothing in this world that he can't accomplish if he wants to do it, and this time is no exception."

The black sedan sped along the road, the Los Angeles outside the window still dazzling, but no one could truly understand how many evils were brewing within that brilliance.

The embassy gates slowly opened, and the car drove smoothly in. The Russian ambassador was already waiting in the courtyard with a smile. After the two got out of the car, they went up to each other and exchanged pleasantries.

"This must be Mr. and Ms. Mori, right? I am Andrei, the Russian Ambassador to the United States in Los Angeles. It is truly an honor for me to meet Mr. and Ms. Mori today."

"You two must be really looking forward to seeing your two friends; they're upstairs right now."

In a room at that moment, Heiji Hattori and Conan were both lying on hospital beds. Both of their injuries were quite serious and would not heal in a short time.

However, their keen senses as detectives made them both perceive an unusual atmosphere at that moment.

"Xiaolan, what happened? Is this the Russian Embassy in Los Angeles?"

Ran nodded: "Hattori, this is indeed the embassy."

"What exactly is going on? Why were we taken from the hospital and brought here? What happened? What is Miyazaki Yu trying to do?"

The girl didn't answer them, but simply shook her head slightly: "You two, your only task now is to get some rest. In a few hours, we'll be taking a Russian Airlines charter flight and leaving America."

Conan, enduring the sharp pain in his chest, looked at Hattori Heiji. The two exchanged a glance, both seeing something in each other's eyes.

Something must have happened, and it's something bigger than we can imagine!

However, the two lacked a lot of information; without information, any reasoning is just wild guessing.

Hattori Heiji hurriedly asked, "Ran, what happened? Tell us quickly, are you trying to drive us crazy?"

Ran frowned and said, "Hattori and Conan, this matter cannot be explained in just a few words, and it is of great importance."

You don't need to know. Once we get to Moscow together, and then fly back to Japan from Moscow, I will definitely tell you everything in detail.

Now, shut up your curiosity and lie quietly in your hospital beds. If you dare to say another word, I'll use karate to give you a good rest!

Both of them shuddered; Xiaolan looked so terrifying right now!

Conan was in disbelief. How could the gentle and kind Ran say such a thing to him? It must all be Miyazaki Yu's doing!

It seems that the current situation is caused by that guy, but they don't know the specifics. For them, who are full of curiosity, this is a real ordeal.

Just then, Ambassador Andrei suddenly said, "Mr. Miyazaki has returned safely. That's truly remarkable. To be able to go there and rescue people all by himself is truly admirable."

Xiao Lan couldn't hold back any longer and ran wildly downstairs.

Just then, Yuanzi opened the car door and stepped out. Before she could even stand up straight, she was embraced by a big hug. When she finally saw who it was, tears streamed down her face uncontrollably.

"Xiao Lan, I almost never saw you again!"

Chapter 510 Slander by Public Opinion

The two girls hadn't been apart for very long, less than a month, but when they hugged each other now, it felt like a lifetime had passed.

Tears streamed down their faces; at that moment, they only had eyes for each other.

"Sonoko, I'm so scared, so scared that I'll never see you again."

Sonoko sobbed for a while before gradually stopping, having released all her emotions, and gradually calmed down.

"It's alright, Ran. I'm so grateful to Miyazaki for saving me. If it weren't for him, Uncle Jirokichi and I would have been finished."

Meanwhile, in his room upstairs, Hattori Heiji struggled to stand by the window and, seeing this touching scene, couldn't help but feel happy.

"Miss Sonoko has finally been rescued. Miyazaki Yu is truly extraordinary."

Only Conan's face remained filled with worry.

"Hattori, this matter is definitely not that simple! We know nothing right now, and according to my guess, the force that kidnapped Sonoko is no ordinary entity. The price we'll have to pay to rescue her will likely be..."

Hattori Heiji sighed and said, "Alright, Kudo, there's no point in saying all this now. Sonoko has been rescued anyway. All we can do now is get on a plane to Russia with them and leave this place. I don't want to stay here for even a day longer."

This incident was a huge lesson for Hattori Heiji.

Some things are indeed completely different from what you imagine. To uphold justice, you need to have enough resources; otherwise, not only will you fail to achieve justice, but you may also get yourself into trouble.

If it weren't for luck, with Miyazaki Yu arriving in time to save them, the two of them would have been killed by the assassins.

Conan felt a strange sense of irritation. Even Heiji Hattori, who was always very righteous, was starting to back down. How could this be allowed?

He had a premonition that something extraordinary had happened, but now he could only lie in his hospital bed, unable to do anything.

"No, absolutely not! That guy Miyazaki Yu has definitely done something horrific, far beyond my imagination!"

Could he be the one who committed the murders at the castle? Yes, that must be it. According to the information from those girls, they didn't hear any gunshots, only intermittent screams, and then it was all over.

"When I first explored the villa, I determined that Miyazaki Yu must have used some special method to find another clue. Could it be that castle?"

At this moment, Conan, with his keen intuition, connected all the obvious and hidden threads of the whole incident, outlining the general outline of the matter.

"The force capable of directly kidnapping Sonoko is definitely not small. Miyazaki Yu destroyed the castle but did not find any trace of Sonoko. However, through this attack, he obtained some clues again, and then took action tonight to rescue Sonoko."

But what he did tonight must have been earth-shattering, otherwise, given his personality, he wouldn't have needed the Russian embassy to arrange for us all to be sent away. Miyazaki Yu, what exactly did you do?

He was filled with mixed feelings. Although he knew that Miyazaki Yu was doing this to save people, he still felt inexplicably awkward.

In fact, although his personality is not entirely inflexible, his pursuit of justice has always been pure, and he hopes that the justice he believes in is perfect and flawless.

Although she knew Miyazaki Yu's predicament, she still found it difficult to calmly accept the fact that she had gone on a killing spree against him.

He wanted to persuade him, but he knew that this guy never took his words seriously and was even quite resistant to them.

He immediately took out his earring-shaped cell phone and dialed his parents' number. He knew that Yukiko and Yusaku Kudo were already on their way because of the attack on him.

However, his call didn't go through; instead, he got a dial tone, which made Conan's heart sink.

"Is this signal jamming? Right, this is the Russian Embassy in Los Angeles. It's perfectly normal for this place to be jammed for the sake of information security. But does that mean I have no other options?"

Leaving aside Conan's current anxiety, a huge change has already taken place in the outside world.

Within a single day, sensational headlines appeared in various news outlets and newspapers.

"A shocking conspiracy: the truth behind the Airbus hijacking!"

"The influence of extraordinary individuals on the normal world is quietly changing our lives."
