Detective: I'm Sato Miwako's Informant

Professor Hirota nodded: "It's me. By the way, you haven't answered my question yet."

The old man's eyes were very bright at this moment, and he stared intently at Bai Shixiu, as if trying to see something from the expression on his face.

Shiraishi Osamu nodded: "I am indeed Yami's friend, that is absolutely true."

Professor Hirota paused for a moment, then suddenly asked, "Is she alright now?"

"pretty good."

You're lying!

"Why do you say that?"

Shiraishi Xiu didn't understand why the old man said he was lying; he didn't seem to be wrong.

Hirota Masami, also known as Miyano Akemi, is doing quite well now. She's eating well at his house and is probably sleeping soundly too.

Professor Hirota's face showed sadness, and his mood soared as he slowly said:

"Today, the police called me and told me that Yamei has been murdered. Because she had no relatives, the police notified me, her former teacher. If you were truly her friend, you couldn't possibly not know this. So, what is your real purpose?"

As the old man finished speaking, his eyes suddenly sharpened, and his bent body seemed to straighten out, staring at Bai Shixiu with great majesty.

Shiraishi Osamu touched his nose.

I was speechless.

When I watched Detective Conan before, I never saw the police notify the deceased's family.

Why is he acting so normal when it comes to me today? That's really ridiculous.

There was a slight silence in the room.

There seems to be a bit more tension now, and an unnecessary conflict could easily erupt if we're not careful.

"cough……"

Shiraishi Xiu coughed, reached to his waist, and a Desert Eagle pistol appeared in his hand.

Professor Hirota showed no fear whatsoever, and simply began to speak on his own:

"Sigh, it doesn't matter whether you're Yamei's friend or not now. Since she's gone, everything is in the past. By the way, she left something with me, just a disk."

After that, things were simple.

Bai Shixiu is reasonable and understanding.

Professor Hirota was also reasonable.

After confirming each other's identities, the two chatted for a few minutes, and Shiraishi Xiu took the magnetic disk from the other party's hand.

At the main gate...

Professor Hirota kindly escorted Osamu Shiraishi out and gave him some very gentle advice:

"Sir, the item has been handed over to you. Please be careful not to lose it."

"Thank you for your concern, goodbye."

"Ah."

As Shiraishi Osamu slowly walked away into the darkness, Professor Hirota opened his mouth, but said nothing more.

He wasn't threatened with a gun.

He wasn't afraid of death either.

But now he's old and frail, and there are some things he can't do. Knowing he can't stop the other party, he won't do anything foolish.

He didn't even ask Shiraishi Osamu's name yesterday, nor did he even glance at him much, just to make the other person believe that he hadn't noticed his appearance.

After all, even crickets and ants are still...

Ahem, he's a man of great integrity, but he only chose to believe Shiraishi Osamu after confirming that he was Hirota Masami's friend.

the other side.

In a secluded corner, Shiraishi Xiu transformed and soared into the sky once more.

Flying through the air, gazing at the shimmering city below, he murmured to himself:

"This old man is very savvy."

"As expected, old age brings wisdom."

"Forget it, let's just go find Yukiko. We can enjoy her charms for a while longer; whatever happens, it won't be a loss."

Chapter 0164: Yukiko's OCD

Under the cover of darkness.

The lights were still on at the Kudo residence.

Conan went to Professor Agasa's house next door and was doing something mysterious.

Yukiko was wearing a face mask in her bedroom, looking at herself in the mirror with a slight smile on her lips.

Outside the dark window, Shiraishi Xiu quietly descended to the window, looking at everything inside. His battle armor slowly disappeared, and he stood by the window on the balcony.

He reached out and pushed the window, only to find it locked from the inside. After a moment's thought, he crouched down and let out a weak, strange cry:

“D seedling?—”

Yukiko, who was standing in front of the mirror in her bedroom, looked towards the window upon hearing the sound.

But seeing nothing, he could only walk over with a curious look and gently open the window.

"You're too easy to fool!"

The sudden sound startled her. She looked down and saw Shiraishi Xiu crouching under the window. A glint flashed in her eyes, but she smiled and said:

"Oh, it's you! I really didn't expect you to come over in the middle of the night."

Haha, just came to see you.

Shiraishi Osamu stood up with a smile, looking at the woman in front of him. Unfortunately, her face was covered by a face mask, so his expression was completely hidden.

He squeezed through the window in front of him, closed it behind him, and began to look around the room.

The decor is quite nice, but the only thing that bothers him is the huge bed in the room. It's so big that it could probably sleep six or seven people without any problem.

Yukiko gently peeled off the face mask and threw it into the trash can, asking curiously, "Are we going to rest here tonight?"

"May I?"

"Sure."

"it is good."

Shiraishi Osamu nodded and no longer refused.

Yukiko smiled and quickly rummaged through the closet, eventually pulling out a set of pajamas:

“These are all Yusaku Kudo’s clothes. You two are about the same size, so they fit you perfectly.”

"Ah."

Shiraishi Xiu took it and placed it on the bed, then sat down on the edge of the bed.

Yukiko sat down beside him naturally, smiling, and asked, "Are you going to sleep now?"

"It's still early, how about we chat?"

What would you like to talk about?

"Well..."

Osamu Shiraishi drawled, slowly looking into Yukiko's calm eyes. Remembering Vermouth's words, he said, word by word:

"You want to kill me, don't you?"

The surroundings suddenly became quiet.

It became so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

The man and woman stared at each other, each trying to read something from the other's eyes.

Yukiko unconsciously clenched her fist, and a bright smile suddenly appeared on her face. She said with amusement, "Shu, what are you talking about? This joke isn't funny."

Shiraishi Xiu continued to look at her. Now that he had brought it up, he had to make things clear, otherwise it would be pointless to continue like this.

"call……"

Taking a deep breath, Shiraishi Osamu looked at Yukiko and said seriously, "You know, what happened last time wasn't intentional. And you can't blame it all on me; you were very proactive back then!"

Yukiko's smile gradually faded. Since Shiraishi Osamu wanted to speak, she didn't bother pretending anymore and said coldly, "But in the end, you're the one who benefits. Isn't that right?"

"But I'm at a disadvantage too! You're almost ten years older than me."

Yukiko's face immediately darkened. She had seen shameless people before, but she had never seen anyone as shameless as this.

Shiraishi Osamu added, "So if you want revenge, you shouldn't come to me. If you want to find that woman, the two of us can join forces, and I won't stop you from doing whatever you want."

Yukiko didn't speak, she just shook her head.

She has already given so much.

First, she divorced Yusaku Kudo, and then she did that kind of thing on the last cruise ship. It's impossible for her to give up because of one or two words.

Osamu Shiraishi frowned and said helplessly, "So, Ms. Yukiko, what exactly do you want?"

Yukiko's eyes flashed with malice as she bluntly said, "I want to kill you, and then kill the woman who plotted against me."

"You're no good. From now on, I'll avoid you whenever I see you and won't give you a chance at all."

"Ha ha……"

Yukiko smiled, reached out and wrapped her arms around Shiraishi Osamu's neck, leaned close to his ear, and whispered:

"Really...you really can bear to part with me? How about we make a bet? We'll continue like this, and whether I can kill you or not is my business. Are you up for the bet?"

"Don't dare."

"coward!!!"

"Don't dare."

"Jadeite!!!"
