Shirou's clones number 30 million

"Huh...? That's really good at patting himself on the back."

Hayami Shirou chuckled and glanced around at the others below, noticing that his sons seemed to share the same thought.

"Disgusting! A gentleman loves money, but he acquires it in a proper way."

"The biggest difference between humans and animals is that humans have reason and can control their desires."

"If you don't exercise restraint and let your desires control your body, what's the difference between you and an animal?"

"Through generations of struggle, human ancestors finally trampled all animals underfoot, making humankind the species at the top of the world."

"But you want to go back to the old ways, abandon your human identity, and become a beast again."

"It's a pity I'm not Alaya, otherwise I would definitely expel you from the human realm."

As he spoke, Hayami Shirou unconsciously thought of his adoptive father from his previous life, Kotomine Kirei.

That's how he was. He listened to Gilgamesh's fallacies, indulged his own desires, and transformed from a priest who was originally an enemy of darkness into darkness itself.

Thinking of this, Hayami Shirou no longer had the intention of arguing with him, and instead looked at the other people in the audience.

“I propose that when the Zeyue family lineage is published, the underage girls present be omitted, and the names of the remaining people should not be changed at all.”

Underage female?

Makoto Ito immediately realized that he was not included in this, and quickly looked at his mother beside him, hoping that she would say a few words on his behalf.

Ito Moeko hesitated for a few seconds, then raised her hand and said:

"Um, why are there only underage girls here? There are quite a few underage boys here too."

"Because all the adult males in the Zeyue family have violated the criminal law, without exception. And among the minors, many are also on the verge of committing crimes."

As he spoke, Hayami Shirou's gaze lingered on Ito Makoto and Sawanaga Taisuke for a few more seconds.

"Based on my detective's judgment, they will follow the same path as their parents in the future. To be on the safe side, we must raise public awareness about them."

"Haha..." Ze Yuezhi suddenly burst into laughter, "This is truly undisguised hostility. Do you really hate the Ze Yue family that much?"

"The detective's actions were not based on personal preference; I simply felt it was necessary to do so from a legal and ethical standpoint."

"Hehe... Solving such a major case, your fame is sure to rise to a new level, right? Famous detective."

"I've never cared about reputation or anything like that. I'm just doing what I believe is right."

"A famous detective? What kind of detective are you?" Ze Yuezhi glared at Hayami Shirou and said in a slightly suppressed voice, "A guy like you who only cares about fame and fortune will definitely be disgraced in the future!"

“I don’t care about the howling of a stray dog, but to avoid things getting out of control, could you please take him away, Director Saito?”

Director Saito waved his hand, and two policemen immediately grabbed Zekoshi's arms and dragged him away from the conference hall.

“If it’s good to see you sooner, then we’ll do as you just said: hide the underage girls, and disclose the rest of the information truthfully.”

"If it weren't for Hayami's insistence, this case would definitely have been suppressed. Such a case would surely shock the whole world."

"Wait! I have something else to say..."

Ito Moeko wanted to say a few more words in support of her son, but then she saw that the detective and the police officer in charge had already left the meeting room.

He tried to give chase, but was stopped by two policemen.

"Please do not go over there. Mr. Hayami has finished discussing the matter, but the matter concerning you is not yet resolved."

"They just want us to hear the results? What kind of negotiation is this? Cheng has never done anything wrong before, he..."

Just as Ito Moeko was about to speak, a new group of police officers walked in through the door.

“Shun, Ayumi Ino, Tomomasa Sawagoe... you are suspected of multiple crimes, including bigamy and coercion of women. Please come with us.”

Are we... also sentenced to death?

"I don't know, let's see how the court rules."

"Um, may I say a few more words to my wife?"

"Hurry up."

"clear."

Watching his brothers talking to their wives and daughters, Makoto Ito felt no envy whatsoever; only fear and unease filled his heart.

My eyes were glued to the table on the screen, unable to look away.

To my surprise, I turned out to be the uncle of Saionji and her classmates.

Will Dad die?

These brothers I've never met before, could they also die? Probably not.

If this picture is exposed, how am I supposed to live my life? I'll definitely have to transfer schools, right? But no matter where I transfer to, I'll have to live with this disgraceful reputation for the rest of my life.

By the way, Taisuke! He's also my nephew. I wonder what his plans are, since we're in the same situation?

Makoto Ito subconsciously looked at Taisuke Sawanaga, but what he saw was a bewildered and clueless face.

That's enough! This guy is even less useful than me.

What should I do now?

Chapter 394 So it was you who betrayed me, kid.

Chapter 394, Section 395: So it was you who betrayed me.

As evening fell, television news on various channels began broadcasting the latest case solved by Detective Hayami.

Some shows begin with Shirou Hayami's life story, while others start with Itsuki Sawagoe's birth.

Although they are talking about the same thing, the different perspectives result in completely different content.

At the Sanzenin residence, the young lady was also sitting on the sofa, watching the news report on television.

In the past, she rarely watched television, especially the dull and boring evening news.

However, since meeting Hayami Shirou a year ago, he has developed a habit of watching the news because Hayami appears in the news almost every few days.

The TV news anchor briefly recounted Hayami Shirou's life story before quickly beginning the explanation of the Sawakoshi family lineage network.

At the same time, a bloodline chart also appeared on the television screen.

“Maria! Maria…”

Hearing the young lady's call, Maria quickly ran over.

"What's wrong, Nagi?"

"Maria, do you think... all men want to have a harem?"

"I think it varies from person to person."

As she spoke, Maria glanced at the news broadcast on television and instantly understood.

"There should be an interview with Detective Hayami later on, then you'll know what he's thinking?"

"But I'm still a little worried. What if he's two-faced and lies on TV?"

Sanzenin Nagi paused, then said nervously:

"After all, he certainly wouldn't dare to say his true thoughts in the news."

Maria smiled gently and comforted her:

"Don't worry, the person Nagi likes is definitely not the type to say one thing and mean another. If you're really worried, just ask your informant."

"Uh-huh."

Sanzenin Nagi nodded repeatedly, took the phone Maria handed her, and dialed Ayasaki Hayate's number.

A year ago, with the help of Shirou Hayami, Maria and Hayate Ayasaki recognized each other and began to interact more often.

Although Hayate Ayasaki is the type of person who is absolutely impossible to bribe, he is just too unlucky and always inadvertently reveals a lot of information.

Six months ago, Maria felt that letting the young lady continue to pursue him like this was not a solution, so she asked Ayasaki Hayate to subtly inquire about what kind of girl Hayami Shirou liked and what his opinion of the young lady was.

Then, I learned what he was thinking.

He doesn't dislike the young lady; in fact, he quite likes her. However, out of consideration for adults and the opinions of others, he is unwilling to date an underage girl.

Thus, the two used this opportunity to win over Ayasaki Hayate.

The collaboration is limited to the romantic relationship between the two parties; once Hayami Shirou finds a girlfriend, the collaboration will immediately end.

However, if Hayami Shirou never finds a lover or any woman he is close to, Ayasaki Hayate will continue to help provide information about Hayami Shirou's whereabouts.

"Ayasaki, are you free right now?"

This is an unspoken understanding that has developed over the past six months. If the answer is yes, it means that with Hayami Shirou not around, anything can be said.

If the answer is no, then they are nearby, and you must hang up immediately.

If the answer is "wait a moment," it means you can find an opportunity to be alone, but you must hang up first and contact me again later.

"No."

......

Meanwhile, on the other end of the phone, at the Hayami Detective Agency.

"Xiao Sa, so it was you who betrayed me?"

"Huh...? What are you talking about?" Ayasaki Hayate paused, then asked cautiously.

"Stop pretending, I heard everything. Was that Nagi on the phone just now?"

Hayami Shirou looked at Ayasaki Hayate with a smile, his mind racing with unspoken criticisms.

He was just a normal person; if he didn't turn on speakerphone, he couldn't hear who was on the other end at all.

But now, I can hear it clearly, and it's impossible to pretend I can't hear it.

“You used to get those phone calls all the time, and I always thought they were from insurance salespeople. Now that I think about it, it was her calling all those times.”

"I thought she had some kind of supernatural ability that allowed her to monitor my every move, but it turns out it was you who betrayed me!"

"Well......"

Ayasaki Hayate lowered his head obediently and apologized softly.
