Detective Conan: Birth of the Demon Child

Under the surprised gazes of Kurosaki Tamaka and Inoue Ryuichi, Suzuki Seimei took out a can of orange juice from his pocket and handed it to Haibara Ai.

To be honest, this wasn't the first time Kurosaki Tamaka and the others had seen Suzuki Seimei perform magic tricks.

But every time I see Seimei Suzuki perform magic tricks, I still have the illusion that I'm dreaming.

In particular, Kurosaki Tamaka, as Suzuki Seimei's personal maid, once curiously checked the pockets of Suzuki Seimei's clothes while washing them, but found no hidden mechanisms on them.

What Kurosaki Tamaka couldn't understand the most was that Suzuki Seimei had never specifically studied magic with anyone, so how could his magic be so amazing?

Could it really be as Suzuki Haruaki said, that he simply learned such amazing magic tricks from watching magicians perform on TV?

Could our young master really be one of those super geniuses who can master everything at once?

No doubt about it!

Young Master Seimei must be a super genius, otherwise how could such a young child draw "Pokémon," such a phenomenal and popular anime?

Perhaps because Suzuki Seimei had shown great talent since childhood, even when Kurosaki Tamaka and Inoue Ryuichi inadvertently discovered some of his secrets, they would subconsciously regard him as a monstrous genius and automatically come up with suitable reasons in their minds.

After all, the difference between people can be greater than the difference between people and pigs.

Holy crap!!!

Just as Suzuki Seimei was admiring the beautiful underwater scenery, a corpse with wide-open eyes, its eyes wide open in death, suddenly floated in front of him.

The pale face was less than twenty centimeters away from him, which startled him so much that he immediately swore.

His hair stood on end uncontrollably!

puff...

Ai Haibara was initially startled by the sudden appearance of the corpse, but when she saw that Suzuki Haruaki's hair was standing on end in fright, she couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle.

Don't underestimate Ai Haibara just because she's a little girl. She's a very skilled drug researcher. She's dissected at least several thousand mice. One corpse won't scare her.

?(????ω????)?

Hearing Ai Haibara's laughter, Seimei Suzuki blushed slightly.

To be honest, Suzuki Seimei was quite knowledgeable and experienced, and he wouldn't be so frightened by a corpse.

But the corpse appeared out of nowhere, and Suzuki Seimei was completely unprepared. Who could stand this?

"It's Mr. Asahi Katsuyoshi!"

When Kogoro Mouri saw the corpse clearly, his expression changed drastically. Veins bulged on his forehead, and he clenched his fists tightly.

Murakami Takeshi attacked people close to Kogoro Mouri in order to get revenge on him.

The person attacked by Murakami Takeshi earlier only suffered some injuries, yet Kogoro Mouri already felt extremely guilty.

Now that he has seen Asahi Katsuyoshi die because of him, Kogoro Mouri is so angry that he wants to kill someone.

That damn bastard!

"Nine of Spades! It really was Murakami Takeru who did it."

Upon seeing the playing card pinned to Asahi Katsuyoshi's chest, Inspector Megure's expression turned grim.

As a veteran detective, Inspector Megure knew he shouldn't act on emotion.

However, when faced with a criminal like Murakami Takeshi who had come out of prison but remained unrepentant, Inspector Megure couldn't help but feel the urge to shoot him dead.

"Team leader, the elevator doors are locked with electronic locks and can't be opened!"

"What did you say?! I'm calling... Damn it! No signal!"

Upon hearing Officer Shiratori's words, Inspector Megure's expression changed drastically. He quickly took out his cell phone to call for backup, only to find that there was no signal at all underwater.

Kogoro Mouri said, "Inspector Megure, Inspector Shiratori and I found an escape route while searching this place. Perhaps we can get out from there."

"Alright! Then I'll trouble you to lead the way. Everyone, please come along too! As long as no one is alone, that guy Murakami Takeshi won't have a chance to take advantage of us."

After Inspector Megure finished speaking, he led Seimei Suzuki and the others, following behind Kogoro Mouri and Inspector Shiratori, towards the direction of the escape route.

(〃＞ dishes＜)

It's unbearable to repair!

"Damn it! The emergency exit has been blocked with cement!"

When Kogoro Mouri tried to open the emergency exit, he found that he could only open it a small crack. Looking out through the crack, he could see a pile of cement half a meter high outside the door.

"What should we do? Aren't we going to be trapped here and die?!" Upon hearing this, Nana Koyama turned pale.

Just as everyone was about to give up on the escape route, Suzuki Haruaki suddenly called out, "Don't worry, everyone, Ran-neechan is here!"

stare--

Upon hearing Suzuki Haruaki's words, everyone instinctively looked at Mouri Ran, their eyes filled with anticipation.

Suzuki Haruaki, with a serious expression, egged him on: "Ran-neechan, just imagine this door is Shinichi-nii. He hasn't been back for so long, maybe he's hooking up with some other pretty girls outside. Don't you want to kick him away?"

Baka yarou!

You brat, you're trying to kill me!

Sensing the growing anger emanating from Ran Mouri, Conan's expression changed drastically, and he felt an urge to strangle his friend, Seimei Suzuki.

"Shinichi, come back here right now!!!"

Ran Mouri walked to the emergency exit, took a deep breath, and then suddenly raised her right leg and kicked out, slamming it hard against the emergency exit like a heavy axe.

"boom!!!"

With a loud bang, the solid wood escape door burst open, revealing a large hole large enough for one person to pass through.

"Gudong!"

Seeing this, everyone subconsciously swallowed.

What a 'weak woman' with both strength and speed!

Conan was terrified and broke out in a cold sweat. If Ran found out his true identity, he would probably be sent straight to the crematorium.

Absolutely! Absolutely! She absolutely cannot find out!

"call……"

After kicking the emergency exit door open, Ran Mouri slowly retracted her long leg and exhaled a breath of stale air.

As expected of Miss Ran!

Upon seeing this, Inoue Ryuichi's eyes were filled with barely suppressed envy.

genius!

Ran Mouri is absolutely a one-in-a-million martial arts genius!

If she weren't exceptionally gifted, Ran Mouri would never have been able to master karate to such a high level at the age of seventeen.

For an ordinary person to master karate, it would take at least thirty to forty years.

Furthermore, even if an ordinary person masters karate to a high level, it would be impossible for them to unleash the same fighting power as Ran Mouri.

For example, the military combat techniques that Inoue Ryuichi practiced were even more effective in actual combat than karate.

Although Ryuichi Inoue's martial arts talent is not as good as Ran Mouri's, he is already thirty-nine years old this year and has spent decades honing his military combat skills to a high level.

However, Ryuichi Inoue couldn't do what Ran Mouri did—kick open the escape door like that.

Because Inoue Ryuichi's physique was not as strong as Mouri Ran's, before he could even kick the escape door open, his leg would be broken by the recoil.

Therefore, Ryuichi Inoue really envied Ran Mouri's talent. This extraordinary physical strength was enough to make ordinary people feel despair.

One percent talent is far more important than ninety-nine percent effort!

"Is this woman a monster?!"

Looking at the escape route that Ran Mouri had forcefully kicked open, Hiroko Sawaki, hidden in the crowd, twitched at the corner of his eye.

According to Sawaki Kohei's plan, he intended to trap Kogoro Mouri and his group inside the underwater restaurant, and then take the opportunity to kill the few people he really wanted to kill.

That's right!

The real culprit in this case was not Murakami Takeshi, but the bartender, Sawaki Kohei.

Because Kogoro Mouri often went to the restaurant where Kohei Sawaki worked for drinks, he knew a lot about Kogoro Mouri.

The real Murakami Takeshi had no intention of taking revenge on Mouri Kogoro; he had already been secretly murdered by Sawaki Kohei.

Sawaki Kohei only wanted to make Murakami Takeshi a scapegoat, so that the police would mistakenly believe that he was the real culprit in the case.

In reality, Sawaki Kohei only wanted to kill four people. He attacked Inspector Megure and his team simply to confuse the situation.

Aside from Asahi Katsuyoshi, who is already dead, the only people Sawaki Kohei truly wanted to kill were Tsuji Hiroki, Koyama Nana, and Nishina Minoru.

If it weren't for Conan sneaking onto the helicopter, Tsuji Hiroki would definitely have died.

"Xiao Lan, well done!"

Inspector Megure gave Ran a thumbs-up, then turned to Kogoro Mouri and said, "Brother Mouri, it's too dangerous here. Let Ran take the children out first!"

"Ah."

Kogoro Mouri nodded slightly and said, "Ran, go out and check the situation first. Once you've confirmed it's safe, I'll hand Conan and the others over to you."

"I see."

As soon as Ran finished speaking, she was the first to squeeze out of the emergency exit, her face full of vigilance as she looked around the passageway. "Dad, there's no one else outside. Can you bring Conan and the others over here?"

While Kogoro Mouri and the others were focused on the three children, Kohei Sawaki secretly reached into his pocket and pressed the button for the remote-controlled bomb.

"boom!"

With a soft explosion, the small bomb installed on the power switch detonated instantly, plunging the entire underwater restaurant into darkness.

"Who are you? Don't come any closer! Ah..."

Before anyone could react, Ze Muping suddenly screamed in terror, as if he had really been attacked by someone.

"Mr. Zeki, what's wrong?"
