Detective Conan: Birth of the Demon Child

"Of course you can."

"That's great, buddy, wait a minute!"

The little boy with the hooded headdress ran excitedly into the room and handed the newly bought Pokémon comic book and marker to Suzuki Haruaki.

"Swish..."

After receiving the comic book, Suzuki Seimei skillfully wrote his signature on the first blank page.

"Thank you, sir. I will treasure this comic book like a precious gem."

"Sorry to keep you all waiting, today's main course is here~" A gentle voice rang out, and a beautiful woman in a light purple kimono walked out of the kitchen carrying a plate full of delicious food.

"Oh dear, I'm so sorry to trouble you today, Auntie." Wakamatsu Toshihide quickly got up to help take the plates and neatly arranged the food on the table.

Sonoko Suzuki said with some surprise, "Auntie? You're Mr. Minagawa's mother? You look so young!"

"This young lady certainly has a sweet tongue~" The beautiful woman in purple chuckled softly, covering her mouth, and gestured for everyone to join in: "Please, everyone, make yourselves at home and have a great time!"

Suzuki Seimei rubbed his somewhat shrunken belly and tugged at Ran Mouri's sleeve, saying, "Ran-neechan, I want to eat that grilled shrimp."

"Okay, I'll get it for you. Eat slowly, be careful it's hot."

"Ran-neechan, I want one too~" Conan, not to be outdone, moved closer to Ran Mouri and began to whine in his childish voice.

"Okay, I'll help you pick it up too~"

"Miss Xiaolan is so gentle..."

Seeing this, Toshihide Wakamatsu, who had feelings for Ran Mouri, felt that she was radiating the glow of a virtuous wife and loving mother, and his heart was about to melt.

???(ˊ?ˋ)???*

She really is an angel~

To Wakamatsu Toshihide's dismay, he didn't know if the two little devils did it on purpose or not, but they surrounded Ran Mouri from both sides, making it difficult for him to get close to her.

Suzuki Haruaki didn't care what others thought. While eating the fragrant grilled shrimp, he tried hard to recall the plot.

If Suzuki Haruaki is not mistaken, the victim in this case should be Minagawa Katsuhiko.

According to Suzuki Haruaki's observation, Minagawa Katsuhiko, although handsome, had a rather nasty personality and liked to say hurtful things.

In the world of "Detective Conan", any character who appears in a case and is prone to offending others is usually likely to be the victim in the case, a phenomenon known as "pre-death syndrome".

Now that the deceased's identity has been confirmed, the next step is to find the culprit hiding among the crowd.

Among the people present, the most likely culprit is probably the fat man named Naomichi. He was bullied the most by Minagawa Katsuhiko and is the most likely to kill out of hatred.

However, according to the laws of physics, the more someone looks like a criminal, the less likely they are to be the real criminal, while the less likely someone is to be a criminal, the more likely they are to be the real criminal.

Excluding the three children present, as well as Sonoko Suzuki and Ran Mouri, the least likely person among the remaining four to be the woman in purple should be the one who committed the crime.

As the saying goes, "Even a tiger won't eat its cubs," so it's unlikely that the beautiful woman in purple would kill her own child.

Logically speaking, the woman in purple shouldn't be the murderer, but seeing the three large characters "Check-in Available" floating above her and Minagawa Katsuhiko's heads, Suzuki Seimei couldn't help but have doubts.

Based on Suzuki Seimei's previous experience with signing in, the characters who become sign-in targets should be those with significant plot importance.

They must be either the main characters or supporting characters from the original work, or the murderers and victims in the case plot; ordinary extras do not meet the sign-in standards.

However, what Suzuki Haruaki couldn't understand was why Wakamatsu Toshihide also met the criteria for the sign-in person. Could it be that there were two victims in this case?

Suzuki Seimei temporarily suppressed his doubts and, under the pretext of going to the toilet, secretly touched the beautiful woman in purple and Minagawa Katsuhiko.

"Ding! Congratulations on successfully checking in Fujiwara Misae. You are rewarded with a [Mom's Meal Box], which you can claim at any time."

"Ding! Congratulations on successfully signing in to Minagawa Katsuhiko. You are rewarded with two years of lifespan, which you can claim at any time."

"(O_o)??"

Upon hearing the system notification in his mind, Suzuki Seimei's expression changed slightly, and then he showed a look of sudden realization.

Judging from the surname of the beautiful woman in purple, it is clear that she is not Minagawa Katsuhiko's biological mother; otherwise, her surname would be Minagawa, not Fujiwara.

If Minagawa Katsuhiko is not his biological son, then according to the laws of Detective Conan, the chances of the purple-clad beauty being the murderer would be greatly increased.

Now that the identity of the murderer has been basically confirmed, Suzuki Seimei only needs to keep a close eye on her and prevent her from having the opportunity to commit the crime, and he can prevent another tragedy from happening.

In the anime "Detective Conan", most of the murderers are actually impulsive killers. If they are stopped in time once, they will basically not dare to have the thought of killing again.

After making his decision, Suzuki Seimei immediately began to check the attributes of the new item.

Note: There's only one mother in the world who is good...

While Suzuki Seimei was in the restroom, Wakamatsu Toshihide quickly sat down to Ran Mouri's left and secretly reached out his palm towards her small hand.

(｀?′)Ψ

Conan noticed Wakamatsu Toshihide's little movements, a mischievous smile appeared on his lips, and he quietly ran to Ran Mouri's left side, blocking the two of them.

"What adorable little hands..." When the upright and serious Wakamatsu Toshihide touched Conan's palm, he thought he was touching Ran Mouri's little hand. He was so excited that he couldn't help but gently pull it.

According to Toshihide Wakamatsu's plan, he intended to pull Ran Mouri into his arms.

As a result, Conan, who was too light, was pulled into the air and fell uncontrollably into his arms, and the two men kissed!

"(?Д?)ノ"

Seeing this, Ran Mouri, who was sitting to the side, was so frightened that she froze on the spot.

vomit……

Realizing what had happened, Toshihide Wakamatsu quickly pushed Conan away, and then the two grown men slumped to the side and began to dry heave.

Deska!

Having just emerged from the restroom, Suzuki Haruaki witnessed Conan lose his first kiss and instantly understood why Wakamatsu Toshihide, a minor character, met the criteria for a "sign-in target".

Even if Toshihide Wakamatsu is just a minor character, the fact that he stole the protagonist's first kiss already makes him more significant than many supporting characters.

Unbelievable, unbelievable!

"By the way, could we ask someone to come out and perform a show?" Minagawa Katsuhiko put down his beer can and, emboldened by the alcohol, ordered Naomichi, "Naomichi, come out and perform!"

"I'm sorry, I'm not good at this kind of thing."

Normally, Naomichi might not have dared to refuse Minagawa Katsuhiko's orders, but he didn't want to embarrass himself in front of his crush.

"What did you say?! How dare you disobey me!" Minagawa Katsuhiko felt humiliated when he saw this coward dare to refuse his orders. He snorted coldly, "Hmph! Just seeing your gloomy face makes me feel uncomfortable."

"Sonoko, Mr. Minagawa's attitude was really too bad, wasn't it?" Ran Mouri couldn't help but whisper as she watched Katsuhiko Minagawa get up and leave.

Upon hearing this, Sonoko Suzuki, who was suffering from severe infatuation, smiled and waved her hand, saying, "That's how boys should be; that's what makes them unique~"

"Sonoko-neechan, don't mistake ignorance for personality, or brainlessness for honesty. His annoying personality can easily lead to his death." Suzuki Haru glanced at Sonoko and complained speechlessly.

To be honest, Sonoko Suzuki isn't exactly unintelligent, but her tendency to swoon over handsome men is truly a headache.

"What do you know, you little brat? Once you eat my chocolate, Mr. Minagawa will be mine." Sonoko completely ignored Suzuki Harumi's words, excitedly taking the chocolate she had specially prepared and chasing after Minagawa Katsuhiko in the direction he had left.

╯ (╯ ▽ ╰) ╭

Suzuki Harumi shook his head wearily; his infatuated older sister was truly hopeless.

"Ah Xiang?"

Katsuhiko Minagawa, who had just come out of the restroom, looked somewhat surprised when he saw Kaori Sekiya waiting outside the door.

Guan Gu Xiang said, "Hey, even if I'm begging you, can you please stop bullying Zhidao?"

"Hmph! I get angry just looking at that guy. He's always so gloomy and keeps everything bottled up inside. If he's so capable, he should just say it out loud!"

“Keyan, you’ve really changed. You’re not the same as before. Ever since that incident, you’ve been giving up on yourself. If your aunt and uncle were still alive, they certainly wouldn’t want to see you like this.”

"What do you know?!"

"Of course I understand, I'm your childhood friend!" Guan Gu Xiang said, her pretty face slightly flushed, as she handed the chocolates she had prepared to Minagawa Katsuhiko: "Would you like to accept this box of chocolates?"

"..."

Minagawa Katsuhiko remained silent for a while, then finally said resolutely, "Take it! I just want to be ordinary friends with you."

"Really? You really do like beautiful things." Guan Gu Xiang sighed, her eyes filled with undisguised disappointment, and took the chocolate back.

Click!

Yuanzi, who was eavesdropping in the corner, felt as if a bolt from the blue had struck her head, and her excited heart instantly shattered in two.

I didn't even have a chance to confess my feelings before I was dumped. I really want to write a big "miserable" on the wall!

When Ran saw Sonoko staggering back with a look of utter despair, she couldn't help but ask worriedly, "Sono...Sonoko, are you alright?"

"Crack, crack..."

Sonoko silently shook her head, tore off the chocolate wrapper, and quickly ate the chocolate she had carefully prepared.

Suzuki Seimei sighed helplessly and handed over the cup of tea in front of him: "Have some tea, don't choke."

Although my second sister is a bit of a fangirl, she has one good point: she doesn't cry or make a scene after a breakup; she just eats a lot and feels better.

Even so, Suzuki Seimei was still somewhat annoyed and suddenly didn't want to save Minagawa Katsuhiko anymore.

"Katsuhiko, I have something I want to tell you." Watanabe Yoshimi rushed to greet Minagawa Katsuhiko when he returned and took him aside to whisper to him.

Upon seeing this, Fujiwara Misae's expression changed slightly. She got up and walked into the kitchen, closing the kitchen door behind her without making a sound.
