Detective Conan: Birth of the Demon Child

Yoshiki Nigaki did not regret his actions. If Amari had not died, how could he have had the opportunity to take advantage of the situation and win both wealth and beauty from Amari?

Although Gan Liyako discovered her true colors, Futagaki Yoshiki had been dating her for four years and had long since grown tired of her, so he didn't feel much regret about the breakup.

"boom!

! ”

Just as Yoshiki Futagaki was pondering how to extort more money from the two hunters, a muffled sound suddenly rang out in the darkness.

"Ah ah ah..."

Yoshiki Nigaki felt a numbness in his legs and fell uncontrollably to the ground. A sharp pain followed, causing him to scream in agony.

Two hunters, carrying shotguns and grinning maliciously, emerged from the darkness and walked towards Yoshiki Futagaki, who was unable to escape.

One of the hunters, with a full beard, was none other than Yuzo Sakami, who had spoken with Suzuki Seimei and the others earlier. The other hunter was the friend he had mentioned.

On the surface, Yuzo Sakami and his companions are ordinary hunters, but in reality, they are ruthless poachers.

Some climbers, after accidentally discovering that Yuzo Sakami and his group were poachers, would be immediately silenced by them.

It is precisely because of this that accidents and disappearances of climbers frequently occur in the deep mountains near Chuido Mountain Villa.

The avalanche that killed Amari Shiatsu was also caused by Yuzo Sakami firing his gun indiscriminately.

After the avalanche, Yuzo Sakami was worried that the police would find out about their poaching, so he kept it a secret.

However, what Yuzo Sakami did not expect was that Yoshiki Nigaki would actually film the scene of Natsuya Amari and the others' deaths, and even plan to use it to blackmail him.

Yuzo Sakami knew very well that if he really gave Yoshiki Nigaki a sum of money, then Yoshiki Nigaki would definitely become a clingy pest, sticking to him for the rest of his life.

Therefore, Yuzo Sakami decided to kill him and tricked Yoshiki Nigaki into going to Fukito Villa, intending to kill him there.

"You...you guys, don't come any closer..."

Seeing the malicious looks on Yuzo Sakami's face, Yoshiki Nigaki finally felt the threat of death and began to regret his actions.

If I had known it would turn out like this, I should have destroyed that videotape sooner!

If it weren't for that videotape, Gan Liya wouldn't have discovered her true colors, and she wouldn't be in this predicament now.

People die for wealth, birds die for food!

Unfortunately, by the time Yoshitaka Futagaki understood this, it was already too late.

Instead of killing Yoshiki Nigaki immediately, Yuzo Sakami and his men tortured him severely, extracting information about the videotape's whereabouts from him before finally shooting him in the head.

“That videotape should be in that woman’s hands now, and she’s already seen its contents. Should we just…” As soon as Yuzo Sakami’s accomplice finished speaking, he made a throat-slitting gesture toward him.

Since they've already killed Yoshiki Futagaki, killing one more person who knows the truth won't matter.

Upon hearing this, Yuzo Sakami thought for a moment and said, "Let's get that videotape back first, and we can talk about the rest later."

To avoid attracting the attention of the police, Yuzo Sakami did not want to kill too many people at once.

However, when all else fails, Yuzo Sakami wouldn't hesitate to kill everyone at Fukitoyamasou.

Anyway, it's snowing outside, so there's no need to worry about outsiders coming to Chuidu Manor. As long as all the witnesses are killed, their secrets won't be exposed.

Having made up his mind, Yuzo Sakami first had his accomplices help him bury Yoshiki Nigaki's body. Then, the two of them acted as if nothing had happened and swaggered back to Fukito Villa.

Shortly after Yuzo Sakami and his group left, a man wearing a blue ski suit, a knitted hat, and goggles emerged from the dark woods.

"This is……"

When the man in the ski suit noticed the remaining blood and bullet marks on the snow, a hint of worry flashed in his eyes.

"Yako, you haven't found Futagaki either?"

Mika Konakawa was unaware of Yoshiki Nigaki's true identity. When she saw that only Riyako Kanari had returned, she couldn't help but show a worried expression.

???

Upon hearing this, Kanariko, who had just returned to Fukitosan Villa, blinked in confusion.

Since Yoshiki Nigaki had already left, and Riyako Kanari had spoken with Aizen for a while, she assumed that Yoshiki Nigaki had already returned to Fukiwa Villa.

Upon learning that Yoshiki Futagaki had not yet returned, Ganriyako suddenly recalled Aizen's words. Could it be...?

"Shiguo, I have something to tell you. Come with me!"

Seeing the worried expression on Mika's face, Amariya decided to tell her the truth. Otherwise, if she made her worry about that scumbag Yoshiki Futagaki, Amariya would probably die with her eyes open in disgrace.

After bringing Mika back to the second-floor bedroom, Gan Liya took out a camera and played the contents of the death videotape.

"Waaaaah..."

After watching the contents of the death videotape, Mika Konakawa couldn't help but burst into tears.

Because Natsuya Amari's body has never been found, Mika Konakawa still holds onto a sliver of hope that he is still alive.

However, the contents of this death videotape completely extinguished the last glimmer of hope in Mika Konakawa's heart.

Even if Ganrisha were incredibly skilled, it would be impossible for him to survive that avalanche while injured.

"Shiguo, don't be too sad. If your brother is watching from heaven, he certainly wouldn't want to see you like this..."

Seeing this, Gan Liya's eyes also turned red. She reached out and hugged Konakawa Mika, gently stroking her back to comfort her.

The fact that Minakawa Mika visits Amari Natsuya's grave every year and even prepares chess-themed chocolates for him shows that she has never forgotten him.

Chapter 379 Never Forget to Finish Off the Shot

Gan Liya knew the truth of this matter and how cruel it was to Konakawa Mika, but she knew that a short, sharp pain was better than a long, drawn-out one.

In the past, Gan Liya had always held a sliver of hope that her brother had survived the avalanche, believing that he might have just been injured and lost his memory, which was why he hadn't come back to find them.

But after watching that death videotape, Gan Liya knew she could no longer deceive herself.

Furthermore, Kanari also hopes that Mika Funakawa can see through Yoshitaka Futagaki's true colors and no longer be deceived by that despicable and shameless guy.

After learning the truth about the avalanche that year, Mika Funaka couldn't help but resent Yoshitaka Nigaki for not helping her in her time of need. She wished that Nigaki would get lost and die outside, so she didn't care about his safety at all.

Meanwhile, Ran Mouri and the others were in the kitchen preparing dinner for Tamaka Kurosaki, and no one noticed whether Yoshiki Futagaki had returned.

Seimei Suzuki and Conan sat on the sofa in the restaurant, playing a fighting game together while waiting for a sumptuous dinner.

Meanwhile, Ai Haibara was teasing Black Whirlwind and Saburo. The bear and the dog were getting along very well, sitting obediently in front of her, waiting for her to feed them snacks.

"Squeak!"

As the door opened, Yuzo Sakami and his companion walked in from outside, carrying hunting rifles on their backs.

A faint smell of blood and gunpowder, carried by the cold air that filled the hall when the door opened, wafted in.

"Wang Wang Wang..."

Saburo, who had previously received the Medal of Honor for Search and Rescue Dogs, immediately sensed something was wrong and shouted at Yuzo Sakami and the others.

"Waaaaah..."

Influenced by Saburo, Black Whirlwind also let out a low roar towards Yuzo Sakura and the others.

"Black Whirlwind, Sanlang, what's wrong with you two?"

Seeing Black Whirlwind and Saburo suddenly become so agitated, Ai Haibara seemed somewhat at a loss.

"boom!

! ”

Seeing this, Yuzo Sakami's accomplice's eyes flashed with a cold light. He suddenly raised his shotgun, fired a shot at the ceiling, and shouted impatiently, "Shut up, all of you!"

The loud gunshot startled Black Whirlwind and the dog, causing them to instinctively shut their mouths.

"Oops!"

Inoue Ryu, who was taking a shower on the second floor, changed his expression drastically upon hearing the gunshot. He quickly grabbed a towel, wiped the shampoo foam off his hair, picked up a pistol, and rushed out of the bedroom.

"What happened?"

Gan Liya and the others didn't immediately recognize the gunshot. They thought the TV downstairs had exploded and ran down to the second floor with worried expressions.

"All of you, get over to the sofa!"

As soon as Gan Liya and the others came down the stairs, they were threatened with shotguns by Yuzo Sakami and his gang, who forced them to walk to the sofa.

"Mr. Sakemi, what... what are you trying to do?"

Chiyoko Yuasa clearly hadn't grasped the situation and couldn't help but say, "Even if Saburo and the others are yelling at you, you don't need to use your guns, do you?"

"Shut up, you old hag!"

Yuzo Sakami roared angrily, then pointed his shotgun at Riyako Kanari and said in a cold tone, "You should have already seen that videotape, right? Hand it over to me now!"

"video tape?"

Upon hearing this, Gan Liya was slightly taken aback and subconsciously asked, "How did you know about the videotape?"

Mika Funaka suddenly said, "Ako, don't you understand yet? The people who injured Natsuya four years ago and caused them to perish in the avalanche are these two people right in front of you!"

When she suddenly heard the shot from the hunting rifle, Mika Konakawa didn't react for a moment.

However, considering what Yuzo Sakami just said, and the two similar gunshots in the death video, how could Mika Funaka not guess the truth of the matter?

“That’s right! That avalanche was caused by the two of us because we mistook your brother for a Japanese wolf.”

Yuzo Sakami sneered, "I didn't expect that guy Nigaki would actually film the avalanche and try to blackmail us with it, so we just killed that idiot!"

"You...you've already killed Nigaki?!"

Upon hearing this, Gan Liya's eyes widened suddenly, and the words Aizen had said unconsciously flashed through her mind.

"Of course! We won't be lenient with such a fool who doesn't know his own limitations. We tortured him severely before we finally got the information that the videotape was in your possession. Hand it over now!"

Upon hearing what Yuzo Sakami said, everyone's expressions immediately turned grim. His public admission of his crimes clearly indicated that he intended to kill them to silence them.

(－＂－)

Hidden in the corner on the second floor, Inoue Ryuichi, who was using a mirror to observe the situation in the lobby on the first floor, couldn't help but frown.

With Inoue Ryuichi's marksmanship, taking down Sakami Yuzo and his group would be incredibly easy.

However, Suzuki Seimei and Sonoko were also in the hall, and Sakami Yuzo and the others had their hunting rifles pointed at Suzuki Seimei and Sonoko.
