Detective Conan: Birth of the Demon Child

"Welcome! Are you only one person here?"

"I arranged to meet a girl here, but she doesn't seem to have arrived yet." The handsome man with long hair looked around the coffee shop and then turned to the clerk, saying, "Then please get me an empty double seat. I'll wait for her."

"Okay, please follow me."

Led by a coffee shop employee, the long-haired handsome man sat down in an empty seat not far from Suzuki Haruaki.

"Give me a cup of black tea first."

"Ok."

ding ding ding...

The coffee shop employee had just left when the long-haired handsome man's phone rang. He picked up the phone and said, "Hello, this is Prince Ruo."

It's him!

Upon hearing this, Suzuki Seimei and Mouri Ran subconsciously exchanged a glance, nodded in tacit agreement, and secretly began to observe the handsome long-haired man.

Seeing the two of them looking so gossipy, Eri Kisaki gave a helpless smile, and then... she quietly pricked up her ears.

Gossiping is human nature, and Eri Kisaki is no exception.

"What? Liangnan, it's you! I've made plans to meet a girl, so please don't mess things up, okay?"

"That's right, it's that high school girl from last time. There aren't many girls as innocent as her these days."

"Women are like that; if you just say a few nice words to them, you can easily win them over, hehehe..."

Hearing the long-haired handsome man's shameless words, both Suzuki Seimei and Mouri Ran got hard.

The fist has hardened!

I wonder if this Prince Ruo's head is as hard as a telephone pole. I hope he doesn't cause any deaths later!

Eri noticed the cracked coffee cup in Ran Mouri's hand and shook her head helplessly.

If my daughter accidentally kills someone later, I should be able to defend her and make her innocent, right?

"That guy's dead meat."

Conan, who was also eavesdropping, sensed the terrifying killing intent emanating from Suzuki Seimei and Mouri Ran, and even had a vague vision of demons appearing. He cast a sympathetic glance at the still smug Wakaoji.

what! ! !

Just as Prince Ruo was about to be brutally beaten, a terrified scream suddenly came from the toilet.

"Oops!"

Suzuki Seimei's expression changed drastically. He turned around and looked around, only to find that the woman wearing sunglasses had disappeared.

Conan, who was just about to watch the show, reflexively jumped up and swung his short legs into the toilet.

"Conan..."

Upon seeing Conan suddenly appear, Ran Mouri was slightly taken aback, and then quickly got up and chased after him.

Without hesitation, Suzuki Haruaki and Kisaki Eri followed closely behind and ran towards the restroom.

Conan rushed into the restroom first, and following the gaze of the coffee shop employee who was lying on the ground in fright, he saw a large amount of blood flowing from under the door of the innermost stall.

problem occurs!

Based on Conan's experience, a normal person would definitely be in mortal danger if they lost that much blood.

Conan rushed to the stall and pushed the door hard, only to find that although the toilet door was not locked, it was blocked by something and he couldn't open it at all.

boom!

With the help of high-tech sports shoes, Conan's jumping ability temporarily increased, and he leaped to the top of the cubicle door, finally able to see the scene inside.

The woman wearing sunglasses was lying in a bow position at the toilet entrance, with a large amount of blood splattered on her chest. Her wallet and dressing table were scattered on the floor, and a blood-stained dagger lay next to her body.

"Sister Xiaolan, call the police quickly! Someone is dead here!"

"oh oh……"

Upon hearing of the murder, Ran Mouri didn't even bother to ask Conan why he was there; she immediately dialed the police.

Damn!

Suzuki Seimei cursed inwardly, then turned to look at Wakaoji, who was watching from the toilet entrance, and secretly added another mark against him.

If Suzuki Seimei hadn't been distracted by this guy, he could have prevented this tragedy from happening and would definitely have taught him a lesson later.

However, compared to the scumbag Wakaoji, Suzuki Seimei now hates the murderer Tonoyama Juzo even more.

How dare they kill someone right under my nose? They really have no respect for me!

While everyone else's attention was focused on the victim, Suzuki Seimei secretly took out a 500 yen coin, used his "Money Power" to convert it into wealth, and inserted it into his nose.

With this financial support, Suzuki Haruaki's sense of smell was greatly enhanced, even surpassing that of many well-trained military dogs.

hiss……

Suzuki Seimei took a deep breath, and then... he almost vomited on the spot.

Don't forget, this is the toilet!

The sensation of that mixture of urine, blood, and sweat odor rushing into my nostrils was truly unpleasant.

Suzuki Seimei couldn't help but shed two lines of tears after his nasal cavity was suddenly subjected to such intense stimulation.

This is so damn addictive!

Despite the nauseating discomfort, Suzuki Seimei quickly discerned the distribution of the bloody smell in the toilet.

Besides the strong smell of blood emanating from the victim's surroundings, there was another person in the toilet who smelled of blood as well—that was Tonoyama Juzo, who pretended not to know the victim.

found it!

Following the direction of the bloody smell, Suzuki Seimei's gaze instantly locked onto Tonoyama Juzo's fingers, or more accurately, the bandages wrapped around them.

What an idiot! How dare you hide the murder weapon here! You're going to die!

Suzuki Haruaki cursed inwardly, stroked his chin, and began to deduce the murderer's crime.

After learning that the murderer was Tonoyama Juzo and that he used bandages to commit the crime, Suzuki Seimei quickly deduced the entire crime process.

Beep~woo~~Beep~woo~~Beep~woo~~

After receiving Ran Mouri's emergency call, Inspector Megure quickly arrived at the coffee shop with his officers.

After the forensic officers finished taking photos and collecting evidence, Inspector Megure allowed them to remove the victim's body and inspect the toilet stall.

The innermost toilet stall has a window, and outside the window is a deserted alley.

Based on the situation at the scene, Inspector Megure quickly concluded that the murder was most likely a robbery-murder case.

If Inspector Megure is not mistaken, it seems that a thief initially broke in through the toilet window, intending to steal the victim's money, but was accidentally discovered by the victim.

Fearing his identity would be exposed, the thief strangled the victim, then stabbed her in the heart before escaping through an alley behind the toilet window.

“No! Inspector Megure, there’s a problem with your reasoning.” Just as Inspector Megure was about to send Inspector Takagi and the others to search for clues in the alley, Suzuki Haruaki suddenly reached out and tugged at his sleeve.

Inspector Megure wasn't angry at Suzuki Haruaki's words. Instead, he bent down and asked, "Haruaki, have you discovered something?"

Although Suzuki Haruaki was just an elementary school student, Inspector Megure wouldn't treat him like an ordinary student because of his previous experiences helping the police solve cases.

"Inspector Megure, don't you think that windowsill is too clean? If the murderer really escaped from there, there should be some footprints or bloodstains left on the windowsill, right?"

"Hmm... that is indeed a bit strange. Judging from the range of the bloodstains sprayed by the victim, the murderer should also have been covered in a lot of blood."

Upon hearing this, Inspector Megure quickly realized something was amiss and thoughtfully remarked, "If the money in the wallet was deliberately taken by the murderer to mislead the police, then he is very likely a customer of this coffee shop."

Chapter 52 Don't take too big a step

Inspector Megure glanced at the onlookers, then turned to Inspector Takagi and instructed, "Takagi, go and investigate which customers entered the restroom after the victim."

"Yes!"

"No need for that, I already know who the murderer is." Suzuki Seimei reached out to stop Inspector Takagi, then pointed at Tonoyama Juuzou and said, "The murderer is you!"

"What?! Little brother, don't talk nonsense. How could I possibly be the murderer?"

Faced with the suspicious looks from everyone, Tonoyama Juzo's expression changed slightly, and he said to Inspector Megure with a wronged look on his face, "You can't believe a child's nonsense. Police officers have to rely on evidence to solve cases!"

Inspector Megure leaned down and asked, "Seimei, do you have any evidence?"

"Of course I have evidence, sir. The bandage on your finger looks a little different from how it was wrapped before."

Looking at Tonoyama Juzo's suddenly changed expression, Suzuki Seimei said in a mocking tone, "If I'm not mistaken, you probably first strangled that older sister with bandages, then stabbed her in the heart with a dagger, threw her body into the cubicle through the gap above, and finally just pulled the dagger out with the bandages to create the murder scene we just witnessed."

(ΩДΩ)

Seeing that Tonoyama Juzo's face had turned pale, Inspector Megure pressed on, "Sir, may we examine the bandage on your hand? If it is indeed as Seimei deduced, this bandage should be stained with the victim's blood."

"You wretched brats, get out of my way!"

Of course, Tonoyama Juzo didn't dare let the police inspect his bandages. In his panic, he pushed aside the onlookers and ran towards the toilet entrance.

"Be careful……"

"boom!!!"

Just as Eri Kisaki, who was standing at the toilet door, was about to be knocked away by the burly Tonoyama Juzo, she suddenly dodged Tonoyama Juzo's large hand by turning to the side, then grabbed his arm and threw him to the ground with a beautiful over-the-shoulder throw.

Seeing the bewildered expression on Tonoyama Juzo's face, Inspector Megure shook his head speechlessly and said, "I already told you to be careful."

Although Eri Kisaki is the weakest in terms of fighting ability among the three members of the Mori family, she is still more than capable of taking down several adult men. For Tonoyama Juzo to dare to attack her is simply courting death.

After being handcuffed, Tonoyama Juzo, knowing he could not escape legal punishment, quickly confessed to his crimes and explained the cause and effect of the matter.

It turns out that the victim was Tonoyama Juzo's mistress, but recently she has been pressuring Tonoyama Juzo to divorce his wife and marry her.

Dianshan Shisan didn't want a divorce at all. He was forced into a corner by her, which is why he did such a foolish thing as murder.

"Seimei, you were really amazing just now! You were like a real little detective."
