Detective Conan: Birth of the Demon Child

With the help of his Eye Concealment skill, Suzuki Seimei could clearly see the various auras remaining in the room.

Aside from the scent of Fujieda Mikio, the only other scent remaining in the room was that of Ueki Kusahachi.

Furthermore, Suzuki Seimei could clearly see the footprints and scent left by Ueki Kusahachi outside the window.

Furthermore, the warmth emanating from Ueki Kusahachi's right ankle far surpassed that of other parts of his body, which allowed Suzuki Seimei to quickly guess his modus operandi.

If Suzuki Seimei is not mistaken, the action of Fujieda Mikio raising his hands in the surveillance video was not because he was being held at gunpoint, but simply because he was stretching.

The reason why everyone thought that Fujieda Mikio had been kidnapped at gunpoint was mainly because Ueki Souhachi suddenly spoke up and misled them.

The reason why Fujieda Mikio suddenly collapsed was probably because Ueki Souhachi added a drug that could lower blood sugar to his coffee.

Judging from the surveillance video, the scene of Fujieda Mikio suddenly standing up and stretching, and then falling to the ground, does indeed look like he was shot.

While everyone was rushing to the audiovisual room, Ueki Kusahachi secretly ran to the window of the audiovisual room and fired three shots at Fujieda Mikio's back with his pistol, killing him.

As for why Suzuki Seimei and the others only heard two gunshots outside the door, the explanation is quite simple.

Ueki Kusahachi must have first installed a silencer on his pistol, fired a shot at Ueki Kusahachi, then removed the silencer and fired two more shots at his back.

If Suzuki Seimei was not mistaken, the silencer of the pistol was hidden in Ueki Kusahachi's trouser leg, which is why the temperature and aura of his ankle area were higher than other parts of his body.

Even without the ability to hide his eyes, Suzuki Seimei wouldn't have found it difficult to crack Ueki Kusahachi's methods.

Because a lot of crucial evidence was left at the scene, such as glass shards scattered inside the audiovisual room, the bullet trajectory of the gunshot wound on Fujieda Mikio's back, and the video from the monitoring room.

By simply replaying the surveillance video from when the incident occurred, it is very clear that Fujieda Mikio only sustained the three gunshot wounds on his back after he fell to the ground.

In other words, the murderer was outside the window from the beginning, so the murderer's method and identity are easy to confirm.

With the help of his ability to see through the murderer's methods and identity in an instant, Suzuki Seimei inevitably felt a little bored.

It's like watching a TV series and already knowing the ending just from watching the preview for the first episode.

A life of extraordinary success is just so boring and dull.

"what?"

Just as Suzuki Seimei was feeling a bit bored, Conan, who had been scanning the audiovisual room, quickly noticed the unnaturally scattered shards of glass next to the window and revealed a thoughtful expression.

If the murderer was indeed hiding in the audiovisual room at the beginning, then when he broke the window to escape, the shards of glass should have fallen outside the window.

However, the glass panes next to the window were scattered inside the audiovisual room, meaning the murderer may have been outside from the beginning.

If the murderer was outside from the beginning, how could I have assumed that the murderer was hiding in the audiovisual room?

I was misled!

So you were the murderer!

Conan carefully recalled the scene that had just occurred in the monitoring room, and quickly focused his attention on Ueki Kusahachi.

Drip drip drip drip

Inspector Megure, who received the emergency call, quickly arrived with Inspector Takagi and his team.

Since Kogoro Mouri wasn't there, Conan had Yukiko sing a double sung song with him, and using Yukiko's voice, he deduced the details of Kusahachi Ueki's crime.

"That's right! I am the murderer."

Just as Inspector Megure was about to have Inspector Takagi search Kusahachi Ueki, he suddenly squatted down and took out the silencer that was stuck in his sock.

Ueki Kusahachi had used the excuse of getting the key to shoot Fujieda Mikio while everyone was rushing to the audiovisual room, so he didn't have time to deal with the silencer and could only hide it in his sock.

"You killed Gan Xiong!"

Upon learning that Ueki Kusahachi was the murderer, Fujieda Soka felt a pang of disappointment, but outwardly she feigned grief and cried out, "Why did you kill Mikio? Why?!"

Chapter 576 Conan's mother is a celebrity

In fact, Fujieda Suka would prefer that Fujieda Shigeru was the murderer, so that no one would compete with her for the family fortune.

Faced with Fujieda Soka's questioning, Ueki Sohachi sighed and said, "I have been the butler of the Fujieda family for fifty years. I have watched the young lady and the young master grow up."

Ever since Fujieda Mikio married into the Fujieda family, he has been constantly annexing and encroaching on the Fujieda family's property.

If it were just about seizing property, that would be one thing! But I cannot tolerate him marrying a new wife less than six months after Miss's death.

Moreover, this bastard even forced the young master to pay rent after the young lady died, even though this was clearly the young master's own home.

I'm getting old, and my health is declining day by day. I can't imagine what he'll do to this family in the future, so I have to kill him!

"Butler Ueki..."

Upon hearing what Ueki Kusahachi said, Fujieda Shigeru couldn't help but show an expression of being moved and ashamed.

If it weren't for Fujieda Shigeru's insistence on not inheriting the Fujieda family's property and instead choosing to become a writer, his sister wouldn't have allowed Fujieda Mikio to marry into the Fujieda family, resulting in the Fujieda family being usurped.

Even the elderly butler, Ueki Kusahachi, wouldn't commit murder simply because he couldn't stand Fujieda Mikio's evil deeds.

With the case solved, Butler Ueki was also arrested by Inspector Megure and his team.

Meanwhile, Eri Kisaki took the opportunity to demand the remaining 9.5 million yen in commission fees from Fujieda Soka, who was pretending to cry.

Although Fujieda Mikio was still killed, the contract that Fujieda Soka signed with Mouri Kogoro was not to protect his safety, but to find the culprit behind the intimidation incident.

Therefore, even if Fujieda Motoka wanted to renege on her debt to Eri Kisaki, she couldn't, and had to use her own savings to pay the remaining commission.

However, according to Eri Kisaki, Fujieda Motoka's idea of ​​inheriting the estate ultimately failed.

Because Fujieda Mikio had already left a will, and the contents of his will were roughly as follows: "If I die in an accident, I will donate all my property to the country. Those fools who can't even protect my life are not qualified to inherit my estate."

It was obvious that Fujieda Mikio also knew that Fujieda Soka was only after his money, which was why she married him.

The thought that after his death, Fujieda Motoka would inherit all his property and then have affairs with other men made Fujieda Mikio feel like he was being cuckolded, so he didn't plan to leave her a single penny.

Upon learning the contents of Fujieda Mikio's will, Suzuki Seimei and the others couldn't help but chuckle; it truly suited his despicable and shameless character.

……

next morning

"Zizzizi..."

Ryuichi Inoue drove the van, carrying Seimei Suzuki and his entourage, and slowly stopped in front of the Tokyo Phenomenon Institute.

After parking the van, Inoue Ryuichi said to Yukiko, who was sitting in the passenger seat, "Ms. Yukiko, we've arrived."

"Mr. Ryuichi, thank you so much for your help~"

Although Yukiko returned to replace Yusaku Kudo to solve the Fujieda family's intimidation case, she had another purpose: to come back and spend a few days with Conan.

After all, Yukiko thought Conan looked incredibly cute when he shrunk, making her, as his mother, feel much younger.

To express her gratitude to the Detective Boys for taking care of Conan, Yukiko decided to take them to the Tokyo Metropolitan Museum of Art to watch the latest Kamen Rider movie, which had not yet been released in theaters.

Yukiko originally planned to rent a car and take Suzuki Seimei and the others to the Tokyo Metropolitan Museum of Art, but Suzuki Seimei refused.

Anyway, even if Yukiko rents another car, Inoue Ryuichi and Kurosaki Tamaka will still go with them.

Rather than letting Yukiko waste money renting another car, the group might as well take Suzuki Seimei's van to the Tokyo Metropolitan Area.

Moreover, Yukiko can use the money she saved on car rental to treat everyone to a big meal after the movie ends.

Suzuki Haruaki's suggestion was clearly more cost-effective, so it was unanimously approved by the children.

"You are welcome!"

Ryuichi Inoue first waved his hand with a smile, then took out an autograph book and a black pen, and handed them to Yukiko, saying, "If it's alright, could you sign this for me? To be honest, my wife is actually a fan of yours."

"Of course, it would be my honor!"

Upon hearing Ryuichi Inoue's words, Yukiko immediately broke into a bright smile, took the autograph book, and signed her name.

For a retired actress like Yukiko, the happiest thing must be being chased by her fans for autographs.

"Fan?"

Upon hearing this, Ayumi couldn't help but ask, "Was Conan's mother a celebrity before?"

"I've told you so many times, she's not my mother, she's a relative's aunt..."

"Whoosh!!!"

Conan was speaking when he suddenly felt a chill creep up his spine from behind. He instinctively turned around and saw Yukiko staring at him with an incredibly "kind" look.

This unfilial son not only disowns his mother, but he also dares to call her "Auntie"! This is truly intolerable!

"Uh……"

Faced with Yukiko's threatening gaze, Conan could only suppress his conscience and awkwardly change his tune, saying, "She's my older cousin~"

Seeing Conan's pitiful appearance, Suzuki Seimei revealed a somewhat gloating smile.

Back when Suzuki Seimei was forced by Yukiko to call her "older sister," Kudo Shinichi was quite gleeful about it. Now it's finally his turn!

Seeing Conan back down, Yukiko smiled at Ayumi and the others, saying, "If I'm not mistaken, your parents might be my fans~"

"really?"

"Wow, that's awesome!"

"Hahaha……"

Seeing Yukiko's somewhat smug expression, Ai Haibara glanced at Conan's helpless face and thought to herself, "So that's how it is. This guy's deductive reasoning ability comes from his father, while his love for showing off and adventurous spirit comes from his mother?"

"Alright, let's hurry up and go!"

Led by Yukiko, the six children followed her into the Tokyo Metropolitan Area.

"Ms. Yukiko, it's been a long time! You're still the same, very beautiful!"

As soon as the group entered the lobby of the East City Phenomenon Institute, a middle-aged man in a work uniform greeted them with a smile.

"Yes! Of course."

Upon seeing an old acquaintance, Yukiko couldn't help but smile and say, "Mr. Karata is still the same as ever, he hasn't changed at all, and he's still as energetic as before."
