Conan: The Romantic Daily Life of a Ghost Detective

In other words, the murderer killed randomly.

This type of killer is the most troublesome because even the killer himself doesn't know who his next target will be, and there's no way to deduce his identity through logic.

In most random murder cases, the perpetrators are eventually found through extensive investigations and by investing a great deal of time and manpower.

But right now, trapped in the villa and unable to contact the outside world, what they lack most is time.

Everyone in the living room sat on the sofa with furrowed brows.

But somewhere unnoticed by everyone, a sinister smile appeared on Ryu's cowardly face for the first time.

The most dangerous part is over.

With Rokuta Shoji's testimony, everyone now believes that the murderer killed randomly.

Just now, after investigating the bathroom, Takashi and the other Mori detectives moved Yotsui Reika to the bathtub and turned on the shower.

If nothing unexpected happens, the water will reach her nose in a few hours, and then Yoshii Reika will be killed.

He will then be in the living room with other people, providing a perfect alibi.

It seems that this famous detective Kogoro Mouri is nothing but a figurehead. No, it should be said that his plan was too perfect, and even the famous detective Kogoro Mouri could not see through it.

Yi Zhilong's face regained its timid and uneasy expression, but in his heart he could no longer contain his excitement and exhilaration.

What happened next went pretty much as Yizhilong had predicted.

Because Rokuda Shoji was attacked and nearly killed, no one dared to stay in their rooms alone. So they all gathered in the living room, intending to wait until dawn, and even going to the toilet in groups of at least three.

To avoid falling asleep and giving the murderer an opportunity, the group split into two groups and started playing cards. As usual, Xiaolan was lucky and got a note stuck to her face with warm water.

Just as dawn was breaking, Ichiro took the opportunity of going to the toilet to move Yotsuhisa Reika's body out of the bathtub.

When Conan and Kogoro Mouri went to the bathroom for the second time, they found the bathroom door open.

Then they discovered that Yotsuki Reika had drowned in the bathtub.

Then, everyone arrived at the scene and looked at Yotsuki Reika's body with grim expressions.

However, just as Ichiro was about to unleash his acting prowess once again...

Wen Shui, who had lost all night playing poker and was exhausted, immediately pointed the finger at him: "The murderer is Mr. Long Yizhi."

"Huh? I...I was with you guys the whole time," Ichiro said in shock.

The old man next to him chimed in, "Yeah, kid, stop causing trouble, okay?"

Wen Shui, too lazy to waste words, simply recounted Long's murder methods.

Everyone stared in disbelief.

Ryuichi knelt before the corpse in the bathroom, repeatedly muttering the name of his girlfriend, Yaeko.

.

After daybreak, the rain outside stopped.

Detectives from the Metropolitan Police Department and the chairman of the Yotsubi Group arrived at the scene at the same time.

The police officer in charge of the investigation from the Metropolitan Police Department, Wen Shui, did not recognize him, but the other party did know him and Kogoro Mouri, and even asked for his autograph during the investigation.

Chairman Yotsuki held his daughter's body and wept bitterly. In addition to threatening to make Ichiro pay with his life, he also vented his anger on the other people who had stayed at the villa with Yotsuki Reika the night before.

Of course, due to Sonoko Suzuki's involvement, this does not include people like Nukumizu.

Even Chairman Yoshii took the time to come and comfort Sonoko Suzuki, and also thanked Nukumizu.

After all, he was an entrepreneur capable of building a large conglomerate. Even in a fit of rage, he would still maintain a sliver of rationality, knowing the consequences of antagonizing the Suzuki Group.

Although Vermouth, disguised as Rokuda Shoji, was severely reprimanded, Nuwa knew she would soon shed this identity.

Although Uncle Mori has sobered up, he barely slept last night, and driving while fatigued is very dangerous.

So they asked the Metropolitan Police Department to send them back to Beika Town in a car.

As they parted, Rokuta Masashi caught up with them: "I'm so sorry, I startled everyone last night."

Sonoko Suzuki shook her head: "It's alright, and Uncle Yoshii already came to inquire about things."

Rokuta Masashi looked at Nuku and said seriously, "Mr. Nuku, I really owe you a lot last night. If you hadn't found me in time, I'd probably be in an ambulance and being taken to the morgue by now. Please give me a chance to thank you."

Wen Shui knew there was a hidden meaning in Vermouth's words, and smiled:

"No need for thanks. If Mr. Rokuta needs any investigation in the future, you can come to me for help."

"Of course," said Rokuta Masashi. "But I still have to express my gratitude. I just had a friend prepare a gift for me, and it has already been sent out. Please don't refuse, Numizu-kun."

Wen Shui was stunned for a moment.

What the hell?

Could it be true, as Ai Haibara suspected, that Vermouth wanted to win him over?

But he had already promised Ai Haibara.

But I wonder what gift Vermouth will give him as a token of her gratitude?

Eliminating the organization's surveillance of him would be a good thing for Wen Shui. If Vermouth gave him money, he would split it equally with Ai Haibara. Wen Shui made up his mind.

After getting on the bus, Xiaolan and Yuanzi quickly fell asleep in each other's arms.

Conan, on the other hand, was deep in thought, his brow furrowed, occasionally stealing glances at Wen Shui sitting in the back row. He was probably reviewing the case from the previous night.

Wen Shui was actually a little sleepy, but he decided to draw the prize first to see what skill he could get this time, and then take a nap.

Before he could even close his eyes, his phone rang. He took it out and saw that it was a photo sent to him by Ai Haibara.

The background of the photo is a room in the Yotsuji family villa.

Vermouth covered her soft chest with her pale arm, a defiant expression on her face. Behind her was Wen Shui, facing the door.

Wen Shui was shocked. When did this guy take the picture?

Could this be the gift Vermouth was talking about?

Just as I was thinking this, Ai Haibara sent a lonely emoji of a kitten carrying its luggage away.

"Didn't you say you went to a banquet with Sonoko yesterday?" Her aggrieved tone was a little heartbreaking.

Chapter 78 Ai's Obedience Test

Wen Shui looked at Ai Haibara's question on her phone screen.

I immediately wanted to send her the photo of him pinning Vermouth in the fish tank.

However, after clicking on the photo, Wen Shui's fingertip hovered over the send button for a few seconds before moving to the cross next to it.

He chose to abandon the attempt to send it.

Wen Shui suddenly realized that sending the photos now would indeed clarify his position.

But then we wouldn't be able to see Ai Haibara's surprised expression.

To be honest, because Ai Haibara is usually calm and collected, she has her own judgment on everything, as if nothing can surprise her. Because of this personality, she is even nicknamed "Ice Witch".

Wen Shui really wanted to see Ai Haibara speechless with shock.

Such opportunities are actually quite rare for warm water.

Vermouth is perhaps one of Ai Haibara's few weaknesses. Gin could also be considered one, but Gin is too strong, and Ai Haibara can't beat him yet.

Thinking of this, Wen Shui directly told Ai Haibara that he only got involved with Vermouth last night to solve the case, and that he had something very important to show her, so he asked Ai Haibara to come back and talk about it.

Ai Haibara also seemed to have some doubts about Vermouth's attempts to sow discord.

Her tone softened slightly, and she said she had something to do at noon, so she would meet Wen Shui at Mihua Shopping Street in the afternoon.

Wen Shui looked at the information on her phone screen. In the past, the two of them would usually meet at home or in a secluded corner of a coffee shop.

This time, they actually moved directly to the street corner of the Mihana Shopping Street.

It seems she was somewhat influenced by Vermouth's counter-espionage scheme.

But you don't trust me at all, do you? Wen Shui couldn't help but grumble to herself.

He now longs to see Ai Haibara, after learning the truth, rush into his arms with a face full of remorse and apologize...

Wait a minute, isn't that the kind of reaction only Ran would make?

Even if Ai Haibara felt guilty, she would never do something like rushing into his arms to apologize. However, Wen Shui might consider trying to rush into his arms.

After all, it's been a while since I last held hands with Usagi-chan.

I really miss the amazing elasticity of that jelly-like softness.

I wonder if Xiaolan has caught up with her lately, since Xiaolan has been drinking papaya milk a lot these days.

However, on the other hand, he could also use this opportunity to increase Ai Haibara's trust in him and make their cooperation even closer.

After all, they are currently plotting against the Black Organization, and if they cannot fully trust each other, something bad will happen sooner or later.

Perhaps Vermouth saw this as an opportunity, which is why she chose to sow discord in this way.

It's very direct, but the effect is also very obvious.

Pulling himself out of his thoughts, Wen Shui realized that Conan was no longer secretly observing him. He had probably finished reviewing the situation and knew where he had gone wrong last night.

Judging from Conan's eager look, he probably wants to get revenge next time something happens.

The police officers who took them back deliberately drove very slowly and steadily, so that they could not feel any bumps while sitting in the car.

In this quiet and warm environment, Ran and Sonoko cuddled together and fell fast asleep, while Uncle Mori also dozed off.

Wen Shui slowly closed her eyes and began to examine the findings of this case investigation.

Wen Shui's skills did not show any significant level improvement this time. It seems that the higher the level of these skills, the more dangerous the cases will be, which will also put Wen Shui in relatively dangerous situations.

If he weren't so eager to gain the ability to fight the Black Organization, he could have considered using a quantity-based approach, constantly completing cases from the original story to level up.

In that case, knowing the original plot would help avoid some dangers.

Unfortunately, Wen Shui urgently needs to improve his combat effectiveness, so sometimes he has to take some risks.

However, Wen Shui was somewhat satisfied with the result of this lottery, as she did not expect to draw Vermouth's ability.
