Conan: The Romantic Daily Life of a Ghost Detective

Mrs. Uemori, who was attacked by unidentified assailants, passed away shortly after being taken to the hospital.

Those remaining at the scene are all students suspected of murder, as well as Michiko Uemori's family and students.

Takagi Wataru led Miwako directly to a handsome man with short, dark blond hair and chocolate-colored skin: "Officer Sato, this is Mr. Amuro, one of Mrs. Uemori's students."

Sato Miwako recited her prepared statement: "I'm sorry, the suspect cannot prove his innocence, but don't worry, we will find the murderer as soon as possible."

Amuro Tooru's expression was slightly displeased: "But judging from your expressions, it seems like you haven't come up with a solution yet. Are you planning to close the case with suicide again?"

Amuro's words were barbed; he already harbored little affection for the Metropolitan Police Department's group of paycheck thieves.

Not to mention, so much time has passed since then, and this group of people haven't found a single useful clue.

How can such people protect this country?

Miwako's expression clearly showed displeasure after hearing Amuro Tooru's words.

However, she had encountered this kind of thing quite often, and explained with a smile: "How could that be? This is definitely a case of intentional homicide, it's just that we haven't found out how the murderer committed the crime yet."

However, I've already contacted a very capable person, and I expect to have a result within half an hour.

Half an hour?

Amuro Tooru looked completely incredulous.

However, he cannot reveal his identity now, and since the other party does not agree to his request, he has no choice but to give up.

Honestly, if I'm late, I'll get another scolding from the manager. If I didn't want to reveal my identity, Amuro Tooru would really like to hang that strict manager on the ceiling of the movie theater. Amuro Tooru snorted and walked away.

After dealing with this troublesome suspect, Sato Miwako...

Looking at Ayako Suzuki and her female friend among the students, they didn't seem impatient at all; in fact, they were excitedly discussing what had happened.

The reason why Sato Miwako called for warm water was actually related to Suzuki Ayako and the young lady whose identity was unknown to her.

Although the two young ladies were very cooperative with the police investigation.

But one is the heiress of the Suzuki Group, and the other, though of average appearance, is definitely from a prestigious family in terms of temperament.

These young ladies would rarely encounter such a murder case, except for Sonoko Suzuki.

If today's murder were to be discussed by them, it could potentially damage the reputation of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, making its already difficult situation even more challenging.

If there is warm water present, the probability of this happening will be greatly reduced.

Even if Wen Shui doesn't find the truth of the case in the end, he can still help pass on a message to keep the two young ladies from keeping tonight's events a secret.

After noticing Sato Miwako's gaze, Suzuki Ayako approached and asked, "Ms. Sato, is there any progress in the case?"

Miwako Sato shook her head: "Not yet."

"I see."

“But I’ve already called Wenshui over, and I believe we’ll find the culprit soon,” Miwako said with a smile.

Ayako Suzuki's squinty eyes widened considerably, and she exclaimed in surprise, "Huh, Wen Shui-kun is coming?"

"Hmm, they should be here soon." After saying that, Miwako was called away by her subordinate.

Ayako Suzuki narrowed her eyes and smiled as she looked towards the doorway.

Last time I invited Onami to my house for dinner, Sonoko kept saying that Onami didn't have time. Now that we've run into each other, I'll ask him again when he'll be available.

My mom asked her about this yesterday.

.

After looking at the photos, Wenshui took a taxi to Beihu Town.

Of course, he was not attracted by Officer Sato's physique, but by the murder case and wanted to make progress in gathering information.

Maybe I can even get a late-night snack for free.

The promised improvement in treatment with Vermouth was never mentioned again because of Akemi Miyano's situation, so Nuwa still has to live a frugal life.

Less than half an hour later, the driver parked the car in front of the Shangsen family's house.

After explaining his purpose to the police officers at the door, Wen Shui entered the crime scene, which was cordoned off with police tape. As soon as he entered the house, he saw an unexpected person.

What's Bourbon doing here? Is there some kind of part-time job here?

Warm water stared at Amuro Tooru, completely bewildered.

Amuro Tooru also looked somewhat surprised and walked over to greet him: "Mr. Nukumizu, it's been a long time. I didn't expect to meet you again in this kind of setting."

"Mr. Amuro, what are you doing here?" Wen Shui asked in confusion.

"I came here to learn French cuisine, but unfortunately, I encountered a murder after only two days of classes," Amuro Tooru said with a wry smile.

Wen Shui was a hundred percent skeptical.

He guessed that Amuro Tooru was there either to make contact with someone who was studying there, or because he needed to use his identity as Yoshitomo Kamimori's apprentice for some mission.

After exchanging a few simple pleasantries with Amuro Tooru, Wenshui was pulled away by Sato Miwako to investigate the case.

Amuro Tooru watched as Numi carefully read the investigation report, and a look of surprise couldn't help but show in his eyes.

He didn't expect that the helper Sato Miwako mentioned was Numizu Kazuki.

Has the Metropolitan Police Department already won over Wenshui?

That won't do. In Amuro Tooru's eyes, Wen Shui is a stock with unlimited potential. If he's dragged away by those salary thieves, his talent will be buried.

Amuro Tooru had been hesitating for the past few days about whether or not to have a talk with Nuwa.

Because of Sherry's sudden death, Nuwa and Itsuki seem to have become targets that the Public Security Bureau can recruit. After all, no matter how much Nuwa and Sherry try to hide it, Amuro Tooru can tell that the two have a close relationship.

Sherry's death will definitely leave Wen Shui with resentment.

With a little guidance, he can become a loyal comrade-in-arms and fight against the Black Organization together.

Perhaps we should wait until the case is over and then find an opportunity to ask him about it.

However, the presence of warm water at least allows him to catch up with his part-time job as a ticket collector at the movie theater later, Amuro Tooru thought to himself.

.

Since the body was not at the scene, Wen Shui carefully read the examination report and the autopsy certificate from the hospital.

Then I walked around the site again, mainly checking the circuit breaker where the power was out.

Back in the living room, Wen Shui pointed directly at a handsome man: "The murderer is Mr. Nishitani Hiroaki!"

"Eh"

Everyone present was stunned, and then they all looked at Hiroaki Nishitani, a French cuisine chef and student of the deceased, Yoshitomo Uemori.

Hiroaki Nishitani was also surprised, thinking to himself, "Is this kid just guessing randomly?"

"You're talking nonsense! How could I possibly kill my teacher? She's like my own mother to me!" Hiroaki Nishitani retorted angrily.

“That doesn’t make sense. The confession says the deceased often provided you with financial assistance, and that kind of relationship is very common in homicide cases,” Wen Shui said. “Besides, I found a contact lens case in the yard outside the restroom, and it had your fingerprints on it…”

Warm water quickly brought Nishitani Hiroaki to his knees, his face filled with remorse, and he wept bitterly.

"It's all that woman's fault, that greedy woman..."

Police officers from the Metropolitan Police Department walked over, handcuffed Hiroaki Nishitani, and put him in a police car.

.

While Sato Miwako and her team conducted further investigation and evidence collection at the scene.

Wen Shui came to the yard to get some fresh air, and then found Amuro Tooru standing next to a small tree in the yard, looking up at the stars in the sky.

“Mr. Wen Shui, you’ve really opened my eyes again this time.” Amuro Tooru took the initiative to walk over and talk to Wen Shui after seeing him.

"It was just good luck that I happened to find the murderer's glasses case, which led me to his method of committing the crime."

Wen Shui smiled and scratched his head.

"By the way, I have a request here. I wonder if Mr. Wen Shui would be interested?" Amuro Tooru asked mysteriously.

Wen Shui: "A commission? What type specifically?"

"Let's go outside and talk."

Amuro Tooru brought warm water to the street lamp opposite Mrs. Uemori's house.

"What on earth is going on that's so mysterious?" Wen Shui couldn't help but ask curiously.

Amuro Tooru glanced around to make sure no one was nearby, then his gentle demeanor vanished, replaced by the bourbon-like expression he wore while on a mission.

"Actually, I'm also a member of the organization that you owe a lot of money to, and my rank is no lower than Sherry's."

Wen Shui's face showed a shocked expression, and she couldn't say a word for a long time.

Amuro Tooru was very satisfied with the reaction of the warm water.

His sudden change of attitude was to surprise Wen Shui and create an unfathomable image in her mind, making it easier for him to win her over and assimilate her later.

However, Amuro Tooru does not plan to reveal his true identity to Nuku for the time being.

He planned to start by gradually turning Wen Shui into a subordinate of the Black Organization, and then slowly infiltrate her to become an ally.

Wen Shui was silent for a moment, then smiled wryly and said, "I'm sorry, I already have a new superior."

Amuro Tooru smiled and said, "Didn't I say that I'm on the same level as Sherry? As long as you're willing to follow me, you don't need to worry about this kind of problem at all."

Amuro Tooru did not believe that after Sherry's death, the Black Organization would still assign members with alcohol names to oversee Warm Water and Tree.

He knows the organization's situation best; they are already severely understaffed.

It's highly likely that things will return to the way they were before, under the surveillance of Gin's subordinates and those peripheral members. With just a word from him, he could take back control of Warm Water.

Wen Shui didn't say anything, but instead took out her phone from her pocket, found a number in her contacts, and dialed it.

Soon, a lazy voice came through the phone: "Why are you calling so late? You're preventing me from getting my beauty sleep. I'll deduct 5."

Wen Shui: "Someone wants to take me away as their subordinate. What's your opinion?"

"Who?" Vermouth's tone carried a hint of coldness.

Wen Shui handed the phone to Amuro Tooru, who confidently took it and said coldly, "This is Bourbon. Tell your superior I want this man..."
