Conan: I'm Really Not Tokyo Ghost Story

If I had to give an example, it might be that someone insulted you on the street, and you retaliated by stabbing them to death—it would definitely feel satisfying to see that.

However, it's definitely not legal to bring it up in the first place.

Despite the fact that the law is in the hands of people like Gin.

Equivalent to nothing.

However, the rules governing these organizations are largely the same.

Therefore, Chianti and Vodka find it difficult to understand Gin's thinking.

However, even when Gin spoke, even though his words were very biased.

Sano's answer remained the same.

"I don't have the antidote."

Gin's face darkened. He had already said that, yet he still wouldn't give him face?

"rye!"

Sano sighed impatiently, "I'm not lying to you, this is something I developed myself. Whether there's an antidote or not, no one else knows."

"How could I not know myself?"

...It was poison he developed himself?

After a moment of stunned silence, the onlookers' expressions became even more horrified.

The current situation.

It's like a scientist who's very knowledgeable in the field suddenly shouting excitedly that he's made the most delicious food in the world.

The point is not whether the food is delicious or not.

The real question is whether that thing is actually edible!

Chianti patted Vermouth's shoulder, who was staring blankly at him, and sighed deeply.

Please accept my condolences.

"...You bastard."

Gin also took a deep breath, and for a moment he felt a dull ache in his temples.

"Why did he suddenly start researching poisons again?"

"I had a few days off and was bored at home, so I happened to discover that poison is actually quite useful, so I decided to expand my abilities."

Sano shrugged and said.

...I accidentally discovered that poison is actually quite effective?

A thoughtful look appeared in Gin's eyes.

This guy probably encountered another case, and the murderer killed someone with poison.

From initially imitating white hair to using bombs and wearing sunglasses while sniping, and now poisoning, according to what Chianti said last time, this guy seems to have even figured out some tricks in arson.

It's probably an imitation of some arsonist.

He's a habitual copycat.

But this guy just keeps imitating.

They can actually imitate some really strange things.

...Or, we could have Vodka use the computer more often in front of Sano.

Showcase your hacking skills.

Let's see if we can get Sano to imitate something too.

If it really is possible.

Perhaps we could consider letting Sano also develop in the direction of scientific research.

How to become a super all-rounder?

Gin snapped out of his thoughts, because none of that mattered for the time being.

The important thing is that Gin doesn't think Sano is imitating what he's doing.

It would be useless garbage.

Therefore, this poison is probably not simple.

Sano's mastery of poisons is by no means that of a novice.

Are you sure this thing won't be fatal?

Gin asked the most crucial question.

"Hmm, the amount is very small, and it's all concentrated in the outer layer of the skin on her face. If she could die from this, then she wouldn't need to care about her face anymore."

Sano said this.

Focused on the face?

Gin glanced at Vermouth's face. Sano had only touched the back of her neck, so how did he manage to apply the poison to her face?

They're definitely got something special.

Gin narrowed his eyes: "Is her face really beyond saving?"

"Yeah, it's hopeless."

Sano shook the cup listlessly: "We can only obediently wait half a month for my face to recover on its own."

"...Can it be restored?"

Gin asked in surprise,

"Nonsense, didn't I just say it? It will only take half a month to recover."

Gin was slightly speechless: "Then why did you just say you wanted her to get a new face?"

"We need to change our appearance for now."

Sano rested his chin on his hand and looked at Vermouth, unable to help but laugh: "Otherwise, going out with that face would probably scare the kids."

...So that's what it meant.

Gin looked at Vermouth, thinking that this woman might still doubt Sano's words.

But I never expected it.

This guy has completely withdrawn and turned gray.

They were completely unaware of the conversation between Sano and Gin.

...Never mind, it's good to let this guy calm down first.

"Dudu-"

Suddenly, Gin's phone vibrated twice.

After taking it out and glancing at it, Gin's expression suddenly changed.

Looking at Sano opposite him and Vermouth beside him, Gin pondered for two seconds.

"You guys have fun, I have some things to take care of here, vodka."

"Big brother's here!"

The Gin duo left the cocktail bar first.

Sano watched Gin's retreating figure and rubbed his fingers together.

On the other side, Chianti nudged Calvados and whispered, "Hey, didn't you really like Vermouth? Rye poisoned her just now, and you didn't react at all, especially since it was her face. Are you afraid of Rye and didn't dare to stand up for her, or do you think that since Vermouth's face is already ruined, there's no need to waste any more time?"

Calvados glanced at Chianti, then at Sano and Vermouth, downed his drink in one gulp, and made no response.

"cut."

Chianti, slightly annoyed at not getting any inside information, pursed her lips.

……

"senior!"

That evening, when Sano returned home from the cocktail bar, Ran Mouri was still there.

"what happened?"

Sano stopped in his tracks.

"Have you heard of the Twin Towers in Nishitama City, senior?"

"The Twin Towers in Nishitama City?"

Sano stroked his chin: "I don't remember... but Nishitama, that sounds familiar?"

"Ah, senpai, you mean the case involving Teiji Moriya from before, right?"

Ran Mouri began her explanation: "The Twin Towers are the tallest twin towers in Japan, and they're also said to be the place closest to heaven."

"……so what?"

"That's right, the owner of these twin towers is actually my father's junior from university. She invited my father to visit them tomorrow."

Ran Mouri laid the groundwork and became serious: "So I want to keep an eye on him to prevent this guy from getting any funny ideas, or that woman from having any funny ideas about my dad. Senior, your observation skills are so sharp, come with me."

"Um……"

Sano thought about it. His vacation wasn't officially over yet, and he had indeed been too idle at home. Besides... judging from Ran Mouri's description...

There's a hint of a criminal case in this.

"Is it just the three of us?"

Sano asked.

"No, there's also Sonoko. I was thinking that if I didn't leave before you went home, I would invite you to come along. But if I leave first..."
