Conan: What's wrong with my Yan Shuangying's painting style?

Bai Ma Tan didn't seem to intend to argue, and simply accepted the victory or loss.

He looked at Asai Narimi, waiting for Asai Narimi's answer.

However, the person who answered him was not Asai Narumi, but a neutral voice.

"I say, why are you guys holding on to this?"

Nanatsuki Koshimizu, who had disappeared before, reappeared beside the two of them.

The famous high school girl detective, who was determined by Hakuba Detective to be working with Yan Shuangying, said this with certainty.

"Come with me. He's willing to meet you. That way you won't have nothing to do and keep pestering him."

Chapter 92 What is opening a box? It’s called reasoning! (4/5)

————Yan Shuangying is willing to meet with them.

This is the answer given by Nanatsuki Koshimizu on behalf of Narimi Asai.

Hattori Heiji and Hakuba Tan looked at each other, and then the two high school detectives nodded.

This time they left without bringing along plainclothes police officers as protectors - or rather, those plainclothes police officers simply couldn't keep up with Hattori Heiji and Hakuba Tōru when they didn't want them to follow them.

The reason why these plainclothes police officers were able to appear at the door with Hattori Heiji and Hakuba Tan before the explosion occurred.

It was completely because Hattori Heiji and Hakuba Tan suspected that there was really an explosion inside the Tokyo National Stadium after checking the clues, so in order to be on the safe side, they brought them in in advance and they were emergency personnel who could act as bomb disposal experts if necessary.

Now, they are going to meet Yan Shuangying, so there is no need for these plainclothes police officers to follow them.

After all, according to the information obtained by Bai Ma, Yan Shuangying doesn't seem to like the police of this country very much.

Tick, tick, tick, tick.

The four of them said nothing and just kept walking.

Finally, they saw the strange and inexplicably dangerous figure in a nearby alley.

The figure was wearing a black coat. Although the front could not be seen clearly, the sparks from the lit cigarette could be vaguely seen. Combined with the inexplicably dangerous atmosphere, if Bai Ma were to try to guess his identity, there would only be one answer -

Half-human, half-ghost, the best spearman! Yan Shuangying!

"You're looking for me."

Yan Shuangying's voice was calm and indifferent.

It sounds like a question grammatically, but it actually sounds like a statement.

It seemed as if this urban legend was certain that the two high school detectives were looking for him.

"Of course, Mr. Yan."

Bai Ma Tan's voice was soft, but his pronunciation was clear, with just a hint of a British accent.

————If he doesn't speak clearly, his British accent may make his speaking sound strange.

"The surname [Yan], um, is it a surname from [Honshu Island]?"

Hattori Heiji casually speculated on the origin of the name.

He said that the surname "Yan" came from "Honshu Island" not casually, but his qualities as a high school detective made him know that there were indeed about 300 people with the surname "Yan" in "Niigata City" on "Honshu Island".

However, he soon received a negative answer.

"Do not."

Yan Shuangying turned around, still wearing the sunglasses.

In the dim light, his face looked particularly stern and frightening.

He said.

“It’s the Chinese word for ‘yan’.”

————No wonder Bai Ma Tan’s last name is not pronounced standardly.

Hattori Heiji nodded somewhat awkwardly.

This guy probably already knew the origin of Yan Shuangying's surname, but just didn't say it out loud.

"Mr. Yan, I only have one question I want to get the answer from you, and that is————"

"Why do you stay in Beika Town?"

Hakuba Tan ignored Hattori Heiji's embarrassment and just asked on his own.

This was the answer he really wanted.

Compared to Lupin the Third, who also has extraordinary ability to move, Yan Shuangying is more terrifying, and the horror comes from the unknown.

If he could find the answer behind the unknown, then he could re-examine the urban legend of [Swallow Twin Eagles] and decide how to treat [Swallow Twin Eagles] during his stay in Tokyo.

With Baima Tan's ability to open the box——what is opening the box? This is called reasoning!

It was possible for him to deduce all the information about Yan Shuangying just like he deduced about Kaito Kidd, but he was not sure whether he should do so.

When dealing with a thief who has no killing power, he can play some harmless gambling with the thief after revealing his true identity.

But facing Yan Shuangying, just revealing his true identity could put his life in danger, so if he wants to capture Yan Shuangying, he must do so with the goal of capturing him————

Bai Ma Tan needs an accurate answer.

"Is this the answer you want to know? I can give you the answer——"

Yan Shuangying responded calmly.

"I stayed in Beika Town because I promised someone something. I promised to help him get rid of the termites in Beika Town."

"Criminals and the Black Organization are all included."

The person he was talking about was the original owner of this body, Nara Mitsuru. This was the promise he made to the original owner when he took over this body.

A gentleman's word is worth a thousand pieces of gold.

Yan Shuangying's promise is worth more than a fortune. As long as he makes a promise, he will never break it and will stick to it to the end.

Hearing Yan Shuangying's unexpected answer, Bai Batan's eyes widened slightly and he looked directly at the face of this Beika Town urban legend.

Although he couldn't see the other person's eyes because of the sunglasses, the psychology techniques he learned told him that the man was not lying to him and that this was the truth.

It couldn’t be more true.

"That's it."

Bai Ma Tan turned around, pressing his hat with his hand. The falcon perched on his other shoulder seemed to be able to sense the change in its owner's mood. It approached Bai Ma Tan and rubbed his face with its wings.

He said finally.

"I'm sorry I can't help you much, because I can't do that. But I can tell you that there is a third party involved in this explosion crime."

"And the hidden third party is most likely Pramya, who was stopped from committing a crime in Shibuya Ward for the last time and is now in a state of [retirement]."

"Well, goodbye, Mr. Yan."

The White Horse Detective left.

He had no intention of investigating anything, nor could he help Yan Shuangying investigate anything because he was the only son of the Chief Superintendent of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department.

Although Hakuba Tan left, Hattori Heiji did not leave. He was not as cautious as Hakuba Tan, and his father's identity was like a cloud to him.

Of course, his dad beat him without mercy.

The brown-haired famous detective stroked his chin and asked directly the question that concerned him most.

"I say, can't you disarm the criminals and hand them over to the police?"

"The police aren't that unreliable, are they? If you keep going like this, sooner or later you'll be wanted by the police—ah, should I say the public security bureau?"

Hattori Heiji raised his brows.

He noticed the existence of the Japanese Public Security Bureau. Even though he had no contact with them, he knew the working style of this group of secret police with a very bad reputation.

Execute first and report later, judge first and try later, kill first and ask questions later - this may be a bit extreme, but this is how Japanese police work in many places.

Sooner or later, Yan Shuangying will be regarded as a major criminal who threatens public safety and will be attacked by Japanese police.

"Some people deserve to go to jail, some people deserve to go to hell. It's obvious that the police are just going to send everyone to jail without distinction, isn't it?"

The man in black's voice was slightly humorous.

But his words weren't funny, because Hattori Heiji also knew how low the death penalty rate was in this country.

Especially when those abolitionist lawyers with shark arms keep getting in his way.

"Anyway, if you ever attack an innocent person, I will definitely come and stop you! That's it, goodbye!"

Hattori Heiji turned around, held the back of his head with both hands, and when he reached the entrance of the alley, he suddenly looked back and saw what he had expected.

There was no one in the alley anymore.

Whether it is Yan Shuangying, Yueshui Nanatsuki, or Asai Narimi.

"...Is this guy really not some Batman clone?"

He left muttering.

Chapter 93 How can people like you change? (5/5)

Axe Group, Tokyo Branch, Branch Director's Office.

The senior executive of the Axe Group who had previously appeared at the entrance of the Tokyo National Stadium was now sitting in the office.

Although he was lying on the sofa, looking out the floor-to-ceiling window of his office, overlooking the bustling city of Tokyo, and feeling the last rays of the setting sun, he did not feel any enjoyment or happiness in his heart.

There is only anxiety—incomparable anxiety.

The news about the Tokyo National Stadium was broadcast on Nichijo TV in the evening news program that just ended. It clearly stated that the chairman of the Suzuki Group, Shiro Suzuki, and his wife, Tomoko Suzuki, survived.

Although several explosions occurred, there were no casualties in the entire Tokyo National Stadium bombing incident!

The top brass couldn't understand why the Tokyo National Stadium was so big and bombed so many times, but no one was killed. Moreover, the police launched a city-wide manhunt for the Black Organization in the afternoon.

Judging from the speed of the police investigation, they might find out about the Fujiang chaebol soon!

Considering the character of the current head of the Fujiang Zaibatsu, if he fails to handle this matter properly, the company may be implicated. There may not even be a need for the Japanese police to come to his door. The head of the family may just send assassins all the way from Hokkaido to kill him!
