With a gentle smile on her face, Minagawa Akane adopted a very humble posture.

If it were a man, he would probably be very proactive in telling Akane Minagawa about school and trying his best to impress her.

After all, this Minagawa Akane is really good at arousing a man's protective instincts, and at the same time, she is also very good at grasping his little thoughts.

Men, there's no such thing as pure friendship between opposite sexes.

Everyone has their own thoughts or ideas.

".....All right."

After staring at Minagawa Akane for a few seconds, Yamanaka Sawako's tone softened slightly.

Don't be fooled by Sawako Yamanaka's usual gentle yet slightly cunning demeanor.

But in reality, how many girls who play heavy metal rock actually have a very gentle personality?

Along the way, Minagawa Akane seemed to genuinely want to ask about some things, just as she had said, casually inquiring about various matters within the school with Yamanaka Sawako.

until......

"Speaking of which, did that student mention where they would go to university afterward?"

With her hands behind her back, Minagawa Akane asked the question as if it were unintentional.

But whether it was unintentional or not, only she knows.

"Maybe so. Luo Zhen probably has his own plans."

"He has always been a very opinionated child."

Sawako Yamanaka glanced at Akane Minagawa and said calmly.

Regardless of what Minagawa-sensei is really thinking.

Sawako Yamanaka wasn't worried about Rōjin at all.

After all, Luo Zhen had always given Yamanaka Sawako the impression of being very mature and reliable.

It always is.

Moreover, even if Akane Minagawa really had some ideas...

But first we need to find Luo Zhen's contact information.

Therefore, Sawako Yamanaka was not worried at all.

"That's it."

Nodding, Minagawa Akane really did it as if it were just a casual remark.

After that statement, the topic of Luo Zhen was never mentioned again.

However, Sawako Yamanaka remained cautious and planned to send a message to Rōzō about the matter when she returned.

Again.

No matter how you look at it, Akane Minagawa is a great beauty.

But Yamanaka Sawako always had a bad feeling about it, but she couldn't quite put her finger on what was wrong.

Judging people by their appearance or making a haphazard first impression and labeling someone is a very bad thing to do.

But this teacher is really strange.

"Thank you so much for today, Mr. Yamanaka."

Standing at the entrance of the teaching building, Akane Minagawa smiled and said goodbye to Sawako Yamanaka.

Watching the other person's departing figure, Sawako Yamanaka couldn't help but frown.

He then took out his phone to send a message to Luo Zhen.

When she took out her phone, Sawako Yamanaka even looked up at it.

For some reason, Sawako Yamanaka always felt that whenever she sent a message to Ryouma, Minagawa-sensei, who had already walked far away, would appear behind her and speak softly.

...How could that be?

Smiling and shaking her head, Sawako Yamanaka found her own thoughts slightly laughable.

If that were the case, wouldn't it turn into a horror movie?

But how exactly should we put this?

Looking at the screen on her phone, Sawako Yamanaka felt a little troubled.

After all, it always feels a bit strange to suddenly say something like, "A teacher seems to be watching you, so be careful."

After thinking it over, Sawako Yamanaka finally decided to tell Rōzō the truth.

"You're really being cautious, Mr. Yamanaka."

Where Sawako Yamanaka couldn't see, Akane Minagawa, leaning against the school gate, still wore that unchanging smile.

Even though we had walked quite a distance, it seemed like we had seen something.

On the other side, Luo Zhen was somewhat surprised after receiving the message from Yamanaka Sawako.

Luo Zhen still has a pretty good impression of the name Minagawa Akane.

Back then, that anime was constantly fluctuating between being considered "incoherent" and "mentally polluting" on online forums due to its negative reputation.

But because of this, even without watching the anime, Luo Zhen knew about it.

For example, the name of the female cousin, Ziqian.

This woman is obsessed with proving her charm and even her worth by taking men by force.

Moreover, they seem to have absolutely no psychological burden regarding cheating.

Although he was redeemed at the end of the anime.

But that still can't hide the fact that her private life can only be described as chaotic or even disordered.

Her past can only be described as Shennong tasting hundreds of herbs.

In the end, he found an honest man and settled down to live a peaceful life.

Well, pretty good.

Why would this mysterious figure appear at Soubu High School?

Moreover, judging from what Ms. Yamanaka said, it seems that she has her eye on him?

Although Akane Minagawa is very pretty and has a great figure.

But for Luo Zhen, who has a mild case of mysophobia, this is absolutely unacceptable.

Being able to communicate normally is already the limit.

We can't even be friends anymore.

Luo Zhen put his phone away, not taking it too seriously.

Just ignore these kinds of people.

There's no need to worry about it too much.

Meanwhile, in the police station, Kogoro Mouri's frivolous smile had vanished.

Conan, who was standing next to Kogoro Mouri, was also deep in thought.

To be honest, this case is a bit too outrageous.

Those prisoners either died mysteriously or were killed by others.

And the person who did it also died in the end.

Their bodies also contain mechanical devices such as gears.

what is this?

Is it a new cult?

But that’s not right either.

According to information provided by the Chiba police, these individuals have all improved their physical fitness by one level.

Judging from the videos on the body cameras of those police officers, even Kogoro Mouri himself wasn't confident he could safely subdue them.

Don't be fooled by his appearance as a middle-aged man whose body has been ravaged by alcohol and women.

In fact, Kogoro Mouri's fighting power is quite considerable when he gets serious.

“These people…”

Clutching a few photos, Kogoro Mouri, as was his habit, began to think like a detective, searching for possible connections between these people.

They seem to have absolutely no connection.

"Officer Bai Gui, could you take me to see the previous surveillance footage?"

"There is also some more detailed information."

These materials alone don't reveal any useful information.

Not only him, but Conan is the same.

In this situation, even Sherlock Holmes wouldn't be able to deduce any useful information.

After all, there were very few useful clues.

"Ok."

Nodding, Hyakki Funetaro led the two to the archives.

But in reality, he was already considering transferring the case to a higher level.

In the adult world, there is no such thing as giving up voluntarily; there is only cutting losses in time.

Chapter 1021 Kogoro Mouri Gives Up on Treatment

After entering the archives, Conan bypassed Kogoro Mouri and Funetaro Hyakki and quickly walked forward to find the information and clues he wanted.

For Conan, or rather, for the detective Shinichi Kudo, the most important thing in life is solving cases.

The rest can wait.

When faced with a case, this guy's brain works at lightning speed.

But correspondingly, many things will be forgotten.

For example, the fact that I am just a child right now.

Therefore, he would often do things that were clearly inconsistent with his status.

These actions cannot be explained simply by maturity.

It's also thanks to the police officers in Mihua, whose work capacity is roughly equivalent to 1.5 police dogs.

Otherwise, this kid would have run into trouble long ago.

"Haha, this kid has always admired detectives."

"Perhaps they are somewhat like me because of my influence."

His eyelids twitched, and Kogoro Mouri immediately laughed it off.

He cursed Conan inwardly, thinking to himself, "That brat!"

You should at least pay attention to your current situation!

This isn't rice cake!

When I was making rice cakes, I had my old friends and classmates with me.

I can help keep an eye on things a little.

Even if they notice Conan's unusual behavior, they will only give him a slight reminder out of consideration for themselves, without saying anything more.

But this is Chiba, you bastard!

Moreover, he was facing a professional superintendent.

Non-professional members like Takagi are generally easy to talk to; they're very down-to-earth.

However, as a professional, Hyakki Funetaro is definitely a more serious and earnest type.
