Conan struggled desperately.
"Sonoko, don't be angry. Put Conan down first. Conan might have something urgent to tell us."
Xiao Lan stepped forward to offer some advice.
Conan stopped kicking his legs and stared wide-eyed at Sonoko.
"Are you Sonoko?"
Conan asked cautiously.
Sonoko snorted coldly. "For Ran's sake, brat, I'll let you off this time!"
He let go, and Conan gasped for breath, clutching his reddened ears.
That gossipy Sonoko is incredibly strong; no wonder she can't find a boyfriend—she's just too barbaric.
Conan subconsciously overlooked Ran Mouri's fighting prowess in kicking down a telephone pole.
"Conan, why are you here?"
Ran Mouri squatted down and asked.
Conan's face stiffened. Oh no! He was so focused on rushing in that he hadn't thought about why he was there.
"Me? This..."
Conan stammered, and Ran looked at him with suspicion.
Why does Conan suddenly seem so stupid?
At that moment, he glanced out of the corner of his eye and saw Luke standing opposite him.
His lips parted and closed, silently uttering two words.
Conan can read lips; her father taught her in Hawaii.
Luke seems to be saying, New One
Yeah, we should just pin the blame on Shinichi now!
Conan suddenly realized.
wrong!
How did he know Shinichi?!
Conan felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave.
"Conan, Conan, what's wrong? What are you thinking about?"
Ran called Conan's name twice, but Conan still looked dazed.
"Could it be a fever?"
Ran panicked and placed her hand on Conan's forehead to check his temperature.
Conan was startled and jumped back a step like a frightened rabbit.
"Are you alright, Conan?"
"No, it's okay, Sister Xiaolan, I'm fine!"
Conan realized what was happening and laughed it off.
He focused all his attention on the host, Kazama, but found that Kazama didn't care about his reaction.
Instead, they chatted idly with the drastically changed Sonoko.
It's as if what he just said was just Conan's illusion.
But is it really just an illusion?
Conan felt a chill run down his spine, and a vague unease settled in his heart.
"It's good that you're alright, Conan. You still haven't told me what you're here for."
Xiao Lan then asked.
"It's Shinichi-nii. Shinichi-nii told me to come find you. He said I should come here to find you and go home."
Shinichi?
How did he know I was here?
Xiao Lan was puzzled.
"Shinichi said he learned about this from his friend."
Conan continued to add to the discussion.
Xiao Lan was finally relieved.
But Shinichi, even when you're not by my side, are you still watching over me?
Ran looked at Conan, who was covered in sweat and looked travel-worn, with a gentle gaze.
He gently patted Conan's big head and smiled:
"Then I'll thank Conan on Shinichi's behalf."
Conan felt comforted by his childhood friend and couldn't help but chuckle foolishly.
Suddenly, bang!
It's gunfire!
"Sister Xiaolan, lie down!"
Conan's pupils contracted, and he instinctively shouted.
Xiaolan was a little confused.
But then, Luke's calm voice came through.
"I'm outside. I'll go check out the situation."
Luke loosened his tight embrace of Sonoko, and Conan wanted to go out with him.
But as soon as they reached the door, Luke grabbed them and pulled them back.
"Xiao Lan, keep an eye on him. He went to the crime scene last time."
Xiao Lan nodded, looking nervous.
Conan was about to try and struggle a bit more.
But when Luke mentioned the last time, he remembered Luke's bizarre case-solving and his calm reaction after Luke lied to him.
Conan stopped moving.
"Mr. Kazama, should we wait a while before going out, just in case?"
"Don't worry, this kind of thing happens all the time here, everyone's used to it."
Luke smiled.
Xiaolan felt something was off, but she couldn't quite put her finger on it.
Chapter 100 Inspector Megure, Kazama-kun, I've got my eye on you!
Ever since he merged with his good brother in the Misty Space, cases have been coming in rather frequently.
A thought flashed through Luke's mind.
Stepping out of the private room, I saw the male escorts squatting on the ground, trembling.
Lying on the ground was the innocent assistant store manager.
However, this guy was still breathing, and the killer seemed to be planning to torture him slowly.
So the bullet only pierced his calf, rendering the assistant store manager unable to move.
Luke suddenly understood why the assistant store manager had worked so hard for so long without turning evil.
It seems he's playing the victim!
"Hmph! Come here and squat down!"
At that moment, the man with the gun pointed it at Luke.
The man looked unfamiliar; he was probably a waiter who had been temporarily hired to handle things.
Luke raised his hands in surrender, his gaze falling on the dark-skinned waiter.
The dark-skinned waiter nodded slightly, indicating that he understood.
"Can you tell me why you killed the store manager?"
Luke asked.
"Stop talking nonsense and get down on your knees!"
The man was very nervous, pointing the gun at Luke, ready to aim and fire at any moment.
"Okay, okay, don't worry, I'll be right there..."
As Luke spoke, he lowered his body to indicate that he was doing as the killer asked, but his voice grew softer and softer as he spoke.
"Do it!"
Luke suddenly shouted.
The man panicked and turned around to shoot.
But when they turned around, they found that no one stood up.
Got fooled!?
The man realized he had been tricked and was about to turn around and confront him.
Snapped!
Luke went up and hit him with a big shovel.
The man felt dizzy, his vision blurred, and he swayed twice.
Was he attacked?
He got slapped across the face by a male escort.
The man instinctively tried to pull the trigger, but before he could react, a bottle struck his wrist precisely.
It's bourbon.
The pistol was smashed to the ground, and the man collapsed to the ground, unconscious.
Luke clapped his hands, looking at the group of dumbfounded male escorts.
He smacked his lips and said:
"What are you standing there for? Hurry up and call the police and an ambulance. If you don't find a doctor soon, the store manager will be gone."
The assistant store manager meticulously plotted to escape the Suzuki Group's sanctions.
But to everyone's surprise, there was a master inside the store.
I almost got sent to the revival round.
However, it's also possible that the second son's luck is protecting him.
The top courtesan will definitely die first. As long as the top courtesans aren't all dead, the second-in-command won't be next, not even the second-in-command from back then.
The male escorts seemed to wake up from a dream, and one by one they hurriedly made phone calls.
"Hello, is this Inspector Megure? Yes, that's right, this is Takamagahara."
"Let the store manager answer the phone? The victim is the store manager..."
"Yuzuru, quick, get the bandages out. Let's do some basic first aid for the manager!"
Where is the first-aid kit? Does anyone know?
The scene became chaotic for a moment, Luke shrugged.
A dark-skinned waiter pulled out a rope from somewhere and began demonstrating a traditional Japanese art form – rope art.
