Conan: The Man Behind the Romance

Chapter 148 Suzuki Sonoko betrayed the Shinran Party! (400 monthly tickets +1)

Kudo Shinichi, who was lying on the hospital bed, had a bright look in his eyes: "Mr. Amuro, I'm glad you asked me for help with this matter. I really misunderstood you at noon."

"........."

Toru Amuro scratched his ears slightly, not quite understanding the logic behind Kudo Shinichi's words. You were asked to work for nothing, yet you're so happy about it?

Moreover, it is just an independent case, discussing the facts. What does it have to do with things like character?
I thought so, but what Amuro Toru said was:
"I have heard of the great detective Kudo-kun for a long time. In this case, I am not sure whether my reasoning is accurate, so I asked you to fill in the gaps."

His plan was to use this simple case to bring him and Kudo Shinichi closer.

Kudo Shinichi shook his head: "Mr. Amuro's reasoning is very good, but unfortunately I am unable to move around now, so I can't accompany you to catch the person who pretends to be a ghost."

Although his foot is fine, his injured hand will move when he runs and walks. In order to recover better, it is better not to move around.

Based on his reasoning using Vermouth as eyes, the real murderer will most likely go to the room where Kogoro Mouri thought he was hallucinating tonight to commit the crime. However, the room where the real murderer originally hid the mannequin to pretend to be a ghost will not have anyone in it.

he thinks:

As long as Qingzi goes to the room where the dummy is hidden and confirms it, there will be no danger. Moreover, there are many sundries in there, and she can hide in advance. Even if the real murderer enters there, he may not be able to find her.

After he expressed his idea earlier, Vermouth also agreed.

One is that she had come to the same reasoning.

Secondly, she is not a real rookie, and even if something unexpected happens, she can easily handle most people.

Since Kudo Shinichi can't be seen in the ward, she doesn't have to disguise herself like she did last time in Kabukicho.

As for the subsequent explanation...

Oh, guess what, does Kudo Shinichi believe her or the suspect?
What's more, she didn't think there would be any accidents.

the reason is simple:
"Lan told Dr. Shirai this afternoon that if his father has hallucinations again tonight, he will be transferred to another hospital for psychological treatment. If the person pretending to be a ghost really wants to take advantage of the opportunity to do something, then tonight is the only time!"

After Kudo Shinichi finished speaking, he looked at Amuro Toru with burning eyes:
"Mr. Amuro, your client is Mizuki, right?"

Now that he was discovered, Toru Amuro did not hide it anymore and nodded:

"Mr. Shuiyue is very perceptive and found the flaw over the phone, but he was too lazy to come over himself, so he asked me to replace him."

"What? Isn't that guy good at reasoning? And yet he says he's not interested in this." Kudo Shinichi shook his head. "But compared to what he's doing now, he really isn't that interested."

Amuro Toru raised his eyebrows slightly: "What?"

"Uh...nothing."

Kudo Shinichi denied it, but Vermouth chuckled:
"Mizue-san is in the bar right now, introducing girls to our classmate Nakamichi. Previously, Nakamichi excitedly sent an email to Kudo-kun, asking him to analyze how he should behave later based on the photos."

Kudo Shinichi cannot move his hands now, so Vermouth helps him make and receive phone calls and check emails.

He felt quite embarrassed at first, but later he got used to it.

The most embarrassing moment was when Xiaolan came over. If Sonoko hadn't blocked her in time, the scene of him being fed fruit by Vermouth would have been seen.

After that, he didn't know what to say to Xiaolan. Fortunately, it was Yuanzi who took Xiaolan out shopping in time.

call--

That's really a great help.

Hearing Vermouth's words, Amuro Toru shook his head and laughed: "So that's how it is."

Although the thought of a high school student going to a bar made him, an undercover policeman, subconsciously have a negative impression, but because Yingsheng had spoken to him on the phone several times and his voice was always clear and logical, and he had a casual demeanor, he subconsciously treated it as an exception.

"In order not to disappoint Mr. Suigetsu, I will go ahead and ambush you. See you later, Kudo-kun."

Toru Amuro glanced at the time and it was almost half past nine.

Although there were still two hours before Kogoro Mori saw the "hallucinations" for the first two times, he still had to leave some margin. After all, if their guess was true, this matter involved a human life and could not be taken lightly.

"Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Amuro." "It's not hard work, I'm paid for it."

"........."

Kudo Shinichi felt that the last sentence was a sarcasm towards him.

After Amuro Toru left, Vermouth also looked at Kudo Shinichi: "Then I'll go over too."

Kudo Shinichi nodded: "Be careful, put on your headphones, stay on the line, and call me if you have any questions."

Vermouth carefully tucked the quilt for him and smiled softly, "I'd better call you Mr. Amuro."

"........."

Kudo Shinichi curled his lips: "That guy is indeed very powerful, especially in terms of force."

"Yes, Kudo-kun is the best at reasoning."

Vermouth waved her hand: "See you later, Kudo-kun."

As he spoke, the figure disappeared behind the door.

Looking at the empty doorway, Kudo Shinichi felt inexplicably empty in his heart.

But it was only for a moment, then he shook his head and laughed, turned around, fell back on the bed, and stared at the pale ceiling in a daze.

What will be the outcome of this case?

What will the future hold?

Although I said a lot of big words outside the milk tea shop at noon, in fact most of it was forced by the situation and the boiling blood caused me to act impulsively at the moment.

His true heart...

Ah, it’s not that easy to see.

To be irresponsible, if it weren't for Suzuki Sonoko's chaos that made the situation out of control, he would never have done that this afternoon.

After he ran out of the classroom after hearing Shuiyue's words, he actually figured it out halfway. There were two girls talking, so how could he pull one away for no reason?

Who does he think he is to Xuesong Kiyoko?
There is no position at all.

Besides, he didn't know where the two people would go, and it was impossible for him to call and ask them. It was not easy to run into them.

After figuring out these two points, he immediately understood:

Damn it, Shuiyue tricked me!
The guy took advantage of his unstable mood and offered to buy lemonade, but he forgot to refuse.

hiss--

Thinking about it this way, couldn't it be that what Shuiyue said before was just a prelude to get him to help buy lemonade?

This person has such a bad heart!

With this thought in mind, Kudo Shinichi went to the milk tea shop, and in his heart he had actually temporarily put aside the other pink bubbles.

As a result, things just happened to be like that.

Listening to the slight background noise in the silence in the headphones, Kudo Shinichi sighed in his heart.

It's no use regretting now, he...

Sizzle! Sizzle! Sizzle! Sizzle!
A sharp sound of electric current resounded through the earphones. Kudo Shinichi couldn't move his hands to take off the earphones, and his eardrums were almost punctured by his grimace!
But he didn't care about this at all at this moment, and shouted anxiously:

"Kiyoko!"
