In Conan, people have a brain option system.

Chapter 136 Sister Shiliang, what happened? (13)

Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko thanked Kuriyama Midori and hung up the phone.

After hanging up the phone, Suzuki Sonoko's face, which was filled with dissatisfaction, finally showed a happy expression again.

She began to discuss with Mao Lilan what kind of gift she should bring to visit Akikawa Sosuke.

Conan walked behind the team.

His eyes were fixed on Sera Masumi, who had not said a word since Toda Kyoji was taken away.

Obviously.

Masumi Sera was thinking about Toda Kyoushi's last words.

"Boy."

Perhaps feeling Conan's gaze, Sera Masumi spoke in a deep voice.

"Do you think Toda Kyouji's last words are credible?"

“The credibility is very low.”

Conan answered.

"To commit self-harm in order to aggravate Koichi Nishihara's crime, and to intentionally destroy the corpse."

"And inject Ohkawa Takao with morphine and naloxone."

"Let's not talk about whether Qiuchuan can do those things with his frail appearance."

"Even if he could do it, I find it hard to understand his motivation behind the action."

Conan said.

"Just like we discussed before, maybe Akikawa is punishing the criminal in his own way."

Sera Masumi guessed.

"This is unreasonable."

"Because apart from the car accident case, Qiuchuan had no suspicion at all in the following two cases."

"Then if he does these things, he will become a criminal."

"In this way, the benefits are totally disproportionate to the risks."

Conan denied Sera Masumi's statement.

"Why, Miss Sera, do you believe what Toda said just now about his 'sense of criminals'?"

"That's not the case. But I think that in a situation like the one just now where the crime has been proven, Toda has absolutely no reason to lie."

"After all, he had given up trying to escape the crime in the end and was simply reminding me."

After Sera Masumi finished speaking, he paused for a moment and continued:

"Although I really, really, really hate that Toda."

“But I noticed something.”

"That is, the people he would choose to induce confessions, force confessions, and induce attacks on police officers are all those he 'identified' as 'criminals.'"

"Could it be that he attacked Akikawa because he firmly believed that Akikawa was a criminal?"

When Conan listened to Sera Masumi's guess, a speechless expression appeared on his face.

"Ms. Sera, is it possible that only the criminal, Toda, could commit violence against the other party without any scruples?"

"If there were no law to restrain them, I think such people might also attack civilians."

"He is just a violent maniac who is even more sick than Koichi Nishihara before."

Conan found Sera Masumi's thoughts very strange.

He continued:
"Suppose, that Toda Kyouji is really as you said, Miss Sera, an 'extremely righteous' detective."

"In order to punish the criminals, they did not hesitate to fabricate evidence and induce or force confessions."

"His goal is to send criminals to jail."

"Do you think his behavior can be forgiven?"

"Of course not!"

Sera Masumi answered firmly.

"Let's not even mention that the actions he, as a criminal police officer, took against the criminals were already against the law."

"The fact that his criteria for attacking are based on his own judgment is very unreliable."

“People are bound to make mistakes.”

"If he mistakes the wrong person for the criminal, then with his forged evidence and forced confessions, an innocent person will become a criminal." "That's it, Ms. Sera and I have the same idea."

Conan spread his hands and said with a smile.

“But that’s not what I want to say.”

Sera Masumi raised his voice slightly.

"There is no doubt that Officer Toda committed an unforgivable crime."

"But I think he must have a reason to identify Akikawa as the criminal..."

As Sera Masumi said this, he put his hand on his mouth and continued thinking.

After a moment, Sera Masumi seemed to have made a decision and took two quick steps to the side of Mouri Ran and Suzuki Sonoko.

"Oh, sorry, Xiaolan, Sonoko, I suddenly remembered that I have something else to do, so I'll leave first!"

"After that, you guys decide when to visit Qiuchuan and contact me!"

While shouting behind him, Sera Masumi ran in the direction where Megure Jusan and others had just left.

"Eh?! Sera, where are you going..."

Ran Mouri stretched out her hand as if she wanted to grab Masumi Sera.

Unfortunately, before she could finish her words, she saw Sera Masumi had disappeared from her sight.

"You little brat was talking to Sera in secret just now. Do you know where Sera was doing?"

Suzuki Sonoko turned around, bent down, put her finger on Conan's forehead.

"I don't know, maybe Sister Sera suddenly remembered that her favorite mystery novel is on sale!"

Conan spoke to Suzuki Sonoko in his innocent voice.

"Do you think everyone is like you, little brat?"

"Sera wouldn't be obsessed with something like this."

"Then I don't know."

Suzuki Sonoko was unable to get any useful information from Conan, so she straightened up helplessly and walked side by side with Mouri Ran again.

After dealing with Suzuki Sonoko, Conan finally showed a speechless expression.

How could he not know what Sera Masumi was thinking?

'Why do I feel like this tomboy has become suspicious since she heard me talk about another possible identity of Akikawa Sosuke?'

"She doesn't really think that Akikawa is a character comparable to an agent, does she?"

Conan recalled how Akikawa Sosuke had grabbed him, crying, and asked him in a trembling voice whether he would die.

He shook his head.

"If that was performed by that Akikawa, then his acting skills are really comparable to my mother's."

Conan complained in his mind.
-
the other side.

Megure Juzo, who had just sent someone to put Toda Kyoushi in the back seat of a police car, suddenly heard a burst of hurried footsteps behind him.

He looked back.

Then he saw the tomboy detective, Sera Masumi, whom he had just met a few minutes ago, running towards him quickly.

"Sister Shiliang, what's wrong?"

"Officer Megure, I have a request."

Megure Jusan heard Sera Masumi say.

"Please let me, along with Officer Sato, go and confirm the evidence that Officer Nakajima forged in Akikawa's house!"

"No, that's against the rules!"

Megure Juzo directly rejected Sera Masumi's proposal.

"Officer Megure, I think there's a good chance that Officer Nakajima will deceive Officer Sato."

"So I thought I might be able to help Officer Sato and help identify which pieces of evidence were fabricated by Officer Toda."

"And I will definitely not tell anyone about this. I didn't tell Xiaolan and the others either. I came here alone to ask for help from Officer Megure."

As Sera Masumi said this, he lowered his head and clasped his hands together as if making a request.

Megure Juzo looked at Sera Masumi, considered for a long time, and then nodded helplessly.

"Okay, I'll go talk to Sato."
