I'm in Conan, I'm not a gangster

Chapter 266: The Murder of Akiko Yonehara (Part 1)
The team-building villa is located on the mountainside, far away from the hustle and bustle of the city and is particularly quiet.

However, although the location of the villa is beautiful, it also brings inconvenience in transportation, especially in bad weather, the road up the mountain becomes extremely dangerous, and the dense forests around it are covered with snow.

Yonehara Akiko drove her car slowly up the winding mountain road. The sky was gloomy, and the strong wind mixed with snowflakes, hitting the car window fiercely, making the vision blurry.

The snow on the road was getting thicker and thicker, and the wheels were slipping from time to time. Akiko Yonehara gripped the steering wheel tightly, carefully controlling the speed of the car.

"This road is really difficult to walk on..." She whispered to herself with a frown.

Xiaolan, who was sitting in the passenger seat, was also very nervous and couldn't help but said, "Teacher, drive slower, we are not in a hurry!"

"Well, let's drive slowly." Yonehara Akiko nodded and replied. She began to worry about Mr. Shimoda and Mr. Itai.

If they gave up going to the resort because of the snowstorm, all his carefully planned murder would be in vain.

Thinking of this, she felt even more depressed.

After a long and difficult drive, Akiko Yonehara finally arrived at the holiday villa.

She stopped the car and looked through the window to see several cars parked in the parking lot in front of the villa. She breathed a sigh of relief and her worries were slightly relieved.

At least, Mr. Shimoda and Mr. Itai should have arrived safely.

Akiko Yonehara got out of the car. The cold wind mixed with snowflakes blew in her face. She couldn't help but shrink her neck and walked quickly towards the door of the villa.

She looked back at Shiraishi Hui, Xiaolan and Sonoko who were following behind her, and motioned for them to follow.

When you open the door of the villa, you will feel a warm feeling. The decoration inside the villa is warm and elegant, and the fire in the fireplace is burning, dispelling the cold outside.

When Akiko Yonehara saw teachers Shimoda and Itai sitting on the sofa in the living room, chatting with another female teacher, Nakamura, the last bit of worry in her heart disappeared.

"Thank you for your hard work, everyone. It's windy and snowy outside. Please come in and warm up." Akiko Yonehara said to Shiraishi E, Ran and Sonoko with a smile.

She took off her coat and hung it on the hanger beside her, then went to the kitchen to prepare hot tea and snacks for everyone.

"Teacher Yonehara, thank you so much!" Xiaolan took the hot tea and said gratefully.

Shiraishi E and Sonoko also expressed their thanks and then sat down on the sofa.

Teacher Nakamura looked at the three young men and asked curiously, "Teacher Yonehara, who are these three?"

"They are my former students. I happened to meet them at the ski resort, so I invited them to join the team building together." Yonehara Akiko said embarrassedly: "Isn't this a bit inconvenient?"

"No, no!" Teacher Nakamura said with a chuckle, "It's more lively when there are more people!"

The social expert Sonoko took the initiative to ask, "Mr. Nakamura, are you just the four of you starting the team building?"

"No, there's also a teacher named Sugiyama... He hasn't arrived yet. He must have been stopped at the foot of the mountain by the snowstorm." Teacher Nakamura replied in a friendly manner.

Xiaolan asked curiously like a curious baby: "Teacher Nakamura, what do you teach?"

After Xiaolan's questioning, Shiraishi E learned about the situation of these teachers and gradually recalled what happened in this case.

Three years ago, a sixth-grade student named Minako Mochizuki chose to hang herself at school because of "too much pressure."

However, Akiko Yonehara knew that Minako did not commit suicide, but was murdered because she discovered that teachers Sugiyama and Shimoda were secretly enrolling students illegally. The school was also worried about the impact on its reputation, so they claimed that it was suicide.

She endured it for three years, but could no longer bear it, so she started her revenge plan!

She only knew that one of the teachers was Mr. Sugiyama, and didn't know who the other one was, so she took the opportunity of the team building to identify the other murderer.

Mr. Sugiyama, who had not arrived yet, was actually dead and was hidden under the bed of Akiko Yonehara.

After accidentally meeting Xiaolan Yuanzi at the ski resort, he planned to use them.

As Shiraishi Hui was thinking, she suddenly recalled a scene.

Akiko Yonehara once used her wig to make Sonoko faint.

After thinking of this, he looked at the female teacher with some indifference in his eyes.

……………………“We’ve been chatting for so long, everyone must be a little hungry, right?”

"I'll go to the kitchen and prepare some food!"

"Xiaolan, Sonoko...can you come over and help me?"

While chatting, Yonehara Akiko sat up from the sofa and wanted to get something to eat, so she asked Xiaolan and Sonoko for help.

"Yeah~~" "No problem." How could Xiaolan and Yuanzi, two kind-hearted children, refuse the teacher's request?

Unfortunately, however, this teacher was just taking advantage of their kindness... Shiraishi Hui thought, and stood up and took the initiative to follow her into the kitchen.

When Yonehara Akiko found that Shiraishi E had followed in, she chuckled and said, "Shinichi, you don't have to come in to help... just wait outside."

"It's okay. It would be awkward for me to sit outside." Shiraishi Hui said casually and then took the initiative to help.

"Teacher, Shinichi's cooking skills are very good~" Xiaolan signaled to the teacher not to worry.

"Yeah~~ His cooking skills are better than mine!!" Sonoko also agreed.

"Huh? So that's it! Shinichi, you've become an excellent man!!" After hearing this, Yonehara Akiko praised with a smile, and asked Shiraishi E to help prepare the ingredients.

Half an hour later, she suddenly thought of something, put down the knife in her hand, and said, "I also brought some seasonings... I'll go back to the room!"

With that, she took off her apron and left the kitchen.

However, he didn't come back for more than ten minutes.

Xiaolan frowned slightly, her eyes flashed, and she said, "It's been so long, why hasn't the teacher come back yet?"

"Yeah...that seasoning shouldn't take that long, right?" Sonoko muttered, feeling that something was not right.

According to the development of the anime, at this moment Sonoko will go to Yonehara Akiko's room to look for her, and then be ambushed by her.

But now...

"I'll go find Mr. Yonehara." Shiraishi said, taking off her apron and leaving the kitchen.

After arriving at the living room, he asked several teachers in the living room and learned that Akiko Yonehara's room was on the first floor near the utility room, so he went there.

Shiraishi E came to Yonehara Akiko's room and found the door was ajar. He had good eyesight and saw that the room was dark and there was a person lying on the ground.

The other person was dressed exactly like Yonehara Akiko, but her face was covered by her hair.

This is the deceased Mr. Sugiyama, who was used by Akiko Yonehara to create the illusion that "he" was attacked.

He thought about it, knocked on the door and said, "Teacher, you are in there... huh? Why is the door open?"

He did this to remind the other party—I'm here, it's time to start preparing to act.

Shiraishi Hui pushed open the door and stepped into the dim room.

He walked up to the body of "Akira Yonehara".

When Akiko Yonehara, who was hiding behind the door, saw Shiraishi E coming in, she quietly came up behind her and suddenly strangled her neck with the wig in her hand, trying to strangle her to unconsciousness!

However, just as she began to exert force, she felt a hard elbow hit her lower abdomen the next second.

This caused Akiko Yonehara to immediately let out a cry of pain.

She couldn't hold the wig with her hands anymore, her legs went limp, and she fell to her knees with a thud, holding her abdomen with a look of pain on her face.

Shiraishi Hui closed the door slowly, then turned on the light with a click.

He looked at Mihara Akiko, who was kneeling on the ground, covering her lower abdomen. His cold eyes changed into surprise, and he said in a surprised tone: "Teacher Mihara, why did you sneak attack me?"

“………” Yonehara Akiko looked up at Shiraishi E with great effort. She opened her mouth, enduring the pain, but couldn’t say a word.
