Traveling back thirty years to Conan, intercepting Princess Eri

Chapter 348 Impulsiveness is the devil
“That’s impossible,” Lin Xiuyi refused without hesitation. “It’s police evidence now. After your case is closed, it will be buried with your sister’s body.”

He paused slightly at this point.
"As the saying goes, one should rest in peace in the afterlife. Do you really want your sister, who is in the afterlife, to remain incomplete?"

Yuto Ogasawara stared intently at the glass jar, the madness in his eyes gradually fading, replaced by an indescribable sadness.

"I"

His voice was choked and almost incoherent, his hands unconsciously scratching at the table, his nails scraping against the surface with a harsh sound.

“You’re right, I shouldn’t have let Eunice suffer even after he died.”

"Snapped!"

Inspector Samezaki could no longer contain his anger. He slammed his hand on the table, making the coffee cups clatter: "Hurry up and tell me everything you've done!"

Yuto Ogasawara no longer hid anything and recounted the entire process of how he murdered his older sister, albeit haltingly.

"A week ago..."

His eyes became vacant and unfocused, as if he had returned to that terrible morning.

“That day, I had just gotten home from the izakaya when I saw Oni-san trying on various clothes in front of the mirror. I asked her out of curiosity and learned that she was going to Kyoto with Okawa for some alone time. I was immediately filled with jealousy and resentment.”

"In a fit of impulse, while Eunice was bending over to apply nail polish to her toenails, I attacked her, pinned her down on the bed, and grabbed her by the neck with both hands."

"Just before she was about to die, Eunice suddenly stopped struggling. She raised her arm, trying to touch my face, and a smile appeared on her face..."

At this point, Yuto Ogasawara's body trembled violently, and he covered his face with his hands, seemingly trying to hide his inner pain and regret.

"I vaguely heard Eunice say 'I'm sorry,' haha, that must have been my imagination! I was the one who killed Eunice, I'm the one who wronged her, so why was it Eunice who apologized!"

……

After his sister's death, Yuto Ogasawara felt as if his soul had been ripped away, and he was plunged into deep regret.

He sat blankly beside his sister's body, his eyes vacant.

In order to stay with his sister, he carefully hid Mari Ogasawara's body in the freezer.

Every day after get off work, he would open the freezer, sit beside it, and mutter to himself over his sister's body, as if she were still by his side.

Yuto Ogasawara thought he could stay with his sister like this forever, but his dream was soon shattered.

After seeing that Mari Ogasawara had not only failed to show up for her appointment but had also been absent from work for several days, President Okawa was filled with worry and went to the Beika Police Station to report her missing.

When police officers arrived at the apartment rented by Yuto Ogasawara to investigate, he pretended to be calm and told them that his sister had left for Kyoto a few days earlier.

Yuto Ogasawara's answer fooled the police officers, who believed it and did not conduct a thorough search of the apartment.

But this also made Yuto Ogasawara live in constant fear, worried that if Onaisan continued to disappear after a while, the police might find the body in the freezer when they investigated again.

Just then, he received an invitation to the funeral of a female classmate from high school, and Yuto Ogasawara began to harbor evil intentions.

He went to the crematorium first and bribed the staff with a large sum of money to cut off the female classmate's head before it went into the incinerator.

"Didn't those people suspect what you were up to?" Inspector Samezaki was furious, his face flushed and his eyes wide with anger. "I told them that Aine and I were a couple, but her family wouldn't accept me," Yuto Ogasawara forced a twisted smile, an expression that made his haggard face look even more eerie. "She was hit by a car when we ran away together. I took her head just to find a place to commit suicide and die with her."

"You're quite the storyteller," Officer Matsumoto remarked, shaking his head with disdain in his eyes.

“Actually, all they want is a reason,” Yuto Ogasawara said with a mocking smile. “Even if I don’t say anything, they will still do it as long as they have money.”

"Stop going off-topic," Inspector Samezaki frowned impatiently and tapped the table. "What happened after you got that girl's head?"

“I…” Yuto Ogasawara fell silent, his Adam’s apple bobbing up and down with difficulty. After hesitating for a while, he continued, “I went home and cut off my sister’s head with a chainsaw.”

His voice was filled with pain, as if he were experiencing immense torment with every word he spoke.

"After that, I found the owner of the izakaya and, on the grounds that business had been very good recently and meat needed to be replenished frequently, I got him to buy a large amount of meat at once."

"Then I soaked my sister's head in a glass jar containing formalin and hid it in the freezer of the izakaya."

"Aren't you afraid of being discovered by others?" Inspector Megure asked in surprise.

“I’m the only chef at that restaurant. I’ve worked there for several years, and the owner trusts me a lot,” Yuto Ogasawara explained. “Normally, no one touches that freezer except me.”

"After doing all that, you disfigured your female classmate's head and then put it in the convenience store last night?" Lin Xiuyi said on his behalf.

“That’s right,” Yuto Ogasawara nodded, his eyes filled with exhaustion. “Then, in the early morning, I threw my sister’s body into the river again…”

“I thought that by doing this, the police would give up looking for my sister’s body. Maybe we could get lucky and, because of the wounds on my sister’s body, we could frame Da Chuan for the murder.”

“Once this is all over, I can take my sister on a trip to Kyoto,” Yuto Ogasawara said, glaring at President Okawa beside him with hatred in his eyes. “It should be me who goes to Kyoto with my sister.”

"actually……"

President Okawa, standing to the side, hesitated for a moment, his face full of conflict, before finally speaking.
"Mari probably loves you too, but because of our blood ties, she had to run away and gradually came to like that kind of game that hurts her..."

“When we played games together, she would often ask me to call her Onassis. I always thought it was a role she liked to play.”

"Now it seems, perhaps she wants to treat me as you..."

These words immediately stunned Yuto Ogasawara.

His body froze on the spot, his eyes wide open, his face filled with shock and disbelief.

A moment later, Yuto Ogasawara slowly turned his head to look at the glass jar.

Inside the jar, Mari Ogasawara's head still held that serene smile, quietly watching over her younger brother.

That smile, like warm sunshine, pierced Yuto Ogasawara's heart.

He felt increasingly remorseful, his body trembled violently, and tears streamed down his face.

"I'm sorry, sister... I shouldn't have acted so impulsively!"
