Daily Spy Life in the Detective Conan World

Chapter 986 Revealing Identity
Xia Chuan's lips twitched; for a moment, he didn't know how to judge this person's personality.

How could someone with that kind of personality become a housekeeper?

Or is this not normal, and is it being targeted at me?

Thinking back to what he saw during the fire, he felt it was impossible.

Jinqu Hongsheng did not stop Xia Chuan from going upstairs, but just watched him quietly from behind.

I couldn't sense any murderous intent, but I just felt that this person was very strange.

Upon arriving on the second floor, Haga Kyosuke was indeed there.

He stood by the window as before, gazing intently out the window, lost in thought.

"Mr. Yuhe."

Xia Chuan walked straight up to him.

"Mr. Mori, is there something you need?"

Haga Kyosuke's pupils held a deep wariness, and he opened his crossed legs, which in psychology represents vigilance and readiness to act at any moment.

"I heard that thirty years ago, Mr. Yuhe's father died because of that violin."

Xia Chuan gestured towards the violin on the table with his lip: "But it seems you still like it very much."

Kyosuke Haga didn't answer, looking at him with a puzzled expression.

Did the theft case from thirty years ago really happen?

“I had already investigated before coming here. The police did not receive any reports from the Shitara family thirty years ago. I don’t believe the Shitara family would do nothing about something this big. There must be some hidden story behind this, right?”

Yuga Kyosuke's expression darkened slightly. "I don't know. I was young at the time, so I'm not very clear about it."

Xia Chuan smiled, looking at him with a half-smile.

After thinking for a while, he said, "I'm very curious."

"what?"

Yuga Kyosuke's eyebrows twitched, and his heart began to pound faster.

"I'm very curious how you became his subordinate, and why you stayed at the Shirakawa residence even after everyone else had left."

This statement is equivalent to telling Haga Kyosuke, "I already know your identity."

Yuga Kyosuke's expression changed drastically.

He had considered that Kogoro Mouri might be connected to Natsukawa, and that his presence here might be aimed at him.

But he never expected that Kogoro Mouri would so openly reveal his identity.

Brother, wasn't there any warning beforehand? Was it all so sudden?

What kind of prelude do you want?
Before his death, Genzaburo Setara was still wondering why the other person hadn't left, and whether Karasuma Renya was carrying out a special mission.

After Genzaburo Shitara's death, many of these doubts were dispelled.

Kyosuke Haga will definitely leave, but something has delayed him.

That matter should be related to a case from thirty years ago.

"Kogoro Mouri, you really came here for me."

"I advise you not to move around!"

No sooner had Yuga Kyosuke made a move than Natsukawa had already pointed his gun at him.

When exactly?
Kyosuke Haga believed that after professional agent and firearms training, he already possessed all the abilities of a professional assassin, including excellent eyesight.

But Xia Chuan's speed in drawing his gun far exceeded his expectations.

It's like magic.

"Answer my question first, shall we?"

Xia Chuan did not approach the other party easily.

Since he is Karasuma Renya's subordinate, he should be given enough respect. If he suddenly becomes stronger like Gin did on drugs, where can he complain?

Haga Kyosuke glanced around, and after a while, suddenly smiled.

"Mr. Mori, have you ever considered whose territory this is?"

"Ok?"

Xia Chuan didn't turn his head, as if he had eyes in the back of his head, "Isn't that Butler Jinqu?"

"You know?" Haga Kyosuke exclaimed in surprise.

"I don't know, I'm just guessing."

So that's how it is. Is Tsukumo Kousei also a member of Karasuma Renya's group?

Or rather, it's one of Haga Kyosuke's people. Indeed, if it were tampering with the stairs and railings, the butler would definitely have a better chance than Haga Kyosuke.

“Mr. Mori, although you did not intend to steal the violin, pointing a gun at the young master is absolutely unacceptable.”

"Why would someone who is clearly the Shitara family's butler help Haga Kyosuke?"

The image of Tsukumo Kōsei and Setara Tanjirō, childhood friends, flashed through Natsukawa's mind.

Is it really that melodramatic?
If that's the case, he'll definitely scold Qingshan.

"This has nothing to do with you."

Jin Qu Hongsheng's tone remained as serious and ruthless as ever, and Xia Chuan couldn't detect any murderous intent in it.

“Mr. Mori, a former detective, now a renowned detective. I know you are the best marksman in the police academy, but if you kill me, you will die too.”

If Kogoro Mouri dares to fire, Tsukushi Kousei will not hesitate; the bullet will pierce through the back of Kogoro Mouri's head.

He stared intently at Xia Chuan, calming himself down, and said, "Instead of risking your life for Xia Chuan, you might as well join our organization. Right now, the organization is short-handed."

"Join the organization, and status and wealth will be readily available. You will no longer need to accept commissions for the sake of money and daily necessities."

A very tempting argument.

However, whether wealth is readily available is questionable.

Doesn't Gin know how poor he is?

"If I die here, Xia Chuan will come after you."

"Heh, after today, I will leave the Shera family. If he has the ability to find me, then I deserve to die."

really!

Xia Chuan confirmed his guess.

The reason why Haga Kyosuke didn't leave was to seek revenge, not because Karasuma Renya had given him any compelling reason to do it.

"Put down your gun."

Yuga Kyosuke gradually induced him.

As soon as Kogoro Mouri lowers his gun, Kōsei Tsuguma behind him will fire.

He believed that Kogoro Mouri would be fooled, because there was no one in this world who was not afraid of death.

"In that case, I have no choice but to surrender."

Xia Chuan gave a bitter smile and slowly lowered the muzzle of his gun.

Yuga Kyosuke's lips gradually parted into a grin.

"Yes, yes, put it down, everything is negotiable, I can play it."

Jin Qu Hongsheng's index finger was already on the trigger, about to fire.

"I lied to you!"

Xia Chuan suddenly revealed a smug smile.

Jin Qu Hongsheng fired without hesitation.

However, it was still slow.

Xia Chuan made a dodge maneuver in advance, accurately predicting the timing of the shot.

The bullet grazed the hem of my clothes, leaving a speck of blood.

Haga Kyosuke suddenly charged forward.

Kogoro Mouri is a skilled marksman and a judo expert, so there aren't many opportunities to subdue him.

At that moment, there happened to be a gap.

As for why Jin Qu Hongsheng wasn't allowed to continue firing?
That's impossible. Although the pistol is equipped with a silencer, continuous firing will still attract attention.

For example, Shirakawa Renki downstairs.

He had already prepared a suitable way for the other party to die and was unwilling to make any changes at the last minute.

The two were locked in combat, and Jin Qu Hongsheng was not idle either. He grabbed the bow next to him and thrust it at them.

Although this bow is made of wood, it is solid wood. After the front end is broken off, sharp spikes appear, making it a deadly weapon.

A cold glint flashed in Xia Chuan's eyes.

When Haga Kyosuke met his gaze, a sudden chill ran through him.

Immediately afterwards, he felt Kogoro Mouri, who had been his equal in strength, suddenly unleash a powerful force in his arm and throw him away.

The direction is Jin Qu Hongsheng!
