Conan: Above all force, there is truth!

Ran pursed her lips shyly and looked down at the table, while Ryūno smiled sheepishly at Kogoro Mouri.

Although he and Xiaolan had done this countless times before...

But doing this in front of Kogoro Mouri doesn't seem quite right.

"You're still high school students, how can you do this in public... Humph!" Kogoro Mouri crossed his arms and glared at Ryūno through gritted teeth.

Although he knew that Ryūno and Rin had a good relationship since childhood, and that they even lived together frequently after entering high school.

But I absolutely will not allow you to be affectionate in front of me!

This is my absolute bottom line, Kogoro Mouri!!!

……

After parting ways, the bride smiled and said goodbye to the groom, "Alright, I'll probably be back in about two hours. Then you can admire my manicure properly!"

"Okay, be careful on the road," the groom waved back.

Just as the bride was about to leave, Ryūno stood up and walked to her side: "Ms. Kamon Hatsune, please wait a moment, there is something I want to tell you."

Longye's sudden action stunned Xiaolan and the others present.

Just as the groom stood up to question Ryuno, Ryuno looked at him and said, "Mr. Banba Raita, please come over here too."

Banba Raita: "???"

After saying that, Longye turned to look at Xiaolan and the other two, who were all full of question marks: "Xiaolan, let's talk about it when I get back."

And so, amidst the puzzled gazes of the crowd, Longye led the bewildered bride and groom into a room to the side.

Only Ryūno and the bride and groom were in the room.

Looking at the two people in front of him, Longye thought about how to start the conversation.

No wonder he had always felt something was off. This impending "incident" had left a deep impression on him.

Firstly, because this seems to be Amuro Tooru's first official appearance in the original series.

Secondly, it's about the "true identities" of the bride and groom!

Longye looked at the "newlyweds" with a complicated expression.

The bride in front of me will soon choose to commit suicide.

The reason was both simple and complicated: she received a call from a staff member at the hospital's identification department.

She commissioned a DNA comparison test between the two individuals.

The results of the identification show that the bride, Hatsune Kamon, and the groom, Raita Banba, are actually twins who are related by blood!

In other words, she and the groom are actually siblings!

Suddenly, the immense pressure from ethical and moral constraints overwhelmed the bride, ultimately leading to...

Chapter 267 A Painful Appraisal

Seeing that Longye hadn't spoken for a long time, the groom frowned, looking somewhat annoyed.

Meanwhile, the bride, who should have been rushing to get her nails done, unexpectedly calmed down and stood quietly waiting for Longye to speak.

Longye looked at the two of them, sighed slightly, and then said seriously, "The waiter outside and that man wearing sunglasses must be the detectives you two hired, right?"

bride:"!!!"

bridegroom:"!!!"

As soon as Longye finished speaking, the expressions of the bride and groom changed instantly.

The two looked at each other in shock, unsure of what to say for a moment.

“I noticed this after seeing how you treated that waiter. You all obviously know that waiter. Especially you… Mr. Banba Raita, the way you looked at him wasn’t just scrutinizing, but also filled with intense anger.”

"And considering what he said later, you probably think of him as Hatsune Miku's gigolo, right?"

"As for the man wearing sunglasses, he must be the detective you hired to investigate this matter, right?"

Seeing Longye's certain expression, the groom gritted his teeth and shouted, "That's right! I know it's wrong to do this, but... wait a minute! What makes you think that person isn't a gigolo, but a detective hired by my wife?!"

Before Longye could speak, the bride said, "I'm sorry, he is indeed the detective I hired. I hired him to investigate whether you, who are usually so 'frivolous' with women, have any other girlfriends..."

"Because I was going to get my nails done for two hours, and I was worried you might hit on someone else during that time, I specifically asked that detective for help. That cake earlier, he might have deliberately thrown it at you..."

"what?!"

Just as Longye thought the two were about to start arguing and was about to step in to mediate,

The two of them suddenly burst into laughter, as if relieved of a great burden.

"We're really on the same wavelength, honey~"

"Yes... I'm sorry! I thought that blond guy was yours..."

"It's okay! How about we pretend this never happened? We'll call it a draw this time?"

"Ok!"

Seeing the two of them having such a good time, Longye's expression didn't relax at all; in fact, it became even more complicated.

Do we have a telepathic connection...?

They both seemed to love each other deeply, but neither believed that the other loved them deeply in return.

After clearing up the misunderstanding, the two smiled and looked at Longye.

"Thank you so much! If it weren't for you, this misunderstanding might have continued."

"You truly are worthy of being the Mori's son-in-law! You were able to observe so many things in such a short time! I'm truly impressed!"

Seeing that Longye's expression was becoming increasingly serious, the two of them couldn't help but be taken aback.

Wasn't the misunderstanding cleared up? Why does this boy still look so serious?

Longye looked at the two of them and said calmly, "You both said before that your upbringing was almost identical. Both of your parents died when you were young. You were both adopted children..."

"Um?!"

At that moment, the bride stared at Longye in shock, her face turning pale instantly.

The groom looked puzzled, seemingly not understanding the purpose of Longye's words.

"My intuition is sometimes particularly sharp. I had a vague feeling about it as soon as I saw you two."

"Have either of you had DNA testing done?"

As soon as Longye uttered those words, the bride's face turned even paler.

"DNA testing? Why would we need to do that?" The groom looked at Longye in confusion, scratching his head in bewilderment.

If Ryūno hadn't actually gotten the "detective thing" right earlier, he would have already pushed open the door and left, ignoring the boy's "strange remarks."

Just as he looked at his wife beside him, he found that she was staring wide-eyed and pale.

Seeing his wife suddenly become like this, he suddenly felt a sense of unease deep inside.

At this moment, Longye continued, "You two mentioned before that you share the same birthday and blood type, so sometimes even without saying a word, you can tell what the other is thinking..."

Even the somewhat slow-witted groom seemed to realize something, a few beads of cold sweat forming on his forehead: "What nonsense are you spouting?!"

Longye didn't speak, but silently looked at the bride.

“When I asked that detective to investigate, he found something. As babies, we were rescued from the same hotel that caught fire… A few days ago, I submitted our DNA to the testing agency, and the results should be available today.” The bride placed her hand on the groom’s shoulder and said, her voice trembling.

Upon hearing this, the groom's eyes widened, and his body trembled slightly.

"So... what was the result?"

"I haven't asked yet..."

Shortly after, under the praying gazes of the two, the bride dialed the phone, taking a deep breath.

"Hello. This is Hatsune Kamon, who previously commissioned you to conduct DNA testing. Have the results come back yet?"

"Oh, Ms. Hatsune Miku, right? The test results are in. The two DNA samples you submitted show that you are identical twins of opposite sexes."

"..."

Upon hearing this, the two collapsed to the ground, utterly devastated, like kites with broken strings, and wept bitterly.

Seeing this, Longye remained silent for a while, then slowly said, "Your meeting was indeed destined. You are both the people you love most and the people you are closest to. I hope you will not do anything that you or the other person will regret."

"You won't have any household registration issues if you're together. Furthermore, thanks to advancements in medicine, it's possible to detect genetic diseases in your child in advance..."

"This kind of immense mental pressure is indeed not something everyone can overcome. But the choice and decision-making power are always in your hands. No one has the right to tell you what to do."

After saying that, Longye walked out of the room.

Now that things have come to this, he has done all he could.

This kind of thing can't be kept secret; the two of them will find out sooner or later.

It's undoubtedly a better choice for both of them to know the news than for one of them to know it alone, as they can at least share some of the mental stress.

Regardless of what the two ultimately decide.

Should they go ahead with the wedding, treat each other as family, or stay together...?

……

Next to the dining table

Disguised as a waiter, Amuro Tooru found Kogoro Mouri and asked, "Excuse me, do you know where Mr. Banba Raita has gone?"

To wipe off the cake, he went backstage to find a clean towel, wet it, and then brought it back.

Strangely, there was no sign of Banba Raita anywhere in the entire venue.

At first, he thought Mr. Banba Raita had gone to the restroom and didn't pay much attention.

After a while, he realized something was wrong and came over to ask the groom's attendant, Lai Tai, where he was.

According to the pre-arranged plan, the client, Hatsune Kamon, should have already gone to get her nails done. Her task was to monitor Raita Banba and prevent him from making any inappropriate gestures towards the other ladies present...

Chapter 268 From Collapse to the Entrance

Looking at the waiter in front of him, Kogoro Mouri narrowed his eyes.

"They were both taken to that room over there..."
