Conan: Above all force, there is truth!

Thinking of this, Xiaolan nodded and said, "Then you must be careful!"

"Don't worry~ Don't you know how formidable your husband is~ Be careful... it's that guy who should be watching." Ryuno smiled, patted Ran's head, and then turned and walked out of the office.

As he stepped out of the building, a glint of light flashed in Longye's eyes.

The reason he personally captured the remaining prisoner wasn't to ensure the three of them made it safely into prison...

According to Japanese criminal law, the three men's "kidnapping" offense carries a maximum penalty of three months to seven years in prison.

Without a doubt, once they get out, they will most likely choose to retaliate again.

Although he was not bloodthirsty, he also lacked the kind of love that Shinichi Kudo had—'even bad people, I can't watch them die'.

Since a feud has already been formed, there is no reason to let the tiger return to the mountain.

As the saying goes, to cut the weeds, you must pull them out by the roots!

Chapter 413 The Truth Doesn't Need to Be Two!

Five minutes later, Tatsuno arrived on his motorcycle at the abandoned building in Sudancho, which the skinny man had mentioned.

Shortly after entering the building, Longye found a man setting up recording equipment in a room.

The man was wearing a blue suit jacket, and like the two men from before, he was also wearing a hat, mask, and sunglasses.

Upon seeing Long Ye, the man was slightly taken aback.

Before the man could react, Longye stepped forward and punched him unconscious, then carried him out of the building.

While having Xiao Jia record the man's 'biological information,' Longye rode his motorcycle back to the law firm with the man in tow.

When Longye returned, two police cars were already parked downstairs at the law firm.

It seems that Inspector Megure and the others have already arrived.

Shortly after, seeing Ryūno carrying someone into the office, Inspector Megure and the others immediately stepped forward. "Ryūno, is this the other prisoner?"

Because it was Tatsuno, Inspector Megure and the others did not blame him for going to arrest the last criminal on his own.

Longye nodded and put the person on the ground.

When Eri woke up, she looked closely at the man that Ryūno had carried back and frowned. “This man was sued by his wife before. He’s an abusive man. He lost badly to me in that divorce case.”

"The skinny guy is a gambler, and the fat guy is a cheating man..."

Upon hearing this, everyone understood the motives behind the crime.

No wonder the skinny man earlier said they were a 'victims' association'; all three of them had lost in court to Eri Kisaki.

In order to vent their anger and seek revenge, they conspired to kidnap Eri Kisaki and film a video of her 'apologizing' and post it online.

After reviewing the entire incident, Inspector Megure and his team took the three criminals into a police car and prepared to return to the Metropolitan Police Department.

According to usual practice, they should take Eri Kisaki and Tatsuno back to the Metropolitan Police Department to give statements.

But when Inspector Megure and his team learned that Tatsuno and the others were going to see a movie together that night, they immediately said that they could come to the Metropolitan Police Department to give their statements tomorrow.

Everyone watched as Inspector Megure and the others left.

Longye glanced at the backs of the three prisoners and smiled slightly.

Although he had already marked these three people as 'dead,' it was clearly not the best time to make a move in order to avoid causing further trouble.

Anyway, he had already had Xiao Jia record the three people's biological information, and they didn't have much time left...

After Inspector Megure and the others left, Kogoro Mouri and Conan rushed over.

Seeing that Eri Kisaki was alright, Kogoro Mouri breathed a sigh of relief.

"Ryuno, Ran, thank you so much this time! If you hadn't discovered it in time, Mom would probably be..." Eri looked at Ryuno and Ran gratefully.

Xiaolan waved her hand and looked proudly at Longye beside her: "Mom, if you want to thank someone, then thank Longye properly~ He noticed something was wrong and brought me back!"

“When I was taking the elevator downstairs, I noticed two suspicious men, one of whom was pulling a large suitcase…” Longye explained.

After hearing Ryuno's explanation, Eri Kisaki once again expressed her gratitude to Ryuno.

Kogoro Mouri also stepped forward and patted Tatsuno on the shoulder.

Although he didn't say anything, everyone could feel Uncle Mori's 'silent gratitude'.

Seeing how well things were going, Xiaolan glanced at the time and immediately said, "It's almost time for the movie to start! Mom, why don't we go see the movie already!"

Hearing this, Eri glanced at the time and nodded. "Well, that's the only way. Although there's still a lot of work to be done, what can we do when something like this happens today?"

"Attorney Kiyoshi, don't think about work today. After something like this, you need to change your mood, right?" Kuriyama Midori added from the side, "Like you and your husband, I'm also planning to go to the movies with my best friend today."

Upon hearing the words "husband and wife," both Kogoro Mouri and Eri Kisaki blushed slightly.

The next moment, Kogoro Mouri glanced at Eri Kisaki beside him, scratched his head, and said, "Yeah, Eri... don't even think about work today..."

"Hmm..." Eri Kisaki said, blushing and looking down.

Upon seeing her parents' appearance, Xiaolan happily took Longye's hand and smiled sweetly.

……

halfway

While Ran and Eri were talking, Conan walked up to Ryuno and whispered, "Looks like Uncle has really figured it out today."

Ryūno looked at Conan with a puzzled expression.

"Actually, the uncle was originally planning to decline your invitation because he didn't really 'like' the content of that movie."

"Oh? What happened to the movie?"

Conan glanced at Kogoro Mouri in the distance and chuckled, "Although the main character is his favorite Yoko, she plays a beautiful and capable female lawyer."

"Her boyfriend used to be a policeman, but now he's a third-rate detective, and he's been wrongly accused of murder."

"In the end, the female lawyer, relying on her reasoning, helped the detective clear his name of murder. At the end of the film, the detective hugged the lawyer tightly and said to her with deep affection, 'You really are my true love!' It's a tear-jerking romantic thriller."

Upon hearing this, a smile appeared on Longye's lips.

No wonder Uncle Mori didn't like this movie.

This isn't just a movie; it's a true reflection of his life!

Two hours later, the movie came to an end.

The expressions on everyone's faces were varied.

Kogoro Mouri smiled excitedly at Eri Kisaki beside him, "Great! That third-rate detective wasn't such a bad person after all! And Yoko's acting was absolutely fantastic!"

Eri Kisaki, her face serious and her eyes gleaming, said, "What?! As a lawyer, all she does is shout 'I object! I object!' That will only leave a bad impression on the judge, making it seem like she's constantly being hit where it hurts! Besides, she didn't even get the presiding judge's permission, yet she dared to act on her own..."

Xiaolan looked at the two of them helplessly and sighed.

The two of them were finally in a good mood today, but after watching the movie, the mother's eyes were filled with 'lawyer' and 'reality'.

Conan, standing to the side, stared silently at the large screen in front of him, arms crossed, without saying a word.

The lawyer, played by Yoko, says this at the end: "No matter what, there don't need to be two truths!"

When Conan solves cases as Kogoro Mouri, he sometimes gets carried away and says in Kogoro's voice, "No matter what, there's only one truth!"

This movie clearly 'borrowed' that phrase.

Ryūno glanced at Conan beside him, amusement on his face.

Chapter 414 Red Siamese Cats Are Not Good Cats

Early next morning

In order to complete yesterday's statement, Ryuno and his group went to the Metropolitan Police Department's First Investigation Division.

Since the case is related to Eri Kisaki, Kogoro Mouri and Conan, who were not directly involved in yesterday's incident, also came.

After Ryūno and the others finished giving their statements, Inspector Megure nodded and said, "Alright, that's enough for now. Thank you for your hard work!"

Seeing this, Kogoro Mouri quickly looked at Inspector Megure, "Inspector Megure, may I ask about those three criminals...?"

Ryūno and the others also looked at Inspector Megure, wanting to hear his answer.

Inspector Megure adjusted his hat and said seriously, "Under normal circumstances, they should be imprisoned for about 3 to 5 years... But don't worry, after the three of them are released, I will definitely send someone to monitor them for a period of time."

“Inspector Megure…” Kogoro Mouri clenched his fists slightly, without saying a word.

As a former police officer, he knew how troublesome it was to be targeted by such criminals.

But he also understood that Inspector Megure's actions were probably the limit of what he could do for them.

Ryūno and the others looked at Inspector Megure with complicated expressions.

Clearly, Inspector Megure understood that, judging from the motives of these three individuals for their crimes, they were very likely to seek revenge against Eri Kisaki and the others after their release from prison.

According to regulations, unless there are special circumstances, Inspector Megure actually has no right to 'send someone to monitor' these people after their release from prison.

To put it bluntly, he decided to do this entirely because of his friendship with Kogoro Mouri and Eri Kisaki.

While everyone remained silent, Eri Kisaki frowned and thought, "It might not be 3 or 5 years... If they find a good lawyer during the trial and perform well inside, they might be able to get out soon."

Hearing this, Ran looked at Eri with concern, "Mom..."

Kogoro Mouri and Inspector Megure also looked at Eri Kisaki with concern.

If those three are truly determined to take revenge on everyone after their release from prison, then it will indeed be a very troublesome situation.

After all, the police can't keep an eye on these three people forever.

For a moment, the office was completely silent.

"Don't worry, even though I said that, I doubt any lawyer will be willing to defend them. After all, I'm a lawyer too~" Eri Kisaki said with a smile.

"But Mom..."

Before Xiaolan could finish speaking, Longye said, "Don't worry about Xiaolan. We can have Auntie stay with us for a while until the three of them come out. I'll find her some bodyguards then."

Upon hearing this, Eri covered her mouth and laughed, "Hahaha~ Ryūno, Auntie is very grateful to you, but you're exaggerating a bit too much~"

"No, that's not an exaggeration at all! Eri, don't worry, I'll protect you!" Kogoro Mouri turned to look at Eri Kisaki, his expression extremely serious.

"husband…"

Seeing how worried everyone was about her, and even Kogoro Mouri acting out of character, Eri Kisaki couldn't help but feel a little moved.
