The Daily Life of a Salted Fish Assassin in Anime Crossovers

However, thanks to his advanced disguise skills, Jiang Hang managed to conceal the subtle expressions on his face, ensuring that these people wouldn't notice anything about him.

Amidst this intrigue and power struggle, the sky gradually brightened, meaning they would soon be able to leave the mansion.

Chapter 296: Chapter 294: You should just confess and turn yourself in.

For Oojin Shuzen, this gathering of the seven detectives will likely be a memory he will never forget.

His interest in Karasuma Renya's treasure stemmed entirely from a major investment mistake he made a few years prior, which severely diminished his assets.

Although he had enough wealth to continue living at that time, it is easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but difficult to go from extravagance to frugality. After living a life of wealth for half his life, and even making a name for himself as a "food detective" in the detective world, he could not let go of his vanity.

During that time, he heard about the "treasure" of the wealthy man Karasuma Renya from Senma Kazuyo. After confirming that Senma Kazuyo was not joking with him, he immediately set his sights on the treasure and felt that it was a perfect opportunity for him to make a comeback.

After spending considerable effort to find the Twilight Villa, which was rumored to hide a treasure, he managed to buy the villa.

He originally thought that he and Senma Kazuyo, who was also a famous detective, would be able to figure out the answer to the riddle in a few months at most, but unexpectedly, the riddle actually stumped the two of them for two years.

As time went on, he realized that he was not only unable to repay his bank loans, but also had many more illicit loans that he was unable to repay, as he had been constantly robbing Peter to pay Paul.

When his social standing and the reputation he had worked so hard to achieve over half his life were about to be destroyed, the famous detective Da Shang Zhu Shan made a tough decision to create a big news story.

And this big news is this detective gathering.

In his eyes, the invited detectives had already become easy prey. After dinner, these so-called famous detectives would fall one by one into the trap he had set, and become suspicious and probing of each other.

If any of these detectives solves the mystery related to the treasure, he will not hesitate to kill them all and frame the "Phantom Thief Kid" for all the crimes.

In Daisho Shuzen's eyes, these so-called phantom thieves were the perfect scapegoats.

At the beginning, Oogami Kisuke considered many candidates to frame someone, such as Lupin III who travels all over the world, the Gentleman Phantom Thief who has not appeared for several years, and "Cat's Eye" who has also received a lot of discussion online. However, after considering all aspects, Oogami Kisuke finally chose Kaito Kid, a "classic phantom thief" who has been in the phantom thief world for eighteen years.

Therefore, for this gathering, he specially invited the famous detective Hakuba Saguru, who had participated in the pursuit of Phantom Thief Kid many times, and Jiang Hang, who had once stopped Phantom Thief Kid and was known as the "Kaito Kid nemesis". In the invitation letter he sent out, he did not mention who the invited people were.

In this way, even those close to these famous detectives would only know the location of the party they were attending, but would not know who else was participating.

After Jiang Hang and Bai Ma Tan, two people connected to Kaito Kid, died here, all he had to do was arrange the scene to cover up his presence and fabricate an alibi to prove that this "food detective" was enjoying food abroad during the party, and there would be no problem.

He had already planned that once he obtained the treasure, he would leave Japan with it as soon as the hype died down, and retire to Northern Europe or Canada. At most, everything here would simply become another urban legend over time.

What he didn't expect was that his plan had just begun when an accident occurred.

The bomb planting went smoothly, but before dinner, as Da Shang Zhu Shan checked the bomb, an inappropriate thought popped into his head.

Since these cars are going to be blown up anyway, wouldn't it be a waste if there was money or other valuables inside?

Thinking that it would be better to let him have his money rather than blow it up, Ooshiro wanted to take out the valuable and fragile items from the detectives' car before it exploded.

He initially checked Kogoro Mouri's car, only to discover that it was a temporary rental and the most valuable item inside was an opened pack of cigarettes.

He then went to inspect Jiang Hang's 86, and that's when he was caught in the trap.

Such luck was undeniably terrible. Fortunately, Da Shang Zhu Shan was quick-witted and realized that if he were to faint, all his plans would be in vain.

Using his own brain, before losing consciousness, Ooue Shuzen ran into the mansion. Before his last bit of strength was exhausted, he told the people rushing to the restaurant, "There's a bomb," and gave Chima Kazuyo a "plan as usual" look before passing out.

After being unconscious for more than ten hours, the effects of the drug on Da Shang Zhu Shan slowly wore off, and his consciousness gradually returned to his body.

Jiang Hang was right when he told everyone that although the drug was very potent, it was also an excellent sleeping pill for people like Da Shangzhu who suffered from insomnia due to anxiety.

When Da Shang Zhu Shan regained consciousness, he felt his body was exceptionally relaxed, as if he had returned to the age of twenty. Even his mind was thinking much faster than before.

Just as he realized he felt completely relaxed, he finally noticed something else.

He's in a helicopter right now.

Moreover, his body was tied up.

As he continued to recall, he remembered why he had fallen into a deep sleep.

Realizing this, his breathing quickened slightly, but he quickly regained his composure and continued to feign sleep in the same position.

He wanted to use his surroundings to first determine what had happened during his unconsciousness before deciding what to say next.

But then something else happened that made him want to vomit blood. Just after he decided to pretend to be asleep and observe his surroundings, someone patted his leg.

A man's voice came to his ear.

"Stop pretending to be asleep, Mr. Osaka. You are now suspected of illegally possessing firearms, gunpowder, dangerous drugs, and attempted murder. Your accomplices have already confessed to your crimes. I think you'd better confess and turn yourself in."

Chapter 297: Chapter 295: You didn't expect this, did you? The treasure of Twilight Villa is this!

The one speaking was naturally Jiang Hang; under his keen eye, there was almost never a time when these things could escape his notice.

They have all been transferred to the helicopter, and the Nagano Prefectural Police are now on their way to the Twilight Villa to gather evidence of the crimes committed by Senma Furuyo and Ogami Shuzen.

It has to be said that Hakuba Saguru's identity as the son of the Superintendent General of Police is really useful. With just one phone call, the Nagano Prefectural Police Station started to get busy, and several helicopters were dispatched.

The bridge leading to the Twilight Villa is currently undergoing emergency repairs to facilitate police access to the villa for investigation.

Upon hearing Jiang Hang's words and realizing that she had been exposed, Da Shang Zhu Shan slowly opened her eyes.

The first thing he saw was Jiang Hang sitting next to him.

Because of Jiang Hang's low profile, the few times he appeared on the front page of newspapers, it was either just a picture of his back or a picture of him looking down with a hat. This was the first time that Da Shangzhu Shan had truly seen Jiang Hang's real face.

The thought that Jiang Hang's existence might have been the reason for her failure made Da Shang Zhu Shan feel increasingly displeased with him.

After taking a deep look at Jiang Hang, as if wanting to remember his face forever, Ooue Shuzen looked at Senma Kazuyo sitting on his other side.

Compared to her own bound state, Chima Kazuyo was treated much better; at least her movements were not restricted in any way.

But judging from the look in Senma Kōdai's eyes at this moment, Ōgami Shūzen knew that this gathering had indeed failed completely without his knowledge.

This feeling only made him feel incredibly frustrated.

Even at this time, he had to endure the strange looks from the other detectives.

This meant that even though he had opened his eyes, he hadn't spoken a word yet.

In his mind, things had already developed to this point, which was very unfavorable to him, but it was not a dead end.

He knew that as long as he didn't speak now and prevented these famous detectives from analyzing and judging more from his words, there was still room for maneuver.

Things like the guns and drugs in the Twilight Villa can be dealt with. Even the things he did, like blowing up the bridge and trying to blow up other people's cars, can probably be settled with some money if a good lawyer is hired.

Seeing that Da Shang Zhu Shan had no intention of communicating at all, the detectives exchanged glances.

Sitting in the front row, Hakuba Saguru shook his head at Ogami Kizen first, "We famous detectives were born to prevent more tragedies from happening. Mr. Ogami, I never thought that you, a famous detective, would be completely lost in Karasuma Renya's treasure."

As he said this, Hakuba Saguru turned his gaze to the Phantom Thief Kid disguised as Kogoro Mouri beside him: "Mr. Mouri, what do you think? After all, you were the one who solved that riddle. This gathering has really impressed me."

Kaito Kid, continuing to feign Kogoro Mouri's arrogant and vain nature, simply scratched his head and laughed loudly: "Oh, not at all, I was just lucky to find the key to the riddle."

At this moment, Harufumi Mogi chimed in, "But that treasure is indeed something to be very interested in."

As he said this, he seemed to glance at Jiang Hang intentionally or unintentionally.

However, his little action went unnoticed by Da Shang Zhu Shan.

In fact, after hearing that the riddle had been solved, Da Shang Zhu Shan's gaze instantly sharpened.

Unlike Senma Kazuyo, who pursued the treasure because of her father's obsession, Oogami Shuzen initially only wanted to make money from the treasure. However, after a long period of fruitless searching, his heart was gradually blinded by this so-called "treasure".

"The riddle, you've solved the riddle? What exactly is that treasure?" His tone became unusually urgent.

He has sacrificed too much for this treasure.

He completely abandoned the composure that a nobleman should have and the professional ethics that a detective should have.

Even if he has to spend several years in prison, he's willing to do it as long as he can find out where the treasure is!

That was the treasure left behind by Karasuma Renya, the former chairman of Japan's largest conglomerate. He was a top tycoon with assets worth trillions of yen. If the value of that treasure exceeded one billion yen, he could return to his former affluent life. And if there were even more precious treasures inside, he would have no worries for the rest of his life!

"I bought the Twilight Villa. No matter what, legally it and everything inside it are my property. As long as the treasure is inside the Twilight Villa, it is also mine!" He roared at the people present.

Upon hearing this, Chima Kyoudai lowered her head. She knew that her former friend's heart had been corrupted by this so-called treasure, and even now, he was still thinking about it.

"Nobody wants to take that treasure from you."

Jiang Hang's voice came from beside him.

"You want to know what the treasure is, right? Then take a good look for yourself."

The next moment, Jiang Hang took out his phone and placed a photo in front of Da Shang Zhu Shan.

Da Shang Zhu Shan immediately widened his eyes and looked at the so-called "treasure".

The photo shows only an old wall, but there is a line of text clearly written on it.

"I would like to give this house and this view to the first person who finds this place," Da Shang Zhu Shan slowly read the words above.

Upon hearing this, Conan's lips twitched, seemingly surprised that Jiang Hang would pull this stunt at this moment.

He found this text not long ago in another castle where a murder occurred in search of treasure. He even took a picture of it back then, never expecting that Jiang Hang would use it at this time.

You're something else, Jiang Hang!

Jiang Hang subtly winked at Conan beside him, signaling him not to give anything away, and then continued speaking.

"Actually, this treasure has long been hidden in the name of Twilight Villa. After the riddle was solved, a secret room on the top floor of the mansion was opened. That room is the best place in the entire mansion to watch the sunset. And this is the treasure of Twilight Villa."

"How could that be? Do you know how much I paid and how much I sacrificed to obtain this treasure? How could the treasure I want be something so trivial!" The bound Da Shang Zhu Shan began to struggle violently, as if he was trying his best to deny what Jiang Hang had just said.

However, his struggles were to no avail.

“Once you get out of prison, you’ll have plenty of time to go there and enjoy the beautiful sunset,” Jiang Hang said calmly, putting away his phone as he looked at the hysterical Da Shang Zhushan.

Chapter 298: Chapter 296: Get a good night's sleep, my dear "lovers"

After the helicopter landed back on the ground, Da Shang Zhushan, pale-faced, was taken away by the police.

What Jiang Hang had just told him seemed to have robbed his life of all its color.

Even now, he still cannot accept the "facts" that Jiang Hang has stated.

On the plane, he desperately wanted to find a flaw in Jiang Hang's explanation of the riddle, but Jiang Hang simply told him the riddle that Conan had solved. Although the food detective had never been able to solve the riddle, after hearing the logic behind the solution, he knew that Jiang Hang had not lied to him.

He did indeed achieve his goal in holding this gathering.

Jiang Hang simply grafted the riddle-based clock onto another case at the end.

Meanwhile, Da Shang Zhu Shan, who was grappling with riddles and treasures, never imagined that Jiang Hang would have readily available material in his hands.
