The Daily Life of a Salted Fish Assassin in Anime Crossovers

Jiang Hang then steered the conversation directly to Kogoro Mouri's wife.

"I remember, Mori-san, you and Attorney Kisaki have been separated for many years?"

“It’s been about 10 years,” Kogoro Mouri shrugged.

Jiang Hang nodded.

"I think you've been working hard lately and suddenly became a famous detective in just a few months. Now that you're a famous detective, you feel that you're worthy of Attorney Fei, who is now known as the Queen of Law. So you've probably been trying to reconcile with Attorney Fei these past few months."

"Who would think that? I don't care about these things." Kogoro Mouri quickly denied the possibility, saying that as a grown man, how could he possibly take the initiative to seek out his wife?

Jiang Hang directly pointed out the flaws in the other party's words.

"But aren't all those wild thoughts you have at night just because you don't have anyone by your side to relieve your stress?"

As Jiang Hang said this, he patted Kogoro Mouri on the shoulder.

“I know you’re a real man, Mori, but it’s precisely because you’re a real man that you want to take all the responsibility on your own.”

“But you work so hard and you always encounter murder cases. You spend your energy solving them, but when you get home, there’s no one to comfort you. Your negative emotions accumulate and you can’t vent them, so you can only numb yourself with alcohol. Over time, it’s normal to start to doubt yourself.”

"What do you mean you think your daughter and Conan are more useful than you at the crime scene? Isn't your daughter the product of your upbringing and the influence of you and Attorney Kisaki?"

"That brat Conan went through the Kudo family first, then you, brother. I also have some connections with his uncle, so I sometimes give him pointers. But since he lives in your house, he's obviously more clever because of your influence."

"But he's still just a kid and likes to show off. If you, Mori, had gone on the picnic with them a week ago, with your experience by his side, Conan wouldn't have suffered such a serious injury."

"So, in the end, it's because you put too much pressure on yourself. I guess it's because you see that Attorney Fei's nickname 'Queen of Lawyers' is too well-known, so you want to surpass her reputation as soon as possible, make her realize your own abilities, and then make her submit to you and go home on her own initiative."

"When you weren't under pressure before, you seemed to often enter that 'dormant' state, right? Later on, the more you wanted to prove yourself, the harder it became for you to enter that dormant state?"

"This is putting pressure on yourself, which prevents you from reasoning with a purer mindset."

Jiang Hang's eloquent speech successfully made Kogoro Mouri, who initially only had a few ideas, fall into deep thought, and the more he thought about it, the more reasonable it seemed.

Although Jiang Hang's words were somewhat blunt, it does seem to make sense.

When he first became famous, he would visit Kogoro Sleeping almost every two days.

But after a month or two, once I made a name for myself, the frequency of that state began to decrease.

Moreover, he genuinely wanted to surpass Eri Kisaki in his achievements as a detective, to show her what he had accomplished.

Perhaps subconsciously, he was in such a hurry because he had this thought.

Kogoro Mouri gave Jiang Hang a grateful look.

As expected, it has to be my brother Jiang Hang.

This kind of thing might be easy to understand, but as someone involved, he couldn't understand it so easily.

Seeing Kogoro Mouri's grateful expression, Jiang Hang waved his hand.

"Actually, Brother Mori, you really need to pay more attention to Attorney Ki. Look at you, you've only been famous for half a year, and you've already accumulated so much pressure. Think about Attorney Ki, how much pressure has she accumulated in order to maintain her undefeated reputation?"

Seeing the worry appear on Kogoro Mouri's face, Jiang Hang knew that his tactic of diverting attention had worked.

I'm still as kind-hearted as ever.

Jiang Hang looked at the two newly refreshed four-star commissions in his commission column and muttered to himself.

"Let Kogoro Mouri and Eri Kisaki reconcile" and another completely opposite "Let the two of them get a complete divorce".

The fact that the system could focus on these two completely opposite goals for a four-star commission proves that completing this commission is indeed not easy.

If he were a womanizer who didn't discriminate between meat and vegetables, he would probably be overjoyed at the request and exclaim that it was authentic.

Unfortunately, Jiang Hang was a pure-hearted warrior who never intentionally sabotaged other people's relationships...

Well, the female friends in Yoshino Kiharu's original story shouldn't be considered as romantic partners.

After all, in the end of the story, she abandoned all her girlfriends to explore new territory.

In short, although it's not a five-star commission, Jiang Hang wouldn't mind getting the reward of a four-star commission for free.

He even started thinking that if he could get Kaito and Aoko, and Hattori Heiji and Toyama Kazuha together in advance, they might be able to get a commission too.

Moreover, Heiji Hattori's confession history is quite tumultuous; it must have required at least a five-star request.

Unfortunately, the system didn't respond. Maybe he'll have to appear in front of Hattori Heiji with similar thoughts again before this request will come up.

Seeing Kogoro Mouri lost in thought, Jiang Hang waved his hand in front of him.

"You can think about these things slowly when you get back, brother."

"Let's solve this case first. Let go of all your worries and focus on this case. Let me witness the brilliance of the sleeping Kogoro."

Sure enough, after being provoked by Jiang Hang, Kogoro Mouri, who had been doubting himself, was suddenly full of energy again.

"That's right, Liuli is still a suspect in this case. She's a top star now, we can't let her get involved in these messy scandals!"

It seems that Ruri Amashiro, whom Yuno Koharu called a "healing female celebrity," is actually Kogoro Mouri's former classmate.

Jiang Hang touched his chin.

I've heard that Kogoro Mouri goes into overdrive when he encounters cases involving people close to him. I've never actually seen Kogoro Mouri in his overdrive form up close. I hope Kogoro Mouri at full strength will be powerful enough.

Otherwise, he would have to use his special tranquilizer dart on Kogoro Mouri, doing what Conan usually likes to do.

Compared to Conan's inefficient anesthetic injections that only take ten minutes to wake him up, Jiang Hang's anesthetic injections are high-dose, enough to make someone sleep for seven or eight hours without even realizing it.

As Kogoro Mouri introduced his former classmate, now a big star, to Jiang Hang, the two of them walked into the villa.

Not long after he stepped through the gate, Shizuka Sakaki came over to report to him with the intelligence she had just obtained.

Seeing Kogoro Mouri right next to Jiang Hang, she hesitated for a moment.

After all, what she just asked was indeed somewhat unfriendly to Kogoro Mouri.

However, Kogoro Mouri simply waved his hand, indicating that he didn't care about these things.

The previous difficulties were nothing to him, and he was insignificant. As long as he could find the truth of the case, no one would doubt him anymore.

So Shizuka Sakaki sincerely recounted the detailed events she had learned from the crew members, including what each person had said and their expressions at the time.

"During the filming of the scene where the body is discovered, the deceased suddenly asked Mr. Mori, who had not read the script, a question. He probably wanted to see if Mr. Mori could analyze the situation at the scene to figure out who the murderer was."

"Then Mr. Mori gave the wrong answer, which provoked the dead man's laughter and ridicule."

"Then he was reprimanded by Ruri Amashiro, and the two got into an argument. During the argument, he accidentally stepped on the body of the supporting actor Nobuharu Nagumo, who was playing a corpse, which escalated the conflict further. Finally, he got into a physical altercation with Kasumi Namihara, an actress who was close to Nobuharu Nagumo, and Nobuharu Nagumo's father, Akira Nagumo."

"The deceased suddenly uttered some threatening words, forcing the director to abruptly interrupt filming and have everyone rest for half an hour before resuming shooting."

Chapter 524: Chapter 520: Kogoro Mouri's Deduction

Jiang Hang looked at Shizuka Sakaki and asked her to directly state what the so-called "threatening words" the deceased had said to the crew members before his death actually were.

"Let me, the person involved, speak directly about these matters," Kogoro Mori nodded to Jiang Hang.

During filming tonight, he was challenged by the deceased, who suddenly changed his words and demanded that he deduce the truth of the case.

Having not read the script and distracted by the presence of his beautiful old classmate on set, Kogoro Mouri naturally couldn't reveal the so-called truth.

Then he was mocked by the deceased, who said that the so-called famous detective was nothing special. Then he went on to attack Kogoro Mouri's old classmate, Ruri Amashiro, saying that she should have found some more famous stars instead of recommending such an incompetent detective to the production team.

At this point, Shizuka Sakaki added a sentence.

"Mr. Mori also forgot to mention that Yoshiteru Kazami mentioned your name, Jiang Hang, at that time, saying that whether it was the Sleeping Kogoro or the Hawkeye Detective, they were all just empty names and could not compare to the detective he had helped design and personally played."

Hearing Shizuka Sakaki's words, Jiang Hang's lips twitched slightly.

It's one thing for you to criticize Kogoro Mouri, but why do you have to drag me into it as well?

Although he was indeed known as one of the Tokyo Twins alongside Kogoro Mouri in the first few months after he became famous, his recent involvement in cases and appearances on the news and television have made him almost as popular as Shinichi Kudo before his disappearance.

He hadn't heard the term "Gemini" for quite some time.

Now that Yoshiteru Kazami is dead, Jiang Hang has no chance to do anything he wants.

After all, respect for the dead is paramount.

He muttered this to himself.

Jiang Hang continued listening to Kogoro Mouri continue.

Then, when Yoshiteru Kazami was criticizing Kogoro Mouri, Kogoro Mouri's old classmate stood up for him.

"I was very close to Liuli when I was in middle school, but we haven't seen each other since then. I never expected that I would be able to make a guest appearance in this TV series. It was actually Liuli who recommended me to the production team."

Ruri Amashiro's status is much higher than that of Yoshiki Kazami, an idol who was once out of fashion but easily made a comeback through luck. Therefore, her tone is naturally more intense when defending Kogoro Mouri.

During the argument, Ruri Amashiro mercilessly called Yoshiteru Kazami a washed-up idol, a childish brat who gets entangled in trivial matters and can only gain satisfaction by belittling others to increase his own popularity.

Hearing these words, Jiang Hang stroked his chin.

Wasn't Yu Cheng Liu Li supposed to be a healing-type celebrity? It turns out that these are just public personas. She's quite good at swearing, isn't she? If she swears a few more times, she could become a sharp-tongued celebrity.

Of course, according to Kogoro Mouri, it was because Ruri Amashiro cared about her old classmate that she said those things.

In short, it was Yushiro Ruri's words that completely ignited Kazami Yoshiteru's anger.

Just as Yu Cheng Liuli said, he threw a tantrum on set, even smashing several props prepared by the crew, and in the process, he stepped on Nagumo Nobuharu, who was playing a corpse.

Then, because Nagumo Nobuharu, who was lying on the ground, subconsciously cried out, he went a step further and kicked him, saying, "How can a dead person cry out? If you're playing the role of a corpse, then do your job properly."

Then another actress, Kasumi Namihara, couldn't stand it anymore and went up to criticize Yoshiteru Kazami for going too far.

Kazami Yoshiteru then brought up Namihara Kasumi's past scandals in front of everyone, and even mentioned whether she was now planning to get involved with Nagumo Nobuharu, a third-rate actor.

Next is Nobuharu Nagumo's father, Akira Nagumo, a relatively well-known veteran actor in the industry. Although he has never played a leading role, he has played major supporting roles in many works and is considered a highly regarded supporting actor.

Seeing his son being stepped on, he grabbed Yoshiki Kazami by the collar, telling him to show some respect for others.

As a result, Yoshiki Kazami, who was grabbed by the collar, directly revealed to Nobuharu Nagumo that after joining the film crew, the old man, Akira Nagumo, had been having a rendezvous with a lover much older than him almost every night, and that he already had some clues about the lover's identity.

After mocking the actors in the crew, he also said that if they didn't have eyes, he would spread all the gossip.

It wasn't until this point that the director of the film crew finally couldn't sit still any longer.

Even if Yoshiaki Kazami's father is an investor, he shouldn't act like this.

We're all celebrities, and everyone who's gotten this far has some secrets they can't hide. If this guy really exposes all of these things, then no one will be willing to make a cameo appearance in this show that relies on celebrity cameos to gain attention.

After all, who would be willing to do something like this—just a cameo appearance here only to have their negative news exposed?

So they had the staff pull the actors apart, and then let the crew rest for a while before resuming filming.
