Detective Conan: I, with my magical powers, am going to destroy the world!

Upon hearing this, everyone present unconsciously swallowed, and when they looked at the masks on the wall, they felt the temperature around them drop several degrees.

Matsudaira Mamoru, who already had a deep belief in divination, asked with a worried expression, "Ms. Su Fang, these Shobul masks are so terrifying, and you still collected two hundred of them at once. Are you sure it's okay?"

Su Fanghongzi laughed: "You don't need to worry about that. I have already asked a powerful spiritual medium to seal all the curses on these masks."

"A medium?" Chi Chufeng curled his lip.

Su Fanghongzi didn't know who she had contacted, but judging from the thick black aura on her mask, she had clearly been fooled.

Conan suddenly remembered what happened on the way and turned to remind him:

"Actually, in the real world, human evil thoughts are far more terrifying than curses, right, Uncle Mori?"

"Oh, right." Kogoro Mouri realized and took out the threatening letter from his pocket. "We were stopped by a tree on our way here, and this piece of paper was stuck to that tree."

Upon seeing this, Katagiri Masaki couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, "Mr. Mori, I actually received the same letter three days ago as well."

"I received a similar letter too!"

"me too."

Upon hearing this, Matsudaira Mori and Nagara Haruka immediately spoke up.

"What?! You all received letters like this too?"

Upon learning that the other three guests had also received similar letters, Kogoro Mouri's expression grew increasingly serious; it was clear that this was no longer a simple prank.

“Our company also received a strange letter.”

A blond young man wearing sunglasses walked into the hall, holding an envelope in his hand.

"Touya?" Su Fang Hongzi gently scolded, "Why are you so late?"

The blond handsome guy in front of you is named Aikawa Touya, and he is currently one of the most popular rock musicians.

Because Lan Chuan Dongya's mother was once a maid in Su Fang Hongzi's household, after his mother passed away, Su Fang Hongzi sponsored his schooling and daily expenses, making him somewhat like Su Fang Hongzi's adopted son.

“I’m on a national tour, so I’m a little late. Please don’t mind.”

The blond-haired youth was not at all shy, and chuckled as he handed the envelope to Su Fanghongzi: "The letter does not indicate the sender's name, it only says that the recipient is Teacher Su Fang, and the handwriting is also very strange."

"This is to hide the handwriting, so it is written very neatly on purpose."

After getting permission, Uncle Mori opened the envelope and pulled out a threatening letter.

"Tonight, the Cursed Mask will drink blood. Messenger of the Cursed Mask, advance!"

"Ah?" The uncle's expression changed, and he said solemnly, "Ms. Su Fang, I think we should call the police!"

“I don’t think we need to take it to heart,” Su Fanghongzi said dismissively. “Ever since I started doing charity work, I’ve received threatening letters like this non-stop…”

Chi Chufeng remained silent.

This Ms. Su Fang is really courting death! Receiving so many threatening letters without any concern, what gave her the confidence and courage? The Cursed Mask?

"Alright, let's not dwell on these unpleasant things. I've already had dinner prepared. Please follow me to the living room!"

Su Fang Hongzi gestured to the group, leading them out of the masquerade hall and towards the restaurant.

As the doors to the masquerade hall slowly closed, the entire hall was plunged back into darkness.

The masks of Xiaobuer hanging on the wall suddenly emanated black energy, and the crescent-shaped eyes and smiles seemed to become increasingly distorted.

"This beef tongue soup is really delicious!"

"This bottle of red wine isn't something you can drink all the time."

"Conan, these steaks are delicious too, aren't they, 0.2?"

"Ok!"

The people dining in the restaurant did not notice the strangeness in the masquerade hall, and the dining atmosphere was exceptionally harmonious.

Su Fanghongzi raised her glass and said, "To be honest, I am very grateful to everyone for agreeing so readily to be guests at this charity gala that I am hosting. I would like to propose a toast to you all."

"Ms. Su Fang, please forgive my impertinence in asking this question."

After taking a sip of red wine, Katagiri Masaki couldn't help but ask, "How did you come up with the idea of ​​holding a charity gala for children who lost their families in car accidents?"

Chapter 442 The Inside Story Behind Motherly Love and Filial Piety

"Actually, I started doing charity work many years ago."

Su Fanghongzi looked on with a look of reminiscence and said:

"About twenty years ago, the maid who had been taking care of me was involved in a hit-and-run accident. Since then, I have been unable to remain indifferent to car accidents."

Upon hearing this, Aikawa Touya gripped his knife tightly and began cutting the steak in front of him with force.

What Su Fang Hongzi didn't notice was that at this moment, Lan Chuan Dongya's eyes were full of resentment.

Because the woman Su Fang Hongzi mentioned who hit someone and fled the scene was Lan Chuan Dongya's mother.

Since Lan Chuan Dongya's mother committed suicide, Su Fang Hongzi has been responsible for supporting his living expenses, and he has always been very grateful to Su Fang Hongzi.

However, after Aikawa Touya discovered the truth about the hit-and-run accident from his mother's diary, he felt nothing but endless hatred for Su Fang Hongzi.

According to the diary entries of Aikawa Touya's mother, the car accident that occurred twenty years ago happened on Aikawa Touya's birthday.

His mother stayed with him that night to celebrate his birthday, so it was impossible for him to hit someone and flee the scene.

Therefore, Aikawa Touya's mother did not commit suicide out of fear of punishment, but was forced out to take the blame by Su Fang Hongzi and was killed to silence her afterwards.

Every time Lan Chuan Dongya thinks about how his mother was killed by Su Fang Hongzi, and how he has treated her like a benefactor all these years, he wishes he could tear her to pieces!

"Excuse me…"

Ran Mouri hesitated for a moment, but couldn't help asking out of curiosity, "What happened to the person who took care of you later?"

She committed suicide!

Before Su Fanghongzi could answer, Lan Chuan Dongya said, "Actually, that woman is my mother."

"Is it your mother?!"

Upon hearing this, Ran Mouri was initially surprised, but then quickly cast an apologetic glance at Touya Aikawa.

If Ran Mouri had known earlier that the woman who caused the hit-and-run was actually Touya Aikawa's mother, she definitely wouldn't have asked any questions.

“My father passed away when I was very young. After my mother died, I lived with relatives and suffered a lot during that time.”

Lan Chuan Dongya stopped mid-sentence, raised his wine glass, and said with a face full of gratitude:

"Fortunately, I had Teacher Su Fang's help in various ways. I am able to be where I am today thanks to her guidance. Teacher, let me toast you."

Hearing what Lan Chuan Dongya said, Su Fang Hongzi seemed very pleased and raised her wine glass to take a sip of red wine.

What Su Fang Hongzi didn't know was that Lan Chuan Dongya had practiced countless times in front of the mirror in order to say these words without revealing any flaws in front of her.

Otherwise, just seeing Su Fang Hongzi's hypocritical face would make Lan Chuan Dongya want to vomit.

Su Fang Hongzi put down her wine glass, sighed with regret, and said, "Actually, besides taking care of my daily life, Dongya's mother was also my most important friend. Unfortunately, she went down a path of no return because of a momentary lapse in judgment."

Upon hearing this, Aikawa Touya unconsciously tightened his grip on the wine glass in his hand, but on the surface, his face was full of gratitude.

"In fact, many employees in Ms. Su Fang's company are like me, people who lost their family members due to car accidents."

"That's right. Teacher Su Fang's purpose in doing this is to help those who have become orphans due to car accidents become independent."

The female secretary, wearing glasses, nodded in agreement and subtly began to flatter Su Fanghongzi.

Upon hearing this, the straightforward Matsudaira Mamoru couldn't help but be moved and said, "That's really touching. I will definitely do my best to help with the charity gala next week."

"me too."

Katagiri Masaki looked at the wedding ring on his ring finger and nodded slightly.

"Actually, my wife also died in a car accident twenty years ago. I think my wife would be very gratified to be able to attend Ms. Su Fang's charity gala this time."

Listening to Katagiri Masaki's heartfelt words, Aikawa Touya felt particularly distressed.

According to information obtained from Aikawa Touya's subsequent investigation, the woman who was hit and killed by Suho Akako's car was actually Katagiri Masaki's wife.

If Lan Chuan 720 Dongya was still hesitant about whether to kill Su Fang Hongzi when he first learned the truth...

Upon learning that Su Fang Hongzi had invited Katagiri Masaki to attend her charity gala, Aikawa Touya could no longer tolerate it.

Su Fang Hongzi is nothing but a devil in human skin.

Over the years, Su Fanghongzi has been enthusiastic about charity work, not because she feels guilty, but because she uses charity as an excuse to embezzle charitable donations from kind-hearted people.

Thanks to her carefully crafted image as a philanthropist, Su Fang Hongzi has raised at least several billion yen in charitable donations over the years.

However, most of these charitable donations were pocketed by Su Fanghongzi, with only a very small portion actually used for charity.

Therefore, Aikawa Touya has made up his mind that he must kill Su Fang Hongzi, this devil in human skin, before the next charity gala begins.

Otherwise, if Katagiri Masaki, the victim, were to actually attend this charity gala filled with filth and sin, his fate would be far too tragic.

Chapter 443 Is this the start of seduction?

After dinner, all the guests gathered in the entertainment room.

Nagara Haruka admired the decorations and furnishings around her. Su Fang Hongzi's secretary, Inaba Kazuyo, came to Aka Chufeng's side and bowed respectfully.
