The museum director, Tsugawa, also collapsed.

Maya Tachibana crouched down, grabbed Tsugawa's head with both hands, and spun him around suddenly.

With a snap, Tsugawa's neck was broken.

Having swiftly and cleanly killed two people, Tachibana Maya felt refreshed and invigorated.

The frustration of failing a mission recently vanished completely.

It wasn't that I lacked skill, but rather that...

Maya Tachibana put on rubber gloves and began cleaning up the scene, removing fingerprints and shoe prints, and used a knife to dig the bullet out of Tamada's wound.

After doing everything, she quietly left.

After a long while, another figure silently slipped in.

It was Hayashi Naoto.

He had been using the Golden Bee to monitor Tachibana Maya's movements.

After she killed the two targets and left, she sneaked in and absorbed the souls from the two corpses.

The souls of these two people are like fruit candies, one is coconut milk flavored and the other is orange flavored, sweet and delicious.

Lin Zhiren wrapped up his sins.

Then I left the library again.

This time, he took out his phone and called the police.

"Hello? Inspector Megure? I think I saw that female assassin, Tachibana Maya..."

A moment later, a police car with flashing lights sped up, and Inspector Megure arrived with a group of his men.

As Inspector Megure cordoned off the scene and searched for the killer, Naoto Hayashi fell into deep thought.

He had already remembered the case... no, the "library murder case" that would never happen again.

The eerie and terrifying old curator occasionally reveals his frightening face in the dark corridor, chasing after several children... those were his childhood nightmares!

He vaguely remembered the plot of the animation; it seemed that the old curator was secretly talking to someone, and when the curator discovered this, he killed the staff member and hid the body at the top of the elevator.

In the end, the truth was accidentally discovered by a group of juvenile detectives, and after a battle of wits and courage, they finally captured him.

The Conan team has done a great job!

However, now, it is clear that he has changed the plot.

This time, Conan wasn't involved, yet two people were still killed by an assassin...

Hmm. Even if Conan were here, he'd probably be completely stumped by this kind of unsolved case.

There wasn't even a suspect at the scene. Even if Conan had superhuman deductive abilities, he couldn't conjure up a murderer out of thin air.

Could it be that I also have the potential to become the Grim Reaper?

Not long after, Inspector Megure came out from inside, adjusted his hat, and looked serious.

"Lin-san, did you call the police? Are you sure you saw that female assassin, Tachibana Maya?"

Naoto Hayashi nodded and described the other person's disguise, saying, "I felt that the other person's face shape and body shape were somewhat familiar. After thinking about it for a while, I remembered that it should be her, so I immediately called you."

Police immediately went to the vicinity to check surveillance footage.

Naoto Hayashi asked curiously, "What crime did that killer commit that time to appear here?"

Inspector Megure said with a headache, "Yeah, she actually killed two people... This killer is too arrogant. She killed sharks one after another on Tsukikage Island. I didn't expect her to be so unrepentant. She's still killing sharks now."

"In addition, a large quantity of drugs was found in the library, with the fingerprints of two victims on them. It is clear that they were also members of a drug trafficking gang and were now silenced."

After a moment's hesitation, Inspector Megure whispered, "The drug dealers you encountered on Tsukikage Island were murdered. Their subordinate was this librarian, but unfortunately, the trail went cold here."

After exchanging a few more words, Inspector Megure hurriedly left to return to the Metropolitan Police Department to update the wanted poster for the killer, Tachibana Maya.

It is extremely dangerous to let such a murderous maniac go unpunished.

Naoto Hayashi shook his head and was just about to go home when he suddenly received a call from Conan.

As soon as the call connected, Conan's boastful voice came through the phone.

"Hey, bro, we were camping and treasure hunting today, and after solving countless mysteries, we actually found the real treasure!"

"You'd never guess that the place where the treasure is hidden also contains a bunch of jewels stolen by bandits, and even my father... um, Yusaku Kudo's unpublished novel manuscript!"

"Those jewel thieves were still following us, trying to steal the gems, but I managed to..."

"Conan," Naoto Hayashi interrupted, "I came to the library today and came across a murder case. Two people died."

Silence fell on the phone.

After a long pause, Conan's frantic voice seemed to pierce through the phone: "Aaaaaah! Naoto Hayashi, you bastard...!"

Chapter 48 Stop, Ah Zu, there are police everywhere outside!

Today is Sayuri Matsumoto's wedding day.

Early in the morning, Naoto Hayashi drove to the Mouri Detective Agency to pick up Ran, Sonoko, and Conan.

Conan was still furious and didn't give Naoto Hayashi a friendly look.

After all, he had just solved a case yesterday, caught the jewel thief, and even recovered his father's lost novel manuscript.

So much happiness, yet it was all ruined by that bastard Naoto Hayashi.

He went to the library and stumbled upon a murder case!

And there were two dead people!

Ugh, you dog!

Although it may be disrespectful to the deceased to say this, Conan genuinely believes that cases involving death far outnumber other types of cases!

The satisfaction and joy that comes from solving murder cases is the happiest thing in the world!

Conan was so angry he was biting his nails.

If I hadn't gone camping yesterday, but instead gone to the library with Naoto Hayashi...

Does that mean I'll be the one who solves the case in the end?

How awful!

At this moment, Lin Zhiren glanced at him and said casually while driving, "Don't even think about it, you won't catch the murderer even if you go."

Conan's heart skipped a beat: "Also? What do you mean? You encountered a murder yesterday but couldn't catch the culprit?"

Ran chimed in from the car, "Conan, you don't know yet, do you? Naoto ran into that female assassin, Tachibana Maya, yesterday. She's so ruthless; she killed two more people... The police have issued a warrant for her arrest, but unfortunately, no one knows where she's hiding now."

Conan then realized what was happening and felt much better.

The strange competitive spirit disappeared.

"So it was the Killer Shark, no wonder..."

Soon the group arrived at the hotel where the wedding was being held.

Many guests have already arrived, and the place is bustling with people.

Looking around, you can see that most of the people there are police officers, including Inspector Megure and many of his subordinates.

However, everyone took off their police uniforms today and put on elegant suits and formal wear.

Those who don't know the situation might think it's a gathering of Tokyo police officers.

After listening to other people's conversation for a while, Naoto Hayashi finally understood.

It turns out that the bride, Sayuri Matsumoto, is the daughter of Kiyonaga Matsumoto, who is the superintendent of the First Investigation Division of the Criminal Investigation Department of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, holding the rank of Superintendent!

He is undoubtedly a high-ranking figure in the Metropolitan Police Department, holding a high position and influence within the police force.

He's Inspector Megure's superior!

So when his daughter got married, the Metropolitan Police Department sent officers to attend.

Lin Zhiren looked around and suddenly a joke came to mind, so he couldn't help but laugh.

Conan asked curiously, "Naoto-nii, what are you laughing at?"

Naoto Hayashi waved his hand: "Why are you asking questions, kid? Go play somewhere else."

Conan grumbled and walked away.

What Hayashi Naoto was thinking was that this place was full of high-ranking officials from the Metropolitan Police Department, and it would be interesting if Kogoro Mouri also came.

Given his shameless nature of striking up a conversation with anyone, rumors might start circulating tomorrow:

The "Black Hand Detective" extends his reach deep into the Metropolitan Police Department, working with the police to create a powerful protective umbrella!

The reputation of famous detectives has been damaged.

Ran and Sonoko went to the bridal dressing room to visit the bride who was wearing her wedding dress.

Conan, taking advantage of his child status, shamelessly sneaked in.

Naoto Hayashi waited outside.

After all, he was not familiar with the bride, Matsumoto Sayuri, and he was only there to freeload off her.

However, he was still a little curious about the bride, so he released a golden bee to perch on the window outside the bride's dressing room and secretly observe her.

The bride was indeed beautiful, with an oval face, bright eyes, and her hair styled in an updo with a flower tucked into one side. Paired with round pearl earrings and an off-the-shoulder pure white wedding dress, she exuded an elegant and noble air.

The girls chatted happily as the bride's relatives and friends came in one after another to offer their blessings.

Suddenly, a tall, burly man pushed open the door and entered. He was nearly two meters tall, with a square face, a buzz cut, and a scar that ran through his eye!

Although he was wearing a suit, his overall demeanor was extremely stern and fierce, much like a gang leader.

Sonoko and Ran were startled, only to discover that the man was actually the bride's father, Inspector Kiyoshi Matsumoto!

Then, the very handsome groom, Toshihiko Takasugi, came in and spent some time cuddling with the bride.

However, Naoto Hayashi, who was outside, frowned.

He sensed a murderous aura emanating from the groom!

What the hell?

As the groom, who are you planning to kill at your wedding?

And do you want to take a look at who's in the venue?

Stop it, Zu! There are police everywhere outside!

Although Naoto Hayashi enjoys collecting souls, it's a bit of a downer to cause trouble in this setting.

Suddenly, Naoto Hayashi's expression changed.

His little bee noticed that the groom turned his back and secretly sprinkled something into the bride's drink can.

I rub!

Are you really going to take action now?

And... your target for the shark is actually the bride?!

You're such a beast!

Lin Zhiren frowned and slowly walked to the outside of the bride's dressing room, where he waited at the door.

The ceremony was about to begin. The door opened, and Xiaolan and the others came out. The groom followed behind and closed the door behind him.

Lin Zhiren's little bee saw from outside the window that the bride picked up the beverage can, tilted her head back, and drank it down!

Damn! Did you have to drink that fast?!

I didn't even have time to save you!

The bride's expression suddenly changed, the beverage can crashed to the ground, and she then vomited blood and collapsed.

Hearing the sound, the people who had just come out turned around to look, and Lin Zhiren pushed the door open forcefully without saying a word!

When Ran and Sonoko saw what was happening, they immediately screamed!

The scene was in complete chaos!
