Solving cases with Detective Conan's science? No, I'm a cultivator!

Kogoro Mouri pursed his lips and said, "He ran off to do who knows what."

Kitagawa Taki looked in the direction of the clinic; Conan had probably discovered something.

……

Moon Shadow Island Police Station.

Conan found the old man.

"Uncle, how many children does the Aso family have?" Conan asked anxiously, panting heavily.

The old man recalled, "There were two, a son and a daughter. I remember his son had a serious illness when he was young and had been staying in the hospital to recuperate."

Conan's eyes widened in surprise. "Name? Where's your name?"

"It should be called Chengshi, right? It's written the same way as our female doctor's name, but the pronunciation is different!"

Conan gasped. It all made sense. Everything was correct.

Two years ago, when Asai Narumi first came to this island, Kameyama Isamu died.

The reason why Kameyama Isamu suffered a sudden heart attack was probably because of Asai Narumi!

Thinking of this, Conan quickly thanked the old man and hurriedly ran to the clinic.

But when he arrived at the clinic, the doors were locked.

He quickly asked the surrounding merchants, only to receive the reply that "Dr. Asai has left Tsukikage Island due to family matters."

Conan punched thin air. Asai Narumi, no, Asai Narumi, is definitely gone forever!

They've been tricked! They've all been tricked by Asano Minami!

Conan was utterly discouraged.

Asagi's cross-dressing fooled everyone.

and many more!

Suddenly, a terrifying thought flashed through Conan's mind.

Kitagawa Taki could easily see through Kaito Kid's disguise, so how could he not see through Asano Minami's disguise?

Hirata Kazuaki went into the music room in the middle of the night to get heroin, and Kitagawa Taki really didn't notice?

And the missing sheet music left behind by Keiji Aso was also found by Taki Kitagawa accompanying the old man. If Taki Kitagawa had intercepted that sheet music...

Conan thought about it carefully and felt a chill run down his spine.

Chapter 305 Conan, don't just spout nonsense!

On the ship back to Tokyo.

When Kitagawa Taki saw Conan's expression, he knew that the kid must have missed his target.

Conan gripped the railing with both hands, letting the sea breeze whistle against his face.

He is indeed feeling helpless right now.

Even knowing that Asano Minori was the real culprit, there was nothing he could do.

He couldn't produce any evidence, and he had already fled.

Conan clenched his fists as he glanced at Kitagawa Taki, who was chatting and laughing with Ran and Ai Haibara.

He's starting to suspect that Kitagawa Taki might be behind the cases he couldn't solve before.

Although I don't want to admit it, Kitagawa Taki's ability to solve cases is indeed very strong, as if he doesn't need to deduce at all.

It would be terrible if Kitagawa Taki became a criminal.

For some reason, Conan couldn't help but think of Professor Moriarty, Holmes' nemesis.

If Kitagawa Taki is Moriarty, then this "Sherlock Holmes of the Heisei era" can't just stand by and do nothing!

With that in mind, Conan walked over to Kitagawa Taki and the other two.

"Kitagawa...brother." Although he felt as uncomfortable as if he had swallowed a fly, he had no choice but to call Kitagawa Taki "brother" in front of Ran.

"What's wrong?" Kitagawa Taki asked Conan with a smile.

"I have something I want to talk to you about." Conan indicated that he wanted to talk to you alone.

"Row."

Kitagawa Taki probably guessed what Conan wanted to say. After greeting Ran and Ai Haibara, he followed Conan to a secluded corner.

"Alright, no one's around now, go ahead and say it." Kitagawa Taki leaned against the wall.

Conan immediately changed his expression, narrowed his eyes slightly, and said coldly, "Kitagawa Taki, I know what you did!"

Kitagawa Taki laughed, feigning ignorance, and asked, "What?"

"You've been secretly helping that Asahi!" Conan said, enunciating each word clearly.

"What? Who is Asano Minoru?"

Kitagawa Taki's signature style is that he knows nothing when asked.

"You and I both know perfectly well that you're committing a crime!" Conan knew that Kitagawa Taki would never admit it.

Kitagawa Taki chuckled and waved his hand, saying, "Sorry, I just couldn't help it. But I'm a law-abiding citizen, Conan, don't just spout nonsense!"

Seeing Kitagawa Taki like this, Conan wanted to punch him, but of course, he could only think about it.

"You'd better pray I don't catch you red-handed, otherwise..."

Conan had no choice but to utter harsh words.

Kitagawa Taki didn't take Conan's threat seriously at all. He picked at his ear with his little finger and said, "Are you done talking? If you're done, I'm leaving. Ran and the others are waiting!"

Although he was asking Conan, Kitagawa Taki didn't wait for Conan and turned around and left.

Conan was so angry that he was furious, especially after Kitagawa Taki's last words.

orchid!!!

We absolutely cannot let Xiaolan be with a guy like that!

But Conan has no other options right now.

Did you tell Ran that Kitagawa Taki and Haibara Ai have a close relationship?

Ran has no idea that Ai Haibara is actually an adult, so this definitely won't work.

We can only take it one step at a time.

Putting Ran aside for the moment, Conan then thought of his mother.

His mother was also quite close to Kitagawa Taki and had told him many times that Kitagawa Taki was a good person.

This time, he's going to show his mother what Kitagawa Taki really is!

……

the other side.

Kitagawa Taki returned to the bow of the ship. Ran had been called away by Kogoro Mouri, leaving only Ai Haibara behind.

Ai Haibara asked, "Did Shinichi Kudo discover the truth?"

"Ai, not bad, so you knew too." Kitagawa Taki smiled, which was an indirect admission.

Ai Haibara rolled her eyes. "Don't treat me like an idiot."

Kitagawa Taki has already said that Asai Narumi is a man dressed as a woman.

"That guy probably doesn't have any evidence, right?"

"Heh." Kitagawa Taki didn't care at all: "If he had evidence, he wouldn't have come to me like this. He's just saying a few harsh words."

Ai Haibara nodded; she knew that too, but just wanted to confirm.

……

Fujimine's family.

When Conan returned home, Yukiko Fujimine was already having dinner.

Yukiko Fujimine put down her chopsticks and said, "Shinichi, why are you back at this hour? You didn't even call ahead. I didn't cook for you, so you had to order takeout."

Conan had no appetite at all. He waved his hand and said, "Let's put eating aside for now, Mom. I have something to tell you."

"What is it? Tell me!" Fujimine Yukiko said in a light tone.

Conan said in a deep voice, "It's about Kitagawa Taki."

"Hmm?" Upon hearing that it was related to Kitagawa Taki, Fujimine Yukiko hurriedly asked, "What happened to Taki?"

Seeing Yukiko Fujimine's concerned expression, Conan felt a little uncomfortable. He frowned and said, "He's fine, but things might change in the future."

Yukiko Fujimine breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "What do you mean by 'maybe in the future'? Shinichi, what are you talking about?"

Conan recounted in detail to Fujimine Yukiko what had happened on Moonshadow Island over the past two days.

"So, Mom, you should stay away from that guy from now on!"

Yukiko Fujimine was having a headache; she didn't want to see Shinichi Kudo and Taki Kitagawa at odds.

She didn't doubt what Shinichi Kudo said, and she felt quite helpless about Shinichi Kudo's righteous indignation.

In her opinion, those four guys who sold heroin and killed entire families were the real demons.

She would clap and cheer if she were to die a good death.

Therefore, she actually felt that Kitagawa Taki did the right thing.

Of course, the influence of the "lover's filter" cannot be ruled out. She and Kitagawa Taki are currently in a very sweet and loving relationship!

All we can say is that Conan was a step too late. If this kind of thing had been revealed at the very beginning, perhaps Fujimine Yukiko might have changed her opinion of Kitagawa Taki.

"Shinichi, aren't you a huge fan of Sherlock Holmes?" Yukiko Fujimine asked.

"Huh?" Conan was confused.

Yukiko Fujimine said seriously, "Didn't Holmes release those two murderers in 'Grange Park' and 'The Devil's Heel'?"
