Detective Conan: The Ultimate Growth Space

This was something Yuezi hadn't expected.

At this time, Daisuke Torakura took advantage of the chaos.

Daisuke Torakura told Etsuko, who had just graduated from university, that if she married him, he would help Etsuko's father's company.

If the company had gone bankrupt at that time, not only would Yuezi's father have been in trouble, but the company's employees would also have lost their jobs.

In order to save her father and the company, Etsuko had no choice but to marry Toracura Daisuke.

But Yuezi and the others only found out later.

The reason why Etsuko's father's company ran into problems was because Daisuke Torakura orchestrated the attack on it behind the scenes.

But by then it was too late.

Etsuko's father's company has also been acquired by Daisuke Torakura.

"For Yuezi's sake, I have been enduring my anger to get close to Torakura, but Torakura has always been very careful, and I have never had a chance."

Hamura Hideaki glanced at Tadokoro Toshiya and said, "I had heard that Mr. Tadokoro was a ghostwriter for Torakura."

"What? Mr. Tadokoro is Mr. Torakura's ghostwriter?" Kogoro Mori asked in surprise.

"That's right. The fantasy novels that Torakura is currently publishing were written by Mr. Tadokoro. Originally, I wanted to use this to increase Tadokoro's hatred for Torakura and make Mr. Tadokoro kill Torakura. However, after investigation, I learned that the reason Mr. Tadokoro became Torakura's ghostwriter was because Mr. Tadokoro's sister was seriously ill, and Torakura promised to treat Tadokoro's sister. Therefore, Tadokoro became Torakura's ghostwriter."

"Mr. Tadokoro, is what Mr. Hamura said true?"

“That’s right. My sister Kaori was born with a heart condition. When Torakura came to me, I immediately agreed to his terms. I’ll agree to anything as long as it can save my sister,” Tadokoro Toshiya said fiercely.

"Mr. Hamura, you killed Mr. Torakura. What will happen to Mr. Tadokoro's sister?" Ran asked worriedly.

"Mr. Tadokoro's sister is dead."

"What? How could this happen?"

“I only found out about this a while ago, and then I investigated. In order to control Tadokoro, Torakura bribed the attending physician and did not give his sister proper treatment. He just had her take medication to keep her from dying. Because of this, the treatment period was missed, and as a result, his sister died.”

"Mr. Tadokoro, really?" Kogoro Mouri asked in surprise.

“Yes, Kaori died a year ago, but Torakura blocked the news. He even told me that he sent Kaori to the United States for treatment so that I wouldn’t have to see my sister anymore,” Tadokoro Toshiya said angrily.

"Then how did you find out about this?" Kogoro Mouri asked again.

“I have to thank you for this,” said Hideichi Hamura with a smile.

"Thank u?"

Everyone was puzzled.

“During my investigation, I found a nurse who was very uneasy about this incident and even developed depression. I told her to tell Tadokoro about it and that as long as she got Tadokoro’s forgiveness, her mental illness would definitely be cured.”

"Could it be that the nurse contacted me a month ago because of you?"

"Don't expect me to have any good intentions. I originally hoped to use you to kill Hucang."

"Whatever your reason, I am very grateful to you for letting me know about Kaori," Tadokoro Toshiya said sincerely.

"I just didn't expect you to be so useless. I waited for a month and you still didn't make a move against Hucang. Today, Hucang hired a detective again, probably to investigate Yuezi's affair. Since there were a lot of guests today, Hucang was less on guard and gave me the opportunity. So, I took action myself."

Actually, this was something that Zhiyong hinted to Hamura Shuichi after he had figured out the situation.

Adding to the fact that the illusion was making Hamura Shuichi a little impatient.

"Shuichi, why did you do this? You know I've always loved you, I've never loved Torakura Daisuke. Why didn't you discuss this with me before you did it? What you're doing now is really not worth it," Torakura Etsuko cried.

"No, Yuezi, I'm willing to do anything to get you out of this misery. I didn't mean to hide anything, otherwise I wouldn't have killed Torakura in front of so many people."

"But……."

"Yuezi, don't overthink it. Just live a good life from now on," said Hamura Shuichi with a smile.

Yuezi's eyes were filled with tears, and she didn't know what to say.

……

Chapter 189 Spring Returns, Dream Awakens, All is Emptiness

Zhiyong only understands this now.

In the original series, even if Toshiya Tadokoro didn't kill Daisuke Torakura, Shuichi Hamura would still find an opportunity to kill him.

It's just that Toshiya Tadokoro acted too early.

This is why Shuichi Hamura ultimately benefited from the situation.

After Daisuke Torakura died, Etsuko Torakura inherited all of his assets.

Since Hamura Shuichi had acquired Torakura Etsuko's person, these properties also became his.

It can be said that in the original storyline.

Hideichi Hamura is the biggest beneficiary of this case.

Now, thanks to Zhiyong's use of the illusion, he has managed to get Hamura Shuichi to make a move against Torakura Daisuke ahead of time.

“Actually, Mr. Hamura, if you hadn’t made a move, I would have already killed Torakura by now,” Tadokoro Toshiya said quietly.

"what?"

Everyone was very surprised.

“It’s not that I didn’t want to do it; I just had been planning it all along. I was only just ready today. Mr. Mori’s arrival made me hesitate a bit, but the die was cast. I planned to make my move against Torakura as soon as he returned to his study, and then create a time gap to establish an alibi for myself. I just didn’t expect you to make your move before me,” Tadokoro Toshiya said.

Everyone present was extremely surprised.

“It seems that Torakura is truly guilty of heinous crimes. You two all want to kill Torakura. By the way, Mr. Doi, you introduced Mr. Tadokoro to Torakura. I also heard that many of the novels submitted to the Terror Times monthly magazine will appear in Torakura’s novels. Don’t you have anything to do about this?” Zhiyong asked.

Fumio Doi was already deeply affected by Daisuke Torakura's death.

Therefore, his psychological defenses collapsed after the illusion had only been active for a short time.

"That's right. Seven years ago, Torakura had already run out of creative ideas and couldn't write anything anymore. At that time, I had just lost money investing in stocks and was in debt for a long time. Torakura paid off the debt, but he asked me to hand over the novels I had submitted. He kept doing this, which made me very helpless. Later, I had no choice but to introduce Tadokoro to Torakura after learning about the Tadokoro family's situation," Fumio Doi replied.

"So it seems you also had a motive to kill, but now you can rest assured," Zhiyong said easily.

Conan thought to himself, "Don't worry my ass. Now that something like this has happened, and Daisuke Torakura is a celebrity, the media will definitely report on it. Fumio Doi is finished for doing something like this, and it will also affect the Terror Times Monthly."

After killing Daisuke Torakura, Shuichi Hamura was also taken into custody by Kogoro Mouri.

It's snowing heavily outside right now, and even after we called the police, they won't be able to arrive until tomorrow during the day.

After Daisuke Torakura was killed by Shuichi Hamura.

Tadokoro Toshiya stood there stunned. He never expected that all his preparations would be wasted in the end.

Daisuke Torakura was killed by someone else.

Although Daisuke Torakura's death made Toshiya Tadokoro feel very relieved.

However, the fact that Daisuke Torakura didn't die by his own hand and that his wish was fulfilled left him feeling extremely lost, as if he had suddenly lost his way.

Tears also streamed down Toshiya Tadokoro's face.

His sister's revenge has now been achieved, although he didn't have time to make a move.

But the demon was indeed dead.

Tadokoro Toshiya prayed in his heart that Kaori would live a happy life in her next life.

The situation is now very clear.

The police are unable to arrive yet due to road conditions.

Kogoro Mouri then detained Shuichi Hamura, waiting for the police to arrive the next day.

At midnight, the illusion of wisdom and courage can be used again.

Zhiyong stealthily entered Yuezi's room.

Yuezi was lying there crying, and it was unclear what she was thinking about.

Upon entering the room, Zhiyong immediately activated the illusion and deactivated invisibility.

Zhiyong came to Yuezi's side.

Etsuko suddenly sensed someone beside her, turned around, and saw that it was Hamura Shuichi.

"Shuichi, am I dreaming?"

Zhiyong pretended to say, "I beg Mr. Maoli to give me one night to spend with you. I need to go back before dawn."

"Shuichi."

Yuezi threw herself into Zhiyong's arms.

Perhaps thinking that their days were numbered, Yuezi didn't say anything.

Their clothes fell to the ground.

Yuezi kept demanding things from Zhiyong.

During the day, Zhiyong wasn't allowed to have his fill, so this time he went all out.

Etsuko just felt that Hamura Shuichi seemed stronger than usual today, and that he was making insatiable demands on her.

It gave Yuezi a feeling she had never experienced before.

As the two began to talk, Zhiyong turned off all the lights in the room.

That would mean the illusion was gone.

Under these circumstances, Etsuko would not realize that the other person is not Hajime Hamura.

After being strengthened, and due to the effects of his cultivation technique, Zhi Yong's body was simply beyond the capacity of ordinary people.

Therefore, in the middle of the night.

Yuezi was already beyond saving.

This time, Zhiyong enjoyed Yuezi from head to toe before taking her to the bathroom.

After thoroughly washing Yuezi.

He changed all the sheets in the room, and then put the ones that Zhiyong had used into his spatial storage.

Zhiyong then cleaned up all the possible traces left in the room.
