Detective Conan: The Ultimate Growth Space

Miwako hurriedly took him to the hospital.

But it was already too late.

On the operating table, Officer Youcheng departed forever.

Two people were staking out that spot.

Nara Sawaji and Shiba Ichiro discovered the person they were looking for: Odagiri Toshiya, the son of Chief Odagiri.

This put them in a bit of a bind.

In the end, Officer Youcheng died.

Since no evidence was found in Nino Yasushi's case, it was closed as a suicide.

After listening, Zhiyong asked, "So, you didn't investigate Toshiya Odagiri?"

Inspector Megure replied, "No, Shiba investigated Toshiya Odagiri privately, but found no connection between them. They also investigated Tamaki Nino. Although Nino might not be the murderer, he might be someone who associated with him. However, the investigation found that none of the people Nino had associated with had any contact with Tamaki Nino."

Zhi Yong asked in confusion, "Then what is the connection between this case and the current case?"

……

Chapter 468 Analysis (1/2)

Inspector Megure explained, "This case was closed at the time, but recently, Inspector Shiratori discovered that Miwako seemed to be secretly investigating something after get off work. Later, he learned that Miwako had been invited by Inspectors Narasawa and Shiba to continue investigating a case from a year ago."

Zhiyong asked, "Was it because they were investigating this case that things got into trouble?"

Inspector Megure nodded and said, "Yes, not long after they started investigating this case, Inspector Narasawa was shot and killed in a phone booth in Beika Park. After that, Inspector Shiba was also found dead in the underground parking lot. That's when we realized that this matter was related to what happened a year ago."

Zhiyong asked, "Since they were conducting a secret investigation, not many people should know about it, right? How would the murderer know?"

Inspector Megure replied, "It's a bit embarrassing to say, but what I want to say is that it might be someone connected to the police. Conan was present before Inspector Narasawa died. Inspector Narasawa was clutching his chest, where there was a police handbook. When Inspector Shiba died, he was also holding a police handbook in his hand."

Zhiyong also said, "Therefore, you believe that the murderer in this case is within your police force."

Inspector Megure nodded and said, "That's why I wanted to find someone outside the police force to conduct the investigation."

Zhiyong then asked, "Since they were someone from within the police force, they should have known about Officer Narasawa's action of clutching his chest before he died. But why was Officer Shiba also holding a police handbook when he died? Was the murderer really that careless?"

Inspector Megure was taken aback when he heard that.

He asked doubtfully, "Do you think this was done intentionally by the murderer?"

Zhi Yong nodded and said, "Yes, I think the murderer is not someone from within the police force, but he should have some connection with the police. For example, he could be a family member or someone from a department that has connections with the police."

Inspector Megure also said, "We also suspect that the murderer might be Inspector Tomonari's son, Tomonari Makoto!"

Zhiyong asked in confusion, "Officer Youcheng's son?"

Inspector Megure nodded and said, "Yes, after Inspector Tomonari's death, while keeping vigil for him, Tomonari pointed at Inspector Narasawa and the others, saying that they were the ones who killed Inspector Tomonari, and that he would never forgive them. Now, Tomonari is missing. According to our investigation, he was in that area before Inspector Narasawa and Inspector Shiba died, and he also attended the wedding banquet last night."

Zhiyong shook his head and said, "If it were Yu Chengzhen, he would have either acted long ago or waited until Sister Miwako and the others finished their investigation, which would have fulfilled his father's wish. But why did he kill two police officers and shoot Sister Miwako while the police were investigating?"

Inspector Megure asked, puzzled, "What do you mean?"

Zhiyong replied, "In my opinion, Youcheng is not the murderer. He may have become someone else's scapegoat. His current disappearance means either he discovered something was wrong and went into hiding, or he has already been killed and left a suicide note or something."

Inspector Megure asked, "Why do you think that?"

Zhiyong explained, "Judging from the murderer's actions, his plan was very meticulous. How could he be so careless as to let you discover his activities nearby so easily? Furthermore, judging from what you just said, Youcheng is a very impulsive person. Asking him to devise such a meticulous plan is not to underestimate his abilities, but I feel that he really couldn't do it."

at this time.

Officer Shiratori walked in.

Zhiyong continued, "Actually, if we're talking about suspects, Officer Shiratori should be the most suspicious."

Officer Shiratori asked in confusion, "What?"

Inspector Megure also said, "That's impossible?"

Zhiyong replied, "Miwako and the others were secretly investigating a case, so not many people knew about it. However, Officer Shiratori did know. Soon after, Officers Narasawa and Shiba had an accident. Moreover, Miwako's gunshot wound was at Officer Shiratori's sister's wedding celebration."

He paused for a moment, then continued, "If it's a coincidence, then one thing is a coincidence, but what about two or three? Can that still be a coincidence? Judging from the current situation, if this matter has absolutely nothing to do with Officer Shiratori, who can believe that?"

Officer Shiratori shook his head and said, "How could I possibly do that?"

Inspector Megure also said, "Yes, I know Shiratori very well; he would never do something like that."

Zhiyong added, "I didn't say he did it!"

Inspector Megure asked, "So what do you mean?"

Zhiyong said, "I mean, who among the people around Officer Shiratori would know about these things, or rather, who would you tell these things to?"

Officer Shiratori replied, "No? I never talk to my family about my work."

Zhiyong asked, "If it's not family, then could it be a lover, or... a doctor?"

Officer Shiratori suddenly said, "But no... Doctor, right, could it be him...?"

Inspector Megure asked, "Who are you talking about?"

Officer Shiratori replied, "I'm seeing a psychologist right now, Kyosuke Kazato. I only told him about this work-related matter when I was having counseling sessions. And as far as I know, Officer Narasawa is also receiving counseling from him."

Inspector Megure asked in surprise, "You mean Kyosuke Kazato?"

Officer Shiratori nodded and said, "Yes."

Zhiyong said, "If Kazato Kyosuke is a psychologist, then that makes sense!"

Inspector Megure asked, "Why?"

Zhiyong replied, "Before Officer Narasawa died, he clutched his chest. He probably wasn't talking about the police handbook. I think he meant the psychiatrist. Later, Kazato Kyosuke probably learned about the police handbook from Officer Shiratori. So, after killing Officer Shiba, he deliberately let Officer Shiba hold the police handbook, thus leading you astray in your investigation."

Inspector Megure exclaimed in surprise, "If it's him, that's terrible. Conan discovered today that someone was following Ran, and Mori and the others suspect that Ran may have seen the culprit's face clearly. If the culprit really is Kyosuke Kazato, and he is Ran's attending physician, then Ran is in danger."

Officer Shiratori shouted, "I remember now! We know the killer's only characteristic: he's left-handed. Kyosuke Kazato is also left-handed. He might be the real killer we're looking for. I'll arrest him right now."

Inspector Megure nodded and said, "Okay, take your men and go right away."

Chapter 469 Catching the Murderer (2/2)

Officer Shiratori left.

Zhiyong added, "Investigate his relationship with Renye Bao further. Since they are both doctors, they may know each other or have some kind of grudge."

Inspector Megure nodded and said, "If he is the murderer, then he may also be the one who committed the case of Nino Yasushi a year ago."

Zhiyong revealed the matter not because he wanted to forgive Kazato Kyosuke, but because he had a plan.

Since he dared to attack Miwako, even if he dies, he won't get away with it easily.

After discussing it with Inspector Megure.

Miwako is still in a coma.

The police have not yet notified Sato's aunt.

If Haibara Mi hadn't seen it by chance...

Zhiyong probably wouldn't know either.

However, Inspector Megure and his team couldn't be blamed for this, so he decided to vent his anger on Kyosuke Kazato.

Zhiyong didn't disturb her any further and went to Xiaolan's hospital room.

Mori, Eri, Sonoko, and Conan are all here.

I greeted them.

Zhiyong then asked, "Xiaolan, how are you?"

Zhi Yong entered the ward.

Xiao Lan looked at Zhi Yong.

She said uncertainly, "You are... Zhiyong."

Mori said happily, "Ran, you remember?"

Eri Kisaki was also very happy.

Xiao Lan replied, "No, it's just that when I saw him, the name suddenly popped into my head."

Everyone looked at Zhiyong.

Zhiyong felt extremely ashamed about this.

A possibility also came to his mind.

Back then.

Zhi Yong just learned about the function of the illusion.

that time.

On the one hand, it was out of curiosity about the wonders of space that I wanted to try out its functions.

On the other hand, he was also not too happy with Shinichi Kudo.

Zhiyong then used the illusion function in an attempt to change Ran's attitude towards Shinichi Kudo.

He didn't know if it would hurt anyone, so he didn't use it for too long at first.

that time.

The illusion is not very strong yet; people with strong mental power will be immune to it.

After using it for a few days.

Zhi Yong found it useless.

Ran's attitude towards Shinichi Kudo remained unchanged, and this behavior made him feel ashamed.

After all, using such methods against an angel like Xiaolan is a bit too despicable.

Therefore, it stopped.
