Detective Conan: The Ultimate Growth Space

While it can't be said that good martial arts skills equate to strong tracking abilities.

But at least a master like Makoto Kyogoku shouldn't have any problem tracking ordinary people, right?

Of course, even if Kyogoku Makoto's claim is true, it is still understandable.

After all, Makoto Kyogoku is only human; he is not a god and can make mistakes.

Makoto Kyogoku did not receive professional training, so we cannot expect him to receive such training.

However, when Kyogoku Makoto was facing an ordinary person, Michiwaki Masahiko, it was precisely when Michiwaki Masahiko was about to kill Sonoko.

Even if Kyogoku had a hundred ways to easily save Sonoko, at least he wouldn't have to get hurt.

At that time, Kyogoku Makoto was in the shadows, while Michiwaki Masahiko was in the light.

It can't be because Kyogoku Makoto saw Sonoko in danger.

Therefore, he was in a state of panic and feared that he might accidentally kill the master with a flurry of punches, so he took the knife for Sonoko.

In Zhiyong's view, it should all have been part of Kyogoku Makoto's plan, or Kyogoku Makoto had taken advantage of Michiwaki Masahiko's plan.

Kyogoku Makoto deliberately let the other party stab him.

Only by making Sonoko feel guilty could he successfully enter her heart.

Of course, when it comes to picking up girls, there's no particular method.

Love can drive people crazy.

If it's an unexpected act of heroism rescuing a damsel in distress, Zhiyong will only offer praise.

Zhiyong was simply trying to win Sonoko's heart through this risky approach by Kyogoku Makoto.

In fact, Zhiyong felt that he was similar to Sawai Manabu, who had burned down the villa before.

The only difference is that the winner takes all.

Makoto Kyogoku was confident in his karate skills and believed he could control the situation, and in the end, he did succeed.

However, water and fire are merciless. Sawai Manabu's method couldn't control the situation; he could only rely on fate. Therefore, he failed.

"The garden."

Xiao Lan's somewhat exasperated shouts also brought Zhi Yong back to his senses.

Zhiyong noticed that Sonoko and Michiwaki Masahiko seemed to be whispering to each other.

Makoto Kyogoku walked over, slammed the tray between the two of them, and said, "Your fried noodles are very popular right now, so please finish them quickly."

After saying that, he turned and left.

"Why is this clerk acting like she has a grudge against us?" Michiwaki Masahiko said, annoyed.

Zhiyong found it amusing. Kyogoku Makoto was jealous. You're dating the goddess in his heart, and you won't even let him vent his jealousy?

At that moment, someone shouted loudly at the store entrance.

"Have you heard? Another body has been found in the woods along the railway line, another woman with brown hair."

"Really? I can't believe it happened again this year after one incident last year. The police are really useless; they haven't been able to investigate this for so long. This is seriously affecting our tourism industry."

"Who can argue with that?"

"Sigh, I wonder when they'll catch the culprit."

"..."

Upon hearing about the case, Conan seemed to be summoned by a mission and rushed out, leaving behind only one sentence.

"Sister Xiaolan, I'm going to take a look. I'll be right back."

Conan is truly a deduction fanatic; he doesn't care about anything else when he encounters a case.

Isn't he making it obvious to others that he has a problem?

What child would have such a hobby?

Conan is really lucky that he wasn't caught as a guinea pig.

"Don't run around, Conan!" Ran called out hurriedly.

Watching Conan run off into the distance, she said helplessly, "His curiosity is just too strong."

After saying that, he stood up and chased after her.

Zhi Yong and his group also went to the scene of the crime.

It was the woman Zhiyong saw being murdered last night.

Zhiyong glanced out of the corner of his eye at Michiwaki Masahiko standing beside him, noticing that he remained expressionless amidst the crowd.

It seems he has already killed several people and has developed a strong mental fortitude, remaining unmoved even upon seeing the corpses of the dead.

Who would have thought that Masahiko Michiwaki, who seemed like a very sunny man, would be a psychologically twisted, vicious maniac who repeatedly murdered women of brown hue?

Sonoko was also terrified and said to Ran, "I feel so scared. What if the murderer is targeting me too?"

Xiaolan comforted her, "How could that be, Yuanzi? It's okay, don't scare yourself."

"Ran, look, I also have brown hair. Nobody can guarantee that the killer won't target me next. I really don't want to die here." Sonoko's tears flowed.

Damn, is it really that exaggerated?

This is unlike Sonoko's personality.

Besides, with Xiaolan by her side, even if the murderer came, she shouldn't be afraid.

If she encountered this person under normal circumstances, she would definitely call Xiaolan and demand that she find him and beat him so badly that he couldn't take care of himself.

Hearing this from the side, Michiwaki Masahiko stepped forward and hugged Sonoko, saying very gently, "Don't worry, nothing will happen. I will protect you during our time in Izu."

After hearing Masahiko Michiwaki's words, Sonoko wiped away her tears and immediately burst into laughter.

Zhiyong looked at Sonoko and thought to himself, "Could it be that she acted like that just to get Michiwaki Masahiko to say those things? She must have read too many novels."

There are tricks everywhere these days.

However, this Michiwaki Masahiko really has great acting skills.

If Zhiyong didn't know his purpose, he would probably have been fooled by his acting skills.

Life is like a play, it depends on acting.

There are many talented people in this world who could win an Oscar for their acting skills.

“Given what’s happened, let’s have dinner somewhere else tonight,” Michiwaki Masahiko said with a smile.

"Okay," Sonoko replied.

“I’ll pick you up at seven o’clock tonight. Wait for me at the hotel entrance,” Michiwaki Masahiko added.

“Okay,” Sonoko replied.

"Then I'll be going now. See you tonight." Michiwaki Masahiko said and left.

"Okay, see you tonight," Sonoko said, her eyes sparkling with admiration.

"Didn't you say you were going to protect me? Why did you leave? Did you get scared and run away?" Zhiyong teased.

“Nothing will happen during the day, and besides, Ran will protect me,” Sonoko said loudly.

"Now you know Xiaolan is protecting you, so where did you go just now?" Zhiyong thought to himself.

Zhiyong glanced at his watch; it was already past four in the afternoon.

They left the scene of the crime, went back to the beach to change their clothes, and then went straight back to the hotel.

Nima.

Sonoko was wearing a swimsuit the whole time, so she just put on a top.

This was a test of Zhiyong's patience, and thankfully he managed to hold back and avoid making a fool of himself.

If Sonoko's identity weren't so special.

Zhiyong had been holding back for a long time.

……

Chapter 110 Kyogoku Makoto, what are you trying to do?

Inside the hotel, before seven o'clock, Sonoko couldn't wait and changed into her sexy clothes early.

But the weather didn't cooperate.

As Zhiyong and the others waited at the gate, it started to rain.

"It's raining, why isn't Mr. Michiwaki here yet?" Sonoko said anxiously.

"Sonoko, you've said it dozens of times already, don't rush, don't rush, the male lead will always be late," Ran comforted her with a smile.

"Don't say anymore, I'm getting embarrassed," Sonoko said, blushing.

"Splash."

The hotel doors opened.

Makoto Kyogoku placed an umbrella at the foot of the garden, and without saying a word, he closed the door again.

Zhiyong shook his head.

In fact, Zhiyong can also understand Kyogoku Makoto.

Makoto Kyogoku isn't very good at expressing his emotions, so he can only express them silently in this way.

It's such a pity.

"What does he mean by leaving this umbrella here? Is it for us to use?" Xiaolan asked curiously.

"This big brother might also have feelings for Sonoko-neechan," Conan teased.

"what!"

"Look, Sonoko, you're very popular," Ran teased.

"Ran, stop talking. That person's gloomy appearance is very unsettling," Sonoko replied.
