Detective Conan: The Ultimate Growth Space

Fortunately, Makoto Kyogoku had put down his umbrella, so he left feeling embarrassed.

Otherwise, after hearing what Sonoko said, I wonder if she would cry herself to death in the toilet.

“Yes, Sonoko already has Mr. Michiwaki,” Ran said with a smile.

"I'm so sorry to say that," Sonoko said, patting her pockets. "I forgot my wallet in my room. Please wait a moment while I go back to my room to get it." With that, she went into the hotel.

We entered the hotel in the garden.

Xiao Lan pondered, "I feel like I've seen this hotel owner's son somewhere before."

“Of course you’ve met him, you should be considered an acquaintance,” Zhiyong said with a smile.

"Do I know him?" Xiaolan asked, puzzled.

"How did Ran know?" Conan asked hurriedly.

“Think about karate, and you’ll remember. I also need to grab something.” With that, Zhiyong returned to the hotel.

Zhiyong remembers that Sonoko encountered danger after entering the room.

Although in the storyline.

Sonoko escaped unharmed this time.

But who knows if the outcome will change because of Zhiyong's appearance?

When Sonoko returned to the hotel and opened the door to her room, she saw a figure in the room and was about to shout.

Michiwaki Masahiko was even faster.

Upon seeing Sonoko, he immediately went up to her, grabbed her, and covered her mouth to prevent her from making a sound.

Masahiko Michiwaki tried to pull Sonoko into the room.

Sonoko's mouth was covered, preventing her from making a sound, so she could only use all her strength to grip the door frame.

But Sonoko isn't Ran; how can she compare to a man's strength?

After Sonoko was pulled into the room, Michiwaki Masahiko closed the door.

Michiwaki Masahiko pinned Sonoko to the ground, took out a short sword, and raised it high.

As Zhiyong was going up the stairs, he heard noises coming from upstairs, so he quickened his pace.

Just as Michiwaki Masahiko pinned Sonoko to the ground, Tomoyuki had already arrived at the door.

Without thinking, Zhiyong suddenly opened the door.

Just as Michiwaki Masahiko raised his short sword, he was startled when he saw someone open the door.

Zhi Yong didn't care about anything else and in that instant, he quickly kicked out.

Before Masahiko Michiwaki could react, the short sword in his hand was kicked away by Tomoyuki and fell to the floor.

Zhi Yong then delivered another kick.

Michiwaki Masahiko felt a sudden lightness in his body as he was kicked away by Tomoyuki.

A loud "Bang!"

Zhiyong stepped forward and helped Yuanzi up from the ground, saying, "Yuanzi, are you alright?"

Sonoko was panting heavily, unable to speak, and kept coughing.

Upon hearing the noise upstairs, a person ran up from downstairs; it was none other than Makoto Kyogoku.

Because the lights in the room were not on.

Kyogoku Makoto was also unaware of the situation.

He was so concerned that he failed to see Michiwaki Masahiko lying on the ground not far away.

When Makoto Kyogoku saw Tomoyuki half-embracing Sonoko, he assumed that Tomoyuki had bullied Sonoko and kicked Tomoyuki.

Just as Zhiyong helped Yuanzi up, he heard a fierce gust of wind rushing from behind.

You can tell just by the sound of the wind.

The opponent is extremely strong.

Among the people in this inn, Zhiyong immediately thought of Makoto Kyogoku, who possessed such strength.

At this moment, Zhiyong didn't have time to think much. He gathered all his strength and used even that last bit of true energy to kick the back of his body.

Their feet touched.

Kyogoku Makoto stumbled back a few steps, crashing into the door of the opposite room and breaking it as well.

He lost his balance and fell to the ground with a thud.

Zhiyong, supporting Yuanzi, also took a few steps back, almost throwing Yuanzi away.

Now, Zhiyong has undergone a spatial enhancement, combined with the martial arts he has learned.

Zhiyong's current strength is still decent against the average person.

But against Makoto Kyogoku, even the wise and brave would definitely lose.

Therefore, Zhiyong, upon learning that the other party was Makoto Kyogoku, did not want to get hurt.

Zhi Yong immediately unleashed his trump card.

That's why Makoto Kyogoku was able to gain the upper hand with a single kick.

In the room across the hall, Makoto Kyogoku was slightly injured, but not seriously.

Therefore, he quickly stood up, looked at Zhiyong, and his eyes seemed to shine.

Zhiyong thought to himself, feeling frustrated, "Kyogoku Makoto, what are you trying to do?"

Now that he has used up that last bit of true energy, Zhiyong is no longer able to fight.

But this also made Zhiyong a little depressed.

I originally thought that with that wisp of true energy, it could become a trump card.

It seems that the internal energy is too low, so the effect is not significant.

Of course, Zhiyong was somewhat satisfied as well.

Without that direct contact, Makoto Kyogoku's kick would have injured Tomoyuki.

Ran and Conan had already come up from downstairs by this time and saw Kyogoku Makoto's condition. Ran didn't know what had happened.

"What happened?"

She quickly turned on the light and saw Zhiyong half-embracing the garden.

There was a knife on the ground not far away, and a masked man was lying there.

By this time, Makoto Kyogoku had realized that he seemed to have misunderstood.

However, Makoto Kyogoku was also very unhappy with Zhiyong's kick earlier.

Makoto Kyogoku always believed that he was a karate genius, not to mention that he was invincible throughout the island of Japan.

At least Makoto Kyogoku believed that no one of his age could surpass him.

But now Makoto Kyogoku finally feels that he has met his match.

Sonoko recovered and saw the person lying on the ground. She went up to him and kicked him a few times.

Zhiyong looked at the person on the ground and said, "Mr. Michiwaki, don't play dead. I know the strength I used; I didn't knock you unconscious."

"What? He's Mr. Michiwaki?" Ran asked in great surprise.

Sonoko also said in disbelief, "How could it be Mr. Michiwaki?"

The room was so dark just now that Sonoko didn't notice who attacked her.

Sonoko was quite surprised to hear that the other person was Masahiko Michiwaki.

Michiwaki Masahiko was quite straightforward; he slowly stood up and pulled off the hood covering his face.

Upon closer inspection, everyone recognized him as Masahiko Michiwaki.

……

Chapter 111 Sonoko's Relationship Ended Before It Even Began

Michiwaki Masahiko was covered in sweat and glared fiercely at Tomoyuki.

"It really is Mr. Michiwaki." Ran looked on in great surprise.

"How could this happen?" Sonoko was on the verge of tears.

Sonoko never expected that the one who attacked her would be Masahiko Michiwaki.

"How did you know it was me?" Michiwaki Masahiko asked in return.

Zhiyong said disdainfully, "Life is like a play, it all depends on acting skills. Although Mr. Michiwaki performed very well today, I still felt something was wrong. When I saw the grove, there was another woman with brown hair who had died there. I knew that you had another purpose in coming to see Sonoko."

Michiwaki Masahiko asked suspiciously, "What did I do that aroused your suspicion?"

“Mr. Michiwaki, actually, when you said your girlfriend dumped you, I felt that it was a very wise decision for her to dump you,” Tomoyuki mocked.

Michiwaki Masahiko was also taken aback by Tomoyuki's words.

He never expected that Zhiyong would say such a thing at this moment.

Zhiyong continued, "Actually, there's nothing wrong with letting go of the past and finding a new life. People can't live in the past. It's just that you started dating other girls right after your breakup, which feels very incongruous. It can only mean that you didn't love your ex-girlfriend much. It seems that you're just upset that she dumped you."

"What does this have to do with your suspicion of me?" Masahiko Michiwaki asked.

“You’ve just broken up with your boyfriend, so even if you were to look for someone, you would look for someone as gentle as Ran. But you chose Sonoko. Although everyone has their own preferences, I didn’t sense any interest in Sonoko from your eyes,” Zhiyong replied.

"Just because of this?" Michiwaki Masahiko said, somewhat annoyed.

"Zhiyong, what are you saying? Am I that bad?" Sonoko said, feeling both frustrated and angry.

Zhiyong smiled and said, "Alright, Sonoko, you misunderstood me. I didn't say you're inferior to Ran. This isn't the time to talk about that. Let's deal with this person's problem first."

Sonoko didn't say anything more after hearing that, and stepped aside.

“When you were eating with us, you often noticed Sonoko’s camera and would steer the conversation toward it. So I found it strange. I wondered if you were one of the couples in the photos Sonoko took, and if you were afraid that others would know about your relationship with them.”
