But the murderer did not.
She calmly killed someone in public, hid the murder weapon, and even calmly faced the police.
She felt neither pain nor guilt.
Her reason for killing was simply jealousy.
Upon receiving this message, Qingze raised an eyebrow.
What happened that made you suddenly ask this kind of question?
He typed a message and replied.
That's because the price to pay isn't high enough.
Ran Mouri stared at the last few words of that sentence.
The cost wasn't high enough?
Yes.
She had seen some of the mothers' files, and even if it was murder, they could apply for parole in as little as two and a half years.
Two and a half years for one life? That's too lenient.
The next moment, Qingze dialed the number.
Why are you suddenly asking this? What happened?
Ran Mouri sighed, still feeling down and not quite recovered.
"I encountered a case and was treated as a suspect..."
"Oh? You sound like you have a lot to say. Tell me more."
Ran Mouri recounted what had happened in detail.
“I was calling you from the corner. A few minutes after I left, someone died there. Some students saw me there, so the investigation led to me…”
"Yes, we found the culprit and resolved the predicament. You did a great job."
Qingze was not stingy with his praise.
Appropriate praise and compliments can provide emotional value, give people more motivation, and motivate them to work harder.
Ran Mouri did a really good job.
Beside her, Bai Yu blinked as she watched the girl in front of her speak to the person on the other end of the phone in a tone as if she were coaxing a child.
Is she talking to a little kid on the phone?
Ran Mouri was immediately delighted to be praised.
"Hehe, it's alright. This case is very simple and not complicated."
"Many cases are not complicated; what's complicated is the people involved."
"Yes... By the way, Mr. Amuro suspects me. I feel like he knows I'm Koniak."
"Don't worry about him. The motorcycle is parked in the parking lot. Go back now."
"Okay."
Seeing that "Ran Mouri" had hung up the phone, Bai Yu couldn't help but ask:
Are you on the phone with Qingze?
It's definitely impossible to let a small child ride a motorcycle, so the person making the call must be Qingze, right?
So, Qingze encountered a case, found the murderer, and came here seeking praise?
Since leaving the organization, Qingze has truly been constantly redefining her understanding.
If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she really wouldn't have believed that Qingze, who was known as the "Demon God" in the organization, was so naive.
Qingze immediately saw through what Baiyu was thinking.
He nodded without explaining.
How do you explain this?
The only option is to sacrifice his image...
The case is closed, and the police are escorting the criminals away when Conan returns to Jodie's side.
Because of the previous car accident on the elevated highway, the Japanese police now have a lot of complaints about the FBI, so Judy did not approach them.
"Let's go back to the infirmary, it's getting cold here."
Looking at the food he had given to Judy, Conan suddenly slapped his forehead.
Ah, I forgot about Xiaolan!
Amuro Tooru, having arrived at the infirmary, knocked on the door of the rest room and stepped inside.
At this moment, only Ran Mouri was in the infirmary. She sat by the bed, seemingly waiting for something.
Upon seeing him arrive, the girl looked surprised, then her eyes crinkled into a smile.
"Mr. Amuro is here today too! Did you see my performance?"
"I see! Miss Ran looks especially beautiful today!" Amuro Tooru's expression was no different from usual, gentle yet concerned. "I heard you sprained your ankle, is it serious?"
His gaze fell on the girl's feet, but her ankles were covered by her pants, so he couldn't see what was going on.
The girl looked distressed. "I'll have to use crutches for a few days."
Bai Yu, who had gone to the infirmary next door to get his crutches, stood at the door, his gaze fixed on Amuro Tooru, his eyes filled with vigilance.
Bourbon.
Qingze asked her to protect Ran Mouri, and naturally told her about the situation of some people around Ran Mouri.
For example, the bourbon in the coffee shop downstairs.
He had been spending time in the coffee shop, becoming a student of Ran Mouri's father, and was also a member of the Japanese Public Security Bureau.
Upon seeing Bai Yu, Qing Ze, disguised as a young girl, beckoned her over.
"Miss Baiyu!"
Bai Yu walked over and handed him the cane. Qing Ze took it and took a few steps with it, but he didn't feel quite used to it.
It's so inconvenient.
But you have to adapt, even if you don't want to, and you can at least pretend to be used to it.
Why don't you take a few days off to rest at home? He doesn't really want to go to school.
I just don't know if the Mori couple will agree.
"How are you feeling?" Bai Yu asked.
"Not good, using crutches feels awful..."
Bai Yu thought for a moment, "How about I go find a wheelchair?"
The girl gave a helpless twitch of her lips. "It's just a sprained ankle, it's too much of an exaggeration to have to use a wheelchair."
"Who is this?" Amuro Tooru's curious gaze fell on this woman he had never seen before.
"This is Miss Baiyu."
White jade?
A strange light flashed in Amuro Tooru's eyes.
Curaçao used a pseudonym containing the character "白玉" (white jade) when she was at the amusement park.
Would Koniak be so blatant?
He examined Bai Yu's face closely; it didn't look like her.
It looks nothing like Curaçao.
But their heights are about the same.
Could it be a disguise? Or is he just overthinking it?
"Hello, I'm Bai Yumingzi." Bai Yu greeted him with a shy smile.
"This is Mr. Amuro, an employee at Poirot Cafe. Mr. Amuro's cooking skills are excellent."
"I'll definitely give it a try if I have the chance."
"Sister Xiaolan!"
Just as they were chatting, Conan rushed in. His gaze quickly swept around the room and landed on Ran.
Seeing that Xiaolan didn't show any signs of complaint or blame for waiting too long, he felt a little uneasy.
Xiaolan had become estranged from him, which is why she didn't care how long it took him.
Because we no longer care, we become tolerant.
"I ran into a case, which delayed me a bit, and the food got a little cold..."
Chapter 291 Does He Know You Sprained Your Ankle?
"It's alright, thank you for your hard work, Conan!"
Qingze sat down again, picked up a box of takoyaki and started eating.
The takoyaki tasted good, and it didn't affect the flavor even when it got cold.
As he ate, he asked curiously:
"What case did you encounter?"
"Someone has been murdered..." Conan briefly explained the case.
The girl frowned slightly, a hint of sadness in her eyes. "Killing someone out of jealousy? That's incredibly disregard for human life..."
Amuro Tooru stood aside, watching with a mocking expression as the girl felt sorrow for the passing of a life.
Your boyfriend is even less likely to value human life.
"Some people can always find a lot of reasons to kill." After a pause, Amuro Tooru steered the conversation, "Speaking of which, one suspect was the gentleman who hugged Ms. Mori; he was the one who directly pointed out the killer's flaws..."
Ran Mouri frowned. "That gentleman is a detective too?"
She tilted her head slightly to look at Amuro Tooru, seemingly not understanding why he brought this up.
"Mr. Amuro, what do you mean by that person hugging Ran?!"
Conan grabbed Amuro Tooru's trouser leg, looked up at him, and was determined to find out the truth.
Without Amuro Tooru saying it, "Ran Mouri" said it herself.
"When I sprained my ankle, a man forcibly picked me up and said he would take me to the infirmary. Luckily, Miss Baiyu stopped him, otherwise..."
Conan's heart jumped, but then Ran continued.
"Otherwise, I would have punched him in the face!"
As she said this, the girl looked annoyed and rubbed her fist.
Conan's lips twitched slightly.
I almost forgot about Xiaolan's fighting skills.
Ran Mouri was still muttering unhappily, as if she wanted to express all her feelings from that moment.
"I didn't even know him, and he suddenly picked me up, which startled me... I told him not to bother him, but he wouldn't let go. He seemed like a pervert who was deliberately taking advantage of girls..."
A dark glint flashed in Amuro Tooru's eyes.
It was undoubtedly Koniak.
He didn't believe Koniak hadn't come, nor did he believe that a strange man could hug Ran Mouri in front of Koniak and still be alright.
Koniak's disguise was excellent; even Ran Mouri didn't notice.
That's true. If you're not good at disguising yourself, how could you possibly fool this girl so easily?
Even he was initially fooled and didn't suspect anything.
