She didn't want that; she didn't want to be Ran Mouri, who knew nothing about what she was doing.
She wants to protect her father, protect her mother, and protect everyone she cares about.
An ice-cold Coke was placed in front of Ran Mouri. The click of the can hitting the coffee table brought Ran back to her senses.
"Stay calm. Only by staying calm can you think clearly."
Ran Mouri pursed her lips, pulled the tab, and took a sip.
The cool sparkling water soothed my throat and calmed my mind a bit.
Conan actually knew about this, didn't he?
That's probably what he and Amuro Tooru were talking about that day.
What role did he play in all of this?
Was she assisting the FBI by using her own father as bait?
Ran Mouri didn't believe it was true; the Shinichi Kudo she knew would never be someone who would use other people's lives as bargaining chips to scheme.
He valued all human life, just like hers.
So, what exactly is the inside story behind this?
She carefully reviewed the investigation report from beginning to end again, comparing it with her own memories.
Rena Mizunashi, also known as Kir from that organization.
Although this identity surprised her somewhat, with Amuro Tooru as a backup, she couldn't completely accept it.
That day, they met the host, Rena Mizunashi, through Yoko Okiya's introduction.
At that time, Rena Mizunashi was being harassed by people who kept ringing her doorbell. Yoko wanted her father to help investigate, so her father took them to Rena Mizunashi's residence.
The investigation revealed that a child rang the doorbell to wake Ms. Mizunashi up.
After that, they had no further contact with Ms. Minami.
So this is where the incident started.
Looking at the report which stated "chewing gum stuck to the sole of the shoe"...
She remembered that Conan had also chewed gum before, once on the Shinkansen, when he mischievously stuck it under a train seat. She caught him and gave him a good scolding.
Now it seems that it was probably not just chewing gum, but more likely a listening device or something similar.
Ran Mouri frowned.
Did Conan already know Mizunashi's identity at that time?
Or was it an accident?
Qingze could tell from Ran Mouri's expression that she probably realized something.
However, he didn't ask.
In addition to Amuro Tooru's investigation report, he also had a test report on the anesthetic needle on his computer.
That anesthetic injection was truly remarkable.
It can put someone to sleep in seconds, completely anesthetize them, and they will wake up a few hours later. Judging from Sonoko Suzuki's condition, there have been no aftereffects.
However, it is important to know that the dosage of anesthetics needs to be strictly controlled during normal surgery. An excessive dose can lead to respiratory depression, low blood pressure, or even endanger life.
However, Conan Edogawa's tranquilizer darts do not have these problems at all.
After waking up from the acupuncture, Sonoko Suzuki only felt sleepy and had no side effects such as dizziness or weakness.
Moreover, this anesthetic needle can dissolve on its own. If he hadn't pulled it out and sealed it away, it would probably have dissolved into the air long ago.
The fact that Conan Edogawa could create such an anesthetic needle means there must be a mastermind behind him.
"There's another report you can take a look at."
Ran Mouri did as she was told and opened another report.
"Anesthesia needle test report?" Ran Mouri asked, puzzled.
“I went out to eat with Sonoko Suzuki and your kid the other day, and we ran into a case. Your kid shot Sonoko Suzuki in the back of the head with a needle. I was a little curious about what it was, so I brought it back to have it tested…”
Ran Mouri's fingers tightened.
He knew that Conan was using his father's and Sonoko's identities to solve the case, so he must have used something to put them to sleep. Was it a tranquilizer dart?
The only thing on his body that could fire tranquilizer darts was his ever-present watch.
As for the sound, it should be that bow tie.
She sighed inwardly.
Shinichi has quite a few gadgets to use in order to solve the case.
"Will this anesthetic injection have any side effects?" That was what she was more concerned about.
The report was very simple, consisting of only a photo of the anesthetic needle and the test results for the needle.
As for whether there will be any side effects after use, ordinary tests cannot detect them.
But the ones receiving the anesthetic injections are my own father and my best friend, how can I not worry and not care?
"I don't know about that. The test report can only detect that it is an anesthetic needle. The anesthetic inside the needle is injected into the target's body when it hits. Very little remains on the needle, so the specific dosage cannot be detected."
The needle is already as fine as a hair, and it can dissolve itself automatically, so there is no need to retrieve it.
It was exposed to the air for a short time during the test, and then it dissipated.
Seeing Ran Mouri's furrowed brows, he slightly curled the corners of his mouth and deliberately said:
"But to make someone fall asleep in seconds, the dosage must be quite high..."
Qingze is not a good person, and of course he would use tactics like sowing discord.
Although it's unclear who this Conan Edogawa really is, stirring up trouble between them would only benefit him.
Moreover, everything he said was true.
Ran Mouri looked down at the screen, her emotions hidden by her falling hair.
In those azure eyes reflected on the screen, a flame of anger flickered.
Chapter 53 Now, praise me, immediately!
Conan noticed that Ran's gaze towards him today was very strange and dangerous, as if she wanted to smash him like a telephone pole with one punch.
He trembled and tried to shrink himself down.
What did he do to offend Xiaolan this time?
I have a feeling that Xiaolan is in great danger right now, so he should run away.
"Ran-neechan, I'm going to Professor Agasa's house to play..."
After saying that, he put on his shoes and ran away as fast as he could.
Kogoro Mouri peeked out from behind the television, puzzled.
"What did that brat do to you? Why do you look like you really want to punch him?"
"Have it?"
Ran Mouri touched her face. She should have been able to control her expression quite well. Was she really that obviously revealing?
"Dad, are you feeling unwell anywhere?"
Thinking of the results of his last hospital visit, Kogoro Mouri immediately became alert.
"No, I'm perfectly healthy!"
He doesn't want to quit drinking! He absolutely refuses to quit drinking!!
"Let's go to the hospital for a check-up tomorrow, Dad. Your previous alcoholic hepatitis also needs to be rechecked."
"I'm fine! I'm not going! I'm perfectly healthy!!"
Kogoro Mouri hugged his vulnerable self tightly.
He can't live without alcohol, he really can't live without alcohol!
"Dad!" Ran Mouri raised her voice, her brows furrowing.
Seeing that his daughter was angry, Kogoro Mori slumped his shoulders dejectedly, looking unwilling.
"Fine, I'll go then..."
The following day, Ran Mouri, along with Kogoro Mouri and Conan, went to Beika General Hospital and registered them for a full-body checkup.
While waiting in line, they looked up at the entertainment programs on TV.
At that moment, a man playing on his phone nearby exclaimed in surprise.
"Another congressman is dead! And his entire family was wiped out!"
Conan was startled and quickly took out his phone to check the news.
Kogoro Mouri frowned, picked up the remote control next to him, and switched to the news channel.
The news channel was indeed broadcasting news about the congressman's death.
Last night, Representative Reita Kawasaki was found dead in his home, along with his family of three and the four public security officers who were protecting them...
Was it a shooting, or an extremely brutal home invasion shooting?
Not only did they kill the congressman, but they also killed four professional armed police officers!
Kogoro Mouri frowned. "Another professional assassin..."
This kind of technique and ability can only be achieved by professional assassins.
The news is still ongoing:
A witness captured a photo of the suspect's back. To apprehend the suspect as quickly as possible, we urge all citizens to actively provide any clues…
At the same time, that photo was also posted.
The photo is very blurry, and it was taken at night with dim lighting. The killer was dressed in black, and only a head of white hair could be vaguely seen moving quickly.
The moment Ran Mouri saw the white hair, her pupils contracted, but she quickly recovered.
Although the murderer also had white hair, it was clearly not Qingze.
Qingze's hair was only long at the back of her neck. Although the upper part of her body was blurry, she felt that the murderer was much smaller than Qingze.
Assassin, white hair...
Ran Mouri remembered that Gin also had a head of white hair...
Could it be someone from the organization Qingze belongs to?
Those gray hairs are probably all due to the medication...
Conan stared intently at the photo on the television.
Koniak!
It's definitely Koniak!
They either don't make a move at all, or when they do, it's a decisive blow.
Previously, when the Public Security Bureau learned that the organization was planning to target Reita Kawasaki, they set up an encirclement around him, hoping to capture one or two members of the organization.
Later, there was no further movement from Kawasaki Reita's side, but other members of parliament died. The Public Security Bureau suspected that the mission was a cover-up. In addition, the members of parliament were all on edge, so the covert encirclement was withdrawn and the security personnel were distributed to other members of parliament, leaving only a few people to protect them openly.
But it was at this time that Reita Kawasaki died.
He died along with several police officers who were protecting him.
Conan harbored resentment.
He quickly pulled himself out of his anger and began to analyze the situation seriously.
The news reports were brief, but the evidence at the scene suggests that a fight and gun battle had taken place.
I don't know if there were any bloodstains, footprints or anything like that left behind.
