Genshin Impact players in the world of Detective Conan

Store Manager Inoue immediately said:

"The police have already considered this possibility. If you want to say who benefits the most from the disappearance of my [Sapphire], it would naturally be the [Dream Cat Cafe] on the next street."

However, the police have already investigated and found that their individuals all have sufficient alibis and did not have the opportunity to commit the crime.

Yukino Yukinoshita added:

"Furthermore, the Panasonic owner is a cat lover and would not do such a thing."

Yin Kong glanced at the girl with long, straight black hair, wondering if she knew all the cat cafes in the area by heart.

"Do you have a photo?"

Cats aren't people, and no matter how valuable they are, the police can't leave the scene unattended forever.

At most, only photos and other evidence will remain.

"Of course."

Store Manager Inoue immediately took out some photos of the "Sapphire" and photos taken at the crime scene.

As expected of the "top star" of the cat café, she is indeed exceptionally cute.

Even someone like Yin Kong, who doesn't particularly like small animals, couldn't help but feel the urge to pet the adorable creatures in the photos.

Unfortunately, this adorable and beautiful little guy has completely changed his appearance.

Yin Kong gently shook his head, lifting his gaze from the photo of [Sapphire] and quickly looking down at the only "evil spirit" in the cat café.

This is a cat-shaped demon with scarlet eyes and its entire body enveloped in pitch-black flames.

Unlike the monsters Yin Kong had encountered before, it didn't ask passersby if they could see it. Its only action was to breathe on the bespectacled, seemingly honest office worker in front of it.

Chapter 49 Lure the snake out of its hole

The saying that both the murderer and his lover liked to return to the scene afterward is indeed quite true.

Lv8. [Sapphire's Vengeful Spirit].

Even without the guidance of the system cursor, the name of the evil spirit and its behavior alone were enough for Yin Kong to pinpoint the culprit.

"Huh? That's weird."

Yin Kong looked away and then deliberately let out a strange exclamation.

Store manager Inoue was taken aback, but quickly followed up with the question:

"Strange, have you discovered something?"

Yin Kong randomly picked one photo from a stack and placed it in front of the other person:

"Of course, look at this photo, isn't it very strange?"

This photo is very strange?

Store Manager Inoue lowered his head in confusion and examined the scene in the photo again, but no matter how he looked at it, he couldn't find anything unusual.

On the other side, Yukino Yukinoshita also frowned slightly, having also come up empty-handed.

Store manager Inoue said with a helpless expression:

"Detective Yin Kong, you're a professional, so please stop keeping us in suspense and just tell us the answer."

"No way? It's so obvious, how come you guys didn't notice?"

Yin Kong immediately adopted a tone of disappointment and frustration, shaking his head and saying:

"This is very important evidence, enough to deduce many characteristics of the criminal from the side."

Store manager Inoue looked completely bewildered:

"Deduce...the criminal's characteristics?"

Yin Kong looked completely matter-of-fact:

"First of all, the perpetrator must be an adult male, and also wear glasses."

Matsubara Takashi was initially dismissive, and even wanted to scoff.

Even if Sapphire is just a cat, the fact that it was killed in such a cruel way—by disemboweling it—makes a strong, adult male the prime suspect.

However, upon hearing the words "wear glasses," he suddenly stopped drinking the coffee he was about to drink, and his previously confident expression froze.

How did he figure that out? Is there really evidence in the photo?

Store Manager Inoue was also filled with the same question at that moment.

He looked at the photo from every angle, but couldn't find any evidence in the photo that could help Yin Kong deduce these contents.

Yin Kong, however, had no intention of explaining and continued his analysis:

"Then I thought, he's about 1.75 meters tall, not particularly muscular, and, oh right, he should be wearing a ring on the ring finger of his left hand..."

With each sentence Yin Kong spoke, Matsubara Takashi's pupils trembled.

In the end, he was completely stunned, his mind almost blank.

Store Manager Inoue might still find this description rather vague and unclear.

But how could Matsubara Takashi not know that Yoon Sora's description perfectly matched his characteristics?

If there was still a slight possibility that he was just guessing because he was wearing glasses, then now he was completely certain that Yin Kong had indeed found some decisive evidence in the photos.

Now how to do?

At this moment, Matsubara Takashi was completely devoid of his previous composure.

Just as Yin Kong said before, killing a cat is not the same as killing a person, but it would be more than enough to send him to jail to pick up soap for a few years.

Having heard Yin Kong describe it in such detail, Yukino Yukinoshita finally asked for clarification:

"Mr. Yin Kong, could you please be more specific? Which items in this photograph support your inferences?"

"Of course, it's here—"

Seeing that Matsubara Takashi's body had unconsciously leaned forward, wanting to hear his words more clearly, Yin Kong nodded slightly, knowing that the time was right. He then suddenly stopped speaking, looked around, and shook his head, saying:

“Manager Inoue, let’s find another place. You should know the Chinese proverb ‘walls have ears.’ If the criminal overhears what I say and realizes what’s going on, he might secretly destroy the evidence, which would be bad.”

Store manager Inoue also realized:

"Oh yes, the store is indeed crowded and noisy."

Yin Kong immediately said:

"Let's go to the alley where the body was found to talk; maybe we can find more direct evidence there."

Store manager Inoue naturally nodded repeatedly:

"Of course, please come in."

Yin Kong left the cat cafe through the back door first. After confirming that no one was around, he immediately switched Fischl out from the back.

"Oh ho ho ho, so it seems I, the princess, still have to take action myself?"

Yin Kong suppressed a laugh and said:

"Such a petty thief is not worth Your Highness's personal attention. Lord Oz will suffice."

When Inoue and Yukino Yukinoshita followed them out, they naturally didn't notice that a jet-black night raven had quietly appeared above their heads.

Unlike a certain Stand with a speed of A, Oars is not only an excellent "Judgment Thunder" launcher, but can also share vision with Fischl.

Therefore, even within the Adventurers' Guild in Mondstadt, Fischl's reconnaissance abilities are among the best.

The commanding view from above allowed Yin Kong to take in the entire area surrounding the coffee shop.

Naturally, this includes the prisoner's every move.

"Mr. Yin Kong, why did you suddenly stop here?"

Seeing that Yin Kong did not go to the back alley as he had said, Manager Inoue asked in confusion.

At this moment, Yin Kong naturally no longer needed to continue acting, and explained with a smile:

"Naturally, we're waiting for the fish to take the bait."

While Mr. Inoue was still wondering, Yukino Yukinoshita had already realized what was happening and exclaimed:

"Mr. Yin Kong, do you mean that the person who killed [Sapphire] is in the coffee shop and is eavesdropping on our conversation?"

If that's the case, then their actions will indeed attract the attention of the other side, and they may very well be followed all the way out.

No wonder they couldn't see anything unusual in the photo; it turns out Yin Kong was just making things up.

But soon, even more questions arose in Yukino's mind.

Even if such a possibility exists, Yin Kong's actions seem rather rash.

Since they didn't find any substantial evidence at the scene, it means that the perpetrator was quite cautious in his actions.

Would someone like that really be fooled by Yin Kong's baseless words?

Rather than suspiciously chasing after them, the other party might have already seen through their intentions and is staying in the shop, drinking coffee and enjoying their futile efforts.

Seemingly sensing the doubts of the young lady with long, straight black hair, Yin Kong immediately chuckled and explained:

"It's not a possibility, it's a certainty, because he's already caught up..."

"You really can't keep your composure. I thought it would take more effort."

However, it's not entirely incomprehensible.

Ultimately, he's just a scumbag who only dares to prey on small animals. Even in the beautiful and resource-rich Beika Town, it's not so exaggerated that all criminals can kill without blinking an eye like the Black Organization, and can calmly think things through no matter the situation.

Chapter 50 Those who wish take the bait

They actually took the bait?

Upon hearing Yin Kong's words, Yukino Yukinoshita was naturally surprised.

Could it be that I overestimated the prisoner's caution and intelligence?

Store manager Inoue asked curiously:

"Mr. Yin Kong, how did you know?"

They didn't notice any suspicious stalkers nearby either.

Yin Kong casually explained:

"Because I have a reliable assistant, come with me."

Yukino Yukinoshita and Manager Inoue suddenly realized what was going on and quickly followed Yin Kong to the back alley where the crime scene was located.

With Oz's guidance, Yin Kong quickly found a shady spot where he could hide.

After the three of them hid there for a while, Yin Kong suddenly raised his index finger, put it to his lips, and gestured for the two of them to be quiet.

Store manager Inoue and Yukino Yukinoshita immediately understood. Sure enough, a few seconds later, a sneaky figure appeared at the exit of the back alley.

It seems that the prisoner wasn't completely stupid after all; instead of following them directly, he deliberately took a long detour and approached from the other side of the back alley.

Unfortunately, he probably couldn't have guessed that there was a pair of sharp eyes in the sky who had seen through his every move.

Why can't I hear any discussion at all?

Didn't that damn detective say we should look for evidence at the scene?

Matsubara Takashi cautiously approached the back alley, only to find it completely silent, without a single human voice in sight. A sense of foreboding immediately rose in his heart.

The next moment, a voice that almost made his heart stop rang out from behind him:

"Sir, what are you doing here? Are you looking for us?"

Seeing Yin Kong slowly emerge from the shadows, and Inoue, the shopkeeper, and Yukino Yukinoshita, staring at him with hostile eyes from his left and right, Matsubara Takashi was immediately frightened and took several steps back.

Damn it, I've been tricked!

The moment the three appeared, he understood everything completely.

Yin Kong had absolutely no evidence; it was all just a performance to lure him in.

Matsubara Takashi forced a smile at the three of them:
