Because the murderer was finally found, Conan was overly excited and hurried into the broadcasting room. He shot Kogoro Maori unconscious with a shot and talked to the radio. The police on the first floor were so excited that they didn't notice that Chu Ming and Cheng Shi exchanged glances. Chu Ming slightly turned his body to block everyone's attention for Cheng Shi, and Cheng Shi took the opportunity to run out.

After hearing the explanation, the police remembered that they wanted to see the prisoner cry, kneel and confess, and when they looked at the scene, huh? Where is the prisoner?

Chu Ming rolled his eyes secretly. He had no idea what the police in the science world were thinking. They were only concerned with listening to the detective's chatter. What if not all the murderers cooperated and listened to the detective's story?

Chu Ming's ears moved slightly, and what came with the sound of the wind was Beethoven's symphony - Moonlight.

This is the secret code agreed upon by Chu Ming and Cheng Shi.

Chu Ming immediately looked anxious: "Where's Doctor Asai? Why is he gone?"

The policemen around looked around, and when they arrived at the piano room, a raging fire had already broken out in the room, with thick smoke rising. In the flickering firelight, Cheng Shi was leisurely playing a song on the piano.

"Squeaky—" Conan rushed in hastily, "Don't do this. Look, the music score your father left behind tells you to live well! Take a look!"

Cheng Shi looked at Conan's young but determined face and smiled bitterly: "It's too late, little detective..."

Perhaps the fire brought back Cheng Shi's memories, or perhaps it was to say goodbye to the past completely, Cheng Shi gradually revealed his past to Conan.

The fire grew bigger and bigger, and the visibility in the house became lower and lower. Cheng Shi began to choke and cough as he spoke.

Conan anxiously pulled at his clothes: "Get out of here! There's still time!"

The tears in Chengshi's eyes grew more and more, and he was about to send Conan out.

Chu Ming ran in holding a wet towel. Cheng Shi looked at him, stuffed Conan into his arms, and pushed the two of them out.

Chu Ming took the opportunity to hang the 'Son of the God of Fire' buff he had exchanged on Cheng Shi. Conan was still struggling to go down and pull Cheng Shi, but the fire was too big and bricks and tiles fell from time to time. Fortunately, Chu Ming was agile and was not hit.

A huge piece of wood came roaring down, engulfed in flames. Chu Ming hugged Conan tightly and rolled over to avoid it, but his hand fell on the hot charcoal.

"Hiss——" Chu Ming gritted his teeth. Damn! What a loss!

"Brother Chu Ming!"

"Okay, Conan, I'll take you out first!" Chu Ming used some strength to control Conan, ignored his shouting, dodged the falling objects all the way, ran to the door, threw Conan directly to Xiaolan, turned around and continued to walk into the fire.

"Brother Chu Ming, come back soon!"

"Brother Chu Ming!"

"Boy! Don't go in there!"

…………

Ignoring the shouts behind him, he was determined to send Chengshi out.

He let Cheng Shi dive into the sea from the back window as planned. Chu Ming had already arranged peripheral members to pick him up in advance. He painfully exchanged a customized corpse from the system mall and placed it near the piano. This was a body made based on Cheng Shi's DNA scanned by the system. No matter how the police checked, they would not find anything unusual.

The only drawback is that it is expensive. This time all the points I got from the three corpses were wasted.

After everything was arranged, the small green dot on the small map that marked Chengshi was also taken away. Seeing that the fire was already raging, Chu Ming knew that if he didn't get out, he would probably be dead.

Conan and his friends outside looked anxiously at the room which was gradually being engulfed by flames, and kept looking around.

"Bang" the window on the second floor was broken, Chu Ming flew down from the second floor and fell to the ground. His body was still a little wet, and there were some scratches on his handsome face, which was stained with a lot of black ash. There were several burns on his arms, and blood was slowly oozing out. He looked particularly embarrassed.

Chu Ming gasped, his eyes full of guilt and regret: "I couldn't save Dr. Asai - I'm sorry, I..."

"What nonsense are you talking about! It's great that you protected yourself and didn't get hurt!" Inspector Megure hurriedly comforted him. After all, the fire was so big that it was not easy for him to save himself and get out.

"but--"

"Okay, Brother Chu Ming, take care of your injuries quickly." Xiaolan walked over with a medical box.

"Oh my god——" Conan exclaimed. "Brother Chu Ming, your hand!"

The palm that had just pressed on the charcoal was bloody and the flesh was rolling around. The charred flesh and oozing blood mixed together, looking particularly hideous against the backdrop of the white and slender fingers.

"Thank you, Brother Chu Ming. If it weren't for saving me, you wouldn't..." Conan had some guilt in his eyes. If it weren't for saving him, Chu Ming wouldn't have been so badly injured.

Chu Ming stroked Conan's head with his intact hand to stop him from continuing.

"When I was injured last time, wasn't Conan the first one to come and help me? You see, we are even now."

So, little detective, remember to call me next time there is a case. In order to recruit new members for the winery, I have already incurred negative assets.

---------------------------

Chu Ming held up his hand that was wrapped like a pumpkin, quite speechless.

"Hey, hey--Xiaolan, is there any need to be so exaggerated?"

Xiaolan complained: "Brother Chu Ming, you should be more careful. You are obviously injured but you still want to run inside."

"What's the matter? I just want to see--"

The fire gradually became smaller and after it was put out, the police found Cheng Shi's "corpse" at the fire scene. In order to prevent the system from cheating him of a large amount of funds and not doing his job, and to fill in any loopholes, Chu Ming also followed in.

——Although he was immediately caught by Inspector Megure and Kogoro Mouri and sent to Ran for custody.

However, the police have confirmed that the body is Cheng Shi's, and finally closed the case as the murderer committed suicide.

On the cruise ship back to Tokyo, Chu Ming lay on the deck wearing sunglasses and basking in the sun leisurely, with his bandaged hands safely placed at his side. He tilted his head and drank the orange juice that Conan held to his lips. Wow, the orange juice served by the god of death himself was really extra sweet——

Conan laughed and changed his sore left hand to his right hand and continued to raise it. Damn it, please give me back the emotion I had felt before!
