Conan wants to lie down but won't let him

Chapter 271 Xiao Wu's Secret Exposed

"Is this true? Xiao Wu... Xiao Wu..." At this time, Hatamoto Xiajiang could no longer hold back, and rushed to Xiao Wu and asked him.

Xia Jiang was scared. She kept asking Xiao Wu questions, hoping that the answer was not true and that Xiao Wu's feelings for her were not for any other purpose.

"That's right! I am the son of Isamu Zaishiro - Takehiko Zaishiro!" After struggling in his heart for a long time, Xiao Wu finally admitted this fact.

Now the secrets have all been exposed. It is impossible to hide them anymore. It is better to admit them directly. The reason why this is a secret is because no one knows about it.

But since it has already been discovered, it is impossible to continue hiding it, because if you look closely, you can still find out. What's more, Hatamoto Gozo has already arranged for people from the Hatamoto family to find out the truth.

So if he wanted to deny or cover it up again, it would be deceiving himself. So after struggling in his heart, Xiao Wu simply admitted it.

"But...but...but I..."

When Hatamoto Natsue heard this, she felt as if her eyes were darkening, because this was the result she least wanted to hear.

So when he heard Xiao Wu admit that he was really the son of Caicheng Yongfu, he was in a trance and seemed to have lost his hearing, and could not hear what Xiao Wu said next.

Perhaps you've often wondered what it feels like to feel like the sky is falling? Well, Hatamoto Natsue feels exactly like the sky is falling right now!

"You approached Miss Xia Jiang to avenge your father, right? You wanted to infiltrate the Hatamoto family and wait for the right opportunity to strike.

Finally, tonight, before you had even had the chance, your identity was suddenly exposed by Mr. Hatamoto Gozo, catching you off guard.

So, you were filled with rage and evil, and you went all out, stabbing old man Hatamoto Gozo to death with your knife. It was a murder in a fit of passion!"

Kogoro Mouri was very good at choosing the time. He directly took over Xiaowu's words and started reasoning.

How should I put it? As the first person to identify the reverse indicator, well, Xiao Wu's suspicion has been ruled out. With his careful reasoning, Maori Kogoro can definitely eliminate one wrong option for everyone, leaving us with the exciting six choices.

"No...it's not like that! No...I didn't kill anyone!" Xiao Wu admitted that he was the son of Yufu Caicheng but did not admit that he killed anyone.

After Maori Kogoro's reasoning and analysis, Xiaowu's defense seemed so pale and powerless. Apart from repeating that he did not kill anyone, he could not say anything.

Not to mention that she couldn't convince other people, even Xia Jiang couldn't believe Xiao Wu's explanation. In her heart, she felt that it was Xiao Wu who killed her grandfather.

So Xia Jiang had a mental breakdown, unable to face the reality. He covered his face and cried, then ran away.

Seeing that Xia Jiang didn't believe him, Xiao Wu wanted to go up and continue explaining, but he couldn't leave at all. In the eyes of others, he was preparing to flee for fear of being punished!

Just then, Xia Jiang's second uncle, Hatamoto Shoji, was quick-witted and grabbed Xiao Wu, stopping him from leaving, and holding Xiao Wu's collar, he said.

"Boy, I thought you were a man of integrity, but I was wrong!"

"Uncle Xiang Er..." Xiao Wu called out in a daze.

"Hmph! Your corsage was at the scene, so your deeds are exposed, right?" Hatamoto Ryuo came up to Xiao Wu with a smug look on his face and mocked him!

"I don't know why the flowers fell there?" Xiao Wu wanted to continue to explain, but no one was willing to listen.

Not to mention that after these people learned that he was the son of Yufu Caicheng, they had already determined that he was the murderer. Even if he did not admit it, everyone would most likely be willing to go with the flow and pin the blame on him.

Now that he knew he was the son of Yufu Zaishiro, even Xia Jiang was unwilling to believe him. Taking advantage of others' misfortunes was a very normal practice in the Hatamoto family.

Only Fujiwara Hiroshi at the scene knew that the murderer was not Xiaowu, and Conan also remained skeptical about the view that Xiaowu was the murderer.

Kogoro Mouri was already very pleased with his powerful reasoning, and he was almost sticking out his tongue in triumph.

Of course, the happiest person among all must be Ichiro Hatamoto. With Xiaowu as the perfect scapegoat, no one paid any attention to him from beginning to end.

If you think about it carefully, it is consistent with his usual taciturn style. Careful colleagues will find that only Ichiro Hatamoto arrived at the crime scene and did not say a word from beginning to end.

Even his father responded to Kogoro Mori's question and told Kogoro Mori who Zaishiro Yufu was, so the real murderer is often the one who is most overlooked.

Among all the people, the couple Hatamoto Akie and his mother Hatamoto Mariko danced the most happily. He was invisible throughout the whole process and no one noticed him until now, including Conan.

However, Fujiwara Hiroshi has known for a long time that he was the one who did all this, but he has no intention of jumping out to expose him at the moment. Fujiwara Hiroshi is also ready to see how the incident develops. If he comes out so early, all the good drama later will be gone.

Apart from saving a few regrettable characters, Fujiwara Hiroshi allowed the others to develop normally. It is obvious that except for Hatamoto Natsue and the honest Hatamoto Kitaro, he did not think that anyone else in the Hatamoto family was worth saving.

That’s right, there is also Hatamoto Hokuro, the character who is like a punching bag in the Hatamoto family. Fujiwara Hiroshi has a good impression of him, and it was because of his kindness that he initially bore the scolding from Hatamoto Gozo.

Fujiwara Hiroshi, who clearly knew the identity of the murderer, was least worried about these two people being harmed, because these two people were important people in Hatamoto Ichiro's heart and would not be in any danger.

He just watched the events unfold silently. Compared to Hatamoto Kitaro, Fujiwara Hiroshi was quite disgusted by the sarcastic Hatamoto Mariko.

Otherwise, Fujiwara Hiroshi wouldn't have been so upset that he would have jumped out and said a few sarcastic words to her, asking her if she did it on purpose or by accident?

No one doubted that Hatamoto Ichiro was just trying to make him feel at ease. What really made Hatamoto Ichiro excited was the breakdown of the relationship between Hatamoto Natsue and Hatamoto Takeshi.

Once Hatamoto Natsue determines that Xiaowu killed her grandfather, then according to the situation, the two of them will definitely not be able to be together again, and that will be Hatamoto Ichiro's chance.

Although he suppressed his feelings for Xia Jiang, as long as there was no one else around Xia Jiang, he had a chance. When Xiao Wu wanted to snatch Xia Jiang from him, he used a trick to send Xiao Wu to prison.

If Hatamoto Gozo tried to stop him from marrying Xia Jiang, even though he was his own grandfather, he would stab him to death with a knife without hesitation to remove this stumbling block.
