Conan and Gin are both my brothers, what's wrong with meeting them once?
Chapter 217, sentence 1, breaks everyone's defenses.
A window in a room on the third floor was broken.
Kogoro Mouri paused for a moment, then ran straight upstairs.
Conan and Heiji Hattori spoke almost simultaneously.
"Lan, stay here and keep an eye on that window!"
"Kazuha, just to be on the safe side, go and fetch Uncle Shigematsu!"
After saying those two sentences, the two of them followed Kogoro Mouri upstairs with perfect understanding.
Kudo Kazuma shrugged speechlessly and followed.
When he got to the third floor, Conan and Heiji Hattori were knocking on the door.
Kazuha ran over and said, "I asked around, and they all said... they haven't seen Uncle Shigematsu lately."
Heiji Hattori frowned: "But the keys to all the rooms in this house are on him..."
Kogoro Mouri let out a long breath and said in a deep voice, "Let's break down the door."
After breaking down the door, by the light of the corridor, everyone saw a long trail of blood on the floor, which snaked all the way into the suite where the lights were on.
Heiji Hattori and Conan took the lead, followed by Kogoro Mouri and the others, and together they walked to the half-open door to the inner room.
When Hattori Heiji pushed open the door, everyone was taken aback.
Akio Shigematsu was sitting under the table facing the door, his white shirt stained with large patches of blood, and a trail of blood stretched out from beneath him...
This time, it was Kazuha who delivered her scream.
As Kudo Kazuma, who was lagging behind the others, was about to take out his phone to call the police, he suddenly noticed a rustling sound behind him and immediately turned around.
"who!"
In the dimly lit room, where the lights were off, a dark figure crept out from behind the curtains, attempting to sneak out under the cover of furniture such as tables and sofas.
After being exposed by Kudo Kazuma, the other person froze and was about to run away.
When it comes to speed, Kudo Kazuma has never been afraid of anyone. He immediately caught up with his opponent in a few steps, grabbed him, tripped him, and pinned him to the ground.
"Why are you running!" He pressed the other person down forcefully. "You're not the murderer, are you?"
Kogoro Mouri, Conan, Ran Mouri, and Kazuha quickly surrounded the culprit.
The eldest daughter of the Mori family, who was the first to arrive, immediately switched on the light in the outer room, frowning and saying with displeasure, "What happened? Why are you screaming?"
Behind her were the rest of the Morizono family who had come over after hearing the screams.
Under the lights, everyone immediately recognized that the person being held down by Kudo Kazuma was Morizono's son, Morizono Kikuto, the other protagonist of tomorrow's wedding.
Hattori Heiji asked with a mixture of doubt and regret, "So... the culprit has been found just like that?"
Solving cases is not difficult for Conan and Heiji Hattori, let alone writing out the process while looking at the answer.
With the real culprit right in front of them, the two quickly deduced the crime. However, the motive was revealed by Kikuto Morizono himself after being caught red-handed.
It turns out that he fell in love with his fiancée, Katagiri Kaede, the moment he saw her. Katagiri Kaede did indeed visit his house frequently afterward, which must have been for him! Coincidentally, the butler, Shigematsu Akio, acted as matchmaker and brought the two together, so he immediately agreed.
However, to his surprise, on the eve of the wedding, Shigematsu Akio told him that Katagiri Kaede liked the maid Sakuraba and advised him to let go and give Katagiri Kaede happiness.
Kikuto Morizono couldn't stand this insult, so he immediately plotted a murder, ending Akio Shigematsu's life. He even framed Yuji Sakuraba, waiting for Sakuraba to be taken away by the police so he could happily continue his marriage with Kaede Katagiri the next day.
Who would have thought that his plan would be thwarted by Kazuma Kudo after only one step...
The groom-to-be was taken away by the Metropolitan Police Department, so the wedding the next day could not be held.
After this incident, Hattori Heiji and Toyama Kazuha could no longer stay at the Morizono residence, so they simply said goodbye and left.
Originally, Kazuma Kudo meant that he had several guest rooms at his house, and the two of them could sleep there. However, unexpectedly, Kazuha Toyama and Ran suddenly became very close, and Ran warmly invited Kazuha to sleep in the same room with her.
Kogoro Mouri's room definitely couldn't fit three people, so Heiji Hattori and Conan ended up being packed up and crammed into Kazuma Kudo's room.
During this time, Hattori Heiji was particularly enthusiastic and said to Kudo Kazuma, "Aren't you coming to Osaka in a few days to handle some business? Why don't you take Kudo with you? I can invite you to stay at my house."
Kudo Kazuma sighed, realizing that all this enthusiasm was directed at Conan.
He smirked, "I'll be going with Tsugami, so we probably won't be staying overnight. Even if we are, we'll stay in a hotel, okay?"
"If you really want my brother to come visit you, why don't you ask Kazuha for help? Anyway, Ran knows my brother's identity now, so why don't you have Kazuha invite Ran, and then have Ran bring my brother along?"
Kudo Kazuma gave the two of them a bunch of ideas, and as they talked, they started talking about the software company in Osaka that was on the verge of bankruptcy. Hattori Heiji suddenly seemed to have thought of something.
"So that's the company! They're on the verge of bankruptcy, and I think I know why—their former president was involved in a murder case, which led to a financial crisis. I even helped solve that case."
Kudo Kazuma twitched the corner of his mouth.
Got it, it's still the Grim Reaper's achievement, just the Osaka Grim Reaper's achievement...
The next day, Kudo Kazuma and the other two went to the agency. Ran saw that Hattori Heiji was wearing a white shirt with black vertical stripes, and her eyes lit up. She then dragged Kazuha back to her room.
A short while later, Kazuha, who was also wearing a white blouse with black vertical stripes, was pushed out of the room by Ran.
"Okay," Xiaolan said with a smile, "Isn't this great?"
Heiji Hattori tilted his head: "I don't mind wearing the same outfit, it's just that it looks a lot like..."
The thought that she would actually be wearing matching outfits with Heiji made Kazuha blush a little.
"They look like siblings!"
Hattori Heiji's words left everyone speechless.
Kudo Kazuma tilted his head and said to Ran, "With Hattori's emotional intelligence being even lower than my brother's, I don't think it's any use worrying about him."
"Speaking of which..." Conan couldn't help but stare at Heiji Hattori and ask Ran beside him, "Ran-neechan, why do you and that Heiji wear so many similar styles of clothes..."
Smelling the sour smell that filled the air around him, Kudo Kazuma ruffled his older brother's hair with his hand.
"Is it possible, I mean, is it possible that Ran and Hattori have similar tastes?"
Upon hearing this, Conan blurted out, "Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"
Shouldn't Lan be someone whose aesthetic sense aligns with his?
“Why not?” Kazuma Kudo immediately produced evidence. “If they didn’t share the same aesthetic, how could they both like Shinichi Kudo?”
"What are you saying?!" Ran and Conan exclaimed in unison, their faces turning red to the roots of their necks.
"Eh—" Kazuha exclaimed incredulously, "Heiji, you actually like that Kudo guy?"
Hattori Heiji looked utterly speechless: "What kind of liking is that! Don't listen to that other Kudo's nonsense, damn it!"
Kogoro Mouri punched Conan on the head, then glared at Kazuma Kudo and said, "Don't talk nonsense, you brat!"
One sentence was enough to break everyone's defenses.
Kazuma Kudo tilted his head.
This is true strength.
