Conan and Gin are both my brothers, what's wrong with meeting them once?
Chapter 294 It's just killing people, why blow up the building?
After learning that Conan had met Hara Yoshiaki, Kudo Kazuma asked a few more questions and learned that he had also met Congressman Oki Iwamatsu.
That damned man has met Death; maybe he really won't need to lift a finger.
That's what Kudo Kazuma thought, and that's exactly what happened.
He was woken up by a phone call from Conan around 9 a.m. the next day.
Congressman Iwamatsu Ohki is dead. He was assassinated in the luxurious presidential suite on the 67th floor of Tower B of the Twin Towers skyscraper.
Because Conan and his friends were present when Oki Iwamatsu asked Tokiwa Mio, the owner of the building, to move in, they were summoned to the Metropolitan Police Department by Inspector Megure for a brief questioning.
"Police determined that Representative Oki was murdered between 10 PM last night and midnight, and the murder weapon was likely a knife. However, no murder weapon was found at the scene. Instead, a strange small wine glass that had been split in two was discovered, which the murderer may have deliberately left behind as a clue to his identity..."
"No, is this murderer mentally unstable?" Kudo Kazuma couldn't help but interrupt. "A normal person would want no one to know who they are after committing a murder, right? This person is definitely not normal."
On the other end of the phone, Conan looked quite helpless.
Did Yizhen's mind become even more outrageous after killing someone?
Who in their right mind would commit murder?
He sighed and said, "The police have questioned everyone, and apart from Mr. Hara Yoshiaki, no one else has a clear alibi. Moreover, many of their reasonings sound plausible, so we'll probably have to investigate the people who were present at the time to find out who the murderer really is."
Kazuma Kudo nodded.
Got it, famous building, serial killer, unknown murderer.
It's definitely going to be a theatrical release.
But with a traitor like Hara Yoshiaki around, wouldn't that implicate the organization?
Conan took a picture of the small wine glass he found in the victim's hand at the crime scene and sent it to Kazuma Kudo. Then he and the three kids went to investigate the suspects other than Mio Tokiwa.
The investigation revealed that each of the four elementary school students brought back a cartoon-style portrait that evening.
When Kudo Kazuma heard that there were also chibi-style portraits, he immediately rushed to the agency to see what was going on.
Seeing the chibi Conan in the portrait with his wise eyes, Kazuma Kudo almost died laughing.
"So that Ruyuefengshui just kicked you out like that?"
Conan sighed helplessly, "Yeah, he even said that kids shouldn't try to solve cases like police officers, without cooperating at all. That's quite in line with his old-fashioned personality."
Kudo Kazuma pointed to the adorable chibi-style portrait: "Can someone who can draw such a picture really be old-fashioned?"
"That's not his main focus. Master Kisaragi is best at painting Mount Fuji; it's said he's painted Mount Fuji from all sorts of angles and at all times..."
Upon hearing this, Kudo Kazuma's eyes widened in surprise.
Painting Mount Fuji?
Conan's words reminded me that the old man was the one who killed someone in order to paint Mount Fuji.
Moreover, the small wine glass he left on the spot, when turned upside down, actually looks quite like Mount Fuji. As for why it's split in two, it seems that it's because from the old man's perspective at home, the twin towers happen to divide Mount Fuji in two.
Enraged, the Mount Fuji enthusiasts decided to kill everyone associated with the Twin Towers to avenge their beloved Mount Fuji.
Then he remembered that this movie also had the classic scene where Gin recognized people by their hairstyles, shot Sonoko, and almost triggered Kyogoku Makoto's Super Saiyan form, leading to the complete annihilation of the Black Organization.
Wait... does this mean that Gin and his crew blew up this building?
Thinking of this, he immediately sent a message using Bond, asking Gin if he planned to blow up the twin towers.
Gin: [?]
[Are you out of your mind? It's just murder, why blow up the building?]
Kazuma Kudo was speechless.
He seemed to have forgotten that in the original story, Ai Haibara often called her sister's old apartment at night so she could hear her sister's voice more often. Gin overheard her saying she was going to attend the opening ceremony of the Twin Towers skyscraper, which led to his subsequent actions.
Sulli is practically "dead" in the organization's eyes right now. As long as she doesn't act in front of organization members who know her, she's unlikely to be recognized.
Besides, her older sister is with her now. Apart from the occasional annoyance of Shuichi Akai crowding around during their meals, if they really have something on their minds, the two sisters can just hug each other and talk. In this situation, of course, Gin won't leave any openings...
However, speaking of flaws, back in the vampire castle, Rum used a fake Sherry to test him. Could it be that he realized Sherry was still alive?
Given Rum's suspicious nature, he probably wouldn't do anything to attract attention before confirming that Ai Haibara is Sherry. Now that Rum can't say anything, do the others around him know his suspicions?
Do Binga, who is dead, and Curaçao, who is still unconscious, know this?
Most importantly, does Kashasa, who seems to be trusted by Rum more than the other two, know this?
"What are you thinking about?" Conan asked curiously. "Why are you suddenly spacing out?"
Kazuma Kudo shrugged: "It's not that I was spacing out. I just suddenly thought of that upside-down little wine glass. Doesn't it look like Mount Fuji?"
As he spoke, he took out the photo that Conan had sent him from his phone.
Conan nodded: "It does look quite similar. You mean, the culprit is Master Kisaragi?"
Kazuma Kudo shrugged: "Well, I'm really not sure. After all, I haven't met them in person, nor have I asked each of them like you guys do."
"It's not everyone, really. It was quite late after we left Kisaragi's house, so we decided to visit Mr. Hara again tomorrow."
Conan frowned and said, "As for the issue of this small wine glass... Sonoko also said that this small wine glass looks a lot like a saucer used to hold paint when painting... She also suspects Master Kisaragi."
"But everyone has their own theories, and they all sound plausible, yet they're all somewhat ambiguous. Ultimately, there's still no conclusive evidence..."
"Well, there's nothing we can do then. We can only see if the Metropolitan Police Department makes any progress." Kudo Kazuma said, then asked, "Do you think he would agree if I asked Inspector Megure for permission to go to the scene and take you with me?"
Conan's eyes lit up: "I think we should give it a try!"
Kudo Kazuma immediately called Inspector Megure and was granted permission to spend an hour that evening visiting the crime scene. Takagi would pick them up at 7 p.m. and accompany them there.
While waiting for Takagi, Kudo Kazuma decided to stay at the Mouri Detective Agency for dinner. Ostensibly, it was to avoid cooking, but actually…
Of course, it's to create an alibi.
His yang clone had already arrived at Hara Yoshiaki's house and stabbed Hara Yoshiaki in the heart, killing him.
After taking photos of Hara Yoshiaki's corpse and absorbing the scattered spiritual essence, the Yang clone turned to look at Hara Yoshiaki's soul beside him.
"Killing you is an order from the organization. There's no other way; you're a traitor to the organization. But..."
He tilted his head, staring at Hara Yoshiaki's somewhat confused soul, and asked, "Want to come work for me at Kurosawa Software Company? I'll give you a free resurrection!"
Hara Yoshiaki's soul was immediately filled with question marks: "?"
