Conan and Gin are both my brothers, what's wrong with meeting them once?
Chapter 296 Is this building absolutely necessary to be blown up?
In the original work, because Gin appeared under the Twin Towers, and because all the data on Hara Yoshiaki's computer was deleted and destroyed after Hara Yoshiaki was killed, Conan deduced that he might be a member of the organization.
However, Gin did not appear here, and Kudo Kazuma, reminded by Hara Yoshiaki's spirit, only deleted the content related to the organization from his computer, so naturally it did not arouse suspicion.
In other words, Hara Yoshiaki's murder has become an unsolved case.
These past few days, Conan has been studying the two murder cases as soon as he gets out of school, and he's had much less time to act with Ran. Fortunately, he has an excellent memory and has already memorized the lines, so it's not a big problem.
After Kudo Kazuma recreated a puppet body for Hara Yoshiaki that had no resemblance to his original appearance, he took him to Kurosawa Software Company and handed him over to Tsugami Yuuki.
"Get familiar with the company's operations; I'll assign you important tasks in the future."
After making empty promises to Hara Yoshiaki, Kudo Kazuma abandoned him to Tsugami Yuuki.
He himself packed up, took the invitation, and went to Nishitama City with Conan and his friends to attend the opening ceremony of the Twin Towers.
Upon seeing Sonoko Suzuki, Kazuma Kudo couldn't help but chuckle. This girl really did have the same perm as Ai Haibara from the original work.
Thankfully Gin isn't coming this time, otherwise this would be a dangerous hairstyle.
Upon arriving at the venue, Ran helped Conan get food, and Haruka Haibara helped Ai Haibara get food. As for Kazuma Kudo... he glanced at the three timid kids next to him who were huddled up like quails, and then stuffed all the food into his own mouth.
In the center of the venue, there was a bright red, brand-new Ford Mustang sports car. As Kudo Kazuma was admiring it with curiosity, Tokiwa Mio on the stage proposed an activity where players could win the sports car by playing games.
The game was called "Guess in 30 Seconds," which involved counting 30 seconds based on your intuition without looking at a watch. Whoever guessed the most accurately or the shortest time won and could take the sports car home.
Seeing the three mischievous kids discussing the competition, Kudo Kazuma squatted down next to Conan and asked, "Do you want to? I can help you win."
Without a watch, he could easily cheat using the system, since no one could see it anyway.
Conan looked speechless: "What do you want it for? I can't drive it."
Kudo Kazuma ruffled his hair: "It's okay, you can wait until you grow up and get your driver's license before you drive."
Conan's eyes widened in surprise: "Shut up!"
"Forget about it." Kudo Kazuma shrugged. If he remembered correctly, this car was just like the one from the Water Crystal movie; it wouldn't survive past the movie.
Many people participated in the competition, but in the end, it was Ran Mouri's father, Kogoro Mouri, who won first place.
Kogoro Mouri was overjoyed to suddenly receive a sports car. He patted Conan hard and laughed heartily, so hard that Kazuma Kudo suspected he was doing it on purpose.
After the game of winning a sports car ended, the banquet host introduced Kisaragi Hōsui, Tokiwa Mio's teacher, a national treasure-level painter, and a master painter who specialized in painting Mount Fuji.
As the introduction of Ruyue Fengshui began, all the lights in the venue went out, leaving only the large screen on the stage lit up, displaying Ruyue Fengshui's paintings one by one.
Of course, the main purpose of the introduction and display is to tell everyone that a master of Kisaragi Minezu's caliber specially gifted her a new work to celebrate the completion of her student Tokiwa Mio's twin-tower skyscraper.
"Next, let me proudly introduce Master Kisaragi's new work, 'Mount Fuji in Spring Snow'!"
As the host gestured, the curtain behind him slowly opened, revealing Mount Fuji covered in spring snow on the large screen, and...
Mio Tokiwa was suspended in front of a large screen, which perfectly bisected Mount Fuji on the screen.
In an instant, the entire audience was shocked.
Kogoro Mouri was the first to rush forward.
Kazuma Kudo and Conan followed closely behind.
Under Kogoro Mouri's command, the stage curtain was raised and Mio Tokiwa was lowered, but unfortunately, she was already dead when she was lowered.
On the stage, there was a small wine glass, identical to those in the first two cases, that hadn't been split in two.
Ran immediately called Inspector Megure, and Megure, Takagi, and Shiratori, who were waiting downstairs at the building because of the serial murders, rushed up immediately.
While Kogoro Mouri was busy questioning people and Conan was busy searching for clues, Kazuma Kudo immediately sent a message to Yoshiaki Hara.
[Mio Tokiwa has been murdered. The Tokiwa Group is likely to experience significant turmoil soon. Could you recommend some Tokiwa Group employees in Tsugami who are suitable for game projects, bond projects, or new projects, so he can help recruit some new staff? You'll get an extra bonus for every new person you recruit!]
On his first day at work, having just added his boss Bond as a friend, Hara Yoshiaki was assigned this absurd task: "?"
He was full of questions and couldn't help but send a message to Kazuma Kudo.
Did you kill him?
Kudo Kazuma rolled his eyes, too lazy to even reply.
Why do people from this kind of organization only think about killing? They should do more work; it's not like he won't give them bonuses.
Over there, Kogoro Mouri was laughing smugly at himself for coming up with some brilliant deduction when Conan interrupted him, saying, "I think it's just random nonsense."
The father-in-law immediately flew into a rage, and snapped, "What did you say?!"
Conan pouted: "Because the little wine glass didn't break this time..."
Upon hearing this, Kudo Kazuma looked up at the painting on the big screen, then closed his left eye and placed his right index finger in front of his right eye.
It perfectly divides Mount Fuji on the screen in two, just like the Tokiwa Mio statue that was previously displayed here.
“Perhaps, this little wine glass doesn’t need to break…” He moved his index finger. “This, which is Ms. Tokiwa’s corpse, has already split Mount Fuji in two.”
Several people were stunned.
Conan's eyes lit up: "Mount Fuji?"
His gaze immediately fell on the small wine glass: "I remember you said last time that this small wine glass looks like Mount Fuji when it's upside down..."
As he spoke, he turned to look at the artist of the painting—Kisaragi Hōsui.
Kazuma Kudo then approached Chinami Sawaguchi, Tokiwa Mio's secretary, and asked, "Ms. Sawaguchi, may I ask, did Ms. Tokiwa buy the necklace herself, or was it a gift from someone?"
"It was a gift from Master Kisaragi."
"Is that so?" Kudo Kazuma also looked at Kisaragi Hidemizu and asked with a half-smile, "Master Kisaragi, could you tell everyone where you bought this necklace?"
"The thread used to string this necklace is incredibly strong! It can even support an adult without breaking. That's amazing. Could it be... that you modified it?"
His words startled everyone on stage.
Conan raised an eyebrow and asked, "Master Kisaragi, could you show everyone what's inside your cane? There seems to be a sound coming from inside it, but it wasn't there before you came on stage."
Ruyue Fengshui's expression changed upon being questioned by the two brothers, and he said with a wry smile, "I thought we wouldn't be discovered..."
He sighed and prepared to give a confession from the murderer.
Before he could finish speaking, the ground suddenly began to shake.
At the same time, a violent explosion rang out outside...
Kudo Kazuma was completely dumbfounded.
No, is it absolutely necessary to bomb this building?
Besides, Gin didn't come, so who did it?
