Conan: After teaching the protagonist, they offered their loyalty.

Inside the villa, the group unwrapped the bandages from the bandaged monster.

Even though he knew that Fuhesh was protecting Miss Lan and acting in self-defense.

But when he saw that the other person's facial features had been completely sunken in, he couldn't help but gasp.

"This...this is Takahashi?"

At first, no one thought the bandaged monster was the chubby Takahashi, but they could vaguely tell from his distorted features that he was Takahashi Ryoichi.

"No, that's not right. If Takahashi is the bandaged monster and has already been... subdued by Mr. Fushiguro, then who was that who just floated past the window?" Ayako Suzuki suddenly asked.

Everyone who heard this felt a chill run down their spines.

Conan's lips curled slightly; he understood.

Why is the other party constantly attacking Xiaolan, and what exactly is the figure floating past the window?

"The other side had set a trap beforehand, and with the bad weather, the trap was triggered," Fuheshen'er explained casually, propping his head up with one hand while sitting on the sofa.

“Yes…that’s how it is,” Kakutani said. “When I saw Chikako’s body just now, there was a model of the bandaged monster next to her.”

Conan, who was just about to remind everyone, was speechless.

The case was resolved perfectly, but something still feels off.

Something seems to be missing.

This wasn't just the case this time; the previous two cases were also like this.

Conan scratched his head, completely baffled.

After learning that everything was just a prop, everyone breathed a slight sigh of relief.

"But... why would Takahashi do that?!" Ota asked, somewhat puzzled.

“Back then…” Ayako Suzuki sighed, realizing something, and revealed the hidden story from back then.

It turns out that she had suspected something was amiss with Atsuko's death before, and her investigation revealed that Chikako's work was plagiarized.

But Atsuko had already passed away by then, and she originally wanted to ask Chikako today.

Unfortunately... the tragedy has already occurred.

After hearing this, no one spoke...they remained silent.

The next day...

After the rain stopped, the group reconnected the phone line and called the police.

The Metropolitan Police Department's helicopter was dispatched, and Inspector Megure, wearing a beige trench coat and a matching hat, disembarked and learned about the situation from the others.

After learning that the root of all problems was Fuheshtar.

Inspector Megure walked up to the other person, cold sweat breaking out on his forehead.

The other person seemed to have everything under control, giving off a calm and reliable feeling.

It makes me feel so safe.

I wish he were there for me every time there was a case.

Now that his younger brother Kudo has disappeared, he desperately needs a replacement.

"Ahem, you are..." Inspector Megure wanted to ask something.

“We’ve met before,” Vohsheen said with a serious expression. “Vohsheen is a detective.”

"Oh, Fushiguro, I was wondering why this sounded so familiar, haha." Inspector Megure chuckled to cover his embarrassment, his expression turning serious. "Then, please describe in detail the course of the case and the killer's methods."

"As for the details of the case..." Fuheshen thought for a moment and then said, "The murderer wanted to attack Xiaolan, and I acted in self-defense."

Inspector Megure nodded subconsciously, listening attentively, but when he saw that the other person didn't seem inclined to speak again, he sensed that something was amiss.

"No, that's all?" Inspector Megure asked, somewhat surprised.

Normally, shouldn't a detective deduce a lot of things, then personally demonstrate the methods, explain the motive and various pieces of evidence, leaving everyone speechless?

“That’s all.” Fuheshen’er nodded calmly.

"Ahem, Inspector Megure, the situation is actually like this." Conan couldn't stand it anymore and jumped in. "This time the murderer is very vicious. The murder weapon is an axe. The murderer committed the crime in an extremely clean and efficient manner, dismembering the victim... (the victim's dismembered body). The murderer disguised the body as being wrapped in bandages."

Conan, with the innocent demeanor of a child, speaks of chilling methods of committing crimes.

Apart from Ran and Inspector Megure, who both felt that everything was normal, everyone else stared wide-eyed.

Why was this child able to describe that scene in such detail after seeing it?

This style looks a bit off...

Everyone turned their heads to look at Fuheishen, who was stroking his chin and thinking seriously.

"This child..." The young police officer who had just joined the station and was following Inspector Megure was unaware of the situation. After noting down the details of the crime, he asked, "Could he be Detective Fushiguro's son?"

It looks just like it; this little child's big eyes are filled with nothing but death.

Even though he had clearly seen the deceased's face, he still spoke of it without changing his expression; it was exactly the same as that gentleman's.

“No…” Fuheshen shook his head. “I don’t have such a disgraceful son. If he were my son, then the Bandaged Monster would not have had the chance to kill anyone.”

"This child is staying at our house," Xiao Lan quickly said after hearing this. "He's not Shen Erge's son."

Conan stared at the young policeman with the same questioning look he would give a victim.

How could he possibly be Shen Ge's son? That policeman is really something.

The young policeman immediately shut up after sensing the sudden malice around him.

"Alright, that's the gist of the case." Inspector Megure stopped the conversation and adjusted his hat.

He instructed the police to dispose of the two bodies properly and then sent Shen Er and the others down the mountain.

After saying goodbye to Sonoko Suzuki, Jinji Fushiguro drove Conan and Ran Mouri to the Mouri Detective Agency.

"Shengege, where do you live? Can I come over to your house sometime?" Conan asked curiously.

"404, 2-chome, Beikacho," Fushiguro replied calmly.

"Has Shen Ge Ge had any requests lately?" Conan asked again.

"There might be more later," Fukushige interrupted Conan. "We've arrived."

Ran Mouri listened quietly to the conversation, and as she got out of the car, she said gratefully to Fukushiro, "Brother Fukushiro, thank you so much this time. It's lunchtime, so please stay and have lunch here."

"No need, Ran." Fuheshen politely declined Ran's offer. "There's no need for thanks between us. You know why."

After casually uttering a remark, Fu Heishen drove off.

Xiao Lan blushed slightly upon hearing this, thinking about what happened in the woods.

Conan pursed his lips and stared at the other car with a displeased expression.

What kind of relationship do you have? How can anyone compare to him?

However... Conan's expression turned serious.

The bugging device has been placed; now we just need to keep an eye on the other side's movements.

This will allow us to find out exactly what Shen'erge is like...

The next second, the car window opened, and something resembling a listening device was thrown out, only to be crushed by the tires a second later.

Conan stood frozen in place.

Finished!
