The famous criminal in the world of Conan

Chapter 150 Confrontation

After Baimasong finished the arrangement, everyone got on the bus.

After that, everyone started strolling around Shinagawa.

Yes, that's right, just wandering around.

Everyone is actually very confused about this.

Can we find the arsonist by just wandering around?

In response to this, Bai Masong said that he didn’t know, but this was the only thing he could do.

He didn't remember the plot and didn't know how to tell fortunes, so he just relied on these few clues to find the arsonist.

Isn't this just a dream?

Although it has been confirmed that the arsonist will be in Shinagawa, Shinagawa is a town. It is such a large place with all kinds of small and big roads. Where can we find him?

Although Bai Masong is a very powerful policeman and detective, he does not know magic and can only do one person's job.

For example, when looking for the arsonist, we all just need to set up a plan together and then close the net.

Now that the scope has been narrowed, all we have to do is sit back and wait.

Moreover, Bai Masong actually had a little idea behind this action.

His idea was that since this was a plot in Conan, Conan and the Young Detective League would definitely come in handy.

So, as long as we take these children with us, according to the laws of science, we should be able to encounter the arsonist on the road.

So, now all you have to do is wander around the streets.

Time passed quickly and the sky gradually darkened.

I have to say that the principles of science are really useful.

Bai Masong was wandering around with a few kids, and he actually discovered the arsonist.

This guy was dressed in a long trench coat and had a rebellious look. He really thought he was Gin.

He set fire in a corner without paying any attention to anyone around, but was caught on the spot by Bai Masong.

This guy was caught and was still muttering about my child and asking him to grow up quickly.

Bai Masong knocked him out and threw him into the back seat to avoid any noise.

Well, very fast.

(The main reason is that there is nothing interesting about catching this arsonist, so I might as well finish it early and just pass it by.)

"Ding Ding Ding..."

Miwako Sato gently pushed the door open at the entrance of Shuji Kano's western restaurant.

Shikano Shuji stopped cleaning the cups in his hands, looked up, saw who was coming, and smiled.

"It's Miwako, are you off work today?"

"Ah, yes."

Miwako Sato also showed a relaxed smile.

"But, Miwako, as you can see, I'm closed now."

Shikano Shuji said

"That's true, but tomorrow is Uncle Shikano's long-awaited 50th birthday. It should be okay for him to treat me to a drink in advance today."

Miwako Sato said with a smile.

Hearing the words "long-awaited" in Sato Miwako's words, Shikano Shuji secretly became alert.

He said calmly,

"Haha, even though it's my fiftieth birthday, it's just a trivial event, and it can't be called something I've been looking forward to for a long time."

"is it?"

Miwako Sato asked,

"But I think you should be very happy, Uncle Luye. After all, tomorrow is the day when the statute of limitations for your case expires."

Shikano Shuji came over with a bottle of red wine. Hearing this, he was shocked, but he still said,

"I, what case do I have, Miwako, you are joking."

"is it?"

Sato Miwako asked again.

Then he started talking to himself.

He started with the three katakana characters on his father's police book, then mentioned Shuji Shikano's nickname, his unique bat swing technique, and finally his three years abroad.

"So, Uncle Luye, you are the robber from that year."

Miwako Sato straightened her body, stared at Shuji Kano, and spoke word by word.

When Sato Miwako started speaking three katakana, Kano Shuji had already stopped talking.

Now, facing Sato Miwako's question, he neither refused nor admitted it.

He just sat there, with his head half lowered and his eyes cast down, like an old monk sitting still.

The clock in the western restaurant keeps ticking.

“Drip…Drip…Tick…Tick…”

The extremely small mechanical sound seemed unusually loud in this quiet restaurant.

As the hour hand and minute hand finally jumped simultaneously, Shuji Kano breathed a sigh of relief.

Miwako Sato seemed to have lost all her fighting spirit, and her straight body gradually bent down.

She murmured to herself,

"After all, after all, it's still too late?"

With tears in her eyes, she whispered,

"Uncle Luye, I, I just want the truth now..."

Shuji Kano had already relaxed at this time, but looking at the appearance of Sato Miwako, his feeling of shame resurfaced.

"Ugh......."

He sighed,

"I'm sorry, Miwako."

"it's me."

"At first, I didn't want to. I didn't even think about killing him."

"You, are you saying you didn't intend to kill my father?"

Sato Miwako asked.

Shikano Shuji shook his head, his tone serious.

"No, I mean I didn't intend to kill the guard. I just swung the butt of the rifle and he died unexpectedly."

When Miwako Sato heard this, anger suddenly burned in her eyes.

Doesn't what Shuji Shikano said mean that he regretted killing the guard but not regretting killing his old friend?

However, I heard Shikano Shuji continue to say,

"Your father, he rushed up on his own."

After hearing this, Sato Miwako was stunned.

Shikano Shuji recalled,

"At first, when I thought about the serious crimes of robbery and murder that I had committed, and that I would have to spend the rest of my life in prison, I felt that the future was extremely dark."

"So, I saw the truck passing by, and I made up my mind and rushed over."

"But, but I didn't expect that,"

Shikano Shuji said with a trembling voice,

"I didn't expect your father would actually rush over and push me out..."

Hearing this, Sato Miwako couldn't hold back her tears.

Maybe she did it to lower Shuji Kano's guard before, but now she was really crying for her father.

"I know what he said last."

Shikano Shuji continued to speak, and at this time he clenched his fists, trying hard not to cry.

"He, he asked me to turn myself in."

"I, I was really, really confused!"

"My instinct for survival made me subconsciously flee from there, flee from your father."
