Seven years ago, timeline.
Fujiwara Yu was diligently searching for the Child of Destiny named "Edogawa Conan," believing that only by finding him could he gain permanent residency in...
When the secret of the jacket was discovered, Tatsuaki Shibata knew he was doomed.
His carefully planned murder method did not even last more than two hours in front of the police. This policeman named Sosuke Takagi is really scary. I'm afraid he must have suspected that he was the murderer a long time ago.
Tatsuaki Shibata knew that he was powerless to defend himself, so he decided to give up. He sat down on the sofa and looked coldly at the body of Shinji Asakura covered with a white cloth, with no intention of repenting at all.
Thinking about what he had experienced, he even felt that his methods were not cruel enough. If he hadn't run out of time, he really wanted to stab him a few more times.
"Why? Mr. Shibata, why did you kill Mr. Asakura? Aren't you his fan?!" Kazama Kiyoko looked puzzled. She couldn't understand why fans would wave blades at their idols. She had rushed all the way from Hokkaido, but now the teacher she had been longing to see was turned into a cold corpse. This was really unbearable for her.
"A fan? Hahahaha!" Shibata Tatsuaki laughed a few times as if he had heard something very interesting. Then he said dissatisfiedly, "I used to be considered his fan, but after my girlfriend cheated on me, I knew this guy was just a liar!"
Fujiwara Yuu was never interested in criminal motives. He looked at Yamamura So with an expressionless face, suggesting that he was ready to handcuff this guy and escort him away. Yamamura So made an "OK" gesture, but he did not act immediately. Instead, he waited for Shibata Tatsuaki to finish his words.
Nishimura Shigeiwa, who was relatively quiet, frowned and asked after hearing what Shibata said:
"Shibata-san, you don't think it's Asakura-sensei's fault that your girlfriend cheated on you, do you?"
"What else?
!”
Tatsuaki Shibata suddenly jumped up from the sofa. His emotions got out of control when he mentioned this matter. He reached out and tried to grab Nishimura Shigeiwa's collar, but soon realized that he couldn't do it.
Fujiwara Yu calmly grasped his wrist and pushed him hard, causing him to fall back onto the sofa. His indifferent eyes were like a silent warning, causing Shibata Tatsuaki's face to change. After two dry coughs, he continued:
"I found my girlfriend by reading 'The Straight Man's Essential Dating Guide'. I imitated the quotes in the book and impressed her with my sincerity. We were very sweet when we first started dating, and I was sure she would be my future wife. But who knew I was being deceived the whole time? She was just trying to have fun with me from the beginning. She said I was too boring and wanted to seek excitement!"
"But what does this have to do with Mr. Asakura?" Kiyoko Kazama completely couldn't understand Tatsuaki Shibata's motive for murder. Love is a matter between two people. Even if there is the intervention of a third party, you should deal with it between yourselves. What does it have to do with the innocent Shinji Asakura?
"How come it doesn't matter anymore?!" Shibata Tatsuaki wanted to get up from the sofa, but when he felt a gaze locked on him, he could only cross his legs unhappily and snorted coldly, "Humph, he teaches people how to fall in love, but now he's causing my girlfriend to cheat. If it's not his fault, then whose is it? Why are you defending a fraudulent author? What? You want some excitement too?"
"You!" Kiyoko Kazama was so angry that her body was shaking. She had never thought that there was someone so unreasonable. It was obviously her own relationship problem, so why did she blame all the mistakes on irrelevant people? He was simply an unreasonable madman.
When Fujiwara Yu saw this scene, he said that he had never seen such a thing in his life. The longer he lived in this world, the more psychopaths he saw.
He reached out and took the handcuffs from Yamamura Cao, and roughly pulled up the shaking Shibata Tatsuaki. While handcuffing him, he did not forget to taunt:
"It seems you've admitted you're useless. You relied on books to find a girlfriend... Does your current behavior count as destroying your bridges?"
Without giving Tatsuaki Shibata a chance to refute, Fujiwara Yu directly took off his gloves and stuffed them into his mouth, saying that it was to prevent him from biting his tongue out of shame, and that he did this for his own good.
Yamamura Sou took Shibata Tatsuaki into the police car. He rolled down the window and looked at Takagi Sosuke standing beside him, and said with a smile:
"Thank you for your guidance, Senior Ying Si. I learned a lot from you this time!"
"No need to be polite. We may have a chance to meet again in the future."
"I'll be looking forward to it. Senior, I'll be leaving first!"
After watching the police car leave, Fujiwara Yuu let out a deep sigh and pulled out the business card Shinji Asakura had given him at the supermarket. He hadn't expected something like this to happen. He put the name card back in his pocket and walked towards the parking lot.
After getting into the car, he didn't start the car in a hurry. Instead, he took out his cell phone and called Akemi Miyano.
"Hey, Ayou, you should have arrived in Gunma Prefecture now, right?" Akemi Miyano, who was idle at home with nothing to do, was studying the newly bought coffee machine. She wanted to learn some new skills during the time she stayed at home.
"We're here, but something happened here, so we're heading back to Tokyo."
Miyano Akemi was slightly taken aback when she heard this. She noticed that Fujiwara Yuu was not in a good mood and guessed what had happened. She put down the hand-cranked grinder in her hand and said in a gentle voice:
"So what kind of food do you plan to eat for dinner to heal you?"
"Hmm... I'm craving something sweet. Can you make me some edamame cream daifuku?"
"Okay, then drive slowly. I'll go to the supermarket to buy some edamame first."
"Um."
Fujiwara Yu's mood improved significantly after he hung up the phone. He drove his car back home and wanted to listen to some music to relieve his depressed mood, but an email was sent directly to his mobile phone, and the sender was Morofushi Kagemitsu.
He had no choice but to park the car on the side of the road. After seeing the content of the email, a hint of surprise appeared in his eyes.
[Zhufushi Jingguang: I'm on a business trip to the United States with Shirley and Vodka. The organization seems to be very interested in longevity.]
Did Gin actually arrange for Vodka to travel with Zhufu Jingguang? It seems he is testing Scotland's identity.
Haha, this guy is really suspicious. He is really a very troublesome type.
However, this also shows that Gin attaches great importance to and trusts Vodka. He never expected that such a cruel and ruthless person would also have subordinates he cares about. This surprised him.
Fujiwara Yuu rested his chin on his hand as he read the rest of the email. He wondered if the organization was actually interested in longevity. He thought of the drug Miyano Shiho was developing. Could it be that the research team's testimony was the development of a drug that could prolong life?
If this is true, the organization's purpose is quite superficial. It is exactly the same as the dreams of those bigwigs and there is nothing novel about it.
[Fujiwara Yuu: We'll discuss this in detail next time we meet. Please be careful.]
