Chapter 524
Although he knew that Usaku Saiki was often elusive, Edogawa Conan was still shocked by how elusive he was.
Where did you come from, Brother Bo Ye?! You weren't even in the store a moment ago!
In other words, did Brother Bo enter when the power went out, accurately predict what was about to happen in the darkness, and prevent the attack from occurring in time?
this……
Just then, the bewildered ordinary people finally realized who was being held down on the ground.
"Daji-kun?!"
"What's going on? Why is there a knife here?!"
Amuro Tooru quickly regained his senses and stepped forward to subdue the assailant in place of Usui Saiki. He then turned to Edogawa Conan and said, "Call the police immediately."
Conan Edogawa quickly called a police officer he knew.
Heiji Hattori had already figured it out; he was all too familiar with this tactic: "They come first, hide in the bathroom, then try to cause a power outage, take the opportunity to pop out, kill someone, and then go back, trying to justify themselves by saying they don't know how people sit outside, or aren't they afraid of killing the wrong person in the dark?"
Amuro Tooru also bent down and picked up the toilet paper roll from the ground: "Using such a long sushi knife, you must have been thinking of using this to prevent blood from splattering on yourself."
Usakabe Saiki, already sitting down quite casually across from Edogawa Conan, said, "As expected of Black Friday, nothing happened all day, but then a case came up at night."
Conan Edogawa had already finished making the call to the police, and upon hearing this, his lips twitched: "Is it possible that you didn't encounter any trouble all day because you didn't even leave the house?"
Bo Yezaki smiled and said, "You seem to know a lot."
Conan Edogawa shut up.
Meanwhile, the people at the next table were still questioning why this person suddenly wanted to kill someone when everyone was just having a nice birthday celebration.
His girlfriend was especially shocked: "Why would you do that?"
"Because I'm really annoyed!" the assailant yelled. "I'm your boyfriend, but you only call me by my surname, while you call this guy by his first name. He's always flirting with you, there's no sense of distance at all... Is this how childhood sweethearts behave? You two are obviously hiding something from me, aren't you?! He's actually your ex-boyfriend, isn't he? And I didn't intend to kill him, I just wanted to teach him a lesson!"
"We...we're not in that kind of relationship..."
"So what's your relationship with me?! Tell me!!!"
Bo Yezaki's eyes darted between the group of people before he suddenly asked, "Are you siblings?"
"ha?"
Suddenly interrupted, the assailant paused for a moment. He had been very arrogant, but when he realized that the person who could stop him even in the dark was the one who moved his lips, he said nothing.
The man who was nearly killed blocked the girl behind him and said coldly, "I was planning to tell you anyway, but I didn't expect you to hold a grudge... She and I are indeed siblings."
The man, who felt he was right to hurt someone, didn't dare to vent his anger on Bo Yezhai, but he dared to get angry at the person who felt he had been cheated on: "Huh? You actually dare to go along with it! Do you think I'll believe that? Why keep the sibling relationship a secret so tightly?"
"Enough!"
The girl stepped forward: "We are indeed siblings. I... I am an illegitimate child, so I've never known how to explain it..."
Perpetrator: "..."
Others: "…………"
The assailant listened blankly as the siblings opposite him explained the situation, then knelt down on the ground: "What...then I...then I..."
"Alright, I admit I sometimes act a bit recklessly. It's normal for you to be jealous. Apologize properly to me, and don't let my sister down again!"
Hearing this, Hattori Heiji finally couldn't help but retort, "So, can't we communicate more before doing things?"
"That's not the point, is it?" Bo Ye Saiki said in surprise. "You're actually planning to just let him go like this?"
The man who almost got stabbed touched his neck: "Sorry, things were too chaotic just now, I forgot to thank you... Well, I'm alright now..."
Bo Yezaki nodded: "I understand. I should let you get stabbed to death."
other side:"…………"
Bo Yezaki ignored the man and went to ask the girl, "Are you going to forgive him too?"
The girl hesitated: "After all, it was our fault for keeping it from him..."
Usakabe Saiki sighed deeply, then turned to Hattori Heiji and asked, "Let me ask you something, if Ms. Kazuha were to get very close to a boy and it was obvious that she was hiding something from you, what would your reaction be?"
At that moment, Hattori Heiji forgot to first explain that he and Toyama Kazuha were not in a romantic relationship, and instead subconsciously assumed, "Well... investigate the truth yourself, and then go ask..."
"If they don't answer your questions, would you hurt or even kill someone?"
"How is that possible!" Hattori Heiji blurted out.
Amuro Tooru smiled and said to the somewhat bewildered girl, "See? Normally, even if you're hiding something from him, the worst that would happen is that you'd get angry and break up. It wouldn't escalate to this point of hurting each other. Don't blame yourself entirely for the mistakes."
This guy, Usakabe Saiki, is really biased towards women. Even when he's just meeting a girl, he's considerate of her feelings and worries that things might go wrong if she marries a violent man...
Why are they unwilling to consider the interests of the Japanese Public Security Bureau more?
Heiji Hattori, who initially felt it was unnecessary to meddle in other people's affairs, now also felt a bit uneasy: "Yeah... I can understand being angry, but when it comes to taking a knife, it feels like the nature of the situation has changed a bit..."
"He can use a knife now because of a misunderstanding about your close relationship with your brother. After you get married, if you talk to the neighbors a little more, he'll think it's your fault. How do you think he'll react?" Bo Yezhai sighed. "He revealed his violent side before the marriage. You should have cut your losses in time!"
"asshole!"
The person who had initially felt guilty and embarrassed for misunderstanding someone suddenly became enraged.
The parties involved have already forgiven him, so what right does this outsider have to point fingers at him?!
Now that he no longer had a knife, he instinctively rushed forward, intending to punch the person.
He also felt that he had been restrained earlier because he was in the dark and hadn't expected anyone to be able to stop him, so he didn't have time to react. If it were now, he would definitely be fine.
As soon as he raised his fist, he was pinned to the ground again, this time by a waiter.
Amuro Tooru was a little speechless: "The police will be here soon. Let's resolve any issues in front of them."
Bo Yezaki added fuel to the fire: "See? Although this is the first time I've met him, I've noticed that his first reaction to solving problems is to resort to violence. If you can't beat him, I suggest you reconsider getting married."
This time, the girl is really starting to think things through.
She had previously been somewhat biased due to their long-standing relationship, habitually thinking the best of people, and she mainly felt that it was her and her brother's concealment that caused the problem...
But now it seems that people just like violence. Others wouldn't react like this in this situation, so that's a completely different story!
You should be careful about getting married!
Upon realizing the girl was genuinely hesitant, even while being subdued, the assailant became agitated: "She's my girlfriend! What happens between her is none of your business!"
Bo Yezaki didn't even look at him, and continued to say to the girl, "If he abuses you in the future, he will tell others that it is a family matter and that they should not interfere."
"Aaaaaah—Shut up!!!"
The person who caused the injury is starting to lose their composure.
Having turned what should have been a heartwarming happy reunion into a broken mirror that could never be mended, Bo Yezhai finally patted his behind, satisfied, and prepared to leave: "Alright, your business is none of my concern. I feel like I'll get beaten up if I stay, so I'll be going now."
Amuro Tooru was speechless: "The police are coming in a bit..."
"It's none of my business. No one was hurt, and the situation is so clear, there's no need for me to give a statement, right? I'm leaving it to you. I was just passing by... By the way, what's up with this guy over here?"
Hattori Heiji and Edogawa Conan were taken aback, realizing that Usaku Saiki was referring to the person sitting at the table on the other side of them.
This person had previously inexplicably chimed in on the topic of Sunday the 13th, providing a lot of information, which seemed rather mysterious.
Conan Edogawa obediently shook his head: "I don't know him."
"I didn't ask you."
Amuro Tooru was taken aback and shook his head as well: "I don't know him."
“Oh…” Bo Ye Saiki nodded, “You two seem to have a similar vibe, but since you say you don’t know each other, then never mind.”
Conan Edogawa: "???"
The mysterious person involved: "!!!"
This mysterious fellow is named Iori Muga. He is a former Japanese public security officer who resigned three years ago and is currently working as a butler for the eldest daughter of a former Japanese prime minister named Ooka Momiji.
There's no particularly important mission for me to be here; I'm mainly here to see the man the young lady likes—Hattori Heiji.
Upon discovering that Hattori Heiji seemed to be planning to confess to a girl other than the young lady today, Iori Muga decisively started talking about Friday the 13th, giving a bunch of examples of terrible events that happened on Friday the 13th in history, and advising Hattori Heiji to avoid confessing today.
It's a bit unethical, but as a former Japanese public security official, it's not a problem.
Now that he's the young lady's butler, of course he should support her decisions and work hard to help her achieve her goals. Since those two kids aren't dating yet, what's wrong with the young lady wanting to compete? It's not like he's being asked to assassinate her rival!
Of course, since I was already there, I also took the opportunity to observe my former colleague.
Although he resigned, his current work involves the home of a former Japanese prime minister, so he still comes into contact with his former superiors and occasionally helps with tasks, thus gaining knowledge about matters related to the Japanese Public Security Administration.
He was aware that this blond waiter was a member of the Japanese Public Security Bureau—they were in the same department before he resigned.
As a result, his observations of Hattori Heiji and his Japanese Public Security colleagues made little progress. Instead, a strange guy suddenly appeared, who was overly perceptive and seemed to have noticed the similarities between him and his former colleagues.
Those thin, green eyes seemed to pierce through his soul, seeing right through him… Right, this guy even recognized them as siblings the moment he arrived… That look in his eyes…
Who is this guy?!
Iori had no right to stop Usaku Saiki, so he could only watch helplessly as Usaku Saiki dropped a bomb in his heart and then turned and left, leaving him alone to be bewildered.
Although Hattori Heiji knew Usui Saiki, he couldn't help but have some questions: "Usui-nii... was he really that good at fighting? And how did he know they were siblings? He didn't hear anything when he arrived, did he?"
And the way he's stepping on the prisoner is way too practiced!
--------------------
In this case, the original authors forgave each other, which greatly shocked me.
With such a handling method, how can anyone dare to continue the marriage?
.
Iori Muga is a former member of the Japanese Public Security Bureau. He was in the same department as Kazami and was assigned to Furuya Rei's unit. It seems he knows Furuya Rei, but it's unclear whether Furuya Rei knows him.
He also knows Kuroda Hyoue; in chapter 1090 of the manga, they even talked about Furuya Rei.
Original quote from the comic—
Kuroda: I heard you met with him.
Iori: Yeah, that blond guy... The young lady and I went to that shop called Poirot because of something. It seems like he's still holding onto things from the past, which isn't necessarily a bad thing...
Then a car drove by, and inside sat an elderly man wearing a ventilator.
Driver: Police car... Has something happened?
Old man: Never mind, the police are just a bunch of fools anyway.
↑Currently, it's speculated that this old man is the organization's boss... but that's not necessarily true.
