Chapter 58 Chapter 58 I think if there is no defendant, we can do it on the spot...
Frightened by Kamohashi Ron's voice, the waiter finally subconsciously pointed the gun in his hand at the other party, and after seeing that it was Kamohashi Ron, he pointed it back at Milo.
Milo: "..."
"Put down the gun," Kamonohashi said. "Don't point it at anyone. Are you going to keep making mistakes?"
"Sorry, not anymore."
"Suicide is also a mistake. Don't think I'll turn a blind eye to such an act of disregarding life!" Kamonohashi Ron shouted, "Besides, this is a matter between Milo and me. There's no room for outsiders to interfere."
"Kamonohashi, this guy can't be considered an outsider at all," Milo continued, still clutching his injured left arm. "The so-called undercover agent is actually your fabrication, right? This guy is your trump card...?"
"Should I say your reasoning skills are weak, or perhaps you've committed so many crimes that your brain has degenerated due to the curses of the victims? Fabricating such facts isn't my style," Kamonohashi said. "After all, you should all know that intelligence from the M family has been leaking to other places."
Milo said nothing.
"Of course I know who the undercover agent is, but I have no reason to tell this to my enemies. That's my answer," Kamonohashi said. "I've also told you the terms of exchange, right?"
"The information that caused your troublesome illness..." Milo looked at Kamohashi Ron coldly. "Unless I die, I will never give you this information, Kamohashi Ron."
"Why?"
"Isn't it a pretty good revenge to make the descendants of a corrupt detective family suffer from not being able to solve cases all the time?" Milo said. "In short, Kamonohashi Ron, I will never forgive you."
"What nonsense are you talking about? I should be the one saying this," Kamohashi Ron said. "Why don't you let me carry out my detective work? Is it because I'm a descendant of Sherlock Holmes? Can't we let go of our ancestors' hatred?"
"Haha...you're overthinking it. That's not the reason." Milo was still covering his arm. "That's because you have Moriarty blood in your veins. You were born to come back to our side!"

Kamo no Bridge Theory: "..."
The waiter: “…”
What nonsense is Milo talking about, covering his arm!
"You think I'm talking nonsense, right? I admit, I was completely surprised to see him suddenly. After all, no matter how badly someone jumps into the sea, I never considered the possibility of survival," Milo said. "But what I said was correct, Kamonohashi Ron. You'll return to this side sooner or later. It's just a matter of time. I just wanted to speed up the process a little bit."
Kamonohashi Ron: "I'm so sorry, Milo. After I was taught all the criminal methods when I was six years old, I promised that 'teacher' that I would go my own way, and that path didn't include committing crimes... Of course I'm willing to go back to the M family, provided it's not a criminal organization."
"I knew you'd say that," Milo said. "Well, Winter! Show that scene to Kamo no Hashiro now. I'm sure he'll make a decision quickly."
Winter: "...Sorry."
Milo: “?”
Kamonohashi: "No one has already thought of attacking my partner because they have a high probability of losing, right? You are really regressing, Milo. Five years ago, the Blood Internship Case was aimed at me, and five years later you choose to attack someone close to me? Where is your self-confidence as the leader of the M family that you are so proud of?"
"Because I lost the battle when I made that detective lose consciousness," Winter said. "I have no reason to bring him back. I still have my own opinions, Milo."
Milo: "...Huh, I see. I forgot about that. But logically, there should be a backup plan. Why hasn't that backup plan been implemented yet?"
"The reason you didn't implement your backup plan is simple. Allowing Blue's undercover agent to board this cruise ship was a mistake, Milo," Kamonohashi said. "They could easily be contained by Blue's professors."
"Troublesome Blue and the World Detective League," Milo continued. "But, never mind. It's alright. Having you kill someone you cherish with your own hands would be a good show, but since the prerequisites aren't met, it doesn't matter. Just press this thing..."
"What is that?"
"Gas device." Winter said, "Just press this. If it is not blocked immediately, everyone on the cruise ship who does not have a gas mask will..." Winter knew that there was no need to explain the rest. Kamohashi Ron's face had changed.
"You're still so concerned about other people's lives, Kamonohashi Ron," Milo said. "Ever since the Blood Internship Case, you seem to value other people's lives more than your own. What a serious weakness."
"You're wrong, Milo." Kamohashi Ron sighed and said, "That's not a weakness. In other words, it's precisely because you don't understand that you lose."
Milo looked at Kamohashi Ron with a little confusion.
"Let's check... or if you want to press it down, I'm fine with that," Kamohashi Ron said, "and see what kind of gas it is."

The Orihime show on the cruise ship was still going on, with nearly half the crowd gathered at the venue. Isshiki Totomaru was overseeing the situation, while Prosecutor Kazama complained, "What's wrong with Kamonohashi? I'm not his subordinate. He told me that the surprise performance might cause a commotion and asked me to calm the audience down. Is he the captain of this cruise ship? He's meddling in everything."
Robin: "There are lawyers, prosecutors, and criminal police. I think we can open the trial right now if we only need a defendant."
"...Who is the judge, Captain?"
Isshiki Totomaru: "..."
The two of them started arguing as if no one was around, but in reality, Isshiki Totsumaru was also a little curious.
After all, it was said that there might be a so-called surprise performance in a while, although he didn't say it explicitly, and even said: "If you think about it carefully, it's better not to have such a performance." But he still asked Isshiki Todumaru to come here.
"Well... since Blue and the World Detective League are filled with idiots and eccentric individuals, the job of calming the public ultimately requires professionals," said Kamonohashi. "The surprise performance later on should make things a bit colder... Perhaps we can remind the audience to dress warmly."
"Well, that's true, but why did you put your coat on me?" Isshiki Totomaru complained, then looked at Kamonohashi Ron with a little worry, "It's very dangerous, right? Do you want to go there alone? I can't be at ease."
"There's nothing we can do, Toto. After all, in a sense, this is also a family matter," Kamohashi Ron said. "The best outcome would be that Milo actually turns himself in after I persuade him to."
"What's the worst that could happen?"
"At a time like this, we can't allow the worst outcome." Kamohashi Ron said this at the time. Now, I don't know what happened to Ron, and I'm still worried. If there is no problem here, I'll go find Ron.
Then, at this moment, when Origen was singing the lyrics about "clouds", a large number of clouds suddenly appeared on the stage, no, to be more precise, it was dry ice.
"That's the surprise performance, huh? You should wear more clothes then," Robin said, seemingly holding some deadly poison in his hand. "Some strange evidence, Officer Isshiki, I'll give it to you."
He had just switched the medicine in the waiter's hand, and he switched it to a non-lethal medicine.
“Huh?!”
228
"That poisonous gas turned into dry ice..." Milo was also shocked after pressing it. "Who did this?"
Winter: "If it wasn't done by one of our own, then the only one left is the undercover agent that Kamonohashi Ron mentioned who infiltrated our M family. After all, with our level, we shouldn't be able to not know that something like this has been swapped."
"That's not necessarily true," Kamohashi Ron said. "You guys installed some pretty strong electronic jammers on this cruise ship to cut off my connection with my dad and the other viewers. But that was completely self-defeating. With that kind of electronic jammer, it was actually much easier to hack into some of the surveillance footage. Looking back, I wonder if the sudden black screen during that time was caused by some kind of electronic jammer or something."
Milo: "No, wasn't the surveillance screen black during that period because someone poisoned it?"
"Really? Then what was the motive for the poisoner?" Kamohashi Ron asked him, "It looks like a random killing, but think about it, is it really a random killing? It seems that everyone's attention has shifted to that side, which is a little strange. I'm a detective, and there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with shifting my attention there. Why do you care about that, Milo?"
Milo: "I see, so this was done by someone who knew my original plan, but you're going to claim that this has nothing to do with you, Kamo no Hashi!"
"That's why I've already said that cherishing other people's lives isn't a weakness." Kamohashi Ron said, "At least I immediately ruled out the possibility that you weren't the one who did that. There was a third party on the cruise ship."
"Are you telling me all this so you can temporarily collaborate to find that third party? Kamonohashi Ron?" Milo's arm was still bleeding, but this time he spoke calmly, "I won't agree to cooperate."
"Because Kamohashi Ron is the child of the man who makes his mother suffer, that's the reason." Kamohashi Ron suddenly gave a reason that even Milo didn't expect.
"...You, why do you know this!" Milo looked quite defenseless.
"I'm sorry, Milo. I wish I had figured this out earlier." Kamohashi Ron suddenly said, "Why do you think I became an emotional anchor?"
