The highly anticipated wedding of the daughter of Matsumoto, the superintendent of the First Investigative Division, ended in an absurd manner.
The groom, Toshihiko Takasugi, has been arrested on charges of attempted murder and faces indictment.
Although the Takasugi Group behind him is quite powerful, on the one hand, he is an adopted son of the Takasugi family. In reality, he is only being cultivated as a tool to keep the power of the Takasugi Group from falling into other hands. If there is any disturbance, he will be abandoned by the family immediately.
On the other hand, Sonoko Suzuki, the second daughter of the Suzuki family, who witnessed the entire farce of the groom murdering the bride, was no pushover either.
Thanks to her information dissemination and instigation, various capital groups did not take advantage of the situation to kick the Takasugi Group while it was down, but instead waited and saw how things would develop. They were all like saints.
No one sympathizes with a spoiled brat blinded by hatred who actually murdered an innocent person.
Aside from the person involved, Ms. Sayuri Matsumoto.
According to later police questioning, she had actually known Takasugi's identity and the grudges between her family and him for a long time.
However, instead of talking to his father, who is a policeman, he was obsessed with using his own life to resolve this one-sided hatred.
"This is the real A-Zhu," thought Yoruichi Toyama.
But those are Matsumoto's internal affairs, and it's none of my business as an outsider.
It was a wise plan; bringing Yoruichi Toyama to the wedding to get acquainted with the police from the First Investigation Division was a worthwhile endeavor.
The two people and one cat from the Black Cat Detective Agency not only came into the sight of more front-line police officers, but also attracted much attention.
However, this caused a minor but significant problem for Yoruichi and her group.
After much effort, he and Akemi Miyano finally found an opportunity to call Conan, who had been following Ran, to a secluded place to talk.
"You are... Ms. Masami Hirota?"
After scrutinizing Miyano Akemi's short hair for a full ten minutes, Conan finally asked, somewhat uncertainly.
This also made Yoruichi Toyama realize once again the unparalleled power of makeup in this world.
That makes sense. If Conan's glasses escape and hat escape are both plausible, there's no reason why Miyano Akemi, who has completely changed her appearance, would easily expose her identity.
Conan, having received tacit approval, suddenly became a little nervous.
He must have realized how his identity was exposed.
"You...you're not dead...but what happened to Mr. Amuro..."
"The Mr. Amuro you mentioned is indeed one of us."
To calm the panicked detective, Akemi Miyano answered with a smile.
"But I didn't tell him your identity..."
Just as Conan breathed a sigh of relief and began to have doubts again, Yoruichi Toyama also laughed.
"It's me."
...
After exchanging information, Conan finally figured it out.
The "Miss Hirota Masami" he met at the dock was actually Yoruichi Toyama in disguise, so it was this seemingly irresponsible detective who knew his true identity.
Meanwhile, Yoruichi Toyama also learned about Conan and Tooru Amuro's subsequent conversation at the video game company.
After taking all the witnesses back in the name of the Public Security Bureau, Kazami used the excuse that the Mori detective's assistant might be a child prodigy with exceptional intelligence to conduct a series of tests and examinations on him.
It's just a matter of sending it to the lab for slicing and analysis.
Fortunately, they were eventually delivered intact, and Kogoro and his daughter finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"They said that my body went through a particularly intense metabolic process, and then all the cells and organs in my body became juvenile, but the age of my brain did not change and can still be determined to be 17 years old."
Conan summarized that "quasi-slice study" in this way.
"Of course, I told Uncle Kogoro that I have exceptional intellectual development and am a rare prodigy. I should contact my parents as soon as possible and skip a grade to attend a higher school."
That being said, Yoruichi Toyama felt that, firstly, Kogoro might not be able to contact Yusaku Kudo and his wife, the real parents, through Professor Agasa, and secondly, neither Conan nor the Public Security Bureau was seriously engaged in any academic research.
It's just that creating a "prodigy" persona makes it easier for Conan to continue participating in police cases later on.
"Also, Mr. Amuro, I saw him at the Metropolitan Police Department's Public Security Bureau, so he..."
Conan looked Yoruichi Toyama up and down, and finally sighed.
"You should have known this already, right?"
"I was the only one kept in the dark; you guys even pretended to threaten me back then..."
There was a hint of complaint in his tone, but not much.
It seems the high school detective has been thinking deeply about this lately.
Yoruichi Toyama chuckled and ruffled the big head.
The only part of his body that hasn't regressed to childhood is his brain.
No wonder Conan's head is bigger than most people's!
"Alright, Detective, now you know, right?"
"Trying to fight the distillery alone is too weak, and you might even implicate those around you."
Let's form an alliance!
"Let's work together to bring down those wicked villains!"
Seeing Yoruichi Toyama's outstretched hand, Conan nodded vigorously and reached out to shake it.
Immediately afterwards, Akemi Miyano also reached out and covered it.
"Meow meow meow, meow meow! Meow meow meow meow!..."
Hey, hey, me too!
Taro, who had been perched on Yoruichi's shoulder, suddenly became a bit wild and stretched out a claw.
But because its arms were too short, it lost its balance and pounced on the three people's overlapping hands.
The three of them simultaneously lowered their hands, and like athletes about to enter the arena, shouted "Go for it!" in unison.
