He then went over and pulled up Nagakura Shinpachi.
But his hand was immediately flung away.
"Why...why are you stopping me! I'm going to kill him! I'm going to kill this bastard!"
As if snapping out of his daze, Nagakura Shinpachi yelled at Toyama Yoruichi.
Well... that's fine, at least it lets me vent my frustrations.
Yoichi Toyama thought about it and didn't stop him anymore, letting him wave his arms at the air.
Even at this point, he didn't even go over and punch Yamanami Keisuke.
This person, and his lover, Kanna Yuzuki, are young people who have been too well-disciplined by society.
They shouldn't have had such a tragic ending.
"W-What are you doing?" Startled, Yamanami Keisuke sidled up to Kindaichi, pulled some of his raincoat over his head, and muttered resentfully.
"You want to kill someone for no reason? I don't even know you!"
"Then you know Kanna, right!" Nagakura Shinpachi roared angrily. "Yuzuki Kanna! Don't you feel any guilt towards her?"
Upon hearing this name, Yamanami Keisuke finally shuddered in fright.
But she immediately retorted stubbornly, "So what? She committed suicide, it has nothing to do with me..."
Before he could finish speaking, Kindaichi snatched the raincoat from his head.
"Don't you have any conscience at all? Wasn't it you who drove Ms. Kanna, Mr. Nagakura's girlfriend, to her death?"
Hajime-chan spoke out righteously from her own standpoint.
"You told me to kill him! I'm going to kill him!" Nagakura seemed to realize something, clenched his fist and rushed forward, but bumped into Yoruichi Toyama's arm.
"Don't stop me! Let me kill him! Then I'll turn myself in!" He struggled hysterically in Toyama Yoruichi's grasp, his voice hoarse and his eyes bloodshot.
"I won't cause you any trouble!"
Yoruichi Toyama sighed and simply stood in front of him to block his view.
"Don't kill anyone, you absolutely mustn't kill anyone..." In a low, gentle voice, Yoruichi Toyama kept repeating, "If you kill someone, you'll be ruined..."
Even if you kill him, Kanna won't come back...
"Kanna wouldn't want to see you like this..."
"If you're still upset, hit me... Come on, punch me, hit me hard... Come on..."
Rain and tears mingled on Nagakura Shinpachi's face. He threw a punch with his eyes closed, which landed softly on Toyama Yoruichi's soaked shoulder.
"Good, a little harder, come on, another punch... For Kanna, to avenge her, come on..."
This time it wasn't just one punch.
Shinpachi Nagakura seemed to have used all his strength, but when he pounded Yoruichi Toyama, it was still no more powerful than raindrops.
This person is just...too docile...
Even with the last shred of reason remaining, he was unwilling to harm unrelated people.
Exhausted, he leaned on Yoruichi Toyama's shoulder like a child and cried out.
Kindaichi and Miyuki watched this scene silently, and Miyuki's eyes seemed to begin to moisten.
“Hey, Toyama!” Akechi’s voice came through the earpiece somewhat inappropriately.
Where...are you now?
The question seemed a little hesitant, and Yoruichi Toyama assumed that he was worried about Shinpachi Nagakura.
“I’ll send you my phone’s location outside the Inokashira Line’s terminus in Shibuya.”
As Yoruichi Toyama helped the slightly calmer Shinpachi Nagakura to his feet, he answered.
“Mr. Nagakura, Mr. Yamanami, and Kindaichi and Miyuki are all here. We are all safe.”
"We'll talk about the rest when we get back."
Mingzhi responded with a "hmm" over there.
He would usually make more sarcastic remarks, but this time he simply replied, "Don't move, I'll have a police car come and pick you up."
Yoruichi Toyama agreed, and the group went to take shelter from the rain under the eaves of a building on the side of the street.
Feeling that he had escaped a life-threatening situation, Yamanami Keisuke gradually regained his energy.
"Hey, you!" he said to the now completely silent Nagakura Shinpachi, "This kidnapping, you planned it, didn't you? Just to murder me?"
"And you, who claim to be the family of the kidnapped little girl, aren't you all in cahoots?"
"You wait, I'll take you to court!"
With a "bang".
Yamanami Keisuke felt dizzy and found himself sitting on the ground, half of his face numb with pain.
Yoruichi Toyama calmly withdrew his hand, giving Kindaichi a glare.
"What are you looking at? My hand slipped."
Kindaichi:? ? ?
Kindaichi: Big brother, I didn't say anything!
Then he and Miyuki exchanged a glance and decided that they really wouldn't say anything.
Nagakura Shinpachi's blank eyes twitched, as if a glimmer of light had appeared.
Yoruichi Toyama quickly blocked him.
"Don't hit him. With your strength, you won't hurt him. He'll just sue you."
"and you……"
Yoruichi Toyama chuckled.
"Me? I'm a family member of the little girl you kidnapped, so I'm a victim, right?"
"Don't say I didn't do anything. Even if I did something excessive, it was just a moment of emotional outburst, and everyone can understand."
Yamanami Keisuke, who had originally planned to have a showdown, looked around but found he couldn't get any allies, so he had no choice but to accept his fate and get up on his own.
Yoruichi Toyama's smile gradually faded.
“Mr. Nagakura,” he said earnestly, looking at Nagakura Shinpachi, “the police car will be here soon, go and turn yourself in.”
“Kindaichi and I saw what happened just now very clearly. You did not harm Mr. Yamanami.”
