Chapter 193 Before He Disappeared (Additional 2 in 1)
Miyagawa Ryo was keeping an eye on the developments on all sides while continuing to work at his own pace without rushing or slowing down.
He is currently tasked with investigating Kogoro Mori, so he appears more and more directly in front of Conan Edogawa.
However, his contact with Conan Edogawa has become much less since the last hospital incident. Now, even if they meet, Conan Edogawa will pretend to be an ordinary child and reduce their interactions with him.
They never communicated privately again.
Instead, Haibara Ai and Miyagawa Ryo have more interactions.
Not only does she care about his daily diet, she also actively reports Edogawa Conan's whereabouts to him.
Miyakawa Ling asked: "Ai-chan, are you not afraid of me now?"
Huiyuan Ai's face was calm and she shook her head: "I am still useful to you. You won't kill me. Why should I be afraid of you?"
Miyakawa Ling smiled and said, "You are right."
The girl lowered her head and handed over a new recipe: "Follow this for the next half month."
He took it. “Thank you.”
Huiyuan Ai smiled slightly: "My sister is in your hands, and my life is also in your hands, so I will be very obedient."
Honestly, her words didn't match her expression at all and looked a bit creepy.
However, after experiencing the double weird attitudes of Furuya Rei and Akai Shuichi, Miyagawa Rei has now accepted it well.
And, in a way, what Haibara Ai said was right.
Now, it’s just that those who should be afraid accept it with a calm attitude.
Miyakawa Ling smiled and said, "I'm glad you understand."
"It's going to be winter soon, you should put on more clothes." Huiyuan Ai stood up and reminded: "If you catch a cold, it will be very troublesome with your physical condition."
"I'll keep an eye on that."
The next day, when the two met again, Miyagawa Ling added a gray sweater. Huihara Ai saw it and was very happy. Then she couldn't help but say a few more words:
"Drink less cold water."
"Make sure to take a rest."
Miyagawa Rei nodded in agreement. Haibara Ai didn't know if he could do it, but she was still very satisfied.
On this day, Miyagawa Ling and a few others went to the hot spring and encountered another murder case.
Conan Edogawa usually runs in the front to solve the case, but today, he stood behind Mouri Ran, looking very irritable and uneasy. He was not concentrating at all when solving the case and even missed any clues.
Miyagawa Ryo was a little surprised, but when Mori Kogoro asked for his opinion, he still threw out the key point of the case.
Maori Kogoro solved the case soon after, and the police arrested the murderer. However, because it was snowing heavily outside, the few people did not change hotels and still stayed in this hot spring hotel.
In the middle of the night, Miyagawa Ling opened the door, came to the door at the end of the corridor and knocked.
"Who?!"
The people inside were not asleep yet, and when they heard the sound, they asked impatiently.
"I'm Yu Renling, you met me just now."
"Yu Renling?" The man's voice became surprised and he opened the door: "You are the one who was shown on TV some time ago..."
"It's me, can I come in?"
"What do you want from me?"
Miyakawa Ling gave a kind smile: "I want to remind you of something."
"ha?"
Although he didn't know why, Miyagawa Ryo was still let in.
A few minutes later, Miyakawa Ling dropped the dagger and walked out of the room.
This person is one of his mission targets.
But as soon as Miyagawa Ryo walked out of the room, he heard the sound of someone falling. He lowered his head and saw the little detective who fell to the ground because of fright, and Haibara Ai who was unusually quiet beside him.
Obviously, the two were just about to eavesdrop, or had already heard something.
The door was not closed yet, and the smell of blood wafted into the corridor.
Miyagawa Ling looked at the two of them indifferently and closed the door.
“Crack.”
The sound of the door closing startled the voice-activated light in the corridor, and instantly, the expressions of the three people were illuminated.
Miyakawa Ling asked: "Why are you here, awake in the middle of the night?"
…
Under the pale light, the young man's golden eyes also seemed cold.
He did not help them up, nor did he show his usual smile. His condescending attitude, indifferent tone, and the way he casually closed the door...everything spoke of indifference.
Conan Edogawa placed his hands on the cold ground, looking at the young man's expression, and couldn't help but think of yesterday...
·
Conan Edogawa had just experienced an incident and was almost exposed to the organization's sight, thanks to Rei Furuya who helped him hide the truth.
Afterwards, Furuya Rei talked to him, and Conan Edogawa learned about Furuya Rei's identity as a public security officer.
——Although he had already guessed it.
But what surprised Conan Edogawa even more than this was that Miyagawa Rei was actually a police academy student in the same class as Furuya Rei!!
They are classmates!
"What about Mr. Akai?" Edogawa Conan asked: "He has a good relationship with Hane...Mr. Miyagawa. How did they know each other?"
Friendship between the police and the FBI?
Fūya Rei was suspiciously silent for a moment, then he said reluctantly, "They knew each other when they were kids."
"Ah?" Edogawa Conan was stunned, and Haibara Ai beside him said thoughtfully: "No wonder..."
With such a close relationship, no wonder her sister said that to her.
"What's the wonder?" asked Furuya Rei.
Haibara Ai glanced at Furuya Rei indifferently. She already knew about the interactions between Furuya Rei and her mother and sister.
Although she had not experienced that long ago, she still had some feelings for people who had had some contact with her deceased parents and had never given up looking for her family.
Huihara Ai said: "My sister also noticed that their relationship was not ordinary."
Sister...
Fūya Rei's eyes dimmed a little: "Sorry."
By the time he knew it, Miyano Akemi had already been murdered by Miyagawa.
"What are you sorry for?" Huihara Ai said, "My sister is not dead."
"What?!"
This time, not only Furuya Rei, but also Edogawa Conan was shocked.
Not dead?
"Didn't you say before..."
"I thought my sister was dead, but she wasn't," the girl said. "Miyagawa Ryo saved her. She just faked her death."
"Are you sure?" Furiya Rei couldn't believe it, his heart pounding, excitement and excitement, like sparkling water in summer, constantly bubbling out.
This is not only because Akemi Miyano is alive, but also because of what she represents.
"Well, I had a video call with my sister."
Conan Edogawa said happily: "Great! Huibara!"
Huihara smiled.
"Besides, does this mean that Mr. Miyagawa's condition is not that serious? Sometimes he can make some decisions on his own!"
After Haibara Ai came back, she told Conan Edogawa about Miyagawa Ryo's situation.
"Oh, right! And Mr. Akai's fake death! He helped cover it up!"
Conan Edogawa became more and more excited as he spoke, but soon the corpse he saw that night flashed through his mind and his smile froze.
Ai Huihara said: "That's true in theory, but mental illnesses cannot be diagnosed without a comprehensive and detailed examination."
After calming down a bit, Furuya Ling poured cold water on the two people: "No, it has been a long time since Mingmei faked her death. Ling's current situation is very bad. He may lose control of his body at any time, and the time is getting longer and longer. When it comes to murder, it will continue until the end..."
"Can't it be cured?" Conan Edogawa asked anxiously.
Furuya Ling shook his head: "Ling has denied having a second personality and has never asked me for help. I guess there is some kind of restriction that affects his thinking and makes him unable to speak... Ling will not cooperate with us."
Huiyuan Ai pondered for a while, and suddenly said boldly: "How about letting him cooperate passively?"
Conan Edogawa was surprised: "You mean..."
"Knock him out."
Rei Furuya: "It's not feasible. First, we don't know if Magno will be conscious after Ling faints. Second, mental treatment is a long process and it's impossible to be effective in one or two times. And, finally..."
The two little ones listened attentively to what Fūya Rei said.
"I guess Ling deliberately keeps himself in this state."
"deliberately?"
"How could that be?!"
"It's not that he condoned Magno's behavior... but that Ling, with no other options, took a more radical approach, allowing himself to be swallowed deeper by Magno, thereby confusing the organization and gaining higher trust."
Edogawa Conan's pupils shrank and his heartbeat quickened.
When you can't control yourself...are you more proactive in erasing yourself?
This, then, is a staggering gamble.
He could either completely lose his identity as "Miyagawa Ryo" and give his body to Magno, or help the police get rid of the organization before he disappears completely.
How can a normal person dare to make such a crazy decision?
——But after Furuya Rei said it, Edogawa Conan felt it was very likely.
If it was that guy...that's what he would do.
Actively push yourself into a deeper desperate situation in exchange for a glimmer of hope for survival.
Did he do the right thing?
He watched with his own eyes as he killed innocent people one after another, his hands were stained with more and more blood, he could neither live nor die, he was cursed, resented, suffered, was confused, blamed, and felt indifferent... He was surrounded by a huge torrent of emotions and was pushed to the edge of a cliff.
I couldn't even ask for help, and even my friends were turning against me.
There are only enemies in front of you and the abyss behind you.
In such despair, he took another step back and fell off the cliff on his own initiative!
Just thinking about it makes me feel like I'm suffocating with pain!
"Then..." Edogawa Conan followed his emotions and asked in despair: "What can I do to help him?"
What he asked was also the question that Furuya Rei had been thinking about over and over again.
If possible, Rei Furuya also hopes that someone can give him an answer.
But no.
No one could give him a best answer.
So he could only answer himself: "I wanted to enter the research institute and get the drug that Ling was injected with. Recently, I got close to a member of the organization and made some progress, but unfortunately, I didn't find the relevant drug. The confidentiality level of that kind of thing is too high."
"To get it, either you have to become a core member of the organization like Ling, or there is only one way left."
After a brief moment of reluctance, Edogawa Conan understood.
Haibara Ai also understood.
—Shovel away this huge monster called the organization.
Faster, faster.
Before that gentle young man disappears.
"But..." Huibara Ai muttered to herself.
But she knew very well how organizations existed.
Even though there is a lot of help now, the police, the FBI, and various countries are paying attention to it, but it is impossible to eradicate it in a short period of time.
Is it really too late?
·
"What are you doing here in the middle of the night?"
I don't know if it was Miyakawa Ryo or Magno's people who asked this question.
But...it was Miyagawa Ryo who didn't take direct action.
Conan Edogawa lowered his head: "Go to the bathroom."
"I want to go out and see the snow." Huibara Ai found an even more outrageous reason.
After hearing this, Conan Edogawa said, "Yes, she is afraid to go alone, so I will go with her."
"It's not safe for two little kids." Miyakawa Ling invited: "I'll go with you."
Edogawa Conan yawned slightly: "I'm sleepy."
"Where's Ai?"
Huiyuan gritted her teeth and said, "I... will go with you."
"Then I'll go too!"
"Let's go." Miyakawa Ling turned around and walked towards the stairs. After taking a few steps, he suddenly turned back and said, "You guys——"
The voice-activated light was turned off at this moment.
In the deep darkness, only his cold voice could be heard: "Did you see anything?"
After a moment of silence, the two little ones answered:
"It's snowing really hard tonight."
"I saw it too. I really want to go out and play!"
Miyakawa Ling walked down the stairs: "Come on then."
The three of them walked out of the hotel. The snow outside was even heavier than at dinner, and in an instant it formed a thin layer on the hair of the three of them.
The hot spring town was a bit remote, with no lights anywhere. The only bright spot was the warm light from the hotel lobby behind him.
Edogawa Conan looked up. The sky was filled with snowflakes, exuding the coolness of winter. Snowflakes were falling all over the ground, and the night was chilly and lonely.
Haibara Ai stretched out her hand, and crystal clear snowflakes fell on her hand, melted, and disappeared, leaving only a fleeting cool touch.
None of the three spoke, just quietly watching the snow scene.
After a long time, Miyagawa Ling said, "We've seen the snow, let's go back."
Conan Edogawa asked: "Brother Hane, are you cold?"
“It’s not cold.”
Conan Edogawa choked up a little and said, "I'm not cold either, let's watch for a while longer."
Huiyuan Ai squatted down and scooped up a handful of pure white snow: "This is the first snow of this year."
She closed her palms and squeezed the soft snow into a ball.
Not long after, a white kitten was born from her hands.
Because it’s my first time making it, it’s not very delicate, but it’s very cute.
Miyagawa Ryo recognized that this was the doll in his car when they first met. He later gave it to Haibara Ai, but Haibara Ai obviously had no chance to take it with her when she escaped from the organization.
Huiyuan Ai held up the kitten and looked up at Miyakawa Ling with clear eyes: "Does it look like it?"
Miyakawa Ling raised the corners of his lips: "Very similar."
Huihara Ai's face was flushed red because of the cold wind. She carefully picked up the kitten and said, "This time, I won't let it fall from the car, the table... anywhere."
“But it will melt.”
"That's its freedom. I just don't want it to be forced."
Miyakawa Ling nodded gently: "It will be very happy."
"And you?"
“I’d be happy too.”
"You can also get your own freedom." Huiyuan Ai lowered her eyes: "Definitely."
Conan Edogawa's eyes turned red and he turned his head away, not wanting the two to see him.
Freedom...
This is too cruel for Hane Ling who can't even control his own physical condition.
"..." Miyakawa Ling laughed, "Actually, I already got it."
He didn't intend to let the two kids understand what he meant, so he pointed at the hotel and said, "Let's go back."
"Wait a moment..."
"Wait a little longer."
Haibara Ai and Edogawa Conan pleaded almost in unison.
After returning, it seems that they have to return to their own frustrations.
But now, on this night, in this snow, they are free.
No need to think about the sadness and the unknown, just stand here quietly, stand together.
——Maybe one day, even standing together will be a luxury.
If things go in a bad direction, that day won't even be far away.
A gust of even colder wind blew by, and a layer of snowflakes hit his face. Miyakawa Ling: "..."
Aren't these two cold?
The snow is getting heavier! I feel like my face is freezing!
He compromised woodenly: "Okay, watch it for another five minutes."
Miyagawa Ling's cold expression made the two of them feel sour again.
The three of them stood for another five minutes, and when it was over, they returned to the hotel together.
Just before entering the hotel, Miyagawa Rei said to Haibara Ai: "In the eyes of the organization, you have already been killed by Bourbon. Stay away from Conan from now on." to avoid being dragged in again.
Huiyuan Ai was stunned for a moment, "Okay."
They went up to the second floor, and the existence of the room in the corner silently reminded them that Miyagawa Ryo had just killed someone.
As soon as you step in here, the atmosphere seems to change.
The warmth just now was gone. Miyagawa Ling ignored the two of them and went straight back to the room. The two of them stared at his back, unable to say anything.
Comfort? Under such a heavy reality, comfort seems too pale.
Encouragement? He seemed very determined, much more determined than them. The faith in his heart had never wavered, but had become even more dazzling after the baptism of hell.
Confess? What's the point? Not only will it not help him at all, it might even irritate Magno...
There was nothing they could do.
Can only watch.
After the door of Miyagawa Rei was closed, Huihara Ai, who had been in a calm mood until now, suddenly leaned against the wall and burst into tears.
Conan Edogawa was not in a much better situation either. With red eyes, he stared at the dark floor and made up his mind: he had to find a breakthrough in the organization sooner, sooner!
…
Not long after returning from the hot spring town, Miyagawa Ling received an unexpected mission: kill Xiao Ruoyilang!
Ichiro Owaka is Takuya Yasui's younger brother. He took his mother's surname and grew up in his mother's family. He is not recorded in the Yasui family genealogy, so his information cannot be found on the Internet.
Owaka Ichiro is a traffic policeman of the Metropolitan Police Department. A long time ago, he concealed his identity and asked Kudo Shinichi to investigate something. At that time, Miyagawa Ryo noticed him and asked Hagiwara Kenji to follow up and investigate.
The investigation found that Ichiro Kowaka was suspicious about the deaths of two traffic policemen from the same department. When Miyagawa Ryo was driving Miyano Akemi to a mission and they met the traffic police, Ichiro Kowaka happened to be on vacation and saw it when he drove by... He suspected that the deaths of the two traffic policemen were related to Miyagawa Ryo.
However, the higher-ups classified the matter as confidential, so Owaka Ichiro had to conduct his own investigation secretly.
However, not long after, the police found Koruoichiro and asked him to stop the investigation. Koruoichiro also signed an agreement and really stopped investigating.
When Miyagawa Rei knew this, he didn't let Hagiwara Kenji take care of him. After all, Miyagawa Rei was short of manpower at that time.
But now it seems that there is a hidden truth in this matter:
Miyagawa Ryo's appearance aroused Koruichiro's suspicion, but he was not sure whether the black-eyed Guan Ze Hexi was Miyagawa Ryo, or whether he had any relationship with Miyagawa Ryo.
He stopped investigating the traffic policeman's death, but soon he started investigating Sekizawa Kazuki...
This is also the reason why the organization wants to kill Ichiro Owaka: Not long ago, the organization accidentally discovered that Ichiro Owaka was investigating Kazuki Sekisawa.
The intelligence department cooperated with the undercover agent of the Metropolitan Police Department to investigate and found that Owaka Ichiro had once suspected the cause of death of the traffic policeman.
Miyakawa Ryo now has great prestige among the police and the public. It is impossible for the organization to associate him with Miyakawa Ryo and destroy Miyakawa Ryo.
Therefore, it is necessary to get rid of this traffic policeman who has been transferred out of Tokyo.
Miyakawa Ling didn't have any thoughts about this. He planned to follow the organization's requirements. He bought a ticket that day and prepared to leave.
At the same time, Conan Edogawa discovered that there was an extra email in his mobile phone as Kudo Shinichi.
Sender: Ichiro Owaka.
When he saw Owaka Ichiro, Conan Edogawa thought of Takuya Hosoi. Later, after investigation, he found out that Takuya Hosoi did have a younger brother.
Conan Edogawa read the email over and over again, and he trembled all over with an intuition that he was about to discover something.
Kowaka Ichiro's email said that this was a scheduled email. If Kudo Shinichi saw it, it would mean that he was in danger and could not even ask for help.
He asked Kudo Shinichi to find a way to save him and told him his address.
Conan Edogawa took action immediately. He first ran to a phone booth and called Takuya Hosoi, using the phone number he got in the hospital.
"Hello." Takuya Baojing's gentle voice came.
Conan Edogawa used a voice changer: "Brother, it's me."
"You..." As expected, Takuya Hosoi's mood changed: "After so long, you finally contacted me! Where have you been?! Why can't I contact you?"
Can’t get in touch?
It seems that Takuya Baojing doesn't know about Ichiro Kowaka either.
Conan Edogawa said: "Brother, I'm in big trouble!"
Just like the last time he spoke to Masumi Sera, he stopped at the point and tried to steal information from the other party.
Bao Jingtuo didn't notice anything unusual: "What's going on? Wait for me."
After a few seconds, the noise on the other end of the phone stopped, and it was obvious that Takuya Baojing had arrived at a quiet place.
"Are you investigating Mr. Miyagawa? I haven't had the chance to tell you that I've already talked to him!"
Edogawa Conan's breathing paused.
Mr. Miyagawa?!
Bao Jing Takuya and Xiao Ruoyilang, actually know Miyagawa Ling's real name? ?
Miyakawa Ryo is a public security officer, and although Bao Jing Takuya is a person trusted by the police, how could he know the real name of the internal undercover investigator? !
"You guys talked?" He raised his voice, shocked.
"Yes, I sent you messages and called you, but you didn't reply. What's going on?" Bao Jing Takuya said, "Don't keep investigating. Come back. Mr. Miyagawa already knows about us."
Conan Edogawa thought about it and said boldly: "I'm in trouble. I was targeted while investigating and they wanted to kill me."
"To kill you?!"
The doctor's voice became tense, and just when Edogawa Conan thought he was worried about his brother's safety, he heard him say:
"Are those people going after Mr. Miyagawa? Are they going to harm Mr. Miyagawa?!"
"…" Conan Edogawa.
Are you sure? Your own brother is going to die!
He was afraid that Bao Jing Takuya would inform Miyakawa Ling, so he quickly said: "No, I just accidentally provoked an underground force."
"That's good."
"……?"
That's good??
Bao Jing Takuya didn't realize that what he said was wrong. He calmed down again: "I hope it won't cause trouble for Mr. Miyakawa. After so many years, he finally gained the trust of the police. Ichiro, tell me your situation in detail, and I will find a way to let the police help you."
After all these years, I finally gained the trust of the police... ?
Conan Edogawa holds the phone tightly, what does this mean?
