Police Confession 11
Ishii Kazuki, as the "light of the Metropolitan Police Department" who is being promoted by the Metropolitan Police Department, and the aftermath of the recent sensation Case No. 210, anyone who often watches the news is familiar with him, especially his vague tendency to "do good and go wrong". Some people think that he will rise step by step to become a pillar of the country, while others think that he will go astray, and some think that sooner or later he will get tired of his job as a civil servant and challenge the new world...
But no one thought that he would die tragically at the age of 29 in such an absurd way that seemed like a stage play.
Whether a stranger or an acquaintance.
Edogawa Conan stood up suddenly. He couldn't believe his ears. It was like a bolt from the blue, or like someone poured a bucket of cold water on him. His whole body was numb. "Gin..." He stared blankly at the TV screen. The last video clearly captured the culprit who caused him to become like this, not to mention Haibara Ai who was staring at him with wide eyes. "Ikki-brother?! Is he okay——"
The second half of the young detective's words got stuck in his throat. He stood up quickly, the chair legs made a harsh sound on the floor, his knees hit the table, and his skin suddenly turned red. But Edogawa Conan had no time to care about these little things. He just wanted to go to the door, "Edogawa-kun!" But his companion made a sharp voice, and the brown-haired girl grabbed the corner of his clothes at the last moment, "Where are you going?!"
"Go to Brother Ikki!" Edogawa Conan shouted back with red eyes, "I want to see... to see if he is...!"
"Shinichi..." Professor Agasa, who had been standing next to him, looked at the boy he had watched grow up with a complicated look, "Cold..."
The old man's words of comfort were interrupted by the brown-haired girl, "It's useless. Do you know where to go? The Metropolitan Police Department will definitely not let a child get close to the body of a police officer who is currently at the center of controversy. What's more, according to the current situation, they are probably in chaos internally," Haibara Ai stated the facts coldly. With a slight hesitation, she continued to tell the sad truth, "Plus, it's not a synthetic video," the reporter who regained control and the video that can remain intact on the Internet no matter how many times it has been reported proved this. There are also those evidence documents. Even if Haibara Ai just glanced at them, she can be sure that this is definitely not a fake. If Ishii Kazuki was still alive, he could be poured with cement and thrown into Tokyo Bay hundreds of times. "And the recording time was last night."
It's too late.
"No! There is a possibility of fraud!" Edogawa Conan gritted his teeth. He had never refused to admit the truth so much. "For example, using props at the moment when the camera moves away..."
"That's the real Gin," his pale sophistry disappeared in Huiyuan Ai's shaking head. The girl rarely showed her tenderness frankly, "Do you think he would not confirm the target's death?"
The moment Haibara Ai let go, Edogawa Conan slumped dejectedly in his chair. Dr. Agasa looked at the two of them cautiously. The unfinished breakfast was still steaming, but at this moment, no one cared anymore.
"...I just don't understand," Edogawa Conan closed his eyes, as if muttering to himself, "Brother Ikki, when did he discover the organization?" To be honest, rather than being sad, he was still in a trance, as if all this was a dream, and he hadn't woken up yet. "These evidences...it's impossible that he collected them overnight...He even directly named Karasuma Ren..."
"I don't know," Huihara Ai looked at the dejected detective worriedly, "but that police officer is very good. He may know the organization earlier than you think..."
"Does he know that I'm Kudo Shinichi?!" Edogawa Conan slammed his fist on the table, the knife and fork on the plate made a few noises, and the bruises on his hands and legs hurt slightly. He glared at the two people present, as if torturing himself, "Does he know that I'm under the threat of the organization just like him?! I don't believe that Ikki didn't notice that something was wrong with me, and he deliberately came to scare me..." The boy's tone began to become bitter, "Besides, he's already so deep... I'm still discussing with Mr. Akai about letting him join, but Ikki has quietly collected so much evidence in secret, it must not be something that can be done by one person..."
"Why didn't you tell me... I could obviously help..."
In this silent atmosphere, the only one who can walk freely is probably the black cat Watson. This clever cat secretly ate the eggs in Edogawa Conan's breakfast and then squatted on the table to wash its face. At this moment, looking at the people who lowered their heads, it shook its ears, jumped off the table, and came back with an envelope in its mouth. The cat stood up, put its two front paws on Haibara Ai's knees, and kept patting the girl in the hope of attracting her attention.
"... Watson, I'm sorry." Huihara Ai was in no mood to pet the cat now. She was about to wave her hand to send the cat away, but her eyes widened when she saw the words on the envelope. "Edogawa-kun," the girl took the envelope out of the cat's mouth and pointed to the words on it to the little detective who looked up. "Officer Ishii, it seems like I have something to say to you."
The black cat squatted beside the chair leg and yawned.
