The sky gradually darkened, and the ruined Wulan Village exuded a sense of mystery and gloom.
There was no light in the lounge on the first floor except for the moonlight coming in from the window. In front of him, he could clearly see a black figure standing in front of a wall covered with photo frames.
The shadow's gaze fell on the smiling girl with medium-length hair in the photo, and he murmured:
"There's only one person left. I just need to send that remaining person to the bloody altar—and my revenge will be complete."
Taking advantage of the night, the black shadow tiptoed up the spiral staircase only in the lounge to the second floor. The black shadow, who was very familiar with the structure here, easily bypassed all obstacles. Such behavior had been rehearsed countless times at night in order to complete revenge.
The shadowy figure quickly reached the corner room and, instead of knocking directly as before, pulled out a spare key he had prepared and unlocked the door. The reason for his bold entry was simply because he knew his target was already fast asleep.
Two sleeping pills were placed in the glass of hot milk during dinner time, enough for him to spend his last moments in peace.
The black shadow took out a syringe that he had prepared in advance, moved towards the target on the bed, and when he was about to stab the neck in the dark, he didn't know that the person on the bed suddenly moved and controlled his wrist with a strong hand.
What's going on? Why isn't he asleep? Is the sleeping pills not enough? This is impossible!
Bang!
The light switch was pressed, and the eyes that had adapted to the darkness were so blinded by the strong light that they had to squint.
The black shadow gradually emerged, and the person standing at the head of the bed was Aoko Mou holding the injection!
Ran Mouri turned on the lights as instructed and covered her mouth in surprise. She never imagined that the true identity of the "vampire" was Aoko Minato.
At this time, Aoko Minato also saw clearly that the person on the bed was not Keisuke Hiiro, but Sosuke Takagi.
Her face gradually turned pale. So they had known for a long time that she was the murderer and were waiting here on purpose?
Fujiwara Yu calmly stood up and took the syringe from Minato Aoko's hand, with a playful smile on his face:
"Ms. Aoko, no, should I call you Ms. Bat?"
"...How did you realize that the murderer was me?" Aoko Moto's face looked ugly. She failed to complete her revenge plan and would not be able to attack Kagesuke Hime again in the future.
Fujiwara Yuu glanced at Edogawa Conan who was standing at the door and looking at this side vigilantly, and said with a slight smile:
"Because a famous detective perfectly guessed your murder method, we collaborated with Mr. Scarlet... No, we should say we forced Mr. Scarlet to collaborate with us and set a trap to lure you in."
Famous detective?
Ran Mouri blinked in confusion. Could it be that the famous detective Mr. Toji was talking about was... Shinichi?
Edogawa Conan raised the corner of his mouth slightly. He reached out and poked Xiaolan's thigh, handed Yingsi Sosuke's mobile phone to Xiaolan, and explained:
"Sister Xiaolan, I reported everything to Brother Shinichi in advance. He was very worried about you, so he asked me to protect you well. This is the message that Brother Shinichi sent after he realized the murderer's modus operandi."
He knew that he couldn't be with Xiaolan as Kudo, so he had to at least let her know that he missed her, wanted to protect her, and was worried about her because of the case.
Ran Mao Li looked at the contents of the mobile phone, especially the last sentence: Brother Takashi, please protect Xiaolan, she is very important to me, please!
To Shinichi, I am a very important person?
Ran Mouri couldn't help but blush. She could feel her heartbeat quickening. So, her feelings for Shinichi weren't one-sided. Perhaps... he also had feelings for her? Something beyond childhood sweethearts?
Seriously, where is that idiot Shinichi? I really want to convey my feelings to him.
Minato Aoko knew that she had no way to make excuses. She was caught committing a crime, so what else could she say?
She leaned dejectedly against the wall, lowered her head and noticed Feishi Jingjie crawling out from under the bed. It turned out that the real culprit was hiding here.
Fujiwara Yu got up from the bed. He had a lot to ask Minato Aoko, so he said:
"Ms. Aoko, I'll still call you by that name. Is the reason you killed them because of Ms. Yuria, who died six years ago?"
"Mr. Yingsi, you are indeed an excellent police officer... Haha, yes, I am seeking revenge for my sister."
"Revenge?" Hiragawa Toru walked up to Minato Aoko excitedly and asked, "Aoko, what do you mean? Was the young lady murdered by those two... and Mr. Scarlet?!"
"Yes, I worked hard for eight years and finally became a nurse. To tell my sister the good news, I returned to Wulan Village. But to my surprise, Wulan Village had become a ruin... An adventurer who came here told me a stupid story about my sister being sucked by a vampire and then found in the basement of the mansion."
Aoko Minato doesn't believe that vampires really exist, so she works hard to investigate the truth behind her sister's death.
A year ago, when she was working in the hospital, she met a girl who always came with her father. When she learned that her blood type was Bombay type, she asked the patient some questions out of curiosity.
Minato Aoko lowered her head, her eyes slightly red, and said dumbly:
"The girl's father said she had been seriously injured in the past and had suffered greatly because she had no blood to donate. She had been saving her own blood bit by bit ever since. I told her that my blood type was the same as hers, Bombay. Unexpectedly, she asked me, 'Were you the one who donated so much blood to me five years ago?'
