Chapter 3417 3429 [Two Shots, One Life]
"Honda!" The long-haired man who broke in pointed his gun at the "assault police" and yelled, "I can't forgive you. Give me your life!"
Everyone present was stunned. Saotome Souka, the host, stepped forward and said, "Mishima, what are you doing?"
The "assault policeman" who was being pointed at with a gun was also startled. He raised his hands and took a few steps to the side, saying, "Don't be impulsive. What's wrong? I didn't provoke you."
The long-haired man was very emotional: "I have endured it for a long time, and I can't bear it anymore! - Go to hell!"
He roared and squeezed the trigger hard.
With a bang of a gunshot, the "assault police" was shot in the muzzle and fell to the ground with a thud.
The long-haired man watched the scene with dull eyes, pointed the gun at his temple, and pulled the trigger again.
"Wait!" Conan finally came to his senses and rushed forward to stop it.
Beside him, "Kamen Rider" also ran over quickly: "Mishima, don't be impulsive!!"
However, the two men had just run a few steps when the trigger was already pulled to the bottom.
There was a bang of a gunshot, blood splattered, and the long-haired man also fell to the ground with a thud, becoming the second corpse on the scene.
"What, what's going on?!" Suzuki Sonoko stood beside Jiang Xia and Mao Lilan, watching the scene in shock and confusion. She took out her phone and instinctively wanted to call the emergency number, but then she hesitated: one bullet hit the heart, and the other went through the head... Is emergency still needed?
Just as I was thinking about it, suddenly, one of the "corpses" on the ground moved.
Amidst everyone's shocked gazes, the "assault policeman" covered his chest and slowly sat up.
He lowered his head and looked at the muzzle of the gun on his clothes in pain, then opened his coat to reveal the bulletproof vest underneath.
"Playing the part of 'assault police officer' today was the right move." He covered the spot where he was shot, a look of fear on his face. "If I were wearing Kamen Rider's clothes like usual, I'd be...hiss."
The other people at the party didn't react until then. Saotome Souka and Kamen Rider rushed to his side: "Are you okay? Don't move, we'll call an ambulance for you!"
Suzuki Sonoko was distracted for a moment when she realized her job had been taken away. She fumbled with her phone, deleted the number she had just entered and changed it to 110, but when she turned around, she saw Xiaolan had already called the police.
"..." After a moment's silence, the self-proclaimed assistant detective put away his phone and sighed like an ordinary bystander. "What is going on?... What kind of deep hatred could have caused someone to kill someone and then kill themselves?"
Conan, however, found something else very strange: "When people shoot themselves, wouldn't most people point the muzzle of the gun at themselves? But when this person shot, why was the muzzle nearly 10 centimeters away from his head?"
Suzuki Sonoko's eye twitched. "Your focus is so weird, kid—what's the problem with that? It's impossible for everyone to commit suicide like in TV dramas. Maybe they just like this posture!"
Conan: “…”
Alas, it’s impossible to reason with such an idiot classmate.
As for the smart students...
Conan looked up at Jiang Xia and was silent for a moment. He then withdrew his gaze as if nothing had happened and began to think to himself.
…
It wasn't long before a large group of familiar-looking police officers arrived at the scene and began to work skillfully.
After a thorough inspection, Officer Takagi summarized the information: "The student who committed suicide was named Katsuji Mishima, 21 years old, a student at the School of Physical Education at Touto University. His cause of death..."
Glancing hesitantly at Jiang Xia, Officer Gao Mu continued, "After shooting his friend, he aimed a pistol at his own temple in full view of the public and committed suicide."
After saying this, not only Officer Takagi, but even Inspector Megure fell into deep thought.
"So..." Inspector Megure glanced at Jiang Xia and said in disbelief, "What happened today was a suicide?"
"Of course." Maori Kogoro looked at his former boss, his face full of confusion. "What else could it be but suicide? We all saw it."
Inspector Megure glanced at him: "..." I originally thought it was suicide, but after you said that, I suddenly felt that there might be another hidden story behind it.
in addition……
Inspector Megure looked at the group of monsters gathered on the other side of the basement and asked Jiang Xia in confusion: "What's going on with that group of people? Why do they all look so strange?"
Jiang Xia: "They were having a Kamen Rider-themed costume party—the man who was shot, Mr. Honda, was dressed as a member of the assault police team."
After he said this, Inspector Megure remembered that in addition to Mishima who committed suicide, there was another victim who was shot.
Inspector Megure looked at this rare survivor, somewhat puzzled: "How did you survive?"
The "assault policeman" had already taken off his outer clothes, and the bulletproof vest underneath had also been stripped off by the emergency personnel and placed aside.
Hearing the police's words, he raised his hand with difficulty and pointed at the bulletproof vest. "The role I play today is a member of the assault police team. Every time we fight the space monsters, the assault police have to wear this kind of clothes. In order to reproduce it, I specially bought a piece... Fortunately, I didn't get lazy, otherwise I would be doomed today."
"I see, you're really lucky." Inspector Megure sighed. "Even with a bulletproof vest, being shot at close range can cause significant damage. So you were shot and fell to the ground, and the person on the other side thought he had successfully killed you, so he shot himself?"
The "assault policeman" nodded with a look of fear: "That should be the case."
Inspector Megure scratched his head and asked curiously, "So why did he want to kill you in public with a gun? Is there a grudge between you two?"
The "assault policeman" hesitated to speak: "This..."
Seeing this, Saotome Souka, who was anxiously watching nearby, couldn't help but speak up for him, "Honda and Mishima have always had a good relationship, but half a month ago, when we were planning this party, Honda said something casually that angered Mishima, and they parted ways on bad terms."
Jiang Xia pulled a stool over and sat down, looking at the "assault policeman": "What did you say?"
Honda Osamu looked very regretful: "I just saw the motorcycle he was riding and said, 'Your motorcycle is too rustic'..."
Maori Kogoro was full of disbelief: "Just because of such a trivial matter, he shot you and then committed suicide? You are making up stories!"
The onlooker, Kamen Rider, shook his head. He glanced at the body lying on the ground and spoke carefully, "Actually... this is not impossible."
