Chapter 5 Unlocking the Heart
[Achieve the achievement · The First Reversal, and be rewarded with one skill extraction. 】
[Complete two case reversals, turn Xiang Yuanguang from a criminal to the only non-suspect, turn Arita Kousuke from a criminal to a non-suspect, and reward 150 points of reversal value. ]
Koto Ichiro was arrested urgently.
Arita Kousuke and Hamada Mahiro left after receiving compensation from the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department.
The police officers from the three search departments began to clean up the crime scene.
Inspector Megure stood nearby and chatted with Mugen-Mitsugu and others.
This fat policeman who always wears a yellow uniform looks very kind.
...It would be better if you had some ability to handle cases.
"Hey, this time it's all thanks to you, Brother Xiang Yuan..."
"Stop it. You treated me like a criminal and even took over my office's land. Shouldn't you give me some compensation?"
"I'm telling you, I'm a genius lawyer who has never lost a game since my debut. Can't I add a little extra for lost wages and the fees for helping me?"
As soon as Xiang Yuanguang opened his mouth, he started talking to death.
In response, Inspector Megure could only smile awkwardly and touch his head.
This... You haven't been open for business for the past three days, and your office is even cooler than Brother Maori's.
What kind of lost wages can I get? But I still have to pay it, after all, he is a lawyer...
"I know, I know. I will notify you to go to the police station to get compensation when the time comes."
"We won't disturb you from working. We'll leave first."
He chose to run away with Officer Takagi and Inspector Megure.
He was even unwilling to stay and chat with Kogoro Mori for a few more words, for fear that a lawyer's letter would be delivered to his pocket.
No kidding, that's a lawyer...
It's not fun to run into a lawyer these days, even if the lawyer seems to have a strong sense of justice.
"Huh? Really? You're leaving right now. Well, let's go too."
"What are you still looking at, kid? Let's go."
Kogoro Mouri turned to look at Conan, then picked up the kid and prepared to run away.
But he met Xiang Yuanguang's gloomy eyes.
(Oh no, now I’m a substitute! No wonder Megure ran so fast, it turns out he was waiting for me here!)
"Haha, you're still here... Oh, yes, this is your office."
"Oh, well, uh...see you another day, see you another day."
After a laugh, Kogoro Mori prepared to run away.
His daughter, Mao Lilan, couldn't help but sigh when she saw her father in such a terrible state.
Really, if compensation is required for something like this, then it must be paid.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Lawyer, my dad is always like this..."
"Could you please tell me how much compensation you need?"
(Compensation…? What compensation?)
Xiang Yuanguang touched his chin and remembered that he seemed to have mentioned this before.
He waved his hand.
"No need, these compensations from Inspector Megure are enough. Just don't let Uncle Mori steal my business one day."
"I actually wanted to talk to this little brother alone, but I was just too embarrassed to ask."
"Ah... Looking for Conan? The lawyer said so before."
Ran Mao Li did not agree immediately. She looked down at Conan, seeking the opinion of the person involved.
If Conan didn't want to, she would definitely not agree.
This is also true for Kogoro Mouri, right?
probably.
"Okay, big brother must have something urgent if he wants to see me."
"Sister Xiaolan, don't worry, I'm fine."
Conan blinked his eyes.
Maori Ran hesitated and was about to nod, but Maori Kogoro took the lead.
"I know, I know. Go ahead. Lan and I will be waiting for you outside."
"Ah, kid, if anything happens... you know."
(Do I look like a bad guy?)
Xiang Yuanguang scratched his hedgehog head.
But it is necessary to be more vigilant. After all, it is not good for children to be alone with strangers.
The two walked towards the office.
Waiting at the door of the office.
He snapped his fingers towards Yuan Guang and said.
"It was you, Conan, who just pointed out the reason why I was suspected of the criminal..."
"No, Kudo Shinichi."
I tested it, box!
(What did he say, Kudo Shinichi!?)
Conan's expression suddenly turned gloomy.
He leaned against the door of the office, his hand already touching his special watch.
After the man directly asked him his name, his reaction was very unnatural.
Sure enough, I knew his true identity.
"who are you?"
There was a hint of coldness in Conan's voice.
Unlike the previous case, what we are discussing now really concerns the lives of him and the people he cares about.
If this guy in front of me is a member of the Black Organization...
"I have introduced myself a long time ago, right? I am a lawyer, the director of Xiang Yuan Law Firm, Xiang Yuanguang."
"My purpose is simple, which is to make you admit that you are [Kudo Shinichi] and not [Edogawa Conan]."
"Besides that, I don't want to get involved in anything between you and the Black Organization."
Xiang Yuanguang kept staring at Conan.
In fact, what he saw was not Conan's body, but five heart locks intertwined with chains.
Since he already knew the answer, he could easily use a trick to open Conan's heart.
"I just want you to admit this fact."
Emphasized to Yuan Guang again.
(As long as I admit this fact...? What's the point?)
(Since you already know my true identity, what's the point of asking this?)
(Unless he's not sure...!)
Conan is still reasoning according to the normal logic of events.
Then he couldn't hold it any longer.
"You are the famous high school detective Shinichi Kudo. After solving the murder case in the amusement park, you accidentally discovered the deal of the men in black. After being discovered by the men in black, you were knocked unconscious. After waking up, you became short in stature but with extraordinary intelligence..."
I guess it’s not that this lawyer is uncertain, he just has a hole in his brain.
He knows everything so clearly? Why does it feel like he has said this many times?
"As you know... yes, I am Kudo Shinichi."
Conan adjusted his voice-changer bow tie.
He changed his voice into Kudo Shinichi's voice.
"So, what's your purpose in telling me this?"
(My purpose is of course to have a happy lock.)
Xiang Yuanguang raised the corner of his mouth, looking mysterious.
Actually I'm just happy that the Heart Lock function is back.
"Nothing, just confirming a guess."
"There's nothing for you to do here, go back, goodbye..."
Conan looked at Xiang Yuanguang with a question mark on his face as he walked into his office, then closed the door and refused him entry.
(What a weird one...)
crunch.
The door opened, and Conan glanced at Minamoto, then emphasized.
"Never again!"
Boom!
The door was slammed shut.
Conan only felt the north wind whistling...
“…What is this?”
The Death God's elementary school student was disheveled in the wind.
