Conan: Ran, I really am Shinichi, you have to believe me!

Page 132

Carlos is a mixed-race person born in Brazil. Because his father, Yoshifusa Yabuuchi, never taught him Japanese from a young age, he only speaks Latin and not Japanese.

He was worried because he couldn't speak the language, was unfamiliar with the place, and his uncle Tanaka Sekisen, who had brought him there, had been arrested. He did whatever Jiang Chengbei told him to do without daring to resist.

So, at Jiang Chengbei's prompting, he obediently gave up his seat and stood aside listening attentively.

Seeing Jiang Chengbei usurp Carlos's place and bully the honest boy, Yamauchi Keiko couldn't stand it and immediately stepped in to uphold justice for her cousin:

“Mr. Jiang Cheng, this is about our family announcing the will. You, an outsider, have no right to sit at the table, do you?”

We hope you can give the Yasuuchi family some face and not disrupt our announcement of the will. Please return the seat to Carlos's cousin. We hope you won't bully foreigners.

Seeing Yabuchi Keiko jump out impatiently, Jiang Chengbei shook his head. This person is too impatient. She can't hide her feelings at all. Maybe she'll self-destruct as soon as a crossbow bolt is shot from the cabinet opposite.

Rather than waiting for her to expose herself, I might as well scare her a little. I'm just killing time anyway, so I might as well get revenge for the arrow that will hit me in the next minute.

"Miss Keiko, since you're so eager for Carlos to sit in my position, could it be that you've set some kind of trap for him, so that he can be killed once the time is up?"

Upon hearing Jiang Chengbei's words, Yabuchi Keiko immediately felt guilty. She gave a few perfunctory laughs and dared not ask Jiang Chengbei to leave his seat again, allowing Carlos to sit in Jiang Chengbei's place.

Although she dared not speak, she had already cursed Jiang Chengbei to the bone in her heart, wishing she could beat this troublemaker to death on the spot.

With Jiang Chengbei's incident, the four members of the Yabuchi family, the will lawyer, and Jiang Chengbei, an outsider, are now sitting around the table.

Meanwhile, Carlos, the other person who will inherit a share of the estate, is now standing by and watching, just like Conan and the others.

Then, just as they were about to begin announcing the will, a whooshing sound rang out, and Jiang Chengbei, who was sitting down, instantly turned his body to dodge a crossbow bolt aimed at him.

Although the timed crossbow bolt wasn't intended for Jiang Chengbei, after occupying this auspicious location, the bolt was indeed aimed at him, so Jiang Chengbei received the 1 kill coin reward for being murdered.

At the same time, Keiko Yabuuchi's skills have also been added to the Detective Conan Shop:

Timer: Add a timer to any object that can be turned on or off. Price: 3 Kill Coins. This skill is maxed out upon purchase and cannot be upgraded.

While Jiang Chengbei was happily looking at the newly released skills and the new 1-kill coin he had just received, the scene had already become a complete mess.

At the same time, Conan immediately ran to the next room and saw the crossbow bolt that had pierced through the paper wall and was now stuck in the ground. Around the point where the crossbow bolt landed, there were several small holes made by the bolt.

It seems that the murderer practiced many times beforehand in order to kill the person sitting in the north seat of Jiangcheng; it was a long-planned scheme.

Having only obtained the 1 kill coin for the act of murder, Jiang Chengbei had not yet obtained the 1 kill coin for the murderous intent he had developed. Therefore, after escaping the ambush, Jiang Chengbei immediately identified the murderer, Yabuchi Keiko, who had asked him to leave his seat so that Carlos could sit down.

First, he ruined his own plans and saved Carlos from dividing the inheritance. Then, he insisted that he was the murderer. Yabuchi Keiko wanted to kill Jiang Chengbei.

Of course, Jiang Chengbei needs an even more important reason to receive another kill from Yabuuchi Keiko.

According to the rules set by the old man when he recorded his will before his death, only those who are present at the will's announcement today can inherit the will. If someone is not present at the announcement, then even if he is one of the six heirs listed in the will, he is not eligible to inherit it.

As luck would have it, after Jiang Chengbei identified Yabuchi Keiko as the murderer, Yamamura Misao received news of multiple explosions at public toilets in Gunma Prefecture. He didn't have time to stay there, so he had to take the attempted murderer and the murder weapon and rush back to the police station as fast as he could.

So, since she hadn't heard about the fairness of the inheritance and might not receive any of it, Keiko Yawauchi refused to get into the police car. She wanted to stay and hear the will before she received her share of the inheritance.

The more she wanted the inheritance, the more Jiang Chengbei opposed her. So, after Jiang Chengbei helped the police arrest her and put her in a police car to prevent her from attending the will announcement, she developed murderous intent towards Jiang Chengbei.

Through a combination of methods, and under Jiang Chengbei's actions and constant verbal taunts, Yabuchi Keiko, who was about to go to jail and couldn't get her inheritance, finally provided Jiang Chengbei with the remaining 1 Kill Coin, allowing Jiang Chengbei to finally collect 2 Kill Coins in this case.

As for why the toilets in Gunma Prefecture and several neighboring prefectures exploded, it's simple: Jiang Chengbei used his transformation ability last night, didn't he?

Since keeping it would be a waste anyway, it turned into a little chubby bird and went for a stroll outside. After arriving at its destination, it put on Shinichi Kudo's face and planted some time bombs and incendiary bombs in various public restrooms.

This morning, as soon as the time came, they all exploded at the same time, immediately causing a shortage of police resources, as everyone had to deal with the issue of separate toilets.

Not only were people killed this time, but several places were also bombed. Kogoro Mouri looked at Conan beside him and immediately felt guilty.

Death is at it again! We need to get out of here before everyone realizes what's happening!

Although this murder and the terrorist attack on the toilet were definitely caused by Conan, the jinx, they didn't do it themselves, so no one suspected them.

After all, with the commotion last night and alibis from Yamamura Misao, Kogoro Mouri, Yukiko, Conan, and others who didn't sleep all night, Jiang Chengbei is not a suspect at all.

Having stayed two extra days in Gunma Prefecture this time, several public toilets had exploded. Coupled with the lessons learned from the previous time in Saitama Prefecture where they also stayed a few extra days and a series of murders occurred, Kogoro Mori quickly gathered everyone to leave.

If Conan stays in Gunma Prefecture any longer, he fears the population will plummet.

No sooner had Jiang Chengbei and his team left Gunma Prefecture than Amuro Tooru and his Zero Group arrived to investigate the second large-scale explosion at the Shinto Toilet.

The last one happened in or around Tokyo, and this one happened near Gunma. Although the types of bombs are different, Amuro Tooru has a feeling that this time it was the same killer or the same organization that did it.

It's a pity that this murderer or organization didn't have the same sense of morality as those legitimate terrorist organizations.

Those terrorist organizations originating from the Middle East, after committing earth-shattering terrorist attacks, are all very disciplined and will jump out to admit it immediately, which saves the police a lot of trouble. Unlike the two terrorist organizations we encountered these past two times, they are sneaky and hiding, much more shameless than regular terrorist organizations. They don't even dare to admit it on TV!

After finding little evidence at the various explosion sites, Amuro Tooru and his team were furious. They wouldn't even dare to go on television and admit it—what kind of terrorist organization was that?!

Moreover, they didn't make any demands, didn't mention any targets, and didn't even shout any slogans. They just came out of nowhere, bombed the place, and then went silent. They didn't even cut out newspaper clippings or post threatening letters. They didn't receive a single request. How can you expect the police to compromise?

They just want to admit defeat, but they can't find anyone to compromise with in talks, which is giving the compromise faction at the top a real headache.

Amuro Tooru and his Zero Group were having a headache in Gunma Prefecture, while Eisho Kita and the others discussed things on the way and headed towards Tokyo.

There were too many cases and too many deaths along the way, especially in Saitama and Gunma. In Saitama, cases kept coming, and in Gunma, several public toilets were blown up. We can't roam around outside anymore; we have to go back to Beika Town 5-chome, this auspicious place, to suppress the evil spirits.

Comparing all the places Conan has been to, a clear conclusion can be drawn: apart from not causing murders at school, staying at Jiangcheng Beijia's house is the safest place for Conan.

Chapter 191: Seeing Jiang Chengbei, Conan, and Vodka get to know each other, the Miyano sisters' worldviews were shattered.

In this world, due to Jiang Chengbei's meddling, Professor Agasa and Conan did not recognize each other, and Professor Agasa's role as the "King of Kids" was ruthlessly replaced by Jiang Chengbei.

Jiang Chengbei and Conan went on a trip out of town this time without bringing the Teitan Three Idiots, which made them a little disappointed. So after returning to Tokyo, Jiang Chengbei took them to the Starlight Hotel for a big meal at their request.

This time it was mainly for the children, so only Jiangchengbei, the Teitan trio, and Conan went; there were no other people.

As a result, just as they finished ordering their food and were about to start their feast, the Miyano sisters walked in with their bodyguard and supervisor, Vodka.

Because Vodka was following behind them, the Miyano sisters didn't want to cause trouble for their neighbor Jiang Chengbei and his cousin. So when they saw Jiang Chengbei and Conan behind them, they pretended not to know them, didn't even glance at them, and walked past Jiang Chengbei's table with normal expressions, heading towards the corner.

Vodka, who was following behind them, also saw Conan when they passed by Jiangcheng North where Conan and his group were.

Especially after seeing Conan glare at Vodka with that fierce, clenched-teeth, and ready-to-fight look, Vodka immediately stopped, stood at attention in front of Conan, and bowed at a 90-degree angle.

"Daughter Red, hello. I'm so sorry about what happened last time. Please forgive me."

Although I apologized last time on the Shinkansen, it was my older brother who made me apologize, so it lacked sincerity. But this time, I'm apologizing to you sincerely. I'm sorry about what happened last time; it was my fault.

When Vodka apologized to Conan, Conan almost couldn't hold back anymore. Luckily, Jiang Chengbei was there. While holding Conan down, he glanced at the Teitan Three Idiots next to him.

After Jiang Chengbei reminded him, Conan, who was feeling dizzy, finally calmed down. He still had three friends with him and couldn't let them get in trouble, so Conan reluctantly endured it in the end.

The Miyano sisters, who were walking ahead and didn't want to implicate Conan in Jiangcheng North, were shocked to find that they recognized Conan at the vodka bar and even bowed to him to apologize. They were so shocked that their mouths dropped open.

The last time they witnessed something so shocking was when they learned that Gin had been carried back and almost didn't make it back.

No, this time Vodka bowing and apologizing to Conan was even more shocking to them than the last time Gin was injured.

Besides the scene that has just happened shattered their worldview, the fact that vodka calls Conan "Daughter Red" also piques their curiosity.

Because they didn't know the meaning of the Chinese pronunciation of "女儿红" (nü'er hong), they only remembered the pronunciation and didn't realize it was a wine name.

While Vodka was apologizing to Conan, Jiang Chengbei carefully considered whether he knew Vodka in his current identity.

After some recollection, he seemed to know Uozuka, but not Vodka. So, after Vodka finished apologizing, he spoke up enthusiastically:

"Uozuka, it's been a long time since we last met at the shrine."

It's fate that we met today. Come, let's have another pair of chopsticks and eat together.

Upon hearing Jiang Chengbei call out Vodka's name, Conan exclaimed in shock, "You're Uozuka? The Uozuka with the big, cute eyes at the shrine?"

"Yes, Daughter Red, I am Yuzuka, didn't you recognize me before?"

"That shouldn't be the case. When we first met, didn't I tell you that I, Vodka, am Uozuka?"

Compared to Conan's shock, the Miyano sisters were the most shocked. They never expected that Vodka not only knew Conan, but Jiang Chengbei also knew Vodka. This world is too amazing.

While the Miyano sisters were still in a state of surprise, Vodka, at Jiang Chengbei's invitation, had already happily sat down and turned to them, saying:

"You guys find a place to sit. I'm having dinner with my friends today."

Vodka was very happy when he said this. He used to feel very uncomfortable when he went out with the Miyano sisters. The two of them chatted and laughed and had a great time. Only he, the person in charge of monitoring, was very lonely. He had no one to talk to or anyone to pass the time.

Especially during meals, the two of them would sit at one table, leaving him to eat alone at his own table, feeling neglected.

Now it's great, I've finally found friends to eat with today, and I don't have to eat alone at a table anymore.

"Yuzuka, these two young ladies are your friends, so sit down and eat with us."

We're all kids here, and one more fierce-looking burly man like you is an eyesore, but two more gentle and pretty girls will make things alright.

While Jiang Chengbei warmly invited Vodka and the Miyano sisters to sit down and have dinner together, Conan suppressed his burning anger and pondered the relationship between them.

He never expected that Jiang Chengbei's neighbor was also someone connected to the winery. So how many secrets was Jiang Chengbei hiding?

"Uncle Uozuka, why do you always wear sunglasses?"

"Yeah, Uncle Uozuka, why do you even wear sunglasses when you eat?"

"You always wear sunglasses, do you have a sty?"

After Vodka and the Miyano sisters sat down for dinner at Jiang Chengbei's warm invitation, the Teitan trio, who had become acquainted with them, quickly became friends with Vodka and started chatting away.

While Vodka was experiencing the joy of playing with children for the first time, the Miyano sisters and Conan were testing each other.

The Miyano sisters want to know about Conan's relationship with Vodka, and Conan wants to know about the relationship between the Miyano sisters and Vodka. They both want to know the details about each other.

While Conan and the Miyano sisters were scheming against each other, Jiang Chengbei and Vodka, who were responsible for playing with the children, also cleared up what had happened before. They reconciled and became good friends despite their previous conflict.

After a big meal, the group of people, each with their own ulterior motives, became good friends on the surface.

Especially after experiencing major life events such as his parents' divorce and his father's murder, Conan matured a lot. When faced with Vodka, his father's killer, he didn't immediately shout for a fight, but instead endured it and pretended to be a child to extract information.

After chatting with Vodka, Conan found that Vodka was much better than Jiang Chengbei. At least Vodka answered some unimportant questions, which was much more helpful than Jiang Chengbei, who didn't say anything at all.

As they were finishing their meal, Jiang Chengbei and Conan left together to go to the restroom. Finding a secluded spot, Jiang Chengbei pulled out a handgun and handed it to Conan.

"Kudo, your father's killer is right in front of you. Even if he wasn't the mastermind, even if he wasn't the one who did it, he was definitely involved."

"Weren't you always talking about revenge? Now's your chance. Take this opportunity to kill him and avenge your father."

Jiang Chengbei forced a pistol into Conan's hand, leaving Conan speechless: "You were just befriending Vodka, and now you're offering me a pistol and urging me to kill him? Is this how you treat your brothers?"

"There are so many ordinary people here. If a gunfight breaks out, it will endanger them."

And have you forgotten the lesson from last time? Vodka, that terrorist, always carries grenades. If he were to throw a few grenades around, wouldn't it cause a tragedy?

Seeing that Conan disagreed with his plan, Jiang Chengbei continued to urge him: "Didn't you go to Hawaii with your dad to learn marksmanship? You're a very accurate shot, aren't you?"

"If you kill him with one shot, take down Vodka instantly, how could he possibly have time to pull out a grenade or a pistol and exchange fire with you?"
