Chapter 20: The Demon Slayer Becomes a Demon After All

"Why are you again!"

Looking at Maori Kogoro in front of him, the twilight officer has half-moon eyes.

He didn't know that this was the first time he had met Mori Kogoro at the scene of the crime.

"yes, of course, no one has ever touched the body, Mr. Officer."

Mori Kogoro saluted and reported to Officer Twilight with a hippie smile.

"So, has anyone ever seen a prisoner?"

Officer Twilight turned to Director Ochiai and the others on the side.

"Yes, I've checked everyone, but no one seems to have seen it." Director Ochiai replied.

Iida, who was on the side, said, "Maybe the security camera over there will capture something." ”

As he spoke, he pointed in the direction of the security camera.

Looking in the direction of his finger, he saw an anti-theft camera.

The group went to the surveillance room to investigate the surveillance footage.

Yuki Shirakawa, who had been standing in the corner since the police came, walked to Director Ochiai's side at this time.

Yuki Shirakawa pursed his lips and asked the question in his heart: "Is it really worth it for you to do this?" ”

The head of the Ochiai Pavilion was shocked and looked at the girl on the side, "Miss Hoshino, I don't know what you're talking about." ”

Because of the previous conversation, Director Ochiai has an impression of the girl in front of him.

Yuki Shirakawa didn't speak, just stared into his eyes.

Director Ochiai was a little overwhelmed, and the eyes of the girl in front of him were clear and transparent, so that people couldn't tell lies.

Finally, Director Ochiai was defeated and sighed.

"I wonder how you know I did it?"

This can stop Yuki Shirakawa, she can't say what she knew about watching anime in her previous life, right? I had to make up a reason to confuse the past.

"I was born with a good sense of smell, and you smell blood."

Director Ochiai opened his mouth wide, crying and laughing, he really didn't expect that he was defeated for such a reason.

"The boss of Manaka is so selfish that he wants to destroy this sacred art museum.

This art museum is like my child, and I definitely can't accept being destroyed by him, so I took this demon out with my own hands. ”

Director Ochiai told his motive for killing, and although Yuki Shirakawa had known about it for a long time, he still listened to his story quietly.

"I won't tell the police, but I hope you can turn yourself in and get your sentence reduced."

Yuki Shirakawa said, "After all, there is another existence here that can see your methods." ”

Hearing Yuki Shirakawa's words, Director Ochiai was a little surprised, he didn't expect that this girl was not going to expose him.

"I'd like to ask why, is that okay?"

Yuki Shirakawa smiled, "How can there be so many why?" It's just my own pleasure, and you can understand that your pursuit of art has moved me. ”

Director Ochiai smiled as well, "That's really my pleasure, Hoshino-san."

However, I would like to wait and see if it is true that as you say, someone will see what I do. ”

Yuki Shirakawa didn't care, just said a word to him and stopped talking, leaving only the director of Ochiai on the side in a daze.

Turning their gaze to Officer Twilight, they had already finished watching the surveillance footage.

A group of people are successfully misled by Director Ochiai's note, believing that the prisoner is Kurota.

Only Conan doesn't feel right.

Yuki Shirakawa and Director Ochiai stood together and watched Conan run around the scene.

The more Ochiai looked at it, the more surprised he became, and he watched with his own eyes as the little kid found his omissions step by step.

I thought that the person Yuki Shirakawa was talking about would be that Maori Kogoro, but now it seems that it should be this child.

Seeing that it was only a matter of time before Conan cracked his tricks, he no longer had any luck.

Walked up to Officer Twilight.

"Everyone, don't look for it, I surrendered, and the prisoner was me."

Regardless of Officer Twilight's surprised expression, Director Ochiai explained his modus operandi and motives.

Conan listened, consistent with his reasoning, but it was still a little strange that the prisoner had turned himself in.

Not only Conan, but also the others, including Officer Twilight, also felt a little strange, because there were still too few prisoners who surrendered in the world of Kogaku.

"Excuse me, although it is a bit inappropriate for me to ask, but why did you turn yourself in?

After all, we have just basically decided that Kuwata is the murderer. ”

Officer Twilight couldn't help but ask.

Director Ochiai glanced at Yuki Shirakawa, who was still in the corner.

"A young lady woke me up just now, and he was right, I thought I was a demon slayer, and after all, I was still stained with demon blood and became a demon, and I was a murderer after all."

Following the line of sight of Director Ochiai, everyone saw Yuki Shirakawa leaning against the corner of the wall eating candy.

"Ahaha, it turned out to be Hoshino's sister, I didn't even notice that you were here just now."

Officer Twilight's eyes lit up as soon as he saw Yuki Shirakawa.

"So it was Hoshino who persuaded the prisoner to turn himself in!"

Yuki Shirakawa saw that everyone noticed it, so he walked over.

"Well, I hope that the judge will be able to reduce his sentence at that time for the sake of the circumstances in which he turned himself in."

Harina Hoshino gave her reasons.

……

Seeing that Director Ochiai was about to be taken away by the police, Yuki Shirakawa chased after him.

"Director, I will buy this art museum in my own name, and the art museum will continue to run in the future, you can rest assured."

Looking at Director Ochiai, who looked lonely, Yuki Shirakawa said softly.

Hearing her words, Director Ochiai's expression instantly improved, and he was most relieved that this art museum was the most relieved, he didn't expect this kind of good news to be there now.

He bowed to Yuki Shirakawa.

"Thank you very much, Miss Hoshino. Thank you for keeping the museum alive, and sure enough, as I said before, you are a kind girl. ”

At this moment, the old man used an honorific title for the girl in front of him.

In this way, Yuki Shirakawa watched him be taken away by the police.

Xiaolan behind him asked curiously, "Qing Na, do you really want to buy this art museum?" ”

Yuki Shirakawa nodded.

"Well, with my possessions, buying this museum is easy, and that's the last thing I can do for him."

Looking at the girl in front of him, Conan finally couldn't help but ask, "Sister Harina, why are you so good to him?" He's just a murderer! ”

Maori Kogoro on the side was also a little curious about why the girl was so kind.

"Conan, you know what? No one is born bad, and many are forced.

People always have something that they have to protect with all their might.

Like Uncle Maori, if something happens to Xiaolan, I think you'll definitely go crazy. ”

Hearing Yuki Shirakawa say this, Maori Kogoro on the side nodded.

Indeed, if something happens to Xiaolan, she will definitely go crazy.

"And the same is true of Director Ochiai, this museum is something that he desperately wants to protect, so he ......"

Speaking of which, Mori Kogoro and they understood, and they began to understand Director Ochiai's approach somewhat.

"For me, helping him is just a simple thing, and buying this museum is a good deed every day."

Conan nodded as if he didn't understand, for him, he preferred the thrill of using reasoning to push the prisoner to a dead end, and he didn't realize this at this time.

Everything will not be understood until after the events of Moonshadow Island.
