Kyogoku stared at the bracelet on his wrist, dazed.
And after finishing talking nonsense, Leon was about to leave.
But after turning around and finding Sano staring at him, Leon suddenly looked away with a guilty conscience, coughed before pretending not to notice, and left the hospital with the braided bodyguard behind him.
Sano squinted his eyes and didn’t move until the doctor came out and said that the problem was no longer serious and he just needed to wait until the person woke up. Kyogoku really relaxed a lot.
Sano then dragged Kyogoku to the side to ask questions.
Naturally, the question was about what Leon had just said, and Kyogoku Zhen replied that after the game in the afternoon, the other party went to the players’ lounge to talk to him.
First, he asked Kyogoku if he really wanted to be a bodyguard.
After being rejected, he laughed, and then talked about Kyogoku’s fists and how they would cause trouble to people around him, but he didn’t go into details.
Until now.
Looking at Kyogoku’s somewhat shaken and confused eyes, Sano patted his shoulder, still said nothing, turned and left.
…a little strange.
Kyogoku was really shaken by two words, and the attack that happened to happen. Sano originally suspected that it was the rich second generation who was behind it, but looking at it now, it feels more like Leon’s handiwork, and the purpose is to make this person A karate king doesn’t dare to take action so he can take down the cyanotic fist?
There was clearly a chance to kill Suzuki Sonoko, but he just stopped.
It was not because he was afraid of the power of the Suzuki family, nor was he just trying to give a warning to make Suzuki Sonoko be afraid when he woke up, but he wanted to leave some room for Kyogoku to really have some scruples, instead of just going berserk.
But just like this, it can make a person whose will attribute is definitely not low, confused.
Sure enough, there was something wrong with that guy.
On the way back to the hotel, Sano began to think unconsciously.
Gin over there had already sent Lyon’s relevant information through the winery’s intelligence database. Even Sano himself had taken the time to hack into this guy’s computer and mobile phone, but he couldn’t find anything crucial. If there is anything to be concerned about.
That is because Lyon and Singapore officials are not getting along well.
This is information that is not particularly secret, but that few people know, and is close to gossip. Specifically, in the early years, Lyon proposed a construction plan, but it was rejected by the officials.
…This smell is a bit familiar. Although there is no reason, Sano feels that it is part of the motive. It seems that similar things have happened before.
I can’t quite remember it…
But judging from my personal feeling, maybe I have to watch the fireworks again this time?
All in all, Leon is currently the biggest suspect. Putting aside what happened later, there are two people dead at the moment, Chen Xuelin and Zhang Rachel.
That’s right, the latter Zhang Rachel, who had made an appointment with Mouri Kogoro this afternoon, has also been judged dead. Her body is in the room where the gems are placed in the stadium. Kuroba Kaito has just entered, and there is a place on the display table. When Zhang Rachel was revealed, he became the biggest suspect. The reason why the police were so cruel.
It is estimated that there are also factors in this regard.
In addition, there are detailed information about Chen Xuelin’s case.
Sano has also used technological means to collect them all.
Killed inside the mall.
At first, she walked out of the elevator alone, and then she kept swaying and bumping into many passers-by. Only then was it discovered that Chen Xuelin had a knife stuck in her back, and there was a lot of blood on her body, until she finally collapsed.
But just when more and more passers-by gathered together, they planned to call the police.
The explosion suddenly sounded, and the entire mall immediately fell into chaos. All circuits were short-circuited, and even the surveillance video was lost. There was a blank period of nearly half an hour. Then the police arrived at the scene and confirmed the identity of the deceased. After investigating the scene, they found Kaitou Kidd’s card. .
…During this period, Leon showed up without hesitation. Later, through inquiries and investigations, the police determined that he was on the other side when Chen Xuelin fell down and there were witnesses. Today, the autopsy result of Zhang Rachel was that her throat was cut with a knife.
Both of them have a lot of connections with Lyon.
Leaving aside the fact that Kuroba Kaito is the murderer from an outsider’s perspective, Leon’s suspicion seems a bit abnormal, but if you say this guy is just a troublemaker, Sano feels that there is something wrong with him.
There are accomplices and they are being used.
Based on current clues and past experience, Sano came to this judgment.
However, there are too few specific details. If you want to find out the truth, you will probably have to look further.
…Originally, if only two people were killed, Sano didn’t want to get involved, but according to the current situation, failure to protect all people would be a large-scale indiscriminate killing. Even if he didn’t want to get involved, he would have to get involved.
After shaking his head, Sano no longer thought about it.
But a phone call the next second provided Sano with new information.
… Earlier, because of the annoying phone messages, Sano simply turned his phone to silent and even turned off vibrate. However, after sending the surveillance video to Gin, although he still didn’t say much, the other party said nothing. I have accepted it temporarily and will no longer be annoying.
He only said that he would discuss the details after returning to Neon, so Sano transferred him back.
“Boss, I heard that you are looking up information about a Singaporean boss named Leon?”
Ito Takashi’s voice came from the phone.
Sano glanced at the Maori Lan people walking in front.
Instead of pinching his throat to change his voice, he directly opened a certain software and turned the call voice into a mechanical voice: “Yes, what’s wrong?”
“…Nothing, I happen to know him, so I just want to provide you with some information.”
Do you even know people from Singapore?
Sano thought back to the mental hospital where Ito Takashi had been admitted in the information he had read earlier. Are there any hospitals in Singapore?
In addition, since he knew that he was in Chalion and still called, does that mean that Ito Taka can provide more than just the information in the intelligence library?
“Well, you say.”
Ito Taka immediately explained.
…The general meaning is that Leon is Ito Takashi’s junior brother. As for which aspect of his master, Sano knew the answer without having to listen, and it turned out to be true.
Hypnosis.
“I’m not really familiar with him. We’ve only met twice. Although he’s older than me, he got started later than me. In terms of specific abilities, I’ve heard that he’s just careless, or he’s more inclined to use psychology. .”
“Well, I understand.”
Sano, who knew what he was talking about, should have hung up the phone directly, but out of curiosity, he couldn’t help asking: “Can you tell me the name of your master?”
“Of course, but if you want to recruit him to join the gang, or simply want to get to know him, then I can only regret to tell you that he died a few years ago, otherwise Leon would not be so half-baked. “
“……Fine.”
Sano didn’t think much and hung up the phone.
There was nothing special after that. Except for Kyogoku who stayed in the hospital and Conan who didn’t know why he went there, the others just went back to sleep.
But Sano suddenly had an idea.
“You guys go back first, I’ll go take care of something.”
Sano, who didn’t even bother to find an excuse, left the team and went directly to Leon’s mansion, but when Kuroba Kaito saw this, he also left the team.
“…Why are you following me?”
Sano glanced at Kuroba Kaito. The boy’s injury was handled quite well. Of course, it was a gunshot wound. No matter how well he handled it, if he could act like everything was normal, he could be considered very tolerable.
Maybe I can bear it.
By following him beyond necessary actions, has the Phantom Thief turned into a detective?
So curious?
“hey-hey.”
Kuroba Kaito smiled: “I want to say thank you.”
“First of all, I don’t remember doing anything that requires you to thank me.”
Sano first denied it as usual, and then said: “Secondly, since it is a thank you, don’t just say it with words but show actual expressions. Haven’t your parents ever taught you such a simple truth?”
Kuroba Kaito: “…”
Gee, this guy is still so realistic.
Kuroba Kaito, who originally planned to stir things up, gave up the idea of having sex and asked instead: “Are you planning to investigate that Leon?”
“So be it.”
Sano lit a cigarette: “Although personally, I can only say that I want to test his ability. It will probably be useless for you to follow him.”
“Don’t say that.”
Kuroba Kaito smiled playfully: “We are all on the same team and we have to advance and retreat together.”
Sano curled his lips, but did not refuse to follow.
So the two came to the Lyon Mansion and met the hypnotist.
Seeing Sano, Leon still felt uncontrollably timid.
But in the end, he managed to hold on and said hello politely: “You came to see me at such a late hour. Do the two famous detectives have any questions for me?”
“no.”
Sano approached Lyon: “I am simply curious about what Mr. Lyon said to my juniors just now. Is the God of Battle something like Mr. Lyon’s belief? Are you not an atheist?”
Leon was stunned for a moment, obviously not expecting Sano to ask this.
After a burst of awkward laughter, Leon could only say: “So be it.”
“oh.”
Sano didn’t care whether Leon was referring to his belief that the God of Battle was the God of War or whether he was an atheist, and said: “Then Kyogoku and I are about the same. In terms of practicing martial arts, this makes me a little doubtful. Am I not recognized by the God of Battle? Do I also need to undergo a test? “
“Why?”
Leon was stunned again, and so was Kuroba Kaito next to him.
…What on earth is this guy thinking?
Seeing that Leon hesitated for a long time and didn’t respond, Sano raised his eyebrows deliberately and said displeased: “Why, you are willing to help Kyogoku, but you are not willing to help me?”
As a well-known local snake, Leon shouldn’t be afraid of Sano at all.
But as soon as these words came out, Leon was still startled and quickly dug into his pocket: “Yes, yes, I just happen to have an extra hand rope here…”
Sano just watched Leon tie his hand rope.
“So, I also need to wait until the hand rope is broken before I am recognized?”
After looking at the bracelet, Sano asked Leon.
“Um……”
Leon didn’t know what to say, so he could only nod.
“Yeah.”
Sano narrowed his eyes, suddenly took out the knife from his pocket and cut off the hand rope.
“Then this is the end of it.”
Looking at the cold knife in Sano’s hand, the corners of Kuroba Kaito’s eyes twitched crazily, Leon’s eyes widened, and the air fell into silence for a while.
“why are you not replying.”
Sano pressed forward step by step, but Leon just stood here blankly like a student who was caught by the teacher in junior high school and couldn’t react except silence.
Kuroba Kaito was so excited that he didn’t dare to breathe, especially since Sano still held a knife in his hand, feeling that he might stab Leon’s throat at any time.
…The operation of directly cutting the rope with a knife is obviously against the rules.
But what Kuroba Kaito is more worried about is whether Sano will simply perform a wave of more foul operations, such as solving the person who asked the question if he can’t solve the problem… He is afraid of people, what kind of detective is this.
Is it black?
Fortunately, Sano didn’t really stab Leon, but just patted him on the shoulder, and then asked softly: “Why did you only use your hypnosis on Kyogoku, but not on me? Isn’t it because you don’t have confidence? You’re half-assed. “
Just listening to the first half, you might think that Sano felt unhappy about being treated differently, but the second half was full of ridicule, which was different. Especially when the words hypnotism came out, the Lyonnais were about to be I was so shocked that I didn’t even notice the half-assed comment.
However, Kuroba Kaito behind him couldn’t hear him because Sano lowered his voice.
Seeing that Leon was still as unresponsive as a piece of wood, Sano pinched his neck again and forced him to look at her.
“Let me teach you what true hypnosis is.”
Sano put the knife back in his pocket, and then pulled out half of the black knife’s handle from the wallet in his pocket. He held it for blessing, but did not pull it out completely. Therefore, whether it was Kuroba Kaito or Leon didn’t notice anything was wrong. The next second, a scarlet light suddenly appeared in his eyes that were staring at the other person. The phantom evil spirit floated out of the modified ghost coat and attached itself to the other person’s body.
Before Leon could even react, the man’s eyes glowed red, and endless red filled his entire field of vision.
It’s more than just visual.
The pungent smell of blood was nauseating. Although he was inside the house, the howling wind made his eardrums hurt. The pressure even made Leon feel that his face was about to deform, and he couldn’t even stand on his feet. Of course, this caused The biggest reason why he was unable to stand still was the red light emerging from Sano’s body.
…Leon didn’t know whether it was light, but he could only call it light.
Like smoke but with substance.
After the trance, the red light solidified, and Leon finally saw clearly. Behind Sano were nine huge tails swaying crazily in mid-air. The top of his head looked like a ferocious face of a fox, looking down and roaring at him.
…Well, it turns out that what is heard is not just the sound of wind, but also roaring.
Leon’s eyes were dull, and his brain was completely shut down.
Perhaps facing this development, Leon should feel scared and panicked, but as far as the current facts are concerned, his mind is completely blank.
If I have to say it, there are only two words.
monster.
Under the huge mental shock, Leon, who was best at scaring people as a hypnotist, rolled his eyes and fainted on the spot.
This startled Kuroba Kaito, who even though he could only see Sano’s back, still vaguely sensed something was wrong after his aura attribute improved.
…How come a good person suddenly collapses?
