Chapter 478 The truth of the three questions and the commission entrusted to Koshimizu Nanatsuki

Hattori Heiji looked a little unhappy: "You found out but didn't say anything? Are you kidding me? Did he just watch the maid suffer an injustice?"

Yuya stroked his chin and said, "I can reasonably speculate that the detective must have discovered the problem with the screws, but he was worried that being exposed by the media would affect his reputation, so he didn't stand up and admit his mistake until the end."

Conan stroked his chin and said, "Since this detective was able to get the police to help conceal his identity, it means that he has a good relationship with the police and is deeply trusted by the police, otherwise they would not agree to such a thing."

Just like Inspector Megure has been helping to conceal the fact that he helped solve the case, and the reason why Inspector Megure is willing to do this is because his reasoning and case-solving abilities have been trusted and recognized by Inspector Megure, and they have a very good relationship.

"No," Yuya suddenly denied, "It seems that the police don't trust this detective 100% either."

"What do you mean?"

Yuya pointed to the bottom of the file and said, "Look here. This contains some information about this high school student detective."

Shi Jinjun's face suddenly changed. What happened? Didn't he ask the police to conceal his name? How come there is still a record?

"Hmm?" Conan and the other two looked at each other and hurried over.

This is a police interrogation transcript, and it is the maid’s original words.

"I really didn't kill the lady. Why don't you believe me, but believe that weird-speaking detective?"

"I see," Hakuba suddenly realized, "Is this why the three of us were invited here? Because that high school detective speaks strangely?"

Hattori Heiji said in a deep voice: "In this case, it is almost certain that the high school student detective is among the three of us?"

Although the words were asked in the form of a question, the tone was very affirmative, and his eyes swept over Tokitsu Junya.

First of all, the suspect candidates Yuya Kamiya and Nanatsuki Koshimizu were ruled out.

At the same time, he knew very well that he was not the detective, and with Hakuba's cocky, pretentious character, if he really discovered that his reasoning was wrong, he would not bother to hide it.

Even as a suspect, he was the one who was most proactive in helping with the analysis.

In this case, the only person who is most suspicious is Tokatsu Junya who has remained silent, right?

The others also thought of this and looked at Tokatsu Junya suspiciously.

Shi Jinjunya's back was covered with cold sweat and he laughed dryly: "Why are you all looking at me?"

Yuya smiled faintly: "Northern representative classmate, you are all smart people. At this point, who is the high school detective? Do I need to name him?"

Tokatsu Junya fell silent, his face looking extremely ugly.

Yuya continued: "I still remember that when I was looking for your answer, you said this..."

Tokatsu Junya thought of something and his expression suddenly changed.

"You have encountered similar incidents by chance. Then I would like to ask, where, when, and what incident did you encounter?" Yuya narrowed his eyes and looked at Tokatsu Junya sharply.

"Can you tell me about it? I'm very curious."

Where could Shi Jinjunya find such an event in such a hurry? His face suddenly turned extremely pale, he staggered back a few steps, and suddenly fell to the ground.

Seeing this scene, everyone suddenly confirmed their guess that the high school detective whose wrong reasoning led to the maid's suicide was Tokitsu Junya!

Hattori Heiji looked at him with disdain: "As a detective, you actually handed over the wrong reasoning as the truth, and caused an innocent person to commit suicide. You are the one..."

"He's not fit to be a detective!"

"I, I didn't want to do that either!" Tokatsu Junya covered his face and cried bitterly, "I was just worried that if I told others about it, it would affect my reputation as a detective. I thought the problem with the screws was obvious and the police should be able to see it, but who knew..."

Nanatsuki Koshimizu was extremely angry, and sparks were about to burst out of her eyes: "Who knew that the maid couldn't bear the pressure and committed suicide? Is that what you want to say?"

Tokitsu Junya looked up at Koshimizu Nanatsuki blankly, not understanding why she was so excited.

Nanatsuki Koshimizu looked cold and said in a cold tone: "A month before you arrived at the villa, I had already investigated the scene and found no signs of homicide on that lady. She undoubtedly committed suicide!"

"You?!" Tokatsu Junya's pupils trembled. Had he already investigated this person before he went there?

Bai Ma Detective was a little surprised: "You investigated it a month ago? Did you miss it..."

"How is that possible! I'm not really a rookie detective!" Nanatsuki Koshimizu said angrily, pointing a finger at Hiroo Tsuchio, "It's all because of this man. After I left the villa, he pretended to be a cleaner and disguised the window like that. I guess it was to make it easier for him to break in and steal later."

“That’s why I didn’t know about this.”

Everyone couldn't help but look at Chuiwei Guangsheng. The other party had an extremely ugly face, his body was shaking, and cold sweat kept flowing down from his forehead.

"Yes, I'm sorry!" Hiroo Kuwei cried and apologized, "I didn't know this would happen!"

Koshimizu Nanatsuki sneered.

Conan and the other two's eyes flickered, and as they thought about this strange Detective Koshien Competition, they suddenly understood something.

Hattori Heiji asked tentatively: "Could it be that the Detective Koshien this time is you..."

Since Tokatsu Junya's identity has been exposed, Koshimizu Nanatsuki feels that there is no need for him to continue acting. He nodded and said, "Yes, I invited you here under the name of Nichimi TV."

Nanatsuki Koshimizu looked at Yuya, whose expression remained unchanged, and chuckled, "Kamiya-san doesn't seem surprised at all?"

Yuya spread his hands: "Actually, I just figured it out. Hakuba, Hattori, and Tokatsu were invited as suspects, so why are you here if you are not a suspect?"

"If you think about it for a moment, you will understand. The person behind this Detective Koshien event must be you."

Nanatsuki Koshimizu nodded to indicate that it was correct: "As expected, you are Kamiya Yuuya, the most famous high school detective in Neon. I can't hide anything from you."

Yuya said modestly, "I'm not the most famous person in Neon, but at least most people in Tokyo have heard of my name."

Nanatsuki Koshimizu was speechless for a moment, then continued, "But I am a little surprised. Although I sent you an invitation, I didn't expect you to actually come. I thought a detective like you wouldn't be interested in this kind of thing."

Yuya smiled and said, "I'm not interested in the show itself, but I'm a little interested in being able to compete with other detectives."

Hattori Heiji stroked his chin and said, "Now we have solved the mystery of who the high school student detective was and the origin of the problem. The only thing left is why the young lady committed suicide."

Bai Ba Tan said thoughtfully: "Since everyone here has a reason to be here, then I boldly guess that Mr. Kotani Lianzo, you should know the reason why the young lady committed suicide, right?"

Koshimizu Nanatsuki sneered, "Of course he knows. He was the butler there at the time!"

Everyone showed an expression of "as expected".

"Huh?" Hattori Heiji stretched out his tone and looked at Kotani Renzo meaningfully.

Kotani Renzo still had his eyes narrowed, but his face was full of pain.

"Yes, I do know that the young lady has been taking medication for depression for a long time. She has been prone to abuse more than once because of her serious condition. No one expected that she would hang herself that time..."

"The young lady is already dead. In order to protect her last remaining reputation in this world, I can't tell you the reason why she committed suicide. Although it would be unfair to the maid, I thought that the truth would be revealed after investigation. But who could have thought..."

Youye sneered, "Your young lady has already had a precedent. Have you ever thought about what kind of pressure an ordinary girl has to endure after being wrongly accused or murdered? Will she become like your young lady? Have you ever thought about it?"

Nanatsuki Koshimizu's face was filled with sorrow: "She came to me for help, saying that a high school detective who spoke strangely was wrongly accusing her, but when I arrived, she couldn't bear the pressure and committed suicide. If I had arrived earlier..."

Kotani Lianzo cried bitterly and sobbed, "I'm sorry, I'm so sorry!"

Hiroo Tsuchiya next to him also kept apologizing.

Tokatsu Junya sat on the ground in a daze, staring at the ceiling with lifeless eyes.

Koshimizu Nanatsuki laughed sadly: "It's too late. The person is already dead. What's the point of saying sorry now?"

Yuya said in a deep voice: "The sins committed by people will not disappear just because of a sorry, nor will they disappear just because of pretending to forget.

Have you three ever felt guilty about this matter in the past six months? Have you ever been unable to sleep at night because of this matter?

Have you ever heard a girl pleading miserably, asking you to tell us the truth you know instead of wrongly accusing her? "

Tokitsu Junya, Tsuchio Hiroo, and Kotani Renzo were silent in silence, or cried bitterly.

But others present did not sympathize with them.

Everyone has to pay the price for what they do, maybe not now, but one day in the future.

···

Yuya called the police using a satellite phone and took the three people back for investigation.

As for what kind of punishment they will receive, it may be difficult to define legally, but You can also say with certainty that he has countless ways to make their lives worse than death.

Sometimes it is better to die than to live.

Koshimizu Nanatsuki stood at the bow, staring blankly at the boat next door - the three people were being held on it.

Yuya came over and said casually, "It's over now and we can move on. As for these three people, they will live in pain for the rest of their lives."

"Will it be like this?" Nanatsuki Koshimizu looked puzzled. "How many people will always remember the mistakes they made? They will forget about it after a while, and the law won't be able to convict them of much crime, right?"

"The law won't." Yuya said with a double meaning.

Nanatsuki Koshimizu looked at Yuya in surprise: "Hey, don't be impulsive, I have given up the idea of ​​killing for revenge..."

"Don't worry, I won't do such a loss-making thing." Youye smiled, "At least I can guarantee that their future life will not be too happy."

“Take Tokatsu Junya for example. The media will not let go of this kind of news that can be used as a big revelation. His detective career, no, his life may be over.

Because of this incident, his personal credibility will be questioned. How many people will trust him in the future? Because one's own selfish desires can kill others, so who can guarantee that this person will happen to him one day?

He will live his whole life under the gossip and contempt of others."

Koshimizu Nanatsuki nodded silently.

"As for the other two, they are so old now. The guilt alone is enough to make them feel guilty and miserable for the rest of their lives. Even if they forget, there will be people who will help remind them, so that they will not have the chance to forget the sins they have committed."

"Sometimes, it is better to make a person live a life worse than death than to kill him."

Nanatsuki Koshimizu suddenly felt a chill. She looked at Yuya with her pupils slightly shrunken, somewhat unable to believe that such words would come out of the mouth of a famous detective.

Youye smiled and said, "I just want to tell you that there is no need to sacrifice your bright future for a few rotten people. You are still young."

Koshimizu Nanatsuki was stunned for a moment, with a strange expression on his face: "You sound like an old man when you talk?"

"Ah?" Youye's eyes widened. "Hey, I'm just trying to enlighten you with good intentions. Why are you saying that to me?"

Nanatsuki Koshimizu pursed her lips, but finally couldn't help bursting out laughing.

After a while, she wiped the tears from her eyes and said softly, "If this is the case, Chanel's spirit in heaven should be relieved, right?"

Chanel is her best friend, the maid.

Youye nodded and said confidently, "I definitely will."

Koshimizu Nanatsuki was silent for a while, and suddenly said: "You helped me so much, I don't know how to repay you..."

Youye quickly said, "I have a girlfriend, so there's no need for me to pledge myself to her."

Nanatsuki Koshimizu was stunned for a moment, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, and said directly and ruthlessly: "Sorry, you may have thought too much. Although you are indeed quite handsome, you are not my type."

Now it was Youya's turn to feel embarrassed. He pretended to cough and said, "Come to think of it, there is one thing I don't quite have time to do. If that's okay..."

Koshimizu Nanatsuki said without hesitation: "Then leave it to me."

Youya was a little surprised: "You agreed without asking anything?"

Nanatsuki Koshimizu smiled slightly: "I have heard a lot of legends about you before, and I have experienced it myself this time, so I still trust you very much. You will not let me do anything illegal."

"Of course not," Youya smiled, "I want you to help investigate someone."

Yuya pulled a photo out of his pocket and handed it over.

Koshimizu Nanatsuki took it and took a look, a little surprised: "Isn't this the Mizunashi Rena?"

"You know her?"

Nanatsuki Koshimizu nodded: "I've seen the news she hosted. But I heard that she recently took sick leave due to health reasons. What's the matter? Did she have an accident?"

Yuya nodded and shook his head: "I saw her before she asked for leave, and at that time she didn't look sick enough to take a long leave, so I think she might have encountered something."

Nanatsuki Koshimizu looked at the photo and suddenly found something wrong: "The person in the photo does look a lot like Rena Mizunoshi, but she looks a lot younger? She looks about the same age as me."

Yuya nodded. "Yes, this is a photo from ten years ago that I accidentally found on the Internet, but the post was deleted almost immediately and the account that posted it was also banned. I was a little suspicious so I wanted to investigate."

Koshimizu Nanatsuki thought for a moment, "It's indeed a little suspicious."

"So, what you want me to do is to investigate why Mizunashi Reina disappeared despite appearing to be on sick leave?"

Yuya shook his head: "No, I will investigate this matter myself. What I want you to check is the life trajectory of Mizunashi Rena in Osaka ten years ago."

"Ten years ago?" Nanatsuki Koshimizu was a little confused, but she didn't ask much. Yuya had helped her so much, it was just investigating something and it wasn't a big deal.

"Also, you must pay attention to your own safety and concealment when investigating. I'm worried that she may have encountered something serious that needs to be hidden, and may be involved in some not-so-good background forces."

Nanatsuki Koshimizu smiled faintly: "Although I can't compare to you, I am also a high school detective after all."

Yuya smiled slightly, "Is someone who has already graduated from high school still considered a high school detective?"

Koshimizu Nanatsuki stuck out her tongue: "As expected, you found out."

Yuya nodded. "I noticed by chance that you have pierced ears. You said your high school is very strict and obviously would not allow you to pierce your ears, so I assume you have already graduated from high school."

Koshimizu Nanatsuki said with emotion: "As expected of you. Don't worry, I will be careful to hide myself so that no one will notice me."

"I believe in your ability. By the way," Youya took out another photo, "and investigate this person as well."

"This is..." Nanatsuki Koshimizu looked at the photo in surprise, "Is this a boy? Why does he look so much like Rena Mizunashi?"

Yuya nodded slightly: "Yes, his name is Hondou Eisuke."
