Chapter 307 Ran Mouri, heartbroken in love
No one noticed that after the three cars carrying everyone away, a figure quietly appeared in the villa, picked up the still unconscious Uchida Asami who had been placed on the floor, and left.
The figure was none other than Akutagawa Hiko. As for why he took Uchida Asami away, it was because this girl had been given sleeping pills, and the villa was about to be engulfed in flames.
I don't know whether to call Sawai Manabu a madman or a complete idiot.
He actually came up with the idea of starting a fire with a fax machine and birthday cake candles, then rushing into the fire to rescue people, creating a hero-saves-the-damsel-in-distress scenario to make Uchida Asami, who had originally rejected his confession, accept his idea.
Murder and arson are often discussed together as two heinous crimes. Arson has always been a serious crime, both in ancient and modern times, and in all cultures.
The most important thing is that when this person saw that the fire was too big, he actually chickened out.
Did he not anticipate this situation when he set the fire? Even if he could perfectly control the timing, could he manage all the unexpected events and eliminate all unplanned factors?
He couldn't, and didn't even leave any safeguards, and in the end, he didn't dare admit his crimes at all, attempting to shift all the blame onto Uchida Asami, who had suffered an undeserved misfortune.
He probably originally thought that even if he couldn't successfully save the damsel in distress, it wouldn't matter if Uchida Asami died at the fire scene; it would be a good punishment for her rejecting him, this playboy.
In comparison, Shinichi Kudo is really quite lucky.
Despite being the subject of rumors, Asami Uchida only spoke about it within a small circle of people like them.
However, this is not a very good thing to do, as it is a shame to try to save face by bringing up the story of Shinichi Kudo confessing his love to her back then.
Simply stopping the fire isn't impossible, but if that were the case, who knows what other terrible ideas Sawai Manabu would come up with to try and seduce Uchida Asami.
As for the villa owner's losses, the arsonist, Sawai Manabu, will certainly have to bear the consequences.
During the karaoke session, Shibahisa Noguchi passionately sang his own opening and ending theme songs from "Detective Conan".
These songs are quite famous around the world and are very popular, to the point that they have become almost a must-sing karaoke song in Japan.
Hayasaka Tomoko, holding the song list, smiled at Conan, who was sitting obediently to her side but whose face was full of eagerness, and said, "How about it, little brother, do you want to sing a duet with your big sister later?"
-
Akutagawa Hiko greatly admired the courage of the woman in red. If she had actually stood that close to listen to Conan sing, he suspected that she would have become the first person Conan had personally killed.
Of course, this is just an exaggeration.
"No need, Sister Tomoko, I'll sing by myself in a bit."
Akutagawa pulled Conan aside and gave him an extra instruction, which also served as a reminder to the others: "When you go up to sing later, remember to remind us."
Conan gave an OK sign.
Akutagawa felt he had done everything he could, and whether others noticed it or not was none of his business; it was his destiny to be pierced by Conan's demonic voice.
When Sonoko got into a good time, she didn't forget her best friend Ran Mouri. In fact, she had noticed that Ran Mouri's mood had been a bit off ever since she made that lemon pie.
As for why, it's because of Shinichi Kudo, of course.
After all, apart from her family, no one else could stir up her emotions like that.
Sonoko Suzuki wrapped her arms around Ran Mouri from behind, who was looking down, and asked knowingly, "What's wrong, Ran? You seem a little unhappy."
Xiaolan quickly denied it: "No, I'm not upset, really."
How could Sonoko possibly believe that? She'd rather believe she was Oda Nobunaga than believe that.
"Xiaolan, do you know that Ayan once said that if someone lies, they will repeat the same thing over and over again, and right now your smile is even uglier than your crying face?"
Upon hearing this, Xiaolan couldn't help but touch her face.
Sonoko Suzuki adopted the air of a mystery queen, releasing Ran and plopping down next to her: "Let me, Suzuki, the great detective, the mystery queen, Sonoko, guess what you're thinking!"
Ran was initially amused by the long name Sonoko gave her, but gradually fell silent after Sonoko's analysis.
"She's beautiful, talented, and skilled in both literature and martial arts. Not only is she gentle and considerate, making her well-liked by everyone, but she also excels at everything she does, achieving extraordinary success. She's practically the most perfect woman in the world, isn't she?"
Xiaolan cried out, "Sonoko—!"
Sonoko instantly switched to her most genuine, playful demeanor: "You're thinking about Mami-senpai, aren't you? Don't deny it, it's written all over your face, like you're saying I'm no match for her, and it's understandable that Shinichi would like someone else."
Sonoko patted the girl, who seemed to have suffered a major setback in love, on the shoulder and comforted her, "Competing with someone like that, even I, Sonoko-sama, would feel hopeless."
"But what does it matter? She's already dumped Shinichi, hasn't she? And you have the advantage of being Shinichi's childhood friend. Shinichi will never escape your grasp."
Ran Mouri wasn't actually disappointed because she wasn't as good as others—at least that wasn't the main reason—but rather because she didn't seem to understand that reasoning maniac as well as she had imagined.
"Sonoko, did you know that Shinichi's favorite food is lemon pie? Mami-senpai told me that, and I just found out too—"
Xiaolan's voice was almost tearful, as if she was about to withdraw from the relationship.
"How could I possibly beat Mami-senpai? She knows Shinichi far better than I do, much better."
Conan was almost in tears. He, the famous detective Shinichi Kudo, had never shed a tear except when he acted like a child, throwing a tantrum and crying loudly. He was really worried to death.
Even if Kara OK's voice was noisy, it couldn't stop his senses from being much sharper than before, not to mention that he was always concerned about Xiao Lan's situation.
Sonoko was at a loss for what to do. After all, as her childhood friend, she didn't know as much as Mami, which was really inappropriate.
However, she will definitely stand firmly on the side of her best friend Ran Mouri.
"Xiaolan, you have your own strengths too, so don't underestimate yourself."
After Conan made a series of humiliating promises, Akutagawa Hiko stood up with satisfaction, ready to say something good about Kudo Shinichi.
"So, Ran, do you really think Shinichi really likes lemon pie that much? I've talked to Shinichi about desserts, and he's never shown any preference for lemon pie."
