In the world of Detective Conan, the female characters are all acting strangely!

"Jingle Bell--"

Xia Ye took out her phone; it was Xiao Lan calling.

"Xiaolan?"

"Xia Ye, do you know?"

Xiao Lan's voice sounded somewhat excited.

Spider-Man has appeared!

"Okay, I understand~" Xia Ye smiled and said, "The child was rescued, and the outcome was good~"

"Hmm~" Xiaolan changed the subject, "Xia Ye, have you gone home?"

"No~"

Xia Ye glanced at the two sisters who were seriously discussing clothing styles not far away.

"I brought Ai and Shiho to buy clothes. Shiho asked them to come with me in such a rush that they didn't bring any clothes!"

Xiao Lan's pretty face had a strange expression.

This man was clearly lying to her, but she wasn't angry at all; in fact, she felt a little apologetic towards him.

But there's nothing I can do about it. That wretched logbook won't let me tell him anything!

Forget it, I'll treat him better in the future as compensation!

Ai and the others probably think the same way...

"Hmm~"

"What about you guys?" Xia Ye asked, "Are you planning to go home?"

"no!"

Xiaolan showed no abnormality:

"My dad, Conan, and I are going to Yoko's apartment with her. Dad said he needs to investigate the stalker thing."

"Go to Yoko Okino's apartment?" Natsume asked, sounding somewhat surprised.

Inside the moving vehicle.

Ran and Yoko exchanged a glance and frowned slightly. Natsume's reaction must mean something was going on, and something must have happened at Yoko's apartment!

"What's wrong, Xia Ye?"

"No, nothing~"

Xia Ye's voice returned to normal.

"I'm just envious of Ran and you guys getting to visit Yoko Okino's house~"

"Mr. Natsume, you can come play with Ran next time~" Yoko Okino leaned close to Ran's phone and said with a smile, "Remember to bring Ai and Ai too, I really like them~"

"I'll take them there when I have time~"

Although Natsume felt that Yoko Okino was being a little too enthusiastic, she was, after all, a vibrant idol, so a little enthusiasm wasn't a bad thing, and besides, maybe she was just being polite.

"Xia Ye, we're almost there. Let's talk again next time~"

"Okay, bye~"

Xiaolan put down the phone and opened her journal.

Xiaolan: Now we'll just have to wait and see if Xiaye will write a diary entry~

Yoko: Yeah, I'm feeling a little nervous right now!

Ai: My sister and I haven't been visiting him lately, and as usual, he'll probably at least say something to complain about it.

Xiaolan: Okay, please~

.........

On the sofa in the rest area.

Xia Ye frowned slightly and summoned the logbook.

[I can't believe it's today!]

When Yoko Okino said she'd treat me to dinner, I thought it was over, but I didn't expect Uncle Mori to still go to the apartment with her to investigate!

So, that thing should have happened—no, looking at the time, it should have already happened.

[Yoko Okino's ex-boyfriend committed suicide in her apartment living room, intending to frame her. Tsk, what a pathetic yet hateful guy!]

Yoko Okino and her group's car had already stopped in the apartment parking lot.

"Huh? Ran and Yoko, what's wrong with you two?"

Seeing that his daughter and Yoko Okino looked a little strange, Kogoro Mouri asked them a question.

"Nothing~"

Xiaolan waved her hand, took a deep breath, and her complexion improved considerably.

"Yoko and I are just a little carsick~"

"I remember you don't get carsick~"

Kogoro Mouri muttered something to himself, but didn't pay much attention.

"Miss Yoko's apartment is in this building, let's go up quickly!"

Manager Sakae Yamagishi, Kogoro Mouri, and Conan walked ahead.

Yoko Okino double-checked the information in the log.

Could it be that when I open the door in a moment, I'll really see a corpse right there?

Or is it my ex-boyfriend's?

He's even planning to frame me for murder?

Chapter Sixty-Five: The Famous Detective Sato Miwako

Speaking of this case, I remember the methods used were rather crude.

Place a block of ice on the ground, stick a knife into the ice, then jump off the chair and let the knife pierce your own back.

[Turn the air conditioner up beforehand to melt the ice quickly—and incidentally, to interfere with the police's determination of the time of death.]

[Hold a strand of Yoko Okino's hair in your hand, pretending it was accidentally pulled from her head during the attack.]

That's it!

【……】

[Tsk, Aoyama-sensei didn't have much experience when he first started drawing manga~]

This disguise is full of flaws; a reliable forensic doctor could spot something amiss at a glance!

However, for the Metropolitan Police Department officers, this was practically conclusive evidence. If Conan hadn't been there, Yoko Okino would probably have been taken away by them.

As for Yuko Ikezawa, she's simply resentful because Yoko Okino stole her lead role in a TV drama. She wanted to go to Okino's house to find some dirt on her, and it has nothing to do with the case.

At this moment.

Yoko Okino and her group had already taken the elevator to the apartment entrance.

Yoko Okino and Ran felt a little conflicted.

We haven't even entered the door yet, and Xia Ye has already spoiled the whole case for us.

We're about to enter the room. If we actually see a corpse, what expression should we make?

at the same time.

Metropolitan Police Department Headquarters.

The First Division forcibly committed the crime in the office of the Third Department.

"Sato, aren't you going home yet?"

Inspector Megure approached Miwako Sato's desk, and seeing that she showed no sign of leaving, asked in confusion:

"Didn't I just see you packing your things?"

"Inspector Megure, I have a few more documents I'd like to look at. I'll be back in a bit."

Sato Miwako casually pulled out a file, looking somewhat tired, but a strong fighting spirit inexplicably ignited in her pale purple eyes.

"No cases today, no need to add any... Never mind!"

Inspector Megure waved his hand and stopped trying to persuade her. It was a good thing that his subordinates were so enthusiastic. He would just send her home after she finished reading these documents. It wouldn't tire her out!

When Inspector Megure returned to his desk.

Sato Miwako frowned slightly as she looked at the open logbook in front of her.

Knowing that a murder has occurred but being unable to tell anyone and having to wait for the police to be called is truly agonizing.

Furthermore, Natsume's words in her diary clearly implied that the Metropolitan Police Department was incompetent.

How could I possibly stand for this! I absolutely had to go and see for myself!

.....

Yoko Okino took out her key and opened the apartment door.

Despite being mentally prepared.

The sight of the corpse lying face down on the living room floor not far from the entrance, its body now a pool of blood beneath it, still made her let out a short scream.

Kogoro Mouri and Conan rushed into the room at the same time and began to examine the body.

"It's beyond saving!"

Kogoro Mouri, with a serious expression, waved to Ran and ordered, "Ran, report quickly—how did you get here so fast?"

"Inspector Megure, a murder has occurred here!"

Upon seeing the body, Ran immediately picked up her phone. Instead of dialing the general emergency number, she dialed Inspector Megure's familiar number.

Inspector Megure arrived quickly.

Beside her was the dashing and beautiful policewoman, Sato Miwako.

Sato Miwako glanced at Ran and Okino Yoko, her eyes showing some hesitation.

She hadn't originally planned to reveal her identity to other log holders, but since it concerned the Metropolitan Police Department's reputation, she couldn't care less.

After making up my mind.

Miwako Sato was on fire on the spot.

The log does not allow the holder to disclose any information, but if you investigate it yourself based on the information in the log, there will be no problem at all!

And so, before Conan even took action, all sorts of evidence had already been found by Miwako Sato and her colleagues from the forensic department, including the earring that Tomoko Ikezawa had left at the scene.

As a matter of routine, Tomoko Ikezawa was also called in for questioning.

This woman was beautiful and sexy, with a hot figure and gorgeous clothes, but her personality wasn't very good. As soon as she entered, she made a few sarcastic remarks to Yoko Okino.

Yoko Okino, being good-natured, couldn't be bothered with her at all; she was currently discussing serious matters with Ran.

Yoko: Ran, did you notice?

Xiaolan: I can tell, they're one of us!

Yoko: This policewoman didn't hesitate to look for evidence; she must have read Natsume's diary.

Ran: Hmph, Officer Sato is beautiful, has a great figure, and has a professional advantage, so it's normal for her to have Natsume's diary~

Yoko: Wait a minute, Ran, look at Tomoko Ikezawa. Isn't she pretty? Isn't she sexy? Plus, she has the added advantage of being a celebrity. As far as I know, she's also very virtuous. She doesn't even have a diary, does she?

Xiaolan: Miss Yangzi, what do you mean?

Yoko: I think the log holder isn't a pretty and important female character, but rather the female character that Natsume likes!

Xiaolan: It's just that the female characters he likes happen to be very beautiful, right?

Yoko: Although it may sound immodest to say this, that's probably the truth!
