Chapter 117 was acquired
"Strange, the footprints are gone." Yuan Tai said doubtfully: "Could Godzilla have flown away?"

"Let's not talk about it first. The Godzilla in front of you is played by a human." Ze Yu said with a smile: "Even if it is the Godzilla in the original book, it can't fly, right?"

“Haha…” Yuan Tai scratched his head in embarrassment.

Conan noticed something unusual, walked to the edge of the balcony, grabbed the wall with both hands, and looked up.

I saw that Godzilla's suit had fallen downstairs, with flames still burning on his body, and it had been burned and deformed.

"Gomera fell downstairs? And it's on fire?" Conan reacted and immediately rushed downstairs, thinking to himself: "Did he commit suicide out of fear of the crime after committing the crime?"

Soon, Conan arrived at the scene, and when he saw Godzilla, his eyes widened.

It turned out that the Godzilla on fire was just an empty suit with no one inside.

This is just an empty shell to attract other people's attention. The real murderer has escaped long ago.

"Damn it, where have you been?"

Conan clenched his fists.

…………

Half an hour later...

Inspector Megure, an old friend of the Boy Detectives, finally appears.

"Excuse me, everyone, where were you when the murder happened?" Inspector Megure conducted the routine investigation.

"At that time, I was in a room on the first floor." Director Mikami said while wiping the cold sweat from his forehead.

Conan came closer and asked curiously, "Uncle Director, you are sweating a lot."

"Yeah, I sweat easily normally." Director Mikami forced a smile and replied.

Next, Inspector Megure investigated other people.

Ze Yu stood quietly by the side, without saying a word, but silently picked up his mobile phone and sent a text message.

After a while, Director Mikami's cell phone suddenly rang. He saw Inspector Megure looking at him, smiled apologetically, and then answered the call.

"It's me, Mikami." Director Mikami answered the phone, his expression changing from calm at the beginning to one of surprise.

"What? You mean..."

"Okay! I understand!"

After the call was hung up, Director Mikami's face was full of joy. Even though Producer Kamei had just died, he couldn't contain his joy.

Officer Megure asked somewhat unhappily, "Director Mikami, what's wrong?"

Someone just died over here, and you're smiling so happily over there. It seems a little inappropriate no matter how you look at it, doesn't it?

"I'm sorry, officer, I know this is a little bit unpleasant, but I'm really happy right now," Director Mikami explained.

Upon hearing this, Inspector Megure's expression became even uglier.

What on earth happened to make Director Mikami so happy that he couldn't control his emotions even when someone had just died?

"Matsui, Tomomi, and everyone else, we have hope!" Director Mikami announced with joy on his face, "Just now, our Godzilla series was acquired by a large consortium. We have new funds to make movies!"

"What? There is such a thing!"

Everyone showed a surprised expression.

As for the deceased producer Kamei?

who cares.

Anyway, everyone hates him, and this has been going on for a long time.

"Director, are you telling the truth?" Matsui, who was covering his legs, widened his eyes and said in shock, "Can we make a new movie again?"

Upon hearing the news, Matsui was the most excited among all the people present.

“That’s right!” Director Mikami laughed so hard that his beard stood up, not caring at all about producer Kamei who had just died.

"I………"

After hearing the director's affirmative words, Matsui's expression changed several times and became very exciting, as if a seasoning had been spilled.

A trace of surprise, confusion, panic, and regret flashed across his face...

His expression was very complicated. "Everyone, I confess." Matsui sighed softly, his face full of helplessness and regret.

"what?"

Everyone looked over and looked at him in confusion.

"I killed producer Kamei," Matsui explained with relief, "because he wanted to stop filming the Godzilla series, so I killed him."

“But I didn’t expect that our series would be acquired by someone else and we would be able to make new movies in the future.”

"I really regret it!"

Matsui shook his head regretfully.

If he had known that Godzilla's journey was not over yet and that he could continue to make new movies, he would never have done this.

This is self-destructive!

"Matsui..."

Seeing that Matsui admitted his behavior, Director Mikami and other crew members showed expressions of pity.

In fact, they had already guessed that Matsui was the murderer who killed producer Kamei.

However, instead of exposing the other party, they covered up for him and tried to get away with it.

But who would have thought that after learning that the "Godzilla" film series had been acquired, Matsui actually confessed it himself?

Now, no one can protect him.

Conan was speechless.

The murderer confessed himself, so is there still room for him as a detective?
This was the first time in all the years he had been a detective that a murderer had confessed.

"Okay, take him away!" Inspector Megure waved his hand, his face looking a little strange.

In his long career as a policeman, he had rarely come across a situation like the murderer confessing himself.

What happens next is simple.

Matsui was taken away by the police. Before leaving, he said hello to the crew.

"Everyone, please keep the position of Godzilla's suit actor for me!"

After that, the police and Matsui left.

Everyone in the crew couldn't help feeling a little depressed when their long-time friend was taken away. The previous surprise was also poured with a bucket of cold water and was extinguished in an instant.

Dr. Agasa looked at Ze Yu and the other six and said helplessly: "Children, it seems that we can only go back."

"Let's go then."

Everyone left the crew somewhat bored and returned to Dr. Agasa's Beetle.

In the car, Conan pulled Ze Yu and whispered, "Xiao Yu, about the acquisition of the Godzilla series of movies..."

"I bought it." Ze Yu admitted the fact without hesitation: "The consortium that bought it is an asset under my control. This should be considered as helping others, right? Anyway, I don't need this little money."

"Xiao Yu, you are worthy of being me." Conan said faintly, feeling a little emotional in his heart.

Sure enough, having money is good, and it can even allow the murderer to confess everything on his own choice.

From this perspective, perhaps, rich people are the natural enemies of detectives like these?

…………

evening.

Maori Detective Agency.

"Meow~"

The ragdoll orange cat lay leisurely on the table, licking its paws and cleaning its hair.

She is so elegant that she looks like a noble.

Suddenly, Conan's voice rang out.

"Sister Xiaolan, I'm back!"
