Chapter 517 Where is Conan?
"You suspect me of being the murderer, but where is the evidence? Speculation without evidence is just empty talk." Tanaka said this in an attempt to clear himself of suspicion.

She looked at the snow beside her and said, "Look, there are only Keshu's footprints on the snow. Before he came, there were no traces around the body."

"If I was the murderer, what did I do?"

"This is simply an impossible crime!"

After the words fell, everyone fell silent.

Because what Tanaka said made a lot of sense, no one could imagine how the murderer could have placed the body on the snow without leaving any trace.

Even Shinichi couldn't think of an answer for the time being and began to have a headache.

At this moment, Ze Yu raised his little hand and said, "I think we can do this by flying low with a hang glider."

"So..." He smiled sweetly and said, "The murderer is Kaito Kidd."

Hearing this, a big question mark popped up on the head of Doi Takeshu who was standing nearby.

"...?"

He looked at Ze Yu with a confused look on his face.

No way? Xiaoyu, how dare you lie to me like this in front of me?
On the side, Sonoko, who knew that Doi Takeshu was the Kaito Kid, almost laughed out loud.

But she soon realized that she had lost her composure, so she put on a serious face and said righteously: "Xiao Yu, this is impossible. Master Kaito Kidd is an elegant magician. How could he kill someone?"

Ze Yu shrugged his shoulders and said nothing.

"Xiao Yu is just joking, don't take it seriously." Haibara Ai stepped out to smooth things over.

"Okay, no more joking." Ze Yu looked at Tanaka and said softly, "Sister Tanaka, you can take the things out of your boots now."

"The stuff in the boots?" Tanaka's pupils shrank, but his expression remained unchanged. He pretended to be stupid and said, "Xiao Yu, what are you talking about?"

"Really? Do I have to say it out loud?" Ze Yu shook his head: "Sister Tanaka, there is a crossbow arrow in your boots, don't you feel uncomfortable?"

Hearing this, Tanaka's face changed drastically.

Noticing the change in Tanaka's expression, everyone looked at her with strange eyes.

"Tanaka, what does the crossbow arrow in the boot mean?" Uncle Yoshinori frowned and spoke seriously.

"Forget it." Tanaka shook his head, gave up resistance, smiled bitterly, and took out a crossbow arrow from his boots.

Her boots were long, thigh-high boots, and it was easy for her to drop a crossbow arrow.

Tanaka threw the crossbow arrow to the ground and looked at everyone helplessly.

"Tanaka, you..." Naoko looked reluctant and said in disbelief, "Did you really kill the director and Hamano?"

Although Naoko didn't quite understand the relationship between this crossbow arrow and Hamano's death, she knew how to read the atmosphere.

There was a crossbow arrow in Tanaka's boots, which was difficult to explain. Coupled with her attitude of giving up resistance at this moment, it was not difficult for Naoko to figure out that Tanaka was the real culprit behind the scenes.

"That's right." Tanaka sighed slowly and acknowledged the fact.

"I killed both of these guys. Who made them so ungrateful?"

"My grandfather made a comeback because of their influence, but his performance failed and he lost his life."

"I am very sad about this accident, but considering that Xishan and his friends didn't know that the 'deceiving boy' they were chatting with was my grandfather, I didn't intend to vent my anger on them."

"But those two guys actually openly mocked my grandfather in the chat room. I couldn't stand it, so I made a plan, joined the chat room with a secondary account, and finally killed them with my own hands."

A trace of loneliness appeared on Tanaka's face.

Seeing Tanaka plead guilty and tell the truth, everyone was silent for a while, feeling helpless.

Xiaolan, who is kind-hearted, wanted to speak to comfort the depressed Tanaka, but when she thought of the two dead people, she hesitated and finally said nothing.

After all, no matter what, Tanaka had killed two people, and if Xiaolan went to comfort her, it would be a bit unfair to the dead Nishiyama and Hamano. So Xiaolan could only be a bystander.

She was in no position to comfort Tanaka.

Ze Yu concluded in a low voice: "Be careful when you are online, don't be mean."

Perhaps, in other worlds, cursing people on the Internet is a normal thing and there is no need to pay any price.

But in the Conan world, if you dare to curse others on the Internet, you must be prepared to die.

Because there are many petty people in the Conan world. If they are scolded, they will rush over through the Internet with knives in hand.

For example, the previous bartender Zemu was a typical example of a person who was petty.

Just because Hiroki laughed at him, he was ready to kill him.

There is no shortage of petty-minded people like bartender Zeki in the Conan world.

So, if you want to live well in the Conan world, you need to be cautious.

Not only do we need to be cautious when surfing the Internet, we also need to be cautious in our daily lives.

Shinichi looked at Tanaka quietly and said, "Even so, this is not a reason for you to take someone else's life without permission."

The great detective's tone was cold and ruthless: "No matter what happens, killing is the lowest form of behavior. What you did was fundamentally wrong."

Hearing this, Tanaka lowered his head in guilt.

But although she felt ashamed, she would not regret it. Even if she had to do it again, she would still do it.

This is the difference between the two concepts.

Shinichi is a very principled person. In his opinion, no matter what happens, killing is not allowed.

He could understand Tanaka's feelings, but he could not accept her actions.

In Tanaka's opinion, those two guys dared to laugh at his grandfather, so he had reason to kill them.

Even if it means sacrificing her own future and prospects, she will not hesitate too much.

Because of the different concepts of the two, the scene gradually fell into silence.

"Shinichi." Xiaolan took a deep breath, looked over, and said seriously: "Come with me, I have something to ask you."

"What's wrong?" Shinichi was a little confused.

Xiaolan walked over with a determined look on her face, grabbed Shinichi's hand, and pulled him towards the villa.

Ze Yu and Huihara Ai stood there, watching the scene quietly.

"Interesting." Ze Yu looked at the two people's backs gradually going away and smiled brightly: "Shinichi is in trouble now~"

.........

Xiaolan took Shinichi into the villa and closed the door.

"Xiaolan, what's wrong?"

For some reason, Shinichi had a bad feeling in his heart and asked a little nervously.

"Shinichi, answer me seriously."

Xiaolan turned around and looked at Kudo Shinichi seriously, and they looked at each other.

"Where's Conan?"
