Chapter 195 The girl’s love
Chapter 196: The girl's love
"what!!!!!!"
I had just reached an agreement with Conan and walked into the main hall when I heard Nana's scream. I was scared. I had just promised Conan that no one would die again. Could I be slapped in the face at the speed of light in an instant?
I hurried over to the crowd and saw Nana still standing there alive. I finally felt relieved. Really, could you please not be so jumpy?
Of course, Nana's scream was not without reason, because after hearing Nana's scream, everyone found the body of Asahi Katsuyoshi, who had already died, in the aquarium opposite. There was also a playing card on his chest with the number nine of spades written on it.
"Sure enough, it was Murakami who did it!" Seeing someone die, Inspector Megure was also a little panicked.
"Chief, the electronic lock is locked and can't be opened at all!" Officer Shiratori said after looking at the electronic lock.
"What?! Then call for help!" Officer Megure took out his cell phone. But he found that the signal was not in the service area at all. Dad also hurriedly picked up the phone, but there was no response at all. I guess the phone line had been cut off long ago.
"Inspector, I'll go check the emergency exit!" Dad ran out in a hurry, because if all the ways to escape were blocked, not only he, but also his daughter would be implicated. But things often don't go as smoothly as he thought. When he came back, the news he brought was that the emergency exit had been sealed with cement. Helplessly, everyone had to sit back at the table and think about how to leave.
"It's all because of you!" The impatient Nishina finally lost control. "Because of you, we, the unrelated people, are also implicated!" Nishina, who was originally afraid of water, was now trapped in this large reservoir. He should be the most afraid here, but because of his words, Nana, the only female target, also complained.
"Yeah! How are you going to be responsible!"
"I..." Dad was speechless. Although the target this time was not Dad, but now everyone has already thought so, I have nothing to say, and I don't want to defend myself. Anyway, the next target is Nana, I just need to find something to hold against Sawaki.
"Nana, if Murakami's killing order doesn't change, then you should be the next one, right? Nana!" Shishido was not too worried, but said calmly to Nana Oyamauchi.
"What a disgusting teacher. Why would I be targeted by a stranger like that?" Nana said dissatisfiedly.
"But aren't you a little concerned?" Conan asked. "You seemed to have asked about Murakami just now?"
"I, I already said that has nothing to do with this matter." Nana seemed to want to hide something.
"Whether it is related or not, let us judge it. Please tell us, Miss Koyamauchi." Officer Megure said seriously. Facing the stern gaze of the police, Nana finally weakened and spoke slowly.
"Three months ago... I was distracted by a phone call and almost ran a red light. I stepped on the brakes immediately, but the car crossed the red light line due to inertia. As a result, a motorcyclist overturned his car because he tried to avoid it. Although I didn't hit him, I ran away because I was scared."
"What kind of car? An off-road motorcycle?" Conan asked.
"No, it's just an ordinary motorcycle." Nana shook her head.
"Officer, it seems that this matter has nothing to do with the current incident. It is better for us to find a way out as soon as possible." After hearing Nana's words, the father gave up further questioning and turned his thoughts elsewhere.
"Is it really irrelevant?" Conan said to himself. Then he left his seat, went to a deserted place under the pretext of going to the toilet, and tore open the envelope of information I gave him. Soon, he understood the whole story and the real purpose of the criminal.
"I never thought that there was such a trivial reason behind this incident." Conan said coldly. "Tsk... I really can't accept losing the bet because of such a case!"

On the other side, my father, Inspector Megure, and all the men present went to find a way out. Only Xiaolan and I were left here, as well as the next target, Nana. Although she was nervous, Nana was still sitting here honestly. After all, the next target was herself. If she didn't obey the officer's orders and ran around, she might really die.
On the other side, Conan also returned to the table we just sat at. After all, after reading the information, Conan was not in a good mood at this time.
"Xun, what are you going to do?" Conan came to my side and asked me.
"Now that Sawaki has left, if we want to expose his crimes, we have to find evidence." I turned my head and whispered to Conan. "But we don't have conclusive evidence now. We only have his motive for committing the crime. Although I think he should have some remaining playing cards on him, we have no reason to search him. So, I plan to subdue him directly when he is about to kill Nana Koyamauchi." "Can you guarantee Nana's safety?" Conan asked doubtfully. "If she is killed, I will not forgive you."
"Don't worry, don't worry. I was born a killer. It's simply a fantasy for an ordinary person to kill someone in front of me. Although we can't use knives or guns here, I have many ways to deal with a sommelier." I said confidently. "Next, we just have to wait for an opportunity..."
Bang!
Before I finished speaking, the lights in the hall where we were were all turned off. "Look, this is our chance." I smiled at Conan in the dark. Although I knew that Conan's heartbeat had accelerated because of the lights being turned off, I was still chatting and laughing in the face of this sudden scene. I was not moved at all.
I closed my eyes and used my listening ability to the maximum. After losing my vision and calming down, my listening ability was magnified several times. I regained the feeling of the duel with Gin. Soon, a three-dimensional space of thought was formed in my mind. Although Nana's terrified cry made me a little irritated, it did not hinder my performance. Soon, at the entrance of the hall, an extra footstep and panting sound approached us.
"Here they come!" I opened my eyes and looked for the person. Although I couldn't see, the angle of my vision was just right for the person who just ran in.
"Kaoru, look at Nana's hands!" Conan shouted in panic, and looked in the direction of Nana, only to see her slender fingers glowing with fluorescence. It turned out that Sawaki had tampered with her nail polish.
"What! Who?! No! Help!!" Nana, who was threatened, screamed in fear and ran outside. Of course, the moment she ran out, I jumped off the chair and followed her. I turned around the lobby fence and ran out faster than Nana. I stopped in front of a figure. Of course, in such a dark environment, the figure on the opposite side focused all his attention on Nana's glowing ten fingers. He didn't notice my existence at all. Just when he was about to grab Nana's shoulders, a huge impact hit his lower abdomen.
"Ouch..." The huge pain made him curl up his body, and the dagger in his hand almost slipped out. But the next second, before he could understand what was happening, he had lost his balance, his legs were off the ground, and he fell to the ground in an instant, and the dagger flew out.
Snapped!Snapped!
The lights in the room were turned on again, and Xiaolan and Conan ran towards the direction where Nana was screaming, only to see that next to the terrified Nana, Sawaki Kohei was lying there in pain. Next to him, the child Xiaoxun was sitting there at a loss.
"Sawa, Mr. Sawaki..." Xiaolan looked at the man lying on the ground in disbelief, because the gleaming dagger seemed to have explained everything.
"Ran! Are you okay?" My father and Officer Megure rushed over, also with an embarrassed look on their faces. However, Megure, who is a policeman, and the detective's father immediately took Nana and me away from him.
"Mr. Sawaki, can you explain to me what's going on?" Megure looked at Sawaki seriously.
"I, I don't know." Sawaki slowly stood up. "I heard Miss Nana's cry, so I ran over, and then I didn't know who punched me hard, and then I fell down." Sawaki still wanted to deny it. "As for the dagger, I don't know either."
"Xun, what about you? Why are you there?" Dad asked me while holding me away from Sawaki.
"I don't know either." I said innocently. "I heard Nana's sister's scream and felt scared, so I ran out with her. As a result, I tripped and fell." I made up a story. I didn't expect that Sawaki, this old man, was so slippery. Although the dagger fell there, it was far away from him, so he still had room to deny it.
"Mr. Sawaki, although we don't know what happened, we need to talk to you now and search you at the same time. Is that ok?" Although there was no direct evidence, Inspector Megure had already become suspicious of him.
"Okay." Sawaki compromised with a look of disappointment. This scene startled me a little. I was 100% sure that he was the murderer, but seeing how calm he was during the body search, I could only think of one thing. He had a backup plan!
boom! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
Just as Sawaki was still thinking about Officer Megure walking over, a huge explosion accompanied by a violent vibration shocked everyone's heart. At the same time, the lights in the house went out again.
"What, what's going on?!"
"It seems like something exploded!" Bai Niao said hurriedly.
Soon, the emergency lights in the hall were turned on again. The people who had just stood firm now seemed to be a little frightened. They had to leave here immediately.
"No!" My heart sank. "This explosion is not over yet!"
Sure enough, the next second, when I looked at Sawaki, I saw his hand move slightly in his trouser pocket, and then another explosion swept towards us, and this time, the explosion was in the aquarium. The previous explosion broke the outer wall of the aquarium and connected to the sea.
In an instant, a large amount of sea water rushed in, and everyone was instantly submerged in this turbulent torrent.
