Chapter 97 What——?! (15)

"Ms. Yoko! Mr. Akikawa!"

A girl's voice was heard from the side.

Akikawa Sosuke turned around when he heard the voice.

Then I saw Mao Lilan, Suzuki Sonoko and Itakura Misaki running towards here quickly.

After hearing Suzuki Sonoko's voice, Okino Yoko hurriedly wiped her eyes and then stepped back from Akikawa Sosuke.

However, this scene was clearly seen by Mao Lilan and others who came rushing over.

The two girls looked at each other and saw the surprise in each other's eyes.

"Xiao Xiaolan, did you see that just now?"

Suzuki Sonoko said in shock with blushing cheeks.

"I saw Miss Yoko just hugged Mr. Akikawa and she seemed to be crying."

Mao Lilan also widened her blue-purple eyes, and shame and extreme surprise appeared on the girl's delicate face.

Is this still the big star Yoko Okino that they know?

"Ms. Yoko, Mr. Akikawa, what exactly happened?"

Akikawa Sousuke's agent, Itakura Misaki, ran over quickly.

It was obvious that her physical strength was not as good as that of Mouri Ran and Suzuki Sonoko, and her breathing was heavy when she spoke.

“I don’t really understand the situation.”

Akikawa Sosuke showed a confused expression and looked at Okino Yoko.

And Okino Yoko stared into Itakura Misaki's eyes with her deep blue eyes and asked softly:

"Why is Ms. Itakura with Ms. Mori and Ms. Suzuki?"

When Yoko Okino asked questions to Misaki Itakura, her tone was as gentle as ever.

But even so.

Itakura Misaki was stared at by Okino Yoko's eyes, which were still a little red. She still felt like she had done something wrong and was a little afraid to look directly into Okino Yoko's eyes.

She had promised Yoko Okino that she would not let Akigawa Sosuke continue to contact Suzuki Sonoko and others.

In the end, I broke the agreement.

At this moment, there were hurried footsteps coming again.

Everyone looked in the direction where the sound came from and saw Sera Masumi running towards them quickly.

Behind Masumi Sera is Conan, an elementary school student wearing a suit and bow tie, and a group of police officers from the Metropolitan Police Department.

This pretty girl breathed a sigh of relief after seeing that Okino Yoko and Akikawa Sosuke were both safe and sound.

She didn't waste any words, looked at Akikawa Sosuke, and got straight to the point.

"Mr. Akikawa, I heard that Takao Ohkawa invited you to meet him here. What's going on?"

"This morning, after Ms. Itakura and I finished watching the movie written by Oda, we happened to meet Mr. Ohkawa who was also coming out of the screening room."

"After meeting me, Mr. Ohkawa invited me to come here at 1 p.m., saying he wanted to introduce me to Director Horita."

Akikawa Sosuke still had a look of confusion on his face, as he told Sera Masumi the truth.

"Akikawa-nii, you mean that Mr. Ohga watched the same movie as us?"

Conan also heard what Akikawa Sosuke said. He suddenly spoke and asked Akikawa Sosuke.

"Yes."

"really!"

Although it sounds simple, Akikawa Sosuke was invited by Ohkawa Takao.

But Conan still extracted a lot of key information through these two sentences.

"Ms. Sera, do you still remember the air conditioner in my director's personal lounge?"

"Remember, the air conditioner in my director's office was set to 32 degrees Celsius, which means the criminal wanted to speed up the transformation of the corpse and the oxidation of the blood."

Sera Masumi nodded.

"From our judgment, Director Sogabe was killed between 9:30 and 11:10, and the murderer wanted to trick us into thinking the time of death was earlier." "The murderer must have done this to create an alibi for himself when he committed the crime."

"And Takao Ohkawa watched the same movie as us, and happened to have a clear alibi between 9:00 and 10:30, so his situation is consistent with the murderer's behavior of turning on the air conditioner!"

Conan nodded upon hearing this.

He also confirmed another thing through Akikawa Sosuke's words.

"It seems that Mr. Ohkawa just happened to see Brother Akikawa when he came out of the screening room and suddenly decided to attack him."

"His main purpose is to put the blame on Director Horita."

After Conan finished speaking, he secretly glanced at Akikawa Sorasuke, who looked shocked and confused because of his words, and couldn't help grinning.

"Come to think of it, this Akikawa is really unlucky."

'I was mistaken for a murderer in the previous car accident, and I was almost killed when I performed at the Empire Theatre last time. This time, I was targeted by a stranger again.'

"What kind of luck is this?"

What Conan didn't notice was.

After hearing his analysis, Yoko Okino's eyes twitched slightly.

"The target of the attack, the blame? Conan-kun, what are you talking about?"

Akikawa Sosuke was shocked after hearing Conan's words, and then asked Conan in a panic.

"Thanks to Mr. Akikawa, you were stopped in time by Ms. Yoko. If you had really gone to meet with Ohkawa Takao, I'm afraid you would have been killed by now."

"ah--!?"

Akikawa Sosuke opened his mouth wide and was stunned for a moment.

Just as Sera Masumi was about to continue speaking, she suddenly seemed to feel a sharp gaze.

She turned her head slightly and saw Yoko Okino looking at her tenderly.

There was no sharpness in his eyes.

"Ms. Sera, this incident has nothing to do with Akikawa-kun, right?"

"Besides, as a detective, it's not a good idea to reveal the case to the general public, right?"

Yoko Okino's tone was gentle, and it sounded like she was kindly reminding Masumi Sera not to reveal the case casually.

"It really doesn't matter. Once we catch Ohkawa Takao and get the testimony of Mr. Akikawa and Ms. Itakura, that will be enough."

As Sera Masumi was speaking, he saw that Megure Juzo had brought the police to disperse all the tourists.

"Ms. Sera, do you mean that Mr. Ohga is in the exhibition hall?"

Akikawa Sosuke asked.

"Yeah, didn't he make an appointment to meet Mr. Akikawa here?"

Sera Masumi answered.

"Then why didn't I get a response when I knocked on the door just now?"

"And the door of the room is locked and can't be opened."

Akikawa Sosuke said with some confusion.

"What--?!"

Akikawa Sousuke's words made Sera Masumi and Conan both scream in surprise.

Masumi Sera, who was about to walk towards the exhibition hall, suddenly turned around and looked at Akikawa Sosuke with wide eyes.

"Mr. Akikawa, you mean that you were not stopped by Miss Yoko outside, but you knocked on the door and even tried to open it?"

If this is true, then it is a miracle that Akikawa Sosuke is able to survive.

"Yes."

Akikawa Sosuke nodded.

He looked at Sera Masumi and Conan, his handsome face full of confusion.

"If Mr. Ohga was still in the room, why didn't he open the door for me?"
