Kindaichi of Kexue World

Chapter 209 Kindaichiji's Confusion and Escape
After the maze murder incident on the TV station, many things have changed.

Because of the scandal, Mori Kogoro's program was finally blocked, and his plan to go on TV this time to promote it failed.

Matsuo Takashi's attempted murder, although not very guilty, has also cast a stain on the industry, and his career has almost been abolished since then.

Suzuki Yuko's star dream was shattered, and she also suffered a lot of pressure from public opinion because of the scandal.

The Suwa Michihiko scandal broke out unexpectedly. Although he was the victim, his reputation was completely stink. The TV station also used public relations methods to make things worse, and completely shifted the responsibility to him.

Even his funeral was barely attended.

However, because Kindaichiji directly revealed the truth of the case in front of the media, coupled with the fact that some hands were behind it, his news of solving the case even overshadowed the scandal for a time.

It is a familiar means.

Anyway, this brought his reputation to a new peak, which can be seen from the high reputation and the skill [Reaper's Approval] that has become a [Reaper Apprentice].

[Apprentice Reaper]: Can grow, cannot consume reputation points to upgrade, cannot be removed. 20% bonus reputation gained.The probability of independently encountering a case increases slightly, the probability of interacting with important people in the main world increases greatly, the probability of becoming a criminal suspect greatly decreases, and the probability of becoming a victim is zero. (You're on your own for now, but you've got to keep up the good work, Madada Darne.)
But these gains did not make Kindaichiji happy.

He helped Suwa Yuji finish the very deserted funeral, and returned to Suwa Dojo with him.

After a fierce kendo competition, Kazuto Kaneda collapsed on the floor covered in sweat, already exhausted.

He thought that venting like this would make him feel better, but Kaneda Kazuto felt very uncomfortable seeing the dojo that had just improved a little bit and turned into a mere human again.

Suwa Michihiko's scandal, of course, also affected his family.

Not only the enrollment of the dojo, it is said that even Yuji Suwa's kendo upgrade exam has been affected.

Looking at this desolate appearance, he would often think, how good it would have been if the murderer hadn't been caught at that time?

But in that case, it would be impossible to give Suwa Michihiko justice.

But looking at the consequences of punishing the murderer now... it would be better not to find out the murderer, at least it can save those who are still alive from the pressure of the scandal.

Kindaichiji felt very confused now.

He just experienced the mentality that a detective should have. He solved a rather difficult case almost independently, and gained a lot of experience as a detective. Even the system recognized his growth, which is just a matter of pride.

But when he was most proud of his life, he received a slap in the face. Suwa Michihiko's scandal made him look like a clown, an accomplice to evil.

Suwa Michihiko's deeds made even Kindaichi feel disgusted!

In the end, should we persist in solving the case for the sake of justice and axiom, or give up the truth for the sake of favor and the living?

He didn't know, and he really wanted to find someone to tell him the answer.

It's not that he hasn't encountered such troubles in the past, for example, Marina Lingtsuji in "The Legend of Snow Yasha Murder Case", her motives are so sad that it makes people feel distressed.

His compassion made him confused.

This time it was even more excessive, with his relatives and friends on the one hand, and fairness and justice on the other.

In the past, he could persuade himself and anesthetize himself with the spirit of Ah Q. At worst, he would not be able to solve the case. Wouldn't it be good to focus on his acting career?

But now, even the darkness of the entertainment industry has inadvertently stood in front of him.

Unspoken rules, capital oppression, manipulation of public opinion, triads.

All the appalling news from the previous life came out all at once.

Thinking that he might encounter such a thing in the future, he suddenly became timid.

Why did you choose this path in the first place? !

Although he likes acting very much now and enjoys the life of another character, but at the beginning he didn't have any special interest in this path, let alone any dream.

To put it bluntly, he can do whatever he wants, as long as he has the ability to do it.

It's a pity to do so, so give up?
Anyway, now that he has gained a firm foothold in the system, his reputation doesn't seem to be such a difficult thing to get, and it's not easy to change his career...
But what's the matter with shrinking back when encountering difficulties!
In this way, even if you change your career, you will give up sooner or later!

Kindaichiji's mind is very messed up, he hasn't been able to get a full night's sleep for many days.

Although Yuji Suwa saw him like this, he didn't say anything, but his eyes were full of melancholy and concern. Being able to practice swords with Kazuji Kaneda was already the limit of what a person like him could do.

But Kindaichiji wanted him to talk to him more, to tell him what he did was right, or to scold him, just scold him for meddling in his own business!
In the end, Kazuto Kaneda just dragged his heavy body and left Suwa Dojo. Before leaving, Suwa Yuji asked lightly, "Are you coming back from now on?"

Although Kindaichiji nodded, but actually he didn't know whether he would come or not.

······
Due to the soaring fame again, commission letters came one by one like snowflakes.

Kindaichiji was not in the mood to deal with these matters, he still passed on the case that Ruriko Sakura was interested in to her, and left the rest to Kogoro Mouri.

Yingshu Liulizi looked at his state, and she immediately understood his troubles, and knew that he was getting into a dead end.

She knew that a naive person like him who had no ideals and beliefs would encounter this kind of thing sooner or later.

She has no intention of enlightening him, this is a hurdle for him, and he has to do everything by himself.

Conan is also very concerned about his state, but he doesn't understand Kindaichiji's entanglement.

In his opinion, justice and axiom must be upheld, cases must be solved, and crimes will never be tolerated!

The difference in his attitude towards the prisoner's motives and the hidden truth behind the incident lies in whether he can master a "degree" that will not drive the prisoner to death.

His rhetoric was of little use to Kindaichiji, and he later left after confirming that Kindaichiji did not use some illegal means to convict Suzuki Yuko.

Maybe he believes that as a detective, Kindaichiji must figure out some things by himself...

Later, friends around him came to see him one by one, and even Hattori Heiji, who was far away in Osaka, called to care about him, but this did not make Jean's condition better.

Many days passed without knowing it, and Kindaichi gradually turned into a salted fish.

From the beginning, I tossed and turned and couldn't sleep after thinking about it, and then I became a salty fish who didn't think about anything, and didn't want to do anything.

When he woke up this morning, Kanedaichi found that it was snowing heavily outside the window, and it turned into winter again in a blink of an eye.

Today is the day to leave for Hokkaido, Shinna Kabori has already picked up Kazuto Kaneda with a bag of luggage.

The movie "Yuki Yasha Legendary Murder Case" still needs to be shot, after all, the studio has invested a lot of manpower and material resources in it, and changing roles now will be very troublesome.

Forget it, when a monk hits the clock one day, we still have to shoot the movie first.

No mistake, he escaped again.
