Conan's organization will end sooner or later without me

Chapter 73 Even if the other party might be a murderer?

When the two walked into the elevator, it happened that the elevator was slowly descending.

"We've reached the 22nd floor. We're really lucky." Yin Jiu looked at the numbers that kept going down. They lived on the 20th floor of the Izu Princess Hotel. Although it was not a high-rise building, because this hotel had many floors and it was the peak tourist season, the elevator often stopped far away from the middle floors.

Amuro Toru was not as optimistic as Yin Jiu. "There was a case downstairs, and unrelated people usually wouldn't move around at this time. Besides, the victim fell from a high place, so maybe the person sitting there is related to this case."

"Indeed, there is such a possibility, but it would be great for me to be able to go down earlier." Yin Jiu's face was visibly filled with happiness, and then this happiness came to an abrupt end as the elevator door opened.

"Ah, Xiao Jiu!"

The first people to appear in the elevator were Mouri Ran and a short-haired girl, and as expected, the elementary school student in a suit that Amuro Toru least wanted to see was hanging by their legs.

"Xiaojiu, are you feeling better?"

Several people saw Yin Jiu fainting and being carried away, and they were a little worried at the moment.

"Much better," Yin Jiu smiled and was about to come forward to chat with a few people, but was quickly blocked by Amuro Toru.

"I'm sorry, Xiaojiu is still feeling a little uncomfortable right now, I hope you won't disturb him."

After saying that, he pulled Yin Jiu to find a seat in the corner.

what the hell?

Conan silently observed the cold-faced agent from the side. He didn't know if it was an illusion, but he felt that this dark-skinned young man particularly disliked them.

The elevator room, which was originally full of laughter and conversation, immediately became silent after two familiar people joined in.

"Um..." Even Mouri Ran noticed that Amuro Toru disliked their family, and she hesitated and prepared to open her mouth to liven up the conversation.

Unexpectedly, on the 19th floor, the elevator door opened again.

"How could this be!" The first person to scream was the short-haired woman that Yin Jiu didn't recognize.

Ran Mouri's first reaction was to protect Conan and the girl behind her.

Yin Jiu poked his head out from behind Amuro Toru and saw a man wearing a top hat and a smiley mask on his face.

"The Count of the Night?" Yin Jiu immediately recognized that this was the costume of a character in Kudo Yusaku's novel.

While several people were still standing there in a daze, Mao Lilan rushed to the front and kicked the person in the face with all her strength.

"what?"

Mao Lilan's kick was easily deflected like a joke. Her pupils shrank and she stood there in a daze.

"Chase him! He is the murderer."

Conan's shouting alerted Toru Amuro. Although he didn't understand the details of the case, his body reacted instinctively when he saw the situation. Toru Amuro stepped forward and chopped at the Dark Night Baron's face with a knife, while his other hand clenched into a fist and went straight to the opponent's bottom lane.

"boom."

This time the opponent failed to block the attack, and the upward attack was obviously a feint.

The rogue style of fighting obviously gained the upper hand. The Dark Night Baron was hit directly in the abdomen. He groaned and fled into the distance.

"Hurry, he's trying to escape! Chase him!" Conan was still standing beside them, craning his neck and stretching his hands, cheering.

"Don't chase me for now."

Yin Jiu came out of the elevator holding his phone. He walked to Conan's side and moved the camera away from the elementary school students. "It's too dangerous. The other party is in this building now. There's no need for us to chase them. We just need to wait for the police downstairs to deal with it."

"Yes." Amuro Toru rubbed the back of his hand, and saw his silly roe deer shaking his head at him, and his brows frowned slightly.

He thought about letting the Night Monster Baron disappear from his sight, and turned around to see his silly roe deer mixed with this group of unlucky guys again, holding up a cell phone, "What are you doing?"

"Record it. This is the first time I went out with Brother Tou and I encountered something like this. Shouldn't we record it as a memorial?" Yin Jiu blinked his left eye and made a playful gesture, "I recorded Brother Tou's heroic image."

"..." Toru Amuro said.

Should he be thankful that his silly roe deer is heartless?

Should I be angry at the other party? It’s ok that he didn’t know how to hide at this point, and he even took photos to commemorate the moment.

The little episode passed quickly, and when they got downstairs, Toru Amuro took Yin Jiu and a few others and parted ways.

Toru Amuro made ginger tea for Yin Jiu. Yin Jiu only took two sips and began to sway with happiness.

"Is it really that delicious?" Toru Amuro was infected by Yin Jiu's atmosphere and a smile appeared on his face.

"It's not delicious," Yin Jiu blew away the rising steam, his face full of nostalgia, "When I was a child, every time I got caught in the rain, my mother would prepare a bowl of ginger soup for me. I thought it was a unique Chinese custom, but I didn't expect to encounter it here. And the ginger tea tastes so good."

"That's nothing." Seeing Yin Jiu was drinking happily, Amuro Toru poured another cup for Yin Jiu. "Director Kinoshita is one quarter Chinese. He prepared ginger tea for the crew because they were going to shoot underwater scenes. It should be the habit of one of his elders in the past."

"Really? Then I'm really lucky." Yin Jiu held the cup and took another sip, his eyes narrowed comfortably.

Toru Amuro had mixed feelings. He had wanted to ask since the script started filming: had Yin Jiu ever been bullied because his parents were not around?

But he didn't have the heart to ask. Yin Jiu was a mixed-race, the most unloved mixed-race with an unknown father and a missing mother.

Toru Amuro recalled his past experiences, and his intuition told him that Yin Jiu was probably also bullied. He looked at Yin Jiu with a loving face.

"?"

Yin Jiu was just drinking ginger tea. When he looked down and then up again, he found that his colleague's gaze had completely changed, and goose bumps appeared all over his body.

"..." Amuro Toru also noticed Yin Jiu's gaze. Not wanting to mention the other party's sad things, he was very considerate and tried to find other topics. "Why did you ask me not to do it just now? Did you find something?"

Although Toru Amuro called Yin Jiu a fool in his heart every day, he actually never thought that Yin Jiu was really stupid. On the contrary, he thought Yin Jiu was a very smart child.

The reason he was called must be that the other party discovered something in advance.

"Because..." Yin Jiu hesitated for a moment, looking through the window at the people outside, "Senior Xiaolan's expression was very strange at that time."

"That expression is like she discovered something. Mori-senpai is the karate champion of Kyoto. If she really meant that kick just now, there must be only a handful of people who can easily take it. Maybe it was Mori-senpai's predecessor..."

"So you want to let your senior run away?" Amuro Toru stared at Yin Jiu, "Even if the other party might be a murderer?"
