Conan's organization will end sooner or later without me

Chapter 85: The Idol Romance Case Re-opened

Conan was speechless after being blocked by Yin Jiu's logic, and even began to question his own low emotional intelligence. He returned to Mao Li Ran with a depressed expression.

Yin Jiu didn't plan to say hello. The interview was about to begin. Male guests didn't really need to wear excessive makeup.

Especially Yin Jiu's appearance is impeccable. After carefully looking at his face, the makeup artist only applied a thin layer of shadow on the end of Yin Jiu's eyes, and then put away the makeup tools. "This is good enough. Any more will be superfluous."

The camera was hung right in front of the people, and as the makeup artist left the stage, the live broadcast began to get down to business.

"I heard that Mr. Maori once solved a murder case with Xiaojiu in Izu, and it was the two of you who worked together at the time. Now that you are together on this show again today, do you have anything to say to each other?" The host first brought up a topic to liven up the atmosphere.

Kogoro Mouri didn't remember anything about the Izu case and just laughed and tried to laugh it off.

Yin Jiu took over the conversation very naturally, "In fact, the entire process of solving the case was completed by Uncle Maori alone, but he needed some props from the crew at the time, so he borrowed them. Rather than saying that I cooperated with Uncle Maori, it would be more accurate to say that the props team and the uncle cooperated to solve the case."

"Oh? So you have seen Mr. Maori in a sleeping state with your own eyes. Do you think there is any difference between Mr. Maori in a sleeping state and Mr. Maori in normal times?" When the host saw Yin Jiu taking over the conversation, he threw out a new question with an exaggerated expression.

"Well... there is a slight difference," Yin Jiu pretended to be thinking hard, "Maybe the uncle when he is asleep really gives people a very reliable feeling."

"Hey, hey, kid, am I unreliable?" Kogoro Mouri immediately retorted.

The atmosphere began to liven up. The host knew that the 'warm-up exercise' had been completed and looked at Yin Jiu gratefully. After a slight smile, he turned to Maori Kogoro and got to the point, "So, Mr. Maori..."

The interview on the stage was in full swing, and Toru Amuro and Ran Mouri were arranged in adjacent seats below.

"What's going on, Dad? Why are you laughing so weirdly?" Mao Li Ran didn't see Yin Jiu's attempt to save the situation at all. She looked at Mao Li Kogoro who was laughing so hard that his tongue was almost sticking out of his lips on the stage and covered her face in embarrassment.

"Come to think of it, Mr. Mori doesn't seem to like discussing the case with others," Toru Amuro did not forget his task of getting close to the Mori family. While his silly roe deer was away, he picked up a random topic and naturally blended in.

This family is suspicious, but if used well, they can be a help.

"Yes, every time someone mentions a previous case to my father, he would just brush it off." Mao Lilan also found this question strange. After all, murder cases would almost always be reported in the newspapers in the end, and the reason of protecting the privacy of the criminals did not seem to be justified.

"Perhaps Mr. Kogoro's memory of sleeping is also vague?" Amuro Toru's mind was full of information about the disease. He looked at Kogoro Maori on the stage with a tentative smile on his face, "So, Mr. Maori would fall asleep suddenly sometimes?"

"That's not true."

"..."

Conan was aware of the situation when he heard the conversation between the two. He squeezed in between the two people through the narrow aisle and used the strategy of "encircling Wei to save Zhao". "Brother Amuro, are you Brother Yinjiu's manager? Do you usually live together?"

"Most of the time not, but Xiaojiu can't cook, so I often go to help."

The topic of Amuro Toru was diverted, but he was not discouraged. Since he had decided to investigate the Mori family in depth, he was naturally prepared to have long-term contact with this group of people. His attitude took a 180-degree turn. When the dark-skinned boy smiled, he had a special affinity.

"But sometimes I also have to thank you friends for taking care of me. After all, I have other side jobs, so I really can't take care of Xiaojiu in every way."

"Mr. Amuro, do you have any other side jobs?" Mao Lilan was also attracted by the new topic and looked at Amuro Toru in surprise. She thought that if professional agents had extra time, they would manage more artists. For example, her father's favorite star, Okino Yoko's agent Mr. Yamagishi, managed more than one artist, and the competition for resources among artists almost caused misunderstandings.

"Yes, actually I also opened a detective agency, and I do a lot of work to obtain information." Amuro Toru seemed to be chatting casually, but in fact he revealed his identity as a detective. People are like this, once they have the same identity, it is easy to bring the two sides closer.

Mao Lilan's expression suddenly relaxed, but Conan still looked suspicious, "So, Amuro-san, you approached Yin Jiu-san in order to investigate some important information?"

"That's not the case," Toru Amuro raised his eyebrows when he heard Conan's question. In his heart, he silently labeled this blue-clothed kid who looked unlucky as 'quite smart'. Then he calmly stated the reason he had prepared at the beginning, "Actually, I got into the entertainment industry in order to investigate Okino Yoko's love history."

"Okino Yoko's love history?!"

"Shh, keep your voice down." The corner of Amuro Toru's eye twitched, and he immediately looked around vigilantly, and then made a shushing gesture to the two of them, "This matter is not a secret to you, it's the suicide case of Fujie Akiyoshi. Before that happened, someone anonymously commissioned me to investigate Okino Yoko's love history."

"I didn't want to investigate at the time, but then I received a bunch of photos of Yoko in high school with a man."

"The evidence is so complete that every love letter and call record is kept in the archives. The other party obviously has irrefutable evidence."

"But the strange thing is that the client's purpose in sending me the documents didn't seem to be simply to mock my investigative ability. After that, the person sent me a large sum of money, hoping that I would expose the matter."

"Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this is just an attempt to take advantage of me." Amuro Toru seemed to be immersed in his own memories, with a frown on his face and his eyes looking into the distance. "But the commission they offered was too high. I thought there must be something wrong, so I submitted my resume to join the studio."

"Then...that client, could it be..." Conan's pupils constricted as he listened to Toru Amuro's description.

"That's right." Amuro Toru nodded. "The client was probably Fujie Akiyoshi himself. He had already made up his mind to fight to the death. Such a large commission fee probably used up all his savings."

"If Detective Mori hadn't solved the suicide case, the detective who received the huge commission would have learned that 'Fujie Akiyoshi died at the hands of his beloved lover.' Exposing the relationship between Okino Yoko and him became Fujie Akiyoshi's last wish."

"In this case, even if it is to avoid being condemned by conscience, the detective who received the commission would probably choose to expose the documents. And by then, Okino Yoko would probably be ruined."

"So...so scary!"

Mao Lilan once felt sorry for the fate of the two, but now she hugged herself in fear.

Conan also fell silent.

If there was such a layer behind the case at that time, then Fujie Akiyoshi's tracking and beating of Okino Yoko was not in the name of reconciling the relationship. This extreme man wanted to destroy the other party from the very beginning.

"So I think I really need to say thank you to Detective Mori," Amuro Toru said solemnly, "otherwise I might be in big trouble."
