The Phantom Thief of Heart! But Conan

"Uh, you mean, the reason why Miss Nobuko is not married yet..."

"Yes, it's not that she can't find her target at all. The Nagato family is well-off, and the elders are kind-hearted. There aren't many high-level disagreements and fights within the group. Marrying her will automatically make you one of them, and many people are very happy to do so. of."

"Having an affair with a married man?"

"As far as I know, it looks like this."

"Well……"

"She seems to have been obsessed with this relationship and is unwilling to give up no matter what. It is also for this reason that she has always been hostile to me."

"This is a bit unreasonable."

"I think so too, but it shouldn't be because I discovered her 'secret'. I tried to communicate with her, but she was unwilling to change her view, and I don't know what Mr. Nagato Douzan told her..."

He kept talking, but Hinata Sachi's eyes were out of focus, as if he was looking blankly at a certain position in the void. His attention was obviously not on what he said.

Xingchuan Hui, who was sitting with her on the bench, kept talking to each other. He also knew that she was not actually interested in chatting at this time. She was just trying to divert her attention by talking continuously.

The shock of Nagato Hideomi's "death" had already caused a complete collapse. When he found Hinata Sachi, there were only a few dried and less obvious tears on her face, and she sat here in a daze.

It will take time to digest Hideomi's death and the truth of that year, and now she is still in the stage of trying to organize normal logic, and wants to regulate her emotions through aimless speech.

According to Karasawa, this won't take much time.

Tang Ze said firmly: "Believe me, this is a person who is far stronger than her appearance. You should be able to feel her inner strength from her palace. In less than one day, she will not only If you pick yourself up, you may even make a complete plan to kill Nagato Guangming..."

Hoshikawa Teru, who had accidentally fallen into the flames and experienced it personally, although he didn't know why Karasawa could estimate such a specific time, he believed in this statement.

So he adopted a relatively conservative strategy, that is, doing what Karasawa said.

He didn't take the initiative to talk to Hinata Yuki, but just sat quietly aside. If she spoke, he would say a few words. If she didn't speak, it would be enough to just sit there in a daze.

She didn't need her own comfort, and he wasn't the one who could give her comfort.

As he continued to listen to Hinata Yuki talking about the secrets of the Nagato family, he finally felt the movement of his cell phone that he had put in his inner pocket.

Ah, it seems that Nagato Guangming has already taken care of it.

Carefully changing his sitting position, he secretly took out his cell phone from his inner pocket, clicked on the message and took a look.

As expected, it was the news informing him of the action.

Taking a gentle breath, Hoshikawa Teru cleared his throat: "Miss Hinata, the situation of Mr. Nagato Hideomi is not optimistic. I can understand your mood, so I have been hesitating whether to hand over the things we found by the lake. you."

Hinata Sachi was brought back to his senses by Nagato Hideomi's name, stopped talking about Yasue's marriage life, and turned his head in the direction where he was sitting: "...There is no reason, and there is no reason for you to suddenly come to accompany me. I've been sitting there for so long. Let's just say, I'm mentally prepared."

She had received the email and had seen the worst of it.

The end of the world was just that, and she didn't think she could suffer any more blows.

"This is the letter we found among the offerings left by Mr. Nagato Hideomi."

After pinching the hard card in the letterhead, Hoshikawa Teru handed it to Hinata Yuki's hand.

Now that the notice letter can be handed over to her, Nagato Guangming in the hall should have been cleaned up and ready to be transported to the destination.

He should also leave as soon as possible and rush over to meet up.

Hinata Sachi took the envelope from him and stared at it with his head lowered.

The opening of the plain envelope was sealed with fire paint. At first glance, it looked like white paper with a drop of blood on it.

Hinata Yuki's mind was in an extremely active state and his association ability was too rich. The moment he thought of this metaphor, he quickly looked away and as if to escape, he hurriedly tore off the seal and opened the envelope.

Writing a letter with lacquer is actually not in line with Hidetomi's habit.

Hidetomi is a type who doesn't pay much attention to form. He entrusts his pain to words and only cares about the words themselves. Although he has no worries about food and clothing and has enough money to spend a lot of money, he insists on using only the simplest letter paper to write manuscripts for many years. I won't do these fancy things.

Bits and pieces of his lover's past life flowed through his mind. Hinata Xing, who was stung by the pain, curled his fingers before regaining his composure and pulled out the contents of the letter.

The cardboard is thicker and harder than letter paper. The red and black concentric circles extend from the center of the card, drawing people's eyes to the pattern in the center for the first time.

Red mask with top hat and flames.

The Phantom Thieves of Heart...?

Yes, two days ago, Xiuchen also discussed this topic with her, intentionally or unintentionally...

The term flashed by, and Hinata Sachi's eyes widened, and he quickly turned over the card.

Newspaper clippings of various sizes are pasted on its front.

"Hinata Yuki-dono is trapped in the fire and cannot find a way out.

Love and hate are intertwined, sorrow and joy are intertwined. Resentment is born in grief, and rage is born in hatred. It is difficult to calm down, and evil thoughts arise.

You have gone astray. You don’t know who to hate, who to love, or which words to trust. The past is like a mirror, a big dream.

But you know one thing for sure - someone should pay.

Your struggle and pain, your difficulty in making a choice, we all know this twisted despair and timidity, and we accept it.

Sincerely, The Phantom Thieves of Heart. "

Hinata Sachi looked at this notice naming names in disbelief, and suddenly raised his head and looked at Tang Zezhao who handed the letter to him.

In the moment she was reading the letter, the person on the other side of the bench had disappeared silently.

Only a white chrysanthemum stained with water was left, quietly placed in its place.

————

"Oh, there's some movement."

Karasawa was squatting by the side, poking at the dead pig-like Nagato Guangming on the ground with a sparkling wooden stick. He noticed that the surrounding air was getting more heated, and he raised his head.

"Shade's movements are pretty fast, aren't they?" Miyano Akemi, who was standing on the other side and was equally bored, also stood up.

Although Nagato Miguel had completely lost consciousness, Karasawa insisted on continuing to burn him before leaving the hall.

This request is easy to satisfy, but when the palace collapses, they still have to drag this guy out and complete the final finishing work.

So while they were waiting, the three of them silently stared at the blazing Nagato light.

It's very strange, there is an experience of simmering the soup around a slow fire and waiting for it to become soft.

"Ark, are you done?" Without hesitation, he bent his bow and arrow, aiming at the Buddha statue whose eyes widened in the middle of the fire. Asai shouted.

"The entry is complete." Noah's figure appeared behind them in the next moment. Although his face was still expressionless with only a hint of a smile, the light bar on his body was shining brightly and turning faster than usual. He was in a good mood. He said, "It's an interesting design, very interesting. I think I can learn how to use this 'flame' in the future. It will be very effective when used in theaters for external display, and it will be more like a game."

"It sounds like you want to perform some kind of walking through a ring of fire." Miyano Akemi patted her head, pulled off the mask on her face, and spread out her fan, "Are we the Phantom Thieves or a circus? ah?"

"It's okay to call it a circus. After all, your boss is a 'joker'." Tangze said with a smile. As he spoke, he began to pay attention to the whole team, "Okay, be careful, prepare to defend!"

In the flames, golden mantras floated one by one. The Buddha statue sitting there opened his eyes holding the lotus in his hand.

"...Is that the shadow of Hinata Yuki?" The tall Buddha statue started to get further away from them after he started to stand up. Asai Narumi narrowed his eyes and could barely see what was in the lotus, "This is... …?”

"Kagutsuchi. Kagutsutsuchi of fire." The old gamer Karasawa said without hesitation almost as soon as he saw the woman's hair and clothes made entirely of flames.

Although it stands to reason that Kagutsuchi should be a male figure... but to be honest, in terms of the games he has played, most of Kagutsuchi's characters are set to be girls.

The breasts are also deliberately drawn to be very large.

How should I put it, this can be regarded as Ritsu's traditional performing arts, so Tang Ze was not too surprised to see such a beautiful and slightly demonic Vulcan.

"Ah, the God of Fire who burned his mother to death because of his own birth..." Hearing this name, Asai Narumi nodded in understanding, "It's really a very pessimistic image."

"Don't lament, you two!" Miyano Akemi shouted as she jumped over a bunch of falling flames on tiptoes, "Both of your feather scarves are going to be set on fire! Move!"

"It's certainly a good thing that Guangming guy can receive the punishment he deserves, but I still don't understand what this has to do with deceiving Ayuki." Nagato Hideomi turned around anxiously, subconsciously thinking as he walked Covering half of his unrecognizable face, "Tell her the truth. This was originally my request, but, but..."

He really couldn't muster up the courage to face Hinata Sachi's possible anger and accusation, and he was also afraid of how everything would end.

It was very reasonable for Axing to choose to leave him, and he didn't even have the slightest intention to redeem the other party's position.

But if it's like this, using one lie to tell another lie, is it any better than now?

"Miss Hinata is more powerful than you think, relax." Hattori Heiji recalled the news he had received and persuaded her like this without confidence.

"She has been the president's secretary in the Nagato Group for so many years. This is not an easy position. The role responsible for uploading and distributing information requires a shrewd mind and flexible information." Conan must speak with certainty. Much more.

Because he received Tangze's email.

Karasawa said that after Goro Akechi brought the people to the place, he started tinkering with his equipment and scenery. With nothing to do for the time being, he first found Hinata Yuki who was still wandering around the lake, hoping to stabilize her to some extent. Emotions.

It must be said that it was indeed a bit wicked to deceive her about Nagato Hideomi's death in order to plan it.

Goro Akechi who made such a proposal was outrageous, but as accomplices, they seemed to be no better off. It was not surprising that Karasawa would choose to comfort the "victim" thoughtfully.

Then, he couldn't help but be shocked by what he received.

"This Miss Hinata is indeed very powerful. She knows more about the affairs of the Nagato family than you think. I finally understand a little bit about the reason for Akechi's design." Recalling the email with a huge amount of information , Conan's mouth twitched.

"Oh? What's the reason?" Hattori Heiji looked over curiously and suspiciously, "Did that guy send you something strange..."

Since he focused on investigating Karasawa's case, although Hattori Heiji really didn't like communicating with a guy like Akechi Goro who used detectives as a means, he still held his nose and exchanged a few letters with him.

Akechi told him about the possible situation at Karasawa's school and the fact that his parents had left Japan for many years because they encountered physical threats.

And he took money.

The nominal fee is consulting fee.

Just thinking about that tone made his teeth itch reflexively.

"The main thing is that Miss Hinata knows the situation of the Nagato family too well. Although she may not be able to keep up with the old housekeeper, she is different from the housekeeper. She is also involved in the complex power relationship of the Nagato Group... So, as long as she thinks, Nagato Mr. Hidetomi was harmed by Nagato Komitsu, and even if she digs three feet into the ground, she will definitely find something that can kill Nagato Komitsu."

As he spoke, he nodded and praised his reasoning. Conan turned his head and looked at the stunned Nagato Hideomi, and said something in a tone that did not suit his appearance.

"You really shouldn't lie to her. Tell her the truth and plan well. Even if you can't use the fire as an excuse, there must be a way to make Nagato Guangming pay the price."

"Indeed." Concerning this question, Hattori Heiji had to nod in agreement, "Although you don't care about family affairs, no matter what you say, you are Mr. Dosan's son... Hey, in fact, if you are willing to explain it clearly earlier, then He may not have the chance to become 'Nagato Light'."

When he said this, he had a rather unpleasant expression on his face.

This unhappiness was not directed at Nagato Hideomi, but at Nagato Miguel.

Obviously, he is the one who committed the crime, and he is obviously the one who should be immersed in the nightmare of the past because of guilt and be in panic all day long.

But in the end, this crime became a weapon for him to unscrupulously threaten others and a ladder for him to further seize wealth and power.

This is really, really unpleasant.

"Miss Hinata, you are back."

The attendant who was standing uneasily in the foyer immediately stood up reflexively as soon as he noticed someone walking in the door.

Hinata Sachi, who looked anxious but tried to smile, nodded to him: "Well, the two little detectives said they might have found some clues, and they said they would have to wait outside for a while."

She was in a natural state, just as she had been when she left.

She is the future young lady of the Nagato family, but because of her position in the company, she has to work hard to deal with the current mess.

"Oh, okay." The attendant felt sorry for the young lady from the bottom of his heart, and did not pay attention to the situation she introduced.

Hinata Sachi smiled gently again, as she usually did, and at the same time looked at the policeman who was still checking in the living room for a while, and asked naturally: "Where is Miss Yasujie, where has she gone?"

"She is very worried about Minister Guangming. Please ask the police officer to take her to the police station to collect nearby road surveillance. The master has gone to bed and Miss Nobuko has not come back yet." Undoubtedly, his attendant quickly informed her of the situation of her family members.

"That's it..." Hinata Sachi nodded, "I'll go back to the room and rest for a while. If you have anything, just call me on the landline."

"Okay, Miss Hinata."

Without showing any flaws, she nodded and greeted everyone she met along the way, and walked quietly towards the second floor along the ornately carved steps of the Nagato house.

Since no one is here...

She thought she could find what she wanted.

After calming down, Hinata Sachi walked towards his room with a steady gait.

When the policeman at the other end of the corridor looked away and walked upstairs, she quickened her pace, gently opened the door of Kang Jiang and Guangming's room, and stepped inside.

Bed, coffee table, dressing table...

Nagato Mitsuo was not someone who would take business matters home to deal with, and the room also contained more traces of Nagato Yasue's life.

He did have a study room at home, but because it was close to Hideomi's room, he rarely went there.

So, where will things be...

She made a quick judgment and quickly turned her attention to——

Ornately designed French cabinets opposite the bed.

According to her guess, Nagato Mitsuyo is the kind of guy who secretly hides things in secret compartments and lockboxes...

Thinking like this, she quickly opened the drawers one by one, checked whether there was a mezzanine, removed the drawer from the slide rail, and touched the back panel behind it.

And quickly found what I was looking for.

"Personal computer..." After taking out the heavy cold object, Hinata Yuki twitched his lips after just one glance.

She knew that Nagato Miguel was the kind of person who appeared to have a lazy attitude and knew nothing about work, but in fact would try his best to figure out the parts that he couldn't control.

What a bumbling guy.

Hidetomi, is this the kind of thing that has deceived and threatened you for twenty years?

She unfolded the laptop, and the azure desktop cast a cold-toned sheen on her face, illuminating the resolute look on her face, making her look particularly formidable.
