Chapter 636
Conan and Hattori Heiji built up their psychological defenses and took a sip of the coffee.
"Eh, it's actually quite good; it has a sour taste."
The two took turns drinking and soon finished the coffee.
"What? You're saying Akaso Kaze and Jodie both left and neither drank the coffee? And that coffee was drunk by a high schooler and a kid?"
Akai Shuichi was panting with rage, and it took a long while for him to calm down.
He waved his hand and said: "Forget it, let's stop here for today. It's getting late; hang a 'closed' sign on the door and go back. I'll watch here."
The confidant left.
Akai Shuichi sat blankly in the kitchen.
He didn't understand what he wanted to know.
The situation was clear: Jodie was already with Akaso Kaze.
But he just wasn't reconciled; he kept hoping that nothing had really happened between the two.
In the empty kitchen, Akai Shuichi boredly put on the wiretapping device.
He wanted to hear what those two visitors who had just left Jodie's house would say.
That's right, what he put in the coffee was the latest type of truth serum.
Although the effect wasn't that strong, they might say the truth inadvertently.
"Damn it, that Inspector Megure praised Akaso Kaze so much in front of us and drove us away like a plague."
Hattori Heiji smacked his lips while savoring the coffee, saying unconvinced.
"Yeah! He doesn't even think about how many cases Mouri-ojisan and I helped him solve, yet he treats us like this; it's too hateful!" Conan was also very indignant.
"But how did we lose to that guy? He didn't even come to the scene; how did he solve the case?" Conan asked suspiciously.
Hattori Heiji sighed and said: "I secretly asked the other police officers who were there just now. The deceased, Takai, pressed the call recording button on his phone before falling, recording the conversation between him and the killer, Mr. Kawakami. The murder method and motive were basically all explained."
Conan let out a "pfft" sound, nearly spitting out blood, and then his face collapsed in despair.
"Jodie-sensei must have secretly heard the recording when we weren't paying attention and told Akaso Kaze, that's why he could solve the case so easily!"
Conan and Hattori exchanged glances, both feeling a sense of shared misery and sorrow.
"What's so good about that guy? How come so many women are devoted to him?"
Conan felt his nose sour.
He thought of Mouri Ran again.
"Yeah, ever since we saw Akaso Kaze at the Spider Mansion last time, Kazuha has been different too; she compares me to Akaso Kaze in everything she does. How can I compare to him?"
Hattori Heiji also had tears in his eyes.
"And this time, Jodie-sensei actually did that kind of thing for Akaso Kaze..."
Akai Shuichi, who was listening, widened his eyes.
That kind of thing?
What kind of thing?
He immediately pricked up his ears.
"Yeah, she actually didn't hand the evidence to the police and secretly told Akaso Kaze, letting him show off. What kind of thing is that!" Conan shook his little head.
Akai Shuichi let out a long breath.
So that's what it was.
It was nothing major.
Hattori Heiji laughed: "Conan... no, Kudo Shinichi, even if you haven't been with a woman, you should have watched adult movies, right?"
Conan, Kudo Shinichi?
Could they actually be the same person?
Akai Shuichi's eyes suddenly burst with light.
Unexpected, what a huge harvest...
He was immersed in the joy of an unexpected huge secret when the next sentence made him feel like he had fallen into an abyss.
Only hearing Hattori Heiji say: "Can't you really recognize what the golden hair in the drain of Jodie-sensei's bathroom is? That is..."
Pfft.
A mist of blood erupted in the kitchen.
The light in Akai Shuichi's eyes vanished instantly.
He stared blankly at the polished stainless steel cabinet across from him.
The mirror-like stainless steel reflected his image.
Everything else was unchanged, only the black knit hat on his head seemed to have turned a vibrant green color.
"Unexpected, a high school English teacher actually did that kind of thing for Akaso Kaze."
"Wuwu, I'm so envious! I haven't even touched a woman since I was born."
Conan's crying voice came from the headphones.
"Me neither! My experience all comes from videos..."
"Why are we two so miserable!"
Hattori Heiji hugged Conan, and the two cried together.
Under the dual effects of mental trauma and the potion, both were a bit broken.
In the kitchen, Akai Shuichi was even more broken.
He looked at the image reflected in the stainless steel, silently took off the hat that had changed color.
Two lines of tears flowed silently down his cheeks.
He shook his head violently, wiped away the tears, and a resolute expression appeared on his face.
"No, Jodie and I are already in the past."
"Only Akemi is my one and only."
"Right, Miyano Akemi is my only goddess!"
Akai Shuichi forcefully put the knit hat back on his head and looked at the stainless steel mirror.
It looked like it wasn't as green as before. ===== CHAPTER 638 =====
