Chapter 119

Because Mouri Kogoro was also a member of the police in his early years.

As his wife, she is quite familiar with the profession of a police officer.

Whether it is solving cases or arresting criminals.

Every police officer is required to keep a calm and rational brain at all times.

Just like when Mouri Kogoro shot her body to catch the murderer years ago.

Sato Miwako is a police officer she and her daughter are very familiar with.

Therefore, she also believes in Sato Miwako's professional ability.

To make a professional police officer take a defensive posture on the spot and look panicked.

It can only be because the person standing in front of her is a "strong enemy" she has faced before.

Kisaki Eri's gaze is cast straight toward Hoshino Ki.

According to the conversation between Mouri Ran and Sato Miwako just now.

Sato Miwako didn't know Hoshino Ki before.

Then why did she immediately determine that the other party was a very powerful "enemy"?

This is too abnormal.

Could it be that she was the same as him?

Just because she had a nightmare?

A dream about Hoshino Ki?

Impossible!

That’s too absurd.

If she said it out loud, people would think she was mentally ill.

Kisaki Eri sighed.

She shook her head helplessly.

Sato Miwako fixed her gaze on Hoshino Ki.

Her probing eyes scanned him from head to toe.

As a professional detective.

Besides handling the current case of assault with a knife.

She also had to maintain order at the scene to prevent the danger from spreading.

To avoid disrupting the normal classes and extracurricular activities of the school's teachers and students.

She decided to take the two parties involved in this incident.

Hoshino Ki and the mysterious sycophant.

As well as the witnesses Mouri Ran, Kisaki Eri, and several enthusiastic bystanders, to the police station.

To conduct a detailed follow-up investigation.

And so!

Hoshino Ki, having lived two lifetimes.

Sat in a police car for the first time.

"Your name is Hoshino Ki?"

Sato Miwako held the steering wheel.

She looked at the rearview mirror above the car.

"Yeah!"

In the rearview mirror.

Hoshino Ki was looking at the scenery outside the car window, resting his chin on his hand in utter boredom.

Sitting next to him was that unlucky mysterious sycophant classmate.

Although he could no longer feel the intense pain now.

He still looked a bit nervous.

"How about you? What's your name?"

Sato Miwako asked.

"I... I'm Oyamada Gengmu!"

The boy seemed to have regained his senses.

He timidly turned his head to glance at Hoshino Ki.

The moment his gaze met Hoshino Ki's pitch-black, indifferent eyes.

He gasped, then lowered his head in a panic.

His eyes were fixed directly on his own crotch.

The feeling of pain was still there.

He didn't dare to glance around at all.

"Do you two know each other?"

"No!"

"Yes!"

The two gave conflicting answers!

Hoshino Ki paused.

He turned his head to look at Oyamada Gengmu beside him.

"???"

Whether in his previous or current memories.

Hoshino Ki could not find any relevant memory of ever knowing Oyamada Gengmu.

If it wasn't that his own memory was flawed.

Then there was only one reason.

This reason lay with Oyamada Gengmu.

He was lying!

Was he mentally ill?

Delusional?

Possible.

After all, the guy was an idiot!

Hoshino Ki turned his gaze back to the window.

"Your testimonies are inconsistent, which means someone is lying."

"I hope you tell the truth when we get to the station..."

Sato Miwako glanced at them lightly.

After arriving at the police station.

Hoshino Ki and Oyamada Gengmu were placed in separate rooms.

Since Hoshino Ki was proven to be the victim by eyewitnesses.

He was not handcuffed.

They only questioned him about the case.

After a period of questioning and investigation.

The case was finally clarified.

Oyamada Gengmu himself was just a victim of an online romance scam!

Under the appraisal of professionals at the police station, that love letter.

Was found to be a machine-printed copy.

The "girlfriend" he spoke of was not Suzuki Sonoko herself.

Because the IP address shown by the other party's chat account was not in this city.

And the two had never met in private at school.

According to Oyamada Gengmu himself.

"Suzuki Sonoko" did not want their relationship to be exposed at school.

If that happened.

The school's teachers and students would look down on Oyamada Gengmu because of the gap in their status.

And the Suzuki Group would also use all its power to stop them from being together.

She was very considerate of Oyamada Gengmu.

And she truly loved Oyamada Gengmu with all her heart.

From an outsider's perspective.

This was clearly a straightforward online fraud case.

When the police asked Oyamada Gengmu if he had spent money on the other party.

Oyamada clearly stated that he had indeed sold a property he owned in his hometown.

He transferred all the money to the other party's private account.

Because he said his girlfriend was learning to start her own business.

This was a test set for her by the Suzuki Group.

As long as she passed this test.

Her family would not restrict her future freedom of marriage.

And the two of them could be together openly.

After the police's repeated persuasion and with effective evidence laid out before him.

Oyamada Gengmu remained obsessed and unrepentant.

Upon hearing the police's judgment.

He suddenly lost his mind and fell into a state of madness.

He roared in the police station and beat himself frantically.

He did not believe the police's handling of the case.

He only believed in "Suzuki Sonoko" herself.

Unless Suzuki Sonoko came to clear things up with him in person.

He would not admit his guilt.

"Uh!"

Mouri Ran's mouth twitched slightly.

The development of this story had clearly gone off the rails.

She didn't know how to handle it.

"Mom... what should we do?"

Mouri Ran tugged at the sleeve of Kisaki Eri beside her.

"Let's call Sonoko first. If she, the female lead, comes forward to persuade Oyamada herself, everything will be solved!"

Kisaki Eri crossed her arms and leaned back in her chair.

Mature and calm.

"But Sonoko... went abroad!"

"Sigh... I'll call her first!"

Mouri Ran hesitated for a moment.

She still decided to pick up the phone and dial Suzuki Sonoko's number.

"Hello! Sonoko!"

It was originally a case of assault with a knife.

But it eventually led to a fraud case.

Although they all sympathized with Oyamada Gengmu's situation.

But the other party had done something dangerous after all.

Assault with a knife!

Whether it constitutes a crime depends on whether Hoshino Ki's injury is minor or serious.

Although Hoshino Ki was completely unharmed.

It still didn't change the fact that Oyamada Gengmu was a dangerous individual.

At the very least, this was just a simple physical conflict between two parties.

At the very worst!

This was a criminal case of attempted murder with an extremely malicious nature.

If the person Oyamada Gengmu wanted to kill today didn't have Hoshino Ki's good skills.

They would inevitably have been stabbed to death on the spot.

Oyamada Gengmu would be convicted of intentional injury.

And he would bear full criminal responsibility for this case.

Now that Hoshino Ki was completely unharmed.

According to Japanese criminal law.

It was impossible to charge Oyamada Gengmu with any serious crime.

Coupled with his current state of madness.

There was reason to suspect that he suffered from mental illness.

If so.

It would be even harder to convict Oyamada Gengmu arbitrarily.

Even so.

Hoshino Ki didn't feel he had lost anything.

After all, that kick of his wasn't light...

Of course, that was for an ordinary person.

As for why Oyamada Gengmu could still stand up...

It was probably because the other party's adrenaline had been skyrocketing.

If a person is in a state of anger or madness.

The sense of pain will be greatly reduced.

Hoshino Ki was not a saint.

Therefore, he didn't want to care about the health status of Oyamada Gengmu's "little bird" at this moment.

If he had sought medical attention immediately after being injured...

His little bird might have survived.

But now that so much time had passed.

That little bird was already dead.

Oyamada Gengmu could just change his name to Oyamada Gengda from now on!

"Ahhh!"

Just as Oyamada Gengmu lifted a bench and was about to smash it against the police station's glass.

A stream of blood suddenly flowed down his pant leg.

"Sizzle sizzle!!"

His crotch area.

Was suddenly soaked in red.

A small patch of blood slowly spread outward from the initial spot.

Eventually, it dyed his entire crotch red.

"Ahhh!"

The bench in his hand fell to the ground with a loud crash.

Then his eyes rolled back.

He fainted on the floor of the room.

He didn't even have time to cover his crotch...

"Call an ambulance!"

"Ahhh!"

The police station was in a mess.

Ask yourself, which police officer had ever encountered such a thing during an interrogation?

The suspect went crazy on the spot in the middle of the interrogation.

Not only did it affect the progress of the case, but it also scared the young officers.

The suspect went crazy and blew his own balls?

Blood splattered three feet away?

Is this normal?

Is this really not a supernatural case?

Mouri Ran came outside the door.

Seeing everyone in a panic, she couldn't help but feel a little confused.

She stopped an officer who was passing by:

"Officer, what happened over there?"
