2471【Passing by Uzo】Please vote for me (づ?ど)?

Mrs. Sakihara realized belatedly that she seemed to be on a pirate ship. It was an extremely mysterious and strange ship that she could not understand at all.

"I thought that what happened today would be a turning point in my life, opening up a new life for me that was completely different from the past..." Mrs. Sakihara looked blank, "But now it seems that the beginning has begun, but this life...

Isn’t it a bit too new?”

Even though there is no evidence at present, the strange thing that just happened gave this keen law student some vague understanding of his future.

Mrs. Sakihara fell into a new round of troubles.

Next to her, Conan frowned quietly and looked at her.

Conan: "..." As a detective who has come into contact with countless criminals and exposed countless conspiracies, he is very familiar with this kind of reaction when the psychological defense line is broken. But for some reason, looking at Mrs. Sakihara at this time, he always feels...

I feel like something is wrong.

"Rather than being surprised at being exposed, what surprised her more was Uncle Maori himself who said these reasonings?" Conan carefully observed the woman in front of him and muttered in his heart, "And she actually started to lose focus, like

It was through Uncle Maori's words that she could not help but think of something that shocked her..." This reaction became more and more wrong. What was going on?

"Xiaohui." In the weird and unspeakable atmosphere, Mouri Kogoro finally finished his reasoning. He looked at the former student in front of him and said sadly, "surrender yourself. If something like this happens, I also have a responsibility - to teach you.

Before knowledge, I should teach you to respect life."

What he said this time was completely different from what the man in black said before.

As if two overlapping and distorted pieces of time were silently torn apart, the indescribable sense of immediacy finally disappeared. Mrs. Sakihara's eyelashes trembled and she raised her head.

She paused for a moment and slowly leaned back on the sofa: "I once respected life, but in the end no one seemed to respect me. If, I mean if, the person sitting in the car was me..."

Halfway through her words, looking at Mouri Kogoro's expression, Mrs. Sakihara sighed and said no more.

She straightened her expression and said apologetically: "Sorry, actually I don't know what you were talking about just now."

Mouri Kogoro: "You...!"

Mrs. Sakihara put the water cup on the coffee table and lowered her gaze: "The previous explosion scared me. I have been in a trance today, so I remembered some things wrong-I suddenly remembered that in fact, I was not just in the last week.

I saw Mr. Takahashi who planted the bomb in the supermarket. I also saw him before in a commercial street in Shinjuku District.

"Maybe it's because his appearance is really distinctive, and those eyes are deeply imprinted on my subconscious, so when I describe his appearance to the police officer, I can recount his general appearance."

Conan looked at her seemingly flustered but calm look, and his heart skipped a beat, feeling that his bad premonition had come true.

This argument is simply impeccable - even if we really check the whereabouts of Takahashi Hiromasa, we will only be able to find out that he did appear in that commercial street. This is because the two husbands once provided each other with information in order to confirm the whereabouts of each other's wives.

They passed the surveillance location, and all the exchanges between the two of them fell into the ears of Mrs. Sakihara.

That commercial street will not be completely covered by surveillance. Even if Takahashi Hiromasa wore sunglasses to hide his appearance when he followed Mrs. Sakihara, he could not prove that he never took off his sunglasses during the whole process - and he himself was involved with this

The car bombing case is so involved that even if he insists that he never showed his eyes, his testimony may not be accepted.

"Perhaps she was distracted just now because she was thinking about how to explain it?" Conan touched his chin and quickly denied his guess, "No, she had already started to wander long before Uncle Maoli mentioned the portrait as evidence.

After she came to her senses, she said that excuse directly, as if she had planned how to deal with this kind of cross-examination in advance... Wait, 'in advance'?!"

A thought flashed through Conan's mind: Did someone predict this scene and tell Mrs. Sakihara about it in advance?

"Although it is possible that Mrs. Sakihara noticed her mistake and tried to make amends... But this assumption cannot explain her strange reaction when she heard Uncle Mouri's reasoning just now - her expression was almost like

It's like a ghost. Something extremely rare must have happened, which is why even a person like her can barely control her expression."

Conan's thoughts were spinning rapidly, bringing him into Mrs. Sakihara's perspective, trying to restore the scene at that time, but he had no clue for the moment.

Also looking confused was Mouri Kogoro: he didn't expect that his admonishment would be so easily blocked.

Then what?

What to do then?

There is no evidence when there is no evidence, and the other party refuses to listen... Middle-aged detectives rarely encounter this situation. After sitting in the living room of Mrs. Sakihara's house for a while, Mouri Kogoro scratched his head and had to stand up, quite shocked.

He took his two children and left.

As soon as he stepped out with his front legs, Conan slipped back quietly with his back legs.

"Sister Sakihara, did anything strange happen to you before we showed up?" He looked up at the abnormal suspect in front of him, trying to act as curious as a child should, "Can you tell me quietly? I promise not to

I will tell Uncle Maori."

Mrs. Sakihara came to her senses and looked down at the innocent-looking primary school student in front of her.

She knew in her heart that she shouldn't tell anyone what happened just now, but maybe it was because it was so unbelievable, or maybe it was because the cute child's question was too hard to refuse. By some strange combination, she murmured: "It's nothing, I just met...

…a dress rehearsal.”

"Rehearsal..." Conan pondered the word for a moment, suddenly remembered something, and his voice rose uncontrollably, "Rehearsal?!"

A sentence he had heard before suddenly emerged from the depths of his memory: An actor who avoids the stage has no value in existence.

——This sentence was first said by the woman in black who gave him and Haibara Ai passports. Later, he relayed this sentence to Okiya Subaru, and successfully gained a strange graduate student who was out of his mind.

Since then, Conan has been highly wary of "stage" and words related to it. He couldn't help but ask: "Who did you see? What does that person look like and what are his characteristics?!"

Mrs. Sakihara came to her senses and suddenly realized that she had said something she shouldn't have said.

She smiled softly and calmly talked about the topic: "There is no specific person, I just met a drama troupe who went out to collect music - if you are interested in these, you can ask Teacher Maori to take you to the theaters in Tokyo.
