"That's good~"
Xia Ye smiled and nodded.
Conan really was born to solve cases.
Even if an ordinary person had that ability, they would probably get impatient long ago with one or two cases a day on average. Only these famous detectives can maintain their enthusiasm for all kinds of cases.
But this is also good~
With these commission fees.
Uncle Mori can do whatever he wants!
This can be considered a form of compensation for him.
...
Had a meal.
Xia Ye and Okino Yoko were drinking coffee and chatting.
Then I received a call from Kogoro Mouri~
"Xia Ye, do you know anyone in the traffic class?"
Since he had already accepted Natsume as his son-in-law, Kogoro Mouri considered him one of his own, so his tone was very casual.
"I have a license plate number. Could you help me find out where someone lives?"
"License plate number? Checking for someone?"
Xia Ye pondered for a moment. If it was the traffic class, then Yumi was in the traffic class, so checking a license plate number would be a piece of cake.
"What is your name?"
"Kitagawa Takeshi, license plate number *****"
"Wait a moment!"
No wonder I felt such a strong sense of déjà vu just now!
A flash of inspiration struck Xia Ye, reminding her of which case in the original story this was!
If it were any other case, it would be fine, but Xia Ye felt regretful for a long time after reading about this one. Now that he's encountered it again, he has to get involved!
"what happened?"
Kogoro Mouri was startled.
"How about this?" Xia Ye said.
"Uncle, have your client come downstairs to find me. I'm at Polo Cafe downstairs. Leave this case to me."
"here you are?"
Kogoro Mouri was quite puzzled, but it was just a very small request, not even a case, so he didn't pay too much attention to it. "Alright, I'll ask Ms. Noriko Okayani first. I'll hang up now."
Xia Ye put down her phone.
Yoko Okino could tell just by looking at him.
He must have encountered a case that left a deep impression on him!
Soon after...
The door to Polo Cafe was pushed open, and a woman who looked very pretty but had a melancholy look in her eyes walked in. When she saw Xia Ye waving at her, she was surprised for a moment and walked over!
Behind him followed Conan, that brat.
This intuitive guy also sensed something was wrong!
"Hello, Ms. Noriko Okayani!"
Xia Ye greeted the woman with a kind smile.
Hello...excuse me—?
Noriko Okaya really couldn't understand why this handsome man would take her case from Kogoro Mouri. If it weren't for Kogoro Mouri and Conan repeatedly emphasizing that Officer Natsuba was someone who could help, she definitely wouldn't have come over—
After all, she couldn't let the police know what she was going to do.
"Conan!"
Natsume glared at Conan: "I have something to discuss with Ms. Noriko, you should go back first!"
"But!"
Conan had already realized that Ms. Noriko's visit to the man named Kitagawa Fumio was definitely not out of any affection, and he was about to continue his investigation when Natsume took the commission away, leaving him somewhat unwilling!
"No buts!"
A cold smile appeared on Xia Ye's lips.
"hurry up!"
"Okay~"
Conan looked dejected; the fun was over!
However, he was actually quite at ease entrusting the task to Xia Ye.
After all, with Xia Ye's abilities, she can definitely find out the truth, so he won't have to worry about it.
He placed the portrait of Kitagawa Fumio, which he had taken from the agency, on the table in front of Natsume, and obediently left as Natsume had instructed.
After Conan left.
Natsume looked at Noriko Okaya and immediately frowned: "Ms. Noriko, you have more than thirty hidden injuries all over your body, such as 'muscle damage' and 'bone damage'. It must have been caused by a serious injury you suffered recently and then forced rehabilitation. Am I right?"
"how do you know?!"
Noriko Okaya blurted it out without thinking.
My rehabilitation went very well. The serious injuries from the car accident would normally require six months of rehabilitation, but I completed it in three months. Although the doctor said that I did have some hidden injuries, they were absolutely not visible on the surface—how did he know that?
"I know a tiny bit of medical skills~"
Xia Ye picked up the portrait on the table and said calmly, "This should have been painted by you, Miss Noriko. Just by looking at it, you can tell that the painter dislikes this person. So you deeply hate him, right?"
"And what can make a woman endure the pain of forced rehabilitation is either burning love or deep-seated hatred. So, you must be looking for revenge against Kitagawa Fumio, right?"
"you..."
Noriko Okaya's eyes widened in alarm.
She felt as if Xia Ye could see right through her, and that nothing about her could escape his eyes!
"Um, Ms. Noriko—"
Seeing that her expression was off, Yoko Okino quickly reassured her in a soft voice, "Don't worry, since Natsume got your request from Mr. Mori, he'll definitely help you!"
Xia Ye nodded.
Yoko's statement is indeed true.
Now that he's involved, he certainly won't let this incident end up as regrettable as in the original story!
Chapter 325 Killing is actually a very simple thing!
The Cactus Flower Murder Case.
It was one of the cases that Xia Ye found hard to accept back then.
Even Natsume remained calm about Makoto Asai's Tsukikage Island murder case, showing little dissatisfaction beyond a bit of regret.
After all, Makoto Asai had already killed all his enemies; he only committed suicide by burning himself in the fire because he didn't want to live anymore.
Noriko Okaya, despite harboring deep-seated hatred, was ultimately persuaded by a cactus flower and Conan's persuasive words to abandon her revenge.
Isn't that ridiculous?
Hatred isn't so easily erased!
Natsume was thinking that if Ran were hit and killed by someone, and the police couldn't catch the culprit, Conan would probably be even crazier than Noriko Okayani.
He's just applying double standards.
Tell me about it~
Natsume glanced at Noriko Okayani with a faint expression.
"Yoko is right. Now that I've decided to help you, you don't need to worry about anything. I'll take care of everything for you!"
"Miss Yoko?"
Noriko Okaya's attention had been focused on Natsume since she came in, and with Yoko Okino wearing Superman glasses, she paid even less attention. But when she heard Natsume call Yoko Okino's name, she took a closer look and realized that it was none other than the idol Yoko Okino.
"Hello, Ms. Noriko~"
Yoko Okino smiled slightly at Noriko Okayani:
You don't need to worry about me~
"Tell Xia Ye about your situation~"
"it is good!"
Noriko Okaya was filled with hatred.
They were only slightly surprised by Yoko Okino's appearance.
He immediately turned his attention back to revenge.
"This is what happened!"
Six months ago, Noriko Okaya traveled to Shinshu with her boyfriend, whom she was about to marry.
Unexpectedly, there they encountered Kitagawa Fumio and his girlfriend driving around taunting them.
Because of those two people interfering.
Noriko Okaya and her boyfriend were in a serious car accident. Her boyfriend died at the scene, and Noriko Okaya was seriously injured.
However, the two vehicles did not make physical contact.
Noriko Okaya was unable to prove that Fumio Kitagawa and his girlfriend were the culprits, and the police didn't seem to care much, simply stating that they were powerless to do anything.
So at that time, Noriko Okaya concealed Kitagawa Fumio's information and decided to take revenge herself!
After this.
Driven by a belief in revenge.
Despite her severe injuries, she endured months of excruciating pain to complete her rehabilitation training with astonishing willpower.
He didn't care at all even though he was left with hidden injuries all over his body.
Because she never intended to leave herself a way out; she was determined to take those two people down with her!
"So that's it!"
Yoko Okino sighed.
This is indeed a very tragic case.
only--
Tragic as it may be.
Xia Ye doesn't need to care that much, does she?
His murderous aura couldn't help but leak out quite a bit!
"Xia Ye, tone it down a bit~"
Yoko Okino nudged Natsume's arm, reminding her.
I lost my composure a bit.
Xia Ye smiled wryly. He never expected that he had accumulated so much resentment while watching "Detective Conan".
Hearing Noriko Okaya recount his story, a strong murderous intent welled up within him. However, he looked at Noriko Okaya and said:
"Is your revenge simply to kill these two people?"
"what?"
