Genshin Player in the World of Detective Conan Chapter 16

Even Fei Yingli couldn't help but turn her head, looking at her in surprise.

"That's right, it's me." Ono Yoko quickly controlled the shock in her heart, gently took off her sunglasses, revealing her exquisite face, and smiled slightly at the two people in front of her, "I'm very sorry for hiding my identity from you two, but I'm very honored that Miss Kuriyama likes my songs."

Kuriyama Midori looked so excited that Yin Kong couldn't help but wonder if she would drive the car straight onto the sidewalk:

"It's my honor to meet you!"

Fei Yingli also realized that since she was a popular idol, it was no wonder she was dressed so strangely when she went out.

Speaking of which, although she was long past the age of chasing stars, she was not unfamiliar with the name Ono Yoko.

After all, she had heard Mori Ran say that this was the idol Mori Kogoro was most obsessed with now, so she actually harbored some hostility towards this popular idol.

Fei Yingli's gaze quickly fell on Yin Kong, and she couldn't help but start thinking.

If she let Mori Kogoro know that the idol he had been obsessed with actually had a lover in private, would he be deeply traumatized and hide in his room, weeping bitterly?

Of course, such a thought flashed by.

With Fei Yingli's personality, she wouldn't actually do such a thing:

"So, Miss Yoko, don't you really need to go to the hospital first?"

For an idol, accidentally spraining an ankle is no small matter, and if not treated promptly, it can easily affect normal business.

Ono Yoko gently shook her head:

"Let's go back to the apartment first. There seems to have been a murder case there."

Kuriyama Midori exclaimed in shock:

"A murder case?!"

Fei Yingli, however, noticed her choice of words:

Ono Yoko explained:

"That police officer said the situation was very complicated and that he had to be at the scene to explain it clearly."

As they talked, time slipped away quietly.

About twenty minutes later, they arrived at Ono Yoko's apartment building again.

In the sky, the battle between those two behemoths was still ongoing.

Thanks to them, the streets were much quieter, and Yin Kong's "intermittent motion sickness syndrome" did not recur.

"Huh? So many people have been dispatched?"

Fei Yingli was also very surprised to find that the entire apartment building had been sealed off by the police.

She had dealt with murder cases quite a few times, and she knew very well that if it were just an ordinary murder case, at most, only the room where the murder occurred and possibly related rooms would be sealed off.

Such a scene was truly extraordinary.

Yin Kong's gaze shifted, as he quickly spotted two familiar figures: Sato Miwako and Takagi Wataru, whom he had met by chance at the ramen shop not long ago.

Seeing Yin Kong waving at them from a distance, the two of them were clearly very surprised:

"Yin Kong, what are you doing here?"

Yin Kong helped the mobility-impaired Ono Yoko out of the car and explained:

"Simply put, Miss Yoko has some business dealings with our Cunning Rabbit House."

"Miss Yoko? It really is you!" Takagi exclaimed excitedly, "I was just thinking if it was just a simple case of the same name..."

"Takagi, pay attention, it's official business time." Sato coughed lightly, calming her excited subordinate before saying in a serious tone, "Miss Yoko, we found two, well, remains in your apartment. Are you aware of this?"

Ono Yoko had clearly rehearsed this countless times in her mind, so her reaction at this moment was very natural: confusion, bewilderment, and a hint of worry:

"Remains? Officer Sato, could you please be more specific? I don't quite understand."

Sato Miwako pondered:

"It might be difficult to explain with words alone. We'll take you to the scene to see. However, you'd better be mentally prepared beforehand, those remains are very gruesome."

Takagi nodded vigorously beside her. It was said that many of their colleagues had vomited on the spot after seeing the scene.

Ono Yoko's face immediately turned pale. Others might not have a strong sense of it yet, but she had personally witnessed how Ikezawa Yuko and Yamagishi Ei were brutally killed by monsters and then sucked dry.

The terrifying images that she had deliberately suppressed in the depths of her mind and tried her best not to recall now clearly reappeared in her mind.

"Excuse me, can Mr. Yin Kong accompany me?"

Ono Yoko couldn't help but hold Yin Kong tighter, as if only by doing so could she feel a sense of security.

Yin Kong could naturally feel the fear in the heart of the popular idol, and he reached out and gently patted her shoulder, saying softly:

"Don't be afraid, I'm here."

Under his comfort, Ono Yoko's body finally began to relax, but the fear deep in her eyes still couldn't completely dissipate.

"Of course."

Sato and Takagi naturally wouldn't think too much of it, only assuming that Ono Yoko was generally timid—

This was not at all strange.

However, while nodding, Sato Miwako also quietly gave Yin Kong a thumbs-up. Her expression clearly indicated:

I never expected you, with your honest face, to secretly hook up with a popular idol.

Yin Kong was at a loss for an appropriate expression to respond.

"Oh, Lawyer Fei is coming too?"

Yin Kong was also a little surprised to find Fei Yingli getting on the elevator with them.

Fei Yingli nodded gently:

"I'm actually a bit curious."

In reality, she just vaguely felt that Ono Yoko's behavior was a little off.

Because she had learned from Kuriyama Midori that this popular idol had hosted several haunted house shows and shouldn't be such a timid person.

Besides, she was also curious just how terrifying Sato Miwako's definition of "terrifying" really was.

On this point, Fei Yingli was quite confident.

After all, she wasn't inexperienced with bizarre murder cases. No matter how unusual this case was, could it still scare her?

Chapter 24 Suspects

"Why don't I see Inspector Megure? Isn't he usually in charge of these kinds of cases?"

Sato Miwako looked at Fei Yingli in surprise and explained:

"That's true, but Inspector Megure is currently handling another case and can't get away. So, we'll be responsible for inspecting the scene and collecting evidence for now…"

As expected of Beika Town, a place where talent and spirits gather. It must be tough on Inspector Megure, perhaps running to eight crime scenes a day.

"Miss, do you know Inspector Megure?"

Fei Yingli nodded gently:

"We've worked together many times; we're old acquaintances."

As they spoke, the elevator quickly arrived.

The moment the elevator stopped, Yin Kong felt Ono Yoko's hand grip his tightly again.

Even though it was the familiar entrance to the apartment, it now seemed like a monstrous beast, filling her with dread.

Yin Kong gently held her palm, helping to dispel the fear in her heart.

Noticing this, Fei Yingli frowned slightly but didn't speak. Instead, she silently followed everyone towards the crime scene.

Everything here was almost exactly the same as when Yin Kong had teleported away.

The overturned coffee table, the messy walls, the ground covered in blood and organs with a strong smell of gore, and—

two horrifyingly disfigured remains.

Even the experienced forensic personnel clearly had never seen such an unbelievable crime scene.

Aside from disgust and discomfort, their faces also showed lingering shock.

Because even the most amateur observer could see the strangeness of these two corpses.

One was cut in half at the waist, and the other had a large hole in its chest. Apart from the bones, the flesh and organs inside had almost completely vanished, leaving only a thin layer of skin.

Although their facial features were still roughly intact, they were twisted into ghastly and terrifying shapes, extremely horrifying.

Ono Yoko let out a frightened gasp and buried her head in Yin Kong's chest, unable to look any further.

Yin Kong also stared at the wide-open eyes of the two corpses, as if hearing their final screams before death…

In the silence, Fei Yingli suddenly covered her mouth and quickly ran out.

This renowned lawyer wasn't usually so fragile, but unfortunately, her lunch today had been fatty beef. Seeing this scene, she felt her entire stomach churning.

Sato, clearly experienced, immediately shouted towards the door:

"Kosaka, get her a bag!"

Shaking her head with a sympathetic look, Sato turned back, took out paper and pen, and composed herself before asking:

"So, Miss Yoko, do you recognize these two deceased?"

Ono Yoko hesitantly raised her head, glanced at the corpses, and then whispered, "I… I recognize them. This is Mr. Yamagishi and Miss Yuko, but how could they…?"

Sato wasn't surprised, as they had already identified the two victims:

"We are still investigating the specific details. So, Miss Yoko, do you have any leads regarding their appearance and death in your apartment?"

Ono Yoko hesitated:

"This…"

"Regarding this question, I'll explain."

Yin Kong patted her back and interjected, "This morning, Miss Yoko and I met Mr. Yamagishi at a coffee shop. Because Miss Yoko suspected she was being followed, she asked me to investigate."

Then, while we were splitting up, we found some evidence related to Ms. Yuko, so we agreed to meet her tomorrow.

I just didn't expect Mr. Yamagishi to meet Ms. Yuko at Ms. Ono's apartment first, and then suffer such a cruel fate."

"Ms. Ono felt like she was being followed?" Sato was stunned at first, then a look of pleasant surprise appeared on her face. "Can you tell me more details?"

Compared to the harmless Ms. Ono, this was clearly the one they should be suspicious of.

Especially after Yin Kong briefly recounted Ono Yoko's experience and produced the photos and curse letter he carried with him.

Although the deaths of the two victims did not completely match the curse in the letter, their tragic nature was comparable.

Takagi suddenly understood and analyzed:

"So, Mr. Yamagishi and Ms. Yuko met secretly in Ms. Ono's apartment for some reason, and accidentally ran into the stalker, and then they were brutally murdered by the perpetrator?"

"Officer Sato! We've found a suspicious man."

Just as Sato was also nodding slightly, thinking that Takagi's analysis seemed reasonable, she heard a colleague's report over the walkie-talkie.

"A suspicious man, could it be the stalker? Shiratori, quickly bring him up."

Not only Sato and Takagi were pleasantly surprised, but Ono Yoko also couldn't help but look up in astonishment.

The stalker, wasn't that Ikezawa Yuko?

Then who was discovered by the police now?

Soon, the suspicious man was brought up.

He was a burly young man with a very gloomy expression, no wonder he attracted the attention of the patrol officers.

Upon seeing them, the young man immediately exclaimed with a look of surprise:

However, his surprised expression quickly froze on his face.

Because he was shocked to discover that Ono Yoko was currently leaning affectionately against Yin Kong.
