Ruri Amagi's Attitude

Although these places are not described in great detail.

But Jiang Hang still knows Kogoro Mouri very well.

If Conan and Ran were here, he could restrain himself, but now that neither of them are present, Kogoro Mouri is easily swayed by beautiful women, will definitely appear very lewd in the eyes of others.

Although Kogoro Mouri always manages to stop at the last minute in the story, Jiang Hang can tell that Amashiro Ruri clearly has a lot of affection for Kogoro Mouri.

Moreover, she is already 36 or 37 years old and has never officially announced a relationship. She doesn't even have many rumors, which is why she is said to be following a healing route.

Isn't this a classic "loser" character from a school anime?

Moreover, she's the kind of ultimate loser who, despite having already suffered a complete defeat, still remains single or even unmarried for life for the male protagonist even after the story's ending.

Therefore, to prevent Kogoro Mouri from facing his second major Asura Arena in his middle age, Jiang Hang, as a warrior of pure love, felt it was best to intervene in advance and stop it all.

You seem to feel like you've been "sleeping" less lately, and you also think your daughter is even more amazing than you.

Since they're not here right now, let me let you experience what it's like to be asleep.

Seeing Jiang Hang suddenly attack Kogoro Mouri, Shizuka Sakaki and Koharu Yoshino looked shocked.

What's going on?

Jiang Hang was just guiding Kogoro Mouri through the deduction, so why did Jiang Hang suddenly turn against Kogoro Mouri after Kogoro Mouri finally figured out the truth?

A whole host of random guesses, such as the rivalry between famous detectives, instantly popped into the two girls' heads.

If they hadn't known Jiang Hang for so long and knew that what Jiang Hang had just shot was just a regular Tranquilizer Dart, they would have suspected that Jiang Hang was trying to kill them to cover it up.

Jiang Hang then took out a Button Voice Amplifier produced by Professor Agasa from a hidden pocket at his waist.

This thing has a simple function: it can perfectly reproduce the speaker's voice quality, and at the same time, it can affect other people's hearing to a certain extent, thus changing the sound localization.

By attaching it to the inside of Kogoro Mouri's collar or even his pants, you can adjust the settings to make it sound like the voice is coming from Kogoro Mouri.

Don't be fooled by Conan's usual behavior of simply knocking out Kogoro Mouri with Tranquilizer Dart and then "openly" standing behind Kogoro Mouri with his Bowtie Voice Changer to solve cases.

But in reality, the function of his Bowtie Voice Changer has been updated and iterated several times, and his current voice changer has the same function.

Basically, as long as Conan stands within half a meter of Kogoro Mouri with the Bowtie Voice Changer, it's very difficult for others to discern the true location of the voice.

It can only be said that Professor Agasa truly deserves to be called a black technology inventor; the things he creates are all incredibly impressive.

However, due to various factors, no one values the technological products that can truly change the world, and Professor Agasa can only rely on conventional research to earn research funding.

However, while others might look down on those things, Jiang Hang would.

After easing his own financial pressures, Jiang Hang began investing half of the funds he had that he couldn't find a use for at the moment into Miyano Shiho and Professor Agasa.

Now, whatever new things Professor Agasa has researched, whether they're useful or not, will be set aside for Jiang Hang to investigate when he returns.

Besides these things, Jiang Hang also has quite a few gadgets in his own office.

In short, after casually sticking the Button Voice Amplifier onto Kogoro Mouri and adjusting the settings, Jiang Hang turned to look at Shizuka Sakaki and Koharu Yoshino.

"Who among you knows Kogoro Mouri better?"

Koharu Yoshino stretched out her hand in a daze, indicating that she had dealt with Kogoro Mouri more often.

"Okay, then you can do it."

He handed a small microphone to Koharu Yoshino.

"Then you'll play the role of Sleeping Kogoro later."

Shizuka Sakaki and Koharu Yoshino have been working for him for almost half a year.

Although the two girls don't know much about the Black Organization yet.

But after so much time, their abilities have gradually caught up.

Especially Koharu Yoshino, who probably already knew what kind of person Kogoro Mouri was.

Rather than letting them continue to have doubts about these things, it's about time to tell them some things so they can be a little more prepared.

"Huh?"

"I'll play... Sleeping Kogoro?" Koharu Yoshino pointed to herself, looking extremely surprised.

What exactly does Jiang Hang mean by guiding Kogoro Mouri to solve the case, and then having her pretend to be the Sleeping Kogoro?

She could understand what the other person was saying, but she still couldn't understand what they meant.

But her reaction speed is still quite fast.

Upon hearing the words "playing, "Koharu Yoshino seemed to realize something.

It seems that Kogoro Mouri earned the nickname "Sleeping Kogoro" because he always looked like he was asleep when he was doing deductions.

Previously, Koharu Yoshino and the others were somewhat curious about how such reasoning while asleep could be accomplished.

Looking at it now, could it be that Kogoro Mouri was drugged with Tranquilizer Dart from the very beginning, and then these fancy-looking devices were used to have someone else do the deductions for him?

But this creates new problems.

If Jiang Hang was responsible for this, then there were many times when the Sleeping Kogoro appeared that Jiang Hang wasn't even there, and the two of them weren't even in the same city. So who were those Sleeping Kogoro?

Koharu Yoshino thought of the exceptionally intelligent little boy, Conan Edogawa, who seemed to have a pretty good relationship with Jiang Hang.

It seems that Jiang Hang met the other person when he first arrived in Japan. Later, he found out that the other person was the son of one of his friends, so he invited the other person to visit the Pioneer Detective Agency often.

Moreover, Professor Agasa, who is always able to tinker with a bunch of strange gadgets, also made a lot of self-defense gadgets for Conan's safety.

But soon, Koharu Yoshino dismissed this guess.

After all, everyone knows that Conan is just a first-grader. No matter how smart he is, he can't possibly be that smart.

Koharu Yoshino still had some doubts about this.

But besides Conan, who else would do such a thing?

It couldn't possibly be Kogoro Mouri's daughter, could it?

Thinking about this, she suddenly remembered.

It seems that Kogoro Mouri's daughter has a childhood friend who grew up with her and is also a very famous high school detective.

Just like Heiji Hattori, who has a good relationship with Jiang Hang now.

She quickly thought of the other person's name.

That's right, it's Shinichi Kudo.

He also has a good relationship with Conan and is Professor Agasa's neighbor.

From every angle, he seems to be the most suspicious person.

Before she joined Jiang Hang's firm, she would occasionally see news in various media outlets and newspapers about cases that he had solved.

For some reason, it seems that the other party encountered a very difficult case, which forced them to temporarily suspend their studies. They have not appeared in front of the public for quite some time now.

We don't know what kind of case the other party encountered.

But what if he had been secretly lurking around Kogoro Mouri all along, with Professor Agasa's gadgets as a help?

If it's really that difficult, why didn't he ask Jiang Hang or someone else for help, instead of choosing to help Kogoro Mouri become a famous detective?

Or is there something else going on here?

Koharu Yoshino couldn't figure these things out for a moment.

But looking at the expectant look in Jiang Hang's eyes...

"After this case is closed, you will tell us the truth, right?"

Jiang Hang smiled.

"As long as you don't give yourself away, I can answer many of your questions from the past six months."

Koharu Yoshino and Shizuka Sakaki exchanged a glance.

Indeed, during their six months as assistants, they learned a lot, but they also sensed that Jiang Hang seemed to have many secrets outside the firm that they didn't know about.

However, because of his status as the heir to the Pioneer Foundation, they were too embarrassed to ask Jiang Hang about these things.

So, have they now passed the previous probationary periods and are they about to truly become Jiang Hang's "confidantes"?

Six months ago, they might have had some reservations.

Especially Shizuka Sakaki.

Originally, she only saw this place as a high-paying part-time job, and with the personal guidance of the famous detective, it was a place where she could realize her dream of becoming a voice actress.

But after half a year, she realized many things and learned more valuable knowledge that she might never have learned in her entire life.

Although she still cherishes the dream of becoming a voice actress, this obsession stems more from a promise she made with her friends during middle school.

Now, without a doubt, with Jiang Hang's help, she has achieved in just half a year what countless new voice actors have struggled to reach in years or even longer.

As long as she has her own ideas, given her current abilities and Jiang Hang's background, more than 70% of the works on the market would welcome her.

If she says a word, a whole host of radio program proposals tailored specifically for her will pop up for her to choose from.

But it was precisely because her original dream was so easily achieved with Jiang Hang's help that she felt she owed Jiang Hang even more.

Regardless, Shizuka Sakaki has made up her mind to stay here, to fulfill the rest of her dreams, and to continue working as Jiang Hang's assistant at the agency.

Therefore, Shizuka Sakaki nodded without hesitation, indicating that if Koharu Yoshino felt she couldn't do it well, then she could do it.

Although she didn't interact with Kogoro Mouri as many times Koharu Yoshino, she was indeed more talented in acting than Koharu Yoshino.

She was confident that her acting skills would not reveal any flaws.

However, Koharu Yoshino would not admit defeat at this point.

She stayed at Jiang Hang's office not only because she wanted to find her purpose in Tokyo, but also because she hoped to become more special.

In fact, her wish had already been fulfilled.

In this respect, she is actually much more pure than Shizuka Sakaki.

"Let me do it. I've seen plenty of guys with this kind of middle-aged personality when I was working at a convenience store."

"And I'd also really like to experience what it's like to impersonate Sleeping Kogoro."

Koharu Yoshino quickly took the microphone from Jiang Hang and then tried to change her voice to resemble Kogoro Mouri's.

Indeed, due to their initial talents and personal preferences, one of them pursued disguise, while the other pursued voice alteration.

However, they had already spent half a year training in the agency, and with the added support of a level four agency, they had long since mastered the skills in another direction.

After slightly adjusting his voice and tone, Kogoro Mouri had fallen asleep due to the Tranquilizer Dart, spoke again.

Shizuka Sakaki listened carefully for a while, and only after realizing that her ears couldn't hear anything wrong did she sigh with some regret.

"Then Shizuka, you should go and, as Mori-san wishes, summon Ms. Amashiro Ruri and Akira Nagumo in his name."

As he said this, Jiang Hang looked at Koharu Yoshino with a questioning gaze, asking if there was anything he didn't understand about the case.

"There shouldn't be any problems." The entire course of the case and the methods used had already been reconstructed through their conversation with Kogoro Mouri. She just needed to reconstruct the case using Kogoro Mouri's tone.

"That Ms. Ruri must be the Kazami Yoshiki mentioned when he threatened Akira Nagumo. That's why Mr. Mori wanted to find Ms. Ruri to ask for the reason."

Koharu Yoshino sighed with a touch of melancholy.

It seems that no one expected that the healing-type female celebrity would choose to have a secret relationship with someone as old as Akira Nagumo, who is old enough to be her father.

"Then you've misunderstood their relationship. They're not lovers. If you'd noticed the way she looked at Kogoro Mouri, and the way that Akira Nagumo looked at Kogoro Mouri, you'd know that's the kind of look a father-in-law would give when scrutinizing his son-in-law."

Chapter 528: Chapter 524: Amashiro Ruri's Attitude

Upon hearing Jiang Hang's explanation, Koharu Yoshino was taken aback for a moment.

"Ah?"

Although she had previously felt that the age difference between the two of them was enough to make them look like father and daughter, she didn't understand why Amashiro Ruri would be with someone like that.

But now that Jiang Hang has actually told her that the two of them are indeed father and daughter, isn't that relationship a bit too complicated?

After arriving at the film set, she thoroughly investigated the identities of the suspects.

First, Akira Nagumo is 60 years old this year, while his son, Nobuharu Nagumo, is 31 years old.

Then there's Amashiro Ruri.

As Kogoro Mouri's classmate, she is naturally the same age as Kogoro Mouri this year.
