Capítulo 95: Chapter 95 Kou, just be safe
"Akikawa? Is this the Akikawa artist who almost died at the Imperial Theater last time?"
Megure Juzo heard Sera Masaki's voice and said in shock.
"Yes."
Sera Masumi nodded.
"But how could he know Takao Ohga?"
"Miss Sera, did you forget? Yesterday, Miss Yoko took Akikawa to meet many directors."
"Among them was the table with Takao Ohga!"
Conan remembered.
"But what could be the reason Takao Ohga invited Akikawa? Is it possible that Akikawa also abuses drugs?"
Megure Juzo felt very confused.
"No, that's impossible. Akikawa probably met Takao Ohga yesterday."
Conan denied Megure Juzo's speculations.
He lowered his head, put his fist to his lips, and started thinking.
"Blaming... no, that's not reasonable."
"If we're blaming someone, there are definitely countless more suitable targets than that Akikawa."
"Akikawa seems very weak, and his mental age is also very childish. The police must have seen at a glance that he couldn't have killed someone with a weapon."
"That has nothing to do with Akikawa... He just had bad luck and was chosen as the target."
"After all, he doesn't seem very smart. I'm afraid I could easily trick him by introducing him to the director..."
Conan quickly analyzed that the main purpose of Takao Ohga inviting Akikawa Kyousuke wasn't for Akikawa Kyousuke.
"Why did Takao Ohga invite Akikawa to the private exhibition room of Hotta Yoshitoki when there were so many other places to invite him?"
"Speaking of that, who is Hotta Yoshitoki?"
Just when Conan was confused, he heard a policeman slowly say: "Hotta Yoshitoki is a very famous director. He used to be an actor, but then became a director after suffering facial paralysis due to a medical accident."
"I see!"
Conan immediately connected the incident of Hotta Yoshitoki's facial paralysis with Takao Ohga.
Masumi Sera also guessed the reason and hurriedly said: "I'm afraid Takao Ohga is the doctor who caused Hotta Yoshitoki's facial paralysis back then."
"In other words, Yoshitoki Hotta had a 'motive' for committing the murder of Takao Ohga."
"Maybe Takao Ohga wanted to take advantage of this and tricked Akikawa into entering Hotta Yoshitoki's exhibition room!"
"Akikawa is in danger!"
Sera Masumi said a word and ran off.
Conan also ran after Sera Masumi.
The police who remained in the private exhibition room of Souma Miho were still immersed in the detectives' rapid thoughts and couldn't recover.
They all found it somewhat incomprehensible.
Why do detectives often manage to clarify their ideas in an instant with just a sentence or a small detail?
"What are you doing standing there? Didn't you hear what Sister Sera said?"
"If the killer is really Takao Ohga, then he has a gun!"
"Did you just let a middle school girl and a primary school student go rescue people?"
After hearing Megure Juzo's reprimand, the police quickly realized what they were doing, put on their equipment, and ran off. —— [Select 4, Complete]
[Reward issued: Agility +3, Temporary Skill Card x1]
[Select 5, Complete]
[Reward issued: Specific Card x1]
Akikawa Kousuke, who was walking toward Hotta Yoshitoki's private exhibition room, suddenly heard the sound of the system in his head.
"Turns out the two options can actually be done together."
"In other words, if I use a Temporary Skill Card or a Temporary Feature Card along with a Specific Card, I can choose the skill or feature to use at will."
"It's only been an hour, but it's been quite good."
Akikawa Kyousuke thought in his heart.
As for the other three agility points, Akikawa Kyousuke didn't feel them as strongly as when he gained physical strength.
Maybe it only shows when you exercise.
Soon, Akikawa Kyousuke arrived at Hotta Yoshitoki's private exhibition room.
After seeing the regular visitors in the exhibition room, he knew that Takao Ohga's matters had definitely not been exposed yet.
"Of course, it's impossible to simply expose it."
Akikawa Kousuke wasn't worried at all that Takao Ohga would go out and ask for help after he left.
First, he had been injected with morphine and couldn't shout or move freely. Second, he still needed to endure the strong withdrawal reaction caused by the opioid antagonist naloxone. His physical condition was different from ordinary people to be able to remain conscious, let alone perform strenuous activities.
Third, of course.
Takao Ohga was a drug dealer and had just killed someone with a weapon. Asking for help would accelerate the process of his own arrest.
"Speaking of which, what has Hotta Yoshitoki been doing during this period?"
"If Takao Ohga wants to make sure his plan is executed smoothly, he must ensure that Hotta Yoshitoki doesn't have an alibi during this period."
"In this case, Yoshitoki Hotta must have revealed the itinerary to Takao Ohga in advance."
"So, did Kosaka Tsunekazu not die because of Hotta Yoshitoki?"
While Akikawa Kyousuke thought in his mind, he once again arrived at the door of Hotta Yoshitoki's private room.
He reached out and knocked on the door, then whispered:
"Mr. Ohga, Mr. Hotta, are you here?"
"I'm Kyousuke Akikawa and I have an appointment with Mr. Ohga at one."
Of course, there was no response from inside.
Akikawa Kyousuke knocked on the door again and at the same time raised his voice and shouted again.
But still, there was no movement inside.
After hearing Akikawa Kyousuke's voice, several tourists looked at him in confusion and then continued visiting the exhibition room.
After confirming that there was no response, Akikawa Kyousuke reached out, grabbed the door handle, and prepared to open it.
But as soon as he turned the door handle, he heard hurried footsteps rapidly approaching from behind.
Akikawa Kyousuke instantly became alert and looked back suddenly.
But upon seeing who was coming, he suppressed his subconscious urge to avoid them.
Because the person coming was Okino Yoko.
Okino Yoko grabbed Akikawa Kyousuke's wrist and ran toward it, then dragged him forcefully away from the door.
Okino Yoko and Akikawa Kyousuke hid in front of the wall next to the door of Hotta Yoshitoki's private room. After waiting a moment to confirm there was no movement inside.
Only then, under the surprised gaze of many tourists, Akikawa Kousuke was dragged out of the exhibition room.
"What... what happened?"
Akikawa Kyousuke showed an expression of surprise, as if he was confused by Okino Yoko's sudden appearance.
"Kou, don't you know there was a murder? Why are you still here?"
Okino Yoko didn't answer Akikawa Kyousuke's question, but stared directly at him and asked.
It was only then that Akikawa Kyousuke noticed that Okino Yoko's face had turned pale and that there was still a panic on her beautiful cheeks that hadn't subsided.
'Her pupils are dilated, and her face is pale. She's really scared.'
'My forehead is also sweating. Are you very anxious?'
By observing Okino Yoko's microexpressions, Akikawa Kyousuke judged that Okino Yoko was extremely uncomfortable at that moment.
"Mr. Ohga said he wanted to introduce me to Director Hotta, so I came."
Akikawa Kyousuke avoided Okino Yoko's gaze and softly replied.
In front of him, Okino Yoko's eyes instantly turned red after hearing the words. After not speaking for a long time, she finally swallowed the words that came from her lips.
Okino Yoko sighed deeply, grabbed Akikawa Kyousuke's arms with both hands, and then pressed her head against his chest.
"Kou, just be safe."
Akikawa Kyousuke heard Okino Yoko's sigh of relief, as if she had finally been freed from a thousand-pound burden on her body.
However, Okino Yoko's voice no longer had the same vitality as before.
Instead, it became a cry of obvious guilt.
Akikawa Kyousuke also felt that Okino Yoko's hands that were holding his arms were still trembling.
Tears fell from Okino Yoko's cheeks to the ground, causing many tourists around them to open their eyes.
'She really is a sister who cares about her little brother.'
Akikawa Kyousuke could see that Okino Yoko was truly worried about him.
Even if it meant danger, a person rushed in.
After confirming that it was because of her that Takao Ohga attacked her, she actually felt this guilty.
But--
'How did she know Takao Ohga would be in danger?'
Akikawa Kyousuke looked at Okino Yoko's trembling body in front of him and thought in his heart.
