Conan: Becoming the Boss Starting with Winning Over Ran

Page 19

After completing their most in-depth exchange and swapping partners for the first time, Kujou Hitomi seemed to have completely opened up.

She no longer maintained her outward appearance of gentleness; her words and actions always revealed a cunning and seductive quality.

"of course can."

Despite Kujou Hitomi's feigned sorrow and pitifulness, Hoshimiya Yu remained unmoved.

"Now that's all done, I'll head back."

Anyway, he wasn't at a disadvantage, and since Kujou Hitomi didn't say anything, he was happy to have an easy time.

Sure enough, seeing Hoshimiya Yu get up to put on his pants, Kujou Hitomi quickly stopped him, saying, "Mr. Hoshimiya is really heartless. I'll tell you what I mean."

Xing Gongyu stopped what he was doing; he didn't want to be so heartless as to actually pull the strings.

However, when dealing with a woman like Kujou Hitomi, it's essential to maintain a firm grip on the initiative.

He realized that this seemingly gentle and kind gymnastics beauty was actually a cunning and ruthless person at heart.

“Kishida… is the man I wanted to kill that day.”

Kujou Hitomi organized her thoughts for a moment, then said in a shocking way, "I still killed him. His body is in the bathroom now."

Hoshimiya Yu: ...? ? ?

No wonder I didn't let him take a bath; there was such a big 'surprise' inside.

Hoshimiya Yu's vision is now far beyond that of ordinary people, but her sense of smell is still the same as that of ordinary people.

Separated by several doors, they had no idea there was a corpse in the bathroom.

"Farewell."

Although I knew that using a honey trap would definitely lead to trouble, I didn't expect it to be this troublesome.

Even if Kujou Hitomi was his first woman, he would never do something as foolish as taking the blame for her—only someone with a love-struck mind would do that.

Not to mention that the two of them don't have any feelings for each other now; it's just a one-night stand at most.

"Don't worry, I don't want you to take the blame for me."

Kujou Hitomi rolled her eyes at Hoshimiya Yu and said calmly, "Nobody knows Kishida is dead right now. I'm in a hurry to find you because I want to experience the pleasures of sex before I get arrested, and also because I want to ask if you have any way to help me avoid being caught by the police."

"what happened?"

After a brief moment of shock, Hoshiguma Yu gradually calmed down.

During this time, he participated in many cases with the Grim Reaper Elementary School Student and saw quite a few dead people.

My ability to accept this kind of thing has greatly improved.

He even mentally rehearsed the scene of personally killing someone after confronting the distillery more than once.

Because unless he doesn't give up his ambition to live forever, sleep with beautiful women, and wield power over the world, he will inevitably clash with the winery sooner or later.

Seeing that Hoshigumi Yu accepted it so quickly and that her inner thoughts were not shaken at all by the fact that she had just slept with him, Kujou Hitomi's eyes lit up.

He was indeed the first man she had feelings for in all these years.

“I was planning to kill Kishida on the roller coaster that day, but you stopped me. I was about to give up, but then…”

After listening to Kujou Hitomi's explanation, Hoshimiya Yu roughly understood what had happened.

Just as he had predicted, the relationship between Kujou Hitomi and Kishida was completely different from what he remembered.

To put it simply, Kujou Hitomi was harassed by the blond-haired Kishida when she was in high school, and no matter how much she refused, it was no use.

In order to obtain Kujou Hitomi, the blond-haired Kishida used many methods.

He tried all sorts of despicable methods, such as drugging and forcing himself, but the cunning Kujou Hitomi saw through his schemes in advance and failed to succeed.

But Huang Mao Kishida was still not giving up and started to act as a persistent pest.

No matter what Kujou Hitomi does, except when she goes home, he always follows her, preventing her from having a normal social life and from engaging in any recreational activities except for attending classes.

Even gymnastics, which they had been practicing regularly, was unable to be used for competitions.

Kujou Hitomi was once unable to live a normal life, and her mental state began to deteriorate. She almost committed suicide by taking sleeping pills.

Having finally made it to university, Kujou Hitomi thought she could finally live a normal life.

Unexpectedly, thanks to his family connections, Huang Mao Kishida also got into the same university.

This time, Kishida, the blond-haired guy, was smarter. He no longer openly interfered with Kujou Hitomi's life, but secretly kept making things difficult for her.

This is even more disgusting than doing it openly.

This time, Kujou Hitomi could no longer tolerate it. Between suicide and murder, she chose to send the other person to their death.

They even specifically planned the roller coaster incident for this purpose.

Kishida, the blond-haired man, thought his scheme had finally succeeded and that Kujou Hitomi was about to give in.

He still harbored fantasies of taking a delinquent girl out for a threesome that night.

If it weren't for Hoshimiya Yu's intervention, Kishida, the blond-haired guy, would have experienced the joy of takeoff on the roller coaster before nightfall.

However, only the big head took off.

As a result, after being stunned by Kujou Hitomi's outburst, the blond-haired Kishida probably became angrier the more he thought about it, and within a few days he began to target Kujou Hitomi even more aggressively.

Needless to say, he's now dead.

The one who made the move was Kujou Hitomi.

The method is also very simple.

Kujou Hitomi said she agreed, invited the blond guy to her house, and then prepared potassium cyanide in advance.

Potassium cyanide, the most prominent poison in the world of Detective Conan.

The minimum lethal dose is the size of a grain of rice.

Just a few grams mixed into beverages and food, especially beverages, can be fatal to someone who drinks just one sip.

Huang Mao Kishida was so happy that he was completely unaware of the danger.

He never imagined that Kujou Hitomi, who seemed gentle and easy to bully, was actually a ruthless person.

In theory, potassium cyanide, a highly toxic substance, is not easy to obtain, but in the world of Detective Conan, it's not exactly ubiquitous, but it's not too difficult to acquire either.

026 System Upgrade

After listening to Kujou Hitomi's account, Hoshimiya Yu subconsciously recalled the previous dinner and couldn't help but swallow.

This world is so dangerous...

Seemingly sensing what Hoshimiya Yu was thinking, Kujou Hitomi said irritably, "What are you thinking? I'm not a pervert who would kill people for no reason."

Xing Gongyu nodded, but inwardly he disagreed.

You're not a pervert, but people in this world are more prone to emotional outbursts and extremes.

Kujou Hitomi is clearly one of them.

Kishida the Yellow-haired man is indeed a beast, but there are many ways to solve this problem of being harassed for so long.

Murder is the most extreme form of this.

Hoshimiya Yu couldn't possibly put all her eggs in one basket with Kujou Hitomi.

Now that the two are in a relationship, he's really afraid that Kujou Hitomi might one day have a moment of madness and poison him too.

We must upgrade our drug resistance as soon as possible!

Ideally, you should upgrade to red level in one go and get a talent like immunity to all poisons.

"Last time you had a plan for how to get away with it, but you don't have one this time?"

Hoshigumi Yu changed the subject and asked the question herself.

He wouldn't mind helping Kujou Hitomi get off the hook; he didn't care how many of Kishida's kind died.

Unfortunately, Kujou Hitomi's actions this time were clearly impulsive; the body is still lying in the bathroom, let alone providing an alibi.

Therefore, Hoshigumi Yu couldn't think of any good solutions for the time being.

"You still have the nerve to bring up last time?" Kujou Hitomi said angrily, "You ruined my perfect murder and framing plan."

"If the plan succeeds, the police will never be able to trace it back to me."

"The police can't see through your methods, but a detective can."

Hoshimiya Yu pouted and said, "The person I sat with that day was none other than the now-famous high school detective, Shinichi Kudo."

"Is that the guy who, like you, peeked at my thighs and found out I'm a gymnast?"

After thinking for a moment, Kujou Hitomi exclaimed in surprise.

Shinichi Kudo is now hailed as the savior of the Tokyo police, and news reports about him frequently appear in newspapers. Hitomi Kujo naturally understands the significance of this.

If it were the other person, she wouldn't be entirely confident of getting away with it.

"Correct."

Xing Gongyu reached out and pinched the mark on the other person's soft thigh, teasingly saying, "If I hadn't stopped you, you would probably be living a carefree life now, with no worries about food or drink and never having to leave the house."

Kujou Hitomi was stunned for a moment before realizing that Hoshimiya Yu was subtly implying that she would be arrested and imprisoned.

Recalling their first encounter, Kujou Hitomi felt her body heating up again.

She quickly changed the subject, asking curiously, "Speaking of which, how did you find out that I wanted to kill someone that day?"

Hoshimiya Yu naturally couldn't say that she had watched anime.

However, he had already thought about how to answer the question, since he initially thought that his meeting with Kujou Hitomi would be about this matter.

"It's not that I discovered you wanted to kill someone, it's just that your behavior seemed a bit strange."

Hoshimiya Yu stroked her chin, pretending to be thinking seriously.

“My eyesight is just slightly better than normal. Although it was very dark in the tunnel, I could still vaguely see a little, and I was also keeping an eye on you…”

What kind of answers and ideas are most likely to be believed by people?

That is the answer obtained by deducing step by step to form a complete closed logical chain!

So Hoshimiya Yu only told half of it, leaving the rest for Kujou Hitomi to fill in the blanks herself.

As expected, Kujou Hitomi quickly accepted this explanation.

She herself could make such outrageous movements in the pitch-black tunnel, so what if Hoshigumi Yu had better eyesight and could see?

Seeing her actions, it's easy to deduce that she wanted to kill someone.

Having satisfied Kujou Hitomi's curiosity, it was Hoshimiya Yu's turn to ask a question this time.

"Enough about me. I'd like to know what you plan to do if you succeed in killing someone that day, but your method is discovered."

"What else can we do but play the victim and try to get leniency?"

Kujou Hitomi looked completely indifferent.

After killing Kishida, she felt a sense of liberation. It would be best if she could get away with her crime and start a new life; if not, the worst that could happen was going to prison.

It's better than being tormented every day, leading to insomnia, anxiety, and eventually depression and suicidal thoughts.

In her memory, the relationship between Kujou Hitomi and the blond-haired Kishida was entirely based on Kujou Hitomi's side of the story after the murder plot was exposed.

No one around Kujou Hitomi knew that the two had ever dated.

Upon closer inspection, it simply doesn't make sense.

Not to mention that Kujou Hitomi is still a virgin, and her first kiss was just taken by Hoshimiya Yu.

Now Hoshimiya Yu roughly understands why the other party said that.

It's nothing more than an attempt to gain sympathy and secure a lighter sentence after the truth has come out.

This makes sense and is very much in line with Kujou Hitomi's personality.

Indeed, many things in my memory are one-sided.

The events themselves are alright, but the people involved cannot be judged entirely based on memories.

"You've gone off on a tangent. Do you actually have a solution?"
