In the world of Detective Conan, however, he was bound to the Naruto System.

Chapter 128 The Classic Two Years Ago

Chapter 128 The Classic Two Years Ago

While playing cards, everyone chatted, and Xiaolan exclaimed in surprise, "So you're all members of the same yacht club!"

Yuji Nikaido, who looked somewhat like a simplified version of an adult Hakuba Saguru, nodded and said, "Yes, we used to often take Reika's yacht to play on the nearby islands. Those were really happy times."

Takuya Mifune took the juice from Granny Mi and glanced at Nikaido, who was full of emotion: "Yes, those were really happy times, but things have changed since that incident two years ago."

As the keyword "two years ago" popped into his head, Amuro Tooru, who had just wiped the note off his face, felt an even stronger sense of unease.

The others, including the gentle and kind Granny Mi, were all rendered speechless by this chattering genius, but Takuya Mifune was clearly unaware of this.

"What? What happened two years ago?"

Sonoko Suzuki broke the silence and asked a question in a very casual manner.

"That's all in the past—"

Faced with Sonoko Suzuki, whom he also couldn't afford to offend, Nikaido could only laugh it off.

Meanwhile, Takashi Ichigo, seeing Takuya Mifune's nonchalant expression, advised, "Didn't we agree not to bring up that time again?"

Seeing that the group still wanted to know more, Rokuda Masashi quickly changed the subject:

"Strange, why did it take Miss Lihua so long to change her clothes?"

Perhaps because the young lady was gone, the atmosphere was much more relaxed. Apart from knowing that Akutagawa Hiko was doomed, everyone noticed that they hadn't seen her for a while.

"Could something have happened?"

Regarding Gojou's concern for Yotsuba Reika, the chatty genius Mifune Taku scoffed, "To hell with her, I've had enough of her spoiled princess attitude."

Akutagawa Hiko thought that this Mr. Mifune was quite gifted in prophecy; after all, he had predicted the future of the Yotsui family's daughter.

They are indeed on the road to death.

Under the leadership of Rokuda Shoji, all the members of the sycophantic group except for Mifune Takuya were mobilized to search for the missing Yotsuki Reika in the other rooms.

Of course, Granny Nanao, whose surname contains the number seven, also went to Yotsubi Reika's room to look for someone.

Kogoro Mouri and his group didn't move. Too many people would only cause trouble, and they weren't familiar with the villa with its many rooms.

Normal people are prone to getting lost, and Xiaolan is also somewhat directionally challenged.

Looking at the group of sycophants who had scattered to search for the missing young lady, Akutagawa Hiko casually remarked, "Don't you guys feel a strange sense of déjà vu?"

As they talked, Akutagawa Hiko, Ran, and Conan focused their attention on Suzuki Sonoko, who was practicing drawing cards.

"Hey, why are you all looking at me? My hair is a mess!"

After saying that, he reached out and touched the expensive hairstyle that Gin might instinctively shoot at.

"No, it's probably just a coincidence."

Amuro Tooru timely asked, "What are you talking about? What do you mean by 'déjà vu'?"

Xiao Lan shuddered. Although some time had passed, those horrific pieces of corpse seemed to be right before her eyes.

"It was a case we encountered when Sonoko invited us to her sister's villa."

Mentioning this, Sonoko Suzuki also remembered, rubbing her hands which were breaking out in goosebumps: "No—no way, Yotsui—"

."

Sonoko Suzuki suddenly stopped, because she also realized that although the current scene was not exactly the same as that time, the fact that it was "two years ago" was so full of stories made it hard not to think about it.

She simply disliked this spoiled brat, but she never intended for her to die like this.

Conan, however, did not think it was just a coincidence. He knew how sharp Akutagawa Hikaru's intuition was. Just recently, on the set of Gomera, he had stopped a murder that was brewing.

Amuro Tooru's gaze might suddenly sharpen, because the sycophant group and Granny Mi have returned, while Yotsui Reika is still nowhere to be seen.

"She didn't wander into the woods alone, did she? She could easily get lost."

"Ichiji Takashi said with distress."

He said that not because he cared much about Miss Lihua.

In fact, he hated Sibing Lihua to the core.

Today, in addition to making Yotsuba Reika experience being slowly submerged in water and eventually drowning in despair, he also plans to kill Nikaido Yuuji, who is in cahoots with Yotsuba Reika.

However, it would be difficult to make a move inside the villa, and in a head-on confrontation, he might not necessarily be able to defeat a grown man.

Therefore, he planned to lure everyone outside, then take Nikaido to the fountain alone, and ambush him from behind to drown him.

This was also part of his plan to get away with murder.

Like most murderers in the world of Detective Conan, he wanted to kill to avenge his beloved Yaeko, but he also didn't want to be punished by law.

Therefore, he devised a meticulous plan.

Based on his understanding of the other true simps, after he suggested that this bitch, Yotsubi Reika, might be lost in the woods, someone would definitely say they would go into the woods to look for her.

Even if others don't say it, Nikaido Yuuji, who colludes with Yoshino Reika, will definitely say it.

If no one else speaks up, and he, this "sycophant," brings it up, how can the others remain unperturbed? After all, no one can rule out the possibility that this is a test set up by Shibing Lihua.

However, without anyone else needing to speak, Kogoro Mouri, whose sense of justice had never been worn down by time, suggested that everyone split up and go into the woods to look for the missing Yotsuki Reika.

"Sonoko, it's really inconvenient for you to go outside in this outfit. You and Ran should stay in the villa."

Kogoro Mori chimed in, "Akutagawa is right. Ran should stay here too, in case Miss Yotsuki comes back and can't find her. Aunt Mi should stay as well; we men can go look for her."

As for Conan...

He clung to Akutagawa Hiko's leg and wouldn't let go. Without some real skill, Kogoro Mori wouldn't be able to tear this enhanced accessory off.

Left with no other choice, I had to take him with me.

Once they entered the woods and parted ways with the others, Akutagawa Hiko joked, "Why aren't you sticking to Ran anymore?"

Conan rolled his eyes so hard they almost reached the sky: "I don't have that on my mind right now, let's find Ms. Yoshii first."

The two of them simultaneously turned on the flashlights on their watches. Unlike Conan's earnest search, Akutagawa Hiko, knowing there would be no results, was very indifferent.

It looks like it's about to rain.

Akutagawa looked up at the sky, which was overcast and dark, with no starlight or moonlight in sight, and the air was damp.

"Go back and get your umbrella before you come out to look again."

After weighing the pros and cons, Conan made a suggestion.
