-155- I don't play games, I make rules(1/2)
Shirakawa Yu understands what Kudo Yusaki wants to say.
It's nothing more than a doubt that he is the "master behind the scenes".
In past cases, the process of Yu Shirakawa's crime was perfect.
Either kill someone with a knife, watch the fire from the other side of the river, or instigate Wuhen instigates crime in intelligence transactions, or incarnates as a black tiger Afu, using supernatural abilities and swaggering crimes.
However, these death cases have a strange commonality.
That is, in the end, except for the beneficiaries in the legal process, the biggest beneficiaries will always be Yu Shirakawa.
There is no evidence to accuse Yu Shirakawa of committing crimes...but everything is too coincidental.
It was so coincidental.
Even in many cases, Yu Shirakawa is just a passerby, but has collected a large amount of intelligence fees from the deceased, etc.
It seems that the meaning of the existence of this deceased is to be squeezed out by Shirakawa Yuu, and then thrown away like a torn rag.
The subtle investigation results are connected together, forming a direct suspicion of Shirakawa Yuu.
——This is the existence of a sophisticated and keen monster like Yusaku Kudo. It is impossible for a normal detective to discover such insignificant details.
...even if it's Conan.
But Yu Shirakawa was not at all panicked about this.
As long as he does not confess his guilt, these subtle coincidences are not enough to condemn him.
Give an example.
This is like a murder case, where the police targeted three suspects, one of whom must be the murderer.
The three people were interrogated separately. The first person perfectly took out the alibi certificate, cooperated with the police in an orderly manner, and answered all the police questions with ease, without any flaws, and no clues could be pointed at him as the murderer.
In this case, the problem arises.
The police cannot identify the first person as the murderer.
But the first person's response was too perfect, as if he was planning and preparing carefully for the sake of killing people, which made people feel very uncomfortable.
In this case, although there is no evidence to prove that the first person is killed, the suspicious person will stare at the first person and keep investigating.
——It is because it is too perfect and has no flaws... so it seems strange.
Shrugged indifferently.
Other things are not good, Shirakawa Yu's good baby is first-class:
"Are you playing the 'perfect crime' meme?"
"... Because of these coincidences, I suspect that I am the murderer who is not noticed by the public?"
"Hey, I'm not a god... I'm just an ordinary human."
"You are all from your father's generation. You won't naively think that the world will keep moving in the direction someone expects, right?"
Yuzusaku Kudo turned his gaze to Yu Shirakawa, smiling slightly:
"No, it's because it doesn't move in the desired direction that the world is so interesting."
"... Also, I don't have any intention of doubting Mr. Shirakawa."
"I just want to express-"
Yuzusaku Kudo paused for a moment here, which was meaningful.
"You don't think I don't know anything, do you?"
“…”
Yu Shirakawa looked back at him with a smile, raised his lips and returned it to him in the original sentence:
"This is really uncomfortable..."
"You don't think I'm hiding something from you, right?"
This sentence contains a slight provocation to test Kudo Yusaki's reaction.
But the latter's expression did not show any change.
"Hahaha, Mr. Shirakawa, I don't dare to..."
Judging from his blurted response, he should have foresawed the provocation of Shirakawa Yu's degree of provocation long ago.
"By your level, maybe a good opponent to the detective."
"... Of course, of course, you can listen to me first. I really have no malice. I will say this, which is my sincere admiration for you."
Yuzusaku Kudo raised his hands and waved his left and right, but his expression remained unchanged:
"... Some of your performances in front of us just now were fabricated, but some of them were real, right?"
"That kind of emotion revealed by the expression and the faint changes when the expression switches are not lie."
——I saw through the truth again.
Yu Shirakawa even felt that this man had a script or something in his hand.
Sighed softly.
This time, Yu Shirakawa did not pretend to be stupid, did not affirm, nor did he deny it, but said something with some admiration:
"Mr. Yusaku Kudo, you are such a man that should not be underestimated."
“…in other words, you are a smart person.”
"I believe that smart people will not expose all their intelligence first, and then stand in an abandoned building in the suburbs and have a heart-to-heart talk with a suspicious person, right?"
He smiled with a bent eyebrows.
Shirakawa Yu had already confirmed it with [Analysis] in every corner of the building.
There are no ambush, no other criminal police friends, and no recording equipment.
Of course, by the way, this kind of secretly recorded sound without knowing it cannot be considered valid evidence.
——But it is not ruled out that the old boy secretly answered the phone and let the third party hear the two of them talking on the phone, and then stood up to identify Shirakawa Yu, thus forming a reasonable witness.
Fortunately, all this intrigue method did not happen.
Yuzusaku Kudo came here honestly this time without any trump cards.
It was like Zhuge Kongming, who was empty but still dared to open all four doors and sat on the city wall with a smile on his face and watched the enemy approaching.
Therefore, this sentence by Yu Shirakawa in turn has two metaphors.
One is to warn Yusaku Kudo that the two sides do not constitute conditions for equal negotiations now.
As long as you think in your heart, Yu Shirakawa can break up the negotiations and tear them apart anytime and anywhere.
The other is to ask Kudo Yusaku's purpose.
Since he dared to set up an empty city, he would look for him to go against the lane without any slightest trance... Then Yuzusaku Kudo must have some purpose.
Otherwise, what is the difference between this cup-filling behavior and giving away a head?
In fact.
After the acting process, Yuzusaku Kudo also deduced it in his heart, and he saw almost everything that Shirakawa Yu had seen through.
Of course, what we mean here is not just seeing through Yu Shirakawa's identity, but being a member of that organization.
What he saw through was the essence of Yu Shirakawa.
The nature of this person is also terrible.
Yu Shirakawa is not an unforgivable evil person, nor is he a kind person with noble morality.
But he is sometimes nobler than the good and more evil than the evil.
The purpose of opening an intelligence house and pursuing interests is probably just an excuse for the other party.
In fact, the other party seemed to be standing on another plane, overlooking the world high above.
Therefore, you do whatever you want, transcend the rules and order, do only what you want to do, satisfy your own goals, regardless of good or evil, and seek the most primitive and direct sense of pleasure.
Just like-
In a game with huge plots, if everyone is a character in the game, living and running the game every day according to the rules...
Then Yu Shirakawa is the one who sets the rules of the game outside the game, and participates in the game observation from the perspective of the manager, and enjoys the game as he likes.
Although the example is extreme, it should be true that his essence is.
Yusaku Kudo speculated that there should be many people who died because of him, but there will be no fewer people who turn their lives around and get redemption because of him.
People with this nature cannot be called good people, but they will not be villains.
Moreover, such a naughty person is even more unlikely to become a puppet of anyone, which means that there is no behind the scenes behind Yu Shirakawa.
Even if he is really a member of that organization, Yusaku Kudo feels that he cannot find any evidence and can arrest Shirakawa Yu.
But in Kudo Yusaki's view, Shirakawa Yu's style of acting is not very extreme.
To be continued...
