Chapter 398 The Detective's Role is All in Your Murders

"This is my business card, you can take a look."

"business card?"

Qi Ming handed the woman his business card and waited for her response.

Because he had reviewed the replay, Qi Ming actually had a good impression of the assassin this time.

As the saying goes, even though I have tattoos, perms, and go clubbing, I'm a good girl.

Although the woman in front of me intended to kill, her motives were quite righteous; in other places, she would definitely be considered an anti-hero.

The woman's name was Wuyi, and she was a doctor.

Her friend Urata is also a doctor, and he is also the target she wants to kill today.

Urata plans to present a paper at the upcoming academic conference.

However, this paper contains a major oversight. If medication is prescribed according to the content of this paper, the patient will soon need a second prescription.

Urata once caused someone's death by prescribing the wrong medicine, but for fame and fortune, he deliberately concealed the incident, not caring at all that many people would die after his paper was published.

One day, Urata, having been rejected in his marriage proposal, invited Mai out for drinks to cheer himself up. Under the influence of alcohol, Urata revealed his true feelings.

I never imagined that someone who can decide life and death would be rejected by someone's marriage proposal.

It was upon hearing Urata's words that Mai felt the urge to kill arise in her heart.

After reviewing the recap, Qi Ming couldn't help but think of the chef in the restaurant that day.

Those medical professionals can become nightmares for unfamiliar patients, and you, kid, your father was driven to his death and you still managed to stay calm.

...Something seems off. I wonder if the cook released the people he had tied up.

"..."

Wu Yi looked at the business card Qi Ming handed her, and the bizarre main business listed on it made her wonder if this man had some kind of mental illness.

"Sir, I don't understand what you mean."

"Please stop teasing me. I'm a doctor; I save lives, not kill them."

Wu Yi picked up the coffee the clerk handed her, chuckled, and handed the business card back to Qi Ming.

No, you know what I mean.

Qi Ming didn't take the business card, but gently pushed it to Wu Yi. He took a few steps forward and whispered in Wu Yi's ear:

"I understand that doctors save lives, but I also understand the principle that killing one person can save many others."

"You and your companions are going to the theater later, right? You're buying drinks now so you can hide poison in the ice and kill that person, right?"

"!!"

Snapped--

Upon hearing Qi Ming reveal his entire plan, Wu Yi loosened her grip, and the coffee fell to the ground with a thud.

Her previously calm expression turned panicked.

What's going on? How does this man know about my plans?

I'm still in the preparatory stage of committing a crime, and I haven't even started to carry it out yet, but someone has already exposed me?

"Who are you, and how do you know about this?"

My name should be on my business card, right?

Qi Ming glanced at the business card in his hand, then sat down in the chair where he had just pointed and patted it.

"Come, dance costume, have a seat, let's have a chat."

"..."

Wu Yi looked at Qi Ming with a somewhat uneasy expression.

Compared to having his entire criminal plan revealed, it's not surprising that his name was called out directly.

She felt that the situation was a bit strange, but her curiosity made her hesitate for a moment before following and sitting down.

"What are you going to do? Even if you know my plan, calling the police won't do you any good."

Wu Yi sat down and got straight to the point.

Qi Ming didn't care that she knew about her plan; she hadn't made a move yet, and the poison was in her bag, which she could discard at any time.

"Who's calling the police?"

Qi Ming rolled his eyes at Wu Yi and then shoved the business card into her hand.

"Didn't you see our main business just now? We're doing legitimate business, the police won't come to investigate."

"..."

Mai felt more and more that the man in front of her was not normal.

Are assassinations and robberies considered legitimate business?

The police won't come to investigate because you've already dealt with all the investigators who came to investigate, right?

Mai hesitated before asking:

"...Are you an assassin organization?"

"Well, you could understand it that way."

Qi Ming stopped wasting words and went straight to Wu Yi:

"I've come to you today to tell you that your plan is doomed to fail, so do you want me to do something for you?"

Is failure inevitable?

Wu Yi frowned.

She believed her plan was perfect.

What makes you think I will fail?

Qi Ming glared at Wu Yi with annoyance.

"You know Heiji Hattori, right?"

Wu Yi looked up at the sky, pondered for a moment, and then shook her head.

"do not know."

"..."

Qi Ming looked at Wu Yi with a strange expression.

"Heiji Hattori, a high school detective from Kansai."

"A detective from Kansai?"

When Qi Ming mentioned the word "detective," Mai finally reacted.

Qi Ming continued:

You know Shinichi Kudo, right?

Unlike Qi Ming's reaction when he mentioned Hattori Heiji earlier, Mai nodded without hesitation.

"Yes, I know that. That famous high school detective, known in the media as the man closest to Sherlock Holmes."

"..."

It seems that Heiji Hattori's fame has become rather low; Shinichi Kudo's name is much more effective.

But who is the man who is closest to Sherlock Holmes?

Holmes is dead, so Shinichi Kudo is the man closest to a dead man?

Stopping his delusions, Qi Ming tapped the floor with his finger.

"I have to tell you, this is Shinichi Kudo's school."

"And that's not all, Kogoro Mouri is here too."

Hearing Qi Ming's words, Wu Yi's head was buzzing.

What an amazing lineup!

A small school brings together famous detectives from the Kanto and Kansai regions, and surprisingly, the sleeping detective Kogoro Mouri is also here.

Seeing Wu Yi's surprised expression, Qi Ming said with a hint of disappointment.

"So, sis, of all times and places to kill someone, why did you have to choose this time and place? Are you out of your mind?"

"Don't you even check a strategy guide before you go out to kill people?"

After being scolded by Qi Ming, Wu Yi couldn't help but lower her head.

With three such great detectives around, it seems quite risky to take matters into one's own hands.

Despite this, Mai's desire to kill Urata still lingered.

If this unethical doctor doesn't die, he'll ruin even more patients in the future.

Thinking back to what Qi Ming had said at the beginning, Wu Yi remained silent for a moment before raising her head and asking Qi Ming:

"...If I ask you to do this for me, what do I need to give in return?"

"Just give me the money, you decide what to do."

Wu Yi frowned and considered for a moment. Although she wasn't short of money, she still asked.

"Since so many celebrities are here today, I can just do it another day. I don't think I need to entrust you with this task, do I?"

Upon hearing this, Qi Ming raised an eyebrow.

"You really think I'm discussing this with you? You just said we're an assassin organization."

"If you don't ask me to take this job today, I'll send people to follow you every day. If you make a move, we'll film you and call the police."
