Conan looked around. He realized he hadn't seen Qian Jiangyi in a long time. "Hm? Where did Mr. Qian go?"
"Photos of Rasputin..." Haibara couldn't find his photo among all those pictures.
"Hm?" Conan didn't understand what Haibara meant.
Haibara looked at Conan. "He didn't appear... Isn't he very close with the Emperor's family?"
Conan listened to Haibara's words and carefully re-examined the photos. "Hmm... indeed, I saw it in Mr. Xi's room." At this moment, Conan suddenly remembered Rasputin's initial. "That word, could it be R...?"
Mouri stretched, yawning. "Everything finally ended happily."
"That is..." Yuta, who had been staring at Pousse Caillou, noticed the woman pulling out a gun and aiming it at Mouri. A red dot was approaching Mouri Kogoro's right eye.
"I knew it was you, you bastard! Now you're finished!" Yuta immediately threw the flashlight he had taken from the stone platform at Pousse Caillou, and at the same time, kicked Mouri away. "Danger!! Uncle Mouri, dodge quickly!"
"We'll..." Mouri, about to say something, was directly kicked to the ground by Yuta. "What are you doing, Yuta!"
Pousse Caillou was hit by Yuta's flashlight. Coupled with Mouri being kicked to the ground, her shot went wide, missing Mouri.
Because Pousse Caillou's gun had a silencer, Ran didn't hear the gunshot. She walked over and picked up the still-glowing flashlight that had been knocked out of Pousse Caillou's hand.
Conan already understood from Yuta's words and actions that the culprit was firing a gun. Seeing Ran go to pick up the still-glowing flashlight, he realized she would become the culprit's next target. Conan didn't even think; he lunged towards Ran. "Don't pick it up! Ran!"
"Shinichi..." At this moment, in Ran's eyes, Conan transformed into Shinichi.
The two narrowly dodged the bullet. Conan shouted, "Everyone, duck!"
Everyone immediately fell into a chaotic scramble, running everywhere. Seeing this situation, Yuta was helpless. In this pitch-black environment with everyone running wildly, Yuta couldn't use his Bat Glider, as it would easily cause accidental injuries.
Sumire stumbled in the dark. The Egg of Memories in her hand was also knocked to the ground. Seeing the culprit pick up the Egg of Memories and run, Sumire shouted, "Ah! The Egg of Memories!"
Yuta, hearing Sumire's voice, turned his head and saw Pousse Caillou had already run out of the room. "Bastard! I won't let you get away!" Yuta said, then ran out of the room after her.
Conan also picked up a flashlight and chased after her. "Don't run!" Ran shouted, "Don't go!"
Inspector Shiratori, seeing that both Yuta and Conan had chased after her, also ran out of the room. "Mr. Mouri, sorry for the trouble."
"Shinichi..." Ran stared blankly at the distant Conan. She remembered what happened at the amusement park.
Midway, Pousse Caillou threw a grenade, which Yuta, with Conan, easily dodged. However, it blew up the passage, forcing Mouri and others to follow Haibara through the left-side ventilation shaft to leave the basement.
"Mr. Qian?!" Conan, in hot pursuit, stumbled over a corpse. He shone his flashlight and discovered it was Qian Jiangyi. Without hesitation, he immediately climbed up and chased the culprit.
Pousse Caillou ran out of the basement and closed the entrance. Yuta and Conan couldn't catch up. "Damn it! Yuta. What do we do now?" Conan, looking at the closed entrance, consulted Yuta.
"It's just a wooden board, how can it stop me?" Yuta kicked through the wooden board at the entrance and went with Conan to chase Pousse Caillou.
Seeing the culprit not far ahead scattering gasoline, preparing to light it, Yuta said to Conan, "Shinichi, you distract her. I'll take the opportunity to subdue her."
"You want to escape alone?" Pousse Caillou, who was scattering gasoline and about to light it, suddenly heard Conan speaking to her in everyone's voice.
"I know your identity. You pretend to be from the Joseon Dynasty, but you are actually a Russian. I guessed correctly, didn't I? The descendant of the mysterious Rasputin—Miss Caillou."
Pousse Caillou put down her lighter and walked out, holding her gun. Conan hid around the corner and began to narrate his deductions. "At first, I actually didn't notice. Pousse Caillou, with different letter combinations,
becomes Rasputin! You believe that the wealth of the Romanov Dynasty should go to Rasputin, who was close to the Emperor.
So you replace your ancestors, taking all the dynasty's treasures into your hands. And attacking the opponent's right eye is to commemorate the persecution your ancestors suffered."
Conan saw Yuta give him a signal, understood Yuta was ready, and walked out. "You killed Mr. Hanagawa because he discovered your true identity.
Mr. Hanagawa habitually took videos when entering other people's rooms. You carelessly forgot to reverse the photo, so that wasn't a photo of your boyfriend, but a photo of Grigori Rasputin!"
"Conan!" Pousse Caillou hadn't expected it to be Conan. "The English initial of Grigori is G, and for Russian, it's R. When I saw the photo in Mr. Xi's room, I didn't immediately make the connection.
You thought Hanagawa took photos of Rasputin, so you specifically killed Hanagawa. Mr. Qian was killed because he saw you installing a silencer, right? And you even wanted to kill Ran..."
Pousse Caillou 217 aimed her gun at Conan. "Have you said enough? Pitiful, you're going to die too."
"Is that so? I don't think so." Yuta, coming out from the shadows, used his Bat Glider to knock the gun from Pousse Caillou's hand.
"What!?" Pousse Caillou tried to pick up the gun, but Yuta didn't give her the chance. Yuta rushed over and punched Pousse Caillou in the abdomen. After such a heavy blow, Pousse Caillou instantly fainted.
In that instant, Conan felt as if he heard the sound of bones cracking. "Yuta, you hit really hard!"
"No choice, who told this woman to try and hurt Uncle Mouri and Ran. This is already light punishment." Yuta shrugged, saying indifferently.
"You... " Conan remembered Ran almost being shot just now, and said no more.
"Conan, Yuta, you two don't have to be so tense, alright?!" Inspector Shiratori rushed over.
Conan shook his head. "Don't be tense..." Conan found something strange about Shiratori.
Inspector Shiratori picked up Pousse Caillou and walked out towards the castle. "Let's go out and rendezvous with everyone."
"At least this beautiful castle is saved. This time, I didn't participate for nothing." Yuta looked at the unlit gasoline scattered on the ground and chuckled.
