Conan: Life between Green Plum and Skyfall

Chapter 230 Abandoned Ohara

"Ah, I'm fine. Thanks to this guy for saving my life. If it weren't for him, I would have almost died here."

Aida's voice was trembling. Because of what had just happened, his legs were still powerless. Therefore, he could only sit on the ground and express his gratitude to Kaito with words.

Seeing that he was indeed fine, President Ohara's face turned pale and blue. He had obviously made sufficient preparations, but he didn't expect that Aida could actually survive!

Could it be that I could only watch him leave my company? Could it be that my company really had to end like this?

Because of this, the look he gave Kaito was tinged with gloom.

Kaito, noticing the gaze, turned back with some confusion, and his eyes met Ohara's. Seeing this, Ohara quickly restrained his gaze and looked at Kaito with a grateful expression:

"Thank you so much, classmate. If it weren't for you, my employee would probably..."

Although he pretended to be okay, Kaito had not forgotten the look in his eyes just now. Therefore, he nodded cautiously:

"It's okay, it's just a little effort."

Seeing Kaito looking at him warily, Ohara knew that Kaito had noticed the look he had just given him. But even if he had noticed, what could he do? Without evidence, he had no way to deal with him.

Compared to Kaito who saved people, what he is more worried about now is how to kill Aida again.

"In a few days, Aida will be leaving. Damn it, such a good plan was actually blocked by someone! Next time, I'm afraid he will never come to this store that almost killed him again."

Looking at Aida who had finally recovered and stood up from the ground with the help of a chair next to him, a cold look flashed across Ohara's eyes.

However, he gave up in the end. Although he wanted to kill Aida for betraying the company and use his insurance to help the company through the difficulties, he was not ready to send himself in.

There is only one chance like today to get rid of suspicion, and with the failure of this murder plan, it is impossible for him to kill Xiangtian again.

"Ugh."

Sighing, he walked forward and patted Aida's shoulder:

"Since you've encountered such a dangerous accident, I'll let you go today and go back to rest early. However, the task I assigned to you must be completed before you leave!"

Anyway, Aida has decided to leave, so he can only find a way to squeeze out the last bit of value from him.

Aida didn't say anything, just nodded. After today's life and death experience, he felt that his mentality was a little numb.

Soon, after the people around called the police, the police arrived. However, because no one was killed, only a few officers from the traffic police team arrived, and Officer Megure did not show up.

During this period, the driver who discovered that his truck had mysteriously disappeared hurried down from the top of the slope. After finding that his truck had crashed into a coffee shop, he felt dizzy and almost fainted.

However, when he heard that no one died in the accident, he breathed a sigh of relief.

For him, an accident and an accident resulting in casualties are two completely different things. The former is covered by insurance, so it can generally be covered. However, the latter is likely to be rejected by insurance. Even a humanitarian compensation claim could bankrupt him.

Therefore, after hearing that it was Kaito who helped save the man from the crisis of death, he also thanked Kaito profusely.

However, after thanking the police, he said seriously that he had definitely applied the handbrake and locked the wheels!

However, because there were no surveillance cameras nearby, his testimony could not be verified. Therefore, the cost of repairing the cafe was also assessed to be his responsibility.

Fortunately, he has insurance, so some of these unexpected losses can be reimbursed through insurance.

Perhaps, the insurance company is the only victim in this case.

"Are you sure this is okay?"

Looking at the person who was marked by the death aura who successfully survived and returned to Conan with a strong, unwilling attitude, Hongzi frowned and asked in a low voice.

"What can happen?"

Conan shrugged.

"As for you, you should be able to take me to your house now to test my magical talent or something."

"you......"

Hongzi wanted to say, "That person was clearly marked by death energy, but you forcibly saved him. Is there really no problem with that?" However, after hesitating for a moment, she gave up.

Because, in her eyes, the deathly aura that was originally stirring in Conan, after the marked person survived this time, not only did not retaliate against Conan, but on the contrary, it strangely became silent.

To be honest, this was not the first time she had seen the aura of death. The problem was that once someone was touched by the aura of death, they were destined to die no matter what happened.

However, after this person escaped this disaster, the death energy not only did not exert its strength, but instead returned to Conan's body unwillingly, which made her really unable to understand.

However, perhaps this was Conan's own talent. After all, she knew almost nothing about death energy.

Moreover, after this battle, the deadly aura in him had subsided. This was a good opportunity for me to fulfill my promise to him:

"Never mind, it's alright. Let's go to my house. I'll test your talent and teach you some basic magic techniques."

With that, Hongzi stood up and left.

As for the police? Because there were no casualties, they simply attributed the case to an accident and did not conduct a thorough investigation. Therefore, they simply recorded the incident and left.

"Speaking of which, Conan, that big truck was made by that guy named Taiyuan, right?"

Kaito felt a bit awkward recalling Taihara's look. If that petty guy was the one who was trying to kill Aida, then if he saved the person he wanted to kill, he wouldn't be targeted.

"Yes, it was indeed his doing."

When Conan saw Dayun rushing into the store, he remembered which episode it was. However, he had not watched the anime of this episode, but had only heard of it.

Having said that, this is another method that relies purely on luck.

Not to mention whether the wooden wedge with the fishing handle would be torn off before being taken away, even if the wooden wedge was taken away as he imagined, if the truck deviated slightly when rushing down the slope, Aida would still be able to survive the disaster safely.

Seeing Kaito's worried look, Conan said unhappily:

"Come on, aren't you a Phantom Thief? How can you be so concerned about that person's safety? What kind of Phantom Thief are you?

Don't worry, this technique can only be used once and cannot be replicated. So, that person named Aida will not get into trouble again."

Kaito rolled his eyes after hearing Conan's words. He was a Phantom Thief, but that didn't mean he was a bad guy! How could he stay out of it when he knew the boss was trying to kill his employees?

However, since his cousin, the great detective, had said so, Kaito naturally stopped worrying, so he nodded to show that he understood.

As for the safety of himself and Aoko? That Ohara could even let go of the person he wanted to kill the most, let alone these two passers-by.
