"Don't go through with it!," Conan shouted as he approached the scene.
I tried my emperor's eye on the figure as he turned his gleaming mask to our direction. "What are you after!" I yelled at the top of my voice.
The Akumetsu stood motionless but answered, "I've made deals with higher ups to cleanse the city of all wrongdoers, and if the culprits haven't reformed to a proper judiciary body and locked up, I go to do the job directly. If the higher up doesn't comply then he too is in position to get akumetsued.
I rushed towards him hoping to get a better glimpse of his face. "Don't do anything reckless Leleouche," I heard Conan in passing though I had no intention on wasting this opportunity to unmask the Akamatsu.
From a better vantage point, "I order you to step away from the victim and turn and face us."
Nothing happened again. As I thought, it must be the mask.
I looked back to see where Edogawa had gone. He had taken out what looked like a tennis ball. He placed it on the ground and readied a kick. The kick was heading straight on target, but it wasn't fast enough to stop the exploding mask.
We were knocked to the ground.
Darn! I missed my chance to learn more of Akamatsu.
...
Inspector Takagi was with his notebook asking Leleouche some questions while I went to find Ran and Sonoko.
Darn! I missed my chance to learn more of Akumetsu.
I have to bring them down even more so than the crime syndicate I had been looking out for. As I said, the Akamatsu incidents were unrelated to the syndicate. They weren't the type to do high profile as Akamatsu. I stand by what I believe that: no one has the right to take the life of another. Akamatsu must be stopped.
