Seiji Aso's Suicide
"Seiji come on! There's still time!" Conan said, tugging at Seiji's dress.
"It's too late for me, my hands are covered in blood just like them…" Seiji replied. He then picked up Conan and tossed him out of the burning building.
"Conan!" Rachel called out seeing him flying out of the window. Conan tried to get back in, but Rachel held his arm to keep him still.
"Let me go!"
Music played. Conan stopped struggling.
"It's another code…"
Thank you, little detective.
Conan sat in silence. He could never forget that case. Even though Seiji was a criminal, he couldn't let him commit suicide. But he had failed. It would haunt him forever. Harley didn't help much either.
"I don't know, Kudo. Maybe it would have been better just to let her kill herself." Harley said.
"Harley…if you corner a suspect with your deductions, and do nothing to stop him from killing himself, you're no better than a murderer yourself!" Conan replied.
"Easy there, Kudo. I think I get the point, Mr. Perfect Detective." Harley smirked, scratching his ear.
"I'm not perfect," Conan countered, light reflecting off of his glasses, "it's just that I let it happen before, only I was too small to stop it." The same scene relayed in his mind. "And now I have to live with it."
Conan let out a miserable sigh. It was because of that Harley almost died once.
"Harley! Did Sakata do this to you?!" Kazuha cried.
"No…I was trying to stop him from committing suicide, and I kinda got shot." Harley said.
"But…why would you put yourself in such a dangerous situation?!"
"Some dummy I know…" Harley winced in pain, "…told me that a detective must never hound a criminal to his death."
'Harley…' Conan didn't think he'd remember that.
Conan thought Harley died when he closed his eyes. Turned out he didn't get any sleep because he was planning the tour to Osaka.
Seiji was trying to avenge his father's death, but he never knew Keiji's final words for him. If only Conan had told him sooner, he would still be alive, in jail maybe, but still alive. He sighed. He sure did bring a lot of death around.
Speaking of Harley… Conan thought, we're supposed to go to Osaka tomorrow for another tour. Harley said there wouldn't be any interruptions this time, but with me around… He sighed. Oh well, I might as well get some sleep and we'll see how things go in the morning.
Author's note: Speaking of Harley...guess who's next on Conan's list of misfortunes? He brought a whole lot of trouble for poor lil' Conan! XDD
