Akai tells Conan that he brings the culprit to the MPD
Akai doesn’t want that Mary gets to know that he’s still alive
Rating:
8/10 shogi boards
I really like this case. I like that Shukichi has some spotlight in this three-parter and his interaction with Shuichi is great. It’s an interesting case with tension, but also some funny moments. Still, it feels a bit stretched to me (also because of many flashback scenes).
