Chapter Fourteen:  Bars and Bruises

Detective Conan had never felt so trapped. The cold, unforgiving bars of his cell seemed to mock him, a constant reminder of the life he once had, now slipping away like sand through his fingers.

It had been thirty long days since he was locked up, accused of a crime he knew he had committed. But even as he sat in his cramped cell, Detective Conan refused to accept his fate. He was a man of power and influence, a man who had spent years bending the rules to his will. Surely, he thought, there must be a way out.

And so, he decided to request a bond reduction hearing. He claimed he had been tortured in jail, citing his status as a former law enforcement officer as grounds for special treatment. The thought of being released, even temporarily, was enough to fuel his determination.

Meanwhile, in the outside world, Karina and her family were in an uproar. The news of Detective Conan's request spread like wildfire through the community, igniting a fierce debate. How could they worship a man who had cold-bloodedly killed Marcus, a beloved member of their community?

But to Conan's family and friends, he was still a hero. They cheered him on, believing in his innocence despite the overwhelming evidence against him. Even the sheriff, a man sworn to uphold the law, stood by Conan, his loyalty unwavering.

As the date of the bond reduction hearing approached, tensions in the community reached a boiling point. Karina knew that if Conan was released, it would only be a matter of time before he struck again. She vowed to do everything in her power to stop him, even if it meant facing danger head-on.

And so, as Detective Conan sat in his cell, plotting his release, Karina prepared to face her greatest challenge yet. The battle for justice had only just begun, and the outcome would determine the fate of them all.
