Guilt?

Conan : Now... So the culprit may be related with Kogoro..... But... Why would they kill the other people? Wait... What if they did something together? And then someone had a grudge on them. But what?

Conan entered Kogoro's office and saw Akemi looking for something.
Conan : What are you doing Ran?
Akemi : Finding some gloves to play with Ayumi, Ushio, and Miyuki. Maybe Genta and Mitsuhiko are gonna come. Want to join us?
Conan : Of course! After all your dad already asked me to protect you! What if the culprit suddenly attacks you and the others?
Akemi : Don't be a liar, you just want to take a break don't you?
Conan : No I don't! I'll get my scarf, don't go alone.

A few minutes later
Ayumi : Hahaha!
Ushio : I'm gonna get you!!
Akemi : Wait for me!!
Conan : Akemi! Don't go too far!
Akemi : Okay!
Conan thinking : "sigh" She really likes being a child..... I sometimes wonder how she's so happy even though she's going through so much..... Alright.... Back to investigating....... I still don't get why the killer would leave a rope when I was investigating. Like who does that?! Is he trying to tell the police he is the culprit? And....

"Bam"

Conan : Ouch!!
Ushio : Stop spacing out and play!
Ayumi : Conan kun's it!!
Conan : Tsk... !!!
Ayumi : Conan kun what's wrong?

A man was riding a motorcycle and he headed straight to Akemi and Ushio even though she was on the sidewalk.
Conan : AKEMI!! USHIO!!! WATCH OUT!!!
Akemi : Huh?! AAAA!!!

"Bam"

The motorcycle crashed to the wall, then the man grabbed a knife from his pocket and grabbed Ushio.
Ushio : HELP!!!
Akemi : USHIO!!
Man : Come closer little girl.... Or not your friend's blood will make this white snow bright red....
Akemi : 😨😨....
Conan thinking : Nghh...... My watch is in the office.... There is nothing to kick.... What.... Should I do....
Ushio : I... Can't.... Breathe.....
Man : Do you want your friend to die girl?!
Akemi : N... NO!!! Let her go!!
Man : Then come closer.... So we can end all of this.....
Akemi : .......
Conan thinking : !!!! Snow!!
Conan : AAAAAARGHH!!!
Man : Huh?!

Conan used his super shoes to kick a huge amount of snow straight to the man's face.
Man : ARGH!! You brat!
Conan : Akemi! Throw me that pot!
Akemi : ?! Here!!!
Conan : Right.... Now to end this!!! Ushio DUCK!!!

Conan kicked the pot to the man's forehead and the man passed out. Ushio ran and started to cry.
Conan : I'm gonna call Inspector Megure.... The rest of you go back to the office. It's not safe out here.

A moment later
Man : I DIDNT KILL ALL OF THOSE PEOPLE!!!
Megure : THEN WHY DID U ATTACK THAT GIRL!! SHE'S NOW TERRIFIED AND CRYING BECAUSE OF YOU!
Man : I WAS SENT BY SOMEONE!! AND I NEVER WANTED TO END THAT GIRL'S LIFE!! I WAS ASKED TO TAKE THAT OTHER GIRL WITH BROWN HAIR INSTEAD!!!

Outside of the interrogation room Takagi, Kogoro, and Conan were listening to their conversation.
Kogoro : How dare he tried to kidnap my daughter!
Takagi : Daughter? You have two?
Kogoro : I.... I mean.... Um..... Akemi!! She means a lot too since it's my responsibility because she lives with me!
Takagi : That.... Makes sense?
Kogoro : So, does he know who asked him to kidnap Akemi?
Takagi : We don't have that much information, but we got some clues about him. He..... He kept saying "Make Kogoro suffer no matter the cause! I want to end this now!!"
Conan : End this now?
Kogoro : Takagi, he kept saying weird words... And he left the rope when Conan was investigating.... Do you think...
Conan : He's trying to tell us who he is after his revenge?
Kogoro : ?!!
Takagi : Now that you mentioned it.... It is true...
Kogoro : It's like he feels guilty about it, but he wants to finish what he started.
Conan : But why would he feel guilty?
Kogoro : Brat! Even culprits have feelings you know!
Conan : T... That's not it.... I mean... He already killed 9 people and tried to kill Akemi... I mean Ran's mom..... So... Why is he feeling guilty now? Why did he just acted like a cold blooded murderer when he was.... Um... He didn't really kill all of them.... But he is the mastermind. Still... Why is he feeling guilty now?
Kogoro : Hm....
Conan : Uncle, we need more information about your friends and acquaintances, or not Akemi is in great danger.
Kogoro : ........
