Conan: Another Famous Detective

Chapter 188 Hattori Heiji’s invitation

The afternoon after Kudo and his wife left, Kudo's house.

Yu Gongming, Conan, and Meng Yu sat around the dining table, enjoying the afternoon tea carefully prepared by Meng Yu.

"That's probably what happened." As Conan spoke, he put the last piece of fruit cake on the plate into his mouth.

Yes, Conan went out with Kudo Yukiko this time and encountered another case.

The general story of what happened is that the head of the Yabuchi family passed away due to illness a month ago, and he had written a will before, stating that any heir who was not present when the will was announced has no right to inherit the inheritance.

As a result, the sons and daughters of the head of the Yaunai family rushed to the Yaunai family.

In addition to these people, the head of the family's younger brother, Yoshifusa Yabuuchi, who has settled in Brazil, also returned to Japan, bringing with him his Brazilian friend Carlos.

However, the children had doubts about the identity of the uncle who suddenly appeared.

Therefore, Kudo Yukiko's friend, Yabuuchi Hiromi, asked Kudo Yukiko to come and investigate the matter.

Of course, the person she really asked for was Kudo and his son.

This is why Kudo Yukiko brought Conan with her.

Wherever Conan is present, murders occur as expected.

The deceased was Machiko Yabuuchi, the wife of the head of the family. The cause of her death was that she wanted to kill Yabuuchi Yoshifu, but she was killed instead.

This is Conan's reasoning.

By the way, the person who was brutally poisoned by Conan's anesthesia needle this time was the number one Muggle in the police force, Gunma Prefecture Police Officer Yamamura Kao!

This is a man who is said to have been promoted to the police force thanks to Conan!

Conan used the words of Yamamura Cao, who was not very bright, to deduce part of the truth.

However, after he deduced this, his father Kudo Yusaku immediately came out and slapped him in the face.

It turned out that the so-called Yabuuchi Yoshifusa was indeed a fake.

He is a friend of Yabuuchi Yifusa, and his purpose of coming here this time is actually to protect the real heir - Carlos!

Carlos is actually the son of Yabuuchi's adopted son and a Brazilian woman.

The reason why the head of the Yabuuchi family wanted to distribute the inheritance to him was because the farm that Yabuuchi Yoshifu and his friend ran together suffered heavy losses from a tornado in the early years, and Yabuuchi Yoshifu passed away half a year ago.

That's why the head of the Yabui family decided to express his feelings by dividing the inheritance among his nephew.

The reason why Kudo Yusaku was able to discover these truths was that, on the one hand, he found the letter sent by Yoshibo Nouchi from Brazil in the warehouse of the Yabuchi family.

On the other hand, he also saw the flaw of the impostor.

Yabuuchi Gifu was once a left-handed baseball first baseman, and such a baseball first baseman usually throws the base bag (baseball game equipment) with his left foot. However, the injury of the impostor was on his right foot. There are no traces on the left foot.

Kudo Yusaku became suspicious and found the letters in the warehouse.

Conan didn't notice these things at all.

"So, Uncle Yusaku originally came to see Yukiko's sister, but he found out the truth earlier than you, a full-time investigator?" Akira Hanomiya took a sip of black tea and said jokingly.

"Tch~ I did not observe properly this time. I have nothing to say, but I will soon surpass Dad!" Conan said with a look of displeasure.

"I heard you say something like this when you were seven years old. It's been ten years now and it still hasn't become a reality." Meng Yu ruthlessly poured cold water on her.

"I..." Conan was choked instantly.

"You are still smarter with age, Conan-kun, you still have a long way to go!" Yu Gongming said with a chuckle.

"That's enough!" Conan raised his half-moon eyes.

While several people were chatting, a cell phone ringtone suddenly came from Conan's pocket.

"Eh? Is this Kudo Shinichi's number?" Conan took out his phone and glanced at the caller ID, his face instantly darkened.

He answered the phone with disgust on his face.

"Hey! What's going on this time?" Conan asked very rudely.

"Hey, what's your attitude? Can't I contact you if nothing happens?" A young man's voice came faintly from the other end of the phone.

"Hattori?" Yu Gongming raised his eyebrows.

"It seems like it's really him..." Meng Yu also heard it.

"Okay, don't make me poor. If you have something to say, tell me quickly or I'll die." Conan was not polite to Hattori Heiji at all.

Although he was also a famous detective, he recognized Hattori's reasoning ability, but he also felt a little sympathetic to each other.

However, throughout several meetings with Hattori Heiji, Conan's experience was quite unpleasant.

For the first time, because of the money he gave me, I was restored to Kudo Shinichi by chance. Although this may become an important inspiration for developing an antidote,

But this experience of changing back and forth again was really uncomfortable. The pain of feeling as if his heart was about to explode is still fresh in Conan's memory.

The second time, I happily went to join the Sherlock Holmes tour group, but this guy Hattori came to join in again, and finally discovered my true identity, causing me to panic and have to explain myself.

The third time, at Nagato's house, he and Hanomiya were called over inexplicably, and this guy almost had his identity exposed in public when they met!

If Meng Yu and Yu Gong hadn't reacted quickly, who knows what would have happened?

Therefore, although Conan also regards Hattori as a friend, don't expect him to have a good attitude.

"Hey! Kudo, every time I call you, you look disgusted. I will be sad if you do this!" Hattori Heiji still had the same playful tone, as if he didn't care about Conan's attitude.

"I'm hanging up." Conan put down the phone and pressed the hang up button.

"No, no, no!" Hattori Heiji suddenly raised his voice and said quickly:

"I'm calling this time mainly because I want to invite you to Osaka!"

"Going to Osaka?" Conan was slightly startled.

"Yes, I was the one who went to Kanto the past few times and caused you a lot of trouble. I actually feel a little bit sorry about it. This time, let me entertain you as the host!" Hattori Heiji said.

"Hey, you won't encounter any difficult cases again and want our help, right?" Conan asked suspiciously.

"Really not, I just invite you to travel this time. Yu Gong, Meng Yu, your girlfriend and Uncle Maori can all come together. I will take care of all the food, drink and fun. I guarantee that you will experience the purest Osaka style!" Hattori Heiji vowed.

"Wait a minute, Yu Gong and Meng Yu are next to me. Let me ask them." Conan put down the phone and looked at the two of them.

"I've always wanted to try Osaka's specialty Osaka-yaki, and the soba noodles there are said to be different from those in Kanto, and the puffer fish hot pot looks pretty good too..." Akira Hanamiya said, for Osaka, or He said he was very interested in Osaka’s famous food.

"As long as Hattori treats us, everything will be easy." Meng Yu said with a smile.

"Do you mean to go?" Conan confirmed.

The two nodded.

"Did you hear everything?" Conan put the phone to his ear again.

"What about Xiaolan and Uncle Mouri? Once the number of people is determined, I can make some preparations." Hattori Heiji asked.

"I'm sure I can convince Uncle and Xiaolan, just count them two." Conan said confidently.

In fact, as long as Xiaolan is persuaded, Uncle Maori's opinions can basically be ignored.

Is it difficult for Conan to convince Xiaolan?

No!

"Then it's settled! Come over in three days. I will be free in the next few days and will take you to visit Osaka!" Hattori Heiji said with a smile.

"Well, I'll see you in a few days." Conan said and hung up the phone.
