Conan: Another Famous Detective

Chapter 319 The man asking for directions

At about nine o'clock in the morning, the doctor drove his Beetle to Kudo's house and picked up Xiao Ai.

Meng Yu stretched lazily, smiled at Yu Gongming and said, "By the way, let's go out to eat tonight!"

"Oh? Is it still that Chinese restaurant?" Yu Gongming asked.

"No!" Meng Yu shook her head, then came to the sofa and rummaged in her handbag for a while.

Not long after, Meng Yu had two more ticket-like pieces of paper in her hand.

"Look! When I participated in a lottery at a certain store yesterday, I got two free coupons for a Western restaurant in Aipado!"

Yu Gongming was startled: "Huh? Not bad. It seems that you have acquired a bit of European style by often shopping with Xiaolan!"

"That's right!" Meng Yu raised her chin proudly and said with a smile: "Hey, look, in return for my treat to you for dinner, you can go shopping with me later!"

"No problem, it's my honor. The detective agency will remain closed for the rest of the day." Hanemiya Akira said with a smile.

"Then wait a minute, I'll change clothes and then we'll set off." Meng Yu said with a smile.

"Yeah." Yu Gongming nodded.

About half an hour later.

The two walked out of the door of Kudo's house.

"Sorry, it's hard to choose when you see the wardrobe full of clothes." Meng Yu said a little embarrassedly.

"It's okay. It's nothing. It doesn't matter how long you wait." Yu Gongming said with a smile.

"Thank you for your understanding!" Meng Yu said while holding Yu Gongming's arm affectionately.

The two chatted all the way and walked towards Mihua Tram Station.

When they came to the 2-chome intersection, a middle-aged man wearing a gray coat and a weathered face walked towards them.

The man came to a halt in front of the two of them, bowed slightly and said:

"Excuse me, you two, is the Mori Detective Agency near here?"

Akira Hanomiya was stunned, and then pointed in the direction of Fifth-chome: "The Mori Detective Agency is in Fifth-chome. We are just on the way and can take you there."

"Thank you very much." The man suddenly said with gratitude on his face.

So, the three of them walked towards the fifth-chome direction together.

"Look at the two of you, are you a boyfriend and girlfriend getting ready to go out on a date?" the man asked curiously.

"Yes." Yu Gongming responded politely.

The man suddenly showed emotion: "It's great to be young, but I can never go back to those beautiful years like poetry."

"Isn't that what life is like? Every age has its own taste. Rather than missing the past, living the present is the most important thing." Hanemiya Ming said with a smile.

"That's quite right." The man smiled.

"Oh, by the way, haven't you asked me your name yet?" Yu Gongming asked.

"Oh, my name is Murakami, and I am currently unemployed." The man said.

When Yu Gongming heard the name, he suddenly stopped.

Meng Yu noticed Yu Gongming's abnormality and looked over suspiciously.

Akira Hanomiya looked at the man who called himself Murakami's father-in-law, and his expression gradually became serious:

"As far as I know, ten years ago, a Maori detective who was still serving in the Investigation Division of the Metropolitan Police Department escorted a prisoner back to the Metropolitan Police Department."

The man's expression changed.

Akira Hanomiya continued: "And because of some negligence during the handover, the prisoner accidentally escaped from the police's control, and even allowed the prisoner to kidnap Detective Mori's wife, lawyer Fei Yingli."

"If I remember correctly, the prisoner's name seems to be Murakami."

The man's expression changed for a while, and then he breathed out softly and said, "I didn't expect that a young man like you would know this old story."

"So, you are the Murakami father-in-law?" Akira Hanomiya confirmed.

"Yes, I was the prisoner Mr. Maori arrested back then." The man readily admitted.

"So, have you just been released from prison? Or are you on parole?" Yu Gongming asked.

"Just got out of prison." Murakami replied.

"Then why are you going to the Maori Detective Agency now?" Meng Yu stared at Murakami's father with a stern look.

Murakami looked at Hanemiya Akira and Meng Yu strangely: "You don't seem to be afraid at all of me, a gangster who dares to take hostages in the Metropolitan Police Department?"

"Afraid?" Yu Gongming and Meng Yu laughed at the same time.

The next moment, Yu Gongming suddenly took action.

A few seconds later, the man was pinned to the ground with a standard grapple.

Yu Gongming let go of the suppression, pulled Murakami's father-in-law up, and said with a smile: "We have seen a lot of gangsters more cruel than you, and we have arrested a lot of them."

Murakami's father was a little confused by this series of actions by Akira Hanomiya. After a long time, he came back to his senses and asked in confusion: "Who are you?"

"Ming Yu, a detective." Ming Yu said calmly.

Murakami suddenly realized: "So you are the detective Hanomiya who has been as famous as Mr. Mori recently. How disrespectful."

"You haven't answered my question yet, why did you go to the Maori Detective Agency?" Akira Hanamiya asked.

"I just want to thank Mr. Mori in person." Murakami said.

"Huh? Thanks?" Yu Gongming was stunned.

"Yes!" Murakami's father hurriedly explained: "Although I was still a little resentful towards Mr. Mori at first, the moment I was released from prison, I suddenly felt relieved."

Murakami sighed: "At least now, I can walk on the street openly, instead of hiding in dirty rental houses or walking through dark alleys or sewers like I did ten years ago."

"Although Mr. Maoli was the police officer who arrested me, after I held his wife hostage, he personally forgave me when he testified in court. This at least saved me several years of my sentence."

"I also heard about it later. Because of that incident, he not only resigned from the First Investigation Division, but also separated from his wife."

Murakami's father said this, with a look of guilt on his face:

"To be honest, he is the one who should least forgive me."

"I went to the Maori Detective Agency this time just to thank Mr. Maori in person, for his forgiveness at the time, and for his willingness to give me a chance to start a new life."

Yu Gongming looked at the sincere-looking Murakami abbot and thought in his heart:

"I remember that this guy was a character who appeared in the movie, and was used as a scapegoat by the real murderer, but I have no impression of his own attitude towards Uncle Maori."

Yu Gongming stared at Murakami's father-in-law: "You don't have anything dangerous on you, right?"

"How could it be! I really went to express my gratitude to Mr. Mori. If you don't believe me, you can search me!" Murakami said with excitement.

"Okay, I'm offended!"

Akira Hanomiya was also decisive and stepped forward directly to start searching Murakami's father-in-law.

Murakami was also stunned. He only said this to show his sincerity. Why did the young man in front of him take action directly?

However, although he was somewhat dissatisfied with Yu Gongming's behavior, he did not resist Yu Gongming's body search.

After a while, Yu Gongming returned to Meng Yu and nodded slightly: "Sorry, I'm rude. It seems that I am judging a gentleman with a villain's heart. Let's go, we will take you to the office."

"It's the best if you can believe me." Murakami smiled.

After that, the three of them walked together. When they turned into the fifth-chome, Hanomiya Akira suddenly frowned.
