Conan: Another Famous Detective

The next day.

Akira Hanomiya and his party got on the Shinkansen back to Tokyo.

It’s just that there are more Hattori Heiji and Kazuha in the team.

Thanks to the Suzuki Consortium, this time a few people rarely enjoyed first-class box treatment.

In a spacious closed box, Akira Hanomiya, Mengyu, Conan, and Hattori Heiji sat opposite each other.

Hattori Heiji was talking to someone on the phone at the moment.

"Oh! Okay, I understand, thank you, Officer Otaki!"

Hattori Heiji hung up the phone and looked at Hanomiya Akira and the others with a very solemn expression: "According to Officer Otaki, there was no trace of Kidd in the lake where Kaito Kidd was suspected to have fallen."

"Is there some undercurrent under that lake that could have washed away Kaitou Kidd?" Conan asked.

Hattori Heiji shook his head: "Probably not. The water in that lake is very calm. It is almost impossible for a person to be washed away if he falls in."

"So, Kaitou Kidd should have escaped on his own, or was rescued by his companions?" Meng Yu guessed.

"It's very possible. After all, he is a world-famous Phantom Thief. He shouldn't die so easily." Conan nodded in agreement.

"But why did that person want to snipe Kaitou Kidd? Is he Kaitou Kidd's enemy, or..."

"Is it because of the Egg of Memories that you are targeting Kidd?" Akira Hanomiya silently picked up Hattori Heiji's words.

"Huh? Why do you think so, Hanomiya?" Conan looked at Yumiya Akira.

"Because of the broken monocle." Akira Hanomiya replied:

"The monocle was broken, probably due to being hit by a bullet."

"I have observed the cracks in the glasses, and those lines obviously appear when the bullet hits the center of the glasses."

"Rather than a coincidence, I prefer to believe that this was done deliberately by the mysterious sniper."

Hattori Heiji raised his eyebrows: "You mean, he deliberately aimed at Kaitou Kid's right eye and shot?"

"Well, this is what I think is abnormal. You know, when there was a power outage in Osaka at that time, we were attacking flying targets like Kaitou Kidd."

"If the goal is to kill Kaitou Kidd, whether it is aiming at the chest or the head, it will be easier than deliberately aiming at the right eye."

"After all, Kaitou Kid's right eye is wearing a monocle. Who knows if the bullet can kill Kaitou Kid in the end?"

"But the sniper still did it..." Hattori Heiji said thoughtfully.

Akira Hanomiya continued: "Combined with the fact that Kaito Kidd's target this time is the Egg of Memory, a relic belonging to the Romanov dynasty, this information reminds me of an internationally wanted criminal I once saw in the files of Kudo House."

"Internationally wanted criminal?" Conan's expression tightened.

"Who is it?" Hattori Heiji also asked eagerly.

Akira Hanomiya said calmly: "He is an international killer who specifically targets various treasures of the Romanov dynasty. This killer has a special behavior habit."

"When killing a target, he likes to shoot the victim's right eye."

"Right eye..." Conan's pupils shrank!

"Wait a minute, is this professional killer you are talking about Hanomiya Shi Kaobing?" Hattori Heiji asked in a serious voice.

"That's him!" Yu Gongming nodded.

"Shi Kaobing?" Conan obviously had never heard of this name.

Therefore, Hattori Heiji gave a more detailed explanation to Shi Kaobing based on Ha Gongming.

After listening to Hattori Heiji's popular science, Conan pushed up his glasses:

"If it was really that soldier who sniped at Kaitou Kidd, does that mean he was also eyeing the egg of memories belonging to the Romanov dynasty?" Conan frowned.

"Maybe this is just a coincidence. Although Kaitou Kid was shot in the right eye, it doesn't mean that it was definitely Shi Kaobing who did it." Hattori Heiji said with relief:

"After all, Kaitou Kidd steals gems everywhere, and the owners of those gems are all rich or noble people. Maybe it's the guy who resents Kaitou Kidd for stealing his gems and hired a professional killer to kill him?"

"Hattori, even for other professional killers, things don't seem to be much better, right?" Meng Yu glanced at Hattori Heiji and said.

Hattori Heiji scratched his head and laughed: "At least other professional killers won't necessarily target the Memory Egg, right? This way at least we should be safer when we go to Yokosuka Castle in the future."

"In short, we still have to be careful when going to Yokosuka Castle in the future." Conan said solemnly.

"Of course." Yu Gongming nodded.

In fact, he was quite surprised when he heard that Kaitou Kidd was still being sniped. After all, he had already reminded Kuroba Kaito about Shi Kaobei before;

Moreover, this time Kaitou Kidd did not get the Memory Egg under Akira Hanomiya's plan. Logically speaking, Shi Kaobing did not need to snipe Kaitou Kidd.

However, on second thought, Kaitou Kidd, the magician under the moonlight, also regarded the Egg of Memory as a target. If he could get rid of this strong competitor, Shi Kaobing might not mind killing him.

Judging from the current situation, Kaitou Kidd should be fine. He will probably join the Yokosuka Castle group later.

"Conan, Hattori, Kuroba, Shi Kaobing... it's so lively!" Akira Hanamong sighed in his heart.

…………

Tokyo, Yoneka Town, Dr. Agasa's house.

"This is the doctor's house you are talking about. It is right next door to Kudo's house. I didn't notice it at all when I stayed at Kudo's house before!"

Hattori Heiji looked at the house in front of him curiously.

"At that time, why didn't you play with Ye from morning to night? All the residents in this house like to stay at home, so of course you didn't notice." Yu Gongming said with a smile.

While the two were talking, the door to the doctor's house was pushed open, and the petite brown-haired girl walked out slowly.

"Eh? This child is..." Hattori Heiji wondered.

"She is just like me." Conan said calmly.

"Eh? What do you mean..." Hattori Heiji's expression suddenly changed in the middle of his words:

"Wait, could it be said that she..."

"Yes, it's just what you think!" Mengyu nodded.

Hearing this, Hattori Heiji's eyes immediately changed when he looked at Xiao Ai.

Xiao Ai walked through the front yard to the gate calmly. She opened the door on tiptoes and looked at Hattori Heiji with cold eyes:

"Is he trustworthy?"

Obviously, Xiao Ai heard the conversation between several people just now.

"He has known about Conan for a long time and also knows about the organization. Although he is a bit reckless, he can be trusted." Akira Hanamiya explained.

"Hey! What do you mean, you are a bit rash!" Hattori Heiji muttered dissatisfiedly, and then looked at Xiao Ai:

"Hello, Miss, my name is Hattori Heiji. I am a famous high school detective in Kansai. My reasoning ability is even stronger than Kudo!"

"Oh? Who made the wrong reasoning about the diplomat incident last time?" Conan asked with a sneer.

Hattori Heiji's expression froze, and he was a little confused: "That was a mistake! A mistake!"

"Haha!" Conan turned his head to the side, looking disdainful to argue, which made Hattori Heiji feel angry for no reason.

Xiao Ai listened to the conversation of several people and took a deep look at Hattori Heiji.

Hattori Heiji looked at Xiao Ai and suddenly felt a chill in his back.

The next moment, Xiao Ai looked away and said calmly: "Hui Yuan Ai, please give me more advice."

"Um, please give me some advice..." Hattori Heiji came back to his senses and hurriedly returned the greeting, while he felt a burst of curse in his heart.

"Why does this girl feel scarier than when He Ye was angry?"

Seeing that there was something wrong with Hattori Heiji's expression, Hanemiya Akira gently patted his shoulder: "Let's go in first."

Later, Hattori Heiji followed Hanomiya Akira and others into Dr. Agasa's house.
