Conan: Another Famous Detective

Watching the man leave, Hattori Heiji frowned: "Who is that guy?"

"A journalist who is somewhat famous in the United States." Akira Hanomiya said calmly:

"This guy is very keen on reporting scandals about well-known athletes. Although most of the content is fictional, he has almost never lost in court with his brilliant writing."

"I see, he seems to be an unpleasant guy..." Hattori Heiji muttered.

"Ah! It was just an accident..." On the stage, the host tried to guide the banquet back on track:

"So, does anyone else want to ask the three of you questions now?"

The guests in the audience did not give any reaction to the host's words, but instead whispered in the audience.

The host was already sweating behind his back, but his professionalism as a host allowed him to control the expression on his face and continued: "Please don't be polite. If you have any questions, just ask them. It's okay!"

However, there was still no one in the audience who wanted to ask questions.

Just when the host was almost desperate, a white arm suddenly appeared in his sight.

As if grasping a life-saving straw, the host immediately said loudly: "Okay! There is a lady who wants to ask a question. Can I invite this lady to come to the stage?"

Xiaolan put down her raised arms, lowered her head and smiled at Conan, and then walked slowly towards the stage.

After a while, she came to the three bosses.

"So, miss, what's your problem?" the host asked.

Xiaolan felt a little nervous when she saw so many people in the audience looking at her. After hesitating for a moment, she said: "Um...actually, I came up to...have a request."

Both the host and the three bosses were stunned when they heard this.

When Xiaolan saw the expressions of several people, she became even more embarrassed. Then she quickly took out a notebook from behind, lowered her head and handed the notebook to Ray Katis:

"Can...can you ask Mr. Lei to sign your name for me?"

"Oh?" The three bosses looked at each other, and a trace of amusement flashed across the faces of Rika Barre and Mike Nord.

Ray Katis' thoughts changed in his mind, and for a moment he didn't know how to deal with it.

Seeing that Ray Katis didn't respond, Xiaolan's face became more and more uneasy, and she asked awkwardly: "Isn't it possible?"

"Well... we are not accepting autograph requests tonight." The host explained awkwardly between Xiaolan and Ray Katis.

"Ah? Is that so..." Xiaolan lowered her head in disappointment when she heard this.

At this time, a voice suddenly came from the audience: "Hey! Lei, it's rare that this young lady is so brave, can you have the heart to refuse?"

"That's it! It would be rude to refuse such a lovely lady's request!" Someone else shouted.

"Yes! Look, this lady is so sad, she is about to cry. Lei, please sign her autograph!"

"Haha! Don't worry, Miss, we will help you get your autograph!"

There were constant cheers from the audience, mixed with good-natured laughter.

As soon as Lei saw the atmosphere on the venue, his heart moved, and then he raised his hand and gently pulled away the host, smiling: "OK! OK! Since this lady has restored laughter to this venue, of course I am willing to make an exception and sign one for you. name!"

"Eh? Really?" Xiaolan's originally disappointed expression was instantly replaced by surprise.

"Of course!" Ray Katis smiled, and then took out a blue jersey with the number 8 from behind:

"How about I sign it on my jersey and give it to you?"

"Is it really possible?" Xiaolan's eyes lit up again!

The host's expression changed, and he quickly leaned into Ray Katis' ear and whispered: "Isn't this... inappropriate? These uniforms will be drawn by lots for the guests later..."

"What does it matter? There are three more, right?" Ray Katis waved his hand carelessly, indicating to the host that he didn't need to say any more.

Seeing this, the host could only smile bitterly.

There is no other way. He is the boss and I am a part-time worker. Whatever the boss says, I can do whatever I want.

Ray Carters took the pen and was about to sign the jersey. Seeing this, Xiaolan hurriedly said: "Well, can you write a few more words on the jersey?"

"OK! What's your name, Miss?" Ray Katis asked. He thought Xiaolan wanted to add her own name.

Xiaolan immediately waved her hand and said: "No, no, you misunderstood. You didn't mean to write my name. Can you please add [TO Shinichi] after your signature?"

Ray Katis was stunned for a moment, then showed a kind smile: "I see, is he your boyfriend?"

Xiaolan's pretty face blushed slightly: "That...it's not yet..."

"Oh? I understand, no problem!" Rekatis understood something from Xiaolan's words and agreed to Xiaolan's request with a smile.

In the audience, Conan looked at Xiaolan quietly, watching Xiaolan take the shirt with a face of joy. She was obviously not a fan of Ray Katis, but after getting the signed jersey, she seemed even happier than his number one fan. .

He looked at Xiaolan with more gentle eyes and whispered softly in his heart:

"Thank you...Xiaolan."

On the side, Heye looked at the No. 8 uniform in Xiaolan's hand, with a puzzled look on his face: "Hey, that's so weird!"

"Huh? What's wrong with you?" Hattori Heiji asked.

"Look..." Heye pointed to the signed jersey held by Xiaolan: "Generally speaking, isn't the number on the back of the goalkeeper always No. 1? Why is Lei's jersey number 8?"

"Because Ray was originally a midfielder..." As the number one fan, Conan was obliged to explain: "In a World Cup game, both goalkeepers of the team had already left the field."

"The team didn't have a goalkeeper at all at the time, and that's when Ray came on."

"Then he blocked several shots from the opponent and qualified for the final."

"In other games that followed, he played as a goalkeeper with the number 8 on his back. After joining the U.S. Soccer Federation, this number has been used."

"Is that so? Then... what does that 99 mean?" Heye pointed to the uniform that Mike Nord picked up: "That man plays baseball. Isn't the number 99 too many?"

"Well, it means 99 miles, which is about 160 kilometers per hour. Just because he can throw the ball so fast, that's why Mike uses 99 as his number?"

"So what about that 4?" He Ye directly transformed into a hundred thousand whys, asking questions one after another:

"Look, on that boxing glove, in addition to the signature, there is a 4 next to it. What does that mean?"

This time it was Hanamiya Akira's turn to speak: "That's because every time Rika competes, he will solve his opponent in the fourth round, so every time he signs, he will conveniently add a 4. next to his signature."

"So that's it..." He Ye looked like he suddenly realized something.

"I said, this kind of thing should be clarified before coming here, right?" Hattori Heiji said contemptuously.

"Stop blabbering! How could I deliberately understand such a thing!" He Ye shouted in anger.

Of course, the reason why she reacted so violently was because she had no way of telling Hattori Heiji. The reason why she came was because she suspected that Hattori Heiji had another [woman].

After listening to Xiaolan's explanation before, she found out that she had made a mistake, so she felt very embarrassed.

Seeing this, Hattori Heiji seemed too lazy to argue with her. He snorted and said nothing more.

"Sorry! I'm back!"

Following the pleasant voice, Xiaolan returned to everyone.
