Conan: Another Famous Detective

"As everyone knows, we have invited two world-famous detectives to the island this time. Now, we invite Mr. Moori Kogoro and Mr. Hanomiya Akira to appear!" Kinoshita Goro announced loudly.

There was a burst of cheers and applause from the audience.

Akira Hanomiya, dressed in formal attire, walked slowly onto the stage, followed by Kogoro Mouri, who was slightly swaying in his steps.

Mouri Kogoro is still in a semi-drunk state. This is because Meng Yu told Xiaolan to prepare sobering medicine in advance. If he hadn't taken the sobering medicine, who knows what Mouri Kogoro would be like now.

"Hello everyone, I am Yu Gongming." Yu Gongming said with a smile.

"I am the famous detective Mouri Kogoro..." Moori Kogoro's voice was a little soft.

The audience burst into cheers and applause again.

"To celebrate the arrival of the two famous detectives, let's ask the two famous detectives to help us pull the lottery ball!" Kinoshita Goro said.

"Wait a minute!" A cold female voice suddenly sounded.

Before the sound fell, people were already on the stage.

"What's wrong?" Yu Gongming cast a questioning look at Meng Yu who walked onto the stage.

"Don't you smell it?" Mengyu asked.

"Huh?" Yu Gongming frowned, his nose twitched for a while, and then he raised his eyebrows:

"Take your uncle down first!"

Mengyu knew that Yu Gongming had already discovered the clues, and after nodding slightly, she forced Mouri Kogoro, who was still a little confused, to leave the stage.

The situation on the stage caused a burst of whispers in the audience.

"Detective Hanomiya, this..." Kinoshita Goro said doubtfully.

Yu Gongming looked at the colorful balls above and said calmly: "It seems that some people don't welcome our arrival very much."

As soon as he finished speaking, Akira Hanamiya suddenly pulled the rope under the colored ball!

The next moment, the colorful ball exploded, but what exploded was not flying debris, but a blazing flame!

Yu Gong was prepared early in the morning and quickly moved aside. The falling flames did not hurt him at all.

The flames burning crumbs of colored balls burned tenaciously on the stage. This scene made Kinoshita Goro and the audience exclaim.

Kinoshita Goro reacted quickly and hurriedly called the staff to use a fire extinguisher to put out the fire.

After all, it was a small-scale flame. With the continuous spraying of several fire extinguishers, the fire was quickly extinguished.

Conan and Yu Gongming stepped forward to check the burned ashes, and saw a suspicious square thing in the ashes at a glance.

"It's a ignition device. As long as the colored ball is pulled, the gasoline will explode." Hanemiya Akira said.

"The colored balls had been kept in the storage room backstage. Most of the staff were busy in the front lobby. The only one in the backstage at that time was the uncle in the lounge. It seemed that Hamada came out of the back door... or rather Aoki is highly suspicious," Conan analyzed.

…………

"What? Is this an accident!?" Mouri Kogoro looked at the village chief Mikami Takeo in disbelief.

"Yes, it was because we accidentally put the device into a gasoline barrel when installing the colored balls, and the leakage caused the accident." Takeo Mikami said sincerely.

"How could this be an accident?" Conan said excitedly.

"I said, this was an accident. I have already explained the reason. Please believe me!" Takeo Mikami's tone changed subtly.

"Oh? You don't want the police to get involved in the investigation? I see, you never thought about handing over the gold to the country from the beginning, right? If the police get involved, your plan to embezzle the gold will be ruined. Am I right? Huh?" Mouri Kogoro sneered.

Hearing this, Mikami Takeo's original friendly smile gradually turned into a sneer:

"Mr. Mori, Detective Hanomiya, you just need to quietly look for gold. You don't need to worry about the rest. If you go against my wishes, I can't guarantee that you can leave this island safely!"

"Asshole! How dare you threaten me? I tell you, I won't do this!" Mouri Kogoro said angrily.

"Hmph! The liaison ship will not sail without my permission. You should think about it tonight!"

Mikami Takeo said and slowly left the room.

"Well, I'm really sorry. Our village chief wants the gold for the development of the village. Please don't mind. If you want to leave, I can arrange a boat to take you away tomorrow morning." Kinoshita Goro said apologetically.

"Let me go, but I still won't leave!" Mouri Kogoro said angrily.

"But, if you don't leave, you may be in danger!" Kinoshita Goro said anxiously.

"No! If I just leave like this, where will the name of my famous detective Mouri Kogoro go?" Moori Kogoro said righteously.

"Don't worry, Mr. Kinoshita. Since we choose to stay, we naturally have our considerations, and we appreciate your kindness." Hanemiya Akira said with a smile.

"Oh, okay." Kinoshita Goro sighed helplessly and left the room.

When Kinoshita Goro left the room, Conan followed him out.

After a while, Conan returned to the room.

"It's getting late now. Xiaolan and I will go back to the room first." Meng Yu said.

This time, there were five people in Hanamiya Akira's party, and a total of two rooms were allocated. Mouri Kogoro, Conan and Hanamiya Akira lived in one room, and Xiaolan and Mengyu lived in one room.

"Well, get up early tomorrow and look for gold." Yu Gongming said.

So Mengyu and Xiaolan also left, leaving only Yu Gongming and three other men in the room.

After Mouri Kogoro complained about the village chief's bad attitude again, he was ready to rest.

Conan and Akira Hanomiya also laid out the bedding, and the room quickly became dark.

…………

In the early morning, Conan sneaked out of the public hall.

Outside the gate of the public hall, Yu Gongming and Meng Yu had been waiting for a long time.

"You guys are so slow." Yu Gongming complained.

"I can't help it. My child's body is too easy to fall asleep now. If Uncle Maori hadn't started snoring, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to wake up and would have kept you waiting." Conan said awkwardly.

After the speech was canceled, the three people made an appointment to go out to investigate in the dead of night.

"Okay, stop talking nonsense, let's go to the lighthouse now and have a look. That Hamada is most likely the murderer of the colorful ball explosion in the afternoon. The lighthouse he locked up may have a lot of clues." Mengyu urged. .

Hanomiya Akira and Conan nodded slightly, and the three of them walked towards the lighthouse.

Halfway through the journey, Yu Gongming suddenly stopped.

"What's wrong?" Meng Yu asked in a low voice.

Yu Gongming made a silent gesture and listened.

A few seconds later, Yu Gongming frowned and whispered to Meng Yu and the others:

"follow me."

As he spoke, he ran in one direction.

Although Mengyu and Conan were a little confused, they still followed Yu Gongming's footsteps.

The three of them ran all the way and soon came to a forest.

Yu Gongming slowed down his pace, and his steps gradually became lighter. Meng Yu and the two behind him also subconsciously slowed down their steps.

As soon as they stepped lightly, Mengyu and Conan's expressions changed at the same time!
