Conan's other self

"Am I..." Conan said expressionlessly, "should I thank you for not keeping me in the dark this time?"

Feng Yuan blinked innocently.

Yesterday, Conan followed Uncle Mouri and Xiaolan to find Kenzo Hirota and came home very late, so he couldn't help but take a nap today.

As a result, he was not "lazy" for long before he was woken up by the phone and found the note left by Xiaolan on the table.

After learning that Uncle Maori and Xiaolan had gone out to find Kenzo Hirota, Conan answered the phone himself.

The call was from Fengyuan.

Then he was called to Dr. Ali's house by Kaedehara, and was told the general story of the matter.

After hearing the news about the organization, Conan was obviously very excited. But then he realized that this time he was the last to know, and he became depressed again.

Hence the strange saying.

Looking at Feng Yuan with an innocent look on his face, Conan scratched his hair helplessly, thinking that although he was the last to know this time, at least he didn't find out until the end of the matter like before, which made him feel a little better. Then he sighed and said, "Okay...but I still have questions."

"You didn't say how you found out." Conan asked.

"I happened to bump into Miss Akemi on the way home that day," Fengyuan explained. "Then I bumped into her by chance. She had changed her appearance."

That day, Maplehara did go out with Hirota...oh no, Miyano Akemi at about the same time. Conan nodded, "So you doubt her?"

"yes."

Conan didn't understand, "Is that why?"

"That's why."

"…Okay, then what?"

"Then I remembered that you accidentally stuck a transmitter on Miss Akemi's watch - I saw it all," Maplehara continued, Conan blushed a little, "So the next day I followed the signal from the transmitter. Go find her. You know the rest."

"...What about the case?"

"I told you," Fengyuan said perfunctorily, "I called the taxi company and asked about Hirota Kenzo's situation."

Conan somewhat doubted whether he was not suitable for being a detective.

He had also learned about Hirota Kenzo's situation at the taxi company from Uncle Maori before, and also knew that Hirota Kenzo often ran back and forth on the same route - but he did not connect this matter with the billion-yuan robbery at all.

Just because he and Feng Yuan mentioned the robbery case that morning, he thought of it?

Conan couldn't help but feel jealous of himself.

He also thought that he was the subconscious mind.

After a while, Conan calmed down again and decided to reveal the matter: "Where did those two guys go?"

This obviously refers to Kudo Yusaku and Kudo Yukiko.

Maplehara has already mentioned to Conan that he came back twice.

"I'm going to see Miss Mingmei." Feng Yuan replied.

"Why did you go out to meet? Here -" Conan said, and then realized, "You still don't trust Miyano Akemi?"

Feng Yuan nodded.

Although Kudo Yusaku believed in the judgment of "Kudo Shinichi", after all, it was related to the safety of his son. After discussing with Kudo Yukiko, Kudo Yusaku finally decided to meet Miyano Akemi outside to confirm her situation in person, and Learn about gin.

So early in the morning, Kudo Yukiko put makeup on the two of them and went out. Although she trusted Miyano Akemi, for safety reasons, Maplehara did not directly tell her the information about the Kudo couple. , I just said that I am a trustworthy person.

The three will meet in the Rice Flower Hotel.

Fengyuan originally wanted to follow him because his keen perception would help ensure the safety of the meeting.

but…

"Don't underestimate me, dad, Shinichi."

Kudo Yusaku's words still dispelled Fengyuan's thoughts.

So Maplehara took on the important task of explaining the situation to Conan.

In addition, Maplehara also told Conan the general framework of the plan jointly formulated by Kudo Yusaku and "Kudo Shinichi".

"There is a question." After learning about the action plan, Conan asked again. "In this case, we have to find Hirota Kenzo first, right? After so many days, we have no clue at all."

"Oh... that..."

Conan had a bad feeling in his heart.

"We already have some ideas." Feng Yuan said.

…

Two days later.

Maori Detective Agency.

"I'm so sorry! Give me some more time!" Uncle Maori apologized to the phone, "Don't worry, I will definitely find it today...yes...this time for sure!"

"Is it Miss Yamei calling again?" Xiaolan asked after watching her father put down the phone.

"Yeah, I called him early in the morning to ask." Uncle Maoli was a little depressed, "It's been so many days and there's no clue at all... That guy doesn't know what's going on, he doesn't interact with anyone, and there's no one among his colleagues. Know where he is going..."

"Are you still looking for it today?" Xiaolan glanced worriedly at Conan who was yawning at the side.

She herself wanted to help Miss Yami find her father, but she was afraid that Conan, who had been following her because of the school holidays these days, might not be able to handle it.

Yesterday, they came back very late. They were in a hurry to go to bed, so she suggested taking a bath with Conan. Unexpectedly, Conan refused directly and went to bed without taking a bath.

Conan must be very tired, he is only a child after all...

"Of course I'm going," Uncle Mouri said, interrupting Xiaolan's thoughts, "I don't believe there is anyone in this world that my famous detective Mouri Kogoro can't find!"

"But we can't search like this!" Xiaolan objected, "Aren't there any clues?"

"Would I be so tired if there were clues?" Uncle Maori rolled his eyes and was about to get a can of beer to soothe his sorrows, then he heard Conan ask a question.

"Sister Xiaolan, sister Yami said that her father likes horse racing, right?"

"Eh? Is there one?" Xiaolan was stunned for a moment.

"It should be... yes?" After hearing what Conan said, Uncle Maori became unsure.

"Uncle, you also like horse racing!"

"So what!" Uncle Maoli said angrily. He had been too busy for several days to watch the horse racing.

"Yes!" Xiaolan said, "Dad! You have the same hobbies as him, think about where he might go!"

"Where will it go? If it were me, it would definitely be the racetrack -"

Uncle Maoli was startled.

"Xiaolan! What are the names of Kenzo Hirota's cats?"

"Cat? Oh...I remember it's called Kuai, Di, Hao, Wang..."

"King Kuai Di Hao?" Uncle Maoli, who had just looked excited, fell down again, "I have no impression."

Conan couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.

The King of Speed ​​is the name of a very famous horse, and Uncle Maori must know it. He thought Uncle Maoli had reacted just now.

Unexpectedly, I fell at the last step.

"Don't talk about this," Xiaolan said, "Shall we go to the racecourse?"

But anyway, the goal was achieved.
