Conan's other self

There were many people at the racecourse, and it was obviously not easy to find Hirota Kenzo.

Although Xiaolan's luck has always been very good, "Conan" does not always rely on luck.

Fortunately, there are enough of them to monitor several entrances and exits.

As long as Kenzo Hirota comes in and out, they have a chance to discover him, and "Conan" can create a chance encounter.

But he soon discovered that he really thought too much.

because…

Xiaolan's luck is really good.

"There!" Not long after entering the racecourse, Xiaolan pointed to a man holding a newspaper not far away in surprise. Uncle Maori looked over subconsciously and immediately recognized that it was Kenzo Hirota who he had been thinking about so much these days.

"I actually found it!"

"Conan" silently took out his mobile phone and sent a message, informing Dr. Ali and others sitting in the auditorium near the entrance to go home.

"Dad, look! I'm also a famous detective!" Xiaolan said happily, "I'll call him!"

"Wait!" Uncle Maoli was shocked and quickly grabbed Xiaolan, "He is a missing person! Don't call him, so as not to alert the snake..."

"Let's follow him to see where he lives..." Uncle Maori continued, and then started another thing he often did - stalking.

Uncle Maori is very experienced in tracking.

Hirota Kenzo returned to his home without noticing.

After secretly memorizing the house number of Hirota Kenzo's house, the group returned to the detective agency.

As soon as Xiaolan entered the house, she happily called Miss Yamei to inform her of the good news.

Miss Yami also rushed over quickly.

"Thank you, thank you, Mr. Detective!" Miss Yamei thanked happily, "Thank you, Miss Xiaolan!"

"Thank you, little detective! Thank you for helping me find my father!" Miss Yamei looked at "Conan" seriously.

"It's all my credit, what does it have to do with them." Uncle Maori hummed softly.

Xiaolan pulled her father angrily, and the group took Uncle Maori's rented car to Hirota Kenzo's home.

Kenzo Hirota looked very surprised when he saw Masami Hirota dressed in rustic clothes.

The excited Hirota Masami called "Daddy", hugged Hirota Kenzo, and then pulled Hirota Kenzo back home.

Maori and his party also returned to the detective agency happily.

but…

Xiaolan, relieved of her worries, couldn't help but glance at Conan.

She always felt that Conan seemed a little weird today, and he didn't want to take a shower with her last night... He used to be very active...

Thinking of this, Xiaolan couldn't help but take a closer look at Conan, who was sitting on the sofa as if he was thinking about something.

Speaking of which, Sora and Conan look exactly the same. This child also feels more like Xiao Kong to me. Could it be Xiao Kong pretending to be Conan?

Xiaolan stood up and planned to ask.

at this time…

"Ah, lie, lie~"

A familiar voice came and Xiaolan sat back. It seems that she is just overthinking.

"Sister Xiaolan~" Conan said, "Why is sister Yamei and her father so unhappy when he sees sister Yamei?"

"Eh?"

"Tsk, why do you care so much," said Uncle Maori, "I already have the money anyway—"

"Dad!" Xiaolan said dissatisfied, and then recalled, "But speaking of it, it seems that Conan said this..."

"Tch, most likely he went out alone to do some ghost work...well, he went out alone to do something. He didn't want to be discovered by his daughter..."

Uncle Maoli quickly changed his words mid-sentence, but still found Xiaolan staring at him with dangerous eyes.

Uncle Maoli couldn't help but sweat dripping from his forehead.

"Yeah, maybe he's just a father who goes out and fools around every day and doesn't even listen to his daughter... Are you right? Dad?"

"..."

"It's true!" Xiaolan changed the subject, and Uncle Maori breathed a sigh of relief, "Miss Yamei finally found her father. She might have to quarrel with her father again because of this matter - no, I have to call and ask."

"Hey, they just reunited..."

"What does it matter?" Xiaolan picked up the phone and dialed the number Hirota Masami left. "It's been a while, so I won't bother you if I ask..."

"Huh?" Xiaolan was stunned for a moment.

"What's wrong?"

"It's really strange. It keeps reminding me that the number I dialed is not available..." Xiaolan took the phone and tried several more times, "...no matter how many times I call, it's always like this..."

"An empty number?" Uncle Maoli was stunned for a moment, "Did you dial the wrong number?"

"How could it be! I just called this number to inform Miss Yami!"

"Did they quarrel so much?" Conan asked curiously, "They were so noisy that they broke the phone!"

"Idiot! How can a quarrel ruin..." Uncle Maoli stopped mid-sentence and his face became serious.

Xiaolan, who was worried about the physical conflict between Masami Hirota and her daughter, decided to go back and have a look.

Uncle Maoli was a little reluctant, but he didn't dare to touch Xiaolan's troubles.

"Conan" was relieved and a little regretful. Because if it weren't for Xiaolan's "enthusiasm", he would have given Uncle Maori an anesthetic needle.

The group soon returned to Hirota Kenzo's home.

Then Xiaolan discovered to her surprise that the door was unlocked.

After shouting twice and getting no response, Xiaolan, who felt more and more uncomfortable, opened the door and walked in, where she found Kenzo Hirota lying motionless on the ground.

…

"It's okay, I just fainted." Uncle Maori checked Hirota Kenzo on the ground and said.

Xiaolan breathed a sigh of relief, but then her heart started to grow again.

The room was in a mess, as if something had been rummaged through, and Miss Yami was completely missing...

Xiaolan's mood suddenly became depressed.

At Conan's reminder, Xiaolan quickly called the police.

Uncle Mori also woke up Kenzo Hirota.

However, Kenzo Hirota, who woke up, turned a deaf ear to Uncle Mouri's questions.

He just crawled to the bedside in the bedroom, then glanced under the bed, and kept muttering the words "money, my money".

It wasn't until Uncle Maori couldn't help but grab him by the collar and lift him up that Hirota Kenzo trembled and told the whole story.

He was one of the robbers in the billion dollar heist.

He hid with the stolen money. But not long ago, all this money was taken away by Masami Hirota.

After listening to Hirota Kenzo's story, Xiaolan glanced at Uncle Maori blankly.

Uncle Maori was also a little unbelievable.

After all, just now they thought it was a sad drama about "the daughter looking for her father who went out to fool around", but after a while it turned into a criminal investigation drama about "looking for the robber who committed a billion-dollar robbery".

Feeling depressed that he had been deceived by that hateful woman named Hirota Masami, Uncle Maori quickly reacted and called the Memu Police Department who was already on the way to update the report.

Later, Uncle Maori, Xiaolan and Conan searched the house for possible clues left by Hirota Masami.

"Ah, sister Xiaolan," after a while, "Conan" discovered something and said to Xiaolan, "What is this?"

"This is the hotel room card sticker, Conan," Xiaolan took a look at what "Conan" handed over, "It's from the Rice Flower Hotel."
