In order to hide her embarrassment, Shiho Miyano took the initiative to pour two cups of coffee and a cup of milk.

Conan looked at the milk in front of him, then at the coffee of the other two, and twitched his mouth slightly and said, "Why is mine milk?"

Shiho Miyano glanced at him and said naturally, "Children can't drink coffee."

Conan's forehead darkened: You two are playing together, right?

Conan wanted to say something, but Yuya held his head down: "Okay, stop making trouble, listen to the results of Yueshui's investigation."

Conan had to swallow his resentment back into his stomach, secretly thinking that he must teach this pair of dogs and women a lesson one day!

Yueshui Nanatsuki didn't know Conan's true identity yet. Facing the conversation between several people, he treated it as if they were playing with children. He opened the file bag in his hand and began to turn the pages.

"The background of the photo you gave me is Tsutenkaku in Osaka. Since it was taken ten years ago, I estimated that Rena Mizunashi was about 17 or 18 years old, so I investigated all the high schools near Tsutenkaku, but I didn't find any students named Rena Mizunashi."

Regardless of how Nanatsuki Koshimizu investigated the school, as a detective, there must be some connections, so You didn't ask any more questions.

"No?" You was not surprised at all. After all, the name Rena Mizunashi was fake. It would be really strange if you could find anything.

Nanatsuki Koshimizu nodded: "That's right. At first I thought she didn't go to high school there, maybe she just appeared there after school, but I investigated ten years ago, whether it was kindergarten, elementary school, or junior high school, there was no such name."

The school district system in Neon is divided according to the address, which means that children go to school in the district where they belong in principle.

In this case, even if Rena Mizuno's high school was not near Tsutenkaku, her kindergarten, elementary school, and junior high school should most likely be in schools near Tsutenkaku.

"I also took the photo you gave me and asked some long-term residents near Tsutenkaku, but they only knew about the famous female host, and no one had seen her when she was young."

There is no record in the school, and even the residents nearby have never seen Rena Mizuno ten years ago, which means...

Natsuki Koshimizu said slowly: "That is to say, Rena Mizuno may not be a student there, and it is just a coincidence that she appeared near Tsutenkaku."

"Or, this person just looks similar to Rena Mizuno, but is not actually her."

"Of course, there is another possibility..."

"The name Rena Mizuno itself is fake." Yuya suddenly said.

Natsuki Koshimizu nodded in agreement.

Her expression suddenly became serious: "Kamiya, I don't know why you asked me to investigate Mizunashi Rena, but for some reason, I always feel that the identity of that woman is not simple. You must be careful."

Before Yuya answered, Koshimizu Nanatsuki laughed to herself again: "Forget it, a famous detective like you doesn't need me to remind you."

Yuya didn't know how to answer, so he could only smile politely.

"However," Koshimizu Nanatsuki picked up another piece of paper, "Although I didn't find any information related to Mizunashi Rena, I got a lot of information about another person, Hondou Eisuke. When I asked with his photo, someone said he remembered what he looked like when he was a child."

"Really?" Yuya raised his eyebrows.

Nanatsuki Koshimizu nodded, looked at the paper in his hand and said, "The person who knows him is the owner of a shop selling okonomiyaki near Tsutenkaku. He said that this Hondou Eisuke often came to the shop with his father to eat when he was a child."

Conan asked anxiously, "What kind of person is his father?"

Natsuki Koshimizu looked at him strangely, and then said, "According to the shop owner, he is a person who doesn't like to talk much and doesn't like to take pictures, so I only asked his last name, which is Hondou, well, this is also natural."

What else could Hondou Eisuke's father have if not Hondou? The shop owner also said that this man doesn't look like a live-in son-in-law.

"Is that all?" Conan was a little disappointed.

"Don't worry, there's more." Nanatsuki Koshimizu said, "The boss said that the man sometimes brings colleagues to eat together, but he hasn't seen the father and son since a few years ago. The boss thought they moved away."

"Colleagues? Do you know what he does?" Yuya asked according to the script.

Nanatsuki Koshimizu shook her head: "I don't know. The owner of the okonomiyaki shop has changed. The current owner has only met that man, but he said that the previous owner was very familiar with this man named Hondou. The two of them often chatted in the shop after closing."

Yuuya touchedTouching his chin: "Do you know what they talked about?"

Natsuki Koshimizu shook his head: "I don't know about this. I wanted to ask the former store manager, but he has passed away..."

Conan was shocked. Could it be that he was killed by the organization?

"...It seems that he died of illness due to his old age and complications such as inflammation."

Conan breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out that he thought too much. He was immediately disappointed. If the former boss had passed away, then the clues about Hondo were cut off?

Yuya chuckled and said, "Koshimizu-san, you should have found more than this, right?"

Koshimizu Nanatsuki smiled proudly: "Of course, if it was just this, how could I have the nerve to come and report to you."

She picked up another piece of paper and said, "The previous store manager had a grandson who he loved very much. He studied in Osaka for four years and often went to this store to eat, so he should have seen the man named Hondou."

"What about that grandson? Have you found out his information?"

"Of course, he is now running a model store in Tokyo. I will send you his name, phone number and address later."

Yuya nodded slightly: "Okay, thank you very much."

Koshimizu Nanatsuki waved her hand: "Don't be so polite, I won't charge you the commission this time, just consider it as a favor to you."

Miyano Shiho looked at Yuya in confusion. What favor?

Conan understood something. It should be something from the time of Detective Koshien, right? If Yuya hadn't solved the case in advance and exposed the identity of the high school detective, based on his experience in solving cases, I'm afraid that Tokatsu Junya would have been killed by Koshimizu Nanatsuki.

"By the way, there is something I want to remind you. The identity of the man named Hondou seems to be unusual."

Yuya raised his eyebrows: "Oh, what do you mean?"

Koshimizu Nanatsuki said seriously: "According to what the current store owner said, the colleagues that man brought were not a group of people each time. At least half of them were foreigners, and their clothes were also strange. They didn't look like office workers, but more like..."

"Wearing all black clothes, it seems like he just attended a funeral, right?" Yuya took over the conversation.

Nanatsuki Koshimizu showed a slightly surprised expression, "How did you know?" But she immediately reacted: "Yes, since you asked me to investigate, you must have some clues, so it's not surprising that you know."

"Also, those people have many names for that man, and Hondou's surname is just one of them. Considering that he is Hondou Eisuke's father, I think Hondou's surname should be his real name."

"Okay," Nanatsuki Koshimizu put down the paper and waved at the screen, "These are what I have investigated, and the rest can only rely on you."

Yuya waved: "Okay, thank you very much."

The video was hung up.
