Rebirth of Conan as a Detective

Chapter 352: Uncle Maori Meets a Counterfeit

Outside the Aoi House Hotel is the intersection of the forest, which is said to be a quite famous suicide forest, but the situation has improved a lot in recent years.

Gao Cheng sat by the window and looked out. His ears were filled with the sound of insects, full of rural atmosphere. After staying in the metropolis of Tokyo for a long time, it is not bad to live in this kind of forest once in a while, and the air is also very fresh.

Of course, it will definitely be unbearable after a long time...

"Oh, detective, you've arrived!" The boss's voice suddenly came from the hotel lobby, "Really, I didn't notice at all...By the way, didn't you say on the phone that three people would come over tonight? ?"

A man in a suit with a mustache stood in front of the counter: "Because I finished the work at hand earlier, so I came here first... Where are the things?"

The hotel owner had a Chinese character face, small glasses, and a small beard under his nose. He smiled and took out a suitcase: "This is the briefcase I mentioned to you. I haven't had anything in it for five years." I've seen it...because it's been locked, I want to see it too..."

"No problem, I will find a way to deal with the lock." Mustache took the suitcase and was about to leave.

"That," the hotel owner hesitated, "can you open it here?"

"You don't have to worry," Mustache snorted, "Once the riddle is solved, I, Moori Kogoro, will definitely tell you right away!"

Gao Cheng walked through the corridor and looked towards the lobby, but he didn't see Uncle Mao Li, only a mustache who helped to sign at the request of the hotel staff and guests, looking very welcome.

"Who is he?" Gao Cheng asked a girl employee in a bathrobe next to him.

"Don't you know? I heard it's a famous detective in Tokyo, Sleeping Kogoro!" The girl asked strangely, "Who are you? It looks like..."

"I'm Kanedaichi, a resident here," Gao Cheng smiled awkwardly, "I've read the reports, and that doesn't seem to be the case with Kogoro Mori, right?"

"This, the boss specially invited here, there shouldn't be any problem... And didn't you say that the big detective is a mustache?" The girl held the signature board expectantly, "Okay, hurry up and ask for an autograph, this kind of place It’s rare for a great detective to come.”

Gao Cheng was speechless.

Is it such a pleasure to meet Uncle Mori? Besides, the mustache in front of me is not that confused uncle at all...

strangeness,

Is Uncle Maori already so well-known? There are even people who specialize in counterfeiting.

Xiao Ai walked to Gao Cheng with her hands behind her back: "The purpose should be for that suitcase, it seems that things are really not simple."

"yes."

Gao Cheng silently watched Xiao Huzi return to the guest room with his suitcase. He didn't know what this man was planning, but he just wrote down the room first.

"I live in Room 209..."

...

There is a small road through the forest outside the hotel. Xiaolan and her party are walking with bags, and the summer atmosphere enveloped the surroundings as if they are on an outing.

"The air here is awesome," Xiaolan said happily, "Sure enough, I should go for a walk in nature more often."

Uncle Mao Li wore sunglasses and looked around complainingly: "Even if the air here is good, there is no need to get out of a taxi and walk through this forest, right?"

"It doesn't matter, anyway, the hotel we are going to go through the forest, and it is still very early from the agreed time, isn't it?"

"I originally wanted to get there earlier and take a good hot bath first."

Uncle Maori sighed regretfully.

Since when did you always take Xiaolan out to work? It was after Conan, the kid, that I seemed to have better luck every time I brought the two of them, although murders often happened...

"Speaking of which, Kido seems to have just arrived in Gunma County, right? Hmph, I meet him every time, he's a plague god..."

"Senior Chenghu should have gone back today." Xiao Lanchao looked at the uncle with concern, "Dad, why are you wearing a pair of sunglasses? Take them off quickly, it will give people a bad impression!"

"How can I do that?" Uncle Mao Li snorted, "I can't let them know that the famous Mao Li Kogoro was bitten by a mosquito on his eyelid, and if there are my detective fans in that hotel, it will be embarrassing. ?”

Uncle Mao Li began to fantasize, with an imaginary expression on his face: It would be even better if there were young girls, and he would be willing to stay a few more days.

A little stone man wearing a red scarf fell down on the side of the forest road, just in front of the uncle, tripping the uncle all of a sudden and falling heavily on his face to the ground.

"Damn! Who put the stone here?!" The uncle rubbed his face and looked at the stone man cursingly.

"It's terrible." Conan followed behind with drooping eyelids.

Just like an uncle, do you still need to use sunglasses to cover your eyelids?

"This is Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva." Xiaolan squatted down to support the stone man in surprise, "I don't know why it fell to the ground, help it up quickly..."

"Don't move, hey!" A policeman from Gunma County, Yamamura Cao, stuck his head out and shouted as a car passed by the path, "If you help that Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva up, you will all be cursed!"

"what?"

Uncle Mao Li looked at the person coming, the corner of his mouth twitched, and a stream of cold sweat flowed down: "It's actually this guy... I'd rather meet Kido kid..."

...

At the Aoi House Hotel, Yamamura Cao drove Uncle Maoli to the door, and immediately a staff member ran out.

"Welcome, I'll help you park your car in the parking lot..."

"sorry to bother you."

Gao Cheng happened to have dinner with Hui Yuan, and when he heard the movement, he looked out the window and saw Conan and his gang walking into the hotel.

The rookie police officer Yamamura Misao, whom I met at Yabuuchi's house last time, is also together...

This guy was also the first policeman he met who was afraid of dead bodies, even more unreliable than Uncle Maori.

"This hotel is really nice." Yamamura Cao walked into the hotel lobby with a sigh.

"Haven't you been here?" Uncle Mao Li wondered, "I just said that I would come to find out about the situation with that employee again..."

"Last time, I asked him to go to the police station for questioning." Shancun said naturally.

"Mr. Police Officer!" A staff member of the middle division approached, "Welcome."

"Mr. Urakawa," Yamamura Misao introduced Uncle Mori, "this is Mr. Urakawa who found the corpse."

Gao Cheng lowered the brim of his hat and walked into the lobby. He immediately saw Uncle Mao Li who was wearing sunglasses and looking flamboyant. He seemed to know about the counterfeit goods, and he was taken as a follower of "Moori Kogoro" with a confused face.

"He's really good, our hotel staff asked him to sign, you see," the boss smiled and took out the signature board and handed it to Uncle Mao Li, reminding, "Don't make it dirty, I'm going to frame it..."

"hehe."

"Sir!" The clerk who helped park the car walked into the hotel and shouted at Uncle Mao Li with a mobile phone, "It seems that Qianjin forgot her mobile phone in the car...Is this Qianyuan's?"

"Ah, yes, I really trouble you."

Uncle Mao Li took the phone, and suddenly saw Gao Cheng leaning against the corridor, his eyes widened.

"Cheng, Kido boy?! Why are you here?"

"Why can't I be here?" Gao Cheng said angrily, "Uncle, that guy is in room 209, go and have a look, I just knocked on the door and ignored me... he should still be in the room .”

"Hush!" Uncle Mao Li grabbed Gao Cheng, and whispered mysteriously, "Don't worry, let me tell you, don't period dramas often have such exciting scenes where the real master meets a counterfeit? I'll bear with it for now." Shinobu, when that guy starts to make ridiculous reasoning, I will reappear and show amazing reasoning power..."

Speaking of which, Uncle Mao Li looked at Gao Cheng with some concern: "Let's say it first, this time it has nothing to do with you, don't interfere!"

"Hello."

Gao Cheng squinted his eyes.

Is now the time to shine? As far as your reasoning ability, and your amazing reasoning strength...

But that’s okay, the counterfeit must have wanted to solve the mystery inside when he took the suitcase, and it might have something to do with the secret of the suitcase.

"Oh, I haven't seen you for a long time, Detective Kido," said Yamamura Cao very excitedly when he saw Gao Cheng, "What a coincidence, the last time we met was at Yabuuchi's house... This time, like Detective Mori, you are here for the man in red Is it over?"

"He said Detective Kido..." The female staff next to him discussed in a low voice, "Is he talking about a detective?"

"I don't know, that person said his name is Jin Tianyi..."

"Cough," Gao Cheng saw the hotel staff looking over one after another, and said with a dry smile, "Let's talk in the room first."

Shancuncao was puzzled for a while, and when he heard the voices of the surrounding residents talking, he reacted and said: "Understood."

"By the way, sir," the boss suppressed his doubts and asked Uncle Maori, "Can I check in first? I still have to prepare a room..."
