After Conan and Hattori Heiji felt that they were being watched, they were looking at the crowd over there. Among the two monks in the crowd, the younger monk walked towards Hattori Heiji and the others with a smile. He also made a gesture to shake hands and said to Hattori Heiji:

"Ah! It must be Mr. Hattori Heiji! I didn't expect you to come so soon!"

In this way, Hattori Heiji heard the monk in front of him call out his name and shake hands with him. This made Hattori Heiji look confused even though he didn't know what happened, but he still shook hands with the other person subconsciously. He responded very confusingly:

"Haha... yes, it's me... um, who are you..."

In this way, Conan on the side looked at this scene with complete confusion. He looked at the two people shaking hands in front of him in confusion, completely ignoring the prying eyes he felt just now, and subconsciously felt the source of the eyes just now. It should be the monk in front of me.

In this regard, after hearing Hattori Heiji ask who he was, the monk smiled naturally and explained:

"My name is Ryuuen, and I am a monk at Sannou Temple. Miss Toyama must have told you..."

"Far away mountains?"

Suddenly, Hattori Heiji and Conan were startled when they heard Kazuha's surname mentioned by the other party. Then Hattori Heiji couldn't help but ask:

"You mean He Ye? Was He Ye the one who told you that I was coming here?"

In this regard, Ryuuen couldn't help but be confused when he saw the confused look on Hattori Heiji's face:

"Huh? Isn't it?"

"Yes...what is it!"

At this time, Hattori Heiji was confused by the current situation and asked the monk who called himself Ryuen:

"You...have you met Heye?"

"yes?"

Puzzled, looking at Hattori Heiji's appearance, Ryuuen was also a little confused by the question, but after thinking about it, he explained briefly:

"Miss Toyama just came here today and said that she would help contact you, Mr. Hattori Heiji, to help our temple handle a matter."

In this way, after briefly explaining the situation, Hattori Heiji and Conan roughly understood what happened specifically——

It seems that something happened in this Sanno Temple. As a result, Toyama and Ye happened to come to the temple today. After knowing this, Toyama and Ye helped Hattori Heiji and agreed to let Hattori Heiji come to help. deal with.

As a result, Kazuha did not tell Hattori Heiji about this matter, but Hattori Heiji happened to come to this temple, so the monk mistakenly believed that Hattori Heiji was asked by Kazuha to come to the temple to help.

In this regard, after thinking about all this, Hattori Heiji couldn't help but look depressed——

"Today? What, she's here too?"

Hattori Heiji murmured.

At the same time, the thought of this temple being the place where Hattori Heiji said he met his first love, and now Kazuha has also been here, made Conan a little fanciful and couldn't help but secretly smile.

Immediately, after roughly figuring out the situation, although he didn't know why He Ye came here, and why he promised the monks in this temple that he would come to help, he didn't seem to tell himself, but now that the matter is over , and he himself came, so Hattori Heiji couldn’t help but said:

"Anyway... Master Long Yuan, what happened? Do you need me to deal with it?"

In this way, as soon as he said this, Hattori Heiji acquiesced in his attitude of helping.

So, Ryuuen's expression finally relaxed from the confusion just now——

Although I don't know what's going on, it's a great thing that Kansai high school detective Hattori Heiji is really willing to help.

Therefore, Longyuan was not in a hurry. After all, it was not convenient to discuss this matter in front of outsiders, and there were still guests in the temple.

In this way, as a courtesy, Ryuuen first brought Hattori Heiji to the crowd over there, and briefly introduced the abbot of this temple to Hattori Heiji, the elderly monk Madoka with kind features and squinted eyes. ocean.

Then, Long Yuan introduced the three guests present one by one:

"These three are benefactors of our temple. This is Mr. Sakura Shozo. He runs an antique shop on Teramachi Road."

Sakura Shozo, a middle-aged man with glasses who looked slightly chubby, immediately raised his eyes to look at Hattori Heiji, and said to Hattori Heiji:

"Kansai high school detective Hattori Heiji? I have heard your name for a long time. You are really young and promising."

"This is Mr. Mizuo Harutaro, the young master of the contemporary Noh drama Mizuo."

Ryuen continued to introduce another young man with a handsome face, wearing a kimono, and his demeanor showed that he was somewhat noble.

"And this is Mr. Taiga Saijo who runs a used bookstore."

After Ryuuen introduced the tall and thin man with a tall figure and round-rimmed glasses, he nodded slightly towards Hattori Heiji and said:

"Hello, please give me your advice."

In this way, after introducing the people present, the host Yuan Hai said with his kind smile:

"Rather than being a benefactor, we are actually fellow swordsmen."

"oh?"

Hearing this topic, Hattori Heiji couldn't help but become interested and said:

"So you are all practicing kendo? In fact, I have also dabbled in kendo. If we have time, maybe we can spar."

Thus, through the topic of kendo, Hattori Heiji chatted with everyone present smoothly, and then talked about sparring. Sakura Masazo, the oldest of the three donors, was eager to try, and said to Hattori Heiji:

"Speaking of sparring, I really want to fight with the young people nowadays, so... it's better to do it today than today, and the venue here is not bad. I wonder if Mr. Hattori Heiji would be willing to do it?"

Faced with such an invitation, Hattori Heiji was also willing to give advice, and when he was about to agree with a smile, Ryuen on the side hurriedly stepped forward to interrupt:

"That... Mr. Sakura Masazo, actually Mr. Hattori Heiji came here for something to do, so... how about you two make another appointment?"

Tactfully, Ryuen expressed the hope that they would postpone the competition temporarily, and he had to talk to Hattori Heiji about business first.

Sakura Masazo said that it was okay and he was not in a hurry. He said that he would continue to chat in the temple for a while and come back to discuss after Ryuen and the others finished their business.

Hattori Heiji readily agreed to this, and then Mizuo Harutarou and Saijo Taiga also expressed their desire to stay and witness it.

In this way, the three donors continued to stay in the temple and chat with the abbot, while Ryuen took Hattori Heiji and Conan to the main hall to talk about business...
