Stay away from Conan

Chapter 20 Cold

Hattori and Kazuha came together and looked at the report that Gao Yuan had pulled out from more than 20 years ago.

This is an entertainment news story about a popular actress who got pregnant out of wedlock and retired from the film industry.

The report pointed out that before the actress was found to be pregnant out of wedlock, she had a close relationship with a shareholder of her agency, and was also spotted traveling together. Therefore, the report suspected that the child in the actress's belly was this shareholder. of. The shareholder mentioned in the report is the major stockholder of the magazine that was involved in the car accident, Dongsichuan Toutiao.

"Oh? This is indeed a very important discovery."

Hattori Heiji said, "Is there any further development of this matter?"

"I just checked the relevant reports about this actress on the Internet. It seems that she went to Tokyo after retiring from acting. But I did not find any subsequent information about the child in her belly."

Gao Yuan used the library computer to open several report pages.

"That means there are no reports of her giving birth to a child, nor is there any news of her having an abortion?"

Hattori thought about it.

"If it's all true, it all seems to make sense."

"Heiji, are you saying that this shareholder is looking for this retired actress?"

Kazuo asked.

"No, I think compared to this, I think it is more likely to find this possible child."

Gao Yuan said and opened another report.

"It was revealed that Nishikawa had hired a lawyer to make a will for him six months ago, so some people speculate that his physical condition may no longer be optimistic."

"In addition, he suffered another serious car accident this time. I'm afraid he also knows that his time is running out."

Hattori said.

"So in this case, it is not impossible to find his illegitimate child before his death."

He Ye said.

"But in this case, there will be problems with the distribution of the inheritance."

Hattori smiled knowingly.

"If there is one more illegitimate child, then the distributed inheritance will naturally be one less. As the heir to the inheritance, the editor-in-chief naturally does not want to see this happen."

Gao Yuan explained, "This car accident caused Mr. Nishikawa to be admitted to a private hospital that is inaccessible to outsiders. He cannot take care of himself. Now his communications with the outside world naturally have to go through the hands of the editor-in-chief who is his son. This kind of If he wanted to let the outside world know that he wanted to find his illegitimate child, he would naturally have to use such a coded method. "

"Indeed, it is very possible to say so, but if so, it would be a bit difficult for us to contact Mr. Nishikawa and learn more information. After all, almost every move of Mr. Nishikawa is under the surveillance of his son. Down."

Hattori said.

"Then maybe we can do the next best thing and ask the director."

Gao Yuan suggested, "After all, if this graffiti is to be published, it must go through the hands of the director. After all, he is the one responsible for the review."

"But, do you have any way to enter that private hospital?"

He Ye suddenly mentioned, "Isn't it said that it is difficult for outsiders to contact that private hospital?"

"Why?"

Hearing what He Ye said, both of them were a little dumbfounded. If they couldn't even get into the hospital, then no matter who they were looking for, they would be out of the question.

After thinking for a while, Hattori first thought of a way.

"By the way, didn't the police also go to the hospital and question them? We just need to ask Officer Otaki..."

"When do you want to go? It's almost night now, and we have to go to school tomorrow. And the report also said that the actress went to Tokyo afterwards, do you still want to go to Tokyo to check?"

Kazuha objected to Hattori's idea.

"Well...that's true."

Hattori couldn't refute, "But if you're just looking for someone, go ahead, detective. I'm still more interested in murder cases."

Gao Yuan agreed, almost forgetting that they were all still high school students, and this case was essentially his own promotion challenge. If he relied too much on others, he might fail the challenge. He had to figure out the next thing on his own.

When we walked out of the library, it was already dark.

Under the night, the evening breeze blew gently, feeling a little cold on his body. Gao Yuan clearly felt that the temperature difference between day and night was a bit big today. The cold wind teased the tip of Gao Yuan's nose. After that, he couldn't help but——

"Ah sneeze——"

Gao Yuan sneezed, then felt that his nose seemed to be blocked, and he felt a chill all over his body - a cold?

Thinking about staying up late last night to conquer the household registration system, I might be too tired, which led to a decrease in resistance and allowed the virus to take advantage of it - but the feeling of having a cold is really bad!

"Detective brother? Do you have a cold?"

Hattori asked after seeing Takato's condition.

"Well, I probably caught a little cold last night and now I'm having an attack. It's okay. I'll take some medicine and take a nap."

Gao Yuan said.

"Then wait a minute. I know there happens to be a good medicine sold nearby. I'll buy it for you."

Hattori said and ran out, while Kazuha on the side showed a puzzled expression.

"Strange, why don't I remember there is a pharmacy near here?"

Soon, Hattori ran back with a paper cup in his hand and handed it to Gao Yuan.

"Detective brother, drink this. Then you'll be fine after sweating."

Regarding Hattori's kindness, Takato did not refuse, took the paper cup and drank it, and then he choked - such a spicy taste! You can’t go wrong! It's liquor!

Suddenly, Takato remembered that in the original work, when Hattori first saw Conan who had a cold, he also gave Conan wine to drink. This guy doesn't really think that drinking alcohol can cure a cold by making people feel hot and sweaty! It’s over, I can’t even take medicine now!

"Wait a minute, Heiji, what did you give Mr. Akechi to drink!"

Kazuye smelled the strange smell of the liquid in the cup and asked.

"Oh, I asked the owner of a nearby restaurant for it. It's a Chinese wine called 'Baigan'er'. It's very effective in treating colds!"

Hattori said.

"What! How can you give alcohol to someone with a cold!"

Heye said a little angry.

"It doesn't matter. I'll find a hotel to rest first. The cold will be cured soon! And I don't feel bad now."

Gao Yuan said, still feeling a little speechless about Hattori's behavior - forget it, there is no time limit for the promotion challenge anyway, so let's rest today.

"Are you really okay? Do you want to go to the hospital?"

Kazuha asked worriedly, then glanced at Hattori, the culprit.

"Don't be so exaggerated. I'm not a child. If it really comes down to that, I will go to the hospital myself."

After repeatedly telling Hattori and Kazuha not to worry, he said goodbye to the two of them. Takato found a hotel nearby and was ready to rest.

Lying in bed, I thought that Conan was able to temporarily recover into Kudo Shinichi because of drinking Baigan. I really should thank Hattori for this.

Thinking like this, Gao Yuan felt that the fever in his body was getting more and more serious, and the pain began to spread throughout his body - suddenly, his whole body shook violently.

Such a heartbreaking feeling!

At this moment, Gao Yuan was completely confused - yes, he died from taking APTX4869!
