Chapter 414: A Strange Mandate

"Wow!! so cute!"

"Eh, this is me!"

"This chocolate is really similar to us!" A few days later, the Maori Detective Agency, because of Valentine's Day, Xiaolan made a lot of chocolate experiments, and the rest of the materials Xiaolan also carefully made them and carved them into children's heads, along with Dr. Asasa's. No, the second day of Valentine's Day. Orchid asked Conan to call the children to the office and give them all the chocolates.

"Can we really take these chocolates?" said Genta grinning happily as she held up the largest piece of chocolate.

"Of course. Xiaolan said with a smile. "I learned this especially for a few of you at the Blowing Hills. ”

"Wow~ Sister Xiaolan is so good~ Thank you~" The children's smiles were innocent, and they were completely immersed in the joy of chocolate.

"It's good if you like it~" Looking at the children's smiles, Xiaolan's mood was also a little better. "Then, I'll make black tea, you guys sit here for a while~"

"Hi~~~" X3

"It seems that you did a good job of bluffing Xiaolan last night?"

"Huh?" Conan looked at Shiho with a confused face. "How?"

"Kaoru's sister must have been sad last night, right? But looking at her state quite well today, did you have any way to get through Valentine's Day?"

"Ah, a little bit of a trick. Conan scratched his head.

"I have to say it's really hard for him. I also shrugged my shoulders in frustration.

When I got home last night, Valentine's Day, I heard Conan tell you about what had happened to them at Blowdown Hill, and that this unfortunate kid would have been killed on Valentine's Day. This also affected Xiaolan's class to learn how to make chocolate. But then the garden's boyfriend, Kyogoku, appeared in an extremely strong way and brought the atmosphere back. This made Xiaolan and their group not so bad.

After that, Conan and the others returned to the office, and that night, perhaps because of the fact that Sonoko and Kyogoku really sprinkled a handful of dog food, Xiaolan was both envious and sad, and almost ate the piece of chocolate that she had worked so hard to make, for which Conan was also depressed and didn't know what to do, but fortunately, it didn't take long for Xiaolan to fall asleep on the sofa because of the fatigue of the journey and the sadness of crying.

Then, at this opportunity, Conan quietly ate all of Xiaolan's chocolate, and at the same time took a picture of Xiaolan's sleeping face, and sent the photo with the name of Kodo. Pretend that Kudo has already come. And Conan himself ran to the door of the office in a gloomy manner, waiting for Xiaolan to wake up.

After about an hour, Xiaolan woke up slowly, Conan also hurriedly dialed the phone, and then the person walked back upstairs to talk to Xiaolan on the phone. And I took advantage of the time when the two of them were on the phone, turned on the computer, and made a video call to Jingliu, I can't forget her on such an important day.

It took nearly two hours of phone calls on both sides, which allowed the four of them to sleep well, of course, after talking to Jingliu on the phone, I also called Zhibao, but Zhibao said that he still had to look at the information for a while, so he hung up the phone in a hurry after only a few words.

"Anyway, yesterday was a great joy for all. "I stretched. "Come, Xiao Ai, try the chocolate made by Sister Xiaolan. I went to the middle of the children, picked up the chocolate from Shiho's head, and put it in her hand.

“。。。 Shiho held the chocolate and stared at it for a moment, eventually putting it in his mouth. Soon, those smart eyes flashed with a glimmer of light

"Wow!!! It's delicious. Compared to Shiho's calmness, Motota directly expressed his innermost thoughts.

"It was just as delicious as the one sold outside. ”

"That's it. The other two children chimed in.

"Ahem!" may be the children's joy that makes the dad with headphones a little unhappy at this time. So he put his hand on his cheek and reminded him with an irritable voice, "I said, can you be a little quieter, I can't concentrate on work." ”

"Ah, sorry, sorry, we'll go back right after the black tea. Dr. Asa smiled at him, but on the other side, the corners of his mouth twitched. Because of the amplification of the sound after the operation, my father's headphones were turned on to the maximum sound, and I could still hear it relatively clearly.

"I said, uncle, are you really working?" and perhaps because of the reprimand, the children gathered around the father sitting at the desk and began to question.

"I've heard that every day my uncle sleeps a lot. ”

"Stupid, aren't I listening to a client's tape right now?" Dad pointed to the headphones on his ear, but his slightly trembling eyebrows had almost exposed his lie.

Syllable~

The sound of the headphones being pulled out was soft, and the extremely loud broadcast of live horse racing came over the radio. Not only did it scare the children, but it also made the father sitting at the table panic.

"Uncle. . . What is this?"

"It's a horse race, right?" Motota and Mitsuhiko narrowed their eyes and asked their father for an explanation.

"Ahh This, ah, this. ”

Ding dong~~~

It was too late, and the doorbell of the office was suddenly ringed.

"Ah, here it is, please wait a moment!" Seeing that there was an excuse to break away from the children's questioning, the father quickly got up and ran to the door to open the door.

"Welcome~" The father who was in good condition opened the door, and outside the door was a middle-aged man in a brown suit. Then he said shyly.

"Ah, no, I'm sorry. I.. I'm here to ask you to help me find a missing watch. ”

“。。。。。。 ”

———— the taste of the orchid, the taste of lavender, the taste of the home & the wings of the angel, the wings of the devil, the wings of the guardian————

"My name is Hideo Goda, and I have come to entrust you to find me a watch for my late wife. "It was an old-fashioned clockwork watch, a gift from my wife. ”

"How could that watch still be there?" Yuan Tai, who didn't know the situation, asked what he was thinking regardless of the occasion.

"Isn't your lady dead?" Ayumi said.

"Ah, I see, is the watch in the pawnshop?" The three children of the detective group did not realize it at all, which made the father sitting in the middle of them hate it.

"No, actually... In fact, my wife would give me a dream every night, and in the dream, she would always ask again, what time is it, what time is it? As he spoke, Hideo's face turned frightened.

"Aha, ahahaha. I guess you're too tired. There was a supernatural scene, and my father couldn't help but break out in cold sweat on his forehead, and the children next to him were even more frightened and closed their mouths.

"Actually, that's what I thought. But.. Hideo Goda lowered his head and looked afraid.

"So, did Madame Zun lose her watch when she went out, or was it stolen by a thief?"

"No, I think the watch is probably still in my home. ”

“。。。 Huh?"

"Because, because my wife has always been reckless, sometimes I will spend the whole day looking for a lipstick to put under the magazine. I often say that by the time she finds it, she will probably have become an immortal. ”

"What are you kidding!" Dad's face instantly enlarged in front of Hideo Goda. "You won't find what you lost in your own house!"

"But, but me... I'm bigger than my wife's personality, I... ”

"I'm the famous Maori Kogoro! I don't have time to deal with such trivial matters!"

"Eh, you, are you the famous Mori Kogoro?" said Hideo Goda was a little overwhelmed when he heard his father's name.

"Strange ... I suddenly muttered, having been silent.

"What?" Shiho asked sideways.

"It doesn't make sense. I frowned slightly. "There is such a big sign on the window, and there is also his father's name on the billboard downstairs, why is he so frightened when he hears his father's name?"

"Could it be that you're thinking too much?" Shiho was clearly not interested in this case.

"Look, you see, Uncle is ready to be lazy again. Behind the father, the three children began to mumble.

"yes, it's like a store that wants to turn down customers and do it yourself. Mitsuhiko looked disgusted.

"Besides, there shouldn't be a big or small case in the first place. Ayumi also expressed her opinion.

"These stinky little devils... Dad gritted his teeth and muttered quietly, but it was true that Dad also felt that he was a little too much in this matter, and at least he had to give the client a step down.

"Ahem, ahem. Of course, if you must find this watch, I can. ”

"Oh no, no, I'd better find someone else. Hideo Goda hurriedly got up and waved his hand, and then walked out of the door of the office. "Sorry to bother you. After the words fell, Hideo Goda left.

"Oh, that's interesting. ”

"Oh, that's interesting. ”

Two small voices sounded, causing Zhibao to look at him at the same time, and cast the same look, which clearly meant that when did the two of you have such a tacit understanding.

"Oh, Kaoru, you're also interested in this watch-finding thing?" Conan looked sideways at me.

"Not at all. I shrugged.

"And what do you mean by that?" Conan put a question mark on his head.

"Hmmm... I'll not talk about it yet. A smile tugged at the corner of my mouth. "You're going to follow up anyway and help someone solve this case, right?"

"Hey, hey, hey. Conan laughed sheepishly. "Even if I don't go, don't you understand the way the children are ready to go?" I saw a kind of light burst out in their eyes, and they hadn't done anything for a long time. And pulled the doctor and began to go in the direction of the gate.

"What else can I say? I shrugged my shoulders again and kept up with the kids and Conan. And Shiho was also stunned for a short time, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he smiled softly. Shaking his head, he kept up with us.
