Tuesday, January 9th, afternoon, Rice Flower Town.

After school, Conan sent Gray Yuan to a separate place, and after standing at the intersection and watching Gray Yuan go away, he sighed, this guy is still worried.

After that, Conan went to the place where there was something strange in Gray Plains yesterday to do an investigation, and found that there were many facilities nearby, such as houses, apartments, department stores, cinemas, game halls, various stores, etc., and there was no way to make the next judgment, so he was ready to go back, but he heard Ran's shout, and followed the prestige, and found that Ran, Sonoko, Midako, and Yamazaki were coming.

"Little ghost, if you don't come home from school and hang around here, you don't want to go to the game hall, do you?" asked Sonoko with a wicked smile and pinched Conan's face.

Yamazaki thought to himself, this is where he met yesterday, that Belmode.

"What a thing. Conan pushed the garden away and rubbed his face, "It's you, what are you doing here?"

"The garden asked us to accompany her to take two big stickers. Mei Daiko said.

"Headshot?" Conan didn't understand.

"For sending letters. Lan smiled, "This is popular now." ”

"Is her sweater knitted?" asked Conan.

"Don't mention the sweater to me. Yuan Zi gritted his teeth and said.

"What's going on?" asked Conan.

"The sweater knitted by the garden was tricked away by his father. Mei Daiko smiled.

Lan smiled: "Uncle deliberately misled the garden, and as a result, the size of the weaving was ......."

"Poof!" Conan couldn't help but laugh, causing the garden to give him a chestnut.

"Alright, let's go take a picture. Lan said.

After that, the five of them went to the game hall, and the garden took a lot of photos on a row of big head sticker cameras.

Yuan Zi patted his schoolbag and smiled contentedly: "Now it's okay, we can go back." ”

Walking to the door, the five of them found that there were many people around a game console in the game hall, and after a closer look, the garden lost its voice and said, "It's Teacher Judy." ”

"Why is she playing games here?" Lan wondered.

Mei Daiko said, "Just go and see." ”

Conan pulled Yamazaki slowly, "She's your teacher?"

"Yes, the English teacher is from the United States. Yamazaki smiled, "According to the latest survey results of the news agency, she is tied with the new teacher as the most popular teacher." ”

At this time, Conan walked up to Judy-sensei, and found that she was a blonde beauty, and thought of what Gray Hara said, Belmode appeared in the form of a blonde beauty, and frowned for a moment.

Ms. Judy played a shooting game that used a game gun to shoot, and finally cleared the level without losing a single life, and broke the record, which received a round of applause.

Listening to the people around him say that he broke the record again, and seeing that the scores on the record were almost the same, Yamazaki thought to himself, it seems that Mr. Judy is using shooting games to practice marksmanship.

Yuan Zi stepped forward excitedly and said, "You are so powerful......

"Huh?" Sensei found the three of them and immediately pulled up the garden and said in strange Japanese, "Oh, it's a few of you, come, come, I'll ask you to drink." At the same time, he gave them a look and told them to go with her.

After a while, Teacher Judy took the five people to the rest area of the game hall, ordered a drink, and complained, "Ah, why can I always touch students lately, and the teacher's salary is not very much." ”

Yamazaki laughs, "There are a lot of head-to-head cameras here, and this one has become popular recently. ”

"Oh, I see. Teacher Judy said.

Lan asked, "Well, in that case, do you come here a lot to play games, Teacher Judy?"

"Shhh It's too difficult for foreigners like us who don't speak Japanese well to find a job in Japan, so it's a secret that I'm playing video games here, so you must keep it a secret for me. ”

Yuan Zi asked unexpectedly: "You often disappear after work, do you ......all come here?"

Teacher Judy said excitedly: "Yes, the Japanese games are very beautifully designed, and they are very interesting, and the games imported into the United States are very popular, I have to queue up for a long time in the United States every time, and when it is my turn, I am almost exhausted, so I will come here to be an English teacher, so that I can have fun here every day." ”

Conan was speechless, it turned out to be a super game fan.

Mei Daizi said: "Then let's do it, I'll give you a game console and some straps, and you can play at home in the future." ”

Teacher Judy said: "No, no, this thing is very power-intensive, it's better to play here cheaper, and if you're lucky, you can get some prizes back." ”

At this moment, a large screen on the wall lit up and began to play a fighting scene, and a group of people gathered in front of the screen to watch.

"What's that?" Lan asked.

"It's the most popular fighting game here, where you sit on a special seat, you can control it with punches and kicks, and you will feel a slight pain when you get hit. Whenever someone fights, the big screen lights up. ”

"This is what it is. Mei Daiko said.

"Is it fun?" asked Sonoko.

"It's not suitable for me to play with Lan, and I'll shrink back when I fight too much. Mei Daiko said, "But you can play in the garden, if you want to play, I will teach you later." ”

Teacher Judy said: "Then you have to wait, now you are fighting Caesar the Great, who is known as the invincible opponent of Rice Flower Town, and Lucas, who is known as the invincible opponent of Rice Flower Town, and Lucas, who is known as the invincible opponent of Cup Town, they have been playing here recently, and I heard that the boss here invited them to come, so as to increase the popularity here." ”

"Then let's go back, I don't have that much time to wait here. Mei Daiko said.

At this time, one of the two characters fighting on the big screen suddenly took a beat, and after receiving a series of attacks, he fell to the ground and couldn't afford to lose the game.

Teacher Judy said: "In the first game of the day, it seems that Lucas won. ”

Yuan Zi smiled at Teacher Judy and said, "Then, let's go first, you can play slowly." ”

Teacher Judy smiled, "Remember to keep it a secret." ”

Lan smiled: "Got it." ”

At this time, the screams of women sounded on the big screen, mixed with the call for an ambulance, the police, if he was dead.

"Sister Lan, you go and guard the door. Conan ran away.

Seeing Mr. Judy watching Conan go away with interest, Yamazaki sighed inwardly.

The garden complained, "Go, why should we listen to this little ghost?" ”

"Alright, let's go, don't let people run out. Lan said.

"I'm going to call my uncle. Mei Daizi smiled, "When there is an incident, how can there be no uncle." ”

Seeing that the three of them were gone, Teacher Judy smiled at Yamazaki and said, "Yamazaki-san, this uncle that Miyamoto-sam said can't be the father of Maori-san, right? I have long wanted to meet the famous detective Mr. Kogoro Maori, he must be a character like Sherlock Holmes." ”

"Uh......" Yamazaki thought that in addition to drinking and watching TV at home in the past two days, Maori had gone out to drink and play mahjong with friends, and he didn't know how to answer for a while, so he had to change the topic, "You stay in our school, is there anything going on?"

Teacher Judy smiled, "Oh, do Yamazaki-san still suspect that I'm a bad person? It's so sad, but I'm teaching you English very seriously." ”

Yamazaki said, "That's why I hope you don't do anything unwise. ”

Teacher Judy was silent for a moment, and then said, "Please rest assured, I know what I'm doing. "Then I wanted to say something.

It's just that at this time, Yamazaki saw Conan leaning over and beckoning to him, so he said to Teacher Judy, "Then I'll miss the company first." Then go and meet Conan, "What's wrong?"

Conan took Yamazaki out of the rest area, and then said, "That Julius Caesar of Rice Flower Town is dead, but I always feel that there is something wrong with the cause of death. ”

At this time, the ambulance and the nearby police arrived, and the ambulance personnel found that the person was dead and left, and the police began to maintain order and wait for support.

Yamazaki and Conan rushed to the scene and found the deceased a man in his twenties with dyed blonde hair, sitting in a game chair with his hands raised flat, his feet dangling in the air, and salivating on his lips.

"He had a needle hole at the base of his left palm, probably when he was playing a game, and he was suddenly hit by a neurotoxoid that paralyzes and kills quickly," Conan said. ”

"It turned out that the wound was there. Yamazaki said.

Conan pulled Yamazaki to the side, "It's just that when he's playing a game, how can the murderer prick him with a needle? And no matter how violently poisoned, a needle will not kill him immediately, even if he is concentrating on playing the game and not paying attention to someone pricking him with a needle, but someone should always know after touching his hand, even if the murderer's movements are fast and not seen, the poison on the needle paralyzes the wound, and there is no pain, but if he is disturbed during the game, he should be able to shout." ”

Yamazaki said, "Maybe it's an acquaintance who didn't see the needle and didn't feel pain, thinking it was an acquaintance joking." ”

"That's what I thought at first, but after I walked around the crowd, my detective instinct told me that the killer might be that person," Conan said. He pointed to a man in his twenties who was standing in the corner chewing gum and smoking.

"Why him?" asked Yamazaki, "because he's in such an easy state right now?"

"Yes. "But I don't think about him at all, though." ”

"Isn't it? Why is that?" Yamazaki asked, then reacting, "Wait, he's not going to be this opponent Lucas, right?"

"Yes, he is the game opponent of the deceased Julius Caesar in Rice Flower Town, Lucas of Kakuto Town, who was sitting in another chair playing the game at the time. Conan said excitedly, "With three meters between the two chairs, and between them and the audience watching them play, he is the least likely person to commit a crime." ”

Yamazaki asked angrily, "Do you need to be so excited?"

Thinking of yesterday's incident, Conan thought to himself, this kind of event is the event I want now, and only by solving this kind of incident can I feel a sense of accomplishment.

At this time, Yamazaki's mobile phone rang, it was Mori, and he arrived in a taxi. ……

Soon after, the rest area.

Maori's eyes immediately lit up when she saw Teacher Judy, "Ah, this beautiful woman ......" was pinched hard by Lan and screamed in pain, making both Meidaiko and Sonoko laugh.

"Ahem!" Lan said, breathlessly, "This is Teacher Judy who taught us English. ”

"Hara, it turned out to be a teacher. Maori smiled dryly, "Hello teacher." ”

Teacher Judy said happily, "Oh, you're the famous Maori detective, and I'm so happy to see you." ”

"Uh," Maori asked happily after hearing Judy's strange Japanese for a moment, "have you heard my name abroad?"

Judy smiled, "Oh, I only heard about it when I arrived in Tokyo, but I'm sure your name will travel across the ocean." ”

"Is that so?" said Maori, smirking. ……
