409. Detectives from all sides
At some point, a person appeared in front of the road, holding an umbrella, like an old demon in the mountains under the illumination of the headlights.
Maori Kogoro was startled, and quickly stepped on the brakes, and Kankan stopped in front of the man.
Seeing that he didn't hit anyone, Kamikawa breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately his car didn't become an accident car.
"Hey! It's scary for you to stop in the middle of the road like this, okay? Mori Kogoro rolled down the window, poked his head out and roared angrily.
"I'm sorry. My baby Fiat suddenly couldn't move, so I'm here waiting for someone to pass by. β
Stopping the car was a small old lady with a pair of small round glasses on her nose. Wearing a suit and a top hat, he has the air of a scholar.
"FΓΌrth is ......" Seeing that it was an old lady, Maori Kogoro was a lot less angry.
The old lady pointed ahead, and a small white car stopped on the side of the road, "You guys are also going to the Dusk Annex, can you give me a ride by the way?" β
"Uh... That's fine, it's just full, so I'm going to bother you to squeeze in. β
"I have another request, could you please help me carry my Fiat luggage."
"I'll help you move." Kamikawa instantly opened the car door and got out of the car. He looked up at the sky, where the raindrops were trickling and the street lamps were dimly glowing.
"Is there only one box?"
"Yes, I'm sorry for you." The old lady watched the young man carry his luggage, this young man was very strange, she had never seen this face on the TV news or in the newspapers.
Kamikawa put his luggage in the trunk and sat back in the co-pilot.
Mori Kogoro handed him a handkerchief, and Kamikawa took it and wiped the rain off his body.
The old lady sat in the back seat, flipping through her book by the light of the car. Conan looked curiously, guessing the identity of the man.
"Dad, how long will it take......"
"What's wrong?"
Xiaolan poked her head out and approached Maori Kogoro, a little embarrassed: "I suddenly want to go to the toilet....."
"It's really ......" Mori Kogoro lowered his eyelids, very helpless.
"This young lady, don't blame me for being too talkative." The old lady in the back seat suddenly spoke, and while she was reading the book, she said nonchalantly: "The principal of the elementary school in our town used to tell people: 'A person who can succeed is a person who will never give up any opportunity. He who always waits for the same opportunity to come, no matter how long it takes, the opportunity will not come. Got it? β
Xiaolan was slightly stunned, not quite understanding what the old lady meant.
"There should have been a toilet at the gas station just now, wouldn't it be convenient for you to stop by at that time?"
Seeing that Xiaolan was stunned, Conan looked up at her, "Mother-in-law, how did you know that we passed by a gas station just now?" β
"Little brother, this question is too simple." The old lady closed the book and patiently explained to him, "You see that the ashtray over there is empty, and the cigarette butts in it are still fresh cigarettes that have just been smoked for a short time, and the ashtray will be full, which means that the people in this car are smoking fiercely." But now the ashtray is empty, and the only place to clear the ashtray is the gas station ten kilometers ago. β
She smiled and continued: "A gentleman who will carry a strange old lady on the road can't naturally throw a cigarette butt out of the car window in front of his daughter, right?" β
The old lady's reasoning shocked several people.
Maori Kogoro looked at her slightly, "Old lady, may I ask who you are?" β
"My name is Chima Demo, and I'm a detective like you, Sleeping Kogoro~"
"A thousand generations!"
Xiaolan looked shocked, "You are the famous ...... who is in a wheelchair and can easily solve a case just by listening to people talk about it."
"You're right. It's not very convenient for people to do anything when they get older. Senma reached out and took the ashtray from the front, "I see that this ashtray will be put here for the time being......
"Don't smoke in front of me until we get to the villa! I'm the one who hates the smell of cigarettes. β
Maori Kogoro pursed his lips, there was nothing he could do with her.
Kamikawa instantly propped his head and looked out the window, the rain gradually became heavier, and the night was getting darker and darker.
The car climbed to the top of the hill and drove over a wooden bridge.
Kamikawa sighed imperceptibly, this bridge probably won't be good......
The gate of the villa was open, and there was a row of cars parked in the parking apron.
Kamikawa instantly got out of the car with his umbrella and looked up at the villa. When I looked at it from a distance, I felt eerie, but now that I look closer, this gloomy atmosphere has not diminished but increased.
Xiaolan hurriedly ran into the villa to find the bathroom, and Conan looked at the cars parked in a row.
"There are so many expensive imported cars!"
"Mercedes, Ferrari, and Porsche...," Mori Kogoro looked as he walked, "Wow! And Alfa Romeo! β
"That's so cool!"
"Hey! Don't touch my woman with your hand. There was a man sitting in the car, he opened the door and got out of the car with an umbrella, "It took me five years to get my hands on this hot woman, and other men touch it with dirty hands, and I can't bear it if it loses its temper." β
The man was wearing a green suit and a cigarette in his mouth, and the whole person looked a bit playboy cynicism.
"Long time no see, Brother Motegi." Senma greeted him, "They invited you too?" β
"It turned out to be Sister Qianjian, so are you?"
Motegi... Conan was shocked, could it be that this man is the famous detective Haruki Motegi?
Shinichi Kudo, Kogoro Mori, Senma Demote, Haruki Motegi...... The other party actually invited so many detectives and brought so many detectives together, what was his intention?
The group walked to the door and knocked on the door.
A maid opened the door to greet everyone, "It's Mr. Motegi, Mr. Mori, Mr. Kudo, and Ms. Kamama, I've been waiting for you for a long time." β
"Kudo?" Chima looked at Kamikawa, "Are you Shinichi Kudo?" β
Kamikawa squinted and chuckled, "No, I'm here instead of him, my name is Kamikawa." β
Chima lowered his glasses and looked at him carefully, "Also, you don't look like Kudo Shinichi." The boy had often seen him in the newspaper some time ago, but he hadn't seen him much recently. Did something happen to him? Need you to come in place of him? β
"He's busy with other things, and he can't get out, so he asked me to come."
Several people walked into the villa, and Kamikawa's eyes stayed on the doorknob for a moment. He looked at the interior of the villa, the entire interior of the villa was also quite gloomy, and the dim light cast a blurred color on the various utensils in the villa.
An eagle flew down from above, and the white horse detective walked down the stairs, and was slightly surprised to see Kamikawa.
"Senior Kamikawa?"
