Chapter 263: An Invitation from Osaka
Gin is suspicious of him, but sends his teacher over to keep an eye on him.
Maybe in the perception of the gin boss, Belmode is the kind of hardcore teammate who will not betray the organization no matter what, and can be absolutely trusted.
It's a pity... It's a 1v9 battle after all.
Thinking of this, Lin Xinyi's expression was very exciting.
Without waiting for him to express any emotion, Belmode went on to himself:
"So, I need to stay here a little longer."
She gently brushed the silver hair that was wantonly spread behind her ears, and her two long legs, as white and delicate as ivory, slowly hung down from the sofa together, and changed the lazy lying down to a serious sitting:
"Gin is now suspicious of your connection to the FBI, and on the other hand, he is worried about your safety."
"After all, he can't be sure who that inner ghost is, and he doesn't know how much that guy knows about the situation in the laboratory."
"If the location of the laboratory is leaked to the FBI's inner ghost, and this inner ghost knows more information about the laboratory, then it is very likely that you who used to work in the laboratory have been secretly targeted by the FBI."
"So Gin is going to send someone to monitor your movements 'for a long time', and at the same time, to keep you safe."
"And I'm the one who got it."
As he spoke, Belmode smiled helplessly at the corner of his mouth:
"Although neither the so-called FBI nor the inner ghost actually exists..."
"But I can't be too perfunctory to dispel that guy's suspicions."
"Now that I've only come back to accompany you for 5 days, if you finish the mission and leave so soon, Gin probably won't feel at ease."
She is not only the mentor sent by Gin to care about Lin Xinyi's psychological condition, but also a monitor and protector.
Belmode has a long-term task ahead of her.
And from the time she came to Lin Xinyi's side, although it seemed particularly long because there were murders every day, in fact, the two only stayed together for 5 days from beginning to end.
"I understand..."
"I also hope that the teacher will stay a few more days."
Lin Xinyi nodded understandingly:
"It's just that you and Xiao Ai... No, Shiho. ā
"Can you... Forehead... Get along harmoniously. ā
Thinking of the tense atmosphere between Gray Yuan Ai and Belmode just now, he had to bite the bullet and unskillfully mediate the relationship between the two women in the family:
"Teacher, to be honest..."
"The conflict between you and the Miyano couple should not be transferred to Shiho."
Hearing this, Belmode's brows furrowed slightly.
The words "Mr. and Mrs. Miyano" seemed to evoke some not-so-good memories, which quietly clouded her sparkling eyes.
And looking at Lin Xinyi, who was carefully waiting for her answer, she quietly laughed again:
"Don't worry."
"That childish and incompetent anger, I have completely let go."
"That's good." Lin Xinyi breathed a sigh of relief.
But Belmode re-said a sentence:
"Now I'm just simply hating this woman named Shiho Miyano."
"It has nothing to do with her parents."
Lin Xinyi: "......."
He asked helplessly, "Why?" ā
"It's simple." Belmode raised his eyebrows: "I'll just ask you one question:"
"If Shiho Miyano was trapped under the water crystal yesterday, who would you give that air bottle to?"
"Forehead..."Lin Xinyi's scalp was numb for a while.
His eyes were torn as to how to answer, but Belmode just stared at him with burning eyes, as if he had to come up with an answer.
In this suffocating tense air, Lin Xinyi's mobile phone suddenly rang, and a phone call saved him in time.
It's a phone call at work.
But it's not his old partner, the Twilight Police Department, but Minister Odakiri, who rarely contacts him directly.
"Minister Odakiri?" Lin Xinyi picked up the phone with some surprise.
"Hmm." Minister Odakiri's words were still so concise and direct: "There is a serial murder case in Osaka, and I would like to ask you, an expert, to come and help." ā
"Osaka..."
Lin Xinyi frowned slightly:
"That's not the Metropolitan Police Department's jurisdiction, is it?"
Although he has not been working in this world for a long time, he also knows that the Osaka Prefectural Police and the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department are law enforcement units of the same level, and the two are equal in status and do not interfere with each other's work.
The serial murder case is indeed of a heinous nature and has a huge impact, but with the scale and strength of the Osaka Prefectural Police, there should be no need to invite any experts from Tokyo to guide them.
"Well, this time it's a special situation."
"Actually, this is mainly because of the head of the Hattori Headquarters of the Osaka Prefectural Police, who is personally interested in your methods and ideas for handling cases."
"So he wants to take this opportunity to ask you to come over and help solve this serial murder case, and use you as an example to promote the use of forensic science and technology in the Osaka Prefectural Police."
Minister Odakiri explained the reason behind the invitation.
Saying that, he usually doesn't smile, but he deliberately smiled and encouraged:
"Officer Lin, this time you have to represent our Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department and behave well in front of the Osaka Prefectural Police."
"I heard that the head of the Hattori headquarters has a great appreciation for you, and it will also be very beneficial for your future development in the police industry."
"Hmm... I will. ā
Lin Xinyi took over this task, but muttered in his heart:
"The head of the Hattori Headquarters of the Osaka Prefectural Police, how does he know me?"
"Wait... Is that guy? ā
A second-generation official appeared in his mind.
...........................
"Heiji Hattori..."
On the way home to send Xiao Ai, Conan was also chanting the name in confusion:
"Xiaolan, what is this guy calling you for?"
Just now, Mao Lilan also received a phone call, and this call was from the famous detective in Kansai, Hattori Heiji.
He returned to Osaka after his miserable defeat in the last "showdown" with Maoliran, and because of his erroneous reasoning in the murder of diplomats, he became famous in the newspapers of Tokyo and Osaka -
Of course, all that Jan is infamous is.
After all, Heiji Hattori can't even compare to Miss Maori, who is a half-way monk...
The famous detective in Kansai actually lost to the karate champion of Kanto in terms of reasoning.
Newspapers in Tokyo say that the Kansai detective is actually difficult to live up to and does not deserve to be as famous as the Kanto.
Osaka's newspapers criticized Hattori's limited level and lack of representation of Osaka.
One case even provoked a geographical attack between the media in the two places.
And in such a public opinion environment, the mood of the Hattori detective must be very unwilling.
"He called..."
"Do you want to challenge you again and find a chance to be ashamed?"
Conan pushes himself and others, speculating about Hattori's intention to contact Xiaolan.
"No... Conan. ā
Although Conan's identity was already known, Maorilan still referred to him as Conan in private.
On the one hand, looking at this little dot in front of her, she always felt a little unaccustomed when she shouted "Shinichi".
On the other hand, Conan himself will feel a little strange when he hears Mao Lilan shouting "Shinichi" - because of a certain psychological shadow that he has cultivated for a long time, he always feels that this "Shinichi" is calling others.
"Conan, you're thinking too much."
"Mr. Hattori isn't really that competitive, he cares about reputation."
Mao Lilan shook his head and said naturally:
"Although the newspapers continue to criticize him, he doesn't seem to be bothered by it."
"And his personality has become much calmer since the diplomat's case, even if he talks about murder, he won't... Uh..."
She thought about it and found an appropriate analogy:
"It's not going to be as fanatical as Conan when you talk about Sherlock Holmes."
"This...."Conan was slightly stunned, and the detective's head, which had not been used for a long time, instantly reacted: "Xiaolan, that guy often calls you to chat?" ā
"Huh?" Maolilan was still a little hesitant.
Conan's eyes suddenly became sharp:
"That guy went back to Osaka a week ago."
"If you weren't in regular phone contact, you wouldn't know as much about his personality changes."
"Yes..."Mori Lanneh nodded sneeringly, not feeling anything wrong at all: "Mr. Hattori calls every day to ask me about the details of Mr. Lin's case." ā
ā.......ā
Conan's gaze became more and more solemn:
"This guy calls single high school girls every day..."
"Is he really just trying to talk about the case?"
"This..."Mao Lilan finally reacted, this little childhood sweetheart of hers was really about something.
Her pink cheeks flushed for a while, and she couldn't help it, and gave Conan a brain collapse in shame:
"Conan! What are you thinking..."
"When you used to be with me, didn't you only talk about cases?"
Speaking of his former self, Conan was a little embarrassed.
But he suddenly felt that something was wrong:
It is true that he used to only talk to Xiaolan about the case, but chatting and chatting... Isn't it just about confession?!
"This bastard..."
Conan's vigilance soared again:
"And what did he call this time for?"
"Or are you talking about the case?"
"No..."Mao Lilan shook his head: "He said that Mr. Lin was going to Osaka on a business trip tomorrow and asked me if I would go with him." ā
"If we go together, when the case is done, he can be a guide and invite us to visit the sights of Osaka."
"Conan, don't think too much..."
Maolilan also added very seriously:
"We're just friends who study reasoning together."
"Mr. Hattori invited me over, and it's just a normal friend exchange."
This is indeed the case.
After that encounter, Heiji Hattori and Moriran didn't know each other, and their relationship grew by leaps and bounds.
Moriran even took the place that was supposed to be Conan, becoming Hattori Heiji's friend and foe.
In this regard, Conan said:
"I'm going to Osaka too!"
He didn't even think about it, so he hurriedly jumped out and made a statement.
"......." Mao Lilan was helpless for a while.
She smelled the childish but funny vinegar of this childhood sweetheart, and couldn't help but shake her head a little funny:
"Since Conan, you're so worried..."
"Then I'm not going."
"Ahem..."Conan bowed his head duciously, "IāI'm not worried..."
"Then let's go!"
Gray Plains, who had been silent, strongly interrupted the young couple's writhing conversation:
"Miss Mori, take me to Osaka tomorrow."
