Chapter 17: The Three Great Artifacts of East Asia

The words "Emperor Haokuai" immediately attracted Conan's attention.

He turned around and stared straight at the TV, instantly associating the horse's name with Kenzo Hirota's four cats.

In order to prevent himself from making a mistake, he also deliberately wrote down this clue in his notebook, but after staring at it for a few seconds, Conan couldn't help but deny himself: things shouldn't be so simple, maybe it's just a coincidence, it's that he's too sensitive.

Besides, if it's not a coincidence, it's a matter of finding someone from such a large racecourse......

"Huh?" , Xiaolan passed by Conan and accidentally saw his notes, she suddenly picked up the notebook, "Yes, it must be so!" Mr. Hirota: He loves horse racing, and we're sure to find him at the racecourse! ”

Mori Kogoro also came over, thoughtful.

"Hey......," Conan said behind them.

He knew very well that there were thousands of spectators at the racecourse, and there were more than a dozen at the entrance of the racecourse alone, and people were crowded back and forth, and the mobility was also very strong - even if Kenzo Hirota really liked horse racing, and really didn't stay in the racecourse all the time, trying to find him from inside would be tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack.

Unless they find a dozen people, one entrance to guard the other, and guard it for five, six, seven, or eight days.

However, Xiaolan was very optimistic, and she was about to rush over after changing her clothes.

In normal times, Maori Kogoro probably wouldn't follow her around.

But now, a week has passed, and he still has no clues, although he feels that there is little hope, but he still follows his daughter.

Conan twitched the corners of his mouth next to him, not quite wanting to do this kind of useless work.

Bai Shu took off his coat from the hanger, threw Conan's little coat to him, and slapped the protagonist's head in the chaos, "Go and see, Xiaolan is very lucky, maybe she will make the right bet." ”

"Oh." , Conan pushed his hand away with great effort, looking at Xiaolan's happy appearance, and followed him out in the end.

The trio quickly arrived at the Tokyo Racecourse.

At this moment, there is a game going on here, and there are really a lot of people around, not only are they full, but there are also many people standing in the aisle.

Conan and Maori Kogoro looked at the black crowd, their faces turned blue, only Xiaolan was interested, and ran in to look left and right, "It's the first time I've come to the racecourse, it's so spectacular!" ”

She didn't forget her business, and pulled the two and a half men behind her who were not motivated, "Let's hurry up and find Miss Masami's father!" ”

Maori Kogoro regretted it when he entered the door, he didn't dare to say anything on his face, and he whispered in his heart, how could he find it.

Conan and Maori Kogoro coincide with each other's thoughts: Xiaolan is too underestimated to be a detective, how can you find someone who can find it......

"Ahh Xiaolan's surprised voice interrupted their thoughts.

She looked at the aisle in front of her in a daze, Bai Shu followed her gaze, and saw a plump uncle pinching a newspaper and passing by in a low-key manner.

Xiaolan took out the photo given by Masami Hirota, looked at it twice, and the more she looked at it, the more she felt that it was this person, she hurriedly stretched out her hand and pointed, "There!" ”

Conan and Mori Kogoro looked at each other, and they were immediately stunned, it was really him!

Although I have known for a long time that this will be the kind of development, but watching the Ou Huang cast spells up close, the experience is still different.

Bai Shu smiled and praised sincerely, "Amazing, Xiaolan also has the potential to be a famous detective." ”

"Haha, really?" , Xiaolan walked towards Kenzo Hirota energetically, "I'll call him!" ”

“…… This one is better waiting. Bai Shu grabbed her, "Since Mr. Hirota was not taken hostage, then he deliberately did not contact Miss Masami Hirota. ”

Maori Kogoro nodded thoughtfully, feeling that this little assistant was well known to him, "Yes, let's follow him first and see where he lives." "If you run, the monk can't run the temple!

Xiaolan nodded hesitantly, although she didn't think it was good to follow, but her father was a detective after all, and Xiaolan had long recognized this kind of sneaky action.

The sneaky foursome managed to follow Kenzo Hirota's residence.

After writing down the address, the group returned to the detective office, and Mori Kogoro was about to inform Masami Hirota, when the phone rang - the other party had already dialed.

"Miss Masami is really worried about her father, who has so many phone calls in a day." When Maori Kogoro answered the phone, Xiaolan held his cheeks and sat next to him with emotion.

After telling what had happened, not long after hanging up the phone, the doorbell rang.

Shiraki opened the door, and Masami Hirota stood panting at the door, looking like she was running over.

Shiraki's gaze couldn't help but fall on her light eyeshadow and conspicuous lipstick...... It turns out that there is such a big difference between a woman wearing makeup and not wearing makeup.

If it weren't for the iconic round glasses and two braids, it would have been almost impossible to tell that it was the same person.

“…… What's wrong? Masami Hirota was not very comfortable being stared at by Shiraki.

"It's nothing, I just didn't expect you to come so quickly." Shiraki smiled and turned sideways to open the door.

Masami Hirota nodded at him, walked in, and looked at Kogoro Mori excitedly, "Thank you, Mr. Detective, thank you!" ”

“…… You're coming too fast, aren't you? Kogoro Mori had just changed his coat and was about to rest for a while, but now...... He could only silently put his coat back on, ready to take her to her father.

"I'm so happy." , Masami Hirota covered her lips and smiled, she was really happy.

Conan looked at Masami Hirota, always feeling that something was wrong, he looked at the white tree closest to him, "Brother Naoki, do you think she is different from before?" ”

It's really different, the style of the clothes is obviously a lot more fashionable, and there is makeup on the face.

Bai Shu nodded solemnly, "Yes, I've become happier than before, I remember crying all the time when I first came." ”

"......", no, that's not the point! Who asked you how she felt! The corners of Conan's eyes twitched.

is also a girl, Xiaolan also immediately noticed the difference.

But she didn't take this matter to heart, and patiently explained to Conan, "Miss Yami is wearing makeup, and it must be because she wants to see her father, so she is dressed up on purpose." ”

"Oh......", Xiaolan's explanation made some sense, but Conan still felt that it was wrong.

In confusion, the group set off.

When he came to Kenzo Hirota's apartment, he was about to go upstairs when the door on the second floor creaked, and Kenzo Hirota walked down the stairs with garbage in his hand.
