Chapter 18 Some people are alive and suddenly they can't live

As soon as he looked down and saw a few people standing under the stairs, he subconsciously took a step back and frowned.

Masami Hirota stepped forward excitedly, "Dad! ”

Kenzo Hirota was stunned for two seconds, recognized her, and the garbage bag in his hand fell to the ground with a click.

"I'm ......", Masami Hirota's eyes narrowed slightly, and she suddenly threw herself into his arms, "I'm looking for you so hard, Dad!" ”

Kenzo Hirota rolled his eyes with difficulty, and stood in place in a daze, neither moved nor daring to move.

The nervous Xiaolan and Maori Kogoro didn't notice the abnormality at all, they stood next to them with smiles on their faces, hiding their merits and fame, and watched the reunion of father and daughter with relief.

Bai Shu silently gave Kenzo Hirota incense in his heart.

After a long time, Masami Hirota suppressed her excitement, and she bowed to a few people behind her, "Thank you very much!" ”

Mori Kogoro smiled and told Kenzo Hirota seriously, "Mr. Hirota, you can't make such a lovely daughter sad anymore." ”

Kenzo Hirota didn't say a word, and the whole person was like a fool.

Masami Hirota pulled him towards the apartment, sneering, "Dad, you must explain it to me well!" ”

The figures of the two quickly disappeared on the second floor.

Maori Kogoro got a haircut, still immersed in a joyful atmosphere, "This kind of commission, as long as you find me Maori Kogoro, it will be done in two or three clicks, hahahahaha!" ”

"......", Bai Shu looked at him speechlessly, what did you help this time, it didn't rely on Xiaolan.

Suddenly, a figure faintly flickered behind him, Bai Shu turned his head slightly, and saw a middle-aged uncle wearing sunglasses and a windbreaker, who looked like a villain no matter how he looked, was a cat behind a telephone pole, secretly observing them.

Hitting Bai Shu's sight, Uncle Sunglasses nervously fiddled with his collar, and turned around and left as if nothing happened.

Shiraki, the tracking ability of this person ...... is on par with Maori Kogoro.

Long-lost brothers?

"Brother Naoki, what's wrong?" Conan also sensed the anomaly.

He followed Bai Shu's gaze and looked behind him, and also saw the sneaky uncle in sunglasses, and wondered, "Who?" ”

Uncle Sunglasses left quickly.

Mori Kogoro didn't think much about it, this commission, in his opinion, had been perfectly solved, and the group happily embarked on the way home.

In the early hours of the morning, the Maori Detective Agency.

The door was quietly pushed open, and a figure peeked out of it.

When Shiraki rushed to the vicinity of Kenzo Hirota's house with the map in his hand, the notebook in his pocket suddenly warmed up.

When I took it out, I saw that Kenzo Hirota's name was turning from black to red, and it was arranged clearly.

Shiraki paused and stopped in the bushes across from Kenzo Hirota's apartment.

Not long after, a man and a woman, with several aluminum alloy boxes, walked out of the apartment.

When the man walked downstairs, he was still fiddling with a watch, and the strap of the watch was broken, so he pulled it off and threw it into the garbage heap next to him.

After he muttered a few words of grumbling, the woman took off her watch and gave it to him.

After the two drove away, Shiraki removed the mud marks from his shoes and touched the front of Kenzo Hirota's window.

Before I could open the window, I heard the terrible meow of a cat in the roomβ€”four cats gathered in the living room with their fur blown up, and in the middle of them was a man who had been hanged from the beam.

Kenzo Hirota's soul curled up on the ground with a blue face, as if he had just experienced the most terrible nightmare.

……

The next day, Shiraki yawned and leaned back on the couch to squint. Halfway through his sleep, he was woken up by Xiaolan.

Xiaolan looked at the telephone receiver in her hand and said in an anxious tone, "It's so strange! No matter how many times you call, it's always empty. ”

"Sister Xiaolan, who are you contacting?" Conan leaned over with concern.

Xiaolan dialed it again, and replied to him, "Call Miss Yami, I'm a little worried about her...... Dad, that's the right number. ”

Mori Kogoro looked at the visit form in Xiaolan's hand and hesitated, "This is written by herself, it should be correct...... But she took the initiative to call before, and I didn't call this number. ”

Conan didn't take this to heart, and laughed and guessed, "Could it be that dad who ran away again?" ”

Bai Shu didn't think it was a big deal to see the excitement, and nodded next to him, "It's possible, that gentleman was obviously shocked when he saw Miss Masami." ”

"I ...... I always had a sense of foreboding. Xiaolan was not as comfortable as them, the more she thought about it, the more she felt that something was wrong, and suddenly opened the door and rushed out, "I'm going to take a look at the apartment where they live!" ”

"Hey, wait!" , Maori Kogoro pulled it and didn't hold it, stood there and stared at it for a while, but in the end he sighed and took out the car keys, "Forget it, I don't have a job today anyway, let's go and see it together, let's visit friends." ”

……

As a result, when I inquired about it, Mori Kogoro instantly lost the mood to visit friends.

Xiaolan was about to cry even more, "...... He's dead? ”

"yes, in the evening, someone found him hanging himself in his room." The landlady looked at the uninvited group of people, spat out her cigarette unhappily, and complained to herself, "It's really troublesome, there have been deaths in the room, and the rent will fall sharply." ”

Seeing that the topic was about to run to real estate, Bai Shu interrupted her and asked Xiaolan the question she was most concerned about, "How is that person's daughter?" ”

"Daughter? I haven't heard of him having a daughter. The landlady touched her chin and looked confused, "But he is a very cheerful tenant, he didn't ask questions, he paid off a year's rent in one go, and he used all new money...... No wonder it's so informal, it turns out to be a runaway person. ”

At this point, her face changed, "However, if you said that the man's daughter is also there, then she may have been killed." ”

"What?!" , Maori Kogoro was shocked, "Could it be that Mr. Hirota killed his daughter first and then committed suicide?" ”

The landlady waved her hand, "It's not so frustrating, I only heard from the police officer that Kenzo Hirota was killed by someone, and all of his big men died, and if his daughter is here, alas, ......"

At this moment, all three of them couldn't calm down.

The one next to him, who was not human, had to cooperate and gasp, and on his shoulder, a strong soul covered his face and cried, trying to hug the white tree for comfort, but was pushed away by the latter's disgust.

Mori Kogoro was obviously also very attentive to his client, and he stood there for a moment with a sinking face, then suddenly turned around and went out, ready to go to the police station to inquire about the situation.
