Chapter 58: The TV Incident
On the third floor, Ayumi followed Mitsuhiko and Motota to squeeze to the staircase and carefully observe.
"Conan, are you there?" Mitsuhiko looked at the dim corridor and swallowed his saliva, "I think it's better to go out and find someone first......"
"No need." Conan appeared at the door of the library with a stinky face, "The police will be coming soon." ”
"Conan?"
A few people walked into the library in a daze, only to find that the scary-looking curator was lying by the bookshelf, and Gao Cheng happened to be sitting on the chair next to him.
"Brother Gao, Brother Gao Cheng?"
"Why are you here?"
"Because Officer Twilight told me about this place," Gao Cheng touched his nose, "You little ghosts are too bold, you should have a snack after this time, right?" Detective is not a game, messing around will really die......"
"But there's Brother Gao Cheng here," Ayumi didn't look scared at all, but smiled sweetly in anticipation, "When we encounter danger, Brother Gao Cheng will definitely come to save us, right?" ”
Yuantai and Mitsuhiko glanced at each other and said excitedly: "Really! Every time Brother Gao Cheng saves us! ”
"It's like Kamen Superman!"
"Even if you say so......"
Gao Cheng pulled his face depressedly: I'm not a masked superman, are these little ghosts so big? I was scared to death just now......
An hour later, the police who arrived at the scene found the body on the roof of the library elevator, and also found drugs hidden between the children's book shelves according to the testimony of Conan's children.
The cause of the incident seems to be that Mr. Tamada discovered drugs and was killed by Director Tsukawa.
"Haha," Twilight was very happy when she successfully solved a case, and slapped Gao Cheng on the back several times and smiled, "I've helped you a lot again, Brother Chenghu." ”
"It's nothing, you can find me for any case in the future, I will help as long as I am free," Gao Cheng touched the back of his head embarrassedly, and whispered to Twilight's ear, "That, Officer Twilight, will there be a bonus or something in the future?" ”
The corners of Twilight's mouth twitched, "This...... I'll help you apply. ”
Conan saw it in his eyes, and after Twilight led the team away, he said speechlessly, "It's really hopeless, Shiroto, I think you will become like an uncle sooner or later." ”
"Uncle?"
Gao Cheng automatically made up for the appearance of Maori Kogoro's uncle, and suddenly shuddered, and glared: "What do you know about a little ghost who doesn't need to make money?" Thanks to me, I kindly helped you solve the curator this time. ”
"You're embarrassed to say," Conan looked unhappy, "obviously you've already subdued the curator, and you deliberately scared me, almost thinking it's really over!" ”
"Didn't I want to teach you a lesson?"
Gao Cheng smiled disappreciatively: "Last time, the plan prepared by your parents was ruined by me halfway, so I just want you to see how careless you are, don't always think that you can't die, you don't even know that the curator is lurking in the library......"
"Huh? When did I think I couldn't die? Besides, this time it's Ayumi and they turn on the lights to lure Director Tsugawa back......"
"Here's the problem, they're just kids, no matter what."
"Yes, yes, yes." Conan didn't refute, exhaled lightly, and silently looked at the Ayumi and the others on the other side who were still discussing excitedly.
"When I drink that bottle of wine, I will really say goodbye to the appearance of children, and I won't have much intersection with them in the future......"
"Conan! Brother Gao Cheng! Ayumi gathered around Gao Cheng in a hurry.
"Are you going back?"
Yuan Tai touched her stomach and said, "I'm so hungry, I don't have any strength, Brother Gao Cheng, can I buy something to eat?" ”
Gao Cheng's face froze, and when he saw several children looking at him expectantly, he hurriedly grabbed his wallet: "It's so late, I'd better send you back first...... Wait a minute, I'll pick up the car. ”
"Huh? Brother Gao Cheng, have you bought a car? A few children said excitedly.
"Sort of."
Gao Cheng walked to the corner of the library, opened the lock and pushed out the bicycle: "Let's go, your family should be worried." ”
"What, it's just a bicycle," Yuan Tai's excitement instantly extinguished, and he said without enthusiasm, "and he can't sit on a ...... at all."
"Don't be verbose, let's go back together!"
The next morning, Conan's dream was shattered, and he made a special trip to the city's detective agency, looking like a hangover, and finally accepted the cruel reality.
"The doctor said that it may be that I have developed resistance to white dry wine, so it will be useless to drink it again." Conan's face was ugly, and he walked a little unsteadily.
"And what do you do now?"
"I can only continue to be Conan, and sooner or later I will be able to find those men in black and find the antidote."
"I'm asking you how to explain to Xiaolan, that bottle of wine was drunk by you," Gao Cheng said precautionarily, "Let's say it first, don't use me as a shield." ”
"How did you know I was going to do this?"
"Huh??"
Gao Cheng was stunned, and when he heard the phone ringing, his face turned dark.
"Hey, this is the ...... of the Joto Detective Agency"
"Senior," Xiaolan's grumbling voice came, "Did Conan run away from you?" Really, how can you let a child drink? ”
“……”
"That," Conan looked at Gao Cheng and hung up the phone, smiling dryly and turning to the door, "I'll go to school first......"
"Stop!"
……
Another week passed in the blink of an eye, and Gao Cheng did not encounter any more cases, but only accepted an investigation commission worth 500,000 yuan, and it took a lot of time to finally complete the matter.
That night, he returned to the detective agency from his busy work, turned on the TV with a tired face, and happened to be broadcasting an hour-long special live broadcast of the daily sales TV station.
"This week is also for you to go to the All Japan Detective Agency unit, and today I am serving you Takashi Matsuo......"
"Let's welcome Detective Kogoro Mori together!"
"Huh?"
When he saw Maori's familiar uncle's face actually appear on the TV screen, Gao Cheng was full of question marks.
What's the matter, last time, both of them obviously cooperated with Nippon Sale TV, why did they only invite Maori Kogoro this time?
Gao Cheng looked in the mirror, a little younger and a little more handsome...... No matter how you think about it, it's more suitable for TV than Mori Kogoro.
"It can't be a funny show, right?"
Looking at the exaggerated smiling face of the uncle's Maori on TV, Gao Cheng always felt blocked in his heart, holding his chin depressedly, and tapping his fingers on the table.
It seems that he heard Gao Cheng's complaint in his heart, and the beautiful assistant on TV helped him speak: "Speaking of which, Mr. Maori and Detective Joto participated in the show together last time, it's a pity that Detective Joto didn't come this time, if it's two detectives, any puzzle must be solved, right?" ”
"Where, where," Maori Kogoro smirked proudly, "that kid is still tender, and he can't compare to me, an experienced detective, Maori Kogoro, haha!" ”
"This bastard uncle ......" Gao Cheng gritted his teeth as he watched the show enter the commercial, and turned off the TV casually.
"I'm in a bad mood, so it's better to have a luxurious meal today."
……
In the studio on the ninth floor of the daily sales TV station, the host Matsuo Takashi sat on the stage with a light smile.
He only invited Mori Kogoro on purpose, and when Michihiko Suwa asked him for his opinion, he wasted a lot of effort to choose Mori Kogoro, who looked confused.
Because if there really were two detectives there, his plan might not be able to proceed......
In the mixing room on the fourth floor, Michihiko Suwa stayed alone in his room to watch the studio surveillance footage, and when a short video was inserted into the program, he suddenly received a call from Matsuo himself.
"Matsuo? What are you doing? The show isn't over yet! ”
"I just want you to hear my last voice," Matsuo said as he ran through the hallway, "I'm going to die, I'm going to kill myself by jumping from the top floor......"
"What?!" Suwa was shocked.
"Just wait and see what happens to me when I die!"
"Hey, don't be like this, let's talk about the presiding matter, don't be like this, don't think about it!"
"It's too late!"
Matsuo pulled out a silenced pistol with the corners of his mouth raised.
"Bang ——!" In the studio, when Takashi Matsuo rushed back to the scene sweating, the 4-minute short film was just at the end, and the scene of the victim being shot and killed was played.
"What's going on, Mr. Matsuo? You're sweating a lot. The assistant was surprised.
"I've had a bad stomach since the morning." Matsuo gasped and smiled, and returned to the stage with his assistant to continue hosting the show.
At about nine o'clock in the evening, when the one-hour special program of the TV station was about to end, Gao Cheng was still lining up in front of the counter of the mall with a bag of things.
"Ding!" Suddenly, the system prompt sounded, and a case release information popped up.
"A new case is coming?!"
Gao Cheng woke up in shock, didn't care about the queue, hurriedly put the bag aside, and rushed out of the mall in a smoke under Obasan's stunned gaze.
"It's ...... Is it the case of the daily sale TV station?! ”
