Chapter 215: Xiaolan's Invitation
A week later, Kudo House.
Yuichi was performing his tea ceremony in the living room when he got home from work, and sitting across from him were two first-year imps.
After a week of recovery, Xiao Wai, who was wounded by a gunshot that day, can already move around on crutches, knowing Yuichi's other identity, she has often visited Kudo House recently, and Conan, who is also concerned about the activities of the Black Organization, has often come here to listen to the news these days, so. Entertaining these two ancestors became Yuichi's daily routine when he was resting at home.
After washing the teacups that were only enough to drink one sip with the tea head soup, Yuichi skillfully filled the four teacups in front of him with a liquid full of tea fragrance. Looking at the steaming mist, Yuichi, who picked up one of the cups and blew the mist and took a sip, sighed with satisfaction on his face.
"Good tea! Come! Two heroes, please drink this tea! ”
Hearing Yuichi's ridicule, Conan unhappily picked up a cup and took a sip and said with black lines on his face.
"That's it! How many days has it been? We knew we were acting recklessly that day! But in the end, didn't you succeed in escaping! I'll be careful in the future, I promise not to make my own decisions again, okay? ”
"Hahaha! You promise? It's the best joke I've ever heard in my life! ”
"Yuichi Kudo! Don't go too far! ”
"What? Want to fight? Come on! Get you a hand! ”
Looking at the two brothers who didn't know how many times they had discussed the topic like this and had gone off to quarrel, Xiao Ai, who was used to all this, picked up a cup of tea and drank it silently.
Xiao Ai can pretend not to see it, but Judy, who is washing fruit in the kitchen, can't ignore this daily routine, and after holding a plate of fresh fruit on the coffee table, she immediately interrupts Yuichi and Conan's vindictiveness with a smile.
"That's it! All right! Haven't you two been like this all the time? How about a small group of us that can sit together in a free time? Want to discuss the latest new situation about the Black Coat? ”
Conan, who heard Judy mention the black-clothed organization, immediately shut up, and finally glared at Yuyi unconvincedly, then turned his head to look at Judy with a flattering face and asked.
"Sister-in-law Judy! What's new? That's great! Tell me about it! ”
"Hahaha! You! I think about these things all day, and I don't spend much time with Xiaolan! If you do this again, you will be abandoned by Xiaolan sooner or later! ”
"Xiaolan won't!"
"Alright! All right! Although you don't believe it, I always feel that distance and time are always the real culprits that wear out the beautiful feelings of two people, so as your sister-in-law, I feel that I have an obligation to remind you! Even if you want to find the black-clothed organization, you can't leave Xiaolan out in the cold, you know? ”
"Got it! Let's talk about the new information! ”
In the face of Judy's reminder, Conan replied casually and heartlessly, and immediately turned the topic back to the intelligence of the black-clad organization.
Judy, who looked at him like this, sighed helplessly, then turned around and went to the bedroom to take out a file bag.
"Here you go! See for yourself! ”
Conan, who knew what was in the document bag, immediately took the document bag, and after disassembling the sealing line, he took out a stack of documents inside and studied it carefully.
"How so! Within a week, two factories exploded unexpectedly! Three investment companies affiliated with Ken Tsuyama went bankrupt! And the mysterious sniper who attacked Kenzo Kashiyama that day has not been found for the time being. This...... This means that there is no information at all! Those companies that had accidents definitely had something to do with the Black Coats! Damn it! Have they destroyed their bodies again? ”
"Of course! That's the way this organization acts, and if they weren't so vigilant every time, they wouldn't be at a loss as a group. When Xiao Ai left, didn't you already experience their methods? However, it would be incorrect to say that there is no information at all! We've got a very important clue! ”
"What clues?"
Conan, who heard Yuichi's sudden interface, immediately put down the stack of documents that disappointed him, and looked at Yuichi with excitement on his face.
Yuichi, who saw Conan's appearance, picked up a cigarette and put it in his mouth, and threw the lighter on the coffee table in front of Conan.
Conan, who knew that Yuichi was screaming again, really wanted to throw this lighter in Yuichi's face, but for the clues of the black-clothed organization, Conan, who hinted that he had to be patient, still picked up the lighter with a smile on his face and ran to Yuichi, and quickly shot out the flames.
After taking a puff of cigarette with a comfortable face, he looked at Conan who was waiting for his answer, and Yuichi, who knew that he couldn't play too much, coughed and immediately opened his mouth to talk to Conan.
The most important clue was one of the seven people who attended the memorial service that day, the famous American actress, Chrissy Winyard. In addition to gin and vodka, I fought with her that day! And if I'm not mistaken, she may be the important leader of the black-clad organization, Belmode, known as the Witch of a Thousand Faces! And the identity she used as Chrissy Wynyard seemed to have a good relationship with Aunt Yukiko when she was in the United States before! If you follow this line, you might find something interesting! ”
"And Gin and Vodka are also injured, and the forces of the Japanese Black Organization without Gin's control will definitely be hidden for a while recently, so it will be okay for us to relax for a while. That's right, Xiao Wai! How's your research going? What's new? ”
After explaining the message of Belmode to Conan, Yuichi, who held Judy's hand and comforted her, immediately changed the topic and asked Xiao Ai on the other side.
"As for the antidote, it's not bad! I've studied the ingredients of that magical spirit, but I still can't figure out why it can make our cells reorganize and become adults when we get smaller! But as Conan said, it only works once. In other words, it is just an accidental factor, so if you want to develop an antidote, you have to study the drug itself, although we did not get the entity of the drug this time, but we did intercept some of the information about this drug, plus the information we got before. I think we will be able to launch a trial version in the near future! ”
"Really? That's great! That way, I can ......"
Conan, who heard Xiao Ai's answer, suddenly became excited, and just as he was about to say something, the phone of the You family suddenly rang.
"Hey! Oh! Xiaolan! Are you looking for Conan? Yeah! He's here! I asked him to answer the phone! ”
Judy, who walked over to answer the phone, chatted with the other side of the phone for a few words, then handed the phone to Conan, and after giving him a reminder look, Judy stood beside Conan and eavesdropped openly.
Conan, who was helpless about Judy's behavior, sighed, and chatted with Xiaolan as if she were not her.
"Hey! Sister Xiaolan! Is there something wrong? ”
"Actually, it's nothing! It's just that the garden just asked me to go ice skating at the tropical garden ice rink, and I want to take you there, how about it? Do you have time? If you don't have time, don't worry! I'll just go with the garden! ”
Hearing Xiaolan's somewhat muffled voice on the other side of the phone, Conan, who was twisted by Judy on the side, immediately reacted.
After adjusting the state, he immediately responded.
"Going ice skating? That's great! I also want to go with Sister Xiaolan! ”
"Really? That's great! I'll pick you up from Brother Youyi in a moment! ”
Xiaolan, who got Conan's affirmative answer, immediately became brisk, and after talking to Conan incoherently, she hung up the phone without paying attention to what Conan had to say here.
