Chapter 428: Come and Volunteer
For a second or two, Shiraishi wanted to slam the door and pretend that nothing had happened, but fortunately he didn't get up, and he didn't sleep at this time, and he clearly remembered his persona.
He quickly showed a friendly smile and followed Hattori's greeting, "What a coincidence. ”
……
Heiji Hattori didn't come to Shiraishi, he was mainly looking for two peers, Shinichi Kudo and Moriran.
But when I went upstairs, I passed by the back door of Shiraishi's house, and Hattori thought about it, I was here, and I should say hello to Shiraishi, so I wanted to knock on the door and invite Shiraishi to go out with him.
Heiji Hattori previously felt that Shinichi Kudo had a talent for encountering strange cases, and many murderers in Tokyo were more capable of acting as demons than those in Osaka.
However, when the two discussed this matter privately, Kudo insisted that it was Shiraishi's reason.
Hattori Heiji was also taken a little off by him, and he couldn't be sure who it was, but there was a solution - as long as the two of them were brought out together, they would definitely find interesting cases.
"My mom's friend's son was getting married recently, and my mom wanted to attend the ceremony, but the other day she was smashed by an iron plate grilled by grilled octopus and broke her toe, so she let me come."
As he spoke, Hattori Heiji pointed to Toyama and Ye next to him again: "She has to come with her-oh, yes, you haven't seen her yet, her name is Toyama Kazuha, and her father ......"
Heiji Hattori originally wanted to use the description "her dad is my dad's subordinate" to simply summarize the relationship between the two people.
But before that, Yuan Shan and Ye interjected with a not very good-looking face: "I am his childhood sweetheart, I have been in the same class since I was a child, and my relationship is very good!" ”
When she said this, she looked directly at Mao Lilan, who had just come downstairs, and seemed to regard this beautiful female high school student as a rival in love.
Both Maoriran and Conan sensed her hostility.
Hattori Heiji didn't notice it at all, and he habitually replied: "Who has a particularly good relationship with you, it's obvious that you came with a dead face." ”
The faces of the distant mountains and leaves were angry and turned into the color of lotus leaves.
Hattori Heiji still didn't notice, and after he briefly introduced Toyama and leaves, he went back to the topic:
"I've got to go and give them a wedding gift in the afternoon." He pointed to the gift bag hanging in the corner of the chair, and in addition to the gift, there was an envelope with the words "Senyuan" faintly visible on it.
Then he withdrew his hand and invited with anticipation: "Let's have fun together in the morning, He Ye has always wanted to go to Shibuya to buy clothes, I think there are always interesting cases next to you, there are so many people in Shibuya, if we meet, we can compete to solve the case." ”
Maolilan's eyes lit up when he heard "buy clothes".
Hearing the second half of the sentence, it slowly degenerated into a dead fish eye, and his interest was greatly reduced.
You're actually here for this......
Hattori Heiji has always said that he will do it, and when he verbally planned the itinerary, the person had already stood up and looked at Shiraishi's still spacious café: "Let's go, can you leave your luggage first?" We'll get it later. ”
Shiraishi nodded.
With butterflies shinobi around, this is indeed the safest place to store your luggage.
I just hope that Hattori Heiji and Toyama Kazuha's luggage doesn't have anything too odorous, and although Shiraishi has reinstalled a lot of air purifiers and range hoods in the café, some of the smell from the butterfly ninja is still very stubborn......
……
Shiraishi actually wants to rest at home today.
It's a pity that as soon as Hattori Heiji came, the task jumped out unequivocally, and the marriage ceremony and the words "Morien" also reminded Shiraishi of a certain case.
He had thought that he would spend a day on this Osaka Reaper today.
But unexpectedly, as soon as he walked to the door, the postman happened to pass by on a small motorcycle, turned his head to look, recognized it as the owner of the café, and directly gave the letter to Shiraishi.
As soon as Shiraishi touched the envelope, he heard another dingdong in his ears.
…… Two tasks?
He changed his steps and unfolded the letter, the content was very concise and to the point—
[Help, merfolk are going to kill me!] ]
“……”
As Shiraishi stared at the letter, he couldn't help but think of the experience of being recognized by the students of the haunted house at the campus festival the other day.
He realized several beats later that due to the cooperation of his new name, Kaori and Tatsuya Kimura, he seemed to have taken a shortcut and became a well-known detective...... At least between the fans of the new name Kahori, and the fans of Tatsuya Kimura, this is probably the case.
Under the distress message, a string of phone numbers is attached, and the other party hopes that Shiraishi will contact her as soon as possible after receiving the letter.
Shiraishi flipped through the envelope and saw that the sender's place was written "Door rib yarn".
When he saw the "mermaid", Shiraishi knew which case it was.
It's not uncommon for two tasks to be hung in the taskbar at the same time - let alone two, it's possible to have three or four at the same time when you're busy.
But when Shiraishi unfolded the light screen and looked at the starting times of the two missions, he felt that he was not yet a master of time management—one this afternoon and the other this evening.
It looks like it's been arranged.
But the problem is that although Mermaid Island is also in Honshu, it is far away from Tokyo, almost across the east and west, and it is impossible to get to Mermaid Island in the evening after dealing with the case here in the afternoon.
If you want to complete the task successfully, you have to make good use of the tools...... Or tool people.
Three high school students and a tomboy walked out a few meters and found that there was one person missing.
They turned around and found Shiraishi parked in front of the store, looking at the letter in his hand with a somewhat serious expression.
Hattori was stunned for a moment, and then his eyes lit up - he suspected that Shiraishi had received a commission, and he didn't bother to walk around the street for a while, so he ran back quickly.
However, before he could read the contents of the letter, he suddenly saw the person on the other side sigh and put the letter away.
"What's the matter?" Hattori Heiji's eyes chased Shiraishi's hand.
Yuanshan and Ye raised their elbows and pushed him up: "That's someone's person." "What kind of case to solve, come and go shopping!
Shiraishi shook his head, turned back to the café, walked through the door behind the counter, and picked up a random folder from the back room and held it in his hand.
Then he went back to the café, looked at the person who consciously followed up, and asked Hattori Heiji, "Are you going to attend the wedding of the Mori family in the afternoon, I just saw the envelope that was exposed." ”
"yes." Hattori Heiji didn't know what the wedding had to do with the case, and when he heard that Shiraishi's tone was not quite right, he wondered, "What's wrong with them?" ”
"The relationship between their family is a bit strange. Someone commissioned me to investigate, and the results I found out were ......" Shiraishi dragged out a chair and sat down, put the folder on his lap, and said worriedly, "It feels bad, you know." ”
