Mori Kogoro lowered his head in surprise and carefully studied Conan's mobile phone screen, repeatedly compared it with the photo in his hand, and said in surprise: "It seems that it is really a person, and you actually found it like this, which is very lucky, little ghost." ”

"Aha, that's it, well, I went out to play football with my children yesterday, and I saw a very familiar uncle, so I took a picture of it, is he what Miss Masami Hirota is looking for?" Conan smiled innocently.

"You guys running so far to play football...... "Mori Kogoro muttered strangely, habitually not delving into it, and carefully looking at the photo, he excitedly dialed Masami Hirota's phone, "Hey, Miss Masami, good news!" ”

Quietly relieved, secretly shouting hello for Uncle Maori's good foolishness, Conan took back his phone and gave Joker a brief thank you, once again lamenting that Joker's intelligence ability was exaggerated to an abnormal degree.

Compared to the fact that he is still locked up in the office, Uncle Kuri is famous enough to have access to the organization's clues, and Joker has already begun to sort out and find the organization's power in Tokyo.

In this regard, I feel like I can't catch up, damn it, inexplicably, I feel like I'm being chased by Party A and urging him to solve the case quickly.

It's all to blame on the organization, the child's body is too lagging!

Looking at the clues fed by Joker with resentment, Conan automatically and consciously followed Mori Kogoro who went out to find someone.

————

"You're coming so quickly, Miss Masami." Moriran, who was standing on the side of the road, saw Masami Hirota running out of breath at a glance and waved happily to her.

Masami Hirota quickly ran in front of a few people, her face was filled with joy from the heart, and her light and delicate appearance looked brighter: "I'm here!" Sorry everyone! ”

"You're so polite." Embarrassed by her deep bow, Maori Kogoro patted the back of his head and smiled embarrassedly, "Is this what a detective should do, you can't live up to the trust of your client!" ”

"I'm just, so happy." Masami Hirota grinned, adjusted the collar of her jacket with some trepidation, and asked, "Where is my father?" ”

"Oh, in Nerima Ward, it seems that I live in a rented apartment and live a decent life, so don't worry about Miss Masami." Mori Kogoro gestured to his car parked on the side of the road, "Let's send you there." ”

"Really, it's too much trouble for you...... Great, I thought he wasn't in Tokyo anymore. Masami Hirota patted her chest, her every move was very girlish, and she couldn't help but smile when she saw Maori Kogoro.

After Joker's warning, Conan, who raised some precautions, frowned slightly.

Masami Hirota is still different from the first time she came to the office.

The first time I saw her, she was cowardly and pitiful, crumbling, and her dress was very simple and simple, which was very in line with the image of a lonely and helpless girl who came to the city to seek.

But today, she may be the reason for her high mood, and the happy mood between her eyebrows makes her whole person brighter......

After getting into the car, Mao Lilan talked and laughed with Masami Hirota all the way, and Conan sat silently next to him and curled up, trying his best not to attract anyone's attention, silently listening to the conversation between the two.

Xiaolan is very good at this, she is a very easy to feel other people's emotions, empathy is very strong emotional character, people are very affinity, few people can resist her enthusiastic offensive, just listen to their conversation, you can get a lot of information.

Masami Hirota, who claims to be a first-year high school student, took a long leave of absence in order to come to Tokyo to find her father, and has been staying in Tokyo for two or three weeks; Kenzo Hirota was her last relative, and she and her father had been dependent on each other for many years, and her father, who was a taxi driver, was temporarily suspended for a period of time because of a traffic accident, and as a result, he lost contact when he went out to look for a job......

It didn't feel real, Conan thought to himself.

The police can't find anyone, but a girl from a small town chooses to pay a lot of money to find a well-known private detective to help her find someone. Shouldn't we look for newspapers or radio broadcasts in the hope that we will have a better chance of getting in touch with my father?

Keeping these thoughts on the table, Conan took note of these doubts one by one, and prepared to sort them out and then exchange further information with Joker as appropriate.

More than twenty minutes later, Kogoro Mori parked his car and walked to the apartment they had found, with his high-spirited daughter and Masami Hirota.

"It's good luck." Mori Kogoro led the way with his head held high, and said humbly, "Well, the child of the family happened to be out and saw your father, and we stayed in the vicinity for a while, and we really met him, and found this place all the way...... It's the upstairs room, go this way, Miss Masami. ”

Conan tugged at the hem of Moriran's clothes and followed them in small steps, keeping his eyes on Masami Hirota.

Joker said that Kenzo Hirota is a debt slave of a gang, because of his gambling addiction, his family went bankrupt, if she is really Kenzo Hirota's daughter, will she not think of her father's love to go to a place like a horse park?

Standing in front of the previously confirmed door of room 202, Conan looked at Masami Hirota and rang the doorbell expectantly.

Wait and see, the truth is not clear enough now, let's see how she reacted to meeting Kenzo Hirota......

"Ding-dong-"

The crisp sound of the doorbell echoed inside the door, and the four men stood in front of the door, waiting for a minute without hearing any response.

"Hey, are you out of the house?" Mao Lilan frowned and glanced at the time, "Is it so early......"

"Ding-dong-"

Kogoro Mori rang the doorbell again, and the elongated bell echoed through the apartment, still unresponsive until silence returned.

Turning his attention to the door, Conan looked at the doorknob and felt uneasy: "Wait a minute, the door doesn't seem to be locked......"

"Huh?" Mori Kogoro also frowned, leaned into the doorknob as he said, and turned tentatively.

The doorknob turned straight up, and the apartment door was opened as soon as it came.

…… Oops, it's not good.

Compared with Mori Ran and Mori Kogoro, who were still very confused about the situation, Conan, who knew that Kenzo Hirota was afraid that he was related to the organization, immediately had the worst association.

"Mr. Hirota, Mr. Hirota?" Mauriran pushed the door halfway open and called twice into the room.

No one responded, so she finally pushed the door open and walked into the hallway.

Kenzo Hirota's wide-eyed corpse hung quietly from the chandelier in the living room, swaying gently in the morning breeze as the door opened, his bloated body creaking at the rope that hung him.

"Ahh

"Ahh......h

Damn it! The worst really happened!

Conan's eyes widened, and he rushed into the room, looking at Kenzo Hirota's already frozen body, and slammed the wall in anger.

How so, was their tracking detected by the organization, or did Joker's investigation touch the nerves of the organization and kill the person?

"No, Daddy...... Father! Masami Hirota seemed to finally come to her senses, let out a piercing wail, rolled her eyes, and fell.

"Miss Masami, Miss Masami!" Maori Kogoro, who was standing beside her, quickly caught the fainting girl, and he said sharply, "Xiaolan, call the police, call an ambulance!" ”

Seeing Mao Lilan nodding with tears in his eyes, and turning out his mobile phone to dial, Conan also stabilized his mood a little, took out his mobile phone as soon as possible, and sent a message to the most likely insider.

[Joker, something went wrong, Kenzo Hirota died. 】
