"I've said it all, it's no problem, I'm a detective after all." Maori Kogoro, who was holding a mobile phone, spoke in a pretended humble tone, and the color on his face couldn't be hidden.

The investigation of the whole incident was very smooth, and he restored the truth of the whole case in a basement, and the worse situation did not happen, which was unanimously praised by the family of the deceased......

The main thing is that there is an inexplicable feeling that the brain has become flexible again.

Is it the effect of abstinence? Will the results be so fast?

He pondered uncertainly, tilted his head back in his office chair, and turned the chair leisurely.

At this time, if you can light a cigarette and take a puff slowly, it will be really happy like a fairy......

Thinking of this, he glanced up pityingly.

"It's useless to look at me." Tang Ze, who was flipping through the book, replied ruthlessly, "I have made an appointment to start learning simple stir-fry today." ”

"Really, it's rare to get a well-paid commission, and now should be the right time to relax." Touching his forehead, Mori Kogoro complained not very happily, "How do you feel like going to school?" ”

I have to be stared at and study, I have to be checked for grades, and I have to attend cram schools that I don't know if they are effective......

A generation older, he once again had a serious sense of identity inversion.

"You're right, so the call is over, it's time to start." Immediately dismissed his delusion of being lazy, Tang Ze closed the book with a "snap" and looked at it with a sharp gaze, "Just like you just said, you are a detective, isn't it natural for a detective to solve a case?" What is there to celebrate specifically? ”

Maori Kogoro, who was speechless for a while, touched the back of his head, and wanted to refute him this time, but he didn't know where to refute for a while.

Yes, he has solved many more complicated and dramatic cases than this, and he really has no position to celebrate such a prosaic commission......

But, but ......

"Okay, come on, I'll bring all the dishes,." In Mao Lilan's excited gaze, Tang Ze began to roll up the sleeves of his clothes, "I explained before, I mainly learn Chinese food, which may be a little difficult for beginners, but it doesn't matter, the simplest part can be learned by everyone." ”

No, no, no one can't even make tomato scrambled eggs, right?

Watching Karasawa start to roll up his cuffs in a regular manner, Mori Kogoro secretly winced.

It doesn't sound simple at all, Chinese food or something......

"Ringbell—"

Just when he was about to retreat, it just so happened that the phone he had just put down rang again.

Maori Kogoro was like being amnestied, glanced at the unfamiliar caller ID, hurriedly grabbed the phone, and quickly picked up the phone: "Hey, this is Maori Kogoro......"

As he spoke, he motioned with his eyes to Tang Ze, who had a particularly strong sense of oppression, to continue to lean over.

Look, the detective business is busy, and it's not like I'm making excuses, right?

However, what came to his ears was not a client's self-introduction, or information explaining the case, but a somewhat strange, processed voice.

"There are two days left until the night of the full moon." In the earpiece was a hoarse and deep male voice, and as soon as he spoke, it was a completely nonsensical line, "The investigation fee of 500,000 yen has been remitted to your account, please come and ......"

If you don't agree with each other, you can directly pay money, which is sure not to let the detective refuse......

Mori Kogoro frowned slightly.

He always has an instinctive sense of malaise about this kind of client who is tricky and does not explain the facts of the case at all, and does not say anything about the direct remittance.

People who don't want to do big things won't do this.

"Wait a minute, sir, please wait a minute." Before the other party could say the next sentence again, he hurriedly asked, "Who are you?" I'm sorry, but could you please tell me what the hell I'm investigating? ”

After a hoarse laugh that I couldn't tell whether it was a sigh or emotion, the person on the other side of the phone said, "I'm Keiji Aso from Moonshadow Island." ”

As soon as the voice fell, the other party hung up the phone without waiting for him to ask again.

When the "click" hang-up sound came, Mori Kogoro "hey" twice in disbelief, but it was impossible for the call that had been terminated to give him any reply.

"This, it's really weird......" frowned and checked the call information, he tentatively dialed back again, but judging from the busy tone, the other side either put the receiver aside and didn't put it back at all, or directly unplugged the phone line.

What do you mean by making up your mind not to call back......

"What's the matter, uncle," Conan looked up sharply, reacting a little faster than Tang Ze, "Is there a new commission?" ”

He was worried that he had no excuse to contact Joker and ask him what his cooperation with Kidd the Monster Thief was all about, and this was a new commission, wasn't this a sleepy pillow?

"I don't know." Maori Kogoro furrowed his brows uncertainly, looking at the phone number on the phone screen, "He just said two words and hung up, saying that he had remitted 500,000 to my account, and then said that he was Keiji Aso of Moonshadow Island......"

"...... Moon Shadow Island," Moriran said the name again, "Keiji Aso...... Ah, yes. ”

She turned around, walked to the cardboard box on the bookcase, and rummaged through it for a while, and soon took out an envelope.

"That's it, I showed you the letter from last week, didn't you say that there was no beginning or end, and you didn't know what it was doing, so you ignored it?" As she spoke, she opened the envelope and pulled out a letter from it.

Tang Ze glanced at the letter in Mao Lilan's hand with a shocked expression, and when no one noticed his movements, he quickly glanced at Conan's head.

Moon Shadow Island, how can it be Moon Shadow Island?

It stands to reason that this is a very early case...... Although it can't be regarded as a mid-to-late stage now, it shouldn't be this time after all.

It's weird to stitch up this world where nothing is right.

In other words, the current version of Conan is already a new version of the ship that has been strengthened by himself, so if he encounters the Moon Shadow Island incident now, how will he deal with this irretrievable case that fell into the abyss?

Don't say it, if you ask like this, Tang Ze is really a little curious.

While he was staring at Conan, Mori Kogoro had already taken the letter that Mori had found and read it carefully.

"On the night of the next full moon, there will be another shadow disappearing on the island of Lunaris, please investigate the matter. Keiji Aso. Looking at the text cut and pasted from the lead words of the newspaper on the letterhead, Mori Kogoro read it out, and at the same time couldn't help but complain, "Is it the trend brought by the monster thief of the heart, how do I feel that this kind of newspaper clipping collage letter is more and more ......"

"That's because it's a common way to circumvent investigations, right?" Conan pouted disapprerovingly, and just asked, "So you're going to take a look, Uncle Maori?" ”

As he spoke, he pulled out his phone expectantly, ready to edit the email to Joker.

Tang Ze, who was silently paying attention to his movements: "......"

Hey, detective, do you know that you really look like an inner ghost now?
