Chapter 16: The Knight of the Art Museum (End)

"Hey, I still have something to say!" Walking out of the exhibition hall, Conan was dissatisfied.

"There are some things that he can only figure out on his own." "He doesn't understand your insistence, and you can't understand the importance he attaches to art." ”

“… So what if he still wants to do it? ”

"If he doesn't turn himself in today, you'll go and call the police."

"You're ruthless," Conan grumbled with a humble eye, "and just a 'knight grandfather'." ”

If Director Ochiai can let go like this, then even if he doesn't turn himself in, the matter will end like this, which is acceptable to Conan.

However, if he can turn himself in, it naturally means that he has let go of the idea of killing. This matter was interrupted early, and it didn't cause any consequences, so even if you turn yourself in, it's basically fine.

Thinking like this, Conan plans to change into Kudo Shinichi's vest tomorrow, lying that he learned what happened from Conan and going to the Twilight Police Department to talk to him.

If it doesn't work, persuade again.

The two walked side by side, and Kaedehara left the matter behind.

He tried everything he wanted.

He didn't have to do everything he could to save the knight or the demon, nor did he have any interest in counseling an old man who had met in the water.

As I said before, he doesn't have any artistic cells, and he can't really understand the mood of Director Ochiai.

"Speaking of which, those little ghosts are usually naughty, but I didn't expect them to have a positive effect occasionally."

If it weren't for the fact that these little kids ignored the sign prohibiting entry and broke in, the boss would probably be a corpse by now.

"Then call them next time?"

“… Don't, spare me. ”

"It's a pity that Uncle Maori won't spare you." Kaedehara's words changed abruptly, and Conan was stunned for a moment, "Didn't I tell you?" Uncle and Xiaolan found out that you were missing, and I volunteered to come here to find you..."

As he spoke, footsteps were heard. Conan saw Uncle Maori and Ran striding towards him angrily.

"Stinky little imp!" Before Conan could decide whether to run or not, Uncle Maori rushed over and smashed Conan on the head with a punch, "I know how to run all day!" ”

Conan wanted to cry without tears.

"That's it! Conan, you're naughty, too! ”

"You have to listen to your lords, right?"

Ayumi, Motota, and Mitsuhiko Yoshimasa harshly criticize Conan.

Conan's heart hurt even more.

……

Director Ochiai still went to turn himself in.

The police also felt that there was no need to file a case, and even relieved Director Ochiai after understanding the motive.

The museum was also demolished as scheduled.

The museum, which has been in business for 50 years, has gained attention for the first time in a long time after its life has ended. Some people took to the streets to express their regret and dissatisfaction, and some parliamentarians stood up and made remarks that gained a lot of support.

However, when I think that there were not many visitors to the museum before this, this scene is a little funny.

Xiaolan is really a little lost.

However, it didn't take long for them to receive an unexpected invitation from Director Ochiai. It turned out that he used his life savings from working all his life to buy a small part of the art from the boss of Manaka, and then rented a room to open a small exhibition hall.

After all, the remnants of the old era still issued their own cry to the wheels of the times.

No one knows how long Director Ochiai will last. But at least they had a good time that day.

The gallery is small and doesn't have much of a collection, but the painting "Damnation" is in it. Director Ochiai wore the same medieval knight's armor as he used to receive Uncle Maori and Ran, and prepared a few sets of children's armor for a few children.

Ayumi runs around in armor, and Motota and Mitsuhiko fencing each other with wooden swords. Conan watched Kaedehara with the eyes of an elementary school student holding a wooden spear eager to try.

Flame Gun, Charge!

Knights should have the courage to charge against fate.

——————

After that, although Kaedehara didn't feel like it didn't take long, Conan still encountered quite a few cases.

But it has nothing to do with the guys who turned Kudo Shinichi into what he is now.

The closest thing is one of the bombings that took place on the Shinkansen. On the Shinkansen, Conan meets a black-clad duo who are tall and strong. At first glance, he thought he had bumped into the two drugged men, but he soon realized that they were just impostors who looked alike.

This made him both relieved and disappointed.

In this regard, Kaedehara also expressed his opinion. He suggested that Conan go to the insurance company when he was free.

Compared with Conan, Kaedehara's life is much more stable. School is always on vacation for no apparent reason, so Conan is often taken out by the Maori father and daughter to run business, so he doesn't even have many opportunities to meet Conan, and naturally there are not many opportunities to encounter events.

For not having the same style as Conan to attract crime, Kaedehara is still quite relieved.

However, of course, it is impossible for the days to be free of waves all the time.

On this day, Conan was called by the doctor to take care of his foot-strength shoes, and then returned to the Maori house, and Dr. Asa finished his work early, fell asleep on the bed, and the snoring soon shook the earth.

Dr. Asasa's routine has always been so irregular that Kaedehara, who has become accustomed to it, does not care about it. After thinking about it for a while, after washing, Kaede Yuan also lay on his own single bed next to him.

Then put on earplugs, block out Dr. Asasa's snoring, close your eyes, and head to Hawaii to practice marksmanship.

The memory of Yusaku Kudo taught him a lot of the essentials of shooting, and he benefited a lot.

In fact, because of memory, just like football skills, with the control of his body, Kaedehara can quickly convert Kudo Shinichi's already shooting ability into his own.

And as for why he continued to practice - it is of course because Kudo Shinichi himself still has a lot of room to grow in these aspects.

By the time he had completed today's study task, the night was already deep, and he was a little tired, so his brain gradually emptied himself and fell asleep.

However, unlike Dr. Asasa, he has always slept quietly, and even when he is tired, he only has the slightest sound of breathing.

However...

In the room, a shadow came closer.

This shadow looked at Kaedehara lying on his side with the faint light of his phone, and he couldn't be sure if Kaedehara had fallen asleep.

However, after thinking about the current time, he looked at Kaedehara's almost motionless appearance again, and hesitated for a moment, but he still cautiously began to approach Kaedehara.

The Black Shadow also holds a sharp prop in his hand.

Coming to Kaedehara's bedside, the black shadow held his breath, bent down, and poked the props in his hand towards Kaedehara's head.
