"High school and high school detectives?"

Uncle Maori looked surprised.

"Ahh

Conan also responded with his own.

Seeing this, Heiji Hattori took out a bottle wrapped in cloth from his bag, poured out a glass of transparent liquid, and said to Conan, "Hey! Gremlin! I have a cold medicine here, can I try it? ”

"Thank you, thank you." Conan took the cup.

"I've heard there's a shrewd and capable young detective in Kansai, could it be—" Uncle Mori asked.

"yes. Kudo and I are often compared to Hattori Higashi Kudo, who is often compared. Hattori Heiji responded, then turned to Kaedehara, who had been quiet, "Hey, what about you?" Want to come a little? This stuff should prevent colds. ”

Kaedehara shook his head and refused.

He doesn't like to drink.

And it does something else.

Hattori didn't care, turned around and said to Uncle Maori: "Kudo has suddenly disappeared recently, and there are no reports of him, and there are rumors that he is missing..."

"Ahh

Conan sneezed, then poured a full glass of liquor down with a grunt.

Almost the next moment, Conan was dizzy.

Xiaolan hurriedly helped Conan, who almost fell, and saw Conan's drunken look, "What did you let him drink!" ”

"Chinese wine, white dry!" Hattori Heiji took away the cloth wrapped in the sake bottle and said proudly.

Seeing the other party's expression, Xiaolan became even more angry, "Wine? How can you get a small child to drink this!? ”

"It's okay, don't worry, it definitely works!" Hattori plucked out his ears and said impatiently, "Okay! Now tell me where Kudo is! ”

"I told you that he wasn't there..."Xiaolan said impatiently, but then she realized that she had just said this, and it would be endless if it went on like this, "What the hell are you looking for Shinichi?" ”

"It doesn't matter! Just wanted to meet that kid and be sure... Is Shinichi Kudo qualified to be on par with me! ”

“……”

Xiaolan was speechless, and she didn't know what to say.

"Ahh Conan sneezed again.

Just then, the doorbell rang.

There was a commission to come to the door.

In order not to affect Uncle Maori's work, everyone had to stop for a while.

Xiaolan brought in the client and sat down, and then ran to make tea, while Hattori sat unceremoniously next to the uncle and listened to the client.

The client's name is Tsujimura Koe, and he is the wife of the diplomat Tsujimura Xun.

……

"Want to investigate the conduct record of Ling Lang's girlfriend?" Uncle Maori asked.

"That's right. Here are her photos and experiences. ”

"Sachiko Katsuragi, twenty-four years old... Dongdu Medical University..."Uncle Maori read while watching, "... Isn't that great? Do you have a dissatisfaction? ”

His Maori Kogoro is going to be moved!

"I'm not dissatisfied with her," said Mrs. Tsujimura, "it's just—"

"It's just that I don't like it because the conditions are so good," Hattori Heiji interjected, "Human nature is like this, when you see something perfect, you want to pick a bone in an egg... Auntie, am I right? ”

"Who is this kid?" Mrs. Tsujimura said.

"Little girlfriend!" Uncle Maori explained while telling Hattori to shut up, but Mrs. Tsujimura didn't seem to mind.

After a few more words, Mrs. Tsujimura got up and asked Uncle Mori to go to Tsujimura's house to talk to Tsujimura in detail, on the grounds that diplomats were not suitable for a place like a detective office.

Uncle Maori has a hard time refusing.

And Hattori Heiji, who came to compete with Kudo Shinichi one by one, naturally did not miss this potential opportunity to compete, and in order to ensure that Kudo Shinichi would appear, he also pulled Xiaolan, Kaedehara and Conan to go together.

So after a while, after Hattori's pampering, the group went to Tsujimura's house in a neat manner.

Due to the large number of people, they called a taxi.

In the car that Kaedehara was in, Hattori Heiji sat in the front, and Xiaoran, Conan, and Kaedehara sat in the back. Conan looked a little better than he had just done, but a closer look showed that his body temperature was higher than before.

After thinking about it for a moment, Kaedehara took out his phone and sent a message to Dr. Asasa.

The taxi ended up stopping in front of a very imposing villa.

Mrs. Tsujimura carefully paid the fare for Xiaolan's car, which made Uncle Maori breathe a sigh of relief.

In front of the villa stands the butler of the Tsuji Village family.

"Madam, you're back!" The butler bowed.

"Where's the gentleman?"

"The master is still in the study on the second floor." The housekeeper replied, then looked at Mori Kogoro beside Mrs. Tsujimura, "Who is this?" ”

"My old friend, Mr. Maori." Without waiting for Uncle Maori to answer, Mrs. Tsujimura preemptively spoke. As discussed before, she didn't want anyone to know the identity of Uncle Maori's detective.

Past the housekeeper, Mrs. Tsujimura led the group straight towards the house, and then unexpectedly met Sachiko Katsuragi, the target of the investigation.

Just like in the photo, this is a very peugeot beauty, and her personality looks very good.

But Mrs. Tsujimura has a bad attitude towards her.

After that, they met the old man of Tsuji Village, who likes fishing. He is the father of the head of the family, Isao Tsujimura.

Mrs. Tsujimura stopped to talk to him for a few words, then led the group upstairs to the study, and knocked on the door.

"Husband! I am back! Mrs. Tsujimura shouted a few times, then knocked on the door a few times, but there was no response.

After shouting again, Mrs. Tsujimura took the key out of her bag, opened the door and walked in. The crowd followed.

The sound of the sound, which was only faintly heard outside the door, suddenly penetrated everyone's ears.

"I'm listening to an opera," Hattori said, looking at the stereo in the room.

"Really... I fell asleep without turning off the stereo..."Mrs. Tsujimura said as she walked over to call her husband.

Isao Tsujimura is a middle-aged and elderly man with a hairstyle similar to that of Dr. Asasa, dressed in a formal suit, and is currently sitting at a table with his chin propped up, and a stack of books in front of the table, looking like he is asleep.

Mrs. Tsujimura walked up behind him, put her hand on his shoulder and shook his body.

Then, in the midst of everyone's astonished gaze, the diplomat Tsujimura fell to the ground with a dull thud.

He's dead.

……

The dead were poisoned.

The body had a small red dot behind its ear, and a needle that appeared to be a murder weapon had fallen nearby.

The corpse's lips, fingers, and toes had turned purple, and there were blood spots on the conjunctiva of the eyes, indicating that he had died of suffocation.

No signs of strangulation or drowning were found, and there was no painful expression on the deceased's face, so the deceased could only be suffocated by paralyzing the nerves with poison.

However, from the fact that the corpse was still warm and the corpse was not yet present, it can be inferred that the deceased was found dead less than 30 minutes ago.

The corpse still had the key to this room in its pocket, and the only other key left was the key to Lady Tsujimura's door, so this room was once a secret room.

The above is the reasoning that Heiji Hattori and Conan completed at the same time.

However, after that, the two had a disagreement.

Heiji Hattori paid more attention to the secret room, and thought of a way to use thread and tape to send the key through the crack in the door to the deceased's pocket from the outside.

Conan pays more attention to the sound and the stack of books in front of the deceased.

However, he is in a very bad state now, and with the presence of Heiji Hattori, a detective who is not confused, it is difficult for Conan to look at the key clues under the guise of Uncle Maori as before.

No, just as he was selling Moe and trying to get a look at the key ring in the corpse's pocket from the Twilight Police Department and Hattori Heiji, Xiaolan pulled him back.

"Conan! Don't bother Hattori about the case! ”

Xiaolan pulled Conan aside, and then continued to look at Hattori Heiji's reasoning appearance slightly distracted.

And Shinichi seems to...

Xiaolan thought so.

Vinegar welled up in Conan's heart.

However, as soon as the vinegar surged, there was a sharp pain in his chest, so that Conan couldn't help but grab the clothes on his chest, and the whole person fell to the side.

Then he was held up.

"Go to the hospital, right?" Kaedehara said, holding Conan.
