Chapter 54: Moths to the Fire (7)

There are a lot of people at the racecourse, and it is obviously not so easy to find Kenzo Hirota.

Although Xiaolan's luck has always been good, "Conan" didn't count on luck at all.

Fortunately, they were large enough to keep a few entrances and exits under guard.

As long as Kenzo Hirota is in and out, they have a chance to discover him, and "Conan" can create a chance encounter.

But he soon found out that he was really overthinking.

Because...

Xiaolan's luck is really good.

"There!" Not long after entering the racecourse, Xiaolan was surprised to point to a man holding a newspaper not far away. Uncle Maori subconsciously looked over and immediately recognized that it was Kenzo Hirota, whom he had been thinking about for the past few days.

"I really found it!"

"Conan" silently took out his mobile phone and sent out a message, informing Dr. Asa and the others who were sitting in the audience near the entrance to go home.

"Look, Daddy! I'm a detective too! Xiaolan said happily, "I'll call him!" ”

"Wait!" Uncle Maori was shocked and hurriedly grabbed Xiaolan, "He's the missing person!" Don't call him, lest you startle the snake..."

"Let's follow him and see where he lives," Uncle Maori continued, and then began the other thing he used to do – stalking.

Uncle Maori is very experienced in tracking.

Kenzo Hirota returned to his home without noticing.

After secretly remembering the house number of Kenzo Hirota's house, the group returned to the detective agency.

As soon as Xiaolan entered the house, she happily called Miss Yami to inform her of the good news.

Miss Masami also rushed over quickly.

"Thank you, thank you, Mr. Detective!" Miss Masami happily thanked her, "Thank you, Miss Xiaolan!" ”

"Thank you, little detective! Thank you for helping me find my dad! Miss Masami looked at Conan seriously.

"It's all my credit, what does it have to do with them." Uncle Maori snorted quietly.

Xiaolan angrily pulled her father, and the group took the car rented by Uncle Maori to Kenzo Hirota's house.

Kenzo Hirota looked very surprised when he saw Masami Hirota dressed in rustic clothes.

The excited Masami Hirota shouted "Dad", hugged Kenzo Hirota, and pulled Kenzo Hirota back home.

Maori and his party also returned to the detective agency with relief.

But...

Xiaolan, who let go of her worries, couldn't help but glance at Conan.

She always felt that Conan seemed a little weird today, and she didn't want to go to the shower with her last night... He used to be positive...

Thinking of this, Xiaolan couldn't help but take a closer look at Conan, who was sitting on the sofa, as if thinking about something.

Speaking of which, Sora and Conan look exactly the same. This kid feels more like Sora a little bit to himself, could it be Sora who pretended to be Conan?

Xiaolan got up and was about to ask.

That's when ...

"Ahh

A familiar voice came, and Xiaolan sat back. It seems that she is just thinking too much.

"Sister Xiaolan~" Conan said, "Why is Sister Masami and her father so unhappy when she sees Sister Masami?" ”

"Huh?"

"Tsk, why do you care so much," said Uncle Maori, "anyway, the money is already thereβ€”"

"Daddy!" Xiaolan was dissatisfied, and then recalled, "But speaking of which, it seems that Conan said this..."

"Cut, it's probably just a ghost running out alone... Uh, what are you doing when you go out alone, you don't want to be found out by your daughter..."

Uncle Maori quickly changed his words halfway through speaking, but still found that Xiaolan was staring at him with dangerous eyes.

Uncle Maori couldn't help but sweat on his head.

"yes, maybe it's just a dad who goes out every day and doesn't even listen to his daughter... You're right? Father? ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

"Really!" Xiaolan's words changed, and Uncle Maori breathed a sigh of relief, "Miss Yami finally found her father, and maybe she will have to quarrel with her father because of thisβ€”no, I have to call and ask." ”

"Hey, they've just reunited..."

"What's the matter," Xiaolan picked up the phone and dialed the number left by Masami Hirota, "It's been a while, and it won't bother to ask now..."

"Huh?" Xiaolan was stunned for a moment.

"What's wrong?"

"It's weird, the phone number that keeps prompting me to dial is an empty number..."Xiaolan took the phone and tried it a few more times, "... No matter how many times you play, it's like this..."

"Empty number?" Uncle Maori was stunned for a moment, "You can't be a mistake, right?" ”

"How could it be! Miss Masami who I just called this number! ”

"Are they arguing so much?" Conan was curious, "It's so noisy that it breaks the phone!" ”

"Stupid! How can a quarrel be broken..."Uncle Maori stopped in the middle of speaking, and his face became serious.

Xiaolan, who was worried about the physical conflict between Masami Hirota's father and daughter, decided to go back and have a look.

Uncle Maori was a little reluctant, but he didn't dare to touch Xiaolan's moldy head.

"Conan" breathed a sigh of relief and some regret. Because if it weren't for Xiaolan's "enthusiasm", he would have had to give Uncle Maori an anesthetic needle.

The group soon returned to Kenzo Hirota's house.

Then Xiaolan was somewhat surprised to find that the door was unlocked.

shouted twice and didn't respond, Xiaolan, who felt more and more bad in her heart, pushed open the door and walked in, and found Kenzo Hirota lying motionless on the ground.

……

"It's okay, I just passed out." Uncle Mori checked Kenzo Hirota on the ground and said.

Xiaolan breathed a sigh of relief, but then her heart lifted again.

The room was a mess, as if something had been rummaged through, and Miss Masami was completely gone...

Xiaolan's mood suddenly became low.

Under Conan's reminder, Xiaolan quickly called the police.

Uncle Mori also woke up Kenzo Hirota.

However, Kenzo Hirota, who woke up, turned a deaf ear to Uncle Maori's questioning.

He just crawled to the side of the bed in the bedroom, and then glanced at the bottom of the bed, and kept muttering the words "money, my money".

It wasn't until Uncle Maori couldn't help but grab him by the collar and lift him up that Kenzo Hirota said the matter in a trembling voice.

He was one of the robbers of the Billion Dollar Robbery.

He hid with the looted money. But not long ago, all this money was taken away by Masami Hirota.

After listening to Kenzo Hirota's narration, Xiaolan glanced at Uncle Maori blankly.

Uncle Maori was also a little incredulous.

After all, just now they thought it was a bitter drama of "the daughter looking for the father who went out to fool around", but after a while, it turned into a criminal investigation drama of "looking for a billion-yuan robbery robber".

Depressed that he had been deceived by that hateful woman named Masami Hirota, Uncle Maori quickly reacted and called the Twilight Police Department, who was already on the way, to update the report.

Later, Uncle Maori, Ran, and Conan are in the house looking for clues that Masami Hirota may have left behind.

"Ahh ”

"This is a card sticker for the hotel room card, Conan," Xiaolan took the things handed by "Conan" and glanced at it, "It's from the Rice Flower Hotel." ”
