Gray Plains is observing Conan.

She wanted to see if Conan looked like another Shinichi Kudo.

It was also for this reason that she hoped that Kaedehara and Dr. Asa would not tell Conan about her first.

And for trying to keep Conan in the dark again, Kaedehara was embarrassed. But there's been a lot of work done here, and it doesn't seem like it's okay to do it again... Kaedehara agreed.

And now, there is just a commission that allows Gray Yuan to observe the target more comprehensively.

The client's name is Shunya.

After listening to his story, the Junior Detective Group plans to go to Shunya's house first to look for clues.

The distance was not too far, and the children could not afford to pay for a taxi, so they walked to their destination.

When they arrived, Junya's mother was sending the police officers who had come to follow up on the situation away, and the group said hello and slipped into Junya's brother's room to start searching for clues.

was already a little tired from walking, and Yuan Tai sat on the bed after looking for a while.

"No matter how much you look here, you won't find anything!" Motota said to Conan, who seemed the most positive, "I think he must have run away from home." ”

"Impossible," Conan pulled open a drawer and took out a wallet to look at Shunya, "This wallet belongs to your brother, right?" ”

"Hmm..."

"If you're running away from home, you'll at least bring your wallet, right?"

"Then my brother..."

"I think there was probably an accident or something involved."

Conan said this, and Shunya's mood fell.

It really doesn't look like a normal child... Seeing this scene in his eyes, Gray Yuan thought to himself, then looked at Kaedehara and found that he was curiously looking at the stack of books on the table...

On the contrary, Kudo is quite like a child...

Soon, Ayumi finds some clues under the bed that interrupt her thoughts.

"There are so many strange paintings under the bed!" Ayumi said as she pulled out several large paintings from under the bed.

The elementary school students all came over.

"It sucks." Yuan Tai made an evaluation.

"Whose painting is this?"

"Picasso." Gray Yuan said.

"Huh?"

"Wow! Is! Mitsuhiko was considered very knowledgeable among elementary school students, and he quickly recognized it, "It was a 'weeping woman' imitating Picasso." ”

Soon, they found that not only the top one, but also the paintings below were all imitations, some imitating Van Gogh, imitating Monet, and so on.

"These are all drawn by my brother." Shunya explains, "My brother was in the art club in high school, and he was very good at imitating other people's paintings. ”

Motota and Mitsuhiko speculated that Shunya's brother had been kidnapped to paint a fake to replace the real thing, but this speculation was quickly rejected by Conan.

"Unlikely," said Conan, "these sketches are indeed very good, but the colors and brushstrokes are still too tender to be used as fakes." ”

"And it's not a ransom-based kidnapping," Conan continued, as Gray Plains looked at him scrutinically, "If that's going to happen, it might be better to kidnap you than to kidnap your brother." However, it is the painting that is of concern..."

As Conan spoke, he set up one of the paintings for everyone to see, and it was a portrait of a person, which was very realistic.

"Huh? This man seems to have seen it somewhere..."

"It's Natsume Soseki."

"My brother is a Soseki fan," Shunya explained after Conan, "He likes this painting very much, and he sent it to an exhibition!" However, because it was painted in imitation of photographs, the visitors were heavily criticized, and only one strange woman was amazed. ”

"Strange woman?" Conan asked.

"Well, it's a woman with a wide-brimmed hat and a dark dress all over her body."

It's pitch black...

Conan, who grabbed the keyword, widened his eyes and grabbed Shunya's shoulder, "When?" When did you see that woman? ”

"Great, about ten days ago." Joon is clearly a little intimidated by Conan.

"Are there any other characteristics?" Kaedehara asked.

"Well, I seem to be wearing several necklaces..."

Conan, who suspected that the woman was a member of the Black Order because she was dressed in black, looked a little more urgent.

He quickly suggests that Shunya's brother may have been called somewhere nearby and then taken away.

So the young detectives and Joon set off together to search for the place where Junya's brother might go.

This is what Uncle Maori is best at, and Conan has gained a lot of experience a few days ago.

However, the police have already done all these things, so they have found nothing.

Thinking of this, Conan couldn't help but glance back at Kaedehara, who was walking at the back.

It's obviously something related to the black-clothed organization, but that guy doesn't seem to be in a hurry at all, and he keeps walking with the kid named Gray Plains, so he can't go to him to discuss...

"Aren't you going to help, Kudo?" Noticing Conan's eyes, Gray Hara whispered to Kaedehara.

"He's enough for one person." Kaedehara replied.

He still believes in Conan for this kind of thing...

However...

Until it was almost dark, they still made no progress.

"It's going to be dark." Ayumi was a little deflated.

Naturally, these little kids didn't care much about getting dark, but they were a little discouraged by the lack of progress...

Mitsuhiko and Motota too.

Conan planned to let the children go home first.

It's not good for elementary school students to come home too late... And Conan himself didn't want to give up.

He was going to find an opportunity to pull Kaedehara away from the kid named Gray Plains and discuss it with him.

Thinking so, Conan glanced back.

Then I found that the two disappeared at some point.

……

There will be accidents in cases, and so will solving cases.

"Ah, he seems to have betrayed your trust, Detective." Gray Yuan said, "Aren't you going to help?" ”

“……”

Kaedehara had some impressions of what was happening right now, and he remembered that Conan had stumbled upon a key clue, which was a person who happened to be using counterfeit money in front of him.

I don't know if they haven't met yet, or if they accidentally missed it...

After thinking for a moment, Kaedehara turned around and walked towards the phone booth he had just passed.

Gray Plains followed curiously.

She wanted to see how the man who had saved her sister had solved the incident.

"I'm just trying to see if I can help Conan get any clues." Kaedehara explained as he walked.

He really thought so.

But Gray Plains didn't seem to believe it.

"Uh-huh. Mind letting me see it? Gray Yuan said.

Kaedehara walked into the phone booth, picked up the phone, leaned sideways against the glass, and made room for Ashbara.

Seeing this, Gray Yuan Wai squeezed in and helped close the door of the phone booth.

The phone booth wasn't big, but the two of them were just children now, so they barely stood down.

Ash Yuan leaned against the glass, quietly looking at Kaedehara, curious about what would happen next.

Kaedehara dialed the Twilight Police Department.
