Conan's grammatical investigator

Chapter 760
The next day, Qin Zhibo and the Mori family gathered together to take the Shinkansen to Osaka.

On the way in the car, Conan saw that Qin Zhibo's actions were not convenient, and asked what happened.

Qin Zhibo casually made up a reason, saying that he accidentally fell down the stairs.

"Since you are injured, why don't you rest at home?" Conan shook his eyes for a half moon.

Qin Zhibo smiled slightly, and patted Conan's head, "Because uncle can't bear to miss every good opportunity to get along with you."

Mao Lilan smiled knowingly: "It seems that Mr. Qin likes Conan very much~"

Qin Zhibo: "Of course."

Conan: "."

This is the truth.

Qin Zhibo really enjoyed every side mission he encountered with Conan.

Although it is not convenient to move now, reasoning mainly uses the brain, and it doesn't matter if the body does not move.

Just like the easy-chair detective who used to be the all-powerful detective in the detective world—Grandma Qianjian.

However, since the incident at the Twilight Annex, Mrs. Qianjian has disappeared from the detective world.

There are rumors in the outside world that the old lady Qianjian was euthanized, or she was secretly killed by her enemies in revenge.

But Qin Zhibo knew that the old lady Qianjian just disappeared with the Twilight Villa.

And the cowboy detective Haruki Motegi.

But compared to old lady Senken, Motegi Haruhime's death has no rumors.

Because Motegi was killed by the Chicago gang just before he was invited to the dinner at the Twilight Villa, the outside world thought he was dead.

7:00 p.m., 3K Hotel Osaka, Banquet Hall on the first floor.

Today's Mori Kogoro was dressed up to attend, wearing a white suit and black bow tie. He was familiar with all the female stars, and he couldn't close his mouth when he smiled.

"There are so many celebrities!"

"There are Mai Kuraki, Miho Komatsu, and Two mix"

"Next is Ms. Yoko Okino, who I support the most!"

"Yo! Miss Yoko~"

Hearing a wolf howling in the distance, Yoko Okino, who was talking to someone, had to turn around and say hello.

Today's occasion was more formal, and Qin Zhibo also changed out of the brown windbreaker that he had never changed for thousands of years, and wore a solemn black suit.

This set of clothes is more suitable, whether it is a banquet now or a memorial service later.
Qin Zhibo glanced around, there were indeed many celebrities at the venue, and none of the officially present guests had less than 3000 social credits.

If it weren't for the consideration of physical inconvenience today, I would send out a business card here if I said anything.

There is still a period of free time before the banquet officially begins.

Conan found Hattori Heiji, who was eating dim sum, and silently looked at Hattori's cruel eating.

After Hattori finished his snacks and licked his fingers again, Conan next to him asked, "How is your investigation in Osaka?"

Hattori Heiji was stunned for a moment, then turned his head, "How about the investigation?"

Conan's face was startled, and his tone was a little fierce, "Hey! Have you forgotten so soon?"

"Hey." Hattori Heiji had a smirk on his face, "Of course I haven't forgotten that."

"After returning to Osaka, I asked Police Officer Otaki to go to the Police Department to check. It turned out that the files of the Egg of Memories case were intact, and they were all well stored."

"It seems that no matter who is secretly investigating Uncle Mao Li and Uncle Qin, they have ignored the files here."

After finishing speaking, Hattori Heiji picked up another piece of high-end dim sum and began to eat it.

And Conan held his chin, thinking about the reason why the other party missed the Osaka file.

One possibility is that the other party simply omitted information about the Osaka case.

Possibility two, the other party does not have access to the case information in Osaka.

Possibility three, the other party knew the whole story of the Osaka case at all.

As soon as this idea came out, Conan thought of the real culprit behind the Egg of Memories case, the professional killer Shi Kaobing.

Although the egg of memory was successfully protected in that case, it was a great regret to let Shi Kaobing go.

Moreover, the mystery about Shi Kaobing had not been completely solved at that time.

For example, the legendary Shi Kaobing used a pistol to kill people, and the one who killed the art dealer Gan Yi was also a pistol.

But in the end, Pusi Qinglan, who was suspected by Conan to be Shi Kaobing, did not use a pistol, but a short-handled sickle.

Coupled with the arrival of the police force, Kasaka Natsumi disappeared.

So Conan has to suspect that the real Shi Kaobing is Kasaka Natsumi.

In other words, Kasaka Natsumi and Pusi Qinglan are both historians.

Shi Kaobing is two people.

First of all, these two women have very rare gray pupils, and both of them disappeared completely after this incident.

Same as Chris Wynyard after the Kubado Hotel incident.
There is another mystery that has never been solved, that is, in the Yokosuka castle, the castle steward said that a man in black had attacked Kasaka Natsumi.

At that time, Conan suspected that it was someone from the organization, but Haibara thought it was unlikely because her radar hadn't sounded.

After a long time, Conan re-imagined that Kasaka Natsumi was a bad guy, and the man in black who attacked Kasaka Natsumi was a good guy.

Back then, the only good guy with the ability to go out of his way was .
Thinking in his heart, Conan's eyes unconsciously aimed at Qin Zhibo who was sitting quietly not far away.

In short, the truth behind this case is by no means as simple as that in the police file.

In the banquet hall, Mori Kogoro was cheeky and flirted with female stars everywhere.

Conan and Hattori Heiji were in the snack area together, while Mori Ran and Toyama Kazuha were whispering among girlfriends.

This time, only Qin Zhibo was the most honest.

Out of the consideration of recharging energy, Qin Zhibo did not wander around, but found a chair at the side to practice meditation.

Suddenly, the lights in the banquet hall dimmed.

Immediately afterwards, most of the lights were concentrated on the stage, and a presenter appeared.

"Good evening, ladies and gentlemen."

"I think everyone must have been waiting for a long time. Now I will officially introduce the owner of the 3K World Hotel in Osaka!"

The host spoke in a pure Osaka accent and directed his palm to the side of the stage.

"First of all the invincible former boxing world champion, Mr. Rika Barre!"

Maca Bacca?

This name made Qin Zhibo's memory float to that distant summer.

However, the image of Reika Barre is completely unrelated to the baby, a burly man with a small goatee.

"Next up is Major League Baseball's Cy Young Award-winning pitcher, Mr. Mike Nord!"

Accompanied by crackling applause, a man with a thin face and a delicate mustache walked onto the center of the stage.

Compared with the boxing baby just now, this athlete received more applause.

After all, in Japan, baseball is a more popular sport than boxing.

Host: "Finally, the famous goalkeeper known as the European Iron Fortress, Mr. Ray Katis!"

A yellow-haired man walked up to the stage amidst thunderous applause, and he didn't forget to smile and wave his hands.

He has the highest social credit among the three, and the applause he receives is also the warmest among the three.

Qin Zhibo thought for a while, it seemed that the main purpose of Conan's trip was also to meet this man.

In fact, this surprised Qin Zhibo a little.

With Conan's character of using football as a fighting skill, football players like forwards should be more in line with his preferences.

Are you going to switch to handball in the future?

In front of the stage, Conan rubbed his itchy nose and looked at Ray Katis on the stage with interest.

"How is it? Didn't you come in vain today?" Hattori Heiji squatted down and asked for credit.

"correct."

Conan stared straight at Ray Katis, wanting to see it through.

This made Hattori Heiji a little unexpected that a football goalkeeper would be so attractive to Kudo Shinichi.

Hattori Heiji himself doesn't have much expectations for football.

If you have to say what to look forward to, it is football baby.

Next, the host asked the three people why they chose to open a hotel in Japan.

Ray Katis, who was the most popular, took the microphone and said in a not-so-familiar Japanese, "Mike's wife and I are both Japanese, and Rika loves Japanese ninja and samurai culture."

After answering the first question, the host asked again.

"Let me ask you again, does the name 3K in this restaurant refer to King?"

Ray Katis smiled and shook his head, "No, No, that's not the case."

"The first K is knockout, the K of KO."

"The second K is strikeout, the K of strikeout."

"The third K is goalkeeper, referring to the K of the goalkeeper."

The host pretended not to know the answer, and as soon as he opened his mouth to agree, a discordant voice came from below the stage.

"You seem to have forgotten to mention one, right? Ray"

"Sports stars like the three of you who have polluted Japan with scandals can only be described in one word."

"That's Dirty K."

A potbellied and hygienic man suddenly walked to the stage, bringing the lively and interactive atmosphere on the stage to an abrupt end.

The three sports stars on the stage immediately looked like they were fighting against each other, and aimed at this man together.

"Keep your mouth clean and get out!"

Ray Katis, who could understand Japanese, responded unceremoniously to the other party's provocation in English.

But the man looked indifferent, and responded in English: "Hey, I'm a customer who honestly took the invitation letter from your store."

Or, the man took out the invitation letter from his arms and showed it, "Although I don't know who invited me, I am very grateful to him."

"Because sushi is my favorite, hahaha"

After speaking, the man smiled and left with his hands behind his back.

On the side of the warm-hearted Hattori Heiji, seeing someone come out to make trouble, he was very upset, but he didn't know him.

"Who is that guy?"

Conan, who was short, put his hands in his pockets, stared at the man's leaving back with displeasure, and introduced: "This man is very famous in the United States, and he is a newspaper reporter who specializes in exposing gossip about famous athletes."

"Although most of the content has no real evidence, but relying on the style of writing, even if it goes to court, it has almost never lost."

Just when Hattori Heiji was about to lament that "ugly people do more mischief", a voice suddenly came from behind the two of them.

"Oh, so it's the UC editor."

The two looked back, and it turned out that Qin Zhibo had approached him at some point.

"You weren't just now"

Conan was a little surprised, he still remembered that Qin Zhibo was still sitting on the chair before turning off the lights.

Qin Zhibo touched the back of Conan's undefended head, and said casually, "I'll come over to check on the situation."

In fact, Qin Zhibo did come to see the condition of the deceased.

The moment the interactive session was interrupted, Qin Zhibo felt that the dead had appeared.

In addition, a person who disliked all three athletes was able to receive an invitation letter from the hotel with the word "death" engraved on his head.

Don't be too guessing about the dead in this issue.

Qin Zhibo turned his head and glanced at the portly reporter. He didn't stay in the banquet hall. Maybe he felt that there were too many eyes looking at him, so he left directly.

On the stage, the interactive link will continue.

The host reluctantly smiled and ignored the episode just now, and asked if anyone wanted to come up and ask questions.

However, after the reporter's trouble just now, the celebrities at the scene were afraid that there would be some scandals about these three people, so they cherished their wings very much and didn't want to interact on stage.

For a while, the three sports stars stood like minions.

"If any guest has any questions, feel free to ask them."

The host appealed again, but it was still silent.

Just when the host and the sports star couldn't get off the stage, a slender arm was raised in the crowd.

Everyone tilted their heads and saw that there was a horn slanting beside the arm.

It is the ghost girl - Mao Lilan.

Seeing someone raised their hands, the host quickly invited the person to the stage as if he had been granted amnesty.

Mao Lilan was a little shy, but still mustered up the courage to walk up to the stage with the board in her arms.

"Then miss, you can ask questions."

The host handed the microphone to Mao Lilan's mouth, which made Mao Lilan a little shy.

"Actually, it should be said that I have something to ask for."

"Mr. Lei, please sign for me!"

Mao Lilan stretched out the board in his hand suddenly, which caught Ray Katis by surprise.

The host hurriedly said that it was not yet the signing session, but after experiencing the silence just now, Lei, who didn't want to be left alone, quickly signed Mao Lilan and even put on a signed jersey.

When writing to who, Mao Lilan said to Shinichi.

"Xinyi? Is that your boyfriend?"

"not like this"

The exchange between the two on the stage, Conan in the audience saw it, and his face flushed.

Unexpectedly, she still remembered that I was Ray's number one fan
In fact, it’s hard not to remember. When Conan was still Kudo Shinichi, the daily topic was either Sherlock Holmes or football stars.

Hattori Heiji glanced at Conan, and quickly instructed Conan, "Don't forget to call him back when you go back."

"I know~" Conan scratched his head, a little embarrassed.

At this moment, Conan suddenly remembered that Qin Zhibo was still standing beside him, why did Hattori Heiji openly say to himself something that only Kudo could understand?
Although Qin Zhibo knew about it a long time ago, he still has to put it on in his usual clothes!
Conan suddenly turned around, only to find that Qin Zhibo behind him had disappeared at some point.
