Conan: Science Cartoonist Kudo Yuji

"I didn't expect the wheelchair we bought would be used so frequently."

Kudo Yuji, with sunken cheeks, was exhausted. His legs didn't even have the strength to support him to stand up, so he had to sit on the wheelchair brought by the girls.

"Hey, we meet again."

Yuji patted the armrest of the wheelchair and found a bottle of soaked wolfberries in the familiar old place.

"Just drink it up."

It was Kaori's turn to lean against the wall in the same posture. Yuzuki, who had just woken up, urged the boy, then turned and walked into the bathroom, tightly holding the wolfberry in her hand. Yuuji was in trouble.

There is no need to mention the effectiveness of wolfberry, it is quite powerful, and when combined with the supplements brought by Kaori, the effect of one plus one is greater than three, which is enough for him to recover to the state where he can just be squeezed before night comes.

If he didn't drink it, he wouldn't have to worry about being used as a prop, but his body would still be sore, and he wouldn't be able to escape even after he recovered a little.

After drinking it, what awaits him is a sad ending that others envy but he himself will suffer, and he will be squeezed even harder...

"Ah, are you done drinking? I'll refill your drink."

Coming out of the bathroom, Yuzuki, half wrapped in a bath towel, took out a can of dried wolfberries from the suitcase. He first grabbed a handful and stuffed it into Yuji's mouth, then took the teacup from his hand to make water.

"Is Hakodate really that dangerous this time? Why did something like this happen so soon after arriving?"

Kaori on the bed couldn't see Yuuji, so she changed to a prone position with her upper body pressed against the bed and her lower body raised high.

"It's dangerous for sure, but I have a different opinion about the attack..." Yuji shook his head: "The most important point is what was taken away from the lawyer. Without knowing this, there is no way to guess."

"Please where's Hiroki?"

Yuji sighed, "That guy came back from Dubai, so it's not easy for Hiroki to check directly."

Speaking of Dubai, Yuji suddenly paused, and his originally frowned brows began to show signs of relaxing.

"Dubai... By the way, that guy went to Dubai on a business trip. Maybe the things he lost are related to Axie Takuzo."

Holding the wheelchair, the boy excitedly kept moving forward, mumbling something like "yes" as he moved towards the door.

“Goji berries are here!”

Holding the teacup, Yuzuki immediately grabbed the wheelchair handle and pulled Yuji back. While putting the teacup in his arms, he snatched the mobile phone, edited the boy's thoughts and sent them to Conan.

"But I think even if you don't say it, Hattori-senpai and the others will probably think of this."

Yuzuki pushed the wheelchair to the side of the sofa, looked at Yuuji quietly, and smiled slightly with her chin in her hand.

"They've been attacked, so they may not be able to figure things out right away, so it's better for me to go and help..."

Yuji shut up when the two girls stared at him in silence: "I'm not going."

"Yo, be good." Stroking the donkey's fur, Jie Yue comforted the depressed boy and whispered quietly in his ear.

"You performed very well. You are allowed to choose the pose tonight."

……

"That guy Kugaki Sumito is really awesome. He actually brought these two knives back from Dubai."

In a high-rise hotel about five kilometers away from the crime scene, a burly man in a black suit was sitting on the sofa in the VIP suite on the top floor. His eyes fell on the two Japanese swords on the coffee table and he showed a rampant smile.

"It's such a pity. I don't know who killed him. It's a good deal for us."

"Boss, when we arrived at the dock as agreed upon in the deal, the guy was already dead. Will the police suspect…?"

"Suspect what? Suspect that we killed that man?"

The man addressed as the boss picked up a Japanese sword, waved it disdainfully, then turned around and took his own sword from another subordinate.

"That guy's death was such a coincidence. The coincidence was that when he died, we were all in the hotel preparing to trade. The surveillance camera's alibi was solid."

When they arrived at the dock and found Hisagi Sumitu's body, the man determined the approximate time of death from the knife wounds on the body and breathed a sigh of relief.

"What about the knife? Will it be found to be from Kugaki Sumitu's bag..."

"Let's not talk about whether Axie Takuzo will tell the police that he arranged for someone to go to Dubai to buy a Japanese sword. Even if he did, Dubai will find the purchase record of Kugaki Sumito. As long as we insist that this thing was bought from that guy, the police will not be able to do anything to us."

The man grinned and said, "After all, when we took the knife, the money was indeed transferred to Kugaki Chengren's Swiss account, although this guy can't use it."

Everyone in the room laughed at the effect of these words, but the untimely younger brother immediately ran in holding a card.

"Kaitou Kidd!"

The man's eyes were instantly filled with murderous intent. He took the notice and read it carefully from top to bottom.

"How did he know that these two knives were in my hands?"

"Could it be that he was watching not far away at that time?"

While they were thinking, the younger brother reminded them again urgently: "It seems that this guy not only sent us a notice, but also sent one to the police station. The police are already here."

"Yes."

A steady voice sounded at the door, and after walking through a group of suited thugs and entering the room, the policeman introduced himself to the man.

"I am Ginzo Nakamori, who specializes in handling Kidd incidents. You must be Brian D. Monkura, right?" (End of this chapter)
