The unscrupulous detective in Conan

Chapter 1245 Hongye: Just tease me!
Park the car in front of the Bai Ma family’s villa.

Bai Ma Tan got out of the car first and went up to ring the doorbell of the villa.

After a while, the door opened, and inside came a white-haired old woman wearing gold glasses.

"Master Bai Ma, what's wrong with you?"

Shikibu Shikako was the first to notice Hakuba Tan's abnormality and asked with a worried look, "Your eyes look like they have bloodshot eyes. Did you cry just now?"

Bai Ma Tan waved his hand: "It's nothing, I was just hit by Kidd's flash bomb, it's not a big deal."

"..."

"I'll go get you some eye drops."

Shikibu Kashiko was silent for a moment, then turned around and said this.

Bai Ma Tan called her, "Grandma, wait a moment."

"What else?"

"That's right, there are still some empty rooms in the villa that have not been cleaned up."

As he spoke, he pointed to the group of people behind him and said, "Someone wants to visit our villa."

Hearing this, Shikibu Shikako looked at the people in the van behind her. She was stunned for a moment, then asked in surprise, "Is it your friend, young master?"

"Friends... forget it..."

"Great, Master, you finally have a friend."

Shikibu Shikako looked a little touched, and her slightly old face was full of relief.

Bai Ba Tan was a little speechless about the behavior of his butler.

So, what's this weird feeling of a young master who finally turns over a new leaf, who previously had no interest in women, suddenly becomes normal and brings home a girlfriend, while people around him are so happy and moved that they are about to cry?
After a little emotionality, Shikibu Shikako turned around and said, "I thought you were the only one coming here, so I cleared out a few rooms."

"But it doesn't matter. I'll go and clean up a few more rooms."

Just when Shikibu Shikako was about to show off the strength of the old housekeeper, Shinjun.

The people carrying their luggage came over and heard what Shikibu Shikashiko said.

Xiaolan, a kind-hearted girl, said, "Well, I'll help clean up too!"

"Ok?"

Shikibu Shikashiko turned around and looked at Xiaolan, thinking that she was a really good girl, "No need, after all, you are the guests of Master Baiba, how can I let you do it."

"Oh, what distinguished guest..."

Yuanzi echoed and said, "We came here to disturb you without permission!"

Both of them are simple-minded and treat others with kindness, so naturally they will not cause trouble to others because of their relationships.

Hibiki Eri followed behind and said helplessly, "Indeed, we are the ones who disturbed him rashly."

Eri Kisaki is well versed in the ways of the world, otherwise she wouldn't be able to be a lawyer.

Originally, she was thinking about going to her best friend’s house with her silly girl.

But this involves strangers again...

As a parent and an adult, it is really unconscionable for me to live with my child without asking for his permission.

She glanced at Kogoro Mori and thought to herself: Someone is indeed so shameless as to stay in the home of a stranger and eat and live for free.

Maori Kogoro:"……"

Why do I feel like my wife despises me?
How can I tolerate this?
So he glared back angrily.

For a moment, the atmosphere between the two people was electric. If it weren't for maintaining a harmonious appearance in front of outsiders, they would probably have started a round of yin and yang between them on the spot.

Xiaolan felt the bad atmosphere and didn't understand why this happened. She felt helpless in her heart: So, why did the two of them have a conflict again?

…………

Finally, everyone entered the villa and started cleaning.

Divided into two groups, the ladies went together to clean the room they were about to move into, while the men had nothing to do.

After all, among this group of people, there is a bald old doctor who has been single all his life and has just recently entered his twilight years; there is an uncle who drinks all day and would have died long ago if it weren't for the silly girl; there is a typical hypocritical male chauvinist who can't take care of himself without a girl; there is also a young master who travels abroad every day to solve cases; and there is also an elementary school student.

Except for Fujino, who lived alone in his previous life and was able to take care of himself, the others were semi-incapable of taking care of themselves. It was considered good enough to ask them to clean and not cause trouble.

Fujino looked at this group of people and felt speechless.

Can you learn to cook and do housework?
People like you who can't even cook and even make the place worse when cleaning, have become complete wastes, okay!
Several people shook their heads helplessly and said, "Lan, Mom, and Grandma Shikibu, we will help you deal with it."

Fujino sighed helplessly, feeling that these people were beyond help.

He has always known that in the world of science, any male character with a bit of fame is a waste of life.

Except for those who are so miserable that they don’t even have a childhood sweetheart, and some even take Japanese women as their wives, childhood sweethearts and girlfriends are all external life helpers.

Maybe this is the traditional Japanese chauvinism?

Men only need to make money to support the family, but women have to consider too many household affairs, and so on.

There is actually nothing much to say about this conservative idea. Such ideas have existed in China, the United States, and Japan in the past. After all, this is true in terms of the fundamental productivity of modern industrialization.

Moreover, Japan has its own national conditions. In the past, there was a period of female boxing in Japan, but after being hit by a dimensionality reduction attack, the female boxers all went back to being housewives obediently.

Fujino thinks that this combination is quite dreamy.

After all, in his era, if a man relied solely on work, it would be impossible to support a family. Usually women also had to go out to work, and even the elderly had to go out to deliver takeout to support the family when they got old.

All we can say is that capital treats everyone equally, whether they are men or women, old or young.

If there is still inequality, it means there is still surplus value that can be exploited.

…………

Soon, the ladies, who were good at housework, cleaned up the room and then rushed to the kitchen to prepare dinner for so many people.

You can't really rely on Yuanzi and Hongye to do cooking, but they can help out.

The only ones left to count on are Shikibu's housekeeper, Ran, Kisaki Eri, and Ai...

Fujino looked at the group of people who were slacking off and felt that this was no longer ordinary slacking off and that he had to strike hard!

Then he rushed to the kitchen to help prepare dinner for tonight.

A group of people were watching TV bored.

Most of the programs on TV are detective dramas, as well as idol dramas and so on. Detective dramas are still the most popular category.

After all, the main theme of this world is detective.

Listening to the sounds coming from the living room, Shikibu Shikako seemed to be in a good mood. While she was cooking soup, she asked the people in the kitchen, "How did our young master Bai Ma get to know you?"

"..."

This question stumped others.

Xiaolan, Sonoko, Momiji, and Haibara Ai also don't know the love-hate history between Fujino and Hakuba Tan.

Not to mention Kisaki Eri, she didn't even know this little yellow-haired boy.

Fujino spoke at this time: "Well, the first time I met Lao Ma was on a quiet but dangerous night. That night I met Lao Ma for the first time. I still remember the yellow hair on his head and his pretentious look. After that, we chased after Kaito Kid together, and then..."

Shikibu Shikako listened and seemed to be very interested in the story her young master told from other people's mouths. Although it sounded a little different from what her young master said, it did not prevent Shikibu Shikako from showing a gratified expression on her face.

I feel like my young master has finally grown up.

Everyone has good brothers who can call you by your nickname.

Shikibu Shikako was a little touched. Looking at Fujino, she felt that he was definitely a sincere and friendly child, who must have helped her young master a lot in the past.

Although the young master sometimes complains, he still receives more positive comments.

It must be that the young master of my family is biased against this person.

After all, she has watched this young master of her family grow up since he was a child, and she knows his personality.

Unlike those other second-generation officials who have a bunch of bad friends, this young master of his family has been obsessed with the truth of cases since he can remember. Especially after solving the case, he became uncontrollable and became... well, a little arrogant. The fact that he hasn't made any good friends over the years is very telling.

So, it must be the problem of my young master.

…………

After dinner, the night passed.

The next morning, everyone left the Hakuba family's villa and started their journey to Hakodate.

If we talk about the famous places in Hakodate, it must be Goryokaku Park.

Today happens to be spring, as if it is intentionally cooperating with Fujino and the others.

We walked across a long bridge that runs through the river and arrived at Goryokaku Park. The greening level here is very high. The ground is basically covered with lawns, as well as shrubs, big trees and cherry trees. It is spring and the lush cherry blossoms are in bloom. The refreshing breeze from Hokkaido blows, and the pink petals flutter and fall on the moat next to it, turning the ordinary river into a river of flowers.

However, since it is a park, there is definitely nothing fun to do.

Although it is said to be a military fortress, it has long been turned into a park. The buildings and plants inside were planted later, and the moat was probably repaired later. In short, it is just an ordinary park, nothing special.

After looking at the scenery and buying some small souvenirs, everyone left.

Just before leaving the park, you can see a tall tower that looks very metallic, just like an airport control tower.

That thing is called Wuling Guo Tower, and it is specially used to overlook the park.

Of course, it can also be used to look out over Hakodate.

However, since it was built next to Wulingguo, it is also called Wulingguo Tower.

"Wow! Damn it!"

"Amazing!"

"Yuanta, you're talking about how great it is again..."

"How else can I describe it other than being amazing?"

Fujino followed and looked down from the top of the watchtower.

Before your eyes, the entire scenery of Wulingdun comes into view.

The surrounding moat forms the edge of a five-pointed star, and there are pink cherry trees as embellishments on the edge. In the middle is the center of the park, with several Japanese-style buildings.

Although it has no practical significance, it does look quite spectacular and beautiful.

At this time, Dr. Agasa suddenly said: "Ahem!"

"It's a rare opportunity to come here and see the historically significant Wulingguo. It would be a shame if I didn't guess the riddle!"

"Excuse me, why are there no fish in Wulingguo's moat?"

"First, the water is too cold!"

"Two, they were eaten up by the samurai!"

"Three, there are too many stars!"

After hearing this, the little ones fell into deep thought:
“Why are there no fish in the river in Wulingdun?”

"Why?"

"It must have been eaten by the samurai!"

"I think we shouldn't have put the fry in from the beginning."

The little ones chattered non-stop, and Huiyuan Ai looked at Dr. Agasa with drooping eyelids: "So, Dr. Agasa, why are you telling such meaningless jokes again?"

"Hey, does Haibara (Ai-chan) already know the answer?"

The little ones looked at Xiao Ai with curiosity.

And Haibara Ai sighed helplessly and explained: "The answer is three. There are too many stars because the moat is star-shaped (hoshigata), and the fish will be dried (hoshi), so there are no fish."

Mitsuhiko showed his dead eyes and said, "So, Dr. Agasa, this is another cold joke, right?"

"That's it!"

“Ahem, ahem, ahem!!”

Fujino looked at Professor Agasa who was being attacked by the little ones, and felt that this old man could always come up with some local puns and jokes to make things more interesting.

Wait, what a joke...

Could this be another theatrical version?
Hakodate or something, I don’t know how to do this question!
Fujino tried hard to think about the theatrical versions he had seen in his previous life, but after thinking for a long time, he still couldn't remember where he had seen a similar plot.

"Hey, Fujino-kun!"

Hongye suddenly called out to Fujino, "Come on, come on, take a photo with me and Hijikata!"

"Are you a fan of Hijikata?"

Fujino turned around and looked at Hongye who seemed to be having fun, and was puzzled for a moment.

"Well, he is the vice-leader of the Shinsengumi after all!"

Hongye smiled awkwardly and continued, "He is mature, steady, and handsome. He is a representative of the last generation of samurai. He is very good at swordsmanship and has many poems."

"I feel a bit like you."

Hongye said, reaching out her white and tender hand to grab Fujino's arm and pull him over, muttering in a low voice: "Of course, compared to Hijikata, I still like you more~"

"Please don't openly flirt with decent women and men, okay..."

Fujino showed his dead eyes helplessly and complained in a low voice helplessly, "After all, you are still a virgin, okay?"

"Just teasing, just teasing..."

Hongye raised her head seriously, then smiled evilly: "I will be responsible for you."

"..."

"Cough hum!"

The sound of Huihara Ai coughing lightly was heard. She looked at the two people who were secretly talking with dead fish eyes, walked forward slowly, and drooped her eyelids: "I want to take a photo with Hijikata too, take me with you, I am also a fan of Hijikata."

"..."

Hongye narrowed her eyes.

She felt that this statement was somewhat against her will.
