Daily Spy Life in the Detective Conan World

Chapter 838 I Need Your Help

That night, the full moon was waning, and the stars shone brightly in the sky.

Pu and Jiang finished their hard work for the day and returned home.

I sneaked out to do something naughty yesterday and didn't sleep all night. Today I've been with the team the whole time, just worried that they'll suspect me later. Now that I'm off work, I can finally get some rest.

"Fortunately, the bomb in the concert hall was planted in a hidden place beforehand, otherwise, with Kogoro Mouri joining in at this time, I really wouldn't have been able to operate it properly."

Pu and Jiang chuckled, deeply proud of their actions of planting explosives and poisoning the target in advance.

He hung his coat on the hanger and walked hunched over to sit down in the living room.

I poured myself a small glass of my amber-colored homemade wine, took a sip, closed my eyes, and savored its flavor.

"Ok?"

"How so? Does it taste a little different?" Suddenly, a clear female voice rang out from behind him.

"Who?!"

In the dead of night, such a sound would be terrifying for anyone, especially since Pu and Jiang had something to hide. They seemed to have become twenty years younger, jumping up from the sofa and warily looking at the shadows behind them.

But there was no one behind him; it was as if the voice he had just heard was just his imagination.

"Who is it?!" he asked again warily.

"I added a little something to the wine, which should enhance the flavor."

Pu and Jiang quickly turned around because this time the sound was coming from the direction of the television.

Upon closer inspection, I noticed a tall woman in a black coat standing in the center of the living room.

At that moment, he wasn't interested in whether it was magic or not; he just wanted to know what the other person meant by those words.

"What did you mean by that? Breaking into a burglary is a serious crime. I advise you to confess honestly, or I will call the police."

He watched the other person warily, waiting for them to turn and leave before smashing the glass in his hand over their head.

As for getting the other party to leave?

impossible.

Whether it's a burglary or something else, the fact that there's a bomb in the house has definitely been discovered, and asking the other party to leave would only harm yourself.

Unfortunately, the threat of calling the police did not scare the other party.

"Go ahead and call the police if you dare."

The woman gave a cold laugh, hooked her high heel behind her, and pulled out a plastic box. "If you want these things to be found by the police, I don't mind."

"Who exactly are you?" Pu Hejiang's face was as black as the bottom of a pot.

"Don't move. If you're looking for the handgun hidden under the sofa, I can only tell you that it's in the box too."

"As for my identity, that's a secret, it makes women more beautiful."

The woman continued in a flippant and mocking tone, "All you need to know is that I have something on you."

"handle?"

Having lived for decades and being a seasoned veteran who could procure bombs and pistols, he naturally understood the meaning behind the words.

The other party has some unknown purpose, and it is very likely related to the Domoto Concert Hall or Domoto Kazuki.

"what do you want to do?"

I need your help.

On the day of the proposal.

Kyoto.

"Ah, why do we have to go back?"

Joel looked at Shinmei Kaori with a puzzled expression. "Now that Haneda Yasuharu has reappeared in the public eye and started criticizing Kyoto's security, he has also subtly mentioned the existence of the brewery. If the Ooka family and Gin are afraid of exposing something, they will definitely take action again. What if he gets arrested if I leave?"

Joel was a little confused. If Natsukawa didn't want to protect Haneda Yasuharu, why did he come to protect him a few days ago? It didn't make sense.

“Mr. Natsukawa said that he protected Haneda Yasuharu earlier only to make him wary.”

"If you want him to be on guard, why not just send an anonymous text message?"

Shinmei Kaori had the same question, but she knew what the purpose of this trip was, so she could only shake her head with a wry smile: "Why don't you go back and ask Mr. Natsukawa for details? He's waiting for you in Nishitama City."

“Nishitomo City?” Joel was even more confused.

"Don't worry, I'll keep an eye on things here. I'll let you know as soon as there's any news."

Joel could only nod in agreement.

She trusted Natsukawa, and as for her doubts, Shinmei Kaori obviously couldn't answer them for her, so it was better to fly directly to Nishitama City to seek answers.

After packing her things at home, at Shinmei Kaori's request, she changed into a beautiful dress and put on light makeup, with glossy lipstick. She was approached by many business elites on the plane.

The constant attempts to flirt with her became unbearable, so she finally had to randomly select one lucky person to handcuff on charges of indecent assault, and only then did no one else bother her.

"Honestly, why does Kaori insist that I put on makeup and change clothes? If she hadn't done that, maybe none of this would have happened."

After handing the "lucky one" over to the airport police, Joel had just walked out of Haneda Airport and hadn't even had time to hail a taxi when he discovered a car waiting for him at the entrance. Upon closer inspection, he recognized the car as belonging to Tomoaki Shinichi.

"What's going on here?" She vaguely sensed that something was wrong, but couldn't quite put her finger on it.

The key was the killer's instinctive perception, and he didn't detect any signs of danger.

"Are Anya and Ai in Tokyo?" Joel asked thoughtfully.

"They are also in Nishitama City."

"Where in Nishitama City are we going?" Joel asked again.

"Uh, it's the Domoto Music Academy in Nishitama City. Didn't Mr. Natsukawa tell you?"

Shinichi Araide's eyes darted around, as if he was afraid that his acting wasn't up to par.

Joel did not answer, pondering the name "Domoto Music Academy".

I feel like I've heard that somewhere before.

"Is Domoto Music Academy the one that was supposed to hold a concert hall opening ceremony recently, and then the day before yesterday there was an explosion?"

She finally remembered that her best friend Yumi had mentioned it last night.

The other party said that Sato Miwako was going to participate in the investigation and was going to Domoto Music Academy today. Then, it seemed that they were short-handed or something, so they transferred her, the most beautiful woman in the Ministry of Transportation, there as well.

"Uh, yes, it's this Domoto Music Academy."

Shinichiro's heart skipped a beat. He glanced in the rearview mirror and saw that Joel seemed to be deep in thought and hadn't discovered anything, so he breathed a sigh of relief.

"what happened to you?"

"Ah, it's okay."

"Hey, watch your step, the light's red ahead!" Joel quickly reminded him.

Shinichiro was startled and hurriedly swerved to avoid the car in front of him.

"Feel sorry!"

"Seriously, were you even taking Frank's training seriously? You don't have to be this distracted just to chat, do you?"

"Oh~ I see, is it because you didn't see Kaori?" Joel seemed to have thought of something, a smile playing on his lips: "She'll stay there for a while to take care of some things. If there's nothing else, Natsukawa should transfer her back later."

Shinichiro was both amused and exasperated.

Frank can't be blamed for this. He knows a little about everything, but he's terrible at driving. If he had to be taught how to drive, he probably wouldn't have made it to Nishitama City today.

However, it seems that everyone knows that I am interested in Shinmei Kaori. Am I that obvious?
Thankfully, Joel didn't guess the main reason he had been distracted by nervousness.
