Ms. Moriarty wants to save Beika Town today too.

Winette was speechless.

……

290 Baigan Wine

I have already seen the sign of the Maori Detective Agency.

After passing through the external corridor and arriving at the door of the second floor, Winette was about to speak when Hattori Heiji knocked on the door.

"coming!"

Xiaolan, still in her school uniform, came out to answer the door. She was a little surprised to see Hattori. He didn't match the image of a client in normal times. He was too young. Then she saw Winnet standing behind her and smiling. She showed a welcoming expression: "Ms. Winnet, you are discharged so soon!"

Hattori did not join in the conversation, but walked directly into the office and looked around. If he was not a visitor, he would have started searching other rooms in the house.

Kudo! Come out quickly! Stop hiding!

Winette handed the gift to Xiaolan, and in response to her polite smile of "How can I feel so embarrassed?", the two of them briefly exchanged greetings.

Xiaolan is very enthusiastic about Winnet. Not only does she teach her knitting skills, she is also grateful for what Winnet has done at the municipal building.

"You should tell me, I'll come to visit again," Xiaolan said halfway, and noticed Hattori walking around the room, feeling a little strange, "Miss Winnet, is this your friend?"

"No, I met him at the entrance of Teitan High School. He said he wanted to..."

"I'm here to see Kudo." Hattori Heiji interrupted her and stated his purpose directly.

Find Shinichi.

Xiaolan was slightly stunned. Just now, she was still talking to Shinichi, but the long-awaited communication did not make her happy. She was almost listening to Shinichi talking about what he had done recently and what he was fascinated by, as if he didn't care about her at all.

No matter how slow you are, you should at least show some concern for her, right?

How infuriating!

Xiaolan's anger towards Shinichi also caused her to lower her attitude towards Hattori.

"I don't know where Shinichi is."

Xiaolan told the truth, but her words sounded a bit angry, making it hard for people to believe her.

Being suddenly interrupted by Hattori, Miss Winnet——

Not! Angry! At! All! Oh!

She put the limited edition specialty yokan in her hand into the refrigerator and came to greet Kogoro who had just put down the newspaper.

Kogoro was extremely grateful to Winette for saving his daughter's life. He had just taken a nap while leaning on a newspaper, and it was not until Winette greeted him that he suddenly woke up and straightened his body.

As a qualified man, you must never show embarrassment in front of women!

Kogoro hurriedly greeted them and expressed his gratitude to Winnet: "Oh, I heard from Xiaolan, if it weren't for you, Miss Winnet, the situation would have been dangerous. You are worthy of being the daughter of a big company."

Winnet asked the police to keep the information confidential, but Xiaolan was by her side at the time, and after escaping, she also confided in people around her. This actually made Winnet feel very distressed, so she had to bring out a fictitious university experience and a fake corporate learning experience.

As for the specific content, while learning the high-tech, you can also apply it to other areas and talk nonsense about other application areas of the fuze device to fool people.

With the evidence from the parties involved, her lies became the truth.

Compared to these perfunctory reasons, real killer training seems more like a fantasy.

She thought that most so-called former corporate daughters would not have the skills to assemble bombs.

Hattori asked Xiaolan twice more, and the result was the same denial. This made him more convinced that Kudo was nearby: "It's no use lying to me, miss! I know that guy is here, call him out quickly. Where is Kudo Shinichi? Call him out quickly!"

Hattori was convinced that Kudo Shinichi was definitely hiding on purpose.

Miss Suzuki told him so much, how could she return empty-handed just because of a few words?

At the same time, a corner of the office door was opened——

"Ah!"

Conan, with a school bag on his back and snot running down his nose, ran into the room.

The drooping snot reminded Winnett of Ah Dai in Crayon Shin-chan.

Coming back so late, he must have played with the primary school students. It seems that he has perfectly integrated into the primary school group, even with this silly look that seems to need care.

Damn it!

She also wants to play with Ai!

If she wasn't too deeply involved with the organization and the drug's effects were not stable, Miss Winnet would have wanted to just show off a bottle of APTX4869!

However, if seventeen or eighteen years old becomes the first grade of elementary school, wouldn’t I become the third or fourth grader?

Miss Winnett, who has been to the birthplace of evil, said that it is impossible for them to play together!

it's a pity!

Conan's silly look attracted Xiaolan's attention.

"Conan, why do you have a cold too?"

When talking to Shinichi on the phone, Xiaolan noticed his heavy nasal voice, and she didn't expect Conan to also catch a cold.

That’s right, it’s autumn now, and the change of seasons is when colds are more common.

( Thousand xun )九①⒋⑨零三⑦⑨八

Xiaolan took out a handkerchief and wiped Conan's nose and face: "Conan, what's going on between you and Shinichi? Is the common cold popular recently?"

Hattori Heiji captured the key information.

"Kudo Shinichi has a cold? Since you said Kudo Shinichi is not here, how do you know he has a cold?"

Xiaolan closed the door of the office: "It's the phone!" She explained, "Shinichi's nasal tone sounded very heavy on the phone just now."

"Kudo Shinichi has fought his way here?" Hattori persisted.

Xiaolan is already a little impatient: "He sometimes calls here, isn't that okay?"

Hattori Heiji stroked his chin, thought carefully, and came to a conclusion in his heart: "Everyone says that you are Kudo's woman, and it turns out to be true."

"woman!?"

Xiaolan screamed loudly to hide her shame.

When Winette saw her like this, she thought that she was simply confessing herself and was in the state of first love. Conan next to her also blushed, and the two people's movements were surprisingly synchronized.

How could such a rumor come about?

Xiaolan couldn't calm down and immediately asked back: "Who told you this?"

Hattori remained calm: "Of course it was your friend Suzuki Sonoko who said that."

Besides, she hadn't lied to him yet.

Although the prediction was slightly off, as she said, the two were definitely in a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship.

"She said that Kudo didn't come to school, so he must be hiding here with you. Is that right?"

Xiaolan pouted.

My head was filled with Yuanzi's smug smile.

This woman!

Next time we meet, we must knock on the door!

Conan's thoughts were synchronized as well, and he cursed Sonoko in his heart.

"Kudou called, what did he say?"

"Nothing. He told me about an interesting mystery novel he read recently, and also about the Major League. He also asked about how her classmates at school were doing and what had happened recently." Xiaolan listed the contents of the conversation one by one.

"So what about you?" Hattori raised his head slightly, revealing his eyes hidden behind his baseball cap.

"My business..." Xiaolan suddenly became a little disappointed. "Hearing what you said, Shinichi always talks about his own business and never asks about me..."

Not only this time, even when he was involved in the bomb case, he didn't care about himself.

Xiaolan felt aggrieved.

Upon hearing this, Hattori immediately ran to the window of the office, opened it, checked the street view across the street, and confirmed that the location of the office was convenient for observation.

Maori Kogoro was startled by his sudden action, "What's wrong?"

Winette continued to pretend she didn't know Hattori, since they weren't close anyway.

Seeing Hattori's unusual behavior, Xiaolan clenched her fists and followed him in confusion, "Wait a minute, what are you doing?"

"Don't you find it strange?"

"Ok?"

"Since he calls from time to time, he should at least ask about the other person's recent situation and express his concern, such as asking if the other person is doing well recently... Do you think there is anyone who doesn't care?" Hattori searched the observation point outside the window and found nothing unusual, and then continued, "There is only one reason why he didn't ask you, and that is that Kudo must have been paying attention to you somewhere."

"what!"

When Xiaolan heard this, Shinichi's face popped up in her head, and she went from being stunned to shy.

Hattori continued, "Kudo must be peeking at you from somewhere. This guy is really annoying."

His words caught the attention of Winnet who was sitting on the sofa.

This person is indeed no ordinary person and has outstanding observation skills.

Winnet tried to change her position. If it were her, it would be difficult for her to draw such a conclusion from this point, even if it was just a speculation.

However, it is quite accurate.

Winnet saw Conan's face full of shock, sweat on his cheeks, and he stood there in a daze.

It turns out they don’t know each other.

Although she had no obligation to help Conan conceal his identity, if she was discovered so easily by a detective boy, if the organization sent people to investigate in the future, the truth would definitely be revealed. It would be like an unstable time bomb.

Kogoro looked at this arrogant guy who barged in with a bit of displeasure, "By the way, who are you?"

"By the way, I haven't introduced myself yet," Hattori took off his cap, "My name is Hattori Heiji, and I'm a high school detective like Kudo Shinichi."

“High school student!”

"detective!"

Maori and his daughter were surprised.

The next second, Conan, who was still fighting the disease, sneezed loudly.

Hattori turned the brim of his hat to the back of his head and looked at Conan, "Little brother, you have a cold. I just happened to bring a good medicine."

Hattori opened his backpack and took out a bottle wrapped in linen, which even came with a cylindrical clay teacup.

Kogoro stroked his chin and recalled: "Now that you mention it, I seem to have heard before that there is a very powerful detective in Kansai."

"That's right, me and Kudo Shinichi," Hattori said as he poured the liquid, "one is Hattori from Kansai, and the other is Kudo from Kanto. People often compare us."

Hattori handed the cup to Conan.

Winette watched, feeling something strange.

What Hattori just took gave Winnet a strong sense of familiarity—

It looks like a glass bottle of domestic wine.

so similar!

"Oh, thank you!" Conan held the cup with both hands and thanked him frankly, nodding his head like a crow drinking water.

"But I didn't expect that I haven't heard any news about Kudo recently, and I haven't seen him in the news. There are also rumors that Kudo Shinichi has disappeared."

Hattori said with a smile.

Kogoro pointed at himself and smiled.

That kid Shinichi, no!

He is the real detective!

"So now Kanto is me, Kogoro Mori..."

He was halfway through boasting when he was suddenly interrupted by his own daughter:

"So what? Do you have something to talk to Shinichi about?" Xiaolan yelled at him.
