Conan: The Heart Thief

Lin Xiao said lightly.

"Detective Lin is too modest. Everyone says that Detective Lin is the rising star who replaced high school detective Kudo Shinichi and is the true savior of the police force."

Lin Xiao felt it was a bit funny. The emotional detective circle was just like the entertainment circle, where only newcomers laughed but old ones didn't cry.

"The high school detective Kudo Shinichi is very strong in orthodox reasoning." Lin Xiao said truthfully. If it weren't for his powerful cheats, he would not be able to beat Kudo Shinichi in reasoning.

"Haha... Detective Lin, you are so modest... The program team has carefully prepared a few simple reasoning questions for you. We want to know Detective Lin's true ability."

Matsuo Takashi took out a big card and said, "This is a very simple reasoning question..."

The guest on the side, Yoko Okino, became a cheerleader and encouraged loudly: "Detective Lin, you can do it!"

Just as Yoko Okino said, Lin Xiao easily solved the questions given by the program team and gave the answers.

"Wow! Detective Lin got it right!"

Matsuo Takashi was slightly surprised. He didn't expect Lin Xiao to get the answer right. He thought that the question he racked his brains for would make the awesome detective lose face.

He picked up another question board, on which was written another reasoning question, a closed-room murder case.

After he finished speaking to the camera, he turned to Lin Xiao again: "So, Detective Lin, did you find the answer quickly this time, just like last time?"

Lin Xiao picked up the pen and began to write down the answers on the answer sheet.

Yoko Okino was also very curious and waiting for the answer.

"Detective Lin has already written down the answer!"

Matsuo Takashi smiled and said, "Then let's see if Detective Lin's answer is correct or not?"

When Lin Xiao turned over the answer sheet, Takafumi Matsuo looked a little surprised.

"Congratulations Detective Lin for getting the answer right again!"

There was also warm applause in the studio. Obviously, everyone was surprised by Lin Xiao's extraordinary reasoning ability. It was not easy to just understand the questions, and to solve them was not something that ordinary people could do.

"It's just a small trick."

Lin Xiao presented an elegant and easy-going detective image on live TV, and he immediately gained countless fans. It was a rare appearance on TV, and I wonder how many little fans he had.

Anyway, Yoko Okino is already Lin Xiao's little fan girl, with love in her eyes, like a crazy fan who has forgotten that she is a popular idol.

Takashi Matsuo noticed that Okino Yoko was fascinated by Lin Xiao, and couldn't help but laugh: "Ms. Yoko? You look surprised."

"Yes, yes."

Okino Yoko quickly looked at Matsuo Takashi, then smiled and said, "I... haven't figured it out yet, but Detective Lin has already written down the correct answer. It would be great if I were half as smart as Detective Lin."

Then, Takashi Matsuo looked at Yoko Okino and signaled her with his eyes to take out the last question.

After receiving the hint, Okino Yoko turned to Lin Xiao and said, "Detective Lin, you are really amazing!"

Lin Xiao said bluntly: "This is the basic quality of being an excellent detective."

Okino Yoko said with a lovely smile: "It just so happens that I have prepared a reasoning question about a murder case in advance! I want to personally test Detective Lin's ability."

"Here comes the murder mystery questions!" Yoko Okino took out the drawing board beside her.

After Okino Yoko asked the question, Matsuo Takashi tapped the board and said, "When the program editor gave me the question, it took me two hours to solve it. Detective Lin, as a detective, how long do you think it will take you to find out who the murderer is?"

After reading the question, Lin Xiao raised his hand.

"five minutes?"

Takashi Matsuo looked at Lin Xiao in disbelief.

"No, it only takes five seconds."

Lin Xiao emphasized it particularly.

Takashi Matsuo felt that his intelligence was insulted.

"Five seconds?"

When Takashi Matsuo heard this, he couldn't help but laugh.

"Detective Lin, even though you deduced the answers to the first two questions very quickly, I still think you overestimate yourself. You know, logical reasoning and murder reasoning are two completely different things."

"Hehe... I'm just telling the truth. Five seconds is enough." Lin Xiao smiled contemptuously. He would use actual actions to slap Matsuo Takashi in the face.

Matsuo Takashi felt that he was being looked down upon and was quite annoyed. He just didn't believe that Lin Xiao could solve the problem that stumped him in one go: "Detective Lin, you are really humorous."

"No, no, Mr. Matsuo, this is not about humor, this is just the gap between professionals and non-professionals."

Lin Xiao seriously corrected Takashi Matsuo's mistake.

"Okay, since Detective Lin is so confident, then please tell us who the murderer is! And you must give a reasonable reason."

"Of course……"

Lin Xiao gave a perfect answer to the question and provided a reasonable explanation.

Okino Yoko felt that Lin Xiao was smart and handsome, and was exactly what she wanted. When her eyes fell on Lin Xiao, she couldn't move them away, and couldn't help but smile sincerely.

After Lin Xiao finished his reasoning, he noticed Okino Yoko's gaze, turned around and looked at Okino Yoko, who then looked away angrily.

Takashi Matsuo was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that Lin Xiao could actually solve the case assigned by the program team in just five seconds. He felt his pig-headed face burning.

Matsuo Takashi said: "Lin Xiao is indeed a famous detective. His reasoning and observation abilities are very strong. I have to admit he is better than me!"

Okino Yoko said to Lin Xiao with a little shyness: "Detective Lin, you are awesome. From today on, I will be your biggest fan!"

Chapter 333 Lin Xiao feels provoked

The shooting is over.

"I'm going to the bathroom and I'll be back soon."

Takashi Matsuo took out his cell phone from his pocket and hurriedly left the studio.

Not long after, Takashi Matsuo returned to the studio.

He was sweating profusely and kept wiping the sweat with a handkerchief.

"Why is Mr. Matsuo sweating so much? That amount of sweat...did he go for a run during his break?"

Lin Xiao used a curious tone to leave a deep impression on Okino Yoko, and Okino Yoko also noticed that something was wrong with Matsuo Takashi.

"Yes, Mr. Matsuo is a person who pays great attention to health." Yoko Okino agreed.

Matsuo Takashi came over, wiping his sweat, and said to the two, "Let's continue."

"Don't you want to take a break? You're sweating profusely."

Lin Xiao said kindly.

"Well... just rest for another minute, and then I'll tell you about the next part of the activity."

During the recording time, Lin Xiao and Okino Yoko exchanged glances, and it was hard not to think that the relationship between Lin Xiao and Okino Yoko was very unusual!

During the entire recording, Yoko Okino looked absent-minded, but fortunately she was just a guest.

……

Finally, the recording is over!

"Okay, thank you for your hard work!"

The program editor expressed great satisfaction with this recording.

"Thanks for your hard work."

Whether it was the hosts Takashi Matsuo and Yoko Okino, or the guest Lin Xiao, after the show ended, they began to thank the staff continuously.

After the recording, Yoko walked over to Lin Xiao and whispered, "Lin Xiao, don't be in a hurry to leave later. Sister will take you on a date."

While speaking, Yoko was nervously observing her surroundings, afraid that someone would know.

Lin Xiao was a little surprised that Okino Yoko was so direct. He chuckled and said, "Ms. Yoko, I understand. I will wait for you."

"Just call me Yoko."

"Yoko."

"whee."

Yoko Okino's face blushed, she smiled charmingly, and left in a hurry.

Lin Xiao was also preparing to leave, and went outside the building to wait for Okino Yoko. As soon as he walked out of the door, he saw a staff member rushing over in a panic. After seeing Lin Xiao, he shouted as if he had seen a savior: "Detective Lin! Something happened, please come with me."

Seeing his panic, Lin Xiao consoled him, "Calm down first. What happened?"

The staff member bent over and supported his knees, panting heavily and saying, "Suwa... Editor Suwa was killed in the mixing room on the fourth floor!"

"what!"

Lin Xiao didn't expect that a murder would happen at this time. Wouldn't the date be ruined?

"Did you call the police?"

"The police have been called."

"That's okay."

"Wait, you're a detective, you can't just ignore it!"

The staff forced Lin Xiao to take the elevator to the crime scene on the fourth floor.

When I entered the elevator, Takashi Matsuo was there.

Lin Xiao said, "Mr. Matsuo."

"Hmm? What's wrong? Detective Lin."

"You've heard about Editor Suwa's murder, right?"

Lin Xiao lowered his voice, making Matsuo Takashi sound vaguely oppressive.
