Conan: The Heart Thief

The red glow in the sky gradually faded away, and the black curtain began to cover the earth.

Along the way, the three of them remained silent and did not speak. Xiao Ai was also thinking about something in her heart.

If this woman is a peripheral member of the organization! Then this woman's identity disguise is much better than that of my sister! After all, she is still "engaged" in a very formal profession, and has a fixed "home" although it is not big and not luxurious! My sister, on the other hand, has no fixed place to live and is always doing some dangerous tasks...

Therefore, Xiao Ai subconsciously felt sorry for her sister. They were both peripheral members, so why was she treated so well? However, now that her sister had left the organization, it didn't matter.

When we arrived at Rena Mizunashi's residence, it was a very high-end apartment, which was very suitable for her identity as a female host of Nichiuri TV.

Rena Mizuno noticed Ai's doubtful expression and thought that she was just shy, so she smiled gently at her and said, "Ai, do you want some juice?"

Xiao Ai didn't want to drink it, but she was a child now! Naturally, she could only nod shyly and said: "I want to drink it! Thank you, Sister Reina!"

"Xiao Ai is so good!"

Mizuno Reina immediately smiled and looked up at Lin Xiao and said, "Lin Xiao, what would you like to drink?"

Lin Xiao shook his head and said, "I don't need that. I'll go check the gate now! By the way, put a pinhole camera outside the door, so that it will be convenient to capture that person's trick!"

"yes!"

When Mizuno Rena heard this, her eyes lit up.

Why didn't she think of putting a camera or something to take a picture of the person who rang the doorbell? She is indeed a detective with a sharp mind! "Great, thank you for your help, Lin Xiao!"

Mizuno Rena thanked her sincerely.

Lin Xiao smiled and shook his head: "Why should I thank you? This is my job!"

As he said that, Lin Xiao dragged Xiao Ai towards the door, while Mizunashi Rena went to the kitchen to prepare juice...

At the door of the apartment, Lin Xiao was installing a pinhole camera on the door while thinking about something.

However, when he caught a glimpse of the expressionless Xiao Ai out of the corner of his eye, he couldn't help but turn his eyes away.

Lin Xiao thought that since he came here with the excuse of spying on Rena Mizuno, there were some things that had to be done! It was just the right time to find something for Xiao Ai to do, so that she wouldn't be suspicious at that time! So, Lin Xiao quickly squatted down and whispered to Xiao Ai: "Xiao Ai, go and take a look, Rena Mizuno is in the kitchen, right?"

Xiao Ai was shocked, knowing that Lin Xiao was probably going to say something or do something, so she quickly stepped over with her short legs to take a look.

A second later, he ran back.

Xiao Ai leaned over to Lin Xiao's ear and nodded in a low voice: "Yes! Pour juice and make tea in the kitchen!"

"very good!"

Lin Xiao immediately took out a bug from his pocket and handed it to Xiao Ai. He said solemnly: "Xiao Ai, I have a task for you now. Can you do it?"

Xiao Ai took a look at the bug in her hand, and immediately nodded her head like a chick pecking at rice.

Lin Xiao smiled and touched Xiao Ai's furry little head, saying: "Good! I knew that my Xiao Ai is the bravest!"

Xiao Ai felt that she was being looked down upon and wanted to refute, but the overall situation was more important, and she should not conflict with Lin Xiao at this time.

"I need you to secretly stick this under the coffee table in the living room. Remember to stick it a little further inward. You are small and it is not easy to be discovered. Even if you are seen, you can use the excuse that you are just playing! But still be careful not to be discovered!"

"Xiao Ai, can you do this?"

Lin Xiao grabbed Xiao Ai's shoulders with both hands and said with an expression as if he was entrusting her with a heavy responsibility.

Xiao Ai couldn't help but be infected and also looked solemn. She nodded seriously and said: "I can do it!"

"Okay! Go quickly! You can drink sweet juice when you're done!"

Lin Xiao subconsciously said in a coaxing tone.

After hearing this, Xiao Ai's face suddenly turned dark, and she couldn't help but said: "Lin Xiao, I'm not a real child, what's the tone of your voice!"

After all, she was about the same age as Lin Xiao, but Lin Xiao's tone made her look like an ignorant child! And that juice... was well prepared by the "enemy".

"Uh……"

Lin Xiao suppressed a smile and said, "I forgot. I'm used to it! Okay, Xiao Ai, hurry up!"

"Yes."

Xiao Ai immediately held the bug tightly and trotted to the living room.

Lin Xiao looked at Xiao Ai's small, vigilant back, curled his lips slightly, and thought to himself: It seems that Xiao Ai has adapted well, step by step, he believes that in the near future, he will be able to make Xiao Ai completely eliminate the fear of the Black Organization from the bottom of her heart! Stand under the sun again! And by that time... Lin Xiao suddenly showed a cruel smile at the corner of his mouth.

It is also time for that crow-like organization to disappear from this world.

Chapter 342: Hitting Mizuno Reina's Bamboo Pole

Living room. Xiao Ai sat next to Lin Xiao and drank juice obediently, as if she was not the one who put the bug under the coffee table like a thief. Mentally, her quality is still good!

Lin Xiao and Mizuno Rena were drinking tea and chatting.

Lin Xiao took a sip of tea and said with a smile: "Reina's tea-making skills are really good. By the way! I have installed a camera on the door!"

"Even if we can't catch the guy who rang the doorbell tomorrow morning, the camera will definitely capture his face!"

Lin Xiao said confidently: "Lian Nai, don't worry! I will definitely help you catch him no matter what!"

Mizuno Rena naturally trusted Lin Xiao very much and let him do whatever he wanted.

"By the way, Reina, when did the doorbell incident start?"

"It started about two months ago, every Saturday morning around 6:30!"

"Then Reina, what happened to you two months ago? Think carefully about it, maybe some changes can be made!"

Lin Xiao asked. He even found it funny when he asked. He forgot the specific reason for the doorbell incident, but he knew that the "criminal" was actually a little boy! So, for such a little ghost, he made so many preparations, which was enough! But if it weren't for the little ghost, he wouldn't be able to stay here tonight. Now that he thought about it, he was not a naughty child...

After listening to Lin Xiao's question, Mizuno Reina thought about it carefully, but she couldn't think of anything different. However, she still hesitated and said: "If there is anything, it is that my job has been adjusted!"

Lin Xiao immediately asked: "What adjustment?"

"My original job was to host the Good Morning 7: show, but two months ago I was transferred to the evening news program!" Rena Mizunashi replied.

"Oh, I see! By the way, Reina, Yoko is also a guest on Good Morning 7. That's not how you got to know her, is it?" Lin Xiao laughed.

Mizunashi Reina also smiled and nodded: "Yes! At that time, Yoko and I were both responsible for the broadcast of the same time slot!"

"But if you put it that way..."

Mizuno Reina suddenly thought of something and said hesitantly: "Maybe the person who rang the doorbell randomly started two months ago. After all, before that, I had to go out at 7 in the morning because I was responsible for the Good Morning 4: program!"

"So, even if that person came and rang the doorbell at 6:30, I would have been out long ago so I wouldn't know!"

Mizuno Rena said this with a wry smile.

Lin Xiao pretended to be thoughtful... and just when the living room fell silent.

Suddenly, at this time, a clear and pleasant little voice sounded!

"Has the random doorbell ringing been happening non-stop for the past two months?"

Hearing this question, Lin Xiao and Mizuno Rena were both stunned.

Lin Xiao looked at Xiao Ai in surprise. He didn't expect that she would ask this to Mizuno Rena.

Then, Mizunashi Reina answered the question very seriously: "Yes! He comes back every Saturday... No! He didn't come once!"

"Eh?" Lin Xiao looked at Mizuno Rena when he heard that.

"From Monday to Friday of the week before, I went abroad for an interview. I came back on Friday, but I didn't hear the doorbell the next day!" Mizunashi Rena said this, her eyebrows were completely furrowed, and she looked a little upset. "Oh, right! And last month, on the Tuesday of the week when I took consecutive days off, there was also a doorbell incident. Not only that, but that time, there was also...something strange placed at the door!"

Lin Xiao immediately asked with concern: "What is it?"

Shui Wu Lian said with a bad look on his face: "It's a bottle of sleeping pills!"

When these words were spoken, Lin Xiao and Xiao Ai were both shocked.

Xiao Ai immediately blinked her big grape-like eyes and said in a baby voice, "Sister Reina, don't worry, my brother is very powerful, he will definitely catch the bad guy, don't be afraid!"

When Mizuno Rena heard this, she was so moved! What this little girl said was so heartwarming! That little expression was so cute! "Thank you, Ai, I believe in your brother!"

Mizuno Reina smiled and said softly. This time, she couldn't help but reach out and touch Xiao Ai's head with her white and soft hands.

Xiao Ai did not hide, but nodded seriously with her icy blue eyes: "Yes! Brother is the best!"

On the side, watching these two women bragging about each other... Lin Xiao couldn't help but look at Mizunashi Rena with a hidden sympathetic look. This woman was completely deceived by Xiao Ai's appearance!

"Ms. Mizuno, don't worry! I promise I will catch the troublemaker!"

"Thank you, brother and sister. It's already so late. Are you hungry? I'll treat you to a midnight snack."

Lin Xiao and Xiao Ai did not refuse and followed Mizuno Rena out for a midnight snack.

Tokyo has a rich nightlife, and there are all kinds of delicious food at night.

Rena Mizuno treated them to fried beef, and Lin Xiao and Xiao Ai enjoyed the meal very much.

Taking the opportunity, Mizuno Rena asked Lin Xiao about Hondou Eisuke's situation. She really cared about her younger brother.

"Ms. Mizuno, why are you so interested in the transfer student in my class? Do you know him?"

"do not know……"

Mizuno Rena looked guilty.

"How about this. I'll give you Hondou Eisuke's email address, and you can talk to him yourself."

"No, forget it."

Rena Mizunashi didn't dare to take Hondou Eisuke's email address. She was worried that she would be recognized by Hondou Eisuke. If the organization found out that she and Hondou Eisuke were related, both she and Hondou Eisuke would die.

"That's right. Although Hondou Eisuke is often bullied, it's his fate. There's nothing we can do about it."

Lin Xiao did not intentionally target Hondou Eisuke, it's because Hondou Eisuke's character is designed to be an unlucky guy, and it's normal for an unlucky guy to be bullied every day.

"Lin Jun, can you please take care of Hondou Eisuke? I'll entrust you with that."

"Ms. Mizuno, your last commission hasn't even been completed yet, and you've already received a new commission."

"Lin Jun, you are a great detective, please."

"This commission is not easy to handle. It takes a lot of thought. My asking price is very high."

Lin Xiao deliberately knocked on the bamboo pole, but it was actually very simple to deal with, just let Suzuki Sonoko take care of it. In Teitan High School, if Suzuki Sonoko spoke up, no one would dare to continue bullying Hondou Eisuke, which would be more effective than Lin Xiao personally coming forward.

"Whatever the price is, I'm willing to satisfy you."

Since Mizunashi Rena said so, Lin Xiao will take care of Hondou Eisuke a little.

Haibara Ai seemed to be lost in thought. She also couldn't understand why Mizuno Rena took such good care of a stranger. Could it be that she had the same relationship with her sister?
