Sonoko nodded and said to Lin Xiaofeng, "Yes. I told Hattori Heiji that Shinichi Kudo is no longer the high school detective of Kanto; you are now the high school detective of Kanto. And Ran and I have become your girlfriends. Therefore, when Hattori Heiji heard that we were coming to Osaka together, he insisted on being our tour guide."

After hearing Sonoko's explanation, Ran understood the whole story: "It seems that Hattori Heiji is targeting Kofuyu."

Sonoko didn't quite understand why Hattori Heiji was targeting Hayashi Kouichi: "Why?"

Lin Xiaofeng said calmly, "Heiji Hattori claims to be a high school detective from Kansai, and he wants to compete with me, the high school detective from Kanto who replaced Shinichi Kudo."

"I see." Sonoko now understood Hattori Heiji's ulterior motives. "Kaze, do you want to see Hattori Heiji?"

"Meeting Hattori Heiji wouldn't hurt." Hattori Heiji has a sweet, demure childhood friend and a stunningly beautiful mother. Meeting Hattori Heiji would be a sure win for Lin Xiaofeng. "Ran, you won't object, will you?"

"Of course I have no objection." The simple-minded Xiaolan thought it would be perfect to have a local from Osaka as their tour guide.

147. Hattori Heiji flaunts his beautiful mother.

Upon arriving in Osaka and exiting Tokyo Airport, I bumped into Heiji Hattori.

Heiji Hattori is dark-skinned; despite having an Asian face, his skin is black, which is strange and striking.

"Oh! You must be Lin Xiaofeng, the high school detective from Kanto."

Hattori Kunihira reacted to Lin Xiaofeng with a feeling of electric shock, rushing to Lin Xiaofeng's side and wanting to give her a bear hug.

Lin Xiaofeng quickly dodged, and Hattori Heiji missed his target. Seeing Hattori Heiji's behavior, he really wanted to tell him that he had mistaken him for someone else. However, when he thought of Hattori Heiji's childhood friend and beautiful mother, he felt he had no choice but to make this friend.

"I am Lin Xiaofeng, the high school detective. Even if you are my fan, please don't get so excited." Lin Xiaofeng pretended not to recognize Hattori Heiji, but in reality, he recognized Hattori Heiji at a glance. Hattori Heiji's dark skin was too unique.

"I'm not your fan!" Hattori Heiji stood up straight and coughed. "I am the legendary Kansai high school detective Hattori Heiji. Lin Xiaofeng, remember my name, I will be your nemesis for life."

"Uh—" Lin Xiaofeng was so embarrassed by Heiji's outfit that he felt like a flock of crows were flying over his head.

Fureibu Hiratsugu waved to Sonoko: "Miss Suzuki, thanks to your help, I was able to successfully meet the high school detective from Kanagawa."

Sonoko still looked at Hattori Heiji with disdain, waved her hand, and didn't say anything.

Hattori Heiji then pointed at Mouri Ran: "You must be Shinichi Kudo's girlfriend, Mouri Ran, I guessed right!"

Ran Mouri puffed out her cheeks and replied, "I am Ran Mouri, that's true, but I'm not Shinichi Kudo's girlfriend. I'm Xiaofeng Lin's girlfriend, thank you!"

Heiji Hattori, with an expression that said nothing escaped his notice, said, "I understand, you don't need to explain. Lin Xiaofeng replaced Shinichi Kudo as the high school detective. Not only was Shinichi Kudo stripped of his title as a high school detective, but his girlfriend was also taken away. Poor thing..."

Ran Mouri immediately retorted, "Heiji Hattori, you don't understand anything. From beginning to end, I've only ever liked Lin Xiaofeng, and I've never liked Shinichi Kudo!"

Ran Mouri glared angrily at Heiji Hattori, while Lin Xiaofeng gently patted Ran's shoulder: "Ran, why are you arguing with an idiot?"

When Hattori Heiji heard Lin Xiaofeng slander him as an idiot, he instantly became unhappy: "Lin Xiaofeng, how am I an idiot? Am I wrong in my reasoning?"

Lin Xiaofeng chuckled and said, "Hattori Heiji, all your deductions are correct."

"That's more like it." Hattori Heiji said with a smug grin.

"Then you still dare to approach me? Aren't you afraid I'll steal your girlfriend?" Lin Xiaofeng deliberately provoked Hattori Heiji.

"Hehe, I don't have a girlfriend." Hattori Heiji grinned, revealing his big, white teeth, confident in his superior abilities. "Besides, my reasoning skills are definitely no worse than yours!"

"I understand, Hattori Heiji, you want to challenge me?"

As I predicted, after I replaced Shinichi Kudo, Heiji Hattori stopped challenging Shinichi and started challenging me instead.

"exactly!"

Hattori Heiji spoke frankly, his eyes filled with fighting spirit.

Sonoko immediately called a halt to the tense standoff between the two: "Stop right now!"

Sonoko pointed at Hattori Heiji and warned, "Hattori Heiji, we came to Osaka for tourism, not to play mystery games with you! If you get in our way, I won't let you get away with it."

Heiji Hattori didn't want to offend Sonoko, after all, he was only able to know Lin Xiaofeng because of her help. Since they were just there for fun, he could challenge Lin Xiaofeng another time.

"Ms. Suzuki, don't worry, as I said, I'll be your tour guide and there won't be any unexpected problems!"

Hattori Heiji led the three of them toward the airport parking lot, explaining his plan as they walked.

"Over the next few days, let me show you around Osaka Prefecture. We'll visit famous historical sites and try some local delicacies. To show my sincerity, you three don't need to stay in a hotel; just stay at my house."

Upon hearing that they were staying at someone else's house, Ran immediately refused: "No, no... Hattori-kun, you're too kind. It would be too much trouble for us to stay at your house."

Sonoko also felt it was inappropriate: "Hattori, you're letting us stay at your house, do you have some other intentions?"

Hattori Heiji said hospitably, "How could that be? I just wanted to introduce you to my family. Besides, my house is very big, so it's no problem for the three of you to stay here."

Hattori Heiji turned his gaze to Lin Xiaofeng. After all, Lin Xiaofeng was the two girls' boyfriend, and as long as Lin Xiaofeng agreed, the two girls' objections would be ineffective.

Lin Xiaofeng thought he could stay at Hattori Heiji's house so he could catch a glimpse of Mrs. Hattori's beauty.

"Hattori-kun, are your parents home?"

"Oh, my dad is usually busy with work and isn't home. My mom is a housewife and stays home. What's wrong?"

"Won't the three of us moving into your house cause trouble for your mother?"

"No, no... My mom 043 knows you're my friends, Hattori Heiji, and she'll definitely welcome you."

Lin Xiaofeng looked at the two women: "Hattori-kun is so hospitable... I think we should just stay at the Hattori residence?"

Since Lin Xiaofeng had already made his decision, the two women could no longer object.

Out of a sense of justice, Sonoko decided to give Hattori Heiji a heads-up.

"Hattori-kun, I heard that your mother is a famous beauty in Osaka. Is that true?"

"Of course it's true. My mom is super beautiful, she's amazing at housework, and she cooks delicious food. When you come, you must try my mom's cooking."

“You have such a wonderful mother, and you’re still home alone. I advise you not to let Lin Xiaofeng move in.”

"why?"

Hattori Heiji looked completely bewildered.

Ran Mouri believes that family scandals should not be aired in public, and the fact that Lin Xiaofeng likes his friend's mother should not be spread.

"Yuanzi, I'll keep an eye on Xiaofeng with you later. He should be fine."

"Hmm..." Sonoko nodded, then warned Lin Xiaofeng, "Xiaofeng, Hattori-kun's father is the Superintendent General of the Osaka Prefectural Police. If anything happens, I can't protect you, understand?"

Lin Xiaofeng put on an innocent face: "Yuanzi, Xiaolan, don't look at me like that, I'm not that kind of person!"

148. Discussing the Way and Appreciating the Mean

Hattori Heiji was overjoyed to receive Lin Xiaofeng's approval and led the three lovely women to the parking lot.

Upon arriving at the parking lot, they were greeted by a police car.

"I'll have the driver take you around Osaka first, then we'll go to Tsutenkaku Tower to enjoy the beautiful scenery. Around noon, we'll have lunch in Shinsaibashi..."

"Wait a minute, the car you're talking about, it's not this police car, is it?" Lin Xiaofeng asked, pointing to the police car in the parking lot.

"Yeah, this is the latest police car in Osaka, isn't it great? Riding in a police car for a spin, doesn't it feel really cool?" Hattori Heiji proudly showed off to Lin Xiaofeng.

"Using a public vehicle for personal purposes, you really know how it is, Hattori-kun."

"Hehehe... It's nothing."

The police car door opened, and a detective wearing square-framed glasses and a buzz cut stepped out, smiling as he introduced himself.

"I am Yusuke Sakata from the Higashijiri Police Station of the Osaka Prefectural Police."

The three put their luggage in the trunk and got into the car. Sakata Yusuke sat in the driver's seat and drove, while Hattori Heiji sat in the passenger seat, introducing the sights of Osaka to the three of them, much like a tour guide.

After driving around Osaka for a while, Hattori Heiji turned to the three of them and said, "Next, let's go visit Tsutenkaku Tower."

Lin Xiaofeng asked the two women on either side, "Have you ever been to Tongtian Pavilion?"

Xiaolan shook her head: "No, but I've seen it on TV. It's not as pretty as the Tokyo Tower."

Sonoko crossed her arms: "I'm not interested in that potato-shaped building."

"Hey... you can complain all you want, but don't be so loud." There are two Osaka people in front of us; we can't be so disrespectful.

Hattori Heiji chuckled dryly and turned around: "Maybe we shouldn't go to Tsutenkaku at all."

Lin Xiaofeng quickly said, "No, no, no... let's go to Tongtian Pavilion. We've never been there before, so it would be nice to go and take a look."

Tsutenkaku Tower, also known as the Eiffel Tower of Naniwa, is a symbol of Osaka.

Tsutenkaku Tower, a landmark building in Osaka, stands a towering 103 meters tall. If you want to quickly get a feel for the different locations in Osaka, Tsutenkaku is worth a visit.

Although it was daytime, the Shinsekai Shopping Street at the foot of Tsutenkaku Tower was still bustling with people, with shops lining the streets. Izakayas, kushikatsu (deep-fried skewers), and other snack shops emitted tempting aromas.

Led by Heiji Hattori, the group passed through the shopping street and arrived at the foot of Tsutenkaku Tower.

The underground entrance, decorated with a light-colored rainbow pattern, is adorned with colorful lanterns, and even during the day, it attracts quite a few visitors.

As you descend the stairs to the basement level, the first thing you see is a souvenir shop displaying Osaka-style souvenirs.

Tickets can also be purchased here.

"Do any of you have an Osaka Amazing Pass?"

Behind the counter, a neatly dressed male manager asked respectfully.

"No, we'll buy 5 adult tickets."

Hattori Heiji casually pulled out his wallet.

Heiji Hattori's father is the Superintendent General of the Osaka Prefectural Police, so he's quite wealthy.

After receiving the tickets, Hattori Heiji led the group into the elevator, pressed the floor button, and the elevator began to ascend.

"Did you know?" Hattori Heiji pointed to the ground, "Although it's not very noticeable during the day, Tsutenkaku is at its most beautiful at night!"

"Furthermore... depending on the weather conditions on the second day, the Tongtian Pavilion will also change its color."

"really?"

Ran Mouri asked, somewhat surprised.

“Of course it’s true.” Hattori Heiji said with one hand in his pocket, looking proud. “White means the sun will shine tomorrow, orange means the weather will be gloomy, blue means it will rain, and pink means it will snow…”

However, only Xiaolan would be interested in such a gimmick.

Soon, the elevator arrived at the second floor, and everyone transferred to another elevator to go up to the fourth floor.

This place is known as the Observatory of Light.

The decor resembled a disco, with huge disco balls hanging overhead.

"Wow! I didn't expect it to be so beautiful inside." Ran Mouri's eyes sparkled.

Sonoko pointed to a statue with a pointed head and a wide base, a pig-like nose, and a smiling face, and asked, "Hey, Hattori-kun, what's this?"

"Haha, this is Billy Kent, one of the Eight Lucky Gods. It is said that tickling the soles of his feet can bring good business, academic success, and a happy marriage."

Ran Mouri gently patted Lin Xiaofeng's back: "Shall we touch it?"

Lin Xiaofeng shook his head and replied with a smile, "I'm not interested. I'd rather touch Xiaolan's feet."

"Huh? What's so interesting about touching the soles of my feet?"

"Xiaolan's feet are very pretty, I like them very much."

"Stop talking."

Ran Mouri blushed deeply.

Yuanzi leaned over and gave Lin Xiaofeng a hard pat on the shoulder.

"Xiao Lan's face is so red, Xiao Feng, did you bully her?"

"No, I was just complimenting Xiaolan's beautiful feet."

"That's it."

"Yuan & Zi (is the skirt painted nice?)" Looking down at Lin, she saw that Xiao Lan seemed to be wearing a pair of white sandals, revealing her toes, which were painted with light pink nail polish. She was indeed very pretty.

"Oh, it really looks good. Xiaolan has learned how to do makeup too!"

"Sonoko's feet are beautiful too."

Lin Xiaofeng added with a smile.

Sonoko was wearing blue high-heeled sandals, and her toenails were neatly trimmed without any nail polish; she was still very pretty.

Sonoko blushed and snorted.

"Smooth talker, really good at saying nice things."

Lin Xiaofeng flirted with Xiaolan and Sonoko, while Hattori Heiji, a single man, watched from the side, completely bewildered.
