Maori smiled.
"Um……"
Mallettail frowned, "You look very familiar to me..."
Huiyuan glanced at Maori and asked:
"You said that we are allowed to bring entourages, but is there really accommodation for so many of us on that uninhabited island?"
"Well," Hammertail took out a note, "there is only one old wooden house on the island, so my family will stay in the hotel here tonight. After we finish recording the show tomorrow, I will trouble you to pick us up."
"OK……"
Mauli nodded.
"Uncle," Conan pulled Mao Li and whispered, "What do you want to do?"
Maori shrugged, "Just curious, there's only one more person like me anyway."
"Hello..."
"Mr. Director,"
Hattori suddenly pulled Conan over and said, "Can I take this kid with me? He's my assistant."
"Of course you can, but I'm afraid you can only stay in one room," Hammertail didn't care about Conan, the little brat, "Okay, let's get on the boat..."
"By the way, this ship is really big!" Xiaolan exclaimed as she looked at the luxury cruise ship. "Could it be that there is a representative from each of Japan's 47 prefectures?"
"No," said Chuiwei awkwardly, "This time we only invited representatives from the four regions, east, west, south and north. Because this ship is very eye-catching, we chose to gather here..."
Mao Li paused as he was about to board the ship: "Not this one?"
"The boat we're on is right next to us..."
Not far from the cruise ship, a small boat was parked on the shore, with a fat man sitting on the bow, who seemed to be the owner of the boat.
“It feels… pretty shabby.”
Maori raised his eyebrows and looked out at the vast ocean.
He wasn't interested in any detective competitions. There was no benefit in winning, and the participants were all high school detectives. But this time he really had a bad feeling, after all, these were people favored by the god of death...
Several people boarded the boat, but before they set off, Kazuha shouted from the shore: "Heiji! You are the representative of the West, you must not lose--!"
"Don't worry!" Hattori straightened the brim of his hat and said confidently, "I will let everyone know that I, Hattori Heiji, am here!"
"You're really good at bragging..."
Maori didn't say anything particularly touching. He just looked at Xiaolan and Haibara and nodded slightly as a farewell.
"Let's go," Mallettail called, "Everyone go into the cabin first, the others are inside."
"it is good."
……
"Once we're on the island, please stay in your rooms before dinner..."
In the cabin of the cruise ship that left the dock, Hammertail took a notepad and began to explain the situation to everyone.
"Also, although the situation will only begin after dinner, everyone must not be careless. Once you step onto the island, the competition has already begun..."
"no problem."
Maori, Hattori and Conan sat on one side of the cabin and then looked at the two high school students sitting opposite them.
A girl with short brown hair, wearing sunglasses and headphones, looks very fashionable, with a bulging chest, probably a girl.
The other one was wearing a large hooded sweater and was concentrating on playing the game console...
"Mr. Maori?!"
Xiaoqiao Xianjian raised his head as if he realized something, looked at Mao Li in surprise and asked, "Why are you here?"
"Ok?"
Maori stared at Kobashi Kenjian in a daze, and it took him a while to remember that this man was the son of the Kobashi Group. He had helped to handle a commission from the other party's family in the past. It is worth mentioning that this son is also a high school detective.
"Mr. Xiaoqiao? What are you doing..."
Kobashi Kenjian smiled and said embarrassedly, "It seems that the organizer couldn't contact the high school detective Tokatsu Junya, so they contacted me, who was the only high school detective who could represent the north. I didn't expect to meet you, Mr. Maori. I really made the right decision to come here."
Mao Li frowned: "The organizer can't contact Tokatsu Junya..."
"Yeah," Kobashi Kenjian threw the game console aside and started chatting excitedly, "But aren't high school detective representatives from all over the country gathering this time? Mr. Mori..."
"Cough cough!"
Maori coughed heavily. "Since this is Detective Koshien, of course there must be a strong enemy that is far beyond the level of ordinary high school detectives. This is the convention of youth and hot-blooded works, isn't it?"
Conan twitched the corners of his mouth, smiling with his lips but not his eyes - who was it that thought the term "Detective Koshien" was stupid before?
"Oh."
Xiaoqiao Xianjian was stunned for a moment, then he glanced at Chuiwei beside him with sudden realization and nodded in agreement.
Hattori, like Conan, looked at Maori speechlessly. Noticing that Tsuchio looked unhappy, he couldn't help but ask, "Are you seasick?"
"Ah, no, it's a hangover," said Chuiwei, sweating profusely, "because after the filming was finished yesterday, I went to a very high-end restaurant with the staff and ended up drinking too much..."
Xiaobashi Xianjian asked: "Have we passed the top of the mountain?"
"Mountain, top of the mountain?" Chuiwei laughed blankly, "I'm not talking about the store on the mountain, I mean the kind with very high prices..."
The girl wearing headphones leaned against the TV station's luggage bag and said, "Hey, uncle, can you make this guy smile? It's too crowded..."
"Laugh?" Chuiwei didn't know what was going on, and said while wiping the sweat off his face, "The mountaintop was just a joke, haha."
Hattori looked at Kobashi Kenmi and the girl with headphones with interest, and said softly to Maori: "Hey, uncle, these two people look quite capable... Do you know the one who plays the video game?"
"We know each other, but we're not particularly familiar with each other."
Maori said thoughtfully.
Just now, the other two people were using the jargon of the director's profession to test the hammer tail, and it turned out that this person was an outsider right away.
interesting……
"Detective Koshien?" The lobby manager of the Pier Hotel looked confused when he was found by Xiaolan and his group.
"We don't have any reservations for Nichimai TV here?"
"No?"
Xiaolan and the other two were shocked.
"Hey, hey! Check it out carefully, it should include dinner and breakfast!!"
He Ye asked.
"But there really isn't..."
The manager wiped his sweat with a handkerchief and said, "I have checked it twice."
Xiaolan and the other two immediately felt that something was wrong.
"What on earth is going on with the show that Dad and the others are participating in?"
Huibara followed behind, looking outside the hotel with a slightly nervous gaze. The cruise ship had long disappeared, vanishing in the vast ocean, and no one knew which uninhabited island it had gone to.
……
In the evening, several Maori people stepped onto the island, and a square-faced old man wearing square-framed glasses greeted them at the dock.
"I'm Kaguya Renzo, the person in charge of taking care of everyone's daily life this time..." The old man subconsciously bowed and introduced himself, but when he noticed Maori at the back, his face suddenly froze.
Mao Li chuckled and took the initiative to greet him, "Hey, we meet again, Butler Jia Gu..."
"Yes, yes," Kaguya Renzo hesitated and turned to lead the way, "Everyone please follow me to the hotel... However, a representative of Eastern High School detectives has already arrived this morning and is now resting in the hotel."
"Already here?"
Maori looked at the confused Conan in surprise.
"real or fake……"
"The director asked him to come here," Kotani Renzo responded, "I think his name is..."
"Well," Tsuchio laughed dryly, "I'm sorry, I almost forgot. Since I couldn't contact Kudo-san, I found another boy to replace him..."
"White Horse Detective?"
In the log cabin hotel, Maori stared at the handsome young man sitting in the living room. He never expected that Hakuba Tan would be called. It is true that this young man is very famous in other countries, but is he suitable to be the representative of the East?
"strangeness,"
Mao Li asked in confusion, "I heard from Director Bai Ma that you have been studying in the UK, haven't you?"
"There's nothing I can do, Mr. Maori,"
Hakuba Tan still had some respect for Maori. He stood up from the sofa and said, "My mother-in-law received a call from the director, saying that he wanted me to replace Kudo Shinichi, who he couldn't contact... This sentence made my mother-in-law very upset. In the end, she begged me to come back, saying that she must let everyone know that there is a Hakuba Tan in the East. I had no choice but to rush back from the UK..."
Hakuba looked at the others and said with a smile: "But then again, I don't think I'm the right person to represent the East..."
"Need I say more? Kudo is the only one who can represent the East!" Hattori looked at Hakuba unhappily, and then asked Maori, "Hey, uncle, where did this guy jump out from? Do you know him?"
"Don't you know him? He's a second-generation official like you, the son of the White Horse Superintendent."
As Maori said this, he was having a headache about sleeping.
Since Hakuba Tan has filled Conan's position as Kudo Shinichi, it would be a mistake for him to follow him. Where should he sleep?
I definitely won't share a room with Xiaoqiao Xianjian, and of course I can't let Baiba Tan either, but I can consider the girl with headphones...
"Hey," the girl with headphones looked at Maori, "Isn't this the famous detective Maori Kogoro?"
Hakuba Tan said with a smile: "Yes, the famous detective Maori Kogoro is completely different from us high school detectives who are only slightly famous."
"Is that the famous Akechi Kogoro from the Heisei era?"
The girl with headphones looked surprised.
"But isn't this the Detective Koshien by a high school detective?"
"Well,"
Mao Li shrugged and said with a cheeky smile, "Actually, I just came here out of curiosity..."
"alright,"
Hammertail wiped the sweat off his forehead and said, "Since everyone knows Detective Maori, then it's easy to say. He will be the guest of honor this time... Now, could you please introduce yourselves?"
"sure……"
Xiaoqiao Xianjian looked around and asked in surprise: "But is it okay like this? There are no cameras filming, and even other TV station staff can't be seen..."
Chuiwei laughed dryly and explained, "Actually, the other staff and guests will come tomorrow. I called everyone here now so that you can get familiar with it first... I think I will do the same thing again in front of the camera tomorrow..."
"is it?"
The girl didn't lie, she took off her headphones and said with a smile: "Then let's start with me. My name is Nanatsuki Koshimizu, I'm a third-year high school detective, born in Fukuoka. Although I'm representing the high school detective team this time, I'm still a novice, and I've only solved about 100 cases. Please go easy on me."
Maori looked at the tomboyish girl again.
Nanatsuki Koshimizu, he had seen some reports about this girl in the newspapers...
"My name is Kenmi Kobashi," Kobashi said lively, "Although I was chosen as the representative of the northern part, I'm actually not as famous as Junya Tokatsu, who the production team couldn't contact. I just came back from abroad a month ago, and I've only handled about a hundred cases."
Hattori smiled and said, "My name is Hattori Heiji. I'm a well-known detective in Kansai. The number of cases I've solved... Oh, probably more than 1000. I can't even count them all!"
"here we go again……"
Maori was too tired to complain. Before coming here, Hattori had boasted about the number of cases he had solved, but this kid was not honest at all. His way of calculating included helping his elementary school classmates find erasers and pencils.
"So you are Hattori Heiji," Hakuba looked at Hattori with interest, "I often heard about you from my father. I heard that you are a detective with a very keen sense no matter what situation you face..."
Hattori raised his thick eyebrows. He inexplicably disliked this Hakuba detective who had a similar family background. "What about you? How many cases have you solved?"
"Well," Bai Ma Tan thought, "I think there should be about 500 pieces..."
"What? It's only half of mine!"
