The Great Villain from Conan

"What's so happy about? I can hear your laughter before I even enter the door."

Just when Mao Lilan was about to get angry, a hearty voice suddenly came from outside the door, followed by two figures walking in.

The figure walking in front was Baili Jing, who was wearing casual clothes, and the figure following behind him was Arnold, who was wearing black clothes.

!!!

The moment Conan saw Arnold, his pupils suddenly shrank, and he almost thought that it was someone from the Black Organization who came to his door.

After all, Arnold not only looks expressionless, but also exudes an aura that keeps strangers away, like a ruthless killing machine, like a combination of gin and vodka.

However, the plastic bag in Arnold's hand and the tempting aroma wafting from it made him more popular.

"Student Baili, who is this?"

Mao Lilan's attention was also attracted by Arnold. She felt an extremely dangerous aura from Arnold. The man in black wearing sunglasses in front of her was definitely a very difficult character.

"His name is Arnold, and he's my newly hired driver and bodyguard."

Baili Jing was halfway through his words when he took the plastic bag from Arnold's hand and said, "Arnold and I went to have breakfast just now and accidentally ordered some extra food, so I packed it up and brought it back for you guys."

"That's so embarrassing!"

Kogoro Maori said sorry while smiling as he took the plastic bag handed to him by Baili Jing.

"Gyoza, crab buns, tempura, and ramen, you guys have a pretty hearty breakfast!"

Maori Kogoro opened the lunch boxes containing food one by one and placed them on the table. He waved to Maori Ran and Conan and said, "Xiao Ran, come and eat quickly. It won't taste good if it gets cold."

"Dad~"

Looking at Kogoro Mouri who had already started eating, Ran Mouri shook her head helplessly, thanked Bailijing, and then took Conan to eat breakfast.

"By the way! Xiaolan, what were you talking about just now? I seemed to hear something about an art gallery?" Baili Jing asked curiously.

Chapter 19: Brain supplement is the most deadly

"It's in the nearby art gallery. There's a rumor that armor can walk at night?"

Hearing what Mao Lilan said, Bai Lijing showed an interested look: "A new urban legend? It sounds interesting."

"You think it's interesting, too! Then..."

Mao Lilan was talking halfway when she suddenly thought of something and couldn't help but suggest: "Mr. Baili, since you also think it's interesting, why don't we go and take a look together?"

Mao Lilan is a typical example of someone who is addicted to being a loser.

In fact, Ran Mouri herself is very afraid of monsters and demons, but she is also very curious about these things.

Originally, Mao Lilan was planning to take Conan and the others with her, but now that Bailijing had come to her door, there was naturally no reason for her to let it go.

"Okay! Let's go and take a look together!"

Bailijing smiled and nodded, then asked Maori Kogoro and the others, "Uncle Maori, Conan, do you want to go?"

Maori Kogoro waved his hand and said, "I won't go. You young people can go and have fun by yourselves!"

"Then we'll leave first."

Seeing this, Baili Jing didn't say anything more and left with Mao Lilan and Arnold.

"Hahaha……"

After Baili Jing and the others left, Kogoro Maori suddenly couldn't help laughing.

Looking at Maori Kogoro's silly smile, Conan couldn't help but ask curiously: "Uncle, what are you laughing at?"

"You don't understand! If I continue like this, I'll soon have a billionaire son-in-law, hahahaha..."

"Billionaire's son-in-law?"

When Conan heard this, the image of Bailijing instantly appeared in his mind, and he hurriedly asked Maori Kogoro: "Uncle, what do you mean by this?"

"A little brat is a little brat. Can't you see that Bailijing has always been secretly in love with Xiaolan?"

"what?!"

Conan's eyes suddenly widened, his face full of disbelief.

"Although that guy pretended to have no interest in Xiaolan, he couldn't hide it from the eyes of someone like me who has been through this."

Maori Kogoro said confidently: "If that boy didn't have a crush on Xiaolan, do you think he would have to change his ways every day and send us all kinds of delicious food?"

Before Conan came to the Mouri Detective Agency, Mouri Kogoro was just a lousy third-rate detective who had not received any decent commissions in half a year.

Ever since Baili Jing became neighbors with Maori Kogoro and his friends, he would often send various delicacies and fruits to Maori Detective Agency under the excuse that he couldn't finish the food or bought too much.

And Kogoro Mouri didn't know that the real purpose of the Bailijing was to establish a good relationship with them so that he could increase his villain value in the future.

Therefore, in the eyes of Kogoro Mouri, everything that Baili Jing did was definitely to get close to Ran Mouri.

Compared to the reasoning kid Kudo Shinichi, Maori Kogoro obviously appreciates his future son-in-law Baili Jing more.

It would be best for Baili Jing to take advantage of the time when Kudo Shinichi is away to win over Mori Ran in one fell swoop. This way, Mori Kogoro will have a billionaire as a son-in-law. Then it should not be too much to ask him to buy him a luxury car, right?

"Little brat, you still..."

Before Kogoro Mouri could finish his words, he realized that Conan had disappeared.

At the same time, in a tall black Hummer, Mao Lilan asked with a puzzled look on her face: "Conan, didn't you say you didn't want to go to the art museum?"

Conan, who was sitting between Bailijing and Maolilan, said with an expectant expression: "Sister Xiaolan, don't you think that medieval armor that can walk on its own sounds cool?"

"Right! You think it's cool too!"

What Mao Lilan didn't know was that Conan suddenly followed her because she was worried that she was being cuckolded.

Although Conan pretended to be very convincing on the surface, the system prompt sound that rang in Baili Jing's ears from time to time exposed his true thoughts.

Considering that Conan insisted on sitting between him and Mao Li Ran, and the wary look he gave him, Baili Jing guessed that he must have regarded him as a love rival.

He is worthy of being the famous jealous king of East Asia!

So on the way to the art museum, Baili Jing deliberately acted like he was concerned about Mao Li Ran, which made Conan feel even more nervous.

Conan secretly roared in his heart: "You are such a poisonous tongue mirror, I treat you as a friend, but you actually want to steal my girl, it's really despicable!"

After more than half an hour of intrigue, the black Hummer driven by Arnold finally arrived at the Medieval Art Museum.

"Wow, so many beautiful paintings!"

After entering the art gallery, Mao Lilan's attention was instantly attracted by the paintings hanging on the wall, and her pretty face was full of excitement.

"Look at this painting, it's really beautiful. The colors used are amazing!"

"Do you like this painting too? I like this painting too!"

An old voice suddenly came from behind Baili Jing and the others, followed by an old man with kind eyes and gray hair and beard, who slowly walked in front of them.

Looking at the painting hanging in front of Mao Lilan, the gray-haired old man smiled kindly and said, "No! It should be the works here. I like them all! They are like my children. They are so cute."

???

Listening to the strange words of the gray-haired old man, Mao Lilan blinked in confusion and couldn't help asking: "Um... may I ask who you are?"

The gray-haired old man said in a gentle tone: "I am the curator here, my name is Ochiai, and I welcome you to visit the art museum."

"So you are the curator!"

"Okay, I won't bother you anymore. Please enjoy this place slowly..."

"It's still the same as usual, there are very few people!"

Director Ochiai had just said half of his words when an impatient voice suddenly sounded, and a middle-aged man in an off-white suit walked over with a man wearing glasses.

After seeing the impatient middle-aged man, Director Ochiai's eyes changed slightly, and he greeted calmly, "Boss Manaka."

"In ten days or so, this place will be closed. During this time, I would like to trouble you to take good care of it."

Boss Manaka was halfway through his words when he suddenly smiled sinisterly and said, "Please take good care of these rusty pieces of copper and iron!"

"you……"

Upon hearing this, Director Ochiai clenched his fists involuntarily.

"Mr. Designer, show me the design. I want to transform this place into the best hotel!"

Boss Manaka ignored Director Ochiai's reaction and went straight to discuss the renovation of the art museum with the man with glasses.

Mao Lilan couldn't help but ask, "Is this art museum going to disappear?"

Thanks to the book friend 20220624213847541 for the 100 starting coins, and thanks to other book friends for their support. The new book is about to start, please vote, collect, invest, and support me in every way~

Chapter 20 The Caught Anesthetic Needle

"Yes! The previous boss had to sell the art gallery to Mr. Manaka because his company went bankrupt."

Upon hearing this, Director Ochiai sighed and said, "The reason why the previous owner agreed to sell the art museum to Mr. Manaka at a low price was because he promised to continue to run the art museum. However, he did not expect that he would convert the art museum into a hotel shortly after taking over the art museum."

Baili Jing suddenly asked, "Mr. Director, what is Mr. Zhenzhong's full name? What companies and businesses does he own?"

???

Although Director Ochiai felt a little confused, he still replied subconsciously: "His full name is Manaka Jiro, and he is the president of the Manaka Group."

"Thank you, I understand."

Baili Jing first thanked Director Ochiai, then took out the mobile phone he carried with him and quickly made a few calls.

After Baili Jing finished the call, Mao Lilan asked curiously, "Bai Li, what are you doing?"

"Nothing! I just saw that the Boss Manaka had a black spot on his forehead. There might be a bloody disaster today, so I asked people to prepare in advance to see if we can bite off a piece of meat from the Manaka Group."

According to the Law of the Dead in the anime "Detective Conan", any supporting character who behaves too arrogantly in front of Conan will basically become the victim of the case.

Judging from Boss Manaka's performance just now, Baili Jing was almost certain that he would not live long.

As long as boss Shinaka dies, the stock price of Shinaka Group will inevitably plummet, and Baili Jing can take the opportunity to buy part of the shares of Shinaka Group at a low price.

The other shareholders of the Shinaka Group will definitely find a way to raise the stock price back up. By then, Bailijing can earn at least hundreds of millions of yen by simply selling those stocks.

"Black forehead? Bloody disaster?"

When Mao Lilan and Conan heard this, the image of Monk Fahai unconsciously appeared in their minds.

If it weren't for the fact that Baili Jing's appearance and voice were completely different from those of Monk Fahai, Conan and the others would have thought they had met that monk again.

"Let's go! Let's go see the medieval armor that is said to be able to walk on its own!"

Baili Jing did not give Mao Lilan and the others a chance to investigate further, and directly took Arnold to the depths of the art museum.

"Huh? Why is this place blocked?"

Seeing the "No Entry" sign in the passage ahead, Mao Lilan frowned slightly, flipped through the tourist guide map in her hand, and muttered to herself: "Strange, the back of this passage should be the Hell Exhibition Hall?"

The Medieval Art Museum has several types of exhibition halls. The medieval armor that is said to be able to walk on its own is located in the Hell Exhibition Hall.

Bailijing suggested: "Since this place is blocked, let's go visit other exhibition halls!"

"Okay~"

Mao Lilan nodded somewhat disappointedly, and followed Baili Jing and the others to other exhibition halls.

When Mao Lilan saw the beautiful works of art in other exhibition halls, the slight disappointment in her heart instantly dissipated, and she began to appreciate those works of art with great interest.

"Look, the no-entry sign is gone!"

Just when Baili Jing and his friends finished visiting the exhibition hall of the art museum and were about to leave, Mao Lilan was suddenly surprised to find that the signboard leading to the Hell Exhibition Hall had disappeared.

"Then let's go in and take a look!"

After Baili Jing finished speaking, he took Arnold and walked into the dark passage first.

"This room is so dark~"

Following behind Baili Jing and the others, Mao Lilan felt her scalp tingling when looking at the exhibits such as demon statues and ghost paintings around her. She hugged Conan, who was acting as a shield.

"Because this is a hell-style exhibition hall!"

Baili Jing replied nonchalantly, then his ears moved slightly, his brows knitted slightly, and he asked, "Did you hear any sound?"

"Tick tock! Tick tock! Tick tock..."

As everyone stopped talking, a faint sound of dripping water gradually became clearer in the dim and silent exhibition hall.
