Conan's Unscientific Detective

Fujino put away the business card, glanced at Shinmei Kaori who was sitting opposite him, and asked in confusion: "Are you the daughter of the best-selling novelist Shinmei Rentaro?"

Shinname Kaori nodded and said, "That is my father."

"That's it..."

Fujino narrowed his eyes when he heard that.

If he remembered correctly, this should be the new name Rentaro in the missing mystery novelist case.

Niina Rentaro is a famous mystery novelist, and his representative work is Detective Samonji.

Samonji is a virtual detective who holds a wooden sword, wears all black, and likes to show off by taking out the wooden sword and saying wise sayings when he has nothing to do.

By the way, the role he played at the ski resort some time ago was Detective Sawamonji.

In fact, he doesn't need to act. His usual classic trench coat and suit look already make him look like Samonji.

He also has the nickname Detective Samonji.

But he didn't care too much.

After all, he has so many nicknames that he himself can hardly remember them all.

Such as the pitch-black detective, Poirot of the Heisei era, Detective Samonji... and so on.

"It turns out she is Mr. Niname's daughter."

After confirming the other party's identity, Fujino poured a cup of black tea and got down to business: "I wonder what Miss Xinming wants to ask me for."

Shinna Kaori lowered her head and thought for a moment, then said, "Actually, my father is missing."

"Mr. Xinming is missing?"

Fujino pushed the black tea towards Shinname Kohara and asked calmly.

"Yes."

Shinname Kaori picked up the tea, took a sip and continued, "Not only my father, but my mother also disappeared. She only left a note saying 'I'll be out for a while' and left."

"When did they disappear?"

Fujino continued to ask.

After thinking for a moment, Shinna Kaori replied, "She disappeared about two months ago, on August 12, a week before Detective Samonji was published in Bungeishuji."

"August 12th?"

Fujino took out his cell phone and glanced at the time today.

It was October 20th, Saturday.

Well, the timeline of the scientific world is still as weird as ever.

Putting away the phone, Fujino continued to ask Shinname Kaori: "How did you find out they were missing? Normally, if they were missing for two months without any contact, even if you didn't call the police, people around you should have called the police, right?"

Although he knew some of the plot, he still had to ask for the details.

After all, if there is any deviation from the memory, it would be embarrassing.

"That's normally the case."

Shinna Kaori nodded in agreement and explained, "I also tried to call the police, but since there were no threatening calls and the editorial office received manuscripts normally every week, they advised me not to worry at all."

"They haven't contacted me for two months. I asked everyone I know, but no one knows where they are... I'm really worried about them."

As she spoke, tears welled up in Shinname Kaori's narrowed eyes. "To be honest, I've been to other detective agencies, but their answers were all pretty much the same. I only found Detective Fujino after asking around through my acquaintances..."

As she spoke, Shinname Kaori raised her head and cast her tearful eyes towards Fujino, her eyes full of expectation: "The only one who can help me now is Detective Fujino."

"Under normal circumstances, this matter is indeed not worth entrusting..."

"how so."

After receiving the same answer, Shinna Kaori lowered her head, revealing a look of loss.

"But I'm different from those unprofessional detectives."

After keeping the secret, Fujino continued, "As long as it is a client's request, I will accept it. Even if the person has not been kidnapped, I will still help you find him."

"Thank you so much!"

After receiving the answer that she accepted the commission, Niina Kaori bowed and expressed her gratitude.

"As for the commission...Since the nature of this case is still unknown, the commission cannot be confirmed yet."

As he spoke, Fujino asked Shinna Kaori, "After this commission is completed, there shouldn't be any problem in determining the commission based on the nature of the case, right?"

"no problem!"

Shinna Kaori agreed immediately.

For her, it was already difficult to find a detective to help with the investigation. The commission...

If the payment is made according to the specific circumstances of the case, it is actually very reasonable in her opinion.

Sure enough, it was a good decision to come here based on the recommendation from an acquaintance.

After accepting the commission, Fujino planned to go to the editorial office with Niina Kahori.

He remembered that the editorial agency was the key to breaking through this case.

"By the way, Miss Xinming, can you wait for a moment?"

Fujino stood up from the sofa and explained, "I have to go upstairs to change my clothes and tell my sister..."

"no problem."

Shinna Kaori nodded, and then Fujino returned to the fourth floor.

Bedrooms on the fourth floor.

As soon as Fujino opened the door, he saw Miyano Akemi sitting by the bed.

She held a bowl of porridge in her left hand, scooped it up with a spoon in her right hand, blew on it, and fed it to Huiyuan Ai who was leaning on the bed. Huiyuan Ai's face flushed and she opened her mouth silently...

"Sister Mingmei, is she awake yet?"

Fujino walked into the bedroom.

"Yeah, I just woke up."

Miyano Akemi put the porridge on the bedside table. "She probably hasn't eaten for a day, so I heated up some porridge."

"That's it..."

Fujino took out a black suit from the closet.

"You're going out so late."

Miyano Akemi looked at Fujino who took out a black suit and asked curiously, "Do you have any commission?"

During this period of time, it seems that Fujino generally doesn't care about his appearance when he goes out.

He only deliberately puts on a suit when conducting some commissioned investigations.

"Yes, I did receive a commission just now."

Fujino took off his sportswear, revealing his white half-sleeves, and changed into a black suit. "The client is the daughter of a popular novelist, and she asked me to find her missing father."

Before leaving, Fujino did not forget to say, "By the way, Mingmei, you can go to the convenience store to buy dinner. You don't have to wait for me."

Chapter 144 Life is not easy, Aijiang sighs

"Can you take me with you?"

At this time, Huihara Ai on the bed suddenly said.

She looked like a little girl.

"what?"

Fujino exclaimed in surprise.

Then he looked at Huibara Ai and was stunned.

"I also want to see how the detective solves the case!"

Continue to act like a little girl.

Fujino: “…………”

Fujino looked at Haibara Ai's expectant expression and his brows twitched suddenly.

What the hell is she doing?

His mind was racing.

"is it not OK?"

At this time, Fujino didn't respond for a long time.

Haibara Ai continued to look like a little girl.

Also added a pair of expectant eyes.

"........."

My scalp tingled when being stared at by the little girl.

Fujino took a deep breath, paused, and then spoke: "Of course you can. You just woke up, so you should be very weak, right?"

"No problem at all!"

Huihara Ai stood up from the bed.

"If that's the case... then you can come along... it's nothing anyway..."

Although Fujino had seen the collection of Haibara Ai's disguised and coquettish behavior.

But the actual experience...

He ignored his sister but was greatly shocked.

If Fujino didn't know that she was an 18-year-old otaku who took medicine to become smaller, he would really think that the little girl in front of him was a little loli who was less than ten years old.

I can only say that the Miyano family are all talented actors.

With such acting skills, it would be a shame not to go to the Oscars to get recognition.

After getting Fujino's reply, Haibara Ai ran to the bathroom to change clothes.

In the toilet.

Huiyuan Ai looked at her slightly cold face in the mirror and couldn't help but sigh: "This kind of performance is really tiring..."

Her actions just now were all a strategy to stay in the Fujino family.

To be honest, she didn't quite understand why she wanted to do this and why she wanted to stay here.

Maybe it was because of Fujino, or maybe it was because of Fujino Akemi...

Well, the main reason is still Fujino Akemi.

Fujino Akemi looks so much like her sister.

That kind of meticulous care made her recall the past more than once.

She cherishes this feeling very much. Even though it is just a false illusion, she still wants this illusion to last forever.

If you want to stay here, you obviously can't avoid Fujino.

Although Fujino is a good person, he is very concerned about his own interests...

If she could demonstrate some value, the probability of her staying would definitely increase greatly.

Maybe if she followed, she could help.

Life is not easy, Aijiang sighed.

…………

Soon, Fujino brought Miyano Akemi, Haibara Ai, Niina Kaori and others and drove to the publishing and editing company of Detective Samonji.

As for Miyano Akemi, she will follow.
