Because Conan was sitting between Xiaolan and Kazuha, he naturally felt that the female high school student in front of him who was about the same age as Xiaolan was talking about him.
After all, after someone called out his name at such a close distance, there were still Uncle Maori and Xiaolan behind him who absolutely couldn't let them know their true identity.
His face turned pale and he almost jumped up on the spot.
"Heiji often mentions you."
When Conan heard this, he thought that Heiji had revealed his secret to the woman in front of him, and his heart went cold.
【Hey, wait!】
He couldn't wait to rush forward and block this woman's mouth!
"He Hattori?" Xiaolan repeated blankly.
Just when Conan was panicking, Kazuye's next words seemed to lift him from hell to heaven.
"Stop pretending, I know everything... You are the woman named [Kudo] who abducted Heiji in Tokyo, right?"
She slammed her right hand on the table, leaned forward, and stared at Xiaolan with deep hostility.
"Huh?" Three pairs of puzzled eyes looked at Yuan Shan and Ye.
"Pfft...hahahaha!" Yuan Huaiyu was the first to laugh out loud.
"Did you make a mistake?" Xiaolan's mouth twitched.
"I just want to tell you one thing." Toyama Kazuha held his right fist tightly and held it in front of him, his face angry and serious, "Heiji and I have been connected by an 'iron chain' since before.
Friends, if anyone wants to attack Heiji, they must get through me first!"
"What's wrong, Heye? What are you doing here?"
Hattori Heiji, who had gone out to make a phone call, finally returned to the store and saw his childhood sweetheart at a glance.
Yuan Huaiyu smiled and joked: "What else can you do? I'm jealous and come here to declare sovereignty... Uh-huh!"
Halfway through his words, Toyama and Ye suddenly jumped up after being exposed. With their excellent Aikido skills, they came to Yuan Huaiyu in an instant and pressed the strange man's mouth firmly.
After some explanation, Hattori Heiji laughed mercilessly.
"Hahahahaha...are you going to laugh me to death? The [Kudo] I'm talking about is a man!"
"Male! Yeah!"
Realizing that he had made a huge mistake, Toyama and Ye turned red in the face, turned into beet-eyed and lowered their heads, with steam rising faintly from the top of their heads.
"And she is a Kudo woman."
Hattori Heiji pointed at Mourilan and said.
"Ah?" "Uh?"
Both parties' heartbeats suddenly accelerated and their faces turned red.
"No, that's not the case!" Under Moori Kogoro's suspicious eyes, Xiaolan blushed and tried to deny it.
"Really? I remember the last time I met you two on the plane, Kudo often secretly looked at you, Miss Xiaolan." Yuan Huaiyu sent an insidious assist.
The number of Doudouyan Steam Girls suddenly doubled.
Conan also stared at the guy who revealed his secret with shame and anger, wishing he could find a crack in the ground to crawl in.
After a long time, the awkward atmosphere finally dissipated. Xiaolan suddenly remembered the "iron chain" she had mentioned to Ye before. Her gossip soul burned brightly and she asked smoothly:
"By the way, can you tell me the story about your iron chain?"
Heiji smiled awkwardly and told the story of how when they were young, the two of them were handcuffed together by old handcuffs that Heiji's father kept in the attic. Because they couldn't be opened, they had to eat, sleep, and even bathe and go to the toilet together.
"As a souvenir, I even put a fragment of the handcuffs into an amulet!" He and Ye Liang took out the amulet they carried with them.
Heiji looked at her with disgust: "How disgusting! Just throw it away!"
Xiaolan watched the two people bickering and suddenly felt a sense of déjà vu in her heart.
"Excuse me...are you two dating?" she asked tentatively.
"ah?"
The two of them screamed in unison.
Kazuha quickly denied: "That's not true! Heiji and I are just simple childhood sweethearts! I often take care of him, just like his sister!"
"Explaining so much...do you feel guilty?" Yuan Huaiyu hit the nail on the head.
"I feel guilty." Mouri Kogoro, the visitor, nodded to confirm.
The conversation between the two was so low that the two childhood sweethearts in front of them didn't hear it at all.
"Her father is the criminal director of the Osaka Police Station and is a good friend of my father, so we have known each other since we were children."
Hattori Heiji introduced Toyama Kazuha to his friends.
"By the way! Why are you here?" Hattori finally remembered this question.
Naturally, Toyama Kazuha couldn't say that he was afraid that his sweetheart would be abducted by a woman in Tokyo, so he hurried over to see who [Kudo] was.
She casually talked about her sister caring about her brother and other reasons to explain it away, the blush on her face still lingering.
"Where did you start following us?"
"Tongtenkaku."
Xiaolan realized that the person she saw before should be Toyama Kazuya.
…
"Wow, I feel so full!"
“So delicious!”
After finishing the okonomiyaki, the group walked out of the restaurant with satisfaction and returned to the police car.
"Actually, you should eat with us." Before getting in the car, Mouri Kogoro said to Sakata Yusuke a little embarrassedly.
"No, I'm in charge of reception." Sakata Yusuke respectfully opened the car door for Mouri Kogoro.
What he meant was that it was not appropriate to be a host or to dine with guests.
Heye got into the car naturally, but suddenly discovered another problem.
"Wait a minute, can we... not be able to sit down?"
"It seems so." Yuan Huaiyu, who was walking at the end, was about to get on the bus when he found that there was no room for anyone in the bus.
But he wasn't bothered by it.
Because he knew that a large number of police cars would arrive here after a while, and then there would be no problem of being unable to sit down.
"Mr. Yuan, why don't you get in the car first, and I'll find another taxi to follow you..."
When Kazuha saw that he had occupied the seat of the detective who was said to be acquainted with Heiji, he felt a little embarrassed and raised his legs to get out of the car.
But when she raised her head and looked outside the car, she found that the pedestrians on the roadside were acting strangely.
They all looked up to the sky, pointing with some surprise.
While pointing, he showed a panicked and frightened expression, and quickly ran away from the police car.
Others in the car also noticed something strange outside the car, but they had no idea why.
But the next second, they knew.
"Boom!!!"
There was a loud noise, and a huge object hit the front cover of the police car.
The people in the car looked out and had extremely horrified expressions.
What was smashed into the police car turned out to be a corpse!
Outside the car, Yuan Huaiyu looked at the body that fell from a high altitude without any surprise, and sighed meaningfully.
