Uehara Katsumi, who never expected that Mouri Kogoro actually found out in his heart, smiled, sent Conan forward who was only as tall as his knees, and said: "My name is Uehara Katsumi, sorry Detective Mouri, last time
I was too surprised to see you, so I chatted with my friends about you. I was asked by the Megure Police Department to send the children from Edogawa back."
Do these two still know each other?
Conan, who had just moved into the home of his childhood sweetheart, secretly looked at the two of them, and felt a little gloomy in his heart.
"Dad, who is here, the client?"
The girl with an apron tied around her waist and long plastic gloves on her hands walked out of the kitchen. She looked in the direction of the movement and found Conan, who had returned late, standing next to a strange man.
"Ah, it's nothing. It's just that this kid probably lost his way outside and found the Megure Police Department and was sent back." Mouri Kogoro, who had no image to show for himself, glanced at the man next to him who didn't know why he was always there.
The little devil, who was a little displeased, explained.
"What? Conan! Really, how many times have I told you not to run around and cause trouble for adults!" The gentleness on the girl's face immediately disappeared without a trace after hearing this, and she scolded the stunned Conan with a straight face.
.
After expressing her indignation, the girl politely apologized to Katsumi Uehara: "I'm really sorry that Conan has caused you trouble."
Conan, who was criticized for no reason, couldn't express his pain. It was obviously because of those Italian robbers that--
"No, no, no, Mr. Mori may have misunderstood. In fact, Edogawa-san did a great favor to our police. Together with his classmates, he caught the Italian robbers on the news and helped the bank recover six
100 million yen maple leaf gold coin.”
Mouri Kogoro paused as he walked back, and the concept of "600 million yen" suddenly hovered in his mind——
"What did you say?!"
Five minutes later, after Katsumi Uehara briefly explained the whole story, Kogoro Mouri glanced sideways at Conan, who looked like a good boy.
"Lan, why are you so confused? Serve Officer Uehara tea."
"Huh? Ah, sorry, I'm sorry, Officer Uehara."
After hearing the whole incident, Mao Lilan, who was lost in thought for some reason, suddenly woke up, took a deep look at Conan, who had no self-awareness, and then prepared to make tea.
Something was wrong, she still felt something was wrong.
This child...
From the last time the president's daughter was kidnapped, she had a vague smell that something was wrong, and then last night when Yoko Okino's ex-boyfriend committed suicide, Conan was also very active at the scene of the incident, and several times it seemed that he was mistakenly shot.
The collision reminded him of his father, Mouri Kogoro.
And then to the Italian robbers that the police brought back tonight...
This child she brought back from Dr. A Li's house looked so similar to Xin when he was a child. He was too smart.
But...how is that possible?
"No, no, no, there's no need to trouble Mr. Maori. There's no need to have tea. I still have work to do, so I'll leave first."
Uehara Katsuki, who noticed Maori Ran's eyes, was filled with tears in his heart. At the same time, he quickly waved his hand to indicate that he was not needed. He left the Maori Detective Agency on the pretext that he still had official business to deal with.
"Is Mao Lilan actually so suspicious of Conan at this time?"
Before getting into the car, Uehara Katsuki raised his head and glanced at the signboard of the Mori Detective Agency, recalling with interest the look in Mori Ran's eyes at Conan.
This was a bit beyond his expectation.
But think about it, there is no Doraemon, there is no Osaka Black Chicken, and Kaito Kid, who can be both male and female, has not yet visited the rice flower market. Mao Lilan will suspect that his behavior is different from ordinary people and his thinking habits are at the same level as Kudo Shinichi
A similar Conan is not impossible.
The angry EVO turned on its headlights and slowly merged into the traffic at the intersection. The horns of the traffic jam kept blaring——
"Both! All!"
…………………………………………
"What's so noisy?"
Yoneka Town, inside the Medieval Museum of Art.
The two security guards in charge of the night patrol were conducting daily inspections when they suddenly heard the harsh noise coming from outside the silent corridor. They looked at each other and looked at each other in confusion.
"It's so late, is there anyone left in the art gallery?"
"Thief?"
The two security guards took out telescopic sticks from their waists and held them tightly in their hands. They turned their flashlights and illuminated the corridor where the harsh sounds came from. In the quiet atmosphere of the night, the crisp metal clashing sound was like the music of the Western European Middle Ages.
Singing in people's ears.
"...Who?! Stop pretending! Come out!"
The light provided by the flashlight alone was not enough to dispel the fear caused by the environment. The security guard, whose vocal cords were trembling a bit, kept his eyes wide open and remained vigilant. He swallowed unconsciously and then got a little closer to each other, slowly.
Slowly moving his steps towards the corridor——
Zheng!
The metal armor with the sword drawn suddenly looked particularly terrifying under the flashlight in the dark night. The sudden fear suddenly flooded the hearts of the two security guards like a tide!
"ah!!!!!"
Screams that were so frightening that they were almost hoarse resounded over the art museum under the moonlit night. Uehara Katsumi, who had to take a detour due to a traffic jam, was still opening the car window to blow the wind on the lonely road, when he heard this
After the extremely sudden scream under the moonlit night, Tong Kong couldn't help but shrink back and hit the brakes!
"Help! Help! Help!!!"
The two security guards who rushed out of the art museum like the wind were in shock. They stood on the side of the road with their hands on their knees. While they were panting and looking hideous, they also noticed the pink EVO parked on the side of the road. They shouted a warning out of breath.
: "Run! Run! Don't stay here!!!"
The frowning Katsuki Uehara hesitated for a few seconds, and finally sighed, took out his police officer ID card from his suit pocket and walked up.
"I am the police, what happened?"
After showing his ID, Katsuki Uehara turned his attention to the exhibition hall not far away shrouded in the hazy moonlight. Due to the distance and angle of view, he couldn't see the sign from his angle.
"Armor! The armor inside! The medieval armor in this art museum can move on its own and draw swords to kill people!"
The two security guards who saw the IDs looked at each other and immediately started talking about the supernatural incident that had just happened in the art museum——
"The sword was only a few centimeters away from our necks at that time. If we had run a little later, we might have been killed!"
"Does medieval armor move on its own?"
After hearing what had happened, Katsuki Uehara's face looked a little strange, and even his normally symmetrical eyebrows were twisted into high and low eyebrows in surprise.
Why is this so familiar to him?
That old man who could still wear medieval armor at such an old age, carry a strong man weighing at least two hundred pounds with one hand and nail him to the wall with a sword?
