The elevator soon reached the 24th floor. Shiraijiu walked out with Okino Yoko, walked directly to the door of his room, took out the key from his pocket and opened the door.
Okino Yoko, whose mentality changed from sending Shiraiku back to the Mori Detective Agency to sending Shiraiku home, looked behind Shiraiku, but her keychain attracted her attention.
Shiraiku's keychain hangs a tag with a Q version of Shiraiku sticking out his tongue. Because this is an expression that Shiraiku cannot usually make, the Shiraiku on the tag looks particularly cute.
"Ah~ so cute~" Okino Yoko bent down and looked at the key tag, "Did you draw and customize this yourself?"
Bai Jingjiu answered as he opened the door: "I did this myself."
In fact, it is impossible for normal people to make themselves into Q-version emoticons and hang them on their keys - unless they have strong self-confidence and self-awareness. But Shiraijiu is not a normal person, and the liquor in her core is simply not
Think of Shiraiku herself as her own figure. I would like to ask, Shiraiku is so cute, is there anything wrong with making a Q-version fan figurine of her?
She also made a Q-version grinning key pendant of college student Baijiu—he will be called Shirai Kosei from now on—which is also very cute.
"Hey - it's really awesome, Xiaojiu~ Can you make one for me too?"
During the conversation, the door was still opened by the liquor, but what came into view was a clean and tidy room, and a bloody corpse on the ground.
Liquor:……
Why did this scene give her a very strong sense of déjà vu?
"Ah -" Okino Yoko screamed, but quickly covered her mouth. She is a big star, and the news that she was exposed to two cases in a short period of time had a really bad impact on her.
"What, what should I do... call the police?... No, I, I'll contact Mr. Mori!... Telephone, phone...!" In a panic, Okino Yoko reluctantly thought of a way, turned around and left, wanting to go find him.
Telephone.
Well, there were indeed no mobile phones in Japan at this time, so it was very inconvenient to contact people.
Okino Yoko walked a few steps and suddenly remembered that there was a child named Shiraijiu, so she turned around and ran over to hug Shiraijiu, "Don't be afraid, it's okay, don't look at it. Let's call Uncle Maori first, okay?
good?"
Shiraijiu, who had absorbed the dead energy from the corpse unconsciously, didn't care whether he wanted to leave or not, so he was in a good mood and said "Yes."
She finally understood that although Conan had the halo of being the protagonist, the world of Kexue itself was also a world where people could easily die. Even if she didn't follow Kudo Shinichi, she would still have a chance of encountering a murder.
Of course, following Conan is the easiest way to get in touch with the murder case. Baijiu still remembers that she just followed Shinichi and Xiaolan on their date, and easily collected her first grievance.
And as a child, even if you don’t scream when you see a corpse, you still want to stay alone at the scene of the crime? Isn’t this just raising suspicion?
Shiraiku followed Okino Yoko downstairs obediently - not forgetting to close the door before leaving.
Okino Yoko considered that it would be too troublesome to look for a phone outside, and it was inconvenient to bring a child with her. Her home was also upstairs, very close, and safe. So she simply took Shiraijiu to her home and closed the door.
Then I quickly made a phone call.
The first person she contacted was Mouri Kogoro, but at this time, Moori Kogoro was in the lobby outside, receiving news from Hirota Kenzo, and the person who answered the phone was Xiaolan.
"Hello, Mori Detective Agency~"
"Eh? Miss Yoko?"
"I'm sorry, dad is not here..."
"Eh?! Corpse?!"
"So how is Xiaojiu doing now? Is she okay?"
"Yes! Yes! Thank you, Miss Yoko!"
"Please wait a moment, I'll be right over!"
Xiaolan hung up the phone, grabbed her coat, put it on and ran out in a hurry.
Conan on the side quickly came over and asked nervously, "Sister Xiaolan, did something happen to Shirai?"
He couldn't help but be nervous, knowing that Shirai was now at Shirai's house where the man in black had been!
"Well." Faced with Conan's question, Xiaolan knew she shouldn't reveal too much, but she still couldn't control her words, "When Xiaojiu went home today, she found a corpse lying in her house."
"What?!" Conan was shocked, and instantly thought of the man in black. Could it be that the man in black killed the intruders while searching the Shirai family?
Conan would definitely get involved in matters related to the men in black. So he got into the car while Mao Lilan got in the car.
Mao Lilan was used to this, and she was not at ease leaving Conan alone at home.
The two of them took a taxi, urging the driver all the way, and arrived in front of the familiar apartment building. Once again, the place was cordoned off and crowded with people.
"What happened here again?"
"I heard it was another murder case..."
"Really, isn't this apartment unlucky?"
The onlookers were talking a lot.
Xiaolan and Conan didn't care about anything else and hurriedly crossed the cordon and went upstairs.
If the policeman standing outside the cordon had not been familiar with Mao Lilan, he would have asked his colleagues inside to stop them through the intercom.
But then again, as a police officer, wouldn't it be bad to see a female high school student familiar at the scene of a murder?
"Takagi! What are you doing? Keep a close watch on me!"
"Yes Yes!"
"Ding--"
When the elevator arrived, Xiaolan and Conan ran out and quickly came to Okino Yoko's house.
This time, no one surrounded Okino Yoko's house. Everyone went to Shirai's house downstairs. However, there were still police standing in front of Okino Yoko's house, and the door was not closed.
The two of them rushed in and saw Shiraijiu with a calm expression, sitting obediently on the sofa next to Okino Yoko, facing a beautiful female police officer.
There are no men in black, Shirai Shuko is safe, the police are still there, and it looks very safe here.
Conan breathed a sigh of relief, his legs softened, and he sat directly on the ground.
"Xiao Jiu!" Xiao Lan also breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately walked over and hugged Bai Jing Jiu, "That's great, you're okay..."
Bai Jingjiu let Xiaolan hold her, patted her back and comforted her, "Okay, okay, I'm fine. I'm sorry for making you worry."
Bai Jingjiu's calm tone and soft childish voice really had the effect of soothing her emotions. Xiaolan quickly calmed down, wiped the tears from her eyes and sat on the other side of Bai Jingjiu.
As for Conan... Shiraijiu seemed to have seen him and ran out again. Based on Baijiu's understanding of the high school detective, he probably ran downstairs to look at the body.
Officer Sato, who was in charge of recording the confession at the scene, understood Mao Lilan's mood very well, so he waited patiently for them to calm down before politely asking Shiraijiu questions in order to obtain more cases without irritating the children's emotions.
