"Mr. Ogawa, don't worry too much. This is just a prank deliberately played by someone." In the Mouri Detective Agency, Mouri Kogoro comforted Dr. Ogawa, "Maybe this person thinks that sending you money and second-hand toys will make you restless every day.
It’s a very interesting thing, but you don’t have to pay too much attention to it.”
"But, but..." Dr. Ogawa said that he really couldn't care less about this. "I don't even know who sent it, so how can I not worry about it?"
"That's right..." Mouri Kogoro thought about it for a moment. If he just sent money, he would indeed be very happy, but it would be really strange to send it with second-hand toys. If he didn't know who the person who sent the thing was, even he would be happy.
You will be restless.
Mouri Kogoro thought for a while and then confirmed with Mr. Ogawa, "By the way, you just said that the address and name of the sender are on the package, right?"
"Yes, it's the same every time." Ogawa replied, to prevent the detective from raising useless questions again. This time he took the initiative to say it first, "But in fact, the address is false, and I don't know the sender."
"..." Mouri Kogoro, who was about to ask you if you knew the sender, opened his mouth and naturally changed the question: "Well, since the address is fabricated, the name must also be a pseudonym. So, the only clue is,
All that remains is the letter I received today.”
With that said, Mouri Kogoro took out the envelope that he had just received today and was different from the previous ones. He took out the letter inside and wrote a paragraph on it - the two hundred and five million yuan has been paid in full. I would like to use this amount of money.
Make a deal.
This strange and weird letter is also the reason why Dr. Ogawa couldn't sit still and took the initiative to find the detective for help.
Conan also lay on Mouri Kogoro's chair and read the letter, "By the way, does the sender want to ask Mr. Ogawa what he wants to buy?"
"Huh?" The two adults were stunned. They really hadn't thought about this aspect yet.
Mao Lilan:......
Shiraijiu:……
"Mr. Ogawa, do you have anything worth about 25 million yuan in your home?" Mouri Kogoro felt that this was a breakthrough and asked quickly.
"How could it be possible for our family..." Dr. Ogawa was very confused, but suddenly, he was stunned and thought of something, "By the way, on the wall of the hospital where I work, there is a painting that was passed down from my grandfather's generation.
That painting is indeed worth about 25 million..."
"That's it!!!" Mouri Kogoro was almost certain of the answer, "It must be that person who wants to buy that painting from you! So in order to please you, I send gifts to your son every month!
That’s absolutely it!”
Although Conan thought it would not be that simple, this was at least a direction, so he quickly suggested: "Anyway, let's go to the hospital and look at the painting first! Maybe there will be clues!"
Mouri Kogoro once again felt that it made sense, "Excuse me, is it convenient?"
I originally came here to ask the detective for help, but now that I had the direction of the investigation, the client, Mr. Ogawa, naturally had no objections, "No, no problem..."
Mao Lilan:......
Shiraijiu:……
Everyone from the Mori Detective Agency followed Mr. Ogawa to the Rice Flower General Hospital.
Baijiu sneaks over to this place almost every night. I originally thought that I would come back after a while since I have already absorbed the dead energy. But in the blink of an eye, a month has passed, and Baijiu feels that I don’t have to wait any longer.
Just keep going.
Well, that's what I said, but in fact, Baijiu's familiarity with Mihua Hospital is mainly the way from the first floor to the morgue at night. This was the first time he came there during the day.
There was still a lot of traffic in the lobby on the first floor of the hospital. Bai Jingjiu followed everyone silently and looked around curiously.
"Speaking of which, I remember that Liquor seems to be in the hospital, right?" Suddenly, Mao Lilan's voice came from above Bai Jingjiu's head, and Mao Lilan, who had been a little wary of Baijiu in the detective agency, was in Bai Jingjiu's shell.
Zili was so frightened that her soul trembled. When she raised her head, she found that Mao Lilan was walking beside her and looking at her with a smile.
Danger!! Shiraijiu! Danger!!!
At this time, Baijiu should be glad that Shiraijiu's shell only has level two, and the integration of soul and shell is not very high, so even if Baijiu trembled in fright, on the surface Shiraijiu just raised his head and looked at Mao Lilan with a blank expression.
He opened his eyes a little expressively.
This is the unique paralyzed face of the Shirai family. No one can tell anything from the faces of the Shirai family! - Those who are biologically alive do not count.
Bai Jing's face was paralyzed and he answered softly with one word: "Yes."
"Hey - but which hospital is she receiving medical treatment in - Xiaojiu, don't you know yet?" Xiaolan looked a little worried.
Bai Jingjiu was in the group, "Well, dad didn't tell me, and Sister Jiuzi didn't contact me either."
Don't doubt me, I have Hiroshi Shirai as a witness. Even the organization can't discover my fake identity!
"Well - that's it..." Xiaolan responded with an unknown meaning and quietly observed Shiraijiu's reaction.
Shirai Kyuu didn't react at all. The face that was very similar to Shirai Shuko had an expression very similar to Shirai Shuko's. However, Shirai Shuko's expression was a little worse than Xiaojiu's.
By the way, Xiaojiu did mention that this is a hereditary disease in the Shirai family... The similarity is normal. After all, Xiaojiu and Shuako are half-sisters, and it was Shirai Shuko's father who called him personally.
Talked to them about renting accommodation...
It seems indeed that Xiaojiu is unlikely to be Shirai Shuko...
Everything about her makes sense...
"Ah, Mr. Ogawa..." A nurse in front stopped Mr. Ogawa, "We just received this basin that we want to give you. It was sent by Mr. Tanaka..."
"This year is indeed no exception..." Dr. Ogawa accepted the flowers helplessly.
Mouri Kogoro, who was already highly concerned about his client's frequent receipt of inexplicable gifts, immediately became extremely vigilant, "Could it be that this Tanaka...!"
"Yes, it's the same person." Mr. Ogawa confirmed Kogoro Mori's guess, "This flower has also been sent to the hospital two years ago. The difference is that it is only sent once a year, and it is fixed in August.
This kind of morning glory was sent on the 3rd..."
"Morning glory?" Mouri Kogoro's thoughts couldn't help but start to diverge, "Usually the people who give flowers are women, and the words of morning glory are [short-term love]..."
Mouri Kogoro turned to look at Mr. Ogawa: "Could it be that you were with a certain woman two years ago..."
"Absolutely, there is absolutely no such thing!!" Mr. Ogawa firmly denied this matter with a slight panic!
"Is August 3rd a special day? For example, your son's birthday or something..." Mouri Kogoro made a hypothesis.
"No, my son Yongta's birthday is in December. I really can't remember anything else..." Mr. Ogawa continued to deny.
As for special days, besides birthdays, there are also death anniversaries and the like...
As soon as the idea of analyzing and reasoning came up, Shiraijiu subconsciously raised his head and glanced at Xiaolan, who was reading a lot of Conan, and quickly put an end to his thoughts.
