Jiang Xia heard Hattori Heiji's inquiry, pointed at Kid, and introduced him in a friendly way: "His name is Kuroba Kaito. He is a strange... high school student who is good at solving crimes."
Kuroba Kaito almost broke into a cold sweat: "..." Threat! This is a naked threat!
When Hattori Heiji heard this, he didn't know what he thought of. He looked at Kuroba Kaito with an "I understand you" look: "So that's it."
Kuroba Kaito looked at him, and a question mark slowly appeared above his head: I always felt that when Hattori Heiji said this, his tone was full of sympathy... What's wrong? Are high school students who are good at solving crimes bad? Or is it because Hattori Heiji himself?
He is a high school detective, so he thinks being a detective is hard?
"..." In any case, since Jiang Xia had to go with this detective and had no time to harm innocent monsters, Kuroba Kaito decided to retreat in a low-key manner.
——He is a monster thief after all. It is fun to battle wits with the detective, but he still feels uncomfortable staying together for a long time.
"In that case, let's leave first." Kuroba Kaito picked up his luggage, took Terai Onosuke with him, and politely said goodbye.
Hearing this, Hattori Heiji turned to look at Jiang Xia, and found that he did not stop him, but waved goodbye in a friendly manner. He was suddenly startled: What's going on, Jiang Xia doesn't like having other detectives around when solving cases? He actually let people go.
Already.
Could it be...
Hattori Heiji had a bad premonition in his heart.
He took two steps back: "In that case, then I will also..."
"Let's go together." Jiang Xia looked at Suzuki Sonoko, raised his hand and put it on Hattori Heiji's shoulder, as if the two brothers were familiar with each other, "We just arrived in Osaka, and we are not familiar with the place, so we need a local person.
Let’s travel together.”
Hattori Heiji didn't want to go with them at all and showed a fake smile: "...Then I'll contact my friend and ask him to take you out for a walk. I have a competition today and I really can't leave."
"Game?" Jiang Xia looked more interested, "Then let's go watch your game - the attractions are available at all times, but your wonderful games cannot be seen at all times."
Hattori Heiji couldn't stand it anymore: "My game is not exciting at all! Go and play!"
Suzuki Sonoko was standing nearby. Hearing this sentence, he muttered dissatisfiedly: "Why are you so stubborn? Is it because your swordsmanship is too poor and you are afraid that we will see you lose miserably and feel embarrassed?"
"Nonsense, I'm super strong in swordsmanship!" Hattori Heiji turned around and realized that judging from Suzuki Sonoko's expression, she really thought that. She couldn't help but raised her head, "Go ahead! Let you see what I am.
How did you defeat that group of shrimp soldiers and crab generals!"
...The next itinerary was decided happily.
…
The Osaka Museum of Art opened only a few days later. Jiang Xia didn't expect that he would have so much time to spare when he met Kuroba Kaito on the way.
When he went to a nearby storage room to store his luggage, he looked at the peaceful streets and couldn't help but miss the days when he and Tohru Amuro traveled together.
"..." It's a pity that the boss is too busy, otherwise he should really invite him for a trip every now and then to relax...
…
While feeling deeply regretful, Jiangxia followed Hattori Heiji and Suzuki Sonoko to the Naniwa Central Gymnasium.
People are coming and going here, and it’s extremely lively—today, a kendo competition is being held in the gymnasium.
"Look, where Kazuha and my mother are." When they arrived, Hattori Heiji secretly breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly threw Jiang Xia, who was following closely, to others, "That's the audience area of our school, you go over there.
Watch the game—don’t just walk in and wander around.”
Jiangxia and Suzuki Sonoko looked along and saw the word "Change" posted in big letters where Hattori was pointing.
"Changata High School?" Suzuki Sonoko was a little surprised, "The name of your school is really strange."
Hattori Heiji wanted to refute, but thinking that he still had business to do at this time, he said no more and quickly disappeared into the crowd.
Jiang Xia did not continue to follow him. Anyway, Hattori Heiji had a competition here today and no one could run away.
The two went to the auditorium of Gaifang High School.
As soon as they arrived at the place, Yuan Shan and Ye recognized them: "Jiang Xia! Yuanzi is here too, haha, come and sit here - I didn't expect you would come to watch the game. Xiaolan and that kid went to the food next door
It's over, I'm bored waiting."
Next to Toyama Kazuha, a woman in kimono heard the noise and turned her head to look over.
Seeing Jiang Xia and Suzuki Sonoko, she smiled in the same friendly manner and moved out of the way for them.
Jiangxia looked at Suzuki Sonoko and Toyama Kazuha, then thought about Conan and Hattori Heiji who were nearby, and sat down next to them with peace of mind.
…
At the same time, several kilometers away.
In the bustling food street, Conan carried a bunch of Osaka specialties and planned to go back to the stadium to watch Hattori Heiji compete.
At this time, he suddenly sneezed and rubbed his nose, vaguely feeling that he was being remembered by something.
Conan touched the goosebumps on his arms, turned his head and looked around, and then his eyes suddenly stopped.
His gaze passed through the crowds of tourists and settled on the opposite side of the food street - parked there was a black Porsche that was so familiar that it was engraved in his bones. Although he couldn't see the inside clearly through the light-shielding film, for a moment,
, a terrifying word still jumped out of his mind.
——Gin?!
"..." Conan slowly, slowly moved towards the hiding place and retracted under the eaves of a nearby stall to prevent himself from being exposed to the other party's sight.
At the same time, a chill grew in his heart:
Why did Gin suddenly come to Osaka?
...I always feel like something terrible is about to happen.
Conan: "..." Speaking of which, why did my back feel cold just now? Could it be Gin...
A lot of conspiracy theories flashed through his mind, and he couldn't help but turn his watch, getting ready to deal with all dangers.
…
In the distance, among the black Porsches.
Gin felt vaguely like he was being spied on.
He stopped checking the information, turned his head warily, and looked outside the car with a cold gaze, scanning the crowd inch by inch.
However, this place is also a tourist check-in place, with a large number of tourists walking back and forth. Conan is really short and can easily disappear behind everyone's calves. In addition, he can hide quickly, so Gin does not notice his existence for a while.
…
Gin's appearance here today does not have a very clear purpose.
He was just wandering around some well-known attractions in Osaka. He passed by here just now and found that it was close to meal time, so he asked Vodka to buy two bento boxes and come back.
The efficiency of vodka is pretty good.
Not long ago, he found out useful information - the mysterious man who pretended to be an organization member, Murano Nobita, and used his account to post on the "Golden King" website, recently recruited people to organize a "Taiko Hideyoshi"
