Unable to get an appointment with Mouri Kogoro, Hattori Heiji could only make other ideas.
If you go directly to Conan... it would be too weird for him, a high school student, to ask an elementary school student out. You can't afford to lose this person.
Hattori Heiji thought for a moment, and his eyes fell on Toyama Kazuha, who happened to visit his house. After looking at it for a while, an idea suddenly flashed.
Hattori Heiji calmly swayed next to Fa Xiao and suggested very naturally: "By the way, Kazuha, didn't you say you wanted to go to Tokyo with me before? Why don't you go make an appointment with Mao Lilan, she has lived in Tokyo since she was a child?
, I must know a lot of fun places.”
——In Hattori Heiji's view, according to the viscosity shown by Conan, as long as he gets an appointment with Mouri Ran, rounding off is equivalent to getting an appointment with Conan.
When the time comes, let Mao Lilan take Shizuka Hattori and Kazuha to go shopping, while he takes Conan to kill them first and sneak away later. The two of them go to Ogasawara to happily handle the case and have a competition by the way.
When Hattori Heiji was thinking happily, Toyama Kazuha did not agree as decisively as he thought.
Instead, after being stunned for a moment, he asked coolly: "A date with Mao Lilan? What do you mean?"
Hattori Heiji was startled by her tone, and subconsciously waved his hand to explain: "That's right, that kid from her family is quite close to me..."
As he talked, Hattori Heiji gradually fell silent.
——Yuanshan Heye showed an expression like "Are you lying to me?"
This suddenly made Hattori Heiji feel alarmed: Could it be that Toyama Kazuha saw his true purpose, knew that he actually wanted to date Conan, and also guessed that something was wrong with this kid Conan?
Thinking of this, Hattori Heiji inevitably felt guilty.
He cleared his throat: "Forget it, stop fighting, I'll do it."
...it would be better for him to go directly to make an appointment with Conan.
Fortunately, Conan usually behaves very smart, and he can pretend that he is playing with Conan because he is trying to cultivate the next generation of talents.
Cultivating things for the future is not shabby.
As for indirectly meeting Conan through making an appointment with Eka... Hattori Heiji has no such option in his mind.
Although because of what happened before, he felt that the people in Jiangxia were pretty good and no longer avoided the Tokyo detective like a snake or a scorpion, this did not mean that he liked solving cases next to Jiangxia.
——That feeling is more uncomfortable than reading a suspense novel and someone has circled the murderer in advance, because the other person did not come back to spoil the story after reading it, but suddenly circled the murderer while they were reading it together, and they were able to circle it correctly every time.
…
…
Hattori Heiji thought about the case he had solved near Jiangxia before. No, the feeling of being forcibly spoiled near Jiangxia made him wilt a little.
He walked to the side languidly and dialed Conan's number.
Toyama Kazuki looked at Hattori Heiji's back, narrowed his eyes slightly, and quickly took out his mobile phone.
She flipped through her address book and found Mao Lilan's number - the last time Mao Lilan and the others came to Osaka, Toyama and Ye politely exchanged contact information with her.
She tried dialing and found that the line was not busy. This meant that Hattori Heiji had sneaked away just now and was not calling Mao Lilan, but calling someone else.
This made Yuan Shan and Ye breathe a sigh of relief, but they also felt a little complicated. They felt that the number of potential love rivals had increased.
——Who is Hattori Heiji calling on the phone? He actually walked far away to avoid calling her...
Yuan Shan and Ye thought of this and suddenly wanted to follow and eavesdrop.
However, at this time, her call to Mao Lilan was picked up.
Mao Lilan's slightly surprised voice came from the receiver, as if she didn't expect to receive a call from Yuanshan Heye: "Heye?"
Yuan Shan and Ye could only suspend their eavesdropping plan.
However, this does not mean that she intends to ignore Hattori Heiji's trip to Tokyo.
Toyama Kazuye showed a cool smile, but his tone was very sweet: "That's it, I want to ask you if you are free the day after tomorrow. Heiji and I are going to Tokyo soon, but I don't know what interesting places there are."
Mao Lilan happened to be free that day and enthusiastically said that she could help as a guide.
After discussing the matter, Toyama and Ye falsely conveyed the edict: "By the way, if Jiang Xia is free, be sure to call him - Heiji said that he hadn't seen him for a long time and wanted to share detective skills and the latest crackdowns with him.
What about the case?”
Mao Lilan was originally happy because Yuan Shan and Ye took the initiative to contact her. When she heard this, she became even happier: "Okay."
After discussing the meeting place the day after tomorrow, both parties hung up the phone with satisfaction.
Toyama Kazuha is quite pleased: based on her last experience, when Jiang Xia is present, most of the other girls' attention will be taken away by Jiang Xia, and few people will pay attention to Hattori Heiji. No matter which vixen Hattori Heiji is secretly asking to meet
, he can’t even think of succeeding!
Mao Lilan was also quite pleased: Although Hattori Heiji was very unfriendly to Jiangxia at first, it can be seen that this Osaka high school student detective is actually a kind-hearted and good person. Jiangxia made new friends without knowing it, which shows that he is better than
I was much more cheerful before...I really look forward to meeting you the day after tomorrow.
…
On the other side, Hattori Heiji, who was stabbed in the back, knew nothing about it.
He just called Conan and originally wanted to talk about Ogasawara's entrustment, but after thinking about it before speaking, he felt it was not safe.
So in the end, he only told Conan that he would go to Tokyo the day after tomorrow - no one knew when Conan would spill the beans. As a resourceful detective, Hattori Heiji felt that he had to consider various situations.
Of course, even if they were just shopping together, Hattori Heiji carefully warned Conan and told him to remember to keep it secret from Jiang Xia.
He really didn't want to be wandering around, suddenly encounter a body falling from the sky, and then it's not his turn to solve the case.
Conan heard the request on the receiver, glanced at Jiang Xia who was sitting opposite him, and hung up the phone hesitantly.
——Conan is currently having dinner at the doctor’s house.
Coincidentally, Jiang Xia is also there.
And now, after Conan put down the phone, he found that Jiang Xia was looking at him with a questioning look, obviously hearing the "Hattori" he said when he picked up the phone just now.
Sitting next to him, Hui Yuan Ai, who was holding a small bowl, looked at Jiang Xia and then at Conan.
Although she didn't quite understand what happened specifically, she knew Jiang Xia's current intentions very well.
So he helped start the conversation as if nothing had happened: "What happened?"
Conan used his chopsticks to pick up vegetables, and his heart was filled with conflict between heaven and man.
A few seconds later, he sighed and looked at Jiang Xia: "Hattori asked me to go out to play the day after tomorrow. Well... why don't you come along?"
...Although I feel very sorry for Hattori-san from Osaka, Jiangxia already knows that the person on the other side of the phone is Hattori Heiji, and can more or less guess Hattori Heiji’s purpose.
Instead of waiting for Jiang Xia to take the initiative to "encounter", it would be better to invite him together from the beginning...
