On the way back from Kudo's house, that woman's gentle yet slightly dim eyes and that warm and comfortable embrace always echoed in Mud Mountain Xunxun's mind. It was a feeling that he could not describe but was very familiar with. It was as if he had felt it somewhere before, but also as if he had never felt this way before.
In a daze, Mud Mountain Seeker had unknowingly walked to Mao Li Detective Agency and bumped into Mao Li's family, who had just been about to leave. However, due to his absent-mindedness, Mud Mountain Seeker accidentally knocked over Conan, who was running out anxiously.
Feeling the impact in front of him, Mud Mountain Seeker regained his senses. He looked at Conan, who was rubbing his head, and said with an embarrassed face,""I'm sorry! I didn't see you. Are you okay?"
" I..." Conan's mouth twitched. He looked at the embarrassed Tushan Seeker speechlessly. He had become smaller, but he couldn't be invisible. How could he not see a living person standing there? However, since Tushan Xunxun had already apologized, he couldn't do anything about it. He could only squint his half-moon eyes and forgive the fox monster.
"Where are you guys going?"? Tushan Xunxun looked at Mao Li, who was dressed in formal attire, and Xiao Lan, who was on guard, and asked curiously.
"There's a despicable bastard following our lovely Miss Okino Yoko. Therefore, the righteous Maori Kogoro is going to capture this bastard and protect Miss Yoko.”Behind Mud Mountain Seeker, Mao Li's energetic shout suddenly came. Mud Mountain Seeker could even vaguely see the sun and sand behind Koguro.
"As expected, when uncle talks about beauties, he will be like this.”? Mud Mountain Seeker looked at the excited Mao Li and helplessly wiped the cold sweat off his forehead.
"Excuse me, everyone. Can we get in the car first? We'll talk when we reach Miss Yoko's apartment.”Yoko's manager, Shan 'an, stood in front of the car and looked at the people who were chatting happily. He interrupted helplessly. If they were to continue chatting like this, who knew how long they would continue chatting.
"Yes, yes, yes. Everyone, get in the car first. Don't let Miss Yoko wait anxiously.”When Mao Li heard his manager's words, he smiled embarrassedly and hurriedly called everyone to get into the car. Of course, this included Conan and Tushan Xunxun. Although detectives usually didn't bring children with them when they took on cases, now that all the adults had left, leaving a child and a fox demon behind wasn't something humane.
Tushan Xunxun, who wanted to stay at home and have some time alone, couldn't resist Xiaolan's persuasion. In the end, he got into the car and went to Okiya Yoko's temporary apartment. However, just as he got into the car, the trunk was quietly opened, and a few children got in.? Mud Mountain Seeker sensed something, but after confirming that the person behind the car didn't have any ill intentions, he didn't care.
? After about half an hour of driving, Mud Mountain Seeker and the others arrived at a relatively luxurious hotel. There were many other hotels around the hotel that were even more upscale than this one, but for some reason, they did not choose those higher-end apartment hotels.
"Wow! Was this where Yoko lived? It's also very luxurious." Mao Li came down from Cheshan and looked at the luxuriously decorated hotel entrance.
When Shan An heard Mao Li's words, he was instantly anxious and covered in sweat. However, he had a favor to ask of Mao Li now, so he did not dare to be too rude. He could only walk to Mao Li's side and softly say,"Mr. Maori, please don't speak loudly. Otherwise, our Yoko might be in trouble.”
Maori, who knew that he had made a mistake, quickly covered his mouth and followed Yamagishi and the others into the elevator without saying a word. They walked into Okino Yoko's room.
However, just as Okino turned on the lights, a man who was bleeding and looking at the door appeared on the living room floor of Okino's room. When Mao Li saw this scene, he rushed over and placed his middle and index fingers on the man's neck. After feeling it carefully, he shook his head solemnly and said softly,"He's dead. Xiaolan, hurry up and call the police. The rest of you, leave the room and don't destroy the scene.”
? At this moment, Tushan Xunxun realized that the man in front of him wasn't as weak as he appeared to be. At least from his reaction, Maori Kogoro was quite capable.
About fifteen minutes later, the police arrived.? This was the first time Tushan Xunxun had seen policemen in this world. Unlike the demon policemen in his world who flew around on magic treasures, the policemen in this world were all mortals. Although they looked strong, from their looks, their intelligence wasn't high.
If these police officers knew that this cute little boy had actually evaluated them in this way, and that his intelligence was judged based on his appearance, they would probably cry on the spot.
"It's you! Mao Li, I didn't expect it to be you again." At this moment, a person who looked like a leader walked out and looked at Maori Kogoro with a somewhat unhappy expression. He did not look like a friend who had not seen him for a long time at all. His face was filled with disdain. If there was a reason why he looked like a leader, it was probably because of his rotten stomach.
"Don't say that, Officer Mu Mu. I miss the time when we worked together!”When Mao Li saw this slightly muscular man, he happily went up to him and laughed. He looked very happy.
"That's right! It's all thanks to you. If it weren't for you, we wouldn't have been stuck in a maze when we were investigating the case.”Mu Mu squinted his dead fish eyes and looked at Mao Li, who seemed to be very familiar with him.
"Don't say that, Officer Megure.”Mao Li could not help but blush when he heard Mu Mu's merciless ridicule and how the people around him were trying not to laugh. He said awkwardly.
"Where were you at the time of the crime, Miss Okino?”However, Megure didn't even look at Maori, who was acting funny. Instead, he asked about Okino Yoko's whereabouts at the time of the crime in a serious manner. He looked like he had already started working and didn't accept private conversations.
"Oh, I know about that. At the time of the crime, Okino Yoko was with us, so she was not suspected of committing the crime.”At this moment, Mao Li jumped out and pointed at Okino Yoko with an infatuated expression. He completely ignored the disdainful gazes of everyone present, as well as the embarrassed Yoko Okino.
"The temperature in this room doesn't seem right. There are also water stains around the corpse. I don't know what they are. Also, the knife didn't seem to be inserted properly. It seemed to have been moved.”Just as everyone was observing their surroundings, a small figure suddenly appeared beside the coroner. The voice that shocked everyone came from the child's mouth. Immediately, the scene fell into a dead silence. Everyone's eyes were focused on the child who was talking confidently. And this child in the limelight is our high IQ and low EQ child, Conan.
" Uh…" As he spoke, Conan suddenly felt something. He quickly looked up and saw the strange looks from the crowd, as well as Tushan Xunxun's admiring expression. Knowing that something was wrong, Conan quickly stood up and scratched his head."Ah, ah, this, I saw it on TV, so I learned it!”
"Brat, don't spout nonsense for no reason, okay? Children should do what children should do.”Mao Li looked at Conan who was scratching his head. A black cross could not help but appear on his forehead. He rushed in front of Conan and punched him hard. Suddenly, a red bump appeared on Conan's head. It looked like it was one-fifth the size of his entire head.
"Hey, how can you do this? What's wrong with a child? Can't a child solve a case?”
"That's right. This uncle is really something. He actually hit Conan. Conan, are you okay?”
"Children can also help solve cases. Don't you see that Holmes has a group of children helping him? How can you discriminate against us?"
At this moment, three children who looked about the same age as Conan and Tushan Xunxun rushed in from outside the room. They protected Conan, who was rubbing the big bump on his head, and shouted at Maori Kogoro, who was looking fierce.
"Where did you kids come from? Where are your parents?”Kowuro looked at the three little ghosts standing in front of him, who were only around his knees, and asked in a bad mood.
" Uh, we, we are…" The moment they heard Mao Li ask about their origins, the three little brats almost instantly cowered and mumbled timidly, unable to say anything.
Conan, on the other hand, recognized the three kids in front of him almost immediately. Weren't they the three kids who pestered him to death today and wanted to be friends with him? Why did he appear here? For a moment, Conan even forgot the pain in his head. He asked the three little ones,"Why are you guys here?"
"They followed our car and hid in the trunk.”? Tushan Xunxun looked at the three children who couldn't speak and smiled. He walked out and answered Conan and Mao Li's questions on their behalf. The appearance of the three children reminded him of the time when he was still in the Fox Demon Academy. He could not help but speak up for them.
"How did you know?"? Seeing that Tushan Xunxun had exposed the way they had followed them, the three little ones couldn't help but ask in surprise.
"Oh, I already knew when you guys just got on the car. I just didn't want to expose you.”? Tushan Xunxun replied indifferently, then turned to Mao Li, who was still holding his breath, and said,""Uncle, don't lower yourself to the level of these children. Continue to solve the case.”? In fact, Mud Mountain Hunter wasn't interested in finding the murderer at all. He just killed a person, why would he need a monster's help? If they couldn't solve this, then humans wouldn't be so scary in their eyes.
