Conan's other self

Although it has entered September, the weather is still extremely hot.

Maplehara and Haihara Ai went out to buy some things together, and temporarily sat down in a nearby coffee shop to blow on the air conditioner in the store.

"Actually, you can buy some."

"What?"

"Peanut butter and blueberry jam, you just looked at them for a while."

"Isn't it because I'm afraid that the old man from the Three High School will eat it secretly..."

"You can just finish eating outside, just like now, find a shop and sit down..."

The sandwich was not troublesome to make, just like Kaedehara thought, it was just a matter of spreading the sauce on it.

Hearing the proposal, Hui Yuan Ai was a little moved, but after some hesitation, she decided to give up.

"Forget it, I have to control him so strictly, so I have to set an example myself..." As he said that, Haiyuan Ai looked at Feng Yuan suspiciously, "But you, being so skilled, shouldn't you be helping the doctor to steal food? ?”

"how come…"

He really didn't do this.

"Really? The doctor said that you used to like junk food..."

It's so unloyal to say anything...

"It's not because I don't have a choice..."

After defending, Fengyuan heard his cell phone ring.

It's Hattori Heiji's phone number.

After speaking to Haiyuan Ai, he answered the phone.

Huihara Ai concentrated on drinking coffee and kept quiet.

"Kudo! You should answer the phone quickly..." Hattori Heiji on the other end of the phone sounded a little unhappy, but Maplehara felt that this unhappiness was not directed at him.

"Thank you for the compliment. What's the matter?"

"It's Kudo who asked me to check on Reina Mizuno!"

Not long after the raid organization captured Rena Mizuna, a male transfer student named Hondo Eiyu came to Ran's class, which was also Kudo Shinichi's class.

He looks a little dull and lacks a sense of boundaries. He is relatively close to Xiaolan, which makes Conan, the jealous king of East Asia, feel a lot of inexplicable jealousy.

However, while enjoying the taste, Conan soon realized that this man had another purpose. He took a photo and wanted to find his biological sister. The person in the photo looked very similar to Rena Mizuna.

During the follow-up investigation, Maplehara and Conan discovered that Eiyu Hondo had lived in Osaka before, so they asked Hattori Heiji to help investigate.

"Conan asked you to return it to him, right?" Fengyuan asked.

Since Hondo Eiyu often goes to the Mori Detective Agency, it is easier for Conan to investigate. Maplehara was also present when Conan called Hattori to tell him about the incident.

"You're talking about it! I've been on the phone for a long time, but Kudo didn't answer my call! It made me so anxious!" Hattori Heiji said angrily, "I was impatient to wait, so I called you directly."

"He must be with Xiaolan and it's not convenient to pick him up..."

Maplehara could totally imagine Conan looking for an excuse to get away, only to find that Hattori Heiji had abandoned him when he picked up the phone.

"It's the same thing as you said! I asked Uncle Otaki to investigate during my vacation. According to what you said, I didn't tell him the reason for the investigation."

After a pause, Hattori Heiji continued to talk about the results of their investigation, "We investigated the Osaka school's list from twenty years ago, and there is no one named Reina Mizuna."

"In the end, we had no choice but to take the photo of the woman who looked very much like Reina Mizunana from ten years ago. The two of them went around Tsutenkaku Tower and asked many people...if anyone still remembered the host who took a long leave. , but no one knew her when she was young..."

"That means she may have left Osaka very early..."

"Yes, but this is just Reina Mizuna..." Hattori Heiji continued, "I showed them... the photo of Hondo Eiyu that Kudo sent me. Someone saw that guy when he was a child!"

"oh?"

"That was an uncle who opened okonomiyaki next to Tsutenkaku Tower. It is said that his father often brought him here to eat."

"What kind of person is his father...?"

"He seems to be a man who doesn't like to talk much. He only knows others call him Hondo," Hattori Heiji replied. "He occasionally goes to that store with his colleagues... However, he suddenly stopped going a few years ago..."

"Do you know what he does?"

"The uncle said that the former store manager might know. The former store manager and that man seemed to get along quite well, so they often chatted together after closing time..."

"Then what?"

"The former store manager has died of cancer, but he has a grandson whom he loves very much, and it is said that he talks to him about everything. The grandson went to college in Osaka for four years, during which time he often came to the store to eat, and probably also talked to him I must have met that man a few times..."

"Where is that grandson now?"

"I heard that there is a model shop opened in Tokyo... I also asked for the address and phone number of the shop... If you want to investigate, be careful. It is said that the father of Hondo Eiyu is not an ordinary person..."

"How do you say it?" Hattori Heiji paused for a moment, and then Kaedehara complimented him thoughtfully.

"His father brings different colleagues every time, and more than half of them are foreigners. Moreover, everyone, including his father, seems to have just returned from a funeral, all wearing black clothes..."

"Oh...no wonder you feel something is wrong..."

I almost forgot, the Kudo opposite doesn't have PTSD in black...

Hattori Heiji was a little surprised that Kudo didn't make a sound of shock, but he figured it out immediately, "That group of people also hated taking pictures, and they called his father different every time. Sometimes he called him Tsubouchi, sometimes Ishikawa... Hondo It’s just one of those titles.”

Even if he is not a member of the black organization, he is not an ordinary character. It also means the grandson of the former store manager may also be under surveillance.

After answering the phone, Haibara Ai had also finished drinking the coffee. Fengyuan poured all his coffee into his stomach as before, and the two returned to the doctor's house.

On the way, he also took a call from Conan.

Fengyuan planned to ask the doctor to take him there to have a look.

"I'm going to take a shower first." Haiyuan Ai said as soon as he entered the room.

"ah?"

"What's wrong?" Haiyuan Ai turned around and glanced at Fengyuan, who was still taking off his shoes, "Do you want to wash them together?"

"…May I?"

Hui Yuan Ai hugged her chest and cast a wary look, "Pervert."

"I knew it..." Fengyuan chose to admit defeat, "I just wanted to say that you don't need to follow..." Haiyuan Ai's eyes narrowed, and Fengyuan chose to continue to admit defeat, "Don't forget to put on your hat."

The weather is too hot, so masks are no longer needed. Moreover, Fengyuan actually didn't think this trip would be dangerous. He only reminded Haiyuan Ai to wear a hat just to be on the safe side.

"Know it."

After replying casually, Hui Yuan Ai went to take a shower.

Feng Yuan went to the workshop to talk to the doctor about the situation.

"Go and investigate the matter of our hall Yingyou," the doctor immediately agreed, "Of course I have no problem..."

"Then please ask Dr. to help make a phone call to contact the other party," Fengyuan walked towards the living room, "I have contact information..."

"By the way, isn't Conan going?"

"He missed Hattori's call, and then there was a murder."

Dr. Ari was not surprised at all.

Fengyuan helped the doctor dial the phone and turned on the external speaker. Then the doctor started talking to the other party according to what Fengyuan had just taught.

"Yes, it was actually your grandfather who asked me for help before he was alive. It is said that he was a regular customer who often came to the store and had a good relationship. He asked me to help him deliver something to him... I roughly know who he is, but I just want to confirm it. For a moment, because it is a very important thing..."

"Oh...could it be the guest who often brings his children?" Mr. Zongbing of Xijun on the other side of the phone replied.

"S-maybe yes! Do you know that person's name and work address?"

"Well, I've only seen him two or three times..."

"What are the characteristics of that person? Because there are two or three people that come to mind..."

"Well, you suddenly asked me this and I couldn't remember it for a moment..." the other person on the phone replied, "Well, do you want to see that person's photo?"

"Are there any photos? I heard that that person really doesn't like taking photos..."

"Yeah...but I took a picture by chance...it seemed to be taken by that person's son while he was playing with my camera..."

"Then, can you show us that photo right away?"

"Immediately? I'm going to the gym after the store closes at seven today, and I won't be home until after eleven..."

"It doesn't matter, we'll wait for you at your door..."

"Ah, forget it...I'll cancel the workout and go back right away..."

"May I?"

"It's okay. I haven't heard anything about grandpa for a long time... So, could you please wait for me in front of the apartment building I mentioned around eight o'clock?"

"Thank you very much!"

"If you can, please also tell me your characteristics..."

The communication with the other party was very smooth, and the doctor breathed a sigh of relief.

There was still a while before the agreed time, so Fengyuan went to see if there was any information about the model shop on the Internet. After Haihara Ai had taken a bath and the bathroom was empty, he went to take a shower too.

After dinner, at almost seven o'clock, they set off from the doctor's house and arrived at the agreed upon location dozens of minutes early.

However, an hour later, the other party did not appear.

"It's so strange... The place should be right..." Sitting in the car, the doctor glanced at his watch.

"Let's go in and take a look at the situation?" Fengyuan suggested.

There are two doors in the apartment building. The first glass door is unlocked and has a video answering machine next to it. Fengyuan helped open the door and watched from the side. Doctor and Haibara Ai walked in one after another.

"Did you forget your room number?" Haiyuan Ai came to the answering machine and looked back at Feng Yuan.

"yes…"

I don’t believe it, there’s something fishy…

Haiyuan Ai thought to herself, watching the doctor reach out his hand and press a few times on the panel.

The other party said that his room was Room 302.

Then, Haiyuan Ai heard the sound of the glass door being opened and closed again. Looking back, she was shocked to find a young man walking in, taking out a gun from his arms and pointing at Fengyuan who was standing at the door. .

Kudo just looked at the other person curiously...

She subconsciously took a step towards Fengyuan, and then noticed that Fengyuan glanced at the person speechlessly, then turned back to herself and said, "Don't worry, it's a model gun."

"Gun, gun..." The doctor finally reacted.

"Hey, I haven't started yet," the young man was a little surprised. Then he looked at Dr. Ali and stubbornly continued his performance, "Yo! You can really find this place, uncle."

"..."

After being discovered face to face, the man was too embarrassed to change the muzzle of the model gun to point at the doctor, so the scene was a little funny.

Haiyuan looked at Fengyuan with half-moon eyes.

"Hey, I didn't expect to be recognized so easily," the man sighed. It was Mr. Zongbing of Xijun they were going to see. "Yes, this is the model gun in my shop...

"Uh..." The doctor didn't know what to say.

"You're the one who called me earlier, right?"

"Yes, it is…"

"But, little brother, you are really awesome..." Mr. Nishigun looked at Fengyuan, "Just like those people in my grandpa's shop..."

He then explained to the doctor what he had just done.

"My grandfather is an unparalleled gun maniac. I often received this kind of welcome when I was waiting for him at the door of my grandfather's house... Once several customers in the store went to see him at home and were also welcomed by him like this. Those people behaved like This kid is almost..."

"This, this is it..."

"I'm so sorry. I think if I were Grandpa's friend, this joke would work...but it seems like I'm not very good at this..."

"Hahaha…"

The doctor laughed awkwardly in response.

"By the way, who are these two children?"

"They are my grandchildren. I brought them on my own initiative..." the doctor explained, "Isn't it inconvenient?"

"It's okay, it's okay, my house is very messy."

Mr. Nishigun waved his hand, then stepped forward and opened the apartment door. Fengyuan and others followed him towards his room.

"Then he just wanted to scare us and made us wait until we were impatient to ring the doorbell?" Hui Yuan Ai asked quietly.

"should be."

"What about you? You stood at the door on purpose at that time. It's not that you didn't remember the room number, but that you had discovered it a long time ago, right?"

"Yes. His level is average, so I thought he was not from the organization. His eyes kept falling on the doctor through the glass door. When he opened the door, he realized that I was standing next to him..."

Feng Yuan stood by the door just in case, and also because even if it was a model gun, he did not want the gun to be pointed at the doctor and Hai Yuan.

Soon they arrived at Mr. Nishigun's room. The other party took out the key and opened the door, and Feng Yuan walked in.

It's really a mess here.

Several pairs of slippers were scattered around the entrance, and no pair was even placed close to each other.

After changing his slippers and walking in, the doctor, who had been waiting in the car for a long time, couldn't help but ask Mr. Nishigun to use the toilet.

"Okay..." Mr. Xijun happened to be standing next to the toilet and helped open the door, "Please--"

Maplehara noticed a pair of slippers neatly placed in front of the toilet.

"Why is it so hot..."

Mr. Nishigun turned on the air conditioner as he spoke.

"Because it's very hot during the day. The heat hasn't dissipated yet..."

Haibara Ai said, and then noticed that Feng Yuan looked around the room a few times, and also glanced twice at the trash can filled with paper, as if a treasure box could be found in the trash can.

Mr. Nishigun rummaged through the photo album, but when he couldn't find it, he turned on the computer at Fengyuan's reminder, ready to let the doctor take a look at the photos in the computer.

But he immediately realized something was wrong.

"Huh? The data is missing..."

"Ah?" The doctor was still a little surprised even though he had seen it happen many times before.

"That's weird. I remember not deleting it. Why?"

"Maybe someone has entered this room," Fengyuan touched the computer case, "And just now..."

"Has someone come in? Was it just now?" Xijun said in surprise, "How is this possible..."

"The evidence is the water stains on the floor, concentrated near the bookshelf and desk, and there are wet napkins in the trash can... This should be the sweat of the intruder, left behind when looking for something in such a hot room..."

"Huh? Sweat?"

"That's right," Haihara Ai said, "This person sweated a lot after staying in a stuffy room. He wiped it with a napkin and threw it into the trash can. The sweat that he couldn't wipe off remained..."

"He didn't turn on the air conditioner because he was worried that you would feel the temperature was wrong when you came back." Fengyuan glanced at the computer case, "Of course the most important evidence is that your computer has just been turned on..."

"W-What!?"

"Just feel the temperature of the CPU part and you'll know."

Mr. Nishigun, like a parent holding onto his child, touched the chassis and felt that it was really hot there.

"Hey, is that guy's purpose..."

"It must be the photos. All the albums on the bookshelf and the data on the computer have disappeared... The sweat hasn't dried yet, so he must have been here just now."

"The question is how that person got in," Haiyuan Ai took over Fengyuan's words, "As you can see, the entrance door has no signs of being pried open, so it means he came in from other places..."

"W-who are you?"

Feeling that these two children were a little too smart, Mr. Xijun couldn't help but ask Fengyuan and Haiyuan Ai.

Hui Yuan Ai was stunned for a moment. Although the other party probably had nothing to do with the organization, she still didn't want to say her name. Just as she was hesitating, she heard Feng Yuan say:

"Her name is Mei, she's a detective!"
