Rebirth of Conan as a Detective

Chapter 26 Sudden commission

On the weekend, Conan found an excuse to leave the Maori detective office and went straight to Gaocheng.

Without knowing if it was a black organization killer, Conan asked Gao Cheng for a newspaper clipping.

The case in the newspaper clipping is followed by a case recently resolved by Gao Cheng. Even the Mihua Shrine was tampered with by the system. Conan was a little puzzled when he saw it, but he didn’t think much about it, and went straight to the front.

None of the cases involved in Gao Cheng seemed to make people hire a killer to get revenge, but the case of the old man in the city seemed possible.

“Does your grandpa only have these cases?” Conan asked curiously.

“There are still some files in the cabinet, but not many,” Gao Cheng thinks. “The old man seems to have been working as a detective abroad before. If you think that the killer originally came for my grandfather, it is quite possible. ”

Conan said that he had no choice but to find the remaining files first.

On this day, the police also sent someone to protect Gao Cheng’s safety. It turned out to be the good old police officer Takagi Takagi in Conan. Although the young and honest look looks a little unreliable, according to Mumu’s ability. not bad.

While Conan was looking up the dossier, Takagi looked at Gao Cheng who was about to go out embarrassedly: “Kito-kun, do you really want to go out now? If the killer is ready to deal with you…”

“The killer looks very cautious. It’s not a way to do this,” Gao Sung touched the back of his head and smiled, and took the wooden knife to Lake Toya. “Aren’t there still officers Takagi you protect me? Don’t worry, nothing will happen. .”

Takagi is both honored and worried: “That’s right, but…”

“I’ll go with you, too,” Conan read the dossier with his unforgettable ability, and watched Gao Cheng’s mouth twitching, “Really, didn’t I have to be terribly scared before? I forgot everything as soon as I commissioned it. .”

“There is a commission fee of 500,000 yen!” Gao Cheng muttered, “And just to participate in a kendo party on behalf of someone, you can get 500,000. Don’t you think it’s abnormal? It just happened to pick out the secret person. !”

“After all, it’s because of 500,000, right?” Conan was blindfolded, “Anyway, I’ll go with me too. The other party shouldn’t care about me as a child.”

“That…” Takagi wanted to ask Conan what was going on, but couldn’t put his mouth in, so he could only leave the city detective office with a dazed expression.

……

Suwa Mansion, outside a Japanese-style building with a sense of history, Gao Cheng and his party enter the courtyard under the leadership of the housekeeper.

“I’m okay, but you kid is really worrying,” Gao Cheng took advantage of the time when Officer Takagi was observing the environment, and smiled bitterly at Conan. “Why do you have to follow, what if you accidentally hurt you? ?”

Conan half-opened his eyes and curled his lips: “Don’t make me feel like a cumbersome thing. The invention that the doctor gave me is also quite powerful. It may not be worse than you. Moreover, didn’t you say you want to ask me to investigate? Don’t come here. How to investigate?”

A group of people walked into the main house. There were already some people gathered inside, all people related to kendo. They were a little surprised to see the young Gao Cheng three.

Few people attend such gatherings with children, and Gao Cheng, the only one with a knife, is too young.

“Is he the Soji Okita, a swordsman genius in Kyoto’s high school student?” A young man who didn’t know the situation curiously looked at Gao Cheng, and asked the person next to him in a low voice, “Is Mr. Suwa still inviting him?”

The person being questioned shook his head: “I don’t know, but it shouldn’t be the Soji Okita? I haven’t heard that there are people from Kyoto this time.”

The young man said embarrassedly: “I used to see Souji Okita from a distance in the Kendo tournament in Osaka. It’s so similar.”

Everyone was talking quietly, and a man in a kimono walked into the venue with a real sword.

The man has a pair of squinted eyes, a moustache, and a cold and serious face. It looks a little dangerous.

“Mr. Suwa!”

When the man came in, the discussion at the meeting suddenly stopped, and they asked one after another: “Can we see the knife?”

Suwa Yuji’s complexion was not very good, and he walked by everyone silently, noticing that Gao Sengshi who was sitting still stopped in his footsteps.

Even though he looked at the teenager who was simply sitting, there was a feeling that he couldn’t tell, as if he was facing a mountain that couldn’t be crossed.

I don’t know if it’s an illusion, as if a silver-haired warrior is smiling at him…

Suwa Yuuji squinted his eyes, and suddenly pulled out the samurai sword. In the horrified gaze of Takagi who was too late to react, he slammed to Gao Cheng.

“what!!”

“Danger!” Under the treacherous scene, Takagi hurriedly wanted to push Gao Cheng away, but before he could move, the wooden knife Toyako’s electric light and flint room was already pointed in front of Suwa Yuji’s throat.

“boom!”

The samurai sword was inserted obliquely into the wooden floor, and the handle of the knife vibrated again and again.

Suwa Yuji looked shocked, rubbed his flushed wrist, and looked at Lake Toya that Gao Cheng was holding with a complicated expression: “This wooden knife is…”

He just meant to give it a try, but before the power was recovered, the family kendo was instantly broken. It is hard to believe that there will be such a powerful swordsman in modern society, and he really felt the threat of death just now.

“Lake Toya.”

Gao Cheng retracted the wooden knife suspiciously He didn’t feel the man’s killing intent, just now there seemed to be signs of recovery…

“Lake Toya? The young people nowadays should not be underestimated. It is the first time I have seen how to use wooden swords to such an extent!” Suwa Yuji drew his samurai sword from the ground and took a deep look at Gao Cheng. , And said to the startled Gao Mu again, “Don’t worry, this little brother is much better than you, I just want to give it a try.”

“Huh? Jodo-kun is better than me?”

Takagi was still immersed in the scene just now, a little confused, and returned to his place in a daze.

At this time, Suwa Yuji also suppressed the horror in his heart and returned to his main position.

“Everyone, I am afraid I will disappoint you. I will show you Kikuchiyo next time.”

“Chrysanthemum Chiyo?”

While starting to exchange experience in kendo in the venue, Gao Cheng asked the young man next to him: “What is Kikuchiyo?”

The youth is the one who misunderstood Gao Cheng as Okita Souji. He had just seen Gao Cheng’s swordsmanship and did not dare to despise it at all. He enthusiastically said: “Kikku Chiyo is a famous sword passed down from generation to generation in Suwa. It’s difficult. This time everyone basically came for this famous knife.”

The young man said, carefully glanced at the other people, and whispered: “However, I heard that Mr. Suwa seems to have mortgaged Kikuchiyo because of borrowing money.”

“Borrow money?” Conan’s ears were very sharp. Hearing Suwa Yuji seemed to be short of money, he temporarily excluded Suwa Yuji from the suspects. After all, 500,000 yen is not too much. This person does not seem to be willing to take it out. People, it’s possible to be bought by the suspect.

“How?” Gao Cheng leaned aside and asked, “Did you find the suspicious person?”

Conan shook his head: “These people don’t seem to be, I have to look again.”
