Chapter 141

The doorbell rang twice.

Xiaolan had just finished talking on the phone with Kudo Shinichi, and she was still standing at the table thinking about it.Seeing that she didn't notice the doorbell at all, Bai Shu had no choice but to get up from the sofa and walk over to open the door by himself.

Standing outside the door was a young man with a dark complexion, a baseball cap pressed down to his nose, and only his chin and tight lips were exposed.

Bai Shu looked him up and down, and before he could say a welcome speech, Hei Pi on the opposite side yelled, "Kudo Shinichi is here, right, let him come out and have a showdown!"

"...", Bai Shu just wanted to say that Kudo Shinichi was not there, but suddenly remembered that he should not be familiar with "Kudou Shinichi".

So he looked puzzled like an innocent passerby who had been knocked on the wrong door, "Who? You've found the wrong place. We don't have anyone named Kudo Shinichi here."

When Xiaolan heard the name, she looked towards the door.

Heipi noticed her actions and chuckled, "Although Kudou is not here, but Kudou's woman is here - she must know the whereabouts of that kid!"

"Kudou's girl...woman??", Xiaolan's cheeks flushed, she raised her hand to cover her face, what nonsense is this person talking about!

Heipi and Xiaolan had an inconclusive exchange around the question "Where is Kudo Shinichi?"

A moment later, there was a weak sneeze from the door.

Bai Shu looked down and saw that Conan had come back. The child was standing at the door, looking up at the stranger in the room suspiciously, "This person is...?"

"I don't know him. He rushed in just now and said he wanted to find Shinichi Kudo."

Conan's feet swayed, and he almost bumped his head against the clothes hanger next to him.

On the other side, after asking about the conversation between Xiaolan and Kudo Shinichi, Hei Pi pondered for a moment, then rushed to the window and looked around.

"...What are you doing?" Conan stared at him nervously.

Kudo Shinichi's identity is related to the black organization, and suddenly a man running out aggressively looking for Kudo Shinichi, he couldn't help but be alert.

Heipi raised a finger, pushed the brim of the low hat, ignored Conan, just looked at Xiaolan and snorted:
"Don't you think it's strange? He will often call to show that Kudo cares about you, but he seldom asks about you on the phone, which shows that he knows your situation very well—it is even possible that he will Hiding in a nearby corner, watching you all the time!"

Hey...you guessed right.

Bai Shu couldn't help turning his head to look at the real master. Conan at his feet had an expression of being struck by lightning. Fortunately, Hei Pi didn't look at him at this time, otherwise he would definitely notice his abnormality.

Thinking of the person she likes hiding next to her, Xiaolan couldn't help but blushed even though she was described as a voyeur, and subconsciously glanced out the window, but of course, she didn't find what she was looking for people.

Xiaolan was a little lost, and her thoughts of being led astray also returned to the right track, and she asked Hei Pi, "Who are you?"

"...Kudou didn't mention me? Heh, I really don't care about others."

Heipi lowered his head and held the brim of the hat, and he lifted it off coolly, revealing his entire face, "Remember, my name is Hattori Heiji, and like Kudo Shinichi, I am a high school detective!"

ah-

Conan sneezed, his tense expression relaxed, and he revealed a pair of dead fish eyes.

Fortunately, it wasn't the man in black—although this man wasn't wearing all black, the word "black" immediately popped into Conan's head when he saw him just now.

After regaining his senses, Conan started looking for paper in a hurry.

Hattori Heiji finally noticed the sneezing child.

He stared at Conan for a while, and suddenly he had a flash of inspiration, he laughed twice, and took out a bottle as long as an arm from his backpack.

Hattori Heiji poured out a glass full of transparent liquid and handed it to Conan, "Here, the special medicine for colds!"

"Ah, thank you." Conan took it and licked it, and was hissed hotly.

However, this feeling of fever seems to be really useful for catching a cold. He raised his head and gulped it all down.

Hattori Heiji saw Shiraki who had been staring at the bottle, "Have a drink?"

"No, I like something with a lower alcohol content, such as 0.01%." He has already seen the words "Lao Baigan" on the bottle and the alcohol content is not low, so he has no interest in this tongue-spicy drink.

"Degree?" Xiaolan was startled, and suddenly turned her head to look at Conan next to her, who had already started to walk and drift.

Xiaolan hurriedly supported him, turned her head and complained to Hattori Heiji, "Don't just drink alcohol to children!"

Hattori Heiji didn't feel guilty about spoiling the child at all. He tightened the cap of the bottle, stuffed the bottle into Kogoro Mouri's arms, and made a familiar request:

"Take this bottle of wine as my accommodation fee. Please take care of me until I meet Kudo."

Xiao Lan objected very much, "Hey!! Don't make such a request casually!"

There were a few vague ding-dong sounds, which were covered by noisy fighting.

Bai Shu waited for a few seconds, but no one opened the door, so he had to take on the job of welcoming the guests again.

Outside the door was a woman wearing an expensive camel hair coat.

She was holding a mask she had just taken off in one hand, and was taking off the sunglasses on her face with the other hand.

The woman opened her lips slightly, and originally wanted to say a few words of greeting, but after seeing the noisy scene in the room, she couldn't help but frowned, and changed her words, "Leave the guests at the door, this is the way of hospitality in your house." Road?
Chimura Gongjiang's powerful aura finally attracted the attention of several other people, and the room gradually became quiet.

Only then was the woman satisfied. She walked into the room slowly, bowed slightly, and said in a polite but unrefusable tone, "I have an urgent entrustment, please go and investigate immediately."

It was her prospective daughter-in-law that Chimura Gongjiang wanted to investigate.

Having said that, Ikemura Gongjiang firmly disagrees with this marriage. Although she hasn't explained the purpose of the commission, she also knows that she is going to entrust Kogoro Mori to dig out the dark side hidden by her daughter-in-law—if that side really exists.

Ikemura Koe handed the information on his daughter-in-law to Mori Kogoro, and after he had read it, she got up and picked up her coat:

"This matter is jointly entrusted by my husband and I. Please come to my home to discuss the details. I don't want this matter to be recorded or spread in any form."

Mori Kogoro delayed for two seconds before realizing that his husband was referring to Ikemura Koe's husband. He looked at the strong wind outside and felt a little reluctant to leave, "Why don't you two come together?"

Chimura Gongjiang began to frown again, and the eight-character lines on the tip of his eyebrows were vivid and three-dimensional, "Didn't I just say that my husband is a diplomat, if someone finds out that he came to this kind of place..."

"It will become a scandal." Hattori Heiji answered quickly.

He didn't mind the woman's dislike of the private detective, pointed at Kogoro Mori, and suggested to himself:

"Why don't I go with this uncle, so that it will be like a father taking a son, and it will be less likely to be suspected."

Xiaolan and Conan looked at him speechlessly, did they recognize their father so casually?

I thought that Ikemura Gongjiang would refuse "idle people" to sneak into his home, but unexpectedly, the other party didn't care.

She even offered to say, "Your words are very reasonable. If this is the case, then the little girls and friends over here should go too."

Considering Conan's cold, Xiaolan wanted to refuse.

But Hattori Heiji's words touched her, "If you see suspicious people around you—such as me, maybe Kudo can't help but show up."
