Miss Moriarty wants to save Mihua Town today too

"Your face is clearly thinking of 'sarcasm woman', but that's what it is. Miss Lihua, maybe her life will be targeted by someone, not necessarily."

Xiao Ai teased casually, but Conan didn't know Winnet's true face, and couldn't understand her intentions. "How is this possible?" He shook his head, if there were a lot of murders around him every day, even a detective would not be able to bear it.

But she wasn't completely joking, Jiuye Masumi in the last case also came to the scene.Although she didn't know what name the other party came under, she knew the purpose - she was trying to kill someone, maybe it was the eldest lady of the Four Wells Group.Winnet hadn't revealed much to her, so she wasn't sure, but she knew that tonight was not destined to be so peaceful.

"What a coincidence, Miss Winnet and Xiaolan, you are all here."

Jiuye Masumi, who was dressed in a lady's formal attire, greeted them.Unlike the last time we met, she was dressed more neutrally, with a hydrangea-shaped brooch hanging on a black suit jacket, a pair of transparent lenses on the bridge of her nose, and a small camera in one hand.

Both Winnet and Xiaolan were surprised by her arrival. They met at different places for different reasons for two consecutive days.Xiaolan asked Jiuye Masumi curiously about the reason, and Jiuye said that the banquet held by the daughter of the Sijing Group was also a good place to collect information-gossip in the circle.After hearing the reason, Xiaolan couldn't keep up with the rhythm. The last time Jiuye Masumi introduced him, he was a freelance photographer who mainly focused on landscapes, which was quite different from her imagination.

During their conversation, Mifune, who had ridiculed Mori Kogoro earlier, also greeted him.He put Jiuye Masumi on the shoulder with a smile on his face, which made Xiaolan even more astonished.She thought that Jiuye Masumi and Du Shangya were a perfect couple. "That..." Xiaolan just wanted to ask, but Sanfuan took a couple of steps and explained nonchalantly, "I was a failed suitor, that's all."

His free and unrestrained attitude made Xiaolan's eyes changed again, and she was completely stunned.

Jiuye Masumi glanced at Mifune with a tangled face. She frowned and called his name. The latter shrugged. He raised Winnet's hand from bottom to top with a stride, and said with a confident smile: "This beautiful Miss! May I know your name?" As he spoke, he bent down, but missed.

Winnet withdrew her hand.

If it's just a courtesy, she can still accept it, but she is neither a married woman, nor is it a relatively suitable occasion, and the other party also has a half-knowledge of this etiquette, and does not know the specific intention.

"Mr. Mifune, I think you need to relearn this etiquette."

Winnet was still smiling, which made her look graceful.

Among all the ladies, her temperament is the most wonderful, just standing here, it is impossible to ignore.

"Mifune, you have made the wrong idea! Let me introduce you. This is Miss Winette Moriarty, the daughter of the Durant Group and the person in charge of the group. To her, your Status and money are not worth mentioning, if you want to be moved by true feelings, such a superficial strike-up will not work."

Kuye Masumi patted him on the shoulder.

Mifune didn't feel embarrassed, he said: "I really should learn it, please forgive me for being rude, Miss Moriarty." After he apologized, it seemed that he had completely lost interest, even Xiaolan couldn't bear it. Can't help complaining about "changing so fast".

"Because I don't like Missy," he said to Xiaolan, "I didn't plan to come to Miss Lihua's banquet at first, but my father was determined to make me pursue Miss Lihua, so I have to do some superficial work." He looked at Xiaolan with burning eyes, and after a while, he said, "Unfortunately, you still look like a high school student."

Conan, who was watching from the sidelines, tightened his chest.

This guy……

Seeing that the other party didn't do anything bad to Xiao Lan, he was relieved, and noticed Hui Yuan Ai who also had a bad expression on him.

"Why...you hate that person too?" He asked casually.

"How can you not hate a frivolous and stinky man... However, compared to a heartless man who suddenly disappeared without a trace, this type is still good."

"You..."

Conan understood in seconds, this was all about him——Kudo Shinichi.

However, she was right, if she continued to maintain her current state and become a shadow that could not appear beside Xiaolan at all, she would disappear one day.She squinted her eyes, stared at Xiaolan, and said to Xiaoai: "If you have the information on that medicine, how long will it take to make the antidote?" He hopes to get an answer that people look forward to.

Xiao Ai also looked at Winnet in front of her, absent-minded. "You are not a real child. The guarantees related to all uncertainties are just a means of coaxing by adults. If you want me to lie to you, the conclusion is within three years... the time I researched it is almost It’s been so long, if it’s analyzed in reverse, the time shouldn’t exceed this time. But——” She turned around and looked at Conan, “The premise is that it’s possible.”

Conan nodded, "As long as you can continue to study, it must be possible."

"yes……"

"You are the developer of this drug. If even you can't do it, I don't think there is any other way."

"You have to be clear that destruction is always easier than creation. Although what you want me to do is not that difficult, reversing destruction is far from easy...Be prepared to fail, this is my advice .”

"I see... I will find out about them as soon as possible."

Conan thought to himself, as long as he got a sample of that drug, even if there was a gap in the data, he could take a big step forward.

"Whispering?"

Suddenly, Winnet breaks into the conversation.

"No, it's just something about homework for the school holidays. Edogawa has a question and asks me."

It's a blessing that you can lie without changing your face... Conan thought to himself, if he can also learn this kind of stunt, then there should be no possibility of being exposed in front of Xiaolan.Although it is intuition, he always feels that Xiaolan is gradually realizing his true identity. When living together, some details will be magnified at a high power. Doubt the real identity.

Moreover, he often inadvertently made some more flaws.

"That's right."

"Yes," Haibara asked again, "how long are we going to stay?"

Judging from the situation at the scene, the banquet should be almost over.Because this is just a birthday party, not a grand celebration party, and most of the people who come here are not close to Lihua Sijing, Xiao Ai thought to herself, tonight should be able to end smoothly.

"Mr. Mori seems to be drunk..."

Winnet changed the subject.

After she said this, Conan remembered Kogoro who had been eating extravagantly since the beginning of the banquet.He looked towards the dining table, where Kogoro was leaning on the stool with his head down, snoring.

"Really, why are you so drunk!" Xiao Lan couldn't help complaining.

After a while, just as Xiao Ai thought, the banquet was over, and the guests who came to celebrate left one after another, except for the host, there were only a few suitors of Lihua Sijing, and a few of them.

"I have no choice but to let him sober up first." Xiao Lan sighed, and then looked at Winnet, "Miss Winnet, why don't you go back first? Seeing my father's appearance, there will be no sleep in a while. There is a way."

Conan followed with a headache.

Only Uncle Kogoro can drive, but now he is drunk like this, maybe he has to stay in this villa today.

It's really cheeky to stay here after eating.

"Okay...Although I want to say that," Winnet looked at Sophia who was drinking alone, "but it seems that there is no way..."

Xiao Ai followed with a headache.

"Two lousy drunks."

Without the driver, it would be impossible for them to leave even if they wanted to.In Winnet's condition, it is obviously impossible to drive. Although she can drive, the absurdity of elementary school students driving is on par with the absurdity of blind people driving.She quietly tugged on Lawinette's skirt, "You didn't do anything, did you?" She also glanced at Sophia who was half lying on the table: "Why does she drink like this?"

"It seems that because of Mr. Hebe's incident, the original cooperation plan has been postponed, and the police investigation is still underway, and rumors about the company's badness have spread. This is undoubtedly a strong woman who wants to run a good business. It was a fatal blow."

Winnet speculated on an explanation.

"Don't you want to continue making love with that girl?"

"Who?"

"Kudou's girlfriend."

"How is this possible?"

"It's very difficult to be completely rational in front of the person you like," Xiao Ai said, "My woman is chatting with other women in front of me, and I can only watch from behind as a child, don't you think it's a bit too much ?"

"Eh……"

Could it be that Xiao Ai is jealous?Looking at Xiao Ai's expressionless face, Winnet was a little unpredictable.

At the same time, Conan, who went out to blow the air, heard the conversation between the chairman of Sijing Group and Masaki Muta, the car had a flat tire, and Ms. Lihua decided to stay in the villa tonight, together with four of Miss Lihua's strong suitors .

Since the road up the mountain has a long distance and is very steep, it is very difficult to go down the mountain without using a car.But Miss Lihua didn't want to squeeze into other people's cars and go down the mountain, so it turned out like this.

But what made him feel strange was that except for Kogoro's car, the tires of the other six cars were all damaged.

It was almost as if he wanted to let the car go.

There is also Sofia's sports car without a flat tire.

While he was thinking, Miss Lihua and the others returned to the villa.At this time, he heard the man named Nikaido who stayed behind talking to himself.

"You don't have to dream, Miss Lihua's partner was decided two years ago."

……

254 contact

Conan murmured in his heart: Miss Lihua is really in demand!

Seeing that there was no one else outside, he also planned to return to the villa. Although the simultaneous tire blowout of the car must have been a deliberate move by someone, considering that the target was Miss Lihua and her suitors, he subconsciously felt that this might It was also the work of a certain competitor, or it was simply caused by one of these suitors - spending a night with Miss Lihua in the villa, of course, it may also be a pure prank.

As soon as he climbed up to the second floor, he met Winnet who was standing not far from the stairs.The second floor has a regular square shape, and the banquet hall is just opposite to the corner of the stairs, so no matter which direction you go to the banquet hall, the distance is about the same.He roughly estimated the location, and he could see that Winnet's purpose should be related to the toilet.He hasn't forgotten the guidance given by the old woman just now.

Conan greeted. "Sister Winnet?"

"So it's Conan... What's the matter?"

Under the influence of Xiao Ai, Winnet withdraws her ill will towards the original famous detective "Kudo Shinichi".She now needs to ensure two things: one is that the relationship between her and Xiao Ai in the organization cannot be leaked, and the other is to ensure that the people around her will not be affected by the organization's actions. Kudo Shinichi is very precious as Xiao Ai's live experiment. She has retrieved a list of organizations taking this drug, and the only person on the list who has become a child is Shinichi Kudo.

"As for the toilet, there is also on the opposite side."

Conan pointed to the outer edge of the opposite side. In the rectangular space, only the light on that side had no problem.

"Well, I'm waiting for Xiao Ai... The light bulbs around here seem to be broken."

The layout of the toilet is relatively private and small, so she was blocked by Xiao Ai, but she had no intention of following in. She lent Xiao Ai the small flashlight she carried with her to prevent the surroundings from being completely dark when it was convenient. .

"Um……"

While Conan answered, he connected this matter with the car tire blowout downstairs.

If the coincidence happened at the same time, it must not be a coincidence. His detective thinking was fermenting, and he looked lost in thought.

"Conan?"

Witnessing Conan's detective-like expression, Winnet was appropriately surprised, "You suddenly look like an adult who is in deep thought."

Conan immediately laughed and fooled.

"No, I just find it strange. Not only the light bulb is broken, but the tires of many cars downstairs are also blown. I was wondering, is there any goblin in this villa?"

"I used to like the story of the mischievous elf. However, this time it must be a coincidence. The villa does not look well maintained."

"That's right!"

Although Conan agreed, a new doubt arose in his heart: How did Winnet know that the villa lacked maintenance?Inferences from the light bulb problem?He felt that to confirm this point, he should also need to observe the accumulation of dust in the villa, etc., but the observation ability of her in front of him should be weaker than ordinary people.

With the sound of flushing water, Xiao Ai opened the door and walked out of the toilet. The moment she saw Conan, her eyes widened slightly.

"Didn't you go out and wait for that uncle to wake up?"

She almost called Winnet by her name just now.

"That Miss Lihua decided to stay here tonight, and the men around her also made the same decision...I'll come back to see how Uncle Kogoro is doing."

Conan explained.

Xiao Ai is not very interested in these things, but the word "overnight" gives her a bad feeling, as if a case is about to happen.

"It looks like we'll have to stay for a while. That uncle got drunk..."

Xiao Ai walked to Conan's side and lowered her voice.

"You'd better pay attention, big detective, maybe there will be a case tonight."

"Uh?"

How can there be such a coincidence!

Conan felt that Xiao Ai was worrying too much.

After escaping from that terrible organization, it was not surprising that her personality became suspicious. Judging from Xiao Ai's usual state, he believed that her mentality was still shrouded in the remnant terror of the organization.

"Let's go back to the banquet hall first, it's strangely dark here, so let's keep your whispers there."

Whisper...

Conan was ashamed, he didn't want to be misunderstood about how good his relationship with Haibara was.

During his time at Didan Primary School, he fully realized how precocious the little ghosts were, completely different from when he was a child... Well, he actually couldn't remember what happened back then.

The three of them returned to the banquet hall, and as soon as they entered the door, they saw the mori Kogoro, who was still awake, surrounded by people.Ms. Lihua and his four suitors, as well as Masaki Kuta, the executive officer of the Shijing Group, and Masumi Jiuye.

Kogoro Mori was about to get up, but Xiaolan pushed him back immediately - he was so drunk that he couldn't stand upright at all.

"No, go back after your wine sobers up!"

Takashi Ichiji, who introduced himself to Maori earlier, said, "That is to say, detective, you stay here and tell us the whole case, okay?"

General Liu Tian followed suit.

"That's a really good idea."

At this time, Sophia, who had regained her senses, also came to Winnet's side and said sorry softly.

Seeing this, Liu Tian proposed again.

"I think the young ladies should stay with us. It's getting late, and the way down the mountain is not easy."
