Chapter 148

In the taxi, Conan rested his chin in thought. The case has gradually become clear, but they still need more clues to where they tied the old man...

Suddenly, the portable mobile phone in his pocket rang, and Conan quickly took it out and put on the earphones.

"Xinyi, where are you now?"

As soon as the phone was connected, there was a voice of inquiry from the other side.

"Eh? What's the matter, Dr. Ari?"

Conan asked a little puzzled, did the doctor find some clues?
"There's something I forgot to tell you just now."

"What is it? Are there any other clues?"

"No, Xiao Ai saw me cracking the disk password for you before, and asked me what I was doing, so I told her about the case."

"Oh, so what?"

"Then she asked me Mr. Shuiquan if he knew that you were dragging Yuanzi to handle the case..."

"Uh……"

"Then she went to the living room to call Mr. Shuiquan."

"..."

"Xinyi? Are you okay?"

"...I'm fine, I'm fine, doctor." Conan smacked his lips, "I had a suggestion to call Shang Shuiquan... But Sonoko refused..."

"...It's good that you know what's in your mind, so let's do it like this, you'll be busy first."

beep~
Count?What number?

busy?
Conan looked at the phone in his hand, feeling like a light was on his back.

There should be no problem?I did propose to call Shang Shuiquan, and instead of taking the two girls to a dangerous place, I took a taxi to check at the stop sign where the old man got off.

So... there should be... no problem... right?
Suddenly, the phone rang again, and Conan frantically connected it again.

"Doctor, what's the matter?"

"Where are you?" It wasn't Dr. Ali's voice that came from inside, but Gu Shuiquan's voice.

His voice was no longer as calm as it was when he answered Hui Yuan Ai's phone call, it was cold and harsh.

"Eh? What's the matter? I'm in a taxi."

"Turn back immediately."

"Eh? What... what's wrong?"

"You left two girls behind and let them be in danger, what do you say?"

"Uh... no, I'm on my way to investigate the clues. This side may be dangerous, so I left them at the bus station. It should be safer there, right? And, before I left, I told Xiaolan to call Uncle Mori and Police Officer Megure..."

"There is danger there, turn around and go back immediately." Gu Shuiquan ignored his explanation, said coldly, and then hung up the phone.

Conan's eyes were blank, his face was dazed, and he scratched his head. In the end, he honestly asked the driver to turn around and go back.

However, the uncle driver shook his head and refused.

"why not?"

"Little brother, look for yourself, this kind of narrow one-way street, how do you let me turn around?" The uncle driver pointed helplessly.

"Uh……"

……

Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko came to the lobby of the bus station. The former took out a phone card from the newly purchased bag, inserted it into the public phone, and then handed the bag to Suzuki Sonoko, who was on the side, and made a call.

Suzuki Sonoko took the bag, carried it on her body, and looked around boredly.

"Moses, Dad, listen to me..."

"Ah? What's the matter? I... I'm already drinking, so don't call me, you guys play first." Maoli Kogoro's inarticulate voice came over.

"It's me, Dad, listen to me..." Mao Lilan's forehead was bulging with veins.

"Huh? Okay, let's have another cup~"

Mao Lilan: (#`O')
"Forget it, he's already drunk and unconscious. I'd better call Police Officer Mumu." Mao Lilan sighed, hung up the phone, and said helplessly.

"Moses, is this Police Officer Megure?..." Police Officer Megure was obviously much more reliable than Mori Kogoro. He immediately answered the phone and listened patiently to Mao Lilan's description of the case.

A few minutes later, Mao Lilan hung up the phone again.

"How is it?" Suzuki Sonoko leaned over and asked.

"Officer Mumu said he would come as soon as possible, and asked me to stay by the phone and contact me at any time."

"Is that so... eh..." Suzuki Sonoko sighed.

"What's wrong with you?" Maurilan asked curiously.

"I did a stupid thing before, and now I don't dare to face Ah Quan..." Suzuki Sonoko said quietly, resting his head on Mao Lilan's shoulder.

"What did you do?"

"Well... Anyway, it's just a stupid thing that makes me feel very ashamed..." Suzuki Sonoko said hesitantly.

"Eh—?" Mao Lilan became interested, "Tell me~"

"No~Yes~" Suzuki Sonoko groaned, hanging himself on Mao Lilan, "How will this matter end?"

"If you don't tell me the specific situation, I can't give you any advice..." Mao Lilan touched Suzuki Sonoko's head.

"Hmph~" Suzuki Sonoko hugged Mao Lilan tightly, and pressed his head against her neck.

"Ah, really, let me go, the weather is very hot." Mao Lilan pushed her head helplessly.

"Oh~ you actually despise me, Xiaolan, at night, everyone has finished taking a bath, and they accompanied you to find some old grandfather who disappeared mysteriously. You actually despise me~" Suzuki Sonoko complained pompously.

Mao Lilan supported her forehead, she was really powerless to resist her best friend's shamelessness.

"Sonoko, why are you still wearing stockings?"

"Huh? What's the matter?" Suzuki Sonoko let go of Mao Lilan, crossed his legs, and looked at the black stockings on his body.

"You're wearing leather shoes..."

"Ah! That's right, if you wear silk stockings and leather shoes, your feet will..." Suzuki Sonoko was startled, "It should be too late to take off the stockings now, right?"

"Probably..." Mao Lilan said uncertainly. They had been running for a long time. The weather was hot and they were sweating profusely. It was probably hopeless.

Suzuki Sonoko hastily leaned against the wall and took off his shoes, then reached out to take off the stockings.

However, the previous scene suddenly appeared in his mind.

"This thing is precious."

"It's precious in every sense of the word. So, you have to wear it every day."

"Your safety is very important, much more important than you think. Therefore, you must remember to wear it every day and protect yourself."

"I've never seen Brother Shuiquan in a panic, and I don't want to see him like that either."

Suzuki Sonoko's movements stopped, she slowly lowered her feet, and put on her small leather shoes.

"What's wrong?" Molly asked strangely.

"It's nothing, it's just that I suddenly don't want to take it off, the smelly feet are the smelly feet." Suzuki Sonoko said with a gentle smile.

"???"

"The room is too stuffy, you wait here first, I'll go outside to get some air." Suzuki Sonoko swept away the gentleness just now, said with a playful smile, then turned and walked outside.

"Eh??? Wait, Sonoko, aren't you too cunning?"

Ignoring Mao Lilan's complaints, Suzuki Sonoko opened the glass door, and fresh air greeted him.

It had just rained during the day, and a smell of mud and grass permeated the surroundings.It's just that the rainy days of this season are still too hot and humid, and even the air outside makes people feel stuffy.

She walked down the steps, stood on the open space and stretched, not noticing that a figure behind her was quietly approaching...
