After the two of them had been together for a long time, they had to deal with each other.
Seeing that Gin had finished the call, Vodka dared to speak cautiously: "Brother, why do you have to make things so complicated? Can't you just do it directly?"
"If it was an ordinary bug, it wouldn't be so troublesome, but the boss of the organization still needs Xue Li's research and development results, so we must be more cautious."
Take the cigarette out of your mouth and gently shake off the ash, Gin reveals a mouthful of shiny white teeth. "And don't you think that giving the prey a chance to escape first, and then taking a final bite to eat it, is such a pleasant feeling~"
"Brother is indeed a brother, I admire you!"
Although he didn't quite understand what Gin was saying, it didn't stop Vodka from admiring him like a torrent of water.
Just as Vodka was cheering, a message suddenly flashed through his mind, so he hurriedly reported to his mighty and domineering brother Gin: "By the way, brother, I heard that Absinthe came back some time ago."
Hearing this news, Gin's almost unchanging expression showed a hint of doubt: "Why did she suddenly come back when she was not filming a movie in Milijian? And why didn't she report back to the organization as soon as possible."
Vodka said naively: "I don't know, Absinthe left a message saying that she hasn't been back for a long time, so I want to go around first. I guess I can't report back until tonight."
"Humph, that woman is getting more and more presumptuous."
A cold light flashed in his eyes, and a cruel arc appeared at the corner of Gin's mouth. "In that case, let's go back and prepare a special welcome ceremony for Absinthe."
"Yes, brother."
Nodding hurriedly to show that he understood, Vodka drove away.
———————————————
"Another bottle! Xiaolan! Go get another bottle for your father! I want more!"
Kogoro laid on the desk and took a big gulp of beer. After finishing it, he threw the beer into the corner, which was now full of empty beer cans.
Xiaolan said worriedly, "Okay, Dad, you've had enough. Let's stop here."
"Pah!"
Kogoro slapped the table hard, then stood up staggeringly. "Who... who drank too much! I'm not drunk, I can still... continue... hiccup! It's not fun at home, I'd better go out and drink... drink to my heart's content..."
"Swoosh!"
Just as Kogoro was about to take a step, he suddenly felt a slight sensation between his eyebrows, and then the scene in front of him suddenly spun around.
"Hey... Hey... Why am I drunk...?"
After performing a dazzling dance, Kogoro sat down on the office chair and fell asleep.
"Finally, it's quiet."
Putting down the anesthesia watch, Conan took out the cotton in his ears and finally heard the sounds outside.
Xiaolan said with some embarrassment; "I'm sorry, Shinichi, Dad is not like this usually. I don't know why he is..."
"By the way, Xiaolan, do you know why your uncle quit his job as a criminal policeman?"
"Hey?"
Hearing this question, Xiaolan was obviously stunned for a moment, and then slowly shook her head after a while. "I can't remember it clearly, but I remember that my parents had a big fight at the beginning, and they separated not long after."
"It seems that there should be some story behind this." Conan sat with his legs crossed, then held his chin with his left hand and began to reason.
"Knock, knock, knock."
"Excuse me, excuse me."
Just as Conan was trying to figure out what might have happened to Kogoro, the door of the office was knocked on and an old man with white hair and beard walked in.
"Hello, this should be the Mori Detective Agency, right?"
Ran quickly stood up and said, "Yes, this is the Mori Detective Agency. Do you have any commission?"
The old man nodded slightly, "Yes, that's why I suddenly came to visit."
Conan: "Please have a cup of tea first, and we'll sit down and talk."
"Okay...but what's the matter with this young man?" The old man pointed at the drunk Kogoro, his eyes full of confusion.
Ran was embarrassed, and at the critical moment, Conan stepped out to explain, "Uncle, this is just a day after staying up late to relax.
I have just finished a commission, so I am taking a break now."
"Yes, yes, yes! I am taking a break to recover my strength."
Ran hurriedly followed Conan's words, and then pushed Kogoro and his office chair into the bathroom, and then closed and locked the door smoothly.
Old man...
Ignoring this little episode, the old man sat down and began to tell the story.
"My name is Ochiai, and I am currently the director of the Beika Art Museum. Some time ago, our employee Kubota disappeared."
As he said this, Director Ochiai took out a photo from his pocket and put it on the table. Xiaolan and Conan leaned over to look at it, and saw that the photo showed a young man with shifty eyes.
And looking at Kubota in the photo, Conan frowned slightly. He didn't know if it was his illusion, but he always felt that the person in the photo looked familiar.
After looking at the photo for a while, Xiaolan looked up at Director Ochiai and asked, "So you want us to help you find Mr. Kubota? "
"That's not the case. Kubota is always elusive. He will suddenly show up from nowhere after a while. What I really want to entrust is this matter."
The next moment, Director Ochiai took out a piece of white paper from his pocket and spread it out. On it were words cut from a newspaper.
[Those who defile art will be punished by heaven and will not be reborn. I will follow the way of heaven and deal with all the evil spirits tomorrow!]
The signature is yesterday.
"To be honest, our art museum is about to be acquired as an international hotel due to funding problems. I think maybe a guest who really loves art is dissatisfied, so he may take some extreme actions."
Xiaolan said solemnly: "This is already a threat. May I ask if you have reported it to the police? "
Director Ochiai said with embarrassment: "I actually wanted to report it to the police yesterday, but the owner of our art museum, Manaka, said that it was just a boring prank. If I report it casually, it will only make people laugh and affect the future value of the hotel. So he didn't allow me to call the police. I had no choice but to ask for the help of Detective Mori."
After hearing this, Xiaolan and Conan looked at each other, and then turned their heads to look at the bathroom where the snoring sound came from.
Okay!
Kogoro is definitely not going to be counted on for a while now, and the date of the threatening letter is today, so now we have to...
