Conan: Naruto

"Sister Yuanzi, hurry up and follow~"

Dongfang Haoyue, who was following Kudo Shinichi on the left, reached out decisively and grabbed the wrist of Suzuki Sonoko who had just turned around, causing Sonoko to subconsciously exclaim.

At this moment.

Dongfang Haoyue and Kudo Shinichi ran off the bus side by side, holding hands. Suzuki Sonoko and Xiaolan ran side by side behind Haoyue and Shinichi.

Haoyue and Xinyi turned right in unison and ran straight to the taxi parked not far in front of the bus, asserting decisively in their hearts:

"The missing old man, the disk containing secrets, and the man asking about Xiaolan's whereabouts are all intertwined... I will definitely uncover the truth hidden in it."

after a while.

Kitamachi Sales Office.

The taxi stopped at the spacious space where a bus was placed at the Kitamachi Sales Office.

Suzuki Sonoko pressed the door handle of the left rear door of the taxi and pushed the door open with a little force.

Kudo Shinichi, who had stood in front of Sonoko, jumped out of the taxi with Dongfang Haoyue behind him, stood on the cold concrete ground, and looked at the bus not far ahead on the left.

Haoyue and Xinyi were suddenly shocked to see a cleaning staff wearing a light blue uniform and a light blue round hat wiping the front left window glass of the bus.

Kudo Shinichi quickly dragged Dongfang Haoyue towards the open door in the front row of the bus, trying to prevent the cleaning staff from wiping away possible clues.

At this time, Xiaolan stood to the left of Suzuki Sonoko, who had already gotten out of the car and was leaning behind the taxi's back door, and chased after Shinichi and Haoyue with a slightly hurried pace.

Yuanzi, who stayed where he was, glanced at Xiaolan's retreating figure, bent over and looked at the driver who was sitting in the driver's seat of the taxi, and politely asked:

"Mr. Driver, please wait for us again."

"it is good."

The taxi driver looked back at Suzuki Sonoko and nodded lightly.

On the other side, Kudo Shinichi dragged Dongfang Haoyue forward while looking at the cleaning staff who were wiping the glass, and stopped him loudly and urgently:

"Uncle, wait!"

"what?"

The cleaning staff who were bent over and concentrating on wiping the glass were startled involuntarily when they heard the sudden shouting.

He stopped wiping the glass, turned around in surprise and looked at Dongfang Haoyue and Kudo Shinichi who had jumped on the bus, passed behind him, and ran straight to the seats in the back, and stopped him urgently:

"Hey, hey, kids, you can't just run in here!"

"Sorry for disturbing you."

Xiaolan stood behind the cleaning staff in an elusive manner, looked at the cleaning staff sheepishly, apologized concisely, and then chased after Dongfang Haoyue and Kudo Shinichi.

Xiaolan explained without looking back:

"We left something in the car."

"Uh......"

The cleaning staff looked at Xiaolan in astonishment, speechless for a moment.

Dongfang Haoyue and Kudo Shinichi stopped to the left of the double seat where Xiaolan had taken the bus this afternoon. They turned to look at the oncoming Xiaolan and confirmed seriously:

"Sister Xiaolan, is this the seat you told us about before?"

"Yes, I'm just sitting here, there's nothing wrong with me."

Xiaolan stopped in front of Kudo Shinichi, took two steps across, turned around and sat on the window seat, supporting the seats on both sides of her body with her hands, turned her head to look at Dongfang Haoyue and Shinichi, and narrated smoothly:

"I was sitting here and the old gentleman was sitting to my left."

"Other than that, what else do you remember?"

Kudo Shin turned to one side and looked at Xiaolan meticulously.

next second.

"Huh...huh..."

Suzuki Sonoko ran to Dongfang Haoyue, who was on the left side of Kudou Shinichi, and bent over, supporting her legs with both hands. She took a rest with some unsteady breath, looked at Xiaolan, and said nothing.

"Um......"

Xiaolan lowered her head slightly and faced forward, looking down at the back of the seat in front of her. Countless pictures flashed in her head, and a flash of inspiration suddenly occurred.

She recalled with some excitement:

"correct!!

name! "

Before she finished speaking, Xiaolan turned to look at Dongfang Haoyue, Kudo Shinichi and Suzuki Sonoko who looked confused.

Haoyue looked at Xiaolan cutely and repeated without understanding:

"name......?"

"Yes, we wrote names on the glass of the windows."

Xiaolan put her hands on her legs and explained calmly:

"The glass was foggy at that time, so I..."

As Xiaolan spoke, she turned to look at the clean window glass, her expression was startled, and she said in a disappointed tone:

"Already gone..."

"I'll try."

Kudo Shinichi walked up to Xiaolan without any explanation, opened his mouth wide and breathed left and right at the window glass.

The next second, the Maori Ran written by Xiaolan this afternoon and the design written by Shitara Shigekichi appeared on the glass.

Dongfang Haoyue looked away from the glass, looked at Kudo Shinichi in surprise, who was standing back to his original position, and praised sincerely in his heart:

"Shinichi's lung capacity is so good!"

"That's great~"

Xiaolan happily looked at the two rows of furniture and the Chinese characters "Mao Lilan" on the glass, and happily said:

"I really wasn't dreaming at that time~!"

"It turns out Xiaolan is really not confused~~~"

Suzuki Sonoko straightened up and tapped her red lips with her right index finger, looking at Xiaolan with a smile.

Xiaolan looked at Yuanzi, wanting to be coquettish.

suddenly!

"Jingle bell."

It's the crisp ringtone of a cell phone.

"Hey?"

Kudo Shinichi took out the temporarily borrowed spare phone of Dr. Agasa from his pants pocket, pressed the answer button, put it to his ear, and said calmly:

"Dr. Li?"

"Let me hear it~"

Dongfang Haoyue knew that the call was probably from Dr. Ali, so she turned to the right and put her ear close to the phone.

At the same time, Kudo Shinichi casually looked at the traditional Chinese characters floating on the glass and confirmed in surprise:

"Unlocked the code?"

"Correct."

Dr. A Li responded calmly:

"The thing about disk storage...it keeps a double ledger."

"Double ledger?"

Kudo Shinichi's pupils shrank suddenly and his expression became solemn.

Dr. A Li stated calmly:

"You should have heard of Mihua Construction Company. This disk was obtained from the management department of the construction company.

One of the account books recorded on the disk is for external disclosure, and the other account book is for internal use.

Moreover, the disk recorded a detailed list of the construction company's behind-the-scenes deals and transfer of benefits to many politicians. "

"That's it... Doctor, thank you very much."

Kudo Shinichi said goodbye politely, hung up the phone, thought for a moment, turned to look at Dongfang Haoyue, and concluded solemnly:

"Mr. Shitara disappeared out of thin air because he had double ledgers."
