Conan: Naruto

Saitama Prefecture.

night.

Xiaolan held Kudo Shinichi in her right hand and Dongfang Haoyue in her left hand. Mori Kogoro followed Xiaolan with his hands in his arms, walking in the lively festival venue.

Xiaolan looked at the distant mountain peaks and cheered excitedly:

"Light it up, light it up!

It's the last word! "

Xiaolan turned her head left and right to glance at Kudo Shinichi and Dongfang Haoyue, and then looked ahead.

Xiaolan smiled and said:

"Conan, Haoyue~

Do you know~

This festival is held on three mountains.

Light up the three characters of Tian, ​​Xia, and Yi in order, so as to pray for the best harvest in the world this year~! "

Dongfang Haoyue held up her left hand holding the rabbit balloon, and cheered happily:

"Yes, yes, yes!"

On the surface, Kudo Shinichi replied happily, "Oh~", but actually complained helplessly in his heart:

"This is similar to the burning characters of the big characters in Kyoto...

but……

If Haoyue is so excited, it should be the first time he has seen such a scene~?

maybe……

After all, Haoyue is always optimistic...! "

Mori Kogoro folded his arms and looked around.

He smiled and praised:

"It's nice to be like that sometimes!

Stay in the hotel, and then come to see the festival!

Um! "

Xiaolan happily echoed:

"that is true!

Isn't it~?

Conan ~ Haoyue ~~? "

"Yeah yeah!

It's so much fun here~~! "

Dongfang Haoyue praised excitedly.

"Um…!"

Kudo Shinichi looked up at Xiaolan, then turned his head to look at the rabbit balloon he was holding in his right hand.

Shinichi complained embarrassingly in his heart:

"Without this...

I might be happier...!

Really...!

Think of me as a little devil!

And Haoyue!

He is obviously older than me, why is it so easy to integrate into the identity of a child! ! ! "

suddenly!

Among the crowd, a dark-skinned middle-aged man in a white suit looked at Xiaolan.

The man greeted him friendly:

"Hello, lady."

"Ok?"

Xiaolan stopped and looked at the man in bewilderment.

Holding a small yellow camera in his hand, the man apologized and asked:

"Could you please take a photo for me...?"

Xiaolan enthusiastically agreed:

"OK!

sure! "

The man took a few steps forward, reached out and handed the camera to Xiaolan.

The man kindly reminded:

"Please use this camera."

Xiaolan took the camera and looked up at the man.

The man pointed his right hand at the word "burning" on the mountain in the distance, and earnestly asked:

"Please take that word as the background and take a picture for me."

The man walked towards the best photo spot.

Xiaolan picked up the camera with both hands and posed for a professional photo.

She asked kindly:

"Is it alright~?

I'm going to take a picture~"

"I'm ready."

The man agreed with a smile.

Xiaolan presses the camera button, and the flash lights up, but Kudo Shinichi's rabbit balloon is also photographed into the frame.

Xiaolan embarrassedly reminded:

"Hey...!

A balloon ran into the camera accidentally just now..."

"It's okay, thank you!"

The man walked up to Xiaolan, took the camera with his left hand, held it in front of his left chest, and stared at the camera reminiscently.

The man explained with emotion:

"I'm currently collecting customs records of various local festivals.

This is a photo of those materials. "

Xiaolan asked in bewilderment:

"Eh?

Sir, are you a writer~?

Because you are quite tanned, I thought you might be some kind of athlete~! "

The man touched his chin with his right hand and explained seriously:

"It's the interview tan.

I often go abroad for work.

Oh, right! "

The man remembered something, reached into the lining of his suit with his right hand, took out a blue book, and handed it to Xiaolan.

He kindly invited:

"Maybe you can read this book."

Xiaolan took the book with both hands, put it in front of her body, and carefully looked at the cover.

She embarrassedly confirmed:

"ah…?

Is it really possible~? "

"Sei Shinichi."

Mori Kogoro read out the author's name on the cover of the book curiously.

Sei Shinichi explained with a smile:

"Actually, I used to write novels under the pseudonym Kosuke Imai."

Xiaolan looked up at Shinichi Sei in surprise, and recalled excitedly:

"If Koko Imai counts, I'll know!

When I was in junior high school, I read a lot of his books~! "

Mori Kogoro held his chin with his right hand, and thoughtfully retorted:

"But it's very strange!

That pseudonym... should have been used by Tomo Imatake when he debuted. "

Dongfang Haoyue, who had nothing to do, thought to herself:

"What are they talking about...

I can't understand it at all...!

and……

I always feel that this man has malicious intentions!

From the moment this man greeted me, I opened the system panel and found that the energy points increased rapidly...

This shows that another case will happen! "

Dongfang Haoyue shook her head helplessly, but closed the system panel in satisfaction.

He thought optimistically:

"Why do I think so much!

The increase in energy points is a great thing!

It means that I am one step closer to the world of Naruto~! "

Sei Shinichi explained with a smile:

"Imatake Tomo and I are old friends.

We used to write books together. "

Xiaolan looked at Sei Xuanichi excitedly, and confirmed excitedly:

"Ah~?

I wrote it together with Tomo Imatake~! "

Shi Jingxuan nodded and explained with a smile:

"It's also the two of us who came here today because he won the Naomoto Award.

To celebrate, we're going to drink all night. "

Dongfang Haoyue walked up to Kudo Shinichi's side, and stuck it next to Shinichi's ear.

Haoyue asked in a low voice:

"Conan!

What does Naomoto Prize mean...? "

Kudo Shinichi trembled slightly when he was caught off guard, and explained helplessly in a low voice:

"It's the grand prize for writing a book!"

"Ouch...it's so hot..."

Sei Nobuichi fanned the wind with his hands, a few drops of sweat dripped from his cheeks.

If it's hot, why don't you just take off your suit...?

Kudo Shinichi complained in his heart speechlessly.

After everyone walked around for a certain distance, Nobuichi Shijing walked up to Xiaolan and held out his camera.

Xuanyi apologized and asked:

"This place is also pretty good, can I trouble you to take two or three more photos for me...?"

Xiaolan reached out to take the camera, and enthusiastically agreed:

"Ok~"

After taking several photos in a row, Xiaolan took the last photo, which included a young man in a brown suit together.

Xiaolan looked at the young man in front of her suspiciously.

"Are you Mr. Sei Shinichi?"

The man asked seriously.

"Ah... yes."

Sei Shinichi looked back at the man in bewilderment.

The man took out a police officer's ID from the lining of his suit and showed it in front of Xuan Yi.

The man solemnly introduced himself:

"I am a police officer from Saitama Prefecture, and my surname is Henggou."

Police officer Henggou took back the certificate, and calmly narrated:

"I want to ask you about the case of Mr. Tomo Imatake."

Sure enough, it's another case...

What kind of case will this time...?

It can't be another murder case...

Could it be that Shinichi's Grim Reaper physique can take effect stably in Saitama County! ?

It's really not impossible...!

wrong!

No no no! ! !

Shinichi definitely doesn't have the physique of a god of death!

It is because of the frequent occurrence of homicides that Shinichi discovers homicides frequently!

The occurrence of the murder obviously has nothing to do with Shinichi!

How can I say that Shinichi has the physique of a god of death! ?

Shinichi is my best friend!

Ugh……

I'm such a heinous bad guy.

Dongfang Haoyue glanced at Kudo Shinichi beside him with deep guilt.

???

Xinyi has a small face with big question marks.

He thought curiously:

"Why is Haoyue so guilty...?

Is it...

Could it be that Haoyue ate half of my cream cake last night! ?

No wonder Haoyue gave me five extra grapes at noon today, so it was for this reason!

Damn Haoyue!

Five grapes for half of my custard cake!

but……

Haoyue felt so guilty...

I'd better forgive Haoyue reluctantly~!

Haoyue is my best friend! "
