When the masked man ran to the door, got on his motorcycle and was about to start it, he discovered that both tires of the motorcycle were cut into pieces by the knife.

He gritted his teeth, jumped out of the car, glanced at Conan and Hattori who were about to catch up with him, pulled out a knife from his arms, and stabbed it hard into the tire of Chu Ming's car parked nearby. Watching the tire start to leak air, he pulled out the knife and continued to run forward.

When I was tracking them before, I saw these people get off this car. My car is broken, so you have to run! No one can come to attack me!

Conan was chasing after him and was confused by his sudden move. He paused and almost fell down.

But he quickly reacted and continued to run forward with Hattori.

When Chu Ming finally came out staggering, he saw the three figures in front of him chasing him and they were already so far away that he didn't know how far away they were.

"Hey, why are they running? I obviously have a car, why are these two people running so fast? Isn't driving faster than taking bus 11? Really, they are too arrogant..."

Chu Ming slowly opened the car door and was about to get in when he suddenly realized something was wrong. He took two steps back, looked at the deflated left front tire, and almost cursed out loud.

Damn it!!! This murderer must not be caught!!! The car repairs were all at his expense!!!

Chu Ming angrily made a phone call and asked the people in Kyoto to tow the car to be repaired and send a new car over.

After the car arrived, Chu Ming drove all the way to the location of the nano-micro locator that was originally placed in Conan's body. The one in Akai Shuichi's body exploded last time, so he would have to find time to put another one in.

Chu Ming drove for half an hour before he found the two people collapsed from exhaustion next to the woods.

I really don't know how these people can run so fast. He waited for a while for someone to send a car. How did these three people run for dozens of kilometers? Aren't they tired? How can they be so energetic?

This is what Chu Ming thought, so he asked.

The two men who were leaning against the tree and panting stared at Chu Ming with dead fish eyes. How could they not be tired? Wasn't it that the enemy was faster at running and had no martial ethics and brought equipment with them? They also shot arrows from behind and threw smoke bombs. Who could withstand it?

——So even though they chased so far, they still lost the person.

"Brother Chu Ming, wasn't your tire broken? Why did you change it so quickly?" Conan collapsed under the tree with his limbs spread out, looking at the intact tire with some curiosity.

"… I was just wondering, this murderer is too much! He actually punctured my tire!! I was shocked when I was about to drive after him! If I hadn't asked someone to change cars and wasted some time, I would have caught up with him long ago!" Chu Ming became angrier and clenched his fists, "He'd better not be caught by me!"

"The murderer drew his sword after discovering that his tires were deflated. Probably because he couldn't ride a bike and didn't want us to drive." Hattori also followed behind and saw the murderer's actions. He analyzed silently, "I don't know who deflated the murderer's tires."

Chu Ming paused. So I am the culprit?

Damn, my fist is hard.

……

Chu Ming drove Conan and the others to the gate of Sannoji Temple, and happened to meet Xiaolan, Sonoko, and Kazuha who were out admiring the cherry blossoms during the day and were getting ready to go out.

Xiaolan looked at Conan and Hattori who got off Chu Ming's car, and asked in confusion: "Why are Chu Ming and Hattori here? And Conan, didn't you say you wouldn't go with us to see the cherry blossoms, and made an appointment with the kids nearby to go fishing? Why are you with Chu Ming and the others?"

Hattori smiled and said, "Brother Chu Ming and I came here to play, and we happened to run into Gong—no, we ran into this kid, so we came back together. I heard that you were investigating some riddle, so I wanted to join in the fun and solve the mystery of the paper together."

Listening to Osaka Homophony King's daily exposure of Conan's alias, Chu Ming felt that Hattori could even publish a book called "On Kudo's Ten Thousand Homophony". After all, when Conan was exposed, not a single word from Hattori was innocent.

Seeing Conan showing a fake smile, Sonoko put her hands on her hips, leaned close to Hattori, narrowed her eyes, and said in a weird Osaka accent, imitating Hattori's: "Have you solved the mystery?"

Sonoko originally had a good impression of Hattori. After all, Miss Sonoko has a good feeling about every handsome boy. But although she is a little bit of a fan, when she went out to appreciate the cherry blossoms with Kazuha and the others today, she heard Kazuha talk about Hattori's first love, which made her a little unhappy with this man who was always thinking about the big picture while having his cake and eating it too.

Although she knew rationally that Hattori and Kazuha did not have a confirmed relationship, and it did not matter whether he had a first love or whether he wanted to meet her first love, but Kazuha was Xiaolan's friend, or in other words, her friend Sonoko. She just felt a little sorry for her friend's sincerity, and was just being sarcastic.

Hattori would pay close attention to any clues when he encountered a case, but he didn't understand the hidden meaning of Sonoko's words at all. He scratched his head and said, "No, it's quite difficult. I have no clue at all. What about the uncle? Does he have any ideas?"

"..." Xiaolan fell silent, "Dad was invited by the client to drink wine at a teahouse in Pontocho."

"What!!" Conan and Hattori widened their eyes in shock.

"What! You don't take me with you for such a good thing? I haven't seen it before!" Chu Ming accidentally said what was in his heart.

Chu Ming had heard of Japanese geishas for a long time, but he had never seen one.

Xiaolan blushed: "Brother Chu Ming!!!"

Chu Ming coughed twice and said sternly, "Uncle is really too rude. Let's go, get in the car! Let's go and catch him back!"

“……” Conan and Hattori looked at Chu Ming with indescribable eyes.

Especially Conan, if he remembered correctly, Chu Mingge seemed to be underage!!!

Chu Ming looked at the obscure eyes circling around him and pressed the horn: "I just went there out of curiosity! Don't you have curiosity?"

——(▼ヘ▼)——

As soon as Chu Ming and his companions stepped into the standard room where Maori Kogoro was, they saw Maori Kogoro's face flushed with alcohol. He was clapping his hands in the back row and even shouting, "Great! Great! Miss Chiga Ling is the best in the world!!"

I think you said this to Yoko Okino last time, and said that you were Yoko Okino's number one fan, and that her admiration for you was ultimately misplaced.

Seeing that Maori Kogoro liked it, the client on the side hurriedly asked Chiga Ling to pour wine for Maori. Maori Kogoro raised the wine glass, stretched his neck and looked straight at Chiga Ling, his eyes almost glued to her: "Miss Chiga Ling personally pouring the wine, it makes me feel like I'm in heaven, hehehe..."

Xiaolan looked at her own father's shameful behavior with murderous intent in her eyes: "Then you should stay in heaven and don't come back. Do you want me to give you a ride?"

The wine that Maori Kogoro had just put into his mouth suddenly spurted out, and he sobered up instantly: "Why are you here! ! ! No, how did you know I was here? ! ! "

Chu Ming finally got to see the geisha performance he had been dreaming about. Hearing this, he randomly searched for a scapegoat and pointed at Yuanzi: "Don't underestimate Miss Yuanzi's network of connections. Is it easy for her to track you down?"

...?

Yuanzi looked blankly at Chu Ming who was bragging for her. Didn’t they get the news from the abbot of the temple?

Can this also be considered a network of relationships?
