Conan Moslin
Chapter 223 The Duke of Darkness (3) Acquaintance
Before going home in the evening, Conan played two roles. He first ran to the phone booth and told Xiaolan about the invitation letter, but was counter-attacked by Ran Mouri, who took away the promise to go to the movies together.
What movie? There's no way he could go!
Just listening to Xiaolan's voice, he unconsciously did not deny it.
After returning home, Xiaolan did not mention watching the movie. Instead, he discussed with Kogoro Mouri about traveling to Izu Beach.
Although there might not be any reward for going to find someone, Conan took advantage of Kogoro Maori's proud temper and provoked him, "Dr. Agasa said that Uncle Maori will definitely find the organizer! Uncle Maori is so powerful..."
"Besides, Sister Xiaolan also wants to go, right Sister Xiaolan?" He winked at Mao Lilan.
Mao Lilan, who was already somewhat tempted, nodded instantly: "Yes, Dad——"
Since this is a trip my daughter is also looking forward to...
Kogoro Maori calculated the family savings and finally nodded.
Li An’s side is much simpler.
After hearing what Haibara Ai said, she immediately agreed.
Not to mention the so-called special procedures of the organizer, this is after all a rare request that Xiao Ai mentioned besides experimental equipment and items.
Oh, although it seems a bit problematic that Conan is going there, it’s still good to be able to go and have some fun.
Do you want to ask other people?
So Kuria asked Yuko, then Kaito, and also asked Aso Jun if he wanted to come.
Yuko's family already had travel plans and didn't plan to come.
Kaito said that he was planning on sending out another notice soon, which would probably delay Uncle Nakamori, but Aoko didn't really want to go to the beach, so she let it go.
Grandpa Terai was silent for a long time and asked if he could be taken along.
After all, he hadn't met Dr. Agasa for a long time and wanted to catch up with him.
I thought it was over.
the next day.
First of all, I don’t know who tipped off that the two store managers, Qingfeng and Jiamu, were bringing several store employees here for team building.
There's no problem with the store manager going, but the people they bring are a bit troublesome.
The acting team leader who made the report happened to be in Izu recently. He heard the news about these people and planned to rush over to take a look and deliver some information.
He didn't plan to stay longer, after all, he had other work to do.
In fact, Aso Jun originally wanted to come, but her injury had not yet healed, so Aso Shimizu ordered her not to come.
This was something that Masashi rarely forbade. After all, he had been absent for such a long time and his sister was already quite old, so he never paid much attention to Xiaochun. He just chatted with her occasionally and gave her some living expenses.
Even so, Li An checked the hotel reservation information on the computer and was still very upset to find that, whether she knew them openly or secretly, she had one more acquaintance, and then another...
With so many people coming, the murderer would cry his heart out.
"Xiao Ai."
Li An closed the computer and stood up from the sofa.
"What's wrong?" Haibara Ai was doing her homework casually and looked up when she heard the name.
Li An asked with a smile: "The beach is very hot in the summer, do you want to change your look?"
Change your appearance? Disguise?
Huiyuan Ai keenly sensed something was wrong: "Something went wrong with the trip? Then I won't go."
Very decisive.
"My name has already been reported. If I suddenly don't go, someone will come to check."
Even Dr. Agasa's friends will be investigated.
Li An rubbed Xiao Ai's hair and said, "There is news that the program on the internal disk has been exposed, so someone came here."
"It's normal and has nothing to do with you."
"Besides, look at Conan, he has been cheating for so long, isn't he just wearing a pair of glasses?" Li An comforted, "Don't worry, I'm always here."
If he is found, he will not report it.
However, if there are other people around him——
Then let's get a few more people over...
Haibara Ai's radar was triggered unconsciously, but was immediately dispersed by Li An.
So that was settled.
……
Let's look further afield.
In the following peaceful days of packing——
Citron flapped its wings happily as it walked through the streets and alleys, playing with cats and dogs everywhere, and stopped at a park in the evening.
The fountain was gurgling, splashing some water onto the stone steps, leaving deep and shallow marks.
Occasionally, the innocent laughter of children could be heard, adults were taking their children around to play, a few young couples were taking a leisurely stroll, and the elderly were pushing their wheelchairs and moving unsteadily.
Several gray wild cats emerged from the bushes and gathered on a bench near the fountain as if they were familiar with the place. Only one or two broke away from the group, turned around, and lowered their bodies to move towards the fountain.
The white dove that was perched on the stone steps combing its feathers noticed the gaze of its natural enemy, and jumped a few times unconsciously, shook its body to get rid of the clear water that had fallen on it, and then flew calmly onto the branch.
Birds from all over flew in groups and perched on the branches, singing melodious evening songs in the early summer breeze.
At the park entrance, a short, white-haired lady walked in slowly, carrying a convenience store bag.
Beside her, several black cats that slowed down their pace and were wandering around her could no longer restrain their lively nature. They rushed towards the gathered group of cats, biting and playing with them, and soon rolled into a ball.
There were a few small food bowls next to the bench. Although they looked old, they were very clean.
The old man casually placed the bag on the bench and, as usual, poured the pet food into the food bowl with some difficulty.
In the park, a foreign woman who was on the phone saw her actions, hung up the phone and came over, speaking in a poor but enthusiastic way: "Can I help you feed them?"
She swiftly took the bag from the old woman's hand, poured the cat food into the food bowl, and chatted with her in a familiar manner.
"Have you always kept these cats?"
"It was left by my previous tenant..."
"What? That tenant just left them alone? How irresponsible..."
Listening to her accusation, the white-haired grandmother nodded with feeling: "Yes, that person checked out and never came back..."
"If a few people hadn't come to him, I wouldn't have known that he had already contacted my son to cancel the lease."
It looked like she didn't know the man was dead.
"Those people didn't even know he had moved away? Why did they still come to visit?"
"That man's daughter hired a detective to look for him." The old man sighed slightly, "I don't know what he did that made him hide even when his daughter came..."
"I won't hide from my son... He has been visiting me quite frequently lately."
"Hey... I hope his daughter can find him..."
The woman was stunned, and her eyes suddenly became complicated.
After hearing the detective's name from her, the woman calmed down and listened to the old woman chattering about her son, the interesting stories of her new black cats, and suddenly she talked about her partner who had passed away many years ago.
"Miwu——"
The white-haired grandmother stopped reminiscing and lowered her head to talk to the cat.
"Don't worry, I'll take you home now..."
She said goodbye to the woman, picked up the garbage, and then staggered along the path as usual. After walking a few laps, she left at a leisurely pace.
Beside her, several black cats were wandering around, jumping around, picking flowers and grass, playing and fighting, but they were vaguely following her footsteps.
It was as if he wanted to accompany her through the last moments of her life.
The blonde waited for her to leave before picking up the phone again.
"Xiu. I told you, she's really gone."
"You know, on the news..."
The person on the other end changed the subject.
"There's news about a computer virus..."
In the shadows of the trees and flowers, a pair of pure silver pigeon eyes silently watched everything, and the pleasant sunset was reflected in the pupils.
