Conan: I'm Really Not a Model Worker at a Winery

Get out of the car one by one Moori father and daughter and Conan saw Lie and Hiroki at a glance.

Mao Lilan was very pleasantly surprised: "Mr. Lin and Hiroki! You are already here?"

"Yeah~ because there's nothing to do." Lie showed a sunny smile, "And I'm very excited to be able to attend such a famous architect's tea party~"

Sawada Hiroki: "..."

Who said you can't be happy without bombs?

"This...in fact, Professor Teiji Moritani invited Shinichi." Mao Lilan smiled a little embarrassedly, "But because he couldn't come because of something, we let us go instead of him... I thought it would be better to call Mr. Shanglin Come with Hiroki."

"So that's how it is..."

Lie glanced at Conan without a trace.

Regarding this matter, Lie and Hongshu actually knew about it a long time ago.

Since Conan has a mobile phone, Noah has added another task-monitoring Conan.

Fortunately, Xie upgraded Noah's configuration not long ago. Now Noah can release less than [-] avatar programs at one time, and it will not cause the program to freeze... The premise is that there is a signal.

Therefore, both Lie and Hiroki knew that Conan often used a voice changer to pretend to be his original voice to call Xiaolan.

As soon as they entered the courtyard in front of the villa, the owner of the mansion, Teiji Moritani, came out to greet them in person.

The famous master builder doesn't seem to be putting on any poses at all, and his upturned mustaches make him look a little bit interesting.

After knowing that the five of them came here instead of Kudo Shinichi, Moriya Teiji expressed regret:

"It's such a pity, I still want to ask that famous high school student detective..."

"If it's a detective, my father is also a detective." Mao Lilan immediately confessed her father enthusiastically, "And this Mr. Chi Yanlin and these two children are very good at reasoning!"

If it's just Conan's high IQ that makes Xiaolan suspect that he is Shinichi...

With the addition of Hiroki, and a Rei who occasionally showed stronger strength than Shinichi Kudo, Xiaolan didn't think there was any problem with Conan until now.

After hearing Xiaolan's introduction, Moritani Teiji was a little puzzled - because only Kogoro Mori was often featured in the newspaper, and he had never heard of Lie's name.

However, he suppressed his doubts and said with a warm smile: "So he is a famous Maori detective, I have admired him for a long time!"

Mori Kogoro immediately scratched his head in embarrassment: "Ah! Where is it, it is my honor to be able to participate in your afternoon tea..."

After a few words of non-nutritive pleasantries, Teiji Moriya led them to the back garden, where the afternoon tea was held.

Moriya Teiji's mansion is a completely symmetrical design, whether it is the front yard, the back garden, or the main building.

Even the name has been changed to a completely symmetrical font. It has to be said that his symmetrical aesthetics have reached the point of obsessive-compulsive disorder.

After the afternoon tea started, Teiji Moriya asked a question to Kogoro Mori:

"Mr. Maori, because recently I was helping a company set up by three people deduce a network password... I think if you are a detective like you, you will be able to solve it, right?"

Maori Kogoro:"……"

Every time the case is solved, those two brats have nothing to do with him... But everyone has said so, it seems a bit embarrassing to refuse, what's the matter?

Kogoro Mouri, who was praised so much, hesitated for a moment, but coughed again: "In this case...Mr. Lin, I'm counting on you!"

Lie who was pushed out blinked his eyes: "Oh! Okay~ What is the puzzle of the password?"

Reasoning?He has read Ke Duo's novel recently, and he will definitely be able to solve it!

Moriya Emperor II: "...?"

This Mori Kogoro doesn't look as powerful as the newspapers said at all, dare not even take up this challenge?

How did Teiji Moriya know that Mori Kogoro has become a habit of paddling... At most, he will seriously reason a few times when encountering a case. He no longer wants to embarrass himself with this kind of riddle—every time he goes out, Mr. Lin will bring a bunch of brains. Turn around to test him and Conan, he is tired.

"The password is a total of five pseudonyms, which are composed of the names of these three people... Everyone has half an hour."

Moriya Teiji sent a note to everyone who came to participate in the afternoon tea, on which were written the names, ages and dates of birth of the three people, as well as hobbies and blood types...

Afterwards, Teiji Moritani put down an hourglass, then walked aside to pick up a match and start lighting a cigarette.

Although Mori Kogoro did not accept the challenge, he also got the piece of paper for the puzzle...

Conan and Hiroki watched a picture with Mao Lilan.

"Oyamada Rikki, Kongfei Sasuke, this dug two..."

Conan looked at the note and thought, "It doesn't matter from the name..."

"The blood types are A, B, O, and there is no similarity..."

Hiroki Sawada pinched his chin in thought.

Lie looked at the note, thought for a while, and leaned over to the two children, "Conan, Hiroki, do you think it's a zodiac sign?"

Conan was taken aback: "Zodiac?"

"That's right, their birth years happen to be in descending order, 31, 32, 33..." Lie scratched his head.

This year is calculated according to the emperor's reign time, and he will be out of line with the current time for a while.

But Hiroki Sawada and Conan both had bright eyes.

"That's right! They are Shenhou, Youji, and Xugou!"

"It's Momotaro! (mo/mo/ta/ro/u)"

Hiroki and Conan shouted the answer to Teiji Moritani almost in unison.

All the guests who were still thinking hard looked at them in surprise.

This is less than 3 minutes, right?So fast?

Moriya Teiji turned around in surprise, "Oh! You guys figured out the answer so quickly?"

"Not at all~ Thanks to Uncle Lin's reminder."

Conan told the secrets of the zodiac with a cute face, because the rooster, monkey, and dog happened to be the three underlings of Momotaro, and the name Momotaro happened to be composed of five pseudonyms, so he and Hiroki thought of it right away.

The puzzle was solved, Moriya Teiji was very happy, and he said that he would invite them to visit his exhibition room in return.

however……

On the way to the exhibition hall, Lie leaned into Hongshu's ear blankly:

"Hiroki, what is Momotaro? Why is he carrying a chicken monkey dog? Is it a circus performance?"

Chapter 145 The Stolen Gunpowder Magazine

When Lie asked questions, he didn't deliberately lower the volume, and everyone who heard his questions slipped on their feet.

Sawada Hiroki looked at him in bewilderment: "Uncle, you don't know Momotaro?"

Lie blinked: "Why should I know Momotaro?"

Although he felt like he had heard this name before, he still didn't understand the relationship between Momotaro and the zodiac...

Even Kogoro couldn't listen to it anymore, so I helped him explain: "Momotaro is a folk story, and basically children know it..."

"That's it."

strong clear.

Conan narrowed his eyes suddenly and asked, "Isn't Uncle Lin Japanese?"

I don't know this kind of well-known folklore, Mr. Lin is a little suspicious.

"I am." Lie replied very naturally, "But I went abroad more than 20 years ago, and I came back a few years ago to pick up Hiroki. I have never heard this kind of little story told to me before."

Conan was slightly taken aback.

Mr. Yuan Lai has been living abroad before?

But something is wrong... He remembered that Hiroki said before that he also lived in Japan, and then moved to the United States...

They stopped living in Japan more than 20 years ago. How could Hiroki’s relatives entrust Mr. Lin to take care of them?

After thinking for a while, Conan finally came to his senses, and was speechless for a moment.

Why should he think about other people's family affairs...

"This is here, please enjoy your visit."

While speaking, Moriya Teiji had brought the five of them to the exhibition hall.

Almost all the walls in the exhibition hall are photographs of buildings.

"Amazing! Are all these buildings designed by you?" Xiaolan has always been interested in artworks, and she couldn't help but marvel after seeing these works.

"That's right...it includes some of my works before I was 30 years old, but my works at that time were not mature enough, so don't read the previous ones..."

Moritani Teiji showed no mercy to his own works.

Most people don't criticize their own works...especially those who are highly appreciated by outsiders. From this perspective, Teiji Moritani is still an honest person.

Many architectural pictures hanging on the walls are villas or public buildings of rich people, such as Mihua Municipal Building, Canal Bridge, Art Museum, etc...

But without exception, every building looks completely symmetrical.

And Xiaolan also saw the picture of the Mihua Municipal Building: "So this building was also designed by you?"

Moritani Teiji looked at the East Building standing outside the window, with an indiscernible disgust in his eyes, and said with a smile on his face:

"Yeah, but this is also one of my early designs..."

"That's really a coincidence." Mao Lilan said happily, "I made an appointment with Xinyi to watch a movie there on the [-]rd of next month..."

Conan staggered.

It's over, he has already forgotten about it...

Because May [-]th is Kudo Shinichi's birthday, Xiao Lan specially chose to watch a movie with him at midnight on May [-]rd.

"May [-]rd?" Teiji Moritani narrowed his pupils and put on a friendly smile on his face, "That place is really suitable for couples to play together. It seems that you and Kudo-kun have a good relationship."

Faced with such a kind Moriya Teiji, Xiaolan also lost some vigilance in her heart, and also mentioned the person she likes, so she unconsciously talked a little more.

Hearing this, Kogoro Moori clenched his fists, wishing he could grab Shinichi Kudo and beat him up now...

Conan began to think about how to break the appointment four days later and escape Xiaolan's wrath...

Hiroki, who knew about this, looked at Conan meaningfully, wondering what he would do.
