The Phantom Thief of Heart! But Conan
Chapter 421 Invitation from Moon Shadow Island
"I told you, it's not a problem. I'm a detective after all." Mouri Kogoro, who was holding a mobile phone, spoke in a pretendingly humble tone, with a look of amusement on his face that he couldn't hide.
The investigation of the entire incident was very smooth. I restored the truth of the entire case in a basement, and the worse situation did not happen. It was unanimously praised by the family of the deceased...
The most important thing is that I feel like my brain has become flexible again.
Is it the effect of quitting drinking? Will the results be so quick?
He pondered uncertainly, raised his head, leaned back on the office chair, and turned the chair leisurely.
If you can light a cigarette at this time and take a puff slowly, you will be as happy as a god...
Thinking of this, he looked up regretfully.
"It's useless to look at me." Tangze, who was flipping through the book, replied ruthlessly, "I have made an appointment to learn simple cooking today."
"Really, it's rare to get a well-paid commission. Now it should be time to relax." Touching his forehead, Mouri Kogoro complained unhappily, "Why does it feel like going to school?"
You have to be watched while studying, your grades have to be checked, and you have to attend cram schools that are not sure whether they will be effective...
A generation older, he once again had a serious sense of identity inversion.
"You're right, so the phone call is over, it's time to start." He immediately rejected his idle delusion, closed the book with a snap, and looked over with a sharp gaze, "It's like As you just said, you are a famous detective. Isn’t it natural for a famous detective to solve a case? Is there any need to specially celebrate it? "
Mouri Kogoro, who was speechless for a moment, rubbed the back of his head and wanted to refute that this time was different, but for a while he didn't know where to start.
Yes, he has solved many more complicated and dramatic cases than this one. He really has no position to celebrate such a commission that ended in an ordinary way...
But, but...
"Okay, come on, I've brought all the dishes." Under Mao Lilan's excited eyes, Tang Ze began to roll up his sleeves, "I've explained before that I mainly studied Chinese food, maybe it's not good for me. It’s a little difficult for beginners, but it doesn’t matter, everyone can learn the simplest parts.”
No, no, no one can't even make tomato scrambled eggs, right?
Seeing Karasawa starting to roll up his cuffs in a regular manner, Mouri Kogoro winced secretly.
It doesn't sound simple at all, Chinese cuisine or something...
"Duringling——"
Just when he was about to quit, the cell phone he had just put down rang again.
Mouri Kogoro felt like he was being pardoned. He glanced at the unfamiliar caller ID, quickly grabbed the phone, and quickly answered the phone: "Hello, this is Moori Kogoro..."
As he spoke, he used his eyes to signal Tang Ze, who felt particularly oppressed, to stop leaning closer.
Look, I'm busy with detective work, so it's not like I'm making excuses, right?
However, what came to his ears was not the client's self-introduction or information explaining the case, but a somewhat strange, processed voice.
"There are still two days until the night of the full moon." A hoarse and deep male voice came from the receiver. As soon as he spoke, it was a completely nonsense line, "The investigation fee of 500,000 yen has been remitted to your account. Please be sure to go ahead. Come……"
If they don't agree, they send money directly. This is because they are sure not to let the detective refuse...
Mouri Kogoro frowned slightly.
He always had an instinctive feeling of something bad about the client who was so pretentious and didn't explain anything about the case, and who directly transferred money without saying a word.
People who don't want to cause big troubles wouldn't do this.
"Wait a moment, sir, please wait a moment." Before the other party said the next sentence again, he asked quickly, "Who are you? I'm sorry, could you please tell me what exactly you want to investigate?"
After a husky laugh that couldn't be told whether it was a sigh or emotion, the person on the other side of the phone said, "I'm Keiji Aso from Moon Shadow Island."
As soon as he finished speaking, the other party hung up the phone without waiting for him to ask again.
When the "click" sound of hanging up came, Mouri Kogoro said "hello" twice in disbelief, but there was no way he could receive any response from the terminated call.
"This is really weird..." He frowned and checked the caller information. He tried to call back again. However, judging from the busy signal, the other party either put the receiver aside and did not put it back at all, or simply unplugged the phone line. .
I made up my mind not to call back...
"What's wrong, uncle?" Conan suddenly raised his head and reacted a little faster than Tang Ze, "Is there a new commission?"
He was worried that he had no excuse to contact Joker and ask him about his cooperation with Kaitou Kidd. Now he had a new commission. Didn't he come to the pillow when he was dozing off?
"I don't know." Mouri Kogoro frowned uncertainly and looked at the phone number on the screen of his mobile phone. "He hung up after saying a few words. He said he had transferred 500,000 to my account, and then said that he It’s Keiji Aso of Moon Shadow Island…”
"Moonshadow Island..." Mao Lilan read the name again, "Aso Keiji...ah, that's right."
She turned back, walked to the paper box on the bookcase that contained various letters, rummaged for a while, and quickly took out an envelope.
"That's it. I showed you the letter from last week. Didn't you say that it had no beginning and no end, and you didn't know what it was about, so you ignored it?" She said, opening the envelope and taking it out. received a letter.
Tang Ze glanced at the letter in Mao Lilan's hand with a shocked expression, and when no one noticed his movements, he quickly glanced at Conan's head.
Yueying Island, how could it be Yueying Island?
It stands to reason that this is a case that happened in a very early stage... Although it can't be considered the middle and late stages now, it shouldn't be at this time.
This stitched world where nothing is right is really weird.
In other words, the current version of Conan is already a new version of the ship that has been strengthened by himself. If he encounters the Moon Shadow Island incident, how will he deal with this case that is irreversibly falling into the abyss?
Don't tell me, Tang Ze really became a little curious when asked this question.
Just as he stared at Conan and continued to speculate, Maori Kogoro had already taken the letter that Maori Lan had found, opened it and read it carefully.
"Next full moon night, shadows will disappear again on Moon Shadow Island. Please investigate the matter. Keiji Aso." Looking at the words cut and pasted from newspaper type on the letter paper, Mouri Kogoro read it out while holding back. I couldn't help but complain, "Is it the trend started by the Phantom Thief of Heart? I feel like there are more and more of these collage letters..."
"That's because this is a very common way to avoid investigation, right?" Conan curled his lips indifferently and just asked, "So are you going to take a look, Uncle Maori?"
As he said this, he already took out his mobile phone in anticipation, ready to edit the email sent to joker.
Tang Ze, who silently paid attention to his movements: "..."
Hey, Detective, do you know that you really look like a mole now?
