Conan's grammatical investigator

Chapter 1355 Late Memory

"The location of the school trip is Kyoto?"

"Why didn't I know about this?"

As the "gossip queen", Suzuki Sonoko looked surprised and was shocked that there were campus gossips that she didn't know about.

"The teacher just revealed it yesterday, and few people know about it yet..."

The three male best friends turned to look at Kuroba Kaito, leaned close to his ear and grinned, "I heard that many people succeeded in confessing their love at Kiyomizu Temple~"

"There is also the Jishu Shrine next to Kiyomizu Temple, which is also the most famous shrine for praying for love in Kyoto~"

"How about it? Would you consider joining Mori-san?"

"Kudo?"

I'm going to Kyoto?

Listening to the suggestions of the three people, Kuroba Kaito forced a smile on his face, but he was extremely reluctant in his heart.

I won't be responsible for going to Kyoto and then confessing my feelings to Mouri Ran as Kudo Shinichi, right?

Although there was nothing wrong with confessing his feelings, he did this often, and each time it was with a different woman.

As long as they are women, even elderly aunts and grandmothers can be easily controlled.

But Ran Mouri looks so much like Aoko Nakamori, and confessing to Ran feels like confessing to Aoko Nakamori.

  I can confess to anyone, but not her!

Kuroba Kaito has his own stubbornness.

When Conan, who was at a lower position, heard the suggestions of his best friends, his cheeks also flushed, as red as a bubble teapot.

Confess your feelings to Xiaolan?

Sounds tempting...

After the London incident, the relationship between the two became more subtle.

Although the two childhood sweethearts have experienced many adventures together since they were young, they have almost been in danger several times.

But this time is the most dangerous and the most special.

Maybe it's time to take that step...

At this moment, Sonoko saw Conan thinking about confession and said contemptuously: "Little boy, why are you blushing?"

"I didn't ask you to confess..."

  Conan: Nonsense! Of course it's me!

Conan certainly couldn't let Kuroba Kaito do it for him when it came to such a big thing as confessing his feelings.

  Because once the confession is successful, it may involve kissing~

When it comes to kissing, of course you have to do it yourself!

"cough……"

"Cough, cough, cough!"

At this time, Kogoro Mori on the side finally couldn't stand the explicit conversation between the young people anymore.

  How could my precious daughter be abducted by that boy!

This is absolutely not okay!

I disagree!

He made a series of coughing noises to disrupt the conversation of several people, and successfully attracted the attention of three male buddies.

The three looked at Maori Kogoro and complained, "What is that uncle doing over there? It's so weird..."

"He, he is..."

Just as Sonoko was about to introduce him to everyone as the famous detective Mouri Kogoro, who was also Mouri Ran's father, a whistle blew again in the venue.

beep--

This means that another semi-final match is about to begin.

The three best friends waved and returned to their seats.

Before leaving, a yellow-haired man hugged Kuroba Kaito's shoulders for the last time and said with a smile: "This is a rare opportunity, please think about it carefully~"

"Well, thank you."

In fact, Kuroba Kaito thought in his heart, it’s not my business to consider.

But as soon as the three boys left, Kogoro Mouri, who had been hugging his shoulders and looking depressed, spoke.

"I said no..."

"Xiao Lan is only a sophomore in high school, it's absolutely not possible for her to have a relationship!"

"You can't even confess your feelings!"

"Besides, even if I confess, Xiaolan may not accept it..."

Kogoro Mori's last sentence was somewhat unconfident.

But his words were like a bucket of cold water poured on Conan, who was already beginning to feel distracted.

Suzuki Sonoko, who was sitting next to Kuroba Kaito, wanted to say a few words for the young couple, but then she thought that no matter how staunch a fan of the couple was, she was not as important as their father.

But at this moment, Kisaki Eri, who was sitting next to her, started to criticize Mouri Kogoro.

"But didn't you confess your feelings to me when we were in high school?"

"Why can't it be done to my own daughter?"

As expected, Eri Kisaki is a famous lawyer. She speaks with the most powerful arguments as soon as she opens her mouth, leaving Kogoro Mouri speechless for a moment.

Kisaki Eri continued, "I think Shinichi is a good kid. After all, he was brought up by Yukiko and Yusaku. I feel relieved to leave Xiaolan to him."

These fair words from Kisaki Eri were like a warm current flowing into Conan's heart.

Conan still remembers that when he was a child, it was this Aunt Maori who looked down on him the most. She would go to Yukiko to complain every now and then and scold him particularly harshly.

On the contrary, Kogoro Mori has a more open-minded attitude.

As time goes by, the roles and attitudes of the two people have been reversed.

When Suzuki Sonoko saw Kisaki Eri speaking up for Kudo Shinichi, she was surprised but also secretly happy.

This is what the saying goes: the more the mother-in-law looks at her son-in-law, the more she likes him, right?

After hearing what Kisaki Eri said, Kogoro Mori began to hesitate and his attitude softened.

"It's not that it's completely impossible..."

"It's just that it's a little early now..."

Hibiki Eri continued to persuade, "It's not an engagement, it's just a confession, what's the point of saying early or late."

After that, Kisaki Eri turned to look at Kuroba Kaito and said softly: "Although I agree with you and Xiaolan, what Kogoro said also makes sense. We can't let our studies be affected by love now..."

"And don't do anything out of line before you go to college."

Kisaki Eri's second sentence returned to her usual stern tone.

  What is crossing the line?

dddd.

Conan blushed and nodded.

Seeing this scene, Suzuki Sonoko twitched her lips and rubbed Conan's head, "Why are you nodding, little brat? What does this have to do with you?"

nod?

Kisaki Eri looked at Conan in confusion, only to see that the bespectacled boy had a red face and affectionate eyes.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Kuroba Kaito quickly took over the conversation.

"Don't worry, Auntie."

"I will make Xiaolan happy..."

Such bold words shocked Kisaki Eri.

But then she smiled and nodded, indicating her agreement.

Although Kogoro Mori still hugged his shoulders with an unhappy look on his face, he didn't say anything else, which was considered as his agreement.

At this time, the whistle on the field sounded.

"competition is over!"

"The winner is Haido High School, Wada Haruna."

With the referee's decision, the two contestants for the finals were finally locked in, namely Mao Lilan from Teitan High School and Wada Haruna from Haido High School.

These two can be considered "old enemies". In previous regional karate competitions, they always met in the finals.

Karate is the traditional strength of Haido High School; after all, it is Kyogoku Makoto's alma mater.

The strength of the two is almost the same, and there is no situation where one side crushes the other.

This situation is often the time to test on-the-spot performance.

To put it bluntly, the competition of on-the-spot performance is to see who has better luck. In terms of luck, Mao Lilan has never been afraid of anyone, so Mao Lilan wins every time.

But she herself didn't realize it.

Before going on stage, Mao Lilan, wearing protective gear, was cheering herself up.

This time not only are my parents here to watch the game, but Shinichi is here too, so I absolutely cannot make a fool of myself...

beep--

At the referee's whistle, Mao Li Ran and Wada Haruna walked from the rest areas on both sides to the fighting area respectively.

"Next up is the finals for the girls' high school group!"

"Red side, Aipado High School player Wada Haruna."

"Blue team, Teitan High School, contestant Mao Lilan."

"Game start!"

Following the referee's order, the two opponents began to confront each other.

Since they had fought each other more than once, they knew that the other party was very strong, so they did not attack immediately.

After a few seconds, Wada Yona chose to take the first step.

She swung her fists left and right, hitting Mao Lilan's face continuously.

Seeing this, Mao Lilan's pupils shrank and she quickly raised her hands to defend herself, but was forced to the edge of the platform by the force of the fist.

This scene made everyone on the stage sweat for him.

However, at the moment when there was a gap in Wada Haruna's attack, Mao Li Ran seized the opportunity to counterattack Wada Haruna using her best right straight punch.

Although this punch was blocked by Wada Haruna, the force was no weaker than that of a man and forced Wada Haruna to take a step back.

At this time, Mao Lilan took advantage of the sufficient distance to perform her kick.

"ah!"

Two consecutive kicks with left and right legs forced Wada Haruna to retreat repeatedly.

Before she could raise her arms to block, Mao Lilan launched another spinning side kick, aiming directly at Wada Haruna's head.

This time, Wada Yona was unable to defend herself and was kicked in the cheek. She staggered for a moment, but she managed to stand firm in the end.

Fortunately, she was protected by armor, otherwise she would have lost her combat effectiveness.

"Very good, well done..."

"As long as you maintain your advantage, you will win!"

In the stands, Kogoro Mouri clenched his fists and cheered for his daughter.

Kisaki Eri beside her was also murmuring words of advice.

Karate matches are not as violent as boxing matches. Even if you don't knock down your opponent, you can still win as long as the time is up and the number of hits is counted.

And most of the women's competitions are decided in this way.

Just now, Mao Lilan's spinning side kick hit her opponent's cheek, winning her a point.

Even if the situation remains deadlocked until the end of time, Mao Lilan will definitely win.

Kuroba Kaito, who was standing next to him, couldn't help but feel a little uneasy when he saw the amazing fighting power of Mouri Ran.

  Is this girl so strong in fighting ability?

If I were to be found to be an imposter, I would be in big trouble...

Uncle, come quickly!

Although Kuroba Kaito once impersonated Kudo Shinichi in London, he was abroad at that time, so some abnormal behavior is understandable.

Now that he has returned to the daily environment that Ran Mouri is familiar with, Kuroba Kaito might be suspected if he does anything slightly different from before.

At this time, he could only hope that Qin Zhibo would come quickly and take him away in the name of investigating the case.

This was also the way of exit that he discussed with Qin Zhibo last night, so as to avoid being entangled by Mao Lilan and unable to escape.

However, at this moment, the situation on the field took a sharp turn for the worse.

Wada Haruna was kicked, and not only did she lose a point, but her head was also a little dazed by the force of the kick.

In a hurry, she responded with a few painless attacks.

These punches and kicks were easily caught by Mao Lilan, and the middle gate of her body was opened, giving her a chance to end the match with one punch.

Just as Mao Lilan was about to raise her hand to punch, the opponent in her field of vision suddenly blurred and was replaced by Kudo Shinichi's face.

And his fist was about to hit Kudo Shinichi in the face.

Shinichi...

Just as she was stunned, Wada Haruna, who had reacted, had already punched Mouri Ran in the face.

This time, Mao Lilan didn't even have time to defend herself. Her body froze in place without even taking any action to relieve the force, and she took the full force of the punch.

Then he lost his balance and fell to the mat.

"stop!"

Mao Lilan was knocked to the ground and the referee immediately stopped the game.

This shocked everyone in the stands, and they all showed surprised expressions.

Even Conan, who was an amateur, could see that this was clearly an opportunity for Mouri Ran to attack, but he just stood there and let his opponent punch him in vain.

Xiaolan...

Suzuki Sonoko, who noticed that something was wrong with Xiaolan, quickly stood up and shouted, "Come on! Xiaolan!"

"Focus! Show your fighting spirit!"

Suzuki Sonoko didn't care about her image at all and attracted the attention of everyone in the audience.

But even with such enthusiastic encouragement, Mao Lilan couldn't hear it at all.

Her pupils widened as she stared at the gloves in her hands, but what emerged in her mind was the scene of herself punching Kudo Shinichi one after another at Stonehenge in England.

Why should I play Shinichi?

Shinichi was injured because of my fist...

  Why it came out like this?

Mao Lilan was lying on the ground with her head buried so deep that she was unaware of the referee's question as to whether she wanted to continue the game.

Conan realized something was wrong and quickly stood up from his seat and ran to the stadium area below the stands.

When he ran to Mouri Ran's side, he saw that her eyes were filled with tears, which were dripping onto her white karate uniform.

Seeing this, the referee knew that the game could not continue.

"competition is over!"

"The winner is Haido High School, Wada Haruna!"

The moment the game was announced to be over, the whole audience cheered loudly.

This was a glorious moment for the winner. Members of the Haido Karate Club immediately rushed onto the field, surrounding Wada Yona and cheering.

Only Wada Haruna was looking at Mao Li Ran lying on the ground, her eyes full of confusion.

As a player on the field, she knew exactly what had happened.

If it weren't for that moment when Mao Lilan hesitated, I wouldn't have won so easily.

"Hey!"

"Xiaolan, why are you crying?"

"Do you need to go to the hospital?"

At this time, Kogoro Mori and Eri Kisaki also hurried over from the stands and surrounded their daughter, thinking that it was just physical pain.

But Mao Lilan slowly raised her head and looked at Kuroba Kaito beside her with tearful eyes.

"Shinichi..."

"I remembered..."

"I beat you with my own hands at Stonehenge in England."

Hearing this, Conan's face was shocked.

Oops!

She remembered!
