Conan: Science Cartoonist Kudo Yuji

Chapter 2 The Phantom Thief Gentleman’s Performance Failed

"Yuji, Yuji..." Shinichi ran home, quickly climbed up the stairs and shouted to his brother: "Come and help me!"

Sitting at the desk in the room, Yuji, who was happily enjoying the dorayaki bought by his mother, raised his head in astonishment.The moment my brother rushed into the room, half of his fingers were still sucking in his mouth.

"Knock on the door when you enter the room! Knock on the door! Why did you come in in such a hurry!" The angry kindergarten child was very dissatisfied with his ugly appearance.

"Sorry, sorry, I'll come in again." Shinichi apologized and went out of the room to knock on the door again.

"Boom boom boom, boom boom boom."

Yuji, who wiped his fingers with a paper towel, took a sip of the coffee on the table and asked calmly, "Who is it?"

"Hurry up and open the door. I don't want to play pretending to be drinking with you. I really have something important to discuss with you!"

Yuji sighed, opened the door as if he couldn't help his brother, and then asked loudly: "So, have you encountered any difficulties again? Nobita."

"I'm Shinichi! Not this... Sonoko said that there are terrible noises in the school on full moon nights, and there are monsters wearing strange hats..."

Yuji picked up the leftover plates and teacups and walked down the stairs, then washed the dishes while listening to his brother's words.

"So, you are obviously scared too, but because you boasted so much in front of sister Xiaolan, you have to go to Didan Primary School to find out the truth tonight?"

Putting the washed dishes back into the cupboard and looking at the darkening sky outside, Yuji sat on the sofa and folded his hands, thinking.

"Oh! It's Sherlock Holmes' reasoning method!"

"Shut up, thinking is important, not posture."

Full moon, school and monsters.Damn it, although I have watched Conan many times in my previous life, I only remember the main plot and some classic plots, and I can't remember this at all.But judging by the location of Didan Elementary School, it might just be the teacher who made some pranks.Yuji relaxed his tense body and made up his mind.

"Okay, I'll go with you!"

The light of the cold moon shines on the dark road, and the little girl's voice sounds very crisp and cute.

"Wait. Shinichi, Yuji, let's forget it." Xiaolan followed behind the two brothers in fear, to be precise, behind Shinichi.

Shinichi walked handsomely with his hands in his trouser pockets, and then put on an impatient expression: "So I asked you to go back first. If you sneak out so late, someone will get angry again if you are found. I will go alone Find out who he really is."

Well, if it hadn't been for that scene at home, Yuji would really have thought that his brother wasn't afraid at all.His acting skills are so good. He asked Xiaolan to go back because he was afraid that he would make a fool of himself, so the little boy who has a crush on someone else just likes to pretend to be handsome in front of girls. Yuji silently complained in his heart.

Xiaolan walked to Yuji's side, she seemed very reluctant: "But let you go alone, what if you are eaten by a monster? Right, Yuji."

"Yes, yes." Yuji saw his brother stop, then turned around and taunted Xiaolan.

"Fool, how can there be monsters in this world?"

You are actually very scared, right? Even though your legs are already like those of a newborn goat, you are still saying words of encouragement to yourself, just to make Xiaolan not be afraid. You really like her.

In Tedan Elementary School in summer, cicadas were singing one after another. Shinichi first climbed up the railing gate of the school gate, and then together with Xiaolan who was on the ground, he hugged Yuji, and the three of them entered the school like this.

"The doors are locked, you can't get in."

Xinyi led the two of them to a window, stepped on the flowerpot and pulled it open, and explained with his back to Xiaolan: "I unlocked this place before returning home from school, and the school guard uncle checked it very loosely." .”

In the corridor, Yuji looked at his brothers and sisters who were leading the way. He regretted coming.Speaking of which, why did he come here? He didn't know the way here. Could it be that he was here to join in the plot?Dog food doesn’t taste good!

The five-year-old adult kindergarten student decided to explore the map on his own and treat it like a game.It must have been a false alarm anyway. How could the ghost stories in the school be true? This is the world of Ke Xue.

Yuji and Shinichi walked two ways. Xiaolan was walking and suddenly heard no sound from behind. She was so frightened that she lay on Shinichi and hugged him.

"Yuji, Yuji is missing."

Xinyi froze as well, and the two little ones found a classroom and hid in it. They lay on the door together and listened to the sounds outside, but there was nothing.Shinichi mustered up his courage again, and looked at Xiaolan with dead fish eyes: "I... said that there are no monsters in this world, so it must be Yuji who got separated from us."

Footsteps sounded in the empty corridor. Yuji stood in front of the library door and looked at the figure in the room. To be honest, he was not afraid, because he smelled a strong smell of alcohol, and just now at the door of the guard room he Also smelled it.

He opened a door and hid, and then walked into the library slightly after the drunken guard uncle left.The wind blew through the cracks in the window and hit the curtains, making a whining sound.The bright moonlight shone on the trees outside the window, and the shadows reflected on the floor of the library looked huge.

"As expected, it's just a story to scare children. There's nothing new. Go back to sleep!"

Yuji was about to walk towards the door, when a strong and slightly magnetic male voice sounded above his head.

"Are you really sure?"

Well, I’m sorry Shinichi, I’m actually pretending, I’m really scared when someone suddenly speaks on campus at night, I’m really sorry for laughing at you.

Yuji raised his head tremblingly and saw a dark figure sitting on the top of the bookshelf. It turned out to be a person.The man in the shadow was holding a book called The Phantom Thief Gentleman in his hand, and said in an elegant tone: "Don't you think you just read the prologue at the beginning of the story and thought the whole book was about something? This world It’s more profound than you think, and a lot of things can’t be explained.”

Yuji agreed and gave a positive reply: "That is to say, for example, a 17-year-old high school student suddenly rejuvenates, or kicks a satellite or something."

Eh!Why are you silent, don't be like this, at least agree with me a few words, I can swear that I am absolutely not lying!Believe me! ! !

The man came down from the bookcase, he closed the book and stood in front of Yuji, sizing up the five-year-old kid with his eyes.

"Your legs are really long. I only reach your knees. Did you drink too much milk?"

The man snorted and said, "Are you asking who I am? I'm your brother!"

"No, please listen to what others are saying. Although your acting skills are very good, your lines have nothing to do with my question! And uncle, you look older than my father."

Yuji finally remembered this plot. The person in front of him was the first Kid, Kuroba Kaito's father, Kuroba Toichi.Speaking of which, these two adults are really boring. They go to great lengths to scare children just to compete in a guessing game.

Yuji felt bored and turned around and waved to the back: "Uncle, my brother and the others are behind. Please go play with them. I'm going back to sleep."

"Don't you want to hear what I have to say?" Kuroba Toichi's tone was very disappointed, but he turned around when he saw Yuji.He had just mustered up the energy to continue speaking the lines he had planned, when he heard the kid say something that made his blood pressure rise.

"Can you please send me out first? I can't leave the school alone."

Ah...what is this child like...
