Conan: Science Cartoonist Kudo Yuji

Chapter 538 Like son, like father

"In just ten years, my room has changed so much?"

After sliding around on the swivel chair, Xiaolan stood up and sat on the bed. She looked at the cabinet beside the bed and opened it curiously.

"This is...a comic?"

I am actually a comic fan. This comic called "Edogawa III" can actually fill the entire cabinet. It seems that I like it very much.

"And a black notebook?"

When she opened the book, there were various signatures, some of which she knew, and some of which she didn't know, but Xiaolan guessed that this book was used by herself to collect signatures from celebrities.

"It's something very meaningful."

But autographs are not worth much, even seven-year-old Xiaolan knows this.

"Unless all the signatures are out of print, the price will rise a lot."

Just like Shinichi always laments why he was not born more than a hundred years earlier, so that those Sherlock Holmes magazines that were not out of print at that time would not be as expensive as they are now.

"The cabinet over here..."

The cabinet at the end of the bed was full of clothes. She also saw the jacket that the grown-up Shinichi wore in the photo, but she quickly focused on the two school uniforms.

"The sailor uniform is from junior high school, and the dress uniform is probably from high school."

There is no school name written on the two uniforms, but such a straight style can still be recognized as the school uniform at a glance.

"Is there a locked cabinet here?"

Pulling on the lock twice, Xiaolan looked at the broken lock head and sighed: "What on earth are you doing? When I grow up, this lock looks very old at first glance, and it will break when I touch it." Eh."

She didn't care at all. The New Year's date stamped on the lock showed that it was a completely new lock. Xiaolan took a deep breath when she opened the cabinet and saw what was inside.

"this is……!"

Violent banging sounds echoed through the Mori family building.

"Xiaolan must have seen the kidnapper's face!"

Patting the office desk, Mouri Kogoro looked at his prospective in-laws sitting on the sofa with determination: "Do you have to write here?!"

After all, he didn't understand why Kudo Yusaku and his wife had to leave their sons and settle in the United States.

"Even if my house is rented out, won't I still have Yuji's study room?"

"I feel like a pure fantasy, I am more inspired by the detective's office."

Kudo Yusaku closed the computer and leaned back on the sofa. He looked at Mouri Kogoro carefully from the corner of his eye, wondering whether he knew Conan's true identity.

"You just said that Xiaolan must have seen the kidnapper's face? What's the reason?"

Mentioning his reasoning, Mouri Kogoro hurriedly sat over: "The psychiatrist's diagnosis said that she probably suffered severe fright and shock, so in order to protect herself, her brain chose amnesia."

"A violent blow..." Kudo Yusaku pointed at the coffee table.

Yuji's amnesia in the United States, he can be considered as knowing the whole story from Jiroji. It is said that there is an arms dealer codenamed Whitebeard, who has been packaging the weapons in his hands into various toys and props and selling them on the Internet. .

If nothing happens to Xiaolan, she should be able to regain her memory just like Yuji did in a few days. Instead, this whitebeard is simply Moriarty in Tokyo...

After telling his guesses and clues, Kudo Yusaku looked at Smoker seriously: "Kogoro, what do you think?"

"I probably understand what you mean, Yusaku."

"According to your reasoning, since Xiaolan has seen the kidnapper's face, the kidnapper will definitely come to silence him." Kudo Yusaku put his hand on his chin: "We can't sit still and watch Xiaolan fall into danger. Even if we take a detour, but……"

The uncle put the cigarette butt into the ashtray: "As long as we can catch the white beard and get the list of shopping targets from his hand, maybe we can catch the kidnapper before he silences Xiaolan."

"What are you doing?"

Conan, who came back from Yuji's house after breakfast, saw the two fathers who seemed to have reached a consensus on the second floor, rubbing his sleepy eyes: "Xiaolan... how is sister?"

"She is in her room now." Mouri Kogoro picked up his coat from the hanger, looked at Kudo Yusaku who also stood up, and said to Conan: "Eri and Yukiko went for a prenatal check-up accompanied by those girls. , Don’t let your sister Xiaolan go out before that, we will be back after we go out for a while.”

"a while?"

"Ah."

Pulling out a coat from somewhere, Mouri Kogoro even put a hat on himself: "This kind of small case, with two of the most powerful detectives in Tokyo, is nothing."

"What are you talking about?"

Inexplicably, Conan caught a glimpse of his father's computer on the coffee table. Knowing the password, he unlocked it at will, looked at the blank document with only the title, and was silent for a while.

"When my daughter was in trouble, the detective was in chaos. When she went out to solve the case, she was imprisoned by gangsters?"

Is this gangster a mystery novelist wearing glasses?
"Forget it, uncle should be fine."

The top priority was Xiaolan. He locked the door on the second floor and went upstairs. When he opened the door, he found his girlfriend standing in the living room, staring blankly at him.

"This is you!"

Xiaolan only wore a small set of black clothes, which were completely different from the ones he wore when he went to school and sat behind the girl before he became a child. He looked extremely sexy.

And maybe a little h.

"ah!"

Xiaolan screamed like a normal girl, appeared in front of Conan almost in a flash, and then attacked him with a fist that broke through the air with a sonic boom.

"Death, death, death!"

His brain was spinning a lot faster. Conan pushed his body as hard as he could. After pressing the button on the football belt with his left hand, he lifted his right leg directly. After knocking against the wall, Conan's electric shoe emits a blue light.

"Can't catch up!"

It seemed that before Xiaolan's fist hit him and caused irreparable damage, it was impossible for the shoe and the football to come into contact. Conan gritted his teeth in despair.

"From today on, Xiaoxin will be a big brother."

Seeing his one-year-old self wearing a crotchless baby Shiba Inu suit sitting on the hospital ward, Conan heard his mother's words.

[Put the lantern back at this time! It’s so fitting for the occasion! 】

"Shinichi, it's such a pity that he died in such a painful way."

This time it was not a return to the lantern, and he didn't know where the fantasy came from. He seemed to see Yuji hugging Xiaolan in front of his tombstone, with his hand still on her belly.

"Don't worry, I will take good care of Xiaolan..."

"hateful!"

His body exploded with unprecedented strength, and he finally kicked the football. He watched the ball also explode and collide with Xiaolan's fist.

"So...this is why half the glass of the rice cake shopping street exploded?"

Looking helplessly at Xiaolan and Conan who were kneeling in front of them, Fei Yingli, who had arrived home in less than ten minutes, held her forehead and felt almost as uncomfortable as when she read Shinichi's essay on catching gangsters that he was praised by the elementary school.

"Mom...I didn't mean it..."

An apologetic smile appeared on Xiaolan's face, which made Fei Yingli feel distressed. She sighed and said, "Go back to your room and take a rest first."

Watching Xiaolan leave the living room, Conan also stood up and prepared to leave as if nothing happened.

"Conan..."

The words filled with cold wind came from behind, and the boy began to tremble.

"Auntie, I have a gift for you..." (End of Chapter)
