Conan: Science Cartoonist Kudo Yuji

"Hey, Heiji is missing?"

After getting up from bed and washing up early in the morning, Toyama Kazuha heard that Hattori Heiji also stayed in the hotel last night. But when she pushed open the door of the room that was given to Hattori last night, all she saw was a messy bed and quilt.

"What is that guy doing out so early?"

The Kudo brothers, who stuck their heads out of the next room at the same time, looked at each other and shook their heads together.

Today is the sign-in day for the Kendo Competition. Everyone must sign in at the competition venue at the specified time, and then wait for their assignment results in order to plan future training directions or analyze opponents.

Of course, as one of the best contestants in the competition, Hattori Heiji only has the opportunity to be studied by his opponents, and generally he will not take the initiative to study his opponents.

"But is it really possible? It seems that there are two other popular contestants besides him in this competition."

Yuuji sat on the sofa, half asleep and half awake, recalling the two boys who followed Ooka Momiji yesterday.

"Not to mention Okita Souji, that bald guy also gives me the feeling that he is very powerful." Conan touched his hair that had been pressed down and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Hey, Conan, your hairstyle has changed." Toyama Kazuha pointed at Conan's hair and said, "It seems that the hair salon you went to isn't very professional."

"Hehe." Conan glanced at Yuuji: "After all, he's a free hairstylist."

Guessing that Hattori Heiji went to sign, Kazuha took a few people out to eat quickly. The four of them took a taxi and went straight to the competition venue.

"Senior Hongye! You are here too!"

As expected, I met Ooka Momiji at the entrance of the scene. She was surrounded by three high school students, and Iori could only stand aside.

"Ah, isn't this Little Leaf?"

Ooka Hongye nodded to Yuuji, then looked at Toyama Kazuha with a half smile: "What a coincidence, I'm in Hokkaido this time."

"Huh?" Toyama Kazuha was a little confused when she heard her words, but the other party left the scene without responding. Except for Iori, the other three stayed.

"It looks like Hattori...Brother isn't here." Conan looked up to confirm with Okita Souji, and after getting the confirmation, he pinched his chin and said, "Where did this guy go?"

"Well, since Hattori is my rival, he must be doing something more important."

"If looking for the beautiful scenery of Hakodate counts..."

A familiar voice was heard from a group of high school students. The members of the Kendo Club wearing the uniforms of Teitan High School made way and revealed the familiar face while the Kudo brothers were speechless.

"Hey, that looks like Kudo Shinichi." Okita Souji whispered to Tetsu Moroha, "I told you, there's no way a brother would go out with his brother's girlfriend alone."

"Hmm..." Tetsu Moroha carefully observed the boy's face, then looked at Okita Souji: "He really looks exactly like you."

After exchanging a few brief words with the students of Teitan High School, Kuroba Kaito winked at Yuji and Conan, then joined the team.

"Hey, Xiaolan!"

The magician's face made Xiaolan pause for a moment. She just nodded and smiled, but did not speak to Kuroba Kaito, which made the two people from Quanxin High School curious again.

"Did they have a fight? Did my brother catch up with us?"

"It's hard to say."

On the other side, the blonde beauty Miss Hakuba, who came from the Ekoda High School team, also walked over here under everyone's gaze and stood silently by the side.

"Wow, they are all handsome men and beautiful women..."

The whispering was a bit unbearable for Quan Xin and the others, so Tetsu Moroha pulled Onimaru Takeshi and Okita Souji back to the high school team, while the few people here were wandering around the scene.

"The venue isn't actually that big. I think we can hold two games at the same time. This means the game time will be about half as long as we estimated."

Conan walked beside Xiaolan cautiously, his hand on his belt all the time, which scared Kuroba Kaito. In addition to the three people, Toyama Kazuha, who was lost because she couldn't find Hattori Heiji's trace, asked Yuji to help her analyze Hattori's whereabouts, but the answer she got was just "I don't know", which made her even more lost.

[I can't say that he was looking for the best place to confess to you.] "It's impossible for Heiji-senpai to be in trouble anyway. Maybe he was involved in a murder case and couldn't get away." Yuuji laughed and said, "We should always think on the bright side of things."

"That's right." Yuanshan Heye smiled helplessly: "I think Yuuji, who said the murder case was a good thing, needs my attention more."

"brush!"

Suddenly, there was a continuous sound of swords swinging in the air. Yuanshan Heye, who heard it, immediately became much more alert and ran quickly towards the sound.

"Where's your concern?"

Yuuji glanced back.

Conan protected Ran behind him to protect Kid, and took his girlfriend's hand naturally. Ran blushed because her boyfriend held her hand, and there was a face similar to Kudo Shinichi opposite her.

Because Kuroba Kaito has been feeling uncomfortable with Hakuba standing next to him since just now, and Hakuba secretly looks at Kuroba Kaito from time to time because he is concerned.

Guess who’s the guy without a partner?

Yuji snorted, then quickly ran in the direction of Toyama and Ye.

"The sound of you swinging the knife just now was very pleasant."

"You mean the sound of the knife swinging?"

"Yes, that's called Tongming."

Yuji saw a gust of wind blowing, and the bangs on Yuanshanheye's forehead brushed across her face. The pink ribbon made the girl's skin look white and tender, and her big eyes were full of smiles, as if she saw the shadow of someone in the man wielding the knife.

“He looks really handsome.”

[He Ye-senpai! What are you doing, He Ye-senpai! ]

Yuji had already covered his face. He could guess what was going to happen next without even looking. He looked up and saw that the man being praised by Toyama and Ye's eyes were slowly getting bigger.

"really……"

"Hey, Yuuji, you followed me too."

Toyama Kazuha noticed that the boy had a very rich expression, and the man who was practicing sword drawing also looked in the direction the girl was looking.

[Yoshi, now is the time to pull out the flag...]

"With Sister Ye..."

Under Yuanshan Heye's stiff smile, the boy's tears, which came suddenly, successfully flowed to the ground.

"You already have me, but you're still chatting up other handsome guys..."

"Wait! What are you talking about!" Yuanshan Heye explained to the man awkwardly: "He is my friend's younger brother."

"That's too much. When we were just two people, you called me Youyou. Now that there are other handsome guys around, you call me brother."

"Sister He Ye just wants to see me get jealous, so stop teasing me." The boy clenched his fists like a green durian: "Please spare me!"

"This is my line!" Yuanshan Heye grabbed Yuji's shoulders and shook him hard, his cheeks flushed like a red-painted apple: "Please spare me."

[It should be about the same...]

Yuji glanced at the man and suddenly began to doubt his life.

[Hey, hey! Why do I feel like you seem to be even more excited?] (End of this chapter)
