Great Swordsman Ke Xue.

Chapter 598 Bystanders understand
The next day, at seven o'clock in the morning, after getting up early and washing up, Shimizu Koji took Haibara Ai out. After meeting up with others, they went to the restaurant together.

"Conan, Hattori, you guys don't look like you got a good rest?"

Xiaolan asked with some concern, and Conan and Hattori, who were named, were yawning in unison at this time. When they heard Xiaolan's words, they were both stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly wiped away the tears that seeped out because of yawning.

"No, how could it be?"

"Sister Xiaolan, you are wrong."

This action was too obvious, but Conan and Hattori Heiji just smiled awkwardly. Even Xiaolan couldn't bear to blame them anymore, but it was different for Kazuha.

"Heiji, Conan, you two are such idiots. Even when investigating a case, there should be a limit. Forget it. I don't want to bother with you. Anyway, as long as you don't die suddenly while investigating a case and need my help to collect the body, it's fine."

Kazuha was very merciless when she spoke sarcastically, so Conan and Hattori naturally had no way to respond. Xiaolan could only smile awkwardly and pull Kazuha's arm.

"Okay, Xiaolan and Heye, you two should just ignore them. They just didn't sleep for one night, they won't die."

Kogoro Maori suddenly interrupted, his tone full of resentment and dissatisfaction.

Just as Shimizu Koji was curious, he heard Maori Kogoro say, "But, at my age, if I don't get a good night's sleep, I'll really die, Xiaolan!"

Well, it seems that Kogoro Mouri was probably pulled out of bed by Xiaolan by his tie.

Koji Shimizu felt no sympathy, he just wanted to laugh, and the others were similar. Even Kazuha was amused by Kogoro Mori's funny and pitiful appearance.

Of course, not everyone felt embarrassed. Xiaolan was very embarrassed, but she certainly couldn't deal with Mouri Kogoro in front of outsiders like she did before, so even though she felt very embarrassed, she still clenched her fists and endured it.

"Okay, Dad, don't worry, you can go back and rest after breakfast."

"Really, really!?"

"Of course it's true—"

Kogoro Mouri shuddered and rushed into the restaurant. He picked out the food in a flash, sat down and started to wolf it down.

Conan and Hattori also took the opportunity to follow. Only four people, including Shimizu Koji, who had a good rest last night, walked slowly behind.

"Oh~, I really envy the relationship between you and your daughter, Xiaolan."

A question mark appeared in Huiyuan Ai's eyes, "Do you want to beat your father like that?"

He Ye: “?”

Looking back suddenly, He Ye looked down at the innocent-looking Haibara Ai, opened his mouth but couldn't say anything.

"Hahahaha, Xiao Ai, you really know how to joke."

He Ye reached out and touched Haibara Ai's head, and to her surprise, Haibara Ai did not dodge today, and the vague hostility towards her seemed to have disappeared.

But originally, Kazuha didn't care much about it. After all, she only regarded Haibara Ai as Shimizu Koji's little sister, and would never think of anything else.

Of course, it would be better if I wasn’t hated now.

Kazuha's mood suddenly improved a lot, so she boldly reached out and grabbed Haibara Ai's little hand, pulling her away from Shimizu Koji.

Shimizu Koji didn't care about it, he just waved his hand and said: "Then I'll leave Heye, Xiaolan, and Xiaoai to you~."

"Hey, Koji, what are you going to do?" He Ye was a little confused.

"I'm going to ask those great detectives about the situation. We can't just play around and not help at all~."

Shimizu Koji's frankness made Xiaolan and Kazuha blush suddenly. The two of them didn't say anything else, just nodded in agreement, and then disappeared into the restaurant with Haibara Ai. Shimizu Koji saw this, smiled, and then walked towards Conan and Hattori's table. The two of them were really inseparable, and they had hardly been apart from yesterday until now.

"How was it yesterday? Did you gain anything?"

Koji Shimizu came uninvited and pulled a chair to sit down, but Conan and Hattori didn't mind. Instead, they welcomed Koji Shimizu to come.

In fact, if they were not afraid of being targeted by Kazuha, Xiaolan and Haibara Ai, they would have wanted to pull Shimizu Koji to discuss it together long ago. However, Shimizu Koji was so popular with the women that they did not dare to implement their ideas at will.

Hattori first took a big sip of porridge, then quickly shook his head, "Regarding the bombing, there is nothing at all. The Osaka Prefectural Police is still in chaos because there are too many injured people. A lot of police force has to be allocated to deal with it afterwards."

"But if there is any news about the bombing, Officer Otaki will notify me immediately."

"Oh? You didn't investigate the bombing. What were you doing yesterday?"

Koji Shimizu said in confusion. He originally thought that the two men had been running around for the entire night regarding the bombing case, but Hattori Heiji told him that it was not the case. Could it be that they had encountered another murder case while strolling down the street?

"Mr. Yajima was killed."

"Mr. Yajima?"

"That's the one, the planner and organizer of the karuta program that Xiaolan visited. He was found dead in his house in Kyoto. Hattori and I rushed there overnight." Conan took a delicious bite of his steamed bun and explained.

After hearing what he said, Koji Shimizu couldn't help but frown. First there was an explosion, then a murder case?

In his original assumption, the other party was coming for Nichiuri TV, but now it seems that this is probably not the case.

After all, although yesterday's explosion had a great impact, it was nothing to the Nichiren TV Building. It only destroyed one floor, and the main loss was caused by the fire. If you really want to cause serious damage to the Nichiren TV Building, the explosive equivalent would have to be at least ten times as much.

The dead man named Yajima discovered by Hattori Heiji and Conan is very crucial. Mr. Yajima is a staff member of Nichimi TV and the planner of a program that day. However, at the same time as the explosion occurred, he was killed at home.

"Qingshui, you have thought of this too, right?"

"Ah, you mean the connection between these two incidents? This is something that can be seen at a glance."

Shimizu Koji nodded indifferently, but Hattori Heiji and Conan looked at each other, and then looked at Maori Kogoro who was not far away.

Inability to vomit.

"Maybe the enemy is targeting Mr. Yajima? But if they are only targeting Mr. Yajima, then killing him would be enough. The explosion is unnecessary."

"But if it was aimed at the TV station, then why did they kill Mr. Yajima? It seems that the matter is not over yet."

Shimizu Koji sighed softly and drank a sip of soy milk, while Hattori Heiji and Conan looked at each other again, and then both of them looked at Shimizu Koji with shining eyes.

"Qingshui, come join us!"

"Sorry, I refuse~."

"Eh!?"

"Don't react so strongly. I don't want to be watched like a monkey."

Shimizu Koji calmed down the two detectives, one big and one small, and continued to explain, "There should be someone to protect you. Every time you two encounter a case, you will accidentally involve the people around you. I think I don't need to say more, right?"

Conan and Hattori Heiji stared at each other, lowered their heads and concentrated on eating breakfast. No one mentioned the case again, and it remained quiet until the end of the meal.
