The two of them were very close, and the two of them were very close.

"Grayhara Ai? This name is quite unique. I'm glad to meet you, Xiao Ai." Although Xiao Ai's name seemed a bit strange, Xiao Lan, who was kind by nature, still extended her hand in a friendly manner.

Looking at the white jade hand in front of her, Xiao Ai's expression flashed with a strong complexity for a moment, but she finally slowly extended her hand and shook it with Xiao Lan.

Seeing Xiao Ai's actions, Xiaolan's smile suddenly became brighter: "By the way, Xiao Ai, are you and Conan both studying at Teitan Elementary School?"

"Yes, I just transferred here today and am in the same class as Edogawa."

"Hey! That's great, I'll trouble you to take care of Conan when you go to school in the future."

For some reason, although it was the first time they met, Xiaolan and Xiao Ai were able to talk to each other and even reached a consensus on some aspects.

Seeing Xiaolan and Xiao Ai chatting enthusiastically, Sonoko was a little unhappy. After all, according to her original idea, she hoped that Xiaolan would educate Xiao Ai from the perspective of an elder, but she didn't expect it to become like this!

[Damn it! Xiaolan, you are too disappointing! I have to rely on myself at the critical moment! ]

Sonoko rarely started to exercise her brain, then squatted down and put her hands on Conan's shoulders with a smile on her face. "Little brat, to celebrate my good grades, how about I take you abroad to play? I'll book the Louvre for a month, and then you can have a good time~"

Seeing the relaxed expression on Sonoko's face, Conan couldn't help twitching: [Haha, Miss, is your family rich? How can you say such a thing? ]

While complaining in his heart, Conan hurriedly pretended to be innocent and smiled: "No, Sonoko, Heiji asked me, Xiaolan and uncle to go to Osaka together tomorrow, so we can't go abroad~"

"Oh, right! I almost forgot about it! Kazuha sent me a message this morning to make an appointment."

When Xiaolan, who was chatting with Xiaoai, heard this, she reacted immediately. Just when she was about to take out her phone to contact Kazuha, Xiaoai suddenly spoke.

"Excuse me, can you take me with you? I've always wanted to visit Osaka."

"This..."

"Wu..."

Just when Xiaolan was in a dilemma, Xiaoai suddenly changed her expression and showed a pitiful expression, as if she would burst into tears the next moment.

Xiaolan panicked and comforted her: "Don't cry, Xiaoai, can't I take you? I'll tell Kazuha now."

"Since this kid can go, it should be okay to take me with me! I can pay for it myself!"

Just as Xiaolan was comforting Xiaoai, Sonoko suddenly raised her hand to express her willingness to join this trip.

[Hey! Sonoko, what's wrong with you! ]

Looking at Sonoko who raised her hand seriously, Conan's expression was so helpless and tired.

The next day in Osaka

"I'm sorry, Kazuha. I suddenly changed my mind and added so many friends. It's troublesome for you and Heiji."

Faced with Xiaolan's apology, Kazuha waved her hands and smiled: "It's okay, it's okay. It's better to have more people. It's more lively, isn't it~"

Just as the two girls were talking to each other, Kogoro gritted his teeth and growled: "It's lively, but can you please explain why you used a police patrol car to pick us up! It's like criminals!"

Seeing that Kogoro was a little bit out of control, Hattori Heiji, who was in the co-pilot, smiled and comforted him: "Don't care about such trivial matters, uncle, this is the latest patrol tank, the kind that bullets can't penetrate. My dad said that in order to make you feel good, "We Osaka people are so enthusiastic that we started this chariot, right, Officer Sakata?"

The driver, Officer Sakata, smiled and nodded slightly when he heard this: "Yes, this is what the Chief Hattori specifically told us, and even Brother Heiji attaches so much importance to it, so Detective Mori, take this opportunity to enjoy the scenery of our Osaka~"

"Really, it reminds me of the past..."

Looking carefully at the interior of the patrol car, Kogoro couldn't help but flash a touch of nostalgia in his eyes. Once upon a time, he was also an elite who sat in a police car to go on a mission, but now...

With the police car leading the way, almost no private car dared to block it. After a while, several people came to a ramen restaurant with a very old taste.

Old Jack's authentic traditional ramen shop!

Officer Sakata greeted enthusiastically: "This is our Osaka's old-fashioned assorted ramen, hurry up and taste it."

As soon as the voice fell, Officer Sakata directly held the bowl and started to enjoy the ramen.

"Oh! This taste is really irresistible!" Kogoro wiped his saliva, and couldn't wait to sit down and asked for a full bowl of ramen and started to eat crazily.

And not only Kogoro, even Sonoko, who had been living a luxurious life since childhood, praised it highly, and then she started to enjoy the ramen without any rich lady's demeanor. "Well! This taste is even more fragrant than a whole roasted wagyu beef, I'm not polite!"

Compared to these two starving gods, Xiaolan, Xiaoai, and Heye's eating style seemed much more elegant, and even made people feel pleasing to the eye.

While everyone was enjoying the delicious food, Conan carefully came to Hattori Heiji and made a gesture. "Hattori, did you bring the stuff?"

"It's all here, but it's just a copy. The original is in my dad's hands."

After making sure no one was paying attention, Hattori Heiji took out several photos from the inside pocket of his shirt and handed them to Conan. On them were the bodies of a man and a woman with a dagger piercing their chests, as well as a series of items such as wallets and ID cards.

Hattori Heiji introduced: "The two people who were killed were the supermarket manager Nagao Hideaki and the hotel owner Nishiguchi Tayo. At present, apart from the same modus operandi, no place has been found that could have any intersection between the two of them."

"Have you investigated your birthplace, school, and workplace?" Conan asked, staring at the photos in his hand.

"We have checked everything, but we only know that the two deceased were native Osaka people, but they were in different areas, so there is nothing to gain."

Hattori Heiji held his chin with a rather unhappy expression on his face. "The Osaka police have not released the details of the crime, and Mrs. Nishiguchi was killed with the same crime, which means that the murderer should be the same person."

Conan's eyes became sharp: "According to criminal psychology, it is absolutely impossible for a serial killer to stop after killing two people. Maybe there are new victims now, but the police have not found them yet."

Conan and Hattori Heiji fell silent when they thought of this, and then looked at each other tacitly, with deep fear in each other's eyes.

A serial killer, hiding in the dense crowd, no one knows when he will raise the butcher knife again, like a dangerous time bomb, maybe in the next second, it will blow up the defenseless innocent people.

Xiao Ai, who was enjoying ramen, also noticed the strangeness of the two detectives at this time, but she only watched for a while and continued to enjoy the delicious food.

[No wonder they dared to trust this black-skinned boy so much, it turned out that they were two completely identical guys. 】

After more than 40 minutes, the group of people who had eaten and drunk enough finally walked out of the ramen shop with satisfaction.

"Burp! What a rare delicacy, this trip is worth it~" Kogoro patted his obviously rounded belly with satisfaction, and then planned to get on the car to check in at the next scenic spot.

"Bang!"

Just when Kogoro just touched the car door, something suddenly fell directly from the sky onto the roof of the police car!

"What is it!"

"Is it a high-altitude drop?"

"This is it!"

Everyone present looked carefully and was instantly shocked!

It was seen that the thing on the roof was not garbage or debris thrown from a high altitude, but a real male corpse!
