Conan the Hell Puppet Master

Kogoro interrupted the conversation at the right time and asked.

"Ah, don't call me Mrs. Hattori at this time, my old surname is Chibo!"

Hattori, now it's Chibo Jinghua who politely refused Kogoro's honorary title to her.

"Just call me Ms. Chibo, because I came to visit Mr. Maori as a person this time, and by the way, I entrusted Mr. Maori to help investigate a matter."

"Entrust my father!"

Xiaolan, who came over with tea, looked surprised.

"Isn't Heiji-kun's father a police officer in Osaka Prefecture? Why did he entrust my father?"

"Didn't I say it before? This is my personal request. How can I ask Ping... Heiji's father?"

Chi Bo Jinghua still had that smiling expression, but when he mentioned Pingzo, he obviously paused and changed his words.

"I see. You don't want to use public tools for private use. It's good. Pay attention in this case. I thought you were the same as Hei-jun..."

Speaking of this, Xiaolan seemed to have thought of something, but she felt a little rude, so she did not continue.

Conan also thought of what Xiaolan said, and his expression was a little subtle, that is... the first time he visited Heiji in Osaka.

"You're trying to say that Heiji's kid likes to ride around in a police car, alas, I've told him so many times, but he doesn't listen!"

When it comes to Hattori Heiji, Chibo Jinghua is complaining on the surface, but in fact his tone is very relaxed, even reminding, or making fun of Xiaolan.

"Xiaolan should also remember in the future, if you are with Zhaojun, you can't bother him too much with many small personal matters."

Regarding Chi Bo Jinghua's remarks, although Xiao Lan sounded shy, she was also very serious. After taking a peek at Gao Yuanzhao, she nodded heavily.

Seeing that the topic was turning to him, Gao Yuanzhao quickly stopped, and then, in the eyes of Kogoro's resentment, again and again, like the owner of a detective agency, he asked the other party's intentions seriously.

"I don't know what Ms. Chiba is entrusting to visit our Maori Detective Agency this time."

"It's the same again!"

Looking at the familiar scene in front of him, Kogoro sighed and lay down on the sofa.

Although he admits that Gao Yuanzhao is [-] times stronger than him, if Gao Yuanzhao accepts the commission, the efficiency will be much higher than him, but this kind of thing happens over and over again... It's really embarrassing. , It's so uncomfortable! Just when Xiaogoro had no love for life and was just thinking about where to go for dinner, Chi Bo Jinghua's remarks brought him back his hope of life again.

"Zhao-kun, since I didn't bother Heiji's father, and you are also someone I like, so I naturally won't bother you this time, let Mr. Kogoro handle my entrustment!"

Although Chi Bo Jinghua squinted his eyes and smiled like a fox when he said this, in Kogoro's opinion, this is not a fox, this is an angel! He quickly tidy up the suit that was crumpled from lying around, Then put on a gentleman look.

"Well, Ms. Chi Bo, since you have officially entrusted me, why don't we go to the coffee shop downstairs to discuss in detail!"

Saying that, Kogoro, who finally raised his eyebrows, was the first to get up and walk outside the office.

And Gao Yuanzhao, who was swept away, was not annoyed, and followed with a smile on the corner of his mouth.

Seeing this scene, Conan couldn't help but sigh, and couldn't help but despise Kogoro.

"This uncle Maori, did he forget to tell his uncle not to participate several times, but he still leads the case in the end? It's so simple!"

It's just that Conan doesn't know, if Kogoro is too simple, then he himself is...too young, Gao Yuanzhao's idea is not...he can guess.

...The Polo Cafe downstairs, isn't the waitress at this time a donation? So Gao Yuanzhao didn't pay special attention.

At this time, Gao Yuanzhao and a few people were just sitting here listening to Chi Bo Jinghua explaining his purpose.

"I'm looking for my classmates in high school. We were both members of the Kendo Club and were in the same grade."

After listening to the other party's explanation, Kogoro, who is rarely serious, is still not ashamed. Although the questions asked are basic, they are at least meaningful.

"As a classmate, there should be a record address when you graduate!"

"Yes, but he suddenly moved after graduation, so the home address seems to be outdated information, and there is no way to find his new address, by the way..."

Chi Bo Jinghua seemed to have thought of something, and took out a photo to show it to everyone.

"This is the group photo we found when we won the team championship at the Kendo Club. The one in the middle... The one who won the trophy is him, Shiro Shibata,"

"Kawaii!"

Gao Yuanzhao grabbed the photo and praised it sincerely.

"That... the one standing next to Shibata Shiro is... Ms. Ikebo, she's so cute!"

As Gao Yuanzhao spoke, he handed it to Xiaolan quietly, but ruthlessly refused the request to the curious Kogoro and Conan, and threatened, "A photo from decades ago, don't look at it. Is there a difference or is your level not good!"

Being so provoked by Gao Yuanzhao, Xiao Conan stopped talking, only Xiao Lan and Gao Yuanzhao sighed.

"So Hattori at that time... Aunt Chiba was so pretty!"

After being praised by Gao Yuanzhao and Xiaolan one after another, Chi Bo Jinghua was also a little embarrassed and said while covering her mouth.

"Don't say such words again, for so many years, I have become Obasan!"

And Xiaogoro, who heard Xiaolan's words, was even more itchy, but he was afraid that Gao Yuanzhao would take over again, so he could only endure curiosity and change the subject.

"I don't know why you are looking for Mr. Shibata to..."

Kogoro's expression suddenly became a little weird.

"It won't really be your first love!"

"Oh, how is that possible?"

Chi Bo Jinghua chuckled twice.

"He's just a better classmate of mine, and I just want to get back a photo from him."

"photo"

Kogoro is a little confused, how did looking for someone turn into looking for a photo! "Yes, that photo was taken when I was in the third grade of middle school and won the semi-finals of the summer kendo competition. The only photo that can be used as a souvenir, Some time ago, my mother threw the medals I won as garbage, and I remembered that I still have a photo as a souvenir."

Speaking of which, it was obvious that Chi Bo Jinghua had a nostalgic look on his face.

"Then, why did you give him the photo at that time?"

"Because I borrowed a book from him at the time, accidentally put the photo in the book and forgot to take it out, and then returned the book."

When Chi Bo Jinghua said this, he suddenly sighed.

"Alas! This is also the reason why I want to entrust it to Mr. Maori. Although it is not my first love, it is a man's jealousy!"

Chi Bo Jinghua's remarks, on the surface, are complaining about Hattori Hiraizang, but from her glances from time to time, Gao Yuanzhao is very clear about the other party's true goal.

"Ahem, since this incident was entrusted to Kogoro, there must be no time for the family cleaning today. I just have some things to do at work, so I'll just go ahead!"

While talking, Gao Yuanzhao put the photo in Xiaolan's hand into his pocket.

Xiaolan didn't notice this, she just nodded, and then took the initiative to send an encouraging kiss.

"Zhao Jun, work hard!"

"Um!"

Gao Yuanzhao nodded with a surprised look on his face, he can only say that this time Chi Bo Jinghua is the perfect "lady"

The appearance gave Xiaolan a great inspiration.

Unlike Gao Yuanzhao's surprise, Kogoro and Conan's faces were full of horror, of course not because of the kiss, but because of... "Brother Zhao, you... you really don't participate in this commission. now!"

Xiaogoro was about to cry with excitement, and took Gao Yuanzhao's hand to confirm it again and again.

"Don't cry, Kogoro, if you really can't solve it, you can still call me for help, I..."

"Bon Voyage!"

Conan waved his hands with a spring breeze on his face. Compared with the reluctance to part, this is the joy of freedom, okay? "You guys have to work hard, and I'll give you a final tip... Okay, don't spoil what you think!"

Gao Yuanzhao saw that the two guys were about to launch a grudge light again, so he quickened his pace and left.

It is true that Gao Yuanzhao does not intend to participate in the commission, but he does not believe in the case himself! Please download the chapter to read the underlined version of the novel

Chapter [-]

Of course, the reason why Gao Yuanzhao withdrew from the commission was not because he wanted to save face for Kogoro, but because in his memory, this case was really mentally retarded.

From the motives to the tactics, to the alibi, I feel that even if the unreliable police solve the case, they can succeed as long as they use snacks.

That's why he chose not to participate in this incident... It's strange, in fact, there is only one real reason.

When a beautiful kimono beauty makes a petite request to Gao Yuanzhao, no matter what...

The one above...the big head or the one below...will not deny this request.

And Chibo Jinghua's reasons are also very good and reasonable. Just like in the animation, I want to see the true level of Kogoro without Gaoyuanzhao.

In this case, Gao Yuanzhao also thought about testing Conan's strength, coupled with Chi Bo Jinghua's coquettish offensive, so he agreed to the other party's request.

Now Gao Yuanzhao is going to Shizuoka Prefecture to find that... Shiro Shibata, and by the way "set up the examination room"

From Tokyo to Shizuoka, it takes 70 minutes by the fastest Shinkansen. If you rent a car and take the road, it will take three hours3, which is relatively close.

And Gao Yuanzhao didn't need any means of transportation, and he couldn't beat the Shinkansen at full speed. It took nearly two hours, but he could confirm that no one would notice that he came here.

According to the apartment address information found from Henggou Chongwu, Gao Yuanzhao reached his destination, and it was six o'clock, which meant that it was more than an hour before Kogoro and the others came.

Thinking of this, Gao Yuanzhao didn't hesitate, fully armed, and after wrapping himself tightly, he pushed open Shibata Shiro's house.

This is the habit of this guy. If someone is at home, he will choose to leave the door open and not lock it.

As soon as he entered the door, Gao Yuanzhao noticed the bloodstain in front of him, extending all the way from the corridor to another room opposite the door.

However, Gao Yuanzhao went to the room on the right first, and saw the half-eaten food on the table, as well as chopsticks placed at random.

There is a TV in the corner, which is playing the TV series that is broadcast every morning, and it seems that it has been recorded.

"It's handled well here!"

Gao Yuanzhao left the room thinking about it and walked to another room, probably the study, where Shibata Shiro was dying.

Breaking open the body's right hand, he found a ring inside, which is what Gao Yuanzhao felt was mentally retarded in this case.
