Conan's Science Manga Artist Kudo Yuuji

"Hey, is that house rented out?"

Sitting on the chair in the classroom, Conan looked at Mei with a depressed face and thought of the house salesman from yesterday.

I didn't expect him to look stupid, but his business ability is pretty good.

"Well, I took my mother to look at it today, and it turned out that the house has been rented out."

Uncovering the pudding snack from the student meal, Ayumi scooped some out with a small spoon and put it into her mouth.

"That's really a pity. Yoshida-san obviously likes that house very much, so we can only go and see it when the family doesn't rent it."

Although Xiao Ai said this, the children didn't really care. After all, buying a house was far away for them at their age.

"It's actually not that good inside. It just looks small and delicate, and it's not very good for the elderly."

Ayumi noticed that Conan was looking at her and looked up and down: "What's wrong? Conan."

Nothing, just...

"Is that house rented by a thirty-year-old couple with two boys?"

After thinking about it carefully, Conan decided that the salesman was not that good. The only explanation was that he just got lucky and the house was spotted by someone with suitable needs.

"No, I heard from the neighbors over there that the person who rented the house is an elderly couple."

The three little ones were just confused, but Conan and Xiao Ai, who were always sensitive, felt something was wrong. They looked at each other and began to recall what happened yesterday.

"You can tell from the design of that house that it is not suitable for the elderly to live, and the rent is not cheap. How can there be elderly people renting it?"

Conan was writing and drawing on paper. He always felt that something was wrong yesterday, but he couldn't remember it.

"Speaking of which, the skylight in the attic should be from the house that was sold. Why didn't the salesperson introduce it?"

Xiao Ai noticed that the paper on Conan's desk listed the characteristics of the rent mentioned by the salesperson. She picked up her pen and circled the attic.

"That's right! This is it!"

Yes, when we went up to the attic yesterday, the salesman blocked the skylight, as if he didn't want them to see. Is there anything wrong with the skylight?

"It seems that the myth of that house being accident-free is about to be broken." Genta took out biscuits from his schoolbag and ate them, and found that Mitsuhiko had also joined him.

"The owner of that house is really pathetic. He just bought the house and he is about to lose the price."

Staring at the two boys in confusion, Conan scratched his head: "Why?"

You also ask why, every time Conan you have this doubt, that house standard will happen time!

………

On the way home from school, Conan couldn't resist the curiosity. The little ones had to accompany Conan to the house and waited at the door for a while. Xiao Ai, who wanted to persuade him to go home, noticed that the door was opened and closed again. On the lips.

An old lady with gray hair walked out of the house. She looked very thin, but she was not stooped. She was just about to talk to an old man in the room when she saw Xiao Ai standing next to Conan.

"Oh, what a cute little lady."

"Hello, did you guys move in yesterday?"

Xiao Ai took a few steps forward and noticed that Conan had been looking at the old man who was sitting on the porch changing shoes behind him, and he also looked over.

The old man changed his shoes easily, but when he was about to stand up, he slapped his hand heavily on the floor to support his body.

"We actually just moved in this morning, but we changed the name tags yesterday." The old lady watched her husband go out, and then warmly invited the children in as guests.

"Is that so? You guys are from Tottori Prefecture." Conan asked curiously as he knelt down on the guest floor on the second floor and noticed that there was no other furniture in the living room except a set of Japanese tables.

"But this house is not suitable for the elderly, isn't it?"

"You are so smart. Just by walking around the house, you know that this house is not suitable for us to live in." The old lady poured a glass of juice for everyone and knelt down at the table again.

"Because we are a boy detective team!" x3

The children did not mention that they actually came to see the house yesterday, and did not want her to mistakenly think that the house was very popular and interfere with the old man's judgment.

"I see, it turns out you are detectives."

Holding her face, she laughed: "The detective I admire most is Edogawa III. I even planned to raise a Shiba Inu with the old man."

She thought of Conan's question just now, took out a feature phone from her pocket, and pulled up a photo of a boy wearing a green coat, but whose face could not be seen clearly.

"This is our son. He seems to want to marry the girl he likes. The girl lives not far from here, so we plan to use our savings to buy him a house."

Putting away her mobile phone, the old lady sighed in distress: "But we don't have enough money, so we have to sell the house in our hometown and bring the money here. I want to rent it and try it out. If it's good, I'll buy it."

Should you spend all your life savings to buy a house for your son? These two old men look to be in their sixties or seventies. What will you do if you sell the house in your hometown?

Xiao Ai also thought about this question. She held the juice cup and asked worriedly.

"Us?" The old lady looked at the sparrows flying outside the window and the setting sun: "We will rent a house and live in it. My husband is only seventy-two now, so he can drive a taxi. I can also clean for others. Just find a house with a monthly rent of 40,000 yuan.”

Monthly rent…40,000…

The children looked at each other in confusion. They really couldn't imagine what a house with a monthly rent of 40,000 yuan would be like. Only Conan, who followed Mouri Kogoro around, knew a little bit about it.

"If the monthly rent is 40,000 yuan, it will probably be only six tatami mats."

Realizing that the topic was a bit heavy, Xiao Ai quickly poked Conan and asked him to find a way to talk about it.

"By the way, your son doesn't plan to come over and stay with you?"

The old lady was a little tired. She couldn't straighten her back, so she had to bend down a little: "He works outside and said he didn't have time."

"Can we go to the attic and have a look? I just saw that there are stairs going up." After drinking the juice in the cup, Conan expressed the hope that he could go upstairs, and the old lady allowed him.

The attic was no different from yesterday, but this time there was no salesperson blocking the way. Conan could clearly see Xiaolan clearing the table on the second floor of the Mori Detective Agency not far away.

You can see the office here...

He suddenly spotted Mouri Kogoro who opened the door and walked into the office, and Yuji who followed behind.

"How about it? You can see the stars through the skylight here at night. It's very beautiful."

The old lady held on to the door frame on the third floor and touched the wall.

"If our son is willing, we also want to live here, but it will cause trouble for them."

"You bought this house for him, didn't you?" Xiao Ai supported the old lady, frowned and said seriously: "How could he disagree?"

"You are indeed very cute, little lady."

After touching Xiao Ai's head, Yukiko, who heard that the children were preparing to go home, watched them leave and prepared to tidy up the living room.
