"Ah! The moon is out."

Holding the railing and looking at the sky, under the huge full moon, Conan couldn't help but turn his attention to Xiaolan, who was sitting on the terrace below and chatting with Kazuha. Feeling Shinichi's gaze, Xiaolan also raised her head and smiled at her boyfriend.

"Heiji, that idiot, is still looking at others..." Unhappily raising the teacup, Kazuha stuffed a piece of dessert into his mouth as if in a rage, and chewed it hard a few times.

"By the way, Kazuha, why don't we invite that girl here."

Xiaolan clapped her hands and pointed at Asuka not far away with excitement.

Without agreeing immediately, Kazuha listened to the laughter coming from the room upstairs, and asked with her chin in her hand: "Ordinary girls won't come here, right?"

And the girl next to her should be her sister. It's not good for a girl's reputation to go to such a teahouse with a custom atmosphere without an adult around.

"In that case, let's just go down and get to know her."

Helping Kazuha sit up, Xiaolan shook Kazuha's hand and hugged the Osaka girl's shoulders.

"You have to see what kind of person Hattori-kun's first love is, right?"

After hesitating for a while, Kazuha agreed. She stuck out her tongue at Hattori Heiji on the balcony upstairs, and changed her shoes with Xiaolan and walked out of the teahouse, crossed the small bridge and walked to the shore, and went to Asuka not far away.

"Yuji, Xiaolan and the others are coming!"

She caught a glimpse of Xiaolan coming over, and Kaori shook Yuji's arm, and was comforted by the boy again.

"It's okay. We're all wearing masks now. They won't recognize us." The boy looked at the cherry blossoms across the street and could already hear the footsteps of Xiaolan and Ran.

"Excuse me, is your name Asuka?"

With a vigilant expression, Yuji took a few steps back with Kaori.

"Ah, my name is Maoli Ran, and this is Toyama Kazuha. We met someone we know, so we came to see them."

Pretending to be puzzled, Yuji carefully looked at Kazuha and Xiaolan's faces and shook his head.

"Sorry, I don't think I know you. Maybe you recognized the wrong person."

Yuji hugged Kaori's arm and said in a voice that Xiaolan and the others could hear: "Asuna, let's go."

Is her sister called Asuna? She looks about the same height as Kaori...

Xiaolan saw the "sister" opposite her turn around and prepare to leave, and hurriedly shouted: "That!"

Finding that the girls paused for a moment, Xiaolan immediately explained: "The boy who was injured in the afternoon is actually our friend. We came to say thank you."

Turning around, Asuka said "oh". In Xiaolan's judgment, she only let down her guard against the two of them now.

"It's not a big deal. You are too polite to come here to thank me."

Salute Xiaolan, Asuka noticed Xiaolan's curious expression and touched her face.

Is there something wrong with the disguise?

"Excuse me, is there something on my face?"

When the girl pointed it out, Xiaolan shook her hand awkwardly: "No, I just think, Asuka, your voice sounds familiar."

"Really? Where have we heard it before?" Kazuha put her index finger to her lips and pondered, and was suddenly startled by Xiaolan.

"Sure enough! The two of you have the same voice!" The unicorn girl looked at Asuka first, then at Kazuha, and nodded as if affirmatively.

Of course, I pretended to have this voice on purpose...

Yuji was still calm on the surface, but he almost laughed out loud secretly.

Just when the girls were about to enjoy the cherry blossoms together, a huge scream came from the direction of the teahouse.

"Ah!!! Mr. Sakura Masazo is dead!"

………

"The carotid artery was cut open neatly, and this method looks very familiar. It seems that it was probably done by the same person as the recent murderer!"

Squatting beside the body, Hattori Heiji wrapped the hairband around his wrist, put on the hat, and observed Sakura Masazo's body.

"Anyway, before the police arrive, please wait in the room for a while." Maori Kogoro took the water bottle handed by Conan and drank a few sips. He was relieved when his head was much clearer.

I was afraid that he would reach out to touch the body when he was drunk just now, which would destroy the scene.

After the others left, only Conan, Hattori Heiji and Maori Kogoro were left at the crime scene. The uncle looked around and said puzzledly: "I remember Mr. Sakura should have gone to bed, why was he killed in the warehouse in the basement?"

"I don't know, but looking at the things scattered on the ground, the murderer probably took advantage of his back to search the warehouse and cut his neck directly."

He turned his back in front of the murderer, which means that this person must be someone familiar to Sakura Masazo.

Maori Kogoro immediately suspected Ryuen monk, Nishijo Taikawa and Mizuo Harutaro.

"The most suspicious one is actually Mama-san." Hattori Heiji pinched his chin: "We were all on the second floor before, and Kazuha and the others went out again. Only Mama-san could move freely in the teahouse, and she was the first to discover it."

"But, Mr. Nishijo also came out to use the toilet, and Mr. Mizuo also went out to ask for water."

Conan wrapped his hands with a handkerchief and searched for Sakura Masazo's key.

"It hurts!" Covering his head, Conan wrapped the key in a handkerchief and put it in his pocket while Maori Kogoro was not paying attention, and ran out of the warehouse quickly.

"The police are here." Looking at Officer Ayanokouji who walked into the entrance, Hattori Heiji saw Xiaolan and Kazuha following behind him, and also saw Asuka behind them.

"Why is she here too?"

Shaking off Conan's hand holding the corner of his clothes, Hattori Heiji ignored the police who opened his mouth to ask questions, took off the hairband on his wrist, and handed it to Asuka.

"This is yours, thank you so much for this afternoon."

Pinching the hairband, Yuji untied the ponytail at the back and made a hairstyle on his head.

"You're welcome. I heard from them that there are very powerful detectives here, so I came to take a look."

Going around Hattori Heiji, Yuji saw Maori Kogoro who was faintly drunk, and approached him in surprise.

"Ah, isn't this the legendary, sleeping Kogoro? Today I finally saw him alive!"

"Eh, me?!" Pointing at himself, Uncle Maori looked at the girl's beautiful face and found that she was about the same age as his daughter, and he had no interest at all.

"Sister Asuka knows uncle, but doesn't know brother Heiji?" Conan frowned and stared at the girl in confusion.

Kyoto is much closer to Osaka than Tokyo, so it makes no sense that he doesn't know the famous high school detective Hattori Heiji in Kansai?

"As for me, I've actually been studying in Tokyo." Glancing at Xiaolan, Yuji squatted down, covered Conan's cheeks with his hands, looked at his big brother's increasingly red face, and laughed sinisterly in his heart that no one could see.

"Because there was a boy who found the criminal who killed my uncle before, and I fell in love with him all of a sudden, so I learned about detectives."

"Like... like a boy." As if the sky was falling, Hattori Heiji looked at the girl's back with a complicated look.

"Yeah." Yuji hugged Conan and turned his little face to everyone: "He is quite pretentious, saying that there is only one truth..."
