Ke Xue: The Yellow-haired Detective

"Sir, please have some tea..."

Detective Assistant Kudo Yukiko brought the brewed black tea from the kitchen to the office living room.

"Thank you...I'm really thirsty..."

Hattori Heiji picked up the tea cup and drank the tea in one gulp.

Hattori Heiji put the tea cup back on the tray. When he saw Kudo Yukiko, he was obviously stunned: "Aren't you Aunt Yukiko? I remember seeing you when I was a child. You really haven't changed at all after so many years!"

"Eh? You are..." Kudo Yukiko saw Hattori Heiji's charcoal face entering the memory, and then she said in surprise: "You are... the son of my good best friend Hattori Shizuka! It's been a long time since I last saw you. It’s so big.”

Fujimine Yukiko recalled the past. At that time, Kudo Yusaku was Japan's most powerful detective, and Hattori Heizo was Japan's most powerful criminal police officer. The two worked together to detect countless high-intelligence crimes, which was a widely circulated legend in Japan.The wife of Kudo Yusaku and the wife of Hattori Heizo also became friends and became a pair of good best friends.

"Aunt Yukiko, why are you here?"

"After returning to Tokyo, I had nothing to do. My son Kudo Shinichi introduced me to work here."

"So it is!"

"Heiji, is your mother okay?"

"Yes. However, since my father has been successful in the Japanese police force, he spends less and less time with my mother, and she often feels lonely. If Aunt Yukiko can visit her when she has time, she will be very happy." Hattori Heiji said enthusiastically.

"Ah... I will visit you when I have time." Yukiko replied politely.

"Aunt Yukiko, where is Kudo Shinichi? Why haven't I seen him?"

"Kudo Shinichi has something to deal with during this period, and he will not be at the detective agency during this period..."

"Not here..."

Hattori Heiji did not flinch: "It doesn't matter if Kudo Shinichi is not here, as long as Lin Xiaofan is here."

Lin Xiaofan frowned: "Hattori, you don't want to compete with me in reasoning... I'm not interested."

Hattori Heiji said: "I'm not talking about this, I think... you must have received a letter from Detective Koshien!"

"letter?"

He and Kudo Yukiko had just returned from Izu this morning and hadn't had time to check their mailbox yet.

"It's an invitation from Detective Koshien. It's a detective competition held by Nippon TV. You didn't know it!"

After saying that, Hattori Heiji ran to the office's mailbox and rummaged through it, and sure enough he found the invitation letter.

Hattori Heiji handed the invitation letter to Lin Xiaofan, and Lin Xiaofan opened the invitation letter. The content was to invite Lin Xiaofan and Kudo Shinichi to participate in the Detective Koshien program hosted by Nippon TV.Because Lin Xiaofan and Kudo Shinichi are often together, they were invited at the same time to serve as representatives of famous detectives in Kanto.

"Xinyi is not in the office now...can't come!" Lin Xiaofan said.

"Then you will represent the famous detective of Kanto in the competition." Hattori Heiji said calmly.

"But, I also..." Lin Xiaofan was about to reject Hattori Heiji, but was interrupted by Kudo Yukiko.

"No, Kudo Shinichi can come." Kudo Yukiko suddenly interrupted.

"Eh? Aunt Yukiko, didn't you say Kudo Shinichi wasn't here?"

"I'm going to find him now. Tell me the location and I'll notify Kudo Shinichi to come over now."

"it is good……"

Hattori Heiji told Yukiko the location. After Yukiko got the location, she ran home in a hurry.

Lin Xiaofan knew what was going on right away?Kudo Yukiko is going home, disguised as Kudo Shinichi, to participate in the Detective Koshien Competition.

Lin Xiaofan was worried about Kudo Yukiko, so he had no choice but to participate.

……

At the Tokyo Bay Pier, a director wearing Japanese TV station uniforms was already waiting.

"Hey, Kudo Shinichi is the only one left." The director looked at Hattori Heiji and Lin Xiaofan who were coming over.

Hattori Heiji said: "Kudo Shinichi will be here soon, please wait."

As expected, not long after, Kudo Shinichi made his debut!

Kudo Shinichi ran up to Lin Xiaofan and asked strangely: "Xiaofan, why weren't you surprised when you saw me?"

Lin Xiaofan rolled his eyes at Kudo Shinichi: "Why should I be surprised?"

Lin Xiaofan was not surprised, but Kudo Yukiko, who was pretending to be Kudo Shinichi, was surprised.

Could it be that my true identity has been seen through by Lin Xiaofan? There are obviously no flaws in my disguise skills. This is unreasonable...

The director paused and said, "Now that everyone is here, let's go."

Then, the director took the three people to a small boat not far away.

"Heiji, do you know that director?" Lin Xiaofan asked, looking at the pudgy figure.

"Ah, I don't know. Today is the first time we have met. But he told me beforehand that he would wear a jacket from Japan TV Station." Hattori said.

The three of them walked into the cabin and found that three other detectives were already sitting in the cabin.

"When you arrive at the island, please don't leave your room until dinner time."

The director reminded everyone.

13. Detective Koshien

Near evening, a group of people set foot on the island and were greeted by an old man with a Chinese character face wearing square eyes at the pier. ...

"I am Kotani Renzo, who is responsible for taking care of everyone's daily life this time..." The old man subconsciously bowed and introduced himself.

"I'm Hiroo Tsuchio, the director responsible for organizing events." The director also re-introduced himself.

Jiagu Rensan turned around and led the way, saying: "Please follow me to the hotel..."

In the hotel, everyone sat around a round table. Tsutsuo Hirosheng wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "...Now can you please introduce yourselves?"

"sure……"

Hattori Heiji looked around and said strangely: "But, is it okay just like this? There are no cameras filming, and even other staff of a TV station can't be seen..."

Tsuchio explained with a dry smile: "Actually, other staff and guests are coming tomorrow. The reason why I have brought you here is to let you get familiar with it first... I think I will probably do the same thing again tomorrow in front of the camera... "

"is it?"

The girl did not tell Tsuchio's lie, she took off her earphones and smiled: "Then let's start with me. My name is Koshimi Nanatsuki. I am a third-year high school student and was born in Fukuoka. Although I am a high school detective representing the south this time, I am not a high school detective." I'm just a newbie, and I've only solved about 100 cases, so please be merciful."

The long-haired man on the side said: "I am Junya Tokitsu. Although he was born in Tokyo, he grew up in Hokkaido. He is naturally a representative of the north. He has solved more than 300 cases and was arrested or prosecuted." There are about 250 prisoners, but there are also cases of prisoners fleeing before arrest or committing suicide in fear of crime.”

Hattori said with a smile, unwilling to be outdone, "My name is Hattori Heiji. I am a fairly well-known detective in Kansai. The number of incidents I have solved... oh, it's probably more than 1000. I can't count them!"

Lin Xiaofan was stunned for a moment, Hattori Heiji was really good at boasting.Forget about bragging, this bragging is too false.

"So you are Hattori Heiji," the handsome yellow-haired boy looked at Hattori with interest, "I often hear my father talk about you. I heard that you are a detective who has very keen senses no matter what kind of things he faces... …”

Hattori raised his thick eyebrows and said provocatively: "What about you? How many incidents have you solved?"

Hattori Heijishin said, I have already reached my limit, you can't be better than me.

"Well..." Detective Hakuba pretended to be recalling, "I am Detective Hakuba, representing the participating detectives from overseas Japan. I guess there should be about 500 items..."

"What? It's only half of me!" Hattori Heiji said proudly.

"Yes, but...this is limited to Japan..." Hakuba Tan flipped his yellow hair.

"What do you mean?" Hattori Heiji looked at Hakuba Tan in surprise.

"I have been studying in the UK for a long time," Bai Matan said calmly, "because my mother-in-law always took over cases for me without permission and only occasionally returned to Japan."

"Really?" Hattori looked at the stinking Hakuba Detective with a stiff smile on his face and annoyance written on his forehead.It is obviously the opponent's Versailles, with superior skills.

"Where are you two?" Everyone looked at Lin Xiaofan and Kudo Shinichi.

Kudo Shinichi hesitated and couldn't speak clearly, obviously not understanding the aesthetics of detective Versailles.He looked at Lin Xiaofan like he was asking for help, as if you should hurry up and go to Versailles!

Lin Xiaofan said: "Every case means a crime, which is not something to brag about."

Kudo Shinichi echoed: "That's it... do you want to say that crime is everywhere in Japan and detectives are needed everywhere?"

Everyone was stunned, looking like you two were really boring.

In the wooden house hotel, the high school detectives who gathered together returned to their respective rooms. The rooms were in tatters and there were many traces of repairs, and no one seemed to take care of them. ...

Tsuchio took Lin Xiaofan and Yukiko to the corresponding room. Lin Xiaofan opened the window and looked outside.

"Whose hotel does this belong to?"

"Well," Tsutsumi was a little nervous and sweating, "I don't know too much. I heard that it was a villa that a rich man didn't want and rented it out cheaply... Detective Lin, you guys have a rest first. Mr. Kotani is in the kitchen. Prepare dinner here, and when it’s ready, I’ll ask him to call you.”

Kudo Shinichi looked at the environment and complained with the same dissatisfaction: "The Detective Koshien held by Nippon TV Station, the environment is too bad."

"I'll take my leave first."

Hammertail left in a hurry.

After Tsuchio left, Kudo Shinichi looked at Lin Xiaofan: "Why are you not surprised at all when you see me?"

Lin Xiaofan said: "I knew right away that you are not Kudo Shinichi, but Kudo Yukiko."

"Hey, eh? How did you recognize me?"

Yukiko found out that she had been seen through by Lin Xiaofan, so she stopped hiding her true identity.

"Sister Yukiko, I have left a mark on your body, so you can recognize it at a glance."

"Seal?" Yukiko was confused, "What do you mean?"

"Sister Yukiko, don't you understand? You have become my possession."

"Ah...Lin Xiaofan, you are so annoying!"

Yukiko puffed up her cheeks angrily.

……

"Bang bang!" When it was dinner time, Jiagu Liansan came over and called the people in the room to come out for dinner.

"Sorry, dinner is ready. Could you please move to the dining room?" Mr. Kotani said with a smile.

"Ah, no problem." Lin Xiaofan agreed immediately. There was nothing wrong with him staying in the room anyway.

"Speaking of which, this cabin is really old." On the way to the dining room, Lin Xiaofan looked at the surrounding furnishings and subconsciously expressed his thoughts.

"It looks like many places have been repaired." Yukiko also disliked this place, "Whose house is this?"

"I don't know, it seems like a rich man didn't plan to live there anymore, so he rented it out cheaply." Mr. Kotani explained.

"By the way, has that girl gone to the dining room?" Tokijin Junya walked over and asked. After changing his clothes, he still looked a little bookish.

"Girls?" On the other side, Hattori Heiji also came out of the room, "Are there any girls here?"

"Yes, but she hasn't come out yet. I was about to call her." Mr. Kotani was still smiling, but because of his appearance, that smile was not very friendly.

"So that guy is a woman?" Hattori Heiji finally realized.

"It's obvious at a glance. It's hard to imagine that you are a famous detective in Kansai." Junya Tokatsu said provocatively.

Hattori Heiji said: "However, it is really hard to imagine that she is also a high school detective. Our school has very strict clothing requirements. The length of the skirt must be three centimeters below the knee, the scarf must be symmetrical, the socks must be black, and the hair must be permed. Definitely not, trimming your eyebrows is the same as dropping out of school.”

At this time, Mr. Kotani called out Qigui Yuesui, and everyone came to the restaurant together.

"By the way, Mr. Director, aren't you here for dinner?" Hattori Heiji looked around and found that the fat director did not appear.

"It's strange. I just went to his room, but there was no response, so I thought he had already come over." Mr. Kotani looked confused.

"Huh?" As soon as these words came out, the detectives present were all alert, and they could only ask, "Can you please take us to his room?"

Then, the group returned to the corridor on the second floor.

"Mr. Tsuchio, dinner is ready." Mr. Kotani called while knocking on the door, but the person at the door did not respond.

. "Damn, it seems like the door is locked tightly." Hattori reached out and twisted the door handle, but the door still didn't move. "Could he have died of sleep?" He took back his hand, but was shocked to find that his hand was stained with scarlet.

"It's blood!" Hattori put his palm to his nose and smelled it, his face turned ugly. "There was blood on the door handle."

"Mr. Jiagu, get the key quickly!" Yueshui Qigui shouted quickly.

"No, this door is locked from the inside and cannot be opened from the outside." Mr. Kotani looked embarrassed.

"If the structure of the house is the same, then there will also be two windows?" Lin Xiaofan reminded everyone.

"Let's take a look at what's going on inside from the window?" Hakuba Tan and Tokizu Junya were about to run to the door when they found that Hattori had already started hitting the door frame.

"Hey. What are you doing?!" Hakuba Tan frowned, and his evaluation of Hattori suddenly dropped a notch.
