Chapter 16
【"This reason feels weird? Did Shinichi use the same reason?" Sonoko showed a puzzled expression on her face, and Conan was sweating coldly after hearing this. Xiaolan was also slightly stunned, and then subconsciously looked at Conan, but Conan waved his hands in panic and said, "Didn't we say that we would go eat cake after school today? Let's go now."】
【"That's right, Xiaolan, let me tell you, the cake shop today tastes very good." Sonoko was easily diverted, and Conan was relieved at this time. The three of them walked on the road and went to a cake shop called "Asakawa Cake Shop". 】
【After ordering several cakes and sitting down, a young woman in a chef's uniform came out and chatted with the guests about some things that should be improved with a smile. She soon walked to Xiaolan and the others. Seeing this, Sonoko smiled and said, "There is nothing to improve. It's delicious. The cakes made by the chef are really delicious."】
【"I'm Mai Asakawa, just call me Asakawa." Mai Asakawa smiled and said to several people, "I just accepted the job in the store these few days, so I'm worried that the taste of the cakes I make is not very good."】
【"It's wonderful, but Miss Asakawa is so great." Sonoko praised with a smile, while Mai Asakawa smiled reluctantly, "Actually, my father was responsible for making cakes a week ago, but my father went abroad and I don't know when he will come back."】
【"Miss Asakawa's cooking skills are also very good." Xiaolan smiled, and after hearing Xiaolan's praise, Mai Asakawa just continued to smile reluctantly, "I'm still far from it. Well, my father's cooking skills are good, but..."】
【"What happened?" Seeing that Asakawa Mai was a little reluctant, Xiaolan asked worriedly, and Asakawa Mai hesitated and said, "Actually, I'm worried that something happened to my father, and I'm going to find a detective to investigate."】
【Conan, who was eating cake and didn't interrupt, suddenly looked up at Asakawa Mai after hearing the word "detective". Sonoko on the side smiled and said, "Then Miss Asakawa, you can talk to us directly. I'm the 'Queen of Reasoning Sonoko'. As for Xiaolan, her father is the famous detective Maori Kogoro. In the past, Xiaolan often helped Uncle Maori solve cases. And this kid is a famous 'Kid Killer'"】
【While talking, Sonoko also directly arrested Conan, and the arrested Conan showed a helpless look with dead fish eyes and said helplessly, 'Sonoko is really a gossip... But speaking of it, it seems that Kid has not had any information for several months. ’】
【“Eh! The daughter of a famous detective?” Although Mai Asakawa didn’t seem to know what ‘Kid Killer’ or the Queen of Reasoning was, she knew about the famous detective Maori Kogoro. Her eyes lit up and she immediately said to Xiaolan: “I want to investigate my father’s situation no matter what.”】
【“Don’t worry, sister Asakawa, let’s talk in another place.” Conan noticed that many customers in the store were looking at this side, and Xiaolan had never received such a client, so she suggested. Soon everyone moved to the room inside, and Mai Asakawa also told her commission. 】
【“It’s like this, a week ago, my father received a commission, saying that they wanted him to go to ‘Totsuki Academy’ to make a few dishes, but he never came back. We also contacted him, and they said that because the cakes he made were too delicious, they recommended that he go abroad to study for a while.”】
【“Totsuki Academy, is that a very famous cooking school? Did your father Asakawa graduate from there?” Sonoko seemed to know this academy very well, and asked Mai Asakawa curiously. ]
Chapter 4 Totsuki Academy?
【“Not really, my father learned how to make cakes abroad, and it has little to do with Totsuki Academy.” Asakawa Mai shook her head and said, “Although I have contacted my father, no one has ever answered his phone. He does send us some messages every night, but I can tell that they are not from my father.”】
【“Then didn’t you call the police?” Conan asked curiously, but Asakawa Mai nodded and said, “Of course I called the police, but the police investigated and said that my father was abroad and there was no problem at all. But you see, the way my father chatted with me before and recently is different.”】
【While talking, Asakawa Mai put the phone in front of several people. The previous communication seemed to be a person who cared about his daughter, and the following was a mechanical reply. 】
【"So I want to ask you to help me understand my father's current situation?" Asakawa Mai bowed deeply. Seeing this, Xiaolan and Sonoko immediately helped Asakawa Mai up. Sonoko said, "This commission is handed over to us. It just so happens that I haven't been to Totsuki Academy for a big meal for a long time. What do you think, Xiaolan?"】
【Xiaolan subconsciously glanced at Conan, who was watching the conversation in Asakawa Mai's mobile phone. Seeing Xiaolan looking at him, he nodded slightly to show his agreement. Xiaolan agreed. 】
【“Great.” Mai Asakawa heaved a sigh of relief after hearing that the three were willing to take on the commission. When the three left, she packed several cakes for them. Sonoko took the bus back, while Xiaolan and Conan walked home. On the way, Xiaolan asked worriedly: "Conan, is it true that Miss Asakawa's father?"】
【“Any conclusion without investigation is false. We need to investigate.” Conan shook his head, but Conan also felt that either Mai Asakawa's father was trapped somewhere or had been killed. Conan was more inclined to the first one, because if he was killed, then there would be no need to send messages to Mai Asakawa every day. Even if you want to create an alibi, it will take too long. 】
【“Then let's go together tomorrow. Speaking of which, I've only heard of it. I haven't been to Totsuki Academy. Conan, have you been there?" Xiaolan nodded, looking optimistic, and smiled while looking at Conan with her hands behind her back. 】
【"I've been there once. Last month, Xiaochen went to Totsuki Academy for work. Philip and I went there together. To be honest, the food there is really unforgettable." Conan was a little greedy when he said this. 】
【"Should we call Xiaochen?" Xiaolan asked, and Conan became a little embarrassed and said, "No, last time I involved Xiaochen because of the money Gaia memory, Huiyuan has been glaring at me for several days, and I don't dare to talk to her."】
【"What about Philip?" Xiaolan asked with a smile, and Conan hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded and said, "Well, let's call Philip, the organization in Totsuki Academy should not infiltrate."】
"Of course, our school is closed management." Nakiri Senzaemon showed a satisfied smile, but he was also a little worried. If the father of Miss Asakawa Mai in the video really had something happen in Totsuki Academy, it would still have an impact on the school.
He has also studied the content of the videos in the past few days. They are all real and not fake. Besides, no one can fake videos into the projected sky. It is not bad to be able to see the future content through some videos now.
"Mo Chen? If only I had tried harder at that time." After sighing, Nakiri Senzaemon picked up a document and took a look.
It was the document of Mo Chen's initial promotion.
Although Totsuki Academy is a culinary academy, it still has other normal subjects. Moreover, Nakiri Senzaemon is also quite clear about the fact that Mo Chen's five senses are more sensitive, because he knows Dr. Agasa. One of her granddaughters likes molecular cooking, and many equipment repairs are repaired by Dr. Agasa.
When he heard that Mo Chen was going to change schools, he went to Dr. Agasa, but Dr. Agasa let Mo Chen choose for himself.
"Totsuki Academy, I heard that the taste is very good. I really want to try it once." Shirogane Miyuki also looked at the content in the picture, sighed, and then swept his eyes over Kaguya.
He had two invitation tickets drawn yesterday, which allowed him to visit Totsuki Academy with another person and taste food. He wanted to invite Kaguya, but he couldn't say it.
So a new round of war began again.
But regardless of when the war here ends and what the result is, the video continues to play.
["Splash..." When Conan pushed open the door of the room, Conan was greeted by a bucket of water. Conan, who was covered with water, wiped the water stains on his face in a daze. The one who splashed water was naturally Philip. Philip also changed into a set of ethnic minority costumes in China. He held a washbasin in his hand and said: "Conan, do you know the Water Splashing Festival? According to my investigation..."]
["Ah... Philip!!!" And Conan was crazy. After a fight, the room was cleaned up. Philip sat in front of the chair and ate cake, while Conan looked at Philip and talked about going to Totsuki Academy. ]
["Go, you must go. Last time I just saw some simple dishes. I also heard..." Philip said here, turning the pages of the book in his hand. 】
【"Ding-ling-ling..." Conan's phone rang, and Philip turned around and read a book. Conan looked at his phone and answered the call: "Hello, Officer Megure? Is there another case of doping? Eh... isn't it?"】
【Conan was operating the computer and hung up the phone soon. A lot of content was printed on the printer beside him. He opened it and read it. Xiaolan didn't disturb Conan. But Conan frowned tightly: "Xiaolan, I may not be able to go with you tomorrow."】
【"Huh? What's wrong?" Xiaolan looked up at Conan curiously. Conan came over with a document and said: "Just now, Officer Megure sent me a case content and needs me to investigate with him tomorrow, so I can't go with him."】
Chapter 47 Low EQ
【"Just now, Officer Megure sent me a case and said that he needs me to investigate it tomorrow, so I can't go with him."】
【"Is that so? You can't go with me." Xiaolan looked a little disappointed, and then Xiaolan looked at Philip: "What about Philip?"】
["As for Philip, I'll go with you guys every day. Although Philip understands common sense, he still does some impolite things sometimes, so I'll leave it to you." Conan looked at Philip for a while and then said to Xiaolan. ]
["Yes, I understand."]
"This Conan's EQ is too low. Miss Xiaolan obviously wants to go with Conan."
"No, it should be said that she wants to go with Kudo Shinichi, but Kudo Shinichi has become Conan, so she still wants to go with Kudo Shinichi."
"That's right, that's right, the EQ is too low."
Obviously many people have seen that Xiaolan likes Conan, or Shinichi, and this time she wants to go to Totsuki Academy with Conan, but Conan didn't go with Xiaolan because of the case.
The EQ is worrying.
"Edogawa is still the same." Seeing Conan in the video giving up on going to Totsuki Academy the next day, Xiao Ai shook her head helplessly. Mo Chen smiled and said, "After all, he is the kind of person who talks about Sherlock Holmes with his female friends on dates. Do you think he has a high EQ?"
"...As expected of him." Xiao Ai was stunned for a moment, touched her and complained.
The video content is still going on.
[The next morning, Conan left home early, and Xiaolan took Philip to the luxury car of Sonoko's family. Sonoko said embarrassedly in the car: "Xiaolan, I'm sorry, if we go directly, it will be troublesome to get in. It's easier to get in this way."]
["It's okay, but I have to trouble you, Sonoko." Xiaolan smiled, and Philip, who was sitting in the front seat, suddenly paused, then put down the book in his hand helplessly, and turned to look at Xiaolan behind him with a helpless look on his face: "Xiaolan, I'll trouble you later."]
["Huh?" Xiaolan was looking at the situation outside the window. After hearing Philip's words, she turned her head curiously, and Philip pointed helplessly at the drive that emerged from his waist. Then his expression became slightly serious and he took out the green Gaia memory. ]
["Cyclone"]
[What happened? We pushed the time forward a long distance. Early in the morning, Conan took the documents and rode his scooter out: "Are there so many missing cases recently? More than a dozen people have disappeared in half a month? Let's investigate first."]
[Apparently, last night, Officer Megure handed Conan a list of missing cases, hoping that Conan would help investigate, because it was very likely that it was done by dopants. So Conan looked at the information on it and went to the warehouse closest to his home: "Mr. Kobayashi, the owner of the warehouse, disappeared three days ago. Because he has no family, did his friends help call the police?"]
[This is a large warehouse on the coast. Even in the early morning, there are still many people busy. Conan found a reason to sneak in and found Mr. Kobayashi's warehouse. After sneaking in through the small door, Conan observed: "Here? Is it a warehouse for ingredients?"]
[The entire warehouse is densely packed with many high-quality ingredients. Conan turned on the watch on his wrist that looked like a toy spider, and it lit up like a flashlight, illuminating a corner of the dim warehouse. Suddenly Conan covered his watch with his hand, rolled over, and rolled into a corner. Soon a voice rang out: "Do you know how precious my time is? How dare you be late?" 】
【The voice sounded a little gloomy, and the voice was very slow. Another figure was very scared: "I'm really sorry, sir, I didn't bring you that bluefin tuna." 】
【"Waste... You can't even accomplish this, there's no need for you to exist." 】
【"Wait, sir... Wait a minute... Ah..." The terrified cry startled Conan, and he no longer hid in the dark, but ran directly to the place where the sound came from, but he saw only a strange man, with a red head like a cream squeeze can, and the main body was green and gradually turned yellow upwards. It looked very inconsistent. 】
【"Huh? Someone actually broke in? A child?" The doped body was very surprised to see Conan running over, and then raised his right hand, and his right hand turned into a gun-like style. 】
【"Philip, it's the doped!" When Conan ran out, the driver was already on his waist. When he ran towards the doped, his body had quickly changed back to Shinichi. 】
【"Joker"】
【"henshin!" The two people who turned into Kamen Rider W suddenly increased their speed, and the gun on the wrist of the doped also launched an attack. The bullet was like cream. After Kamen Rider W dodged several times, he was still hit and was knocked out. 】
【"Child?" But what Conan and the doped didn't realize was that in another corner of the factory warehouse, the enemy's cadre, that is, Nazca's Bourbon, was full of surprise. He just saw clearly that Conan turned into Shinichi when he put on the driver. At the same time, he also saw the other party transformed into Kamen Rider. 】
【On this side, Kamen Rider W, who was knocked out of the warehouse, rolled on the ground and immediately replaced two new Gaia memories. 】
【“Heat Trigger” W transformed into a flame trigger, took off the trigger gun on his chest and aimed at the doped body in front of him, and fired without any hesitation. The flame bullet came out of the trigger gun and hit the arm of the doped body directly, and the doped body screamed in pain. 】
【“Damn, fighting is not my strong point.” After the doped body made such a sound, the gun in his hand was aimed at the Kamen Rider W in front of him and fired again, but this time it was not a bullet, but a water gun, but it was cream. 】
【The cream directly covered W, and soon the flame came out of the cream. The powerful flame directly melted all the cream, revealing the Kamen Rider W inside, but the doped body disappeared. 】
Chapter 48 Bourbon!
【“Damn, where did it go?” Looking at the disappearing doped body in front of him, Kamen Rider W stepped on the ground very unhappily. However, at this time, a police siren sounded in his ears. Seeing this, Conan pulled out the Gaia memory from his waist, canceled the transformation, and turned back into a child. 】
【In the dark, Bourbon, who had observed the entire battle, still had a gloomy expression on his face, but after hearing the police siren, he retreated into the darkness. 】
【"Huh? Conan?" On the other side, Conan met an acquaintance, a police officer named Shiratori. He looked at Conan with some surprise: "Why are you here?"】
【"Um... I made an appointment with Genta and the others to play hide-and-seek today, but I seem to have remembered the wrong place, ahahaha..." Conan was trying to fool around, and Officer Shiratori didn't bother, but said a few words to his subordinates, and then his subordinates left first, and Officer Shiratori looked at Conan and said: "Conan, it's not very safe here, go back quickly. Otherwise, Detective Maori and Miss Xiaolan will be worried."】
【"Not very safe? Why? I remember that Officer Shiratori is a police officer in the third department of forced crimes, responsible for robbery and murder cases, right? Did a murder happen here?" Conan asked Officer Shiratori in front of him with some curiosity. 】
【"That's not the case. Due to some special crimes recently, there are not enough police officers from other departments, so I was assigned to help in other subjects. I came here today because of a smuggling case." Officer Shiratori did not hide the content of his actions and explained: "Recently, a large number of precious ingredients have been stolen or smuggled into our country. I came here because of some intelligence."】
【"Smuggled ingredients?" Conan tilted his head and looked a little confused, and Officer Shiratori on the opposite side nodded and said: "Well, for example, rare bluefin tuna, and a large number of matsutake mushrooms and other expensive ingredients have been smuggled into the country."】
【"Is that so." After Conan nodded to show that he understood, he did not intend to continue chatting with Officer Shiratori, but quickly left the warehouse area, sorting out what he saw today and taking out the documents. 】
【"Among the missing people, some are shop owners and chefs, and the others are thieves and the like? There is nothing in common between the shops. There are no people who know each other, which is really troublesome..." He ran to a grocery store to buy some snacks, sat on the chair outside, and looked through the documents. Conan felt that his head was about to explode. 】
【"Can we sit together? There are no seats anywhere else." At this time, a man with a sunny face but dark skin came over with some snacks in his hand and asked Conan with a smile. There is indeed only one seat here. 】
【Conan agreed, of course, but Conan did not expect that the dark-skinned and sunny man in front of him was Bourbon, the Nazca dope himself, who had fought with him several times before. 】
【"What are you looking at, kid? Your eyebrows are tight together?" Bourbon, who looked very familiar, asked Conan while holding a snack. Conan glanced at Bourbon and smiled like a child, "This is the assignment my uncle gave me. He said he would take me to the amusement park only after I finish it."]
["Is that so? That's really amazing. Let me treat you to some ice cream." Bourbon didn't rush to talk about the document in Conan's hand. Instead, he smiled and handed Conan an ice cream. "Although eating ice cream early in the morning in autumn is not good for your health, I can't help it. I just like to eat it early in the morning. And it's not that cold, right?"]
["Actually, I like it too." Conan smiled and didn't refuse. At the same time, he was also sighing that the big brother in front of him was really nice. Did he come to comfort him when he saw that he was frowning? 】
【"By the way, I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Toru Amuro." Bourbon introduced himself, and Conan on the opposite side also introduced himself: "My name is Edogawa Conan, and I'm a detective."】
【"Detective?" After hearing Conan's words, Bourbon seemed to be stunned and then laughed: "What a coincidence, I'm also a detective, Mr. Little Detective."】
"What is the purpose of that Bourbon?" Looking at Bourbon who was talking happily with him in the picture, Conan felt a little confused. The previous transformation was seen by Bourbon. Was the other party confirming his identity? Or was he doing something?
"First it was worry, then ice cream, and now he's saying he's also a detective to attract my attention?" Conan speculated, while Maori Kogoro, who was drinking, carefully watched the video and wrote down Bourbon.
On the other side, Xiao Ai also frowned as she watched the video: "Bourbon has always been mysterious in the organization. Few people know his identity and real name. He is a lone ranger."
"It seems that such a lone ranger has his own personal purpose to find Conan." Mo Chen nodded when he saw this, and then he held his chin with one hand and said: "I hope that idiot Conan won't let it slip when he talks about Sherlock Holmes with others."
As a childhood sweetheart, Mo Chen knew that once Shinichi talked about what he liked, and if he didn't take too much precautions, it would be easy to be tricked.
The main reason was that there was no one around except the elders to talk about this.
Compared with detective novels, Xiaolan was more interested in housework, after all, there was an old father to take care of at home. As for Mo Chen, he occasionally reads detective novels, but he doesn't like them that much.
So whenever someone talks about Sherlock Holmes, Conan will be very happy.
[…Hey, Mr. Amuro, do you also like "The Sign of Sherlock Holmes"? I like it too." Sure enough, after chatting with Toru Amuro for a few words in the picture, the topic shifted to Sherlock Holmes, and Conan suddenly became happy. ]
[Bourbon didn't seem to be in a hurry. After continuing to chat with Conan about Sherlock Holmes, a breeze blew and blew away the document in Conan's hand. Bourbon helped to collect it, then took a look and smiled: "Conan, your uncle is testing your ability as a detective."]
["Well, my uncle gave me this document, saying that there may be related contacts in it. But I haven't found all the common points yet."]
Chapter 49 Moon Feast!
【"Well, my uncle gave me this file, saying that there might be related contacts in it. But I haven't found all the common points yet." Conan said, touching the file on the table and arranging it. 】
【"Then can I take a look? I can give you some suggestions. So that you can go to the amusement park as soon as possible." Bourbon asked, and Conan, who had now put down his guard, nodded and said, "Of course."】
【Bourbon looked at it slowly, and then showed a confident smile: "I roughly understand what's going on."】
【"Huh!" Conan looked at Bourbon in surprise, but Bourbon smiled and said, "It's just because I took over a few commissions not long ago, and I'm surprised to see it here. Conan, your uncle is so amazing that he actually used the situation in reality to make inferences for you."】
【"Is that so...Ahaha Ha." Conan laughed awkwardly, then looked at Bourbon and said, "So, Mr. Amuro, what do you think? What are the circumstances of these missing cases?"]
["Conan, you are too eager to find their common points, so you forgot some things. These people do not have any connection, but you forgot what most of their occupations are."]
["Chef." Conan took a closer look. This data file was sent to Conan by Inspector Megure. The data in it is naturally the most detailed, but there are indeed quite a few chefs in it, and there are also quite a few who were chefs before and changed industries later, so Conan really didn't think in this direction. 】
【"Yes, they are all chefs, or former chefs, with good cooking skills, but they gave up their jobs as chefs a few months ago. In addition to these, if we arrange and combine those who are not chefs, then it is..."】
【Bourbon did not continue to speak, but Conan was not stupid. Soon a picture appeared in his mind. He quickly flipped through the files to confirm that he had obtained a piece of information. Finally, his face became serious: "Could it be?"】
【"Dinglingling..." At this time, Conan's mobile phone rang. Conan took a look and answered it immediately: "What happened to Xiaolan?"】
【"Oh no, Conan, Miss Asakawa is missing." Xiaolan's anxious voice came from the other side of the phone. This made Conan stand up directly: "What did you say?"】
【We once again turned our attention back to Xiaolan. When Philip opened his eyes, he had arrived at Totsuki Academy. There seemed to be some activities at Totsuki Academy today, and there were still many people. After getting off the bus, Xiaolan asked Philip quietly: "Philip, is Conan okay?"]
["Yeah, just a minor character." Philip nodded, then moved his nose: "Wow, it feels like there are a lot of delicious food."]
