A Detective: I Believe in Science

Chapter 106
Before coming, Noah planned to have fun in Osaka for two days. Since Hattori wanted to take them home for a big meal, he would naturally not refuse.

As the existence with the highest police rank in Osaka, Hattori Heizo's home is not as luxurious as imagined.

"Master Minister is a man of taste at a glance. The design of this yard is full of elegance."

Although the uncle has never met Hattori Heizo, he feels like he has been friends with him for a long time. He introduced the garden of Hattori's house from time to time.

"He Ye, why did you follow me, aren't you afraid that your family will worry?"

"Don't worry, my dad will come today too, don't worry about it, hum."

The two seemed to be natural enemies, they were either arguing or on the road of arguing when they met.

Hattori Heizo and Toyama Ginshiro were already waiting in the house.

"It's really troublesome for you, Minister, to wait for us here specially."

The uncle greeted them enthusiastically. Hattori Heizo has a high status, but he has no pretensions and is approachable.

Walking into the house, seeing Hattori's mother preparing dinner, He Ye and Xiao Lan hurried forward to help.

"Auntie, this is the daughter of Maori detective, Maolilan, you can call him Xiaolan."

"I've heard Hattori mention it, he's such a good boy."

Xiaolan was a little shy when she heard Hattori Shizuka's compliment, and quickly praised the other party in turn.

……

"Mr. Maori, what happened this afternoon is really to thank you for helping our police solve the case."

"Hattori is also good, he helped a lot this afternoon."

"Compared to you, it's still far behind."

Hattori Heizo's attitude towards the uncle was unexpectedly friendly, and he did not hesitate to praise him.

He never refuses to praise the uncle, coupled with the stimulation of alcohol, the uncle laughed immodestly.

"Hui Yuan, why are you dragging me?"

"I can't get enough."

"Oh... forgot your height now."

The food on Hattori's table is a certain distance from the bench, and it is difficult for children to touch it.

From just now, Huiyuan has been beckoning Noah to help him, but unexpectedly, this soul kept eating without looking up.

Conan on the opposite side also has his friend Hattori to help.

"Noah, I heard from Conan that you have a very high level of kendo, do you want to try it later?"

"Uh... No need, it will be fine if you get hurt."

"It's okay, I'll take care of myself."

...Okay, I don’t know if I will give you a step, and I don’t know how to win a championship. I don’t know how high the sky is, and I will teach you a lesson.

"Pingji, this kid once defeated all the staff of the Metropolitan Police Department with a sword. This friend named Noah, you have to be careful."

"Well, thank you and Papa Ye, I will be careful."

Although Toyama Ginshiro was mentioning Noah, his tone was full of pride.

……

After dinner, in the courtyard of Hattori's house, Hattori and Noah stood opposite each other, surrounded by onlookers, who were equally curious about this competition.

"Use these two swords."

Hattori Heizo walked out of the room, took two wooden swords in his hand and threw them to the two of them respectively.

The momentum of the two who got the sword suddenly changed, and the quiet and peaceful atmosphere turned into tension and depression.

Hattori looked at Noah in surprise, he didn't expect Noah to change so much after getting the sword.

The boy with a smile on his face was no longer there, replaced by a fierce expression.

"Please!"

Pointing at the void with the sword, Noah signaled Hattori to start, and he was ready.

Without hesitation, Hattori attacked Noah with his hands and long face like a gust of wind, using all his strength in every move.

"Why is Hattori so careless? Although the sword is made of wood, it can still cause harm when it touches people."

Hattori Shizuka couldn't see the doorway between the two, but he could also tell from the expression on Hattori's face that his child didn't hold back.

Hattori in the field couldn't tell because he thought it was just a coincidence that he was subdued by Noah last time, so he dared to speak out to challenge the competition this time.

Facts have proved that it was not a coincidence, it was a fact, he really couldn't beat Noah, every move of his was easily resolved by the opponent.

In the eyes of the ignorant, he beat Noah, but in the eyes of the knowledgeable, it was another feeling.

"Heiji is not that child's opponent. There is a big difference in the level of swordsmanship between the two."

"My lord, what I see is that Hattori has been pressing Noah to fight, but Noah will soon be unable to hold on."

The uncle looked puzzled, and the only ones who could understand the contest between the two were Hattori Heizo, who often used swords, and his old friend Toyama Ginshiro.

"I'll know right away."

As soon as the words fell, Noah, who had been on the defensive, began to gradually turn into an offensive, transforming into Hattori struggling to resist.

The reason why Noah didn't defeat Hattori immediately just now was because he wanted to see the difference between Hattori's kendo and his own.

Hattori's kendo is very different from his own Iai. Iai is fast, accurate, and ruthless, the kind that kills people.

And Hattori's kendo is more like a long stream of water, once an offensive is launched, it hits like a gust of wind and rain.

Of course, the current Hattori must not have reached the level he said, at most it has a prototype.

After seeing through Hattori's swordsmanship, Noah didn't hold back any more, and Iai's swordsmanship was displayed. Before Hattori and everyone present could react, he settled the battle with three strikes, five divisions and two divisions.

"Forgive my eyesight, I didn't expect to see this kind of swordsmanship again. It's really an ancient swordsmanship."

Toyama Ginshiro sighed, he didn't expect that there are still people who know Iai Kendo, he thought it had been lost.

"Dad, why do I feel that Hattori was too careless to be defeated by Noah."

He Ye's doubts represented most of the people present. They really didn't see any tricks, they just felt that Hattori was suddenly defeated.

"You have never practiced swords, and you are still young. It is normal to not understand. I think Hattori should feel it himself."

Hattori in the field couldn't accept that his proud kendo was defeated so easily.

Unwilling but helpless, judging from Noah's offensive just now, although he has no power to parry, the opponent still did not use his full strength.

"I... lost, your kendo level is indeed very high."

"Generally average, the third in the world."

...Give you a nose and you can put it on your face, which is very interesting.

"I'm just being careless, why are you so proud?"

Hearing these words, Hattori's tone became a little tougher, and Hattori Heizo on the side just wanted to reprimand him.

"Swish"

A sword shadow flashed in front of everyone's eyes, and the sword in Noah's hand had returned to his waist again, as if it wasn't him who shot just now.

Everyone shook their heads and observed without knowing why, but they didn't find any changes around them.

"You pretend..."

Before he could finish speaking, the big tree next to Hattori split into two with a bang and fell to the ground. The broken part was as smooth as a mirror.

Everyone looked at Noah in horror, this power and speed exceeded their cognition.

Although Conan knew that Noah was good at swordsmanship, he didn't expect it to be so high. Is it too late for him to learn it now?

"Noah, you..."

"No need to exaggerate, I'm used to it."

Noah refused, but there was indeed a look of waiting for praise on his face, and Hattori's expression was extremely tangled.

"I mean it's my dad's favorite tree."

…Embarrassment, capitalized embarrassment was printed on Noah's face, and only then did he notice that this tree was a little different from the other trees in the yard.

Look at Hattori Heizo looking at the tree on the ground with a tangled expression, how could he not understand that he got into trouble.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't know this would happen, I will compensate you for being old."

Looking at Noah who bowed and apologized, with a correct attitude, Hattori Heizo took a deep breath.

"Forget it, let's just fall down. It's just a tree. It's an honor to be cut off by such swordsmanship."

"You are overrated."

... Hattori Heizo was choked, does this person not understand good words, I am trying to find a way for you.

However, Hattori Heizo's praise made everyone around react and discuss.

"Your kid's kendo level is a bit amazing, no wonder Conan always said that you can protect him."

"Haha, so-so, the third best in the world."

... You're on the third bar today, right? If you don't say this sentence, you can't do it, and let no one continue.

Haibara quietly looked at Noah in the crowd, remembering what he said in the arena to protect himself, a gleam flashed in his eyes.

The uncle and the others originally planned to stay in a hotel outside tonight and not disturb Hattori's house, but were stopped by Hattori Heizo.

"How can this work? Since Detective Mori has come to Osaka, I should entertain you, and I still have something to trouble Detective Mori."

Hearing that Hattori Heizo had troubled him, the uncle patted his chest excitedly to express his heart.
