Conan: The Mechanic

Later that day, at Tachibana House, the members of the boy detective team who had left school and Sonoko gathered around Maurilan.

"Look, look, this is the picture of you winning the Kanto Karate Competition before," Sonoko reminded Xiaolan by holding a thick photo album and pointing to a photo on one page. "Your opponent at that time should be the guy from Cuphu High School, do you still have any impression? Although you almost capsized in the gutter, you still won in the end!"

"..." Mao Lilan's expression was very embarrassed, and finally, after thinking hard and still to no avail, he shook his head apologetically. "Sorry, I still don't have the slightest impression."

"..." Suzuki Sonoko's expression was rather embarrassed. "I don't even remember this, then... let's try this?"

Saying this, she turned the album to another page and pointed to one of the photos. "This, do you still have an impression?"

It was a group photo taken by Mao Lilan while taking Sonoko out for a walk with her boyfriend. Unlike the introverted Mao Lilan, Sonoko put an elbow on Kudo and bent over to make room for the two girls behind him. Shinichi built his very proud smile on Kudo Shinichi's bitter gourd face.

"Uh..." Even the client who has become smaller has even made a moan that can't be recalled.

However, apart from the gloating narrator and the participants whose past was unbearable, Mao Lilan, who had no response to everything, was abnormal again.

"He..." Maurilan murmured, staring at Kudo Shinichi's bitter face. "Shinichi... Sonoko, is Shinichi his name?"

"Do you remember him?" Sonoko asked in surprise, and Conan's face also showed a surprised expression. "He's Kudo Shinichi, your husband, do you remember him?"

"I don't know how I said his name, but... it suddenly flashed in my mind." Maurilan looked at the portrait of Kudo Shinichi with a complicated expression. "I don't know why, but looking at him feels very familiar, and... very reassuring, the kind of security that can entrust a lot of things to him."

"Can you call your brother Shinichi back?" Ayumi asked. "I remember that Brother Xinyi is not traveling all over the country now, handling cases? Should he be able to call him back? Maybe after seeing him, Sister Xiaolan will remember everything?"

"If you can call that **** over, how can you spend so much time doing these things!" Sonoko said dissatisfied. "I contacted that guy before, but he didn't answer the phone!"

There was a somewhat helpless expression on Chiyu's face, and at the same time she subconsciously looked in Conan's direction.

The person he was looking at was sitting on the sofa with his head down without saying a word. Only the fingernails were deeply embedded in the skin of his arms, and the blood marks that were slowly torn apart expressed his current pain.

"Conan," at this moment, Mao Lilan suddenly asked mysteriously. "You...can you tell me about the Kudo Shinichi you know?"

"Huh?" Not only Conan, but Qianyu was also taken aback.

"Sister Xiaolan, why are you asking me this question?" Conan's fingernails stopped tearing, but pierced deeper into the skin, forcibly suppressing his emotions, he asked.

"Because..." Mao Lilan showed a very gentle expression. "Actually, I just wanted to ask a random person, and then I chose you. As for why I chose you... I don't know, maybe there is no special reason for it? Then, what kind of person is Kudo Shinichi? Woolen cloth?"

Silence, the whole audience was silent, until Qianyu even felt the atmosphere was a little depressed, Conan suddenly stood up and said this while walking towards the small refrigerator in the living room.

"I think Brother Shinichi should be someone... who likes you very much." Standing in front of the refrigerator with his back to everyone, Conan stepped on the small stool and opened the door on the upper floor. "No matter what happens, he will always put you first. Although...he may be dumb, can't talk, and has a low emotional intelligence a lot of times, but...he must have always put you in the first place. in his heart."

Having said that, Conan took out a box of drinks enough for one person from the refrigerator, carried the drinks back to everyone, lowered his head and distributed the drinks to everyone.

"..." When Qianyu took the drink, she took a deep look at Conan, but said nothing.

Maurilan, on the other hand, was not so reserved.

"You..." Taking the drink that Conan handed over, Maurilan did not directly start drinking from a straw like Sonoko next to him, but stared at Conan's expression with his head down. "Why do you seem to be... crying?"

"..." Conan pulled up his glasses and wiped his eyes lightly. "It's alright, it's just... I'm just a little sad when I think of Miss Xiao Lan, you lost your memory~www.NovelMTL.com~"

Saying so, he returned to where he was sitting with red eyes, and drank the last box of drinks on his own. "Don't worry about me, I'll just wait a minute or two."

Ayumi picked up a tissue from the table and wiped Conan's tears away.

……

Meanwhile, the Metropolitan Police Department.

"Now, the fourth victim has appeared," Officer Meguro said to Kogoro Mori and Eri Miku quite seriously. "However, unlike the previous ones, the victim is not a relevant person in this case at present, but just stored the objects of a relevant person on his behalf. According to the police officer Sato, who has woken up, he has no idea about the copy he showed you. Knowing why some of the suspect's information was destroyed, the person involved was not a police officer, but one of the people who were mainly investigated when Dr.

"Is this different from the previous killing mode?" Fei Yingri raised his own question. "Killing the police can hinder their investigation, but what's the use of killing a suspect?"

"We're still investigating this," Officer Mumu indicated that the problem wasn't just here. "And we're not even sure right now if it was the same killer - while it's generally unlikely that two killers are targeting the same people, we still have to consider that possibility. , because this time, the murderer's method of attack was a bomb attack, which has never been done before."

"At the same time, we have officially started the search for two other people who are also on the suspect list. First, if they are the murderers, they can arrest them. Second, if they are not the murderers, then we Doing so will protect their lives."
