Conan: The Mechanic

Twenty-two minutes ago, Shiho Miyano comforted Chiba.

"Father, you're here," Maurilan, who was sitting on the seat with one hand resting on his cheeks, shook his glass boredly and said to the angry middle-aged man in front of him. "Want to sit down and have a drink together?"

"Why are you drinking?" Kogoro Mauri took the cup from Maurilan's hand. "That kid... wait a minute, is this soda in your glass?"

"In the case of Shinichi, I went out to solve the case and let my pigeon go. As for drinking... Please, of course it's a soda!" Taking the cup back from Kogoro Mouri's hand, Xiao Lan just took a sip. "I'm not old enough to drink something like wine. But... Father, do you want some?"

"Huh?" Kogoro Mori was stunned.

"Xinyi has already put the card with me, so now he pays for anything else." Maurilan took out a credit card from his pocket. "Dad, do you want to take the opportunity to drink something extravagant here?"

"This..." Kogoro Mouri was obviously relaxed because he had finished searching for his daughter, and finally sat down where Shinichi Kudo was originally sitting and ordered a bottle of red wine. "Okay, then Dad will tell you what to expect from you."

"Don't worry, Dad," Shaking the cup, Maurilan looked through the liquid inside and looked at the somewhat blurred face of Kogoro Maori. "Let's have a drink first. Sometimes a drink can remind you of things that you can't usually remember."

……

At the same time, at the entrance of the first floor, Qian Yu was half-lying on the sofa, staring blankly at the chandelier directly above.

[How do I explain to Kudo Shinichi who is so full of heart that he wants to launch the final offensive against Maurilan here? 】

When he sighed like this, he found a familiar figure. "Eh?"

"Huh?" The owner of the figure was a girl. Although she was unfamiliar with her appearance, Qianyu always felt that she seemed to be—

"Sister Xiaolan?" Staring at her, Qianyu asked tentatively after confirming that the other party didn't have any working mobile phone and measuring the facial features with the auxiliary unit.

"Huh?" Xiaolan looked at Qianyu in surprise. "Xiao Lan...Sister? You are..."

"A child who has gone through the same thing as Kudo, Mouri-san." Chiba stood up from the sofa as if injected with some kind of motivation. "It's probably not the first time we met, but I still have to introduce myself - Tachibana Chiha."

"That child..." Mao Lilan reacted immediately, and then looked at Qianyu, who was half a head taller than him. "Your height...has changed a lot..."

"Strictly speaking, my height change is similar to that of Kudo." Chiba shrugged.

"His words have been engraved in my soul, and it's the same for me no matter what I look like - even if it's Conan, my eyebrows and eyes are all full of new looks." Mao Lilan seemed to remember something, and his face showed A gentle smile. "But you... I saw your adult form intuitively for the first time."

"Sometimes I really don't understand what girls think." Sighing, Qian Yu pinched the bridge of her nose with a bit of laughter. "Anyway...I thought Lan-san was caught by the Maori detective up there."

"How is it possible, after I guessed what Dad did, I slipped out." With a rather smug expression, Mao Lilan showed off his foresight like this. "Today is such an important day, how could I ask him to take me back?"

"You also know what Kudo is going to do?" Qianyu asked in surprise.

"With that look of Xinyi, I knew what I wanted to do at first glance - and I was actually looking forward to it." Mao Lilan raised her head and looked directly above, as if she could pass through many floors. , to see the figure of Kudo Shinichi.

"Do you need me to take you up there? Kudo seems to have settled the case." Chiba suggested. "For the time being, I still know where he is now and where he is going to go. It's much more convenient than you go to find him alone."

"Okay, then please."

In this way, Qianyu took Mao Lilan into the nearest elevator.

"By the way, do you have cameras or something?" Ma Lilan asked as if she was expecting something, looking at the back of Qianyu pressing the elevator door.

"No, but if necessary, you can buy one here. Do you have any needs?" Chiba answered succinctly. "Don't worry too much about money. If I need it, I will take the camera home and use it for myself."

"Well, later... I hope I can take a commemorative snapshot, you know." Mao Lilan raised his expectations in a low voice.

"It's the kind of... precious photos that I can treasure for a lifetime."

"Don't worry, after all, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for you~www.NovelMTL.com~ After pressing the close button of the car door, Qianyu looked at the iron door closed from both sides. "But the point is that you two Is it possible for the individual to successfully do today—"

The closing of the car door seemed to cut off Chiba's voice.

"?" Mao Lilan cast a suspicious look. "What's wrong?"

"No..." Qianyu's expression was a little confused. "Nothing, maybe I saw it wrong?"

However, Chiba actually had no doubts about what she saw, she just didn't know why it became like this.

……

Three seconds after the elevator door closed, the figures of Hattori Heiji and Toyama Kazuha appeared here.

"Is there anything important?" Yuan Shan and Ye looked at the excited Hattori Heiji with a small handbag. "He deliberately dragged me from Osaka to Tokyo, and said that there was something very important, but he didn't tell me until now."

"Didn't I tell you, it's to meet Kudo!" Hattori walked to the elevator and pressed the call button. "This time, it's for you to meet Kudo Shinichi Masao himself and confirm the fact that he is a man!"

"Heiji, why are you still staring at that thing!" Kazuya's face turned red, and he complained to Heiji while turning his face to the side. "Really, I wouldn't be willing to accompany you if you hadn't promised me that you would give me a surprise later as compensation."

"Okay, okay, but you also have to enjoy the process in Tokyo, don't worry about this kind of thing!" With that said, Hattori Heiji looked anxiously at the number of floors on the descending side of the elevator.

How could I bring her here just to meet Kudo? As a famous detective, of course, I need to kill two birds with one stone to show the level of Hattori Heiji!
