Ke Xue: The man standing behind Ai Jiang

Sitting in his seat, Mouri Kogoro found that there were very few people sitting at the dining table in the hall.

There were only two or three people at each table.

He looked at the seats near the stage and said, "It's really strange. There are too few tables arranged in the restaurant of this hotel. And they are all used for such large banquets."

"Uncle. When you say that, it's true. There isn't even a small dining table for couples to date." Sonoko echoed Kogoro's words.

Upon hearing this, Yuuji glanced at the emptiness around him and the joy and unwillingness of the passers-by who came to participate in the lottery one after another. He smiled and said, "Maybe it was specially adjusted like this for this Christmas lottery banquet."

"A few of you. Are you the guests at this table? Can you show me the winning ticket?" A beautiful waitress appeared next to Mouri Kogoro and said in a charming tone.

Kogoro looked at the bunny girl's white thighs with black stockings and the sexy red ring on her thigh. The inner ring seemed to have D616 engraved on it.

His evil eyes never moved away from the bunny girl's black stockings.

Until Fei Yingli reached out and grabbed Kogoro's ear.

"My dear, what are you looking at?" Fei Yingli said to Kogoro in front of her with a smile.

"Ah, this." Kogoro didn't say anything. He moved his eyes to the other bunny girls.

Some bunny girls have cute wreath cuffs tied on their thighs, but most of them are on the knees, and that's because they wear stockings with suspenders and lace edges.

Only the bunny girls wearing pantyhose like female anchors have red metal leg rings tied to their thighs, with numbers and English engraved on them.

"Really. Dad." Mao Lilan glanced at Mao Li Kogoro who was being scolded by Fei Yingli. She stood up and showed the first prize ticket that Shiho had just given her to the bunny girl.

The bunny girl took a serious look at Maorilan, and then looked at Shiho, who was sitting at the table with a cold expression.

She handed the ticket back to Mao Lilan with a smile, "The menu will be delivered later, but the dishes may have to be served later. We hope that all guests can enjoy tonight's dinner together. Please forgive me."

"It's okay." Mao Lilan did not speak. This sentence was spoken by the elder concubine Yingli present.

She glanced at Yuuji and Shiho, "Wait a moment, there should be no problem."

"Yeah. After all, it seems that the last table will be out soon." Yuuji looked at the two people walking to seat No. 10 next door, and there was solemnity in his eyes.

"Hey. It's Officer Sato." Mao Lilan recognized the intellectual short-haired girl as Officer Sato.

"Lan. Good evening." Sato heard Mao Lilan's voice and turned around to greet Mao Lilan.

Mao Lilan looked at the cross-dressing man next to Sato with curiosity, "Officer Sato, who is this?"

Before Sato and Takagi could answer.

Yuuji appeared next to Officer Sato and raised the man with one hand. His eyes were quite fierce.

"President Oda. I am Wataru Takagi." Officer Takagi was so frightened that he quickly took off his wig.

"Is it really Takagi Wataru?" Yuuji didn't let go, he asked Takagi seriously.

"Okay. President Oda. He is really Wataru Takagi. I can guarantee that." Officer Sato didn't understand why Yuuji acted like this, so she quickly stood up and explained.

"Officer Sato. I'm sorry. Your testimony doesn't count in front of me. Because your relationship with him is unclear." Yuuji glanced at Sato coldly.

Shiho walked up to Yuuji with a puzzled look on his face, and gently pulled Yuuji's clothes with his little hand.

Yuuji gave Shiho a gentle look.

With a cold voice, Shiho looked at Yuuji angrily and said, "What on earth are you doing."

"Matsuda Jinpei's clone disappeared not long ago." Yuuji explained to Shiho in a low voice, "He is the most successful clone so far. According to your mother's explanation, some information about him has been The memory was transferred to his clone, and the clone accepted and used this part of the memory well. His disappearance caused too many problems."

"Does Matsuda Jinpei have anything to do with this person?" Shiho asked Yuuji, looking at Takagi Wataru's funny look of surrendering with his hands.

"Who can guarantee that this guy is not Matsuda Jinpei in disguise?" Yuuji pinched Takagi Wataru's face unwillingly.

"Hey Oda Yuuji. No matter how fanciful you are, don't treat Takagi Wataru as a person who doesn't exist." Sato looked at Yuuji with a gloomy look, as if a volcano was about to erupt.

"Officer Sato." Takagi Wataru's voice was both happy and sad.

Yuuji gently placed Takagi Wataru on the ground and patted the non-existent dust on Takagi Wataru's body, "Officer Takagi. I'm sorry. Because the disguise you just made is too similar to the suspect in the recent missing person case under my banner. .I was a little excited for a moment.”

Shiho showed an expression that said, "You really can't be fooled." Then she walked back to her seat and looked at the map fragments stacked in front of Yuuji's seat. She began to sort out the map fragments. Sonoko beside her was not interested in the topics of Sato and others.

She joins Shiho's puzzle operation.

To give you a detail, the stack Sonoko handed to Yuuji was placed separately.

Mao Lilan, Fei Yingli, and Kogoro were put together and not placed on the pile in the garden.

"President Oda. Could you please explain to us what just happened?" Officer Sato looked at Yuuji seriously.

Takagi Wataru's expression also became serious.

What? I pinched it casually. Are you serious? How could there be a case of missing persons under my banner? When the police and Xiao are just decorations. Yuuji started to sweat profusely.

"In that case. Are the police also investigating that incident?" Mouri Kogoro didn't know when he came to the side.

He spoke in a low voice and kept looking at the bunny girls in the field.

"Yes. For five consecutive years, the police have been troubled by the disappearance of young women on Christmas Eve in Tokyo. The suspicious locations currently investigated include the Dazai Ocean International Hotel where Takagi Wataru and I are. And the Millennium where Officer Megure and Officer Shiratori are. Ichiraku Nightclub. Of course, there are police patrols in other places. We must not let the case of missing women continue!" Miwako Sato clenched a fist with one hand and said in a sonorous voice.

"Sure enough. There is something wrong with this hotel." Mouri Kogoro nodded while touching his chin.

"Mr. Maori, what else can I say?" Takagi Wataru touched the back of his head and said with some confusion.

Mouri Kogoro straightened his clothes with his hands, "To be honest, I was investigated by a client today. It was to investigate whether there was any improper behavior in this hotel. However, I cannot tell you the client's information. .”

"It seems that the investigation was commissioned by the victim's relatives. Then we won't ask any more questions. Mr. Mori, have you found anything in your investigation now?" Officer Sato invited Kogoro Mori to the table No. 10 where they won the prize.

Mao Lilan was pulled back to her table No. 9 by Fei Yingli.

"Lan. Don't hinder your father from doing business." Fei Yingli looked at Mao Lilan's worry about her father and said with relief.

"Yes." Mao Lilan replied happily.

"Disappearance case?" Yuuji followed the three of them and sat at table No. 10, listening to the conversation between the three of them.

He activated his intelligence and observed the entire hotel, but found nothing suspicious.

"Not yet. The only thing that caught my attention is that there are so many beautiful bunny girls in Christmas costumes today." Mouri Kogoro stayed away from Mao Lilan and Fei Yingli, and returned to his true nature for a second.

Takagi Wataru smiled awkwardly, cold sweat falling on his forehead, "Mr. Mori is still as humorous as ever."

"It turns out that Mr. Mori also noticed it." Miwako Sato looked like she was worthy of Kogoro Mori.

"Yes. That's right. Some of those bunny girls have red leg rings tied to their thighs. And often these bunny girls with red leg rings have a higher status." Mouri Kogoro looked seriously at the man who was obviously just serving tea and water. But the bunny girl can easily command the managers in the hall, which is obviously abnormal.

Yuuji's lips twitched, "Uncle Maori. This may be the hierarchy within the hotel. After all, some bosses with bad tastes will also set such rules."

Yuji, are you talking about yourself? A rant from Curacao.

And the friendly and kind eyes of Oda’s female employees.

"That's true." Mouri Kogoro acknowledged Yuuji's words, "After all, the leg rings have letters and numbers engraved on them."

"That is to say, there are still no useful clues." Takagi Wataru scratched his hair anxiously.

Sato Miwako looked confident, "Takagi, don't be impatient. Be steady. This is the most suspicious place. We will definitely be able to investigate something."

"Excuse me. This is the menu for your table." A white stocking Christmas bunny girl with A214 on her thigh placed a stack of menus in front of everyone. She had a beautiful face and a slim figure. She smiled at everyone Said, "Please place your order as soon as possible. We will serve the dishes on time around eight o'clock."

"Eight o'clock. There are still more than thirty minutes. No rush." ​​Yuuji glanced at his watch.

"Yuji! Come on!" Shiho called Yuji happily.

Yuuji looked at Shiho with a puzzled look, and Sonoko next to Shiho was also happily talking to Mao Lilan and Fei Yingli.

He walked towards Shiho with full of confusion.
