Conan: About the fact that I have a black brother

Kudo Shinichi didn't know how to start. If he asked Lin Xiaochen about the details of solving the case, it would seem too rude.

I heard from my father before that the case seemed to have a great impact on the top police officers, and one police officer was pushed out as a shield.

- Of course, Kudo Yusaku couldn't say this in front of Kudo Shinichi. Although Kudo Shinichi is more mature than ordinary children, such words have a great influence on the formation of a child's world outlook, values ​​and outlook. Moreover, if Kudo Shinichi is not careful with his words and is tricked into revealing something, it would be difficult for Kudo Yusaku as a father.

Therefore, all the information about the bomber was deduced by Kudo Shinichi himself based on newspapers and eavesdropping.

For a detective, sometimes an incomplete truth is more attractive than ignorance.

It is difficult for Kudo Shinichi to turn a blind eye to such a prominent person as Lin Xiaochen.

On the contrary, at this moment, the fire of reasoning in his heart was burning more and more fiercely, and he couldn't wait to get a positive answer from Lin Xiaochen.

But then again, as the scapegoat, is Lin Xiaochen really willing to expose his own scars?

Kudo Shinichi hesitated.

Lin Xiaochen waited patiently for their response.

The little girl with the headband urged impatiently: "Hey, Kudo, please say something."

"Yeah, Shinichi, did something happen to you?" Mao Li Ran also said.

Although she already had some feelings for her childhood sweetheart's passion for reasoning, and also had a vague suspicion that he was addicted to reasoning, the kind-hearted Xiaolan still cared about his health first.

"Can you... tell me how you caught the bomber?" Kudo Shinichi hesitated for a moment, but chose to speak frankly. However, after he finished speaking, he looked up nervously at the man in front of him who was smiling gently, and he was obviously still a little scared.

Lin Xiaochen was startled when he heard this, and seemed a little surprised. The smile on his face faded: "Why do you suddenly ask this?"

It’s been so long since then. Doesn’t the Internet have no memory?

"I'm sorry...if you feel offended..." When Mao Lilan saw Lin Xiaochen's smile disappear, she was afraid that he would be angry, so she hurriedly apologized, but was stopped by Lin Xiaochen's even brighter smile.

Lin Xiaochen couldn't help but raise his hand and rub Kudo Shinichi's head: "No, what do you want to ask? Speak in advance, some of the content involves a confidentiality agreement, I won't disclose it."

Kudo Shinichi was not used to being touched by strangers, but because he still wanted to get an answer from the other person, he stood there somewhat uncomfortably.

The first lesson in police academy is to learn to judge the other person’s emotions.

Lin Xiaochen naturally noticed Kudo Shinichi's awkwardness and put his hand down.

But in my heart I was happy: I have also touched the head of the protagonist of this world. Hehe~

Lin Xiaochen asked the three little ones to sit beside him and answered Kudo Shinichi's questions in detail.

……

"So, when you were not sure whether the other party was the real criminal, you just...just..." Kudo Shinichi suddenly raised his voice, and when he realized that he had attracted everyone's attention, he lowered his voice, "just..."

He considered the wording.

Lin Xiaochen laughed at himself and said, "We used force against the suspect."

"In fact, I was already 70% to 80% sure at that time... After I took action, I found out that it was the other party." Lin Xiaochen was a little embarrassed, "But I did violate the rules..."

Refers to the few punches that were used to vent anger afterwards.

"However, it is better not to tell this to the children, as it may affect their physical and mental health." Lin Xiaochen made up his mind.

Unfortunately, it was okay to fool the two little girls, but it was a bit difficult to fool Kudo Shinichi.

Kudo Shinichi immediately raised a question: "But, isn't it normal for the police to use force to suppress criminals when investigating a case?"

Is he really taking the blame for someone else?

Lin Xiaochen smiled on the surface, but in his heart he was mumbling to the system: "As expected of the protagonist, he is just difficult to deal with."

The system said hehe: [Host, any person with a sound mind can think of the loopholes in your logic]

"Nonsense, the two girls didn't suspect anything."

【sorry……】

"Yes, I accept."

[My wording is inappropriate. It should be that any healthy-minded adult or a child with great wisdom and common sense can think of it.]

Lin Xiaochen: ...

Lin Xiaochen laughed dryly, looking around the venue, and finally found the figure of Maori Kogoro.

Kogoro Mori was drinking at that time, and suddenly he felt a chill on his back. He turned around and met a pair of dark blue eyes full of smiles.

Kogoro Mori: It seems...it would be rude not to go up and say hello?

So, Kogoro Mori put down his wine glass and walked over.

Lin Xiaochen stood up: "Mr. Mao Li."

Maori Kogoro searched his mind for a moment and remembered the name of the young man who had just introduced himself: "Ah, Mr. Lin, I am sorry to bother you."

"No, no, the little girl is very well behaved." Lin Xiaochen laughed, "I heard that Mr. Mao Li was also a criminal police officer. I was so rude to you just now."

"No, no." Maori Kogoro had no idea what Lin Xiaochen was up to, so he could only respond politely.

"Which police school did Mr. Mao Li graduate from?" Lin Xiaochen asked.

"Tokyo Metropolitan Police Academy." Kogoro Mouri answered, but saw Lin Xiaochen showing a surprised expression.

"Is it such a coincidence? Which class are you from?" Lin Xiaochen smiled a little exaggeratedly, "Maybe I have heard about your heroic deeds from the instructor!"

"Uh, the Onizuka Squad..." Kogoro Mori had never experienced any hype from the outside world at this moment, and felt a little at a loss as to what to do.

"Oh, what a coincidence!" Lin Xiaochen was delighted. "Instructor Onitsuka often mentioned that there was an excellent police officer with a perfect shooting score who now opened a detective agency in Beika Town. I guess it must be you! Mr. Maori, you are my idol, can you give me an autograph?"

"Ah, of course, yes..." Facing such an enthusiastic junior, Maori Kogoro couldn't help but feel proud. "Reputation is something outside of our body. As police officers, we must always maintain the image of police officers and protect the safety of citizens. This kind of dispensable honorary title should not be taken too seriously..."

"Yes, you are right!" Lin Xiaochen saluted Maori Kogoro and handed him the paper and pen he carried with him, "Just sign here."

Kogoro Mori did as he was told.

After getting what he wanted, Lin Xiaochen exchanged a few polite words with a few others, said he was going out to eat something, and then left the lounge.

System: [Host, you are just too boastful]

Lin Xiaochen: "What do you know? But you are right."
