A Tribute to Sherlock Holmes[Comprehensive]

Mao Lilan found Izumi Hiratsuka asleep against the door when she went out to get the morning paper early in the morning.She sat leaning on the ground, her slender body curled up into a ball.

The night before last, Izumi Hiratsuka heard Mori Ran on the phone, and the person on the phone was Shinichi Kudo, and she also heard it.I also know that Hiratsuka Izumi ran out in the middle of the night to meet that person.

Thinking of this, Mao Lilan's expression became a little gloomy.She had never had such a feeling that her bamboo horse would be so far away from her.

Is there anything that cannot be told to her?

As for the answer to this question, Mao Lilan can fully figure out that the reasoning fanatic of her family will definitely tell her that it is a matter of the case, because it is too dangerous, so she does not want to involve her in it.

Is that a case related to Izumi Hiratsuka?

Mao Lilan is considerate, she can readily accept these reasons, and she is willing to wait for the day when Kudo Shin opens up to her.But it was precisely because she knew these things too well, and the selfish desire that she couldn't let go of in her heart would only drive her to care more about what happened last night.

She regretted a little now, if she didn't eavesdrop on Hiratsuka Izumi's call, she wouldn't know about it.She knew too well that Izumi Hiratsuka was out of the house last night, which made her more concerned about the reason why Izumi Hiratsuka went to see her bamboo horse late at night.

The more she cared, the more she could only be suspicious. After all, she didn't know how to ask such a question, and she was too embarrassed to ask it.

Taking a breath to cheer himself up, Mao Lilan raised his hand and patted his cheek to adjust his expression, then woke up Izumi Hiratsuka who was leaning against the door.

"Quanjiang, wake up."

The gentle tone of voice awakened Izumi Hiratsuka from his slumber like the light of dawn.She opened her eyes, and those clear pupils were unobstructed, as beautiful as jewels.It seemed that she hadn't fully woken up yet, and her expression was hazy.

"Quanjiang." Mao Lilan called again, "Why did you sleep outside the door?"

Izumi Hiratsuka finally came back to his senses, and his expression suddenly became surprised and flustered. She hurriedly got up from the ground, but because she stood up too fast, her orthostatic hypotension made her eyes go black for a while.

Feeling dizzy for a while, she fell directly towards the side of the door, hitting her forehead precisely on the edge of the door.

"Hiss..." Inhaling subconsciously, Izumi Hiratsuka stepped back a little while rubbing his forehead, then bowed to Mao Lilan as a salute, "I'm sorry, Lan, I was afraid to disturb you by calling last night. I went out, but I forgot to take the spare key and couldn’t get in. It’s so late, and I’m sorry to disturb you and Uncle Xiaowulang by knocking on the door.”

Hiratsuka Izumi didn't hide anything and said directly that he was just calling and went out.It's just that the details are omitted. If Mao Lilan asks, she doesn't mind going on.

But she knew that Mao Lilan would not ask.Because the latter knew part of it, uneasiness and avoidance would only prevent her from speaking.Moreover, Mao Lilan may not want to understand the answer to the question.

"This...that's it." Facing the innocent and seemingly defenseless Hiratsuka Izumi, Mao Lilan avoided the question of continuing as Hiratsuka Izumi expected.She took Hiratsuka Izumi's hand, "Stop standing outside, come in."

"Thank you Lan." Izumi Hiratsuka bowed again.

"Quanjiang, don't be so polite to me."

It was still early, and Kogoro hadn't even gotten up.Mao Lilan wanted to prepare breakfast, so Hiratsuka Izumi went into the kitchen to help.

The two girls didn't speak, but Izumi Hiratsuka relaxed.Her chess game, her script, she is still an actor in it, she will not feel guilty at all.On the contrary, Mao Lilan was full of worries, all of which were written on her face.

Hiratsuka Izumi also played tricks, pretending not to notice anything, not saying a word, not mentioning a word.

When Mao Lilan was cutting the onion, she didn't know whether her eyes were smoked by the onion, or her mind was messed up, and she shed tears quietly.In such a situation, Izumi Hiratsuka could no longer remain silent.

She raised her eyebrows and asked knowingly, "What's wrong with you, Lan?"

"It's okay, the onion is too choking." In order to let Hiratsuka Izumi not think too much, Maurilan smiled at her.

"That's it, then let me do the cutting."

Izumi Hiratsuka easily took the kitchen knife from the opponent's hand and took over the job.She chopped the onion deftly, her eyes were hanging on it, and her earnest appearance was flawless.

"Izumi-chan, thank you."

This thank you is very profound, I don't know if it is purely literal or hinting at something else.

Izumi Hiratsuka's hand paused, and she smiled back at Mao Lilan: "Lan, don't be polite to me."

The blade made a rattling sound when it was chopping on the chopping board, and soon, Izumi Hiratsuka chopped the onion.

"By the way, Lan, I plan to go home today."

"Why so suddenly?"

"It's not sudden, I just feel... I feel sorry for bothering you and uncle all the time."

"I don't need to bother you. Izumi is working hard alone, and my father and I also thought that it would be great if we could help a little."

At first, Izumi Hiratsuka would live in the Mori Detective Agency, but it was Mori Ran who prevented her from living in Kudo House.

Reminiscing that Izumi Hiratsuka had contacted Shinichi Kudo the night before, and now that he had proposed the idea of ​​going home, Mao Lilan combined the two things together preconceived.

For example, she guessed whether Hiratsuka Izumi went out from here because of Kudo Shinichi.For another example, there was some agreement between the two of them that she didn't know about.

After having this idea, Mao Lilan felt that she was going too far, how could she think of others so despicably?How could Izumi Hiratsuka, who she knew was gentle and courteous, be a person with such a palace?

Shaking his head, Mao Lilan snuffed out his wild thoughts.

Mao Lilan still had to go to school, and Hiratsuka Izumi said goodbye to Kogoro in the office in the afternoon, erased all the traces he had left in Mao Li's house, and left.

It is Chablis' habit to do things without leaving traces.But anyone who has obtained a code name in that organization must be wary of this.

To be honest, during the days when Izumi Hiratsuka got along with Mao Lilan, she really almost forgot her other identity - Chabli of the Black Organization.

Chablis mission is to obliterate Shirley. Izumi Hiratsuka used the explosion of the Mihua Building to create chaos. In addition, Gin couldn't trust her, so the additional explosions were obviously intended to make Chablis buried in the building. There.

From Chablis' point of view, this mission was of course a failure.Chablis found out that Hui Yuanai was Shirley, but he didn't kill her.Izumi Hiratsuka naturally hid these things from everyone, and Gin didn't know about it.

If exposed, she should have become Gin Jiu's ghost.

Besides the mission, there is naturally only one person that Izumi Hiratsuka can't let go of, that young detective named Heisei Holmes.It was with great difficulty that she managed to shift all the attention of that wise boy to herself in a very short time.

Last night, I ran to meet with Conan alone, and Izumi Hiratsuka also thought that the other party would definitely ask some very sharp questions.

——Hiratsuka, what did you inject me with?

Izumi Hiratsuka was surprised by Conan's direct question, but it was also expected by her.After all, the boy was the one she yearned for, how could he not be outstanding?

Facing the scorching gaze of the young boy, Izumi Hiratsuka could not avoid it, and she would not avoid it either.As she said in her words, as long as it is a question asked by Kudo-kun, she will definitely answer it.

In front of Gin, she has to play Chabli well, and in front of Kudo Shinichi, she has to protect her identity well.Because once exposed, she should never be able to stand upright in front of the detective boy.

"If Kudo-kun trusts me, I can hand over things like that directly to you."

This is Izumi Hiratsuka's answer to the question, and another assumption is made, and the other party needs to pay the trust first.At that time, Conan's two eyebrows were almost wrinkled together. He thought that this was not a question of trust or distrust at all, but whether Hiratsuka Izumi had sincerity.

And Hiratsuka Izumi's reply was also very dexterous, she still holds all the initiative.

There was another person who eavesdropped on Conan and Hiratsuka Izumi's conversation - Haibara Ai.

After Izumi Hiratsuka said that, she couldn't help but rushed out from behind the basement door: "Don't believe her!"

At that moment, Haibara Ai really felt the sense of oppression that someone from the organization would bring to her from Izumi Hiratsuka, the invisible panic that seemed to have countless big hands trying to drag her into hell.

Although Haibara Ai and Hiratsuka Izumi had sympathy and pity for both women, she couldn't care too much when the former induced Kudo Shinichi with an uncertain safety factor.

So, rushed out to stop.

"Don't believe her!" Hui Yuanai yelled again, not hesitating to expose herself.

Although, Hiratsuka Izumi knew her identity a long time ago.

Izumi Hiratsuka stood up from the sofa, and with a gentle smile, she walked towards Hui Yuanai step by step.

The light coming from the entrance was not bright, and it shone on Izumi Hiratsuka's face. The shadows cast by the contours of the facial features dyed such a smile with a bit of chill, making people's back numb.

That slender figure walked lightly and lightly, like a dying ghost.

"Hiratsuka!" Conan called to stop the girl, who stopped in response, "I'll wait for your answer."

Conan's answer is also extremely subtle, avoiding the question of trust.

For a moment, he did feel a dangerous aura from Izumi Hiratsuka.

What was dangerous was not Izumi Hiratsuka's actions, but the girl herself.Conan felt that maybe if he didn't pay attention, he would watch the girl fall into the quagmire from which she could never turn back.

"I'm waiting for your answer." He repeated.

The author has something to say: Mei Quan is actually a bad boy.

Conan has to go with Quan Mei here, otherwise he can't go deep(?)

I was on the list and I was so moved that I cried qwq I will update it in the future w
