Oritis in the world of Detective Conan

Chapter 110: The Detective Agency Hostage Incident (Part )

Some time after Masumi Sera entered Teitan High School, Xiaolan and Sonoko were walking home from school, with Lucky following behind them.

"Please, Ran, please let Detective Maori guide me." Lucky bowed deeply to Ran. "Ever since the last incident at the cafe, I haven't been able to find a part-time job for a long time."

"But my father doesn't do business like employment consulting..." Xiaolan felt helpless.

Lucky bowed again and said, "Please, just ask him to give me some advice, no matter what it is!"

Sonoko persuaded Xiaolan: "Since Axing has asked you to do this, just let him go to see the uncle."

So Xiaolan agreed to Lucky's request.

The three of them talked about Sera Masumi on the way, and Sera really appeared behind them. She heard that Conan was now living in Xiaolan's house, so she also wanted to visit him, and Xiaolan agreed.

After a while, Xiaolan, Sera and Lucky arrived at the office, but Conan had gone to the doctor's house, so he was not there.

When Kogoro Mouri learned that Masumi Sera was a female high school detective, he asked her proudly if she knew his name.

Lucky rushed to Maori Kogoro and said, "Detective Maori, you must be the famous 'Sleeping Kogoro', right? Please give me some guidance."

Maori Kogoro was a little confused when he saw the lucky guy who suddenly appeared in front of him. Fortunately, Xiaolan explained: "This is Axing. He has been worried about not being able to find a part-time job recently. After hearing about your name, Dad, he wanted to ask for your advice."

However, Kogoro Mouri only has his experiences in solving cases to share, so Xiaolan suggests that the two of them can listen to Kogoro explain those cases here.

However, Sera refused. She came to see Conan, and since Conan was not there, she would visit him another day.

However, just as Sera was about to leave, three ladies came into the office. They were Mitsui Tamami, Yuchi Shishin and Nihei Junka. All three of them were amateur mystery writers and came to listen to Kogoro Mouri's stories.

The three of them also mentioned that it was Sawaguri Mihong's brother, who passed away last month, that invited them to come along.

As they were talking, Ze Lixun suddenly walked into the office and fired a shot at the ceiling, threatening everyone to hand over their cell phones.

Everyone had no choice but to do as they were told. Xiaolan and Sera originally wanted to join forces to subdue Sawaguri Isao, but they had to give up after seeing the bomb tied to him.

On Dr. Agasa's side, Conan, Haibara and the little girl were discussing recent events, while the three little ones were chatting in the back.

The little girl said that the novelist has been in much better spirits recently and has started to busy himself with writing again.

Conan's eyes narrowed, and he felt that the novelist would definitely allude to the composer in his new work.

Hui Yuanyuan was quite interested in Conan's experiences in the past few days: "So, that detective named Sera not only knew your name a long time ago, but also knew that you were a detective?"

"Yes."

"Maybe he heard about you from the news, or maybe you were the one who finally uncovered the truth of the case, so he became interested in you."

"But I always feel like she already knew the truth, but she pretended to be wrong just to hear my reasoning."

The little girl was a little worried: "Is he trying to test your true identity?"

Huiyuan was also a little anxious: "You wouldn't say your reasoning about the case in the voice of Kudo Shinichi in front of the suspicious person, would you?"

"No, that was the only way I could think of at the time." Conan tried to argue.

"And I feel like she's not an enemy. It feels like déjà vu."

Little girl: "Could it be someone you've met before?"

"I don't know. I don't remember clearly."

Mitsuhiko noticed the conversation between Conan and the other two, and revealed to Conan that he saw Sera and Lucky following Xiaolan home, which made Conan a little nervous.

"If you're not sure, you can call to confirm." Huibara joked.

In the detective agency, Isao Sawakuri pointed a gun at Kogoro Mori and asked him to call his neighbors to explain that the gunshot was just a scene from a police movie.

Just after Kogoro Mouri completed his request, Xiaolan's cell phone rang.

Sera said that if he turned off his phone rashly, it would arouse suspicion, and thought it would be better to answer the call quickly.

So under the threat of Sawakuri Isao, Xiaolan picked up the phone. After Conan asked some questions about Sera and Lucky, Sera snatched the phone from Xiaolan and put the phone back without hanging up while Sawakuri Isao was not paying attention.

In this way, Sera deliberately guided Sawaguri Isao to convey the situation of the office to Conan.

Isao Sawakuri doesn't think his sister committed suicide, and the murderer must be one of the three people who went on the hot spring trip with her. He asks Kogoro Mori to solve his sister's case immediately, otherwise he will let the bomb explode.

Conan on the other end of the phone was shocked and immediately discussed the details of the case with several others.

Huibara also praised Xiaolan for pretending to hang up the phone, but actually used the mobile phone pendant to clip it into the folding phone to keep the phone in talk mode.

The little girl shook her head and said, "It must have been done by the detective named Sera."

"Yes, it must be her who did it." Conan held the phone and listened carefully to the details of the case told by Sawakuri Isao.

In the detective agency, Sawakuri Isao stared at Maori Kogoro who was reading a document and said impatiently, "I think it's about time you told me the truth about the case. Who among these three people is the murderer of my sister?"

After reading the documents, Kogoro Mouri felt helpless because it looked like a suicide case no matter how you looked at it.

"From the news materials you brought, it seems that the room was a completely locked room, and you were the first one to enter. How could you think this was a murder?"

Sawakuri Xun said that he heard the sound of glass breaking and there were still glass fragments left on the balcony, which must have been left by the criminal when he escaped.

"Are you sure you didn't step on that when you were rushing to check?"

"That's what the police said, but I didn't go onto the balcony at all!"

Shiliang said, "You are the kind of person who will act rashly without thinking when you get angry."

Sera's statement was confirmed by Sawakuri Isao.

"Then these three people who know you are likely to take advantage of this trait of yours."

Lucky raised his hand weakly and said, "Well, I can see that you care deeply about your sister, sir. Could it be that you can't accept the fact that she committed suicide, and your impatient personality caused you to mix up some clues and think this was a murder?"

"What did you say?" Ze Lixun immediately pointed the gun at Lucky.

"I'm sorry! I was just talking nonsense. I was wrong..." Lucky was so scared that he squatted on the ground with his hands on his head, trembling.

Shiliang quickly tried to make amends for Lucky: "The most important thing now is to find out the truth of the incident. Please calm down. We will definitely give you an answer."
