Chapter 678 Red Square Seminar-Part 1

Rice Flower Hotel, 11th floor, room 1111.

A very auspicious room number.

At this time, there were two people standing at the door... to be precise, two women.

One of them is no stranger to Conan. It was Sera Masumi who they went to help investigate the whereabouts of our sister Eiyu yesterday.

Of course, Conan couldn't help being surprised for a moment and asked, then he remembered that Sera Masumi was Mr. Akai's sister...

Suddenly, Conan's heart moved:

Wait, that is to say... Mr. Akai called all the people he knows well this time?

The white-haired woman next to Sera is...

"Eh? Conan? Why are you here?"

Sera Masumi was also surprised when she saw Conan.

She didn't realize anything yet and thought it was just a coincidence.

only……

"Conan?"

The white-haired woman wearing sunglasses, Akai Mari, lowered her head and looked at Conan with some curiosity.

Because she has a lot of contact with her son, just thinking about it, she roughly understood that her son probably called her here, and for some unknown reason, she even called her daughter too.

After thinking about it, she simply took off her sunglasses, smiled at Conan and said, "Are you the boy Xiuyi mentioned? Thank you for your help to my son recently."

...She is indeed Mr. Akai’s mother!

Conan came back to his senses and scratched his head in embarrassment, "Ah, um, it's nothing, hahaha... By the way, Mrs. Akai, were you and Sister Sera also called here by Brother Shuichi?"

"Oh, that's right." Akai Marie nodded and stared at the door, "I asked the hotel front desk. Although the person who booked this room had a pseudonym, judging from the other person's appearance description, it was him...

However, we just knocked on the door and there was no response at all."

Conan looked at the closed door, then went up and knocked twice. Sure enough, no one answered.

"Could it be Xiuyi brother who went out?"

"No, I called the front desk and asked, but no one down there saw him go out."

Akai Marie walked to the door and carefully inspected the door lock to see if there were any signs of prying.

As an agent, she has developed the habit of always observing the environment, and considering the worst possibility in any situation - for example, she has now considered whether her son has been raped through some kind of method.

The technique killed him in the room...

Or maybe a bomb was placed in the room to trick them into taking the bait.

She even doubted whether those text messages were sent by her son...

certainly.

What she thought of, Conan also thought of.

Because Conan also called Akai Shuichi, but no one answered, and there was no sound in the room...

Something fishy!

Conan and Akai Marie stood on both sides of the door, holding their chins in their hands, and their movements were highly consistent.

Both of them inadvertently ignored Sera Masumi who had a question mark on his face next to them.

Who will tell her why Conan seems to be so familiar with his brother?

And why does her mother have such an expression of ‘I understand very well’??

as well as……

Sera Masumi: What are you thinking about when you are standing at the door? Can you please say something to me?

The three of them stood at the door for several minutes under the strange looks of other residents coming and going, until a sound of footsteps stopped next to them.

"Eh! Conan...ah, there's Sera-san?!"

Conan looked up in shock, "Yingyou...brother?"

The person standing behind him was none other than Hondo Yingyou.

But it was very different from her usual attire. She was wearing a long windbreaker.

This boy who looked very quiet also looked confused, but then he clapped his hands as if he had realized something, "I know! It's Sera-san you sent me the text message, right? But, when did you change your phone number...

…”

He and Masumi Sera exchanged mobile phone numbers.

But today, he received a text message from an unknown number, telling him that if he wanted to know the whereabouts of his sister, he should come to Room 1111 of the Rice Flower Hotel...

"Well, brother Yingyou, we actually came here after receiving the text message." Conan hesitated for a moment and then spoke.

In fact, he seems to understand Akai Shuichi's plan, but the problem is that Akai Shuichi has not appeared yet...

Akai Marie understood the content no less than Conan, and had more speculations in her heart.

In order to avoid misunderstanding, the four of them called up the text messages on their mobile phones to signal each other, and confirmed that the sender was Shuichi Akai.

However, the text messages Akai Shuichi sent to Conan and his mother and sister were all about asking them to come over if they had something to do, and the text message to Hondo Eiyu was the most straightforward.

To be honest, there was a vague sense of threat in it - probably because I was afraid that if I didn't say something harsh, I wouldn't be able to deceive people.

After some exchanges between the four people...or mainly three people, because the unlucky child Sera Masumi could hardly express anything beyond her mother.

Their attention returned to the door.

"How about... pry it open?" Sera Masumi felt that she finally had a chance to play, and raised her hand weakly, "I have practiced with this kind of hotel door, and I can pry it open..."

Conan and Hondo Eyou both looked at her strangely.

Who is a serious person who would contact someone to pick the lock?

"It's better to contact Shuichi first." Akai Marie directly rejected her daughter's suggestion, "It's safer this way."

She was still worried that there was a bomb or something behind the door...

On the other hand, Yingyou, the main hall, carefully poked Conan, "Anu...who is this 'Shuichi' you are talking about?"

Conan's mouth twitched, "Who else could it be... Sister Sera's brother, this aunt's son, an FBI agent..."

I don’t know if it’s because the description of Shuichi Akai is too accurate.

The door to the room suddenly opened a crack at the moment he finished speaking.

The reaction of the four people was also surprisingly consistent. They took a step back in unison, and with great vigilance, they looked at the head protruding from the door.

Akai Shuichi's eyes were confused and his clothes were still a little messy, but his mind was still clear: "Sorry, I was sleeping just now and didn't hear the call...come in."

Crowd: "..."

This was a situation they never expected.

Is it actually because...overslept?

Conan was the first to walk in with a subtle expression on his face, and Akai Mari, who followed him in, also had a slightly subtle expression on his face.

However, the two of them, plus Sera Masumi, were relatively calm with each other. Only the main hall Eiyu was very excited. After he came in and closed the door, he immediately walked to Akai Shuichi who was about to pour some water and said in an excited voice:

"Hey! Mr. Akai! You said you know the whereabouts of my sister? Where is she now? Is she doing well? After all..."

"Cough cough cough!"

Akai Shuichi wanted to answer without swallowing a sip of water, but ended up choking several times...

He wondered if he had fallen out with someone recently?

Earlier, he was sprayed with water by a fire protection device, which caused him psychological distress, and now he is choked by water again...

But thanks to this choking, Akai Hide woke up a lot, and even his vision was completely clear, without the blurry feeling before.

After drinking water again to moisten his throat, he turned to look at the anxious young man and said calmly:

"Are you this hall? I will tell you about your sister in a moment... Please stay there for a moment."

He reached out and motioned to the chair over in the living room.

With the activity funds, he didn't have to save money and simply booked a suite.

Conan and Sera Masumi were sitting on the sofa consciously, looking at Akai Shuichi with longing eyes.

Except Akai Marie.

This aura-filled mother stared at her son expressionlessly, with an expression that seemed to say, "You'd better give me an explanation"...

However, Akai Shuichi himself inherited the character advantages of his parents. Although he has not seen his mother for many years, this tit-for-tat aura makes him miss her.

Hondo Eyou, who was invited to sit down, realized the difference and the atmosphere was a bit weird. After a while, he went over to sit...well, or rather, he squeezed Conan and sat down.

The three little ones were sitting on the same couch as Akai Mari, but even Masumi Sera kept a distance of twenty centimeters from her mother.
To be continued...
