"Thank you. No need to talk about the treat. As for the standard of tonight's meal, the commission fee is not enough for two meals, okay?"
Mouri Kogoro tightened his grip on his wallet, "I'll help the Gumeimen Police Department eliminate a few wrong options later as a gift in return."
Mao Lilan was furious when she heard this. She was so angry that she could eat several meals!
After a sumptuous dinner, everyone was invited by Ryuen to listen to music at the Sakuraya Teahouse in Pontocho.
"Ah, it's the Chiga-san who was in Miyagawa Town during the day." Hattori Heiji looked in surprise at the geisha who entered the room to perform. She happened to be the young lady he and Kazuha helped during the day.
Yuan Shan and Ye Dun, who were on the side, leaned into his ear with a bright smile and asked in a low voice: "Isn't it beautiful?"
"..." Hattori Heiji's mouth trembled, "I've only met her once, so what?"
Yuan Shan and Ye folded their arms and snorted, "You only glanced at me eight years ago, and you still miss me until now. You even came to Kyoto to look for me when you had the chance."
"..." Hattori Heiji suddenly blushed, "Can you not mention this matter?"
"That's not okay..." A blush flashed across Yuanshan Heye's face, "I will remember it for the rest of my life, the way you looked for me so stupidly."
"Stupid, stupid, what are you talking about?!" Hattori Heiji panicked. He felt that he was hopeless and something was getting worse and worse.
"We are getting along so well with Ye now..." Yuanzi was stunned.
Xiaolan on the side also nodded blankly, "You are so good at it. Did you suddenly become enlightened?"
"What do you think of this kind of performance, Shizu-kun?" Ayako asked in a low voice as she knelt down next to Shizuo Komemon.
"I can't appreciate it, whether it's the pale makeup or this tune." Shizuo Komemon played with the teacup boredly.
Halfway through Chika Suzu's performance, Long En came in again. He had just gone down to pick up other guests. After bringing a young man in, he introduced him.
"This is the young master of Mizuaki, Harutarou Mizuo."
Mouri Kogoro, who had been staring at Chika Suzu, suddenly came back to his senses, "This is what you said before, my fans, right? Oops, I don't seem to have a pen, how can I sign my name? Xiaolan, go ahead...
…”
"Ahem." Long Yan quickly interrupted him awkwardly, "Well, the thing is like this, Maori-san, your fan, is actually just like me and Mizuo-san, we are both kendo enthusiasts..."
"Oh, he couldn't come because he had something to do?" Mouri Kogoro suddenly realized.
"Well, something happened..." Long Zhen said in a complicated mood, "He was arrested by the Gumeimen Police Department today, and another fellow was also arrested today."
"Huh?" Mouri Kogoro looked confused.
Conan on the side reacted, "Are you talking about Saijo Taiga and Sakura Masazo? Both of them are members of Genji Hotaru. They were arrested by the Komemon Police Department and the Kyoto police today."
"I was shocked when I heard the news. We used to come here together to enjoy performances, but now it's just me and Ryuuen. It's a bit sad." Mizuo Harutaro sighed.
"By the way, I would like to thank the Gumeimen Police Department again. Thanks to your help, the consecration the day after tomorrow can be held smoothly." Long Yan had already thanked him in the temple before, and now he thanked him again.
Shizuo Komemon nodded slightly and didn't care too much, "It's okay. Detective Mori usually helps me a lot. Occasionally I help him with his commissions, so don't take it to heart."
Mouri Kogoro suddenly felt that his face was greatly improved, and his back straightened even more.
Mao Lilan had a question mark on her face, is dad really not talking nonsense? Does the Gumeimen Police Department really value him so much?
After enjoying the geisha performance, the next day everyone formed a group to go to Kiyomizu Temple to see the cherry blossoms, and then went to Rurikoin Temple, which has not yet been renamed.
Only then did I return to Tokyo with great excitement. It didn’t look like I was here for business at all, but I was really traveling.
…
In Tokyo, it was completely dark after leaving the station.
Sonoko was carrying a small white bag, stretched out, and said to Kyogoku, who was carrying two large suitcases behind him:
"I haven't had enough fun yet. Do you want to watch another movie tonight? Go shopping tomorrow?"
Kyogoku was really embarrassed, "I have to start some training in the next period of time, and there will be a competition soon... I'm sorry."
"Oh, well, if you get busy, what should I do? I don't know of any exciting and interesting things to do to pass the time..."
Yuanzi didn't force him to accompany her. She was thinking about whether she and Xiaolan would go out to watch a movie tomorrow.
She turned back to look at Xiaolan, and then she realized that she and Kyogoku had separated from the large group, and everyone else was standing behind them.
Yuanzi quickly walked back a few steps and found that they were standing in front of a newsstand, and he suddenly became curious.
"What are you doing? Even my brother-in-law is so interested in you. What is this important thing?"
Xiaolan raised her head with a strange expression on her face, "This newspaper today said that the consultant of the Suzuki Consortium took out a precious gem as a bet and challenged Kaitou Kidd..."
"Huh?!!" Sonoko suddenly became energetic, "Kidd the Kaitou?! He's here again? This is interesting. I wanted to see what he looked like before, but failed twice. Now I have another chance.
Already."
Kyogoku behind him heard the words, and his expression suddenly became a little subtle.
"Sonoko..." Xiaolan winked at her quietly, asking her to pay attention, Kyogoku-kun was there.
Seeing this, Ayako reluctantly pulled her sister's arm and changed the topic directly.
"Suzuki Jirokichi is my father's cousin, that is, Sonoko and I's uncle. I haven't seen him for a while.
Although he is not young, he has always been very energetic and likes to challenge various problems, so he is interested in Kaitou Kidd, right?"
"The hobbies of rich people..." Mouri Kogoro muttered.
Shizuo Komemon smiled and said, "Since it's your uncle's pleasure, it seems like I don't need my help."
"Well, except for the fact that the Dark Star has special meaning to our family, everything else actually doesn't matter." Ayako said with a crooked eyebrow.
"Sonoko, do you want to see what Kaitou Kidd looks like?" Kyogoku Makoto, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke.
Several people changed the topic for a long time, but in the end they still didn't avoid it, and the atmosphere was a little tense for a while.
Sonoko turned her head with a guilty conscience, and saw Kyogoku saying with a serious face: "I will catch him and show you."
"..." Yuanzi hurriedly smiled and waved his hands, "Actually, I don't really want to see it. He's just a thief. I'm just a little bit curious..."
"I will catch him. Tomorrow night, I will defeat him openly and openly and bring him back to show you."
Kyogoku really knew that he could learn the true identity of Kaitou Kidd by just asking Shizuo Komemon, and he could go directly to his home to arrest him.
But he was unwilling to do this. He wanted to knock the guy to the ground in front of Yuanzi and drag him back to show her clearly...
