On the third day after the concert at Shiodome Arena, Gao Yuan received news from Officer Megure that the truth about Mr. Sakano's death had basically been determined. As for the remaining cases related to three years ago, the police were still working hard to trace them, but
It has nothing to do with Gao Yuan anymore.
When he got the news, the settlement panel also appeared in time, but just as Gao Yuan expected, he would definitely not get the "S" level this time——
After all, under the circumstances at that time, Gao Yuan just wanted to end the case quickly, find the culprit, help the three girls as much as possible, and destroy the possible videos directly, without paying attention to too many details.
Therefore, as long as the result is good, then the evaluation can be ignored——
What's more, Gao Yuan would not deliberately brush up the reviews.
Therefore, Gao Yuan, who was staying at Dr. A Li's house, after reading the settlement panel, continued to complete some processes at Dr. A Li's house——
That's right, this time, Gao Yuan came to Dr. A Li, hoping that Dr. A Li could help him make a sword-shaped brooch.
Since he received the brooch from Tie Zhuyu from "Izumo Yukino" whose real name was unknown, Gao Yuan couldn't help but remember that he had not received the previous reward of "Queen of Swords".
So, looking at this valuable brooch, Gao Yuan recalled that night, the three "kendo girls" he saw wearing different sword-shaped brooches on their chests. He couldn't help but get some inspiration, and started to design one.
, with the main shape of a tachi not fully unsheathed, and a brooch embellished with diamonds.
For this reason, Gao Yuan went out to buy some silver nuggets and diamonds of good quality. The total cost was controlled at about 100,000 yen. Then he took the design drawings and materials and found Dr. Ali, hoping that he could help him.
Make this brooch.
Faced with Gao Yuan's intention, Dr. Ali immediately agreed. He quickly made a mold based on the three-view drawing given by Gao Yuan, melted the silver ingot into shape, and finally polished the brooch and set the diamonds.
As for these processes, they were not difficult for Gao Yuan, who had done a metalworking internship. Dr. Ali didn't have any more trouble, so he borrowed Dr. Ali's tools and got busy.
And just when it was about to be completed, a call came to Gao Yuan——
It's Xiaolan.
After answering the phone, Gao Yuan received a request from Xiao Lan - he hoped that Gao Yuan would serve as the bodyguard of "Miss Hefeng".
As for the reason, we have to start talking about it not long ago——
…
"Huh? You want me to be Miss Zefeng's personal bodyguard?"
In the Mouri Detective Agency, facing the three guests in front of him, Mouri Kogoro couldn't help but drop the tea cup he was holding in his hands.
"Ah! So hot, so hot -"
The scalding hot tea splashed onto his shirt, and Kogoro immediately screamed.
"Ah, Dad, you are too!"
Xiaolan, who was serving tea to the guests, saw the scene at this moment and quickly put the tray on the table and wiped Kogoro's shirt with a wet cloth.
"Really..."
In the corner of the detective agency, Conan couldn't help but sigh as he watched all this.
"Did it embarrass you..."
A timid-looking young woman wearing plain clothes lowered her head and asked in a low voice.
"Speaking of 'Miss Japanese Style', is it the same beauty pageant as 'Miss Japan'? I remember it was quite famous because of the wedding dress competition."
Kogoro asked hurriedly without paying much attention to the fact that he was burned by the tea just now.
"Well, yes."
Upon hearing Kogoro's question, the young woman just nodded in response.
Then, she saw Kogoro suddenly become excited, patted his chest, and laughed heartily.
In response to this, the woman couldn't help but feel a little at a loss.
"Ah ha ha ha! Miss Kotobuki, how could I refuse such a commission? I, Kogoro Mouri, will not hesitate to risk my life if it is for a beautiful woman!"
Slightly suppressing his smile, Kogoro agreed proudly, and then he still couldn't help the joy in his heart and laughed. It wasn't until he noticed that Xiaolan was staring at him with a sullen face that he quickly pretended to cough.
With a sound, his serious expression returned.
"My daughter Hualian has not officially become Miss Hefeng yet."
The middle-aged woman sitting next to the young woman, wearing gorgeous solid-color clothing, is the mother of "Miss Shou". At this moment, she is looking at Kogoro who just lost his temper with a stern look.
"Oh, that's right. If I remember correctly, the competition should be tonight."
It seemed that he was overwhelmed by the momentum just now, but Kogoro quickly cheered up and continued to ask.
"However, Miss Shou Hualian is the most promising candidate to win, right? This is also what was published in the weekly magazine released today."
Kogoro pointed at the magazine spread out on the table and couldn't help but say.
In the magazine, I saw a lovely woman with shining black hair and a tapered chin, smiling at the reader.
"Oh, she's so beautiful...that cute smile, plump lips...he's 1.75 meters tall, and her bust is..."
Kogoro couldn't help but talk excitedly, as if he couldn't stop.
In response to this, Xiaolan immediately coughed loudly several times, trying to remind him of his attitude.
The effect was quite immediate. Kogoro immediately changed his face, started laughing and said:
"Ah, how rude of me. Haha... However, the organizers of the beauty pageant should have deployed comprehensive security forces, right?"
"Yes, the security force of the beauty pageant itself should be foolproof. However, this morning, my sister Hualian received a threatening letter."
Shou Hualian's sister, a timid-looking woman, Shou Meimei, opened her mouth to explain, and when she spoke, she looked very scared.
"What?"
After hearing Shou Meimei's words, the atmosphere in the office suddenly became tense.
"Yes, so we are also in a dilemma."
The middle-aged man with a beer belly sitting next to Shou Meimei kept wiping the sweat on his forehead with a handkerchief, showing a troubled expression on his face.
"You are the person in charge of the competition, Mr. Daigo Miura, right?"
Kogoro looked at the business card placed on the table and asked.
"Yes."
Miura Daigo nodded in response.
"So, where is the threatening letter?"
Kogoro asked.
"My sister took it away, but I still remember the content... it should be..."
Shou Meimei replied with a panic look on her face:
"'Beloved Hualian, tonight, I will shoot through your heart and make you my string puppet. The only consequence for disobeying me is 'death'!"..."
"On the other hand, as long as you disobey him, the only outcome will be 'death'... Well, it is indeed a threatening letter."
After listening to the content, Kogoro crossed his arms, frowned and thought...
