Chapter 117 Returning to Jiang Shou's Home2-22, Yoneka-cho. In the small courtyard of Dr. Agasa's house. There were five small chairs placed on the soft lawn. As usual, the Junior Detective Team gathered here after school. "Well, this month we received six fewer commissions than last month, and they were all jobs to find cats and dogs. Our Junior Detective Team is really being wasted." Mitsuhiko, who had some pockmarks on his face, was flipping through the notebook in his hand with a depressed look on his face. But when he looked up, he found that he seemed to be the only one who cared about these things. Genta was only busy eating the watermelon on the table, Conan was leaning his head and was obviously in a daze, Ayumi's eyes were glued to Conan next to her, and Haibara just lowered her head and concentrated on stirring the coffee in the cup. Mitsuhiko was a little discouraged: "I said... are you guys listening?" Yuan Tai's mouth was stained with a large piece of watermelon juice, and he mumbled with a full mouth: "Mom said that thinking about those troubles while eating is the greatest disrespect to food!"
I think you are just greedy! Conan complained to himself, then came back to his senses and comforted him: "It's a good thing that there are fewer and fewer cases. Think about it, if there are more cases every month, doesn't it mean that this society is getting worse?" "But..." Mitsuhiko was still unwilling. Huiyuan yawned and said, "Besides, you can't do anything, right? There are always some things in this world that are beyond our control... Thinking too much will only make you age prematurely." Don't say these negative things to children! Conan rolled his eyes at Huibara, looking helpless. He changed the subject and asked, "What do you want to do today?" Mitsuhiko lowered his head and flipped through his notebook again, confirming, "Well... there are no commissions today, so we have a free afternoon." Yuan Tai immediately raised his hand: "How about playing games? Didn't we still not finish the game from a few days ago?" "No way." Ayumi retorted loudly: "Conan is such a wimp, it's too pitiful to have to just stand by and watch!" ...Thank you! The corners of Conan's mouth twitched, and he felt really tired. Mitsuhiko then suggested: "How about playing football? The weather is so nice today, and Conan is also good at it." Ayumi and Genta looked at each other and agreed. Yuantai rushed into the doctor's house, rushed out again holding a football, and shouted: "Then let's go quickly! If we are late, there will be no more space!" "It's okay, Yuantai." Mitsuhiko shook his head, stood up slowly, and pointed his finger strategically: "Xiaoling will go there to play every day, we can just join him when the time comes." "Really? Mitsuhiko!" Ayumi, who was sitting next to him, jumped for joy and praised, "You are so attentive!" Mitsuhiko's face flushed, he scratched his cheek and stammered, "No...nothing either." Yuan Tai glared at him unhappily: "Then you have to leave quickly!"
Ayumi stood up: "Conan, Ai, you guys come quickly too!" "I don't need it." Conan waved his hand: "I still have some things to do in the afternoon, so... I hope you have fun." "How can this be possible!" Ayumi looked at him dissatisfiedly: "You haven't participated in our group activities for half a month!" Conan smiled awkwardly. Mitsuhiko looked at Huibara and said, "What about you, Huibara-san? Let's go play together!" Huiyuan yawned again and said coldly: "I won't go either. I didn't sleep much last night. I'll go catch up on some sleep later." "Ah~!" The three of them yelled and left listlessly. "Oh my, it's incredible that the great detective would refuse his favorite football." After everyone left, Huibara drank the coffee in one gulp and looked to the side teasingly. Conan's half-moon eyes: "Don't come on, I don't want to play with children." "Oh? But I see you usually enjoy it." Huibara glanced at him. Conan immediately complained: "It's better than your eccentric behavior, which is not like the behavior of a child at all... I say, Huiyuan, your body is only seven years old now, if you don't want to be discovered, just disguise yourself!" Huibara snorted, "I'm really sorry. I've been like this since I was a child." “…I was defeated by you!” Conan slapped his head and jumped off the chair: "Then you stay here, I'm going out too." Huiyuan remained noncommittal. After basking in the sun for a while, she was about to walk back home with her hands behind her back when she suddenly noticed three more heads at the door. It was the Boy Detective Team that just left! "...Didn't you go play football? Why are you back again?" Ayumi clenched her fist and said, "Because we also want to know what Conan is busy with?" "That's right!" Mitsuhiko continued, "We are a team. If Conan gets into trouble, of course we have to help!" Yuanta nodded to show his attitude: "Haibara, aren't you curious?" "I guess it's about the Suzuki Group?" Huibara raised her hand. "Suzuki Group?" Yuan Tai asked, "Are you talking about Sister Sonoko?" Mitsuhiko slammed his fist into his palm: "Ah! I remember! I saw the news today saying that the director of the Suzuki Group was kidnapped!"
"Eh?! Kidnapping?!" Ayumi was a little worried: "What is his relationship with Sister Sonoko?" "It's father." Huihara said in a flat voice. !!! The three little ones suddenly widened their eyes. Huiyuan continued, "So Edogawa doesn't have time recently, so you guys just go and have fun by yourselves." "How is this okay?!" Mitsuhiko immediately ignited a burning fighting spirit: "We, the Junior Detective Team, are a whole team! And Sonoko-sister is so kind, we have to help her too!" "That's right!" Yuan Taibu Mei nodded in unison. Huiyuan sighed. She really didn't want to care, but she was worried about them going out alone: "What are you going to do?" The three kids looked at each other, and finally Guangyan said, "No matter what, let's follow and see!" …… In the taxi, Conan sat in the back with his chin held up. Yesterday, due to the death of Jiang Shouzhezhisuke, they could not stay in Jiang Shou's house, and left directly after the investigation. There was no time to ask Jiang Shouhuang some questions. But Su Beixun's death was strange. Jiang Shouhuang, who had been with him these days, should know a lot. In addition, the kid deliberately concealed the reason why he was released yesterday... Conan is going to make this trip again no matter what! I don’t know how long it took. The taxi stopped. Conan saw the familiar gate and paid and got off the car. There are a lot of people here, but it's not noisy. Everyone coming in and out was dressed in black suits and had a solemn look on their faces. Conan knew that they were all here to pay their respects. After all, he is the head of a large conglomerate, so it is not surprising if more people come. Conan looked down at himself and remained silent. Damn! I forgot to change my clothes! He looked at his blue suit and his mouth twitched, thinking it was too bright in this scene. But since he was already here, he had no choice but to go ahead. There was no one guarding the gate today, and he easily passed through it by blending in with the crowd.
Conan subconsciously looked at the land to the right behind the gate. ——That’s where two people died yesterday. But now it is very clean, and all the broken pieces of flesh and blood have been cleared away. "The consortium has its privileges." He sighed secretly. A normal crime scene should be sealed off and preserved, but this clearly was not the case here. Following everyone inside, Conan soon saw a small mourning hall. A beautiful but haggard lady was there receiving the visitors. When Conan came up to her, he called out, "Auntie!" Ogura Junxia was stunned for a moment before she looked down and saw the child in front of her. She squatted down and asked patiently, "What's wrong, kid? Did you get lost from your family?" "Hmm~" Conan shook his head: "My name is Edogawa Conan, and I'm Akira's friend. I was here last night too, so I was a little worried about him." "Is that so?" Ogura Junxia forced a smile: "Are you here to visit Xiao Huang?" Conan nodded. Ogura Junxia touched his head and pointed to the house behind him: "Thank you, Conan, Xiao Huang is on the second floor... In fact, I am also worried about the child, but as you can see, I really can't leave, so can you help me accompany him?" "Of course!" Conan assured. He was about to say goodbye, but Ogura Junxia suddenly looked behind him: "...Are these children with you too?" Eh? Conan turned his head and found four children hiding behind other people, looking at this place furtively. His eyes suddenly widened: "Yuanta, Ayumi, Mitsuhiko... why are you here?" Seeing the last figure, he turned into a half-moon eye and complained: "Graybara, why are you also fooling around with them?" "What are you talking about! We thought you were investigating a case, but you actually came to such a big place to have fun without telling us. You're going too far!" Yuan Tai complained loudly. Conan's expression changed: "Idiot!" He lowered his voice but raised his tone: "Don't speak so loudly here!" "why?" Mitsuhiko quickly told him: "This is the most basic etiquette, Yuantai! Apologize quickly!" "oh oh!"
Yuan Tai was stunned. He was a little confused, but he immediately bent down and said, "I'm sorry!" "I told you not to..." Conan was speechless at his loud voice. But Ogura Junxia interrupted him with a smile: "It's okay, children should be full of energy." She touched Yuantai's head to comfort him: "It's not good for the little boy to stay here for too long, go and play with Xiaohuang." Conan was really afraid of them, so he immediately took them out of the mourning hall and walked towards the house in the center of the villa. "Wow! It's so big here!" Yuantai exclaimed as he looked at the garden surrounding the house. Mitsuhiko also nodded calmly: "Indeed, such a large villa is really rare in Tokyo!" Ayumi was also very happy looking at the flowers in front of her. Conan felt his forehead hurt: "So, what are you guys doing here?" "We want to help you!" Ayumi was very serious. "That's right." Mitsuhiko also agreed: "It's really unteam spirit for one person to sneak away!" Conan was speechless. He looked at Huibara, who had been silent just now, and was about to ask her why she didn't stop them from following, when he suddenly noticed that Huibara's face was pale, and she was lowering her head and trembling slightly. "Hey! Huiyuan! What's wrong with you?" Conan's face changed and he stepped forward and held her shoulders. Huibara grabbed his arm with her backhand, her fingertips turned white, and her voice was weak: "Run away, Kudo!" She raised her head and stared at him with eyes full of fear: "There are organized people here!" "What did you say?!" Conan's pupils shrank sharply: "Did you see them? Where? Who are they?" "Do not." Huiyuan shook her head: "I didn't see it." She looked back cautiously. The mourning hall was still crowded with people. "But just now in the mourning hall, I could feel the cold aura that belonged to the organization..." Huiyuan's eyes were somewhat distracted as he spoke: "That terrifying look of staring at its prey, and that oppressive feeling as if all of its internal organs were being hollowed out... I can't be wrong! It must be them!" Conan frowned. Why are the people from the organization here? He suddenly remembered the unknown sniper who killed Su Beixun yesterday, and the information Huiyuan had said that the organization was hostile to Su Beixun... Conan understood a lot in an instant! He said solemnly: "Huiyuan, take them and hide in the house! Since the organization's people are in the mourning hall, the house should be safe!"
"……and many more!" Huiyuan grabbed his hand and said, "Are you going back, Edogawa?" "Of course!" Conan showed a matter-of-fact expression: "We finally found out their flaws, how can we let them go so easily?!" "I disagree!" It's rare for Huihara to lose her composure. She shouted, "These kids came here with you. If you are discovered, they will die too!" "it does not matter!" Conan smiled confidently: "I am just a child in their eyes. No matter what I do, it won't be strange. They won't notice me." Huiyuan took a deep breath and said, "Listen, great detective! Even if you won't be discovered, what can you do if you go back now? Do you have to ask them one by one if they are members of the organization?" Conan rolled his eyes: "Of course I'm not stupid." He raised the phone in his hand and said, "I will secretly take photos of everyone first, and then investigate them one by one." Conan said as he broke free from Huibara's hand: "Don't worry, I'll be back soon!" "…Hey! Edogawa!" Haibara shouted, but she could only see Conan's back gradually moving away. "Ai, what were you talking about just now?" Ayumi was confused. Yuanta scratched his head: "Why did Conan go back again? Did he leave something behind?" Mitsuhiko said: "Then let's go back and help him find it!" "Ok!" "Don't move!" Huiyuan turned around and shouted at them coldly, "From now on, you are not allowed to go anywhere! Stay in that house obediently!" Frightened by her eerie expression, the three little ones quickly stood up and said, "Yes!" Taking a deep breath, Huibara looked at Conan again. Be careful... She led the three of them into the house in front of them. As soon as I opened the door, I heard a puzzled voice. "Ah, who are you?" Just on the stairs between the first and second floors, a little child was standing there looking at them in confusion. "So fat!" Mitsuhiko said subconsciously: "He's almost as fat as Genta!" Yuan Tai's face darkened as he punched down: "Do you have any opinion about me?"
"...No, I don't dare." "Don't do this!" Ayumi immediately stopped their impolite behavior and took the initiative to approach him and stretched out her hand: "Hello, my name is Yoshida Ayumi, can we be friends?" (End of this chapter)
