Chapter 24
Missing
Edogawa Conan can't match Daterui's hot eyes. When Daterui flashed his big "bulingbuling" eyes, Edogawa Conan seemed to give up resistance and fool the past.
"Well, you can think so." Edogawa Conan said, "But if you meet strange people like Mafia, Date, it's better to stay away. These days you... we should follow Sister Xiaolan. With Uncle Mouri."
Daterui nodded. In fact, Edogawa Conan did not explain the essential difference between the two. But since Conan said this, Idarui still kept his words in mind.
"Follow up quickly, Conan, Liui."
Mao Lilan followed the others and walked far away from the two children. She saw that Edogawa Conan and Date Liui did not keep up with their pace. He called Conan and Liu Yi behind him.
When Idarui and the others came to the main house, Mr. Mihara had already asked Mihara Chika's two brothers, namely Mihara Tsubasa and Mihara Ryougo, to sit on the chairs together and talk about things at home and Mihara's eldest son and his son. Son, the two of them had a 'small talk' about work issues in their office.
When Idarui saw Ono Satoshi, he stood upright and blocked all the 'greetings' from Mr. Mihara that were like judgment for Chika Mihara who had not yet arrived.
"Miss Qianhua."
Onochi turned his attention to the door after hearing the movement at the door.
Everyone in the main room turned their attention to the door because of Ono Satoshi's "Miss Qianhua".
Master Mihara's expression changed strangely when he saw Mouri Kogoro and his group following Chika, which reflected Edogawa Conan's eyes.
But soon Master Mihara seemed to be disapproving and said in a mocking tone: "Qianhua, why did you bring everyone home? Is our Mihara home a shelter?"
"I'm sorry, father, this is me and The recently famous Mr. Mouri Kogoro and his family you mentioned." Mihara Chika had an apology on her face. After bowing to Mr. Mihara, she explained and introduced Moori Kogoro and others.
When they heard the name Mouri Kogoro, except for Ono Satoshi, who had already met him, and Mihara Chika, who had brought Daterui and others, the remaining three people opened their eyes slightly.
After hearing what Chika Mihara said, Master Mihara stood up and came to Kogoro Mori and said: "So this is Mr. Mori who has become famous recently. I have admired his name for a long time."
"I am the current head of the Mihara family. Well... it's just a name. Just call me by my last name. Standing behind me are my two sons, the eldest son Tsubasa and the second son Ryogo."
After Mr. Mihara extended his hand, Mouri Kogoro shook his hand in a symbolic gesture. Mr. Mihara had no intention of answering Kogoro Mouri's words. He continued, "My daughter has caused trouble for Mr. Mouri. How could she invite you without saying a word to us or letting anyone pass the message on? Can you ask the steward to prepare some delicious food for you?"
Mr. Mihara's words were clear complaints, and he even looked at Mihara Chika with questioning eyes, who did not speak and gave them enough space to communicate.
Seeing this, Mouri Kogoro scratched his head and said for Mihara Chika: "Where are you? Miss Chika took good care of you today, but we came suddenly and didn't bring you anything, hahahaha."
Mouri Kogoro's actions Although the Mihara family didn't know how to answer the call, luckily Mao Lilan pulled his arm, which stopped Uncle Mao Li from saying anything more.
"Ha."
Mihara Tsubasa sneered without saying anything. He thought he was some big shot. After seeing Mouri Kogoro's somewhat unserious but pretending to be serious, he felt from the bottom of his heart that his sister was unkind. .
But Mihara Tsubasa didn't say what was in his heart.
Then Mihara Tsubasa pushed up his glasses and said very confidently: "Dad, I also invited a famous detective from Yokohama that you have always wanted to meet this afternoon. I believe you will be very happy to see him. "
Mihara Tsubasa looked at the calm Mihara Chika like a child trying to win praise from his elders.
When Chika Mihara ignored him, Tsubasa Mihara gave up his ulterior motives towards her.
"Father, it's lunch time. You see, we are eating and chatting at the dinner table." After the person in charge said in Mihara Ryogo's ear, he recalled the thoughts of everyone present.
Mr. Miyuan nodded and invited everyone to join the table.
"It's a coincidence that I also asked a private detective from Yoneka Town for advice. Maybe he has also heard of the name Maori Detective." Mihara Ryougo took the initiative to stir up the topic.
Mouri Kogoro replied: "Really... May I ask what the detective's name is?"
"He will come to Mihara's house in the evening, and you two can meet at that time." Mihara Ryougo explained.
"Huh?" Mao Lilan whispered. She thought it was the person she was thinking of. Although she felt a little bad, she still took the initiative to ask, "Can I take the liberty to ask if that person's surname is Kudo?"
" Kudo? Ah...that's not the case." Mihara Ryogo was puzzled by what Mao Lilan said, but he still denied what the other party said.
[I originally wanted to say that Conan would be better off, but I didn’t expect that this person directly denied that the private detective he was looking for was Shinichi. 】
【Private detective from Yoneka Town...let me guess who it is. First of all, isn't it Shinichi...Toru? No, he's at Café Poirot today... It's impossible for Brother Cat, so who else...]
[Port Mafia and the Armed Detective Agency? Hiss, is it a linkage? Qingshan, you have made a difference! 】
【Wandering around, the only person that the detective of Rice Flower Town can say is probably Uncle Mouri, when will Shinichi show his face again. ]
[I cried on the Nth day when I missed Shinichi. 】
"Liui." Mao Lilan looked at Date Liui who was still staring at the main house after finishing the meal and said, "It's time for us to go. After we go to find Conan, let's go to Yokohama for a walk."
" Well!"
Ida Liuyi nodded, and then took Mao Lilan's hand and left the main house together. However, Idarui was not at ease. She still felt strange and worried when she saw Mouri Kogoro still staying in the main house of the Mihara family.
"Sister Xiaolan, is it really okay if we leave Uncle Maori here alone and don't wait to take him with us?" Ida Liuyi looked at Mao Lilan who was holding her little hand tightly. She looked at Xiaolan's expression. In fact, there was a faint hint of worry, but Idarui still asked Maorilan what he thought.
Mao Lilan said: "Dad, he still has work. If he can solve Miss Qianhua's matter today, he can go with him tomorrow. Liu Yi doesn't have to worry."
After the two found Conan, Mao Lilan stopped him . Edogawa Conan looking at the water by the Mihara family's pond.
"Sister Xiaolan, should we stay at Mihara's house today and go with Uncle Maori tomorrow?"
After hearing Maorilan's call, Edogawa Conan's eyes turned from the pond to the two people behind him. On people, so Edogawa Conan said so.
But Mao Lilan was a little confused after hearing what Edogawa Conan said, "Huh? But isn't Conan interested in other attractions in Yokohama? Yesterday you said you wanted to visit Chinatown."
"Well..." Edogawa Conan scratched his head, and then he said: "And I'm not too worried about Uncle Maori staying here alone. Sister Xiaolan is also worried about his uncle."
Conversation between Edogawa Conan and Maori Lan In the meantime, Ida Liuyi was going back and forth between the two of them. Then Mao Lilan asked Ida Liuyi for her opinion. Liu Yi thought about it and looked at Xiaolan and Conan seriously with her eyes wide open: "We Let's accompany Uncle Mouri today. Traveling is fun when there are many people."
When Idarui and the others were in the courtyard, they met Ono Satoshi who had come out of the main house after being reprimanded.
Ono Satoshi didn't look good, but after seeing Idarui and the others, his face instantly turned into a smile. Idarui was originally attracted by the Mihara family's ornamental plants and priceless antiques. When Ohno Satoshi came to them, Ryui turned his attention to Ohno Satoshi.
His chat with Mao Lilan was nothing more than asking why Mao Lilan and the others didn't go shopping around.
When Mao Lilan wasn't paying attention, Edogawa Conan had already quietly gone to a place they didn't know.
Idarui saw the disappearance of Edogawa Conan without saying a word, but when she looked at Maori Ran and Ohno Satoshi, they didn't notice the disappearance of Edogawa Conan at all. Idarui Yi didn't know if he should interrupt their conversation and tell them the news that Edogawa Conan had just left.
Just then Ohno Satoshi said that he would take them to the living room to wait for Mouri Kogoro, Daterui pointed in the direction where Edogawa Conan had just left, turned their attention to him and said, "Uncle Ohno , I want to ask where it is over there. Is it the same room as the main room and the living room? "
Ohno
Satoshi bent down slightly and looked in the direction Idarui pointed. , he pushed up his glasses and responded to Idarui softly, "That's the courtyard that the master specially set aside for his wife. So far, neither Miss Qianhua nor any other young master, we have ever seen it.
"Huh? Why?" Ida Liuyi didn't understand, so she said her inner thoughts. Finally, she covered her mouth and looked at Mao Lilan and apologized to Ohno Satoshi . "I'm sorry."
"You don't have to apologize." Ohno Satoshi rubbed Idarui's hair and said, "Actually, it's because Mrs. Mihara... passed away ten years ago, so Mr. Mihara went out of his way to My wife’s habits and favorite things have been preserved and remembered.”
