Conan: Start from Lucky Three

Chapter 176 Suspicions Gradually Confirmed

"Not long after Kudo Yusaku and Kudo Yukiko were released, Conan was taken back by Professor Agasa."

"Conan was picked up by Professor Agasa? The one who was captured along with the Kudo couple?

How did he get Conan?"

Hattori Heiji didn't know much about Conan's entry into the Mori Detective Agency, and was immediately confused.

Tachibana Shizuka kindly explained to him: "Didn't I say at the beginning that Conan was staying at Ran's house?

It was Dr. Agasa who suggested that Conan stay at Ran's house. It was Dr. Agasa who came to pick Conan up this time.

Conan said that he had troubled Xiaolan for so long that he felt embarrassed to continue to trouble her.

"Didn't Xiaolan feel something was wrong? No, Conan just let Professor Agasa take him away like that?"

Hattori Heiji has also seen Conan. It is obvious that the kid is not an honest child. Calling him a naughty kid is a compliment to him.

Besides, Xiaolan also likes Conan very much. At least before Conan got into trouble, she was very indulgent towards this kid.

Of course I still like him now, but I like him to be a little stricter. For example, when Maori Kogoro is teaching Conan a lesson, Xiaolan will not stop him, but will support Maori Kogoro's teaching.

When father and daughter are of one mind, they can accomplish anything.

"What if Conan disagrees? Can he really change the decision made by an elder like Professor Agasa?"

Tachibana Shizuka shook his head. He happened to be at the office the day Dr. Agasa came to negotiate. The doctor didn't know what was going on, but when he saw him, he looked at him like he was seeing the plague.

She didn't even want to make eye contact with Tachibana Shizuka.

By the way, Tachibana Shizuka also wants to get to know this great inventor.

Although Dr. Agasa does not produce arms, it is still possible for him to make some minor adjustments to Tachibana Shizuka's pistol.

Tachibana Shizuka has great faith in the scientific literacy of this great inventor. If this doctor puts his heart into it, he will definitely surpass most of the world's firearms masters.

It’s a pity that Dr. Agasa didn’t give me a chance.

As for Conan, he refused at first, and even wanted to use the method of a naughty child to reject Dr. Agasa.

But after Professor Agasa whispered to him for a while, Conan agreed. Although he seemed a little reluctant, he did not refuse.

Shizuka Tachibana guessed that what Professor Agasa was relaying at the time was probably what the Kudo couple said.

Are the couple planning to raise the child themselves? Are they planning to accompany Conan through his upbringing all over again?
"Lan, she's definitely reluctant to let go. But she's always been a sensible girl, isn't she?

Strictly speaking, Conan's temporary guardian should be Dr. Agasa. Now that Dr. Agasa wants to take Conan back, Ran won't say anything."

"As for Uncle Maori, he's even happier."

Maori Kogoro must be happy, after all, he had a lot of trouble when Conan was around. Xiaolan was so obedient and sensible that he basically didn't feel the trouble of raising a naughty child.

Now Conan has found them all.

As for the business of the agency, it is actually the same whether Conan is there or not.

Even though Conan had a lot of murder cases, it was useless. The client was either the murderer or the victim, and no matter which one, Kogoro couldn't continue to ask for money. Most of the murders solved by Conan became the support of Kogoro's fame. But honestly, Kogoro's fame was enough now.

Being a famous detective is basically a permanent accreditation. Unless someone fails a case and the whole country knows about it, their reputation as a famous detective will remain untouched.

The firm's current revenue stream comes primarily from commissions from people seeking Kogoro Mouri's fame as a famous detective, such as foreign language research or finding cats and dogs. Other sources of income include invitations to appear on television programs, commercial endorsements, and image licensing.
To put it bluntly, they are not much different from internet celebrities.

Of course, the affairs that Kogoro Mouri is investigating now are all affairs of rich people, and the cats and dogs they find are also cats and dogs of rich people.

After all, as you become more famous, the people you serve become rich people.

Anyway, Conan's departure is not a bad thing for Kogoro Mouri. Instead, it allows him to have more time to make money.

After all, there were murders every few days, which delayed Kogoro Mouri's normal work time a lot.

"Hey, Tachibana. I have a very outrageous theory now. Do you want to listen to it?" Hattori Heiji hesitated for a while and asked Tachibana Shizuka.

"Ah, I guess I can guess what your reasoning is, because I have the same guess."

The Kudo couple had practically exposed Conan. It was fine to hide this from others, but it was impossible to hide it from Hattori Heiji.

Tachibana Shizuka has known Conan's identity for a long time, and even in his previous life, he and countless others watched Kudo Shinichi being knocked unconscious by Gin.

Even the annual sap.

The two of them said this and then looked at each other in silence, because the idea of ​​rejuvenation was still too ridiculous.

In his previous life, Tachibana Shizuka only watched "Detective Conan" as an anime, and no one took anime seriously.

But now he really saw Conan, the elementary school student, and knew that he was a high school student who had transformed back. This strong impact of cognition, accompanied by Hattori Heiji, finally washed over Tachibana Shizuka.

"Fuck rejuvenation, is that so exaggerated?" Tachibana Shizuka suddenly cursed and sighed.

"What do you mean by rejuvenation?" Just as Tachibana Shizuka was sighing, the owner of the hotel, who was also the organizer of the tour group, walked in happily from outside.

He has reason to be happy.

The price of the Sherlock Holmes themed tour group is not cheap, just like when you go to KTV to sing, the ordinary fruit plate lady and the themed lady are naturally not in the same price range.

His tour group was at the top of the mountain, and there weren't many attractions around. On weekdays, there weren't many people staying there.

But ever since he came up with the idea for the Sherlock Holmes-themed tour group, the hotel has been fully booked every few months. There are even fans of Sherlock Holmes coming to visit, and business is much better than before.

People feel cheerful when good things happen to them. Since the hotel business has picked up, he has been in such a cheerful mood most of the time.

"Nothing, we were just discussing the content of a light novel." Tachibana Shizuka said casually.

"It's a light novel, not bad." The hotel owner still had a smiling face, but Tachibana Shizuka clearly saw a hint of disdain in his eyes.

He acted as if reading mystery novels made him superior to those who read light novels.

Tsk, we are just entertaining the public, why should we distinguish between high and low?

"By the way, the others will be here soon, and our event will start soon. You two must have been looking forward to this for a long time!"
