Then, the old monk began to recount the background and consequences of the case.

In fact, the deceased Xiaomei was Chuanjiu's biological mother, whom he abandoned in the temple many years ago.

Three days ago, the other party suddenly came to us again, hoping to take Chuanjiu away.

Since she said that she actually secretly visits Chuanjiu every year, the old monk asked Chuanjiu to bring the temple's photo album.

As a result, Xiaomei not only failed to recognize which photo in the album was Chuanjiu, but she also failed to recognize her son who was right in front of her.

The old monk naturally could not agree to let the other party take Chuanjiu away.

As a result, Xiaomei committed suicide the next morning.

Considering that the police will definitely find out her identity after they get involved in the investigation, Chuan Jiu will probably not be able to accept it after learning the truth.

So the old monk devised a plan. He used magic to hide the body and told Chuanjiu that he had just woken up in the morning and his eyes were playing tricks on him.

As it turned out... Denji arrived with Kogoro Mouri and the others.

"Perhaps this is fate, perhaps Chuanjiu was destined to know about his origins."

The old monk lowered his squinting eyes and bowed to the Buddha. "Although I did not kill Chuanjiu's mother, she died because of me. Please take me to the police station, benefactors."

"As for Chuanjiu, if he is eavesdropping now, then he is destined to find out."

"If he did not eavesdrop, I hope you all will not reveal this."

“Abandoned children deserve some kindness.”

After saying that, Kogoro Mouri and the others remained silent, but led the old monk out through the door.

Chuan Jiu stood anxiously in the distance.

He upheld the Buddhist precepts, but by a twist of fate, he once again strayed from the truth.

...

After leaving the police station, Yusuke Suzuki and his companions drove back.

The old monk did not commit murder; he was only charged with concealing the crime, hiding the body, and interfering with the police investigation.

With the addition of various emotional factors, they might not even have to go to jail in the end.

When Hattori Heiji heard that Conan had his own small room, he insisted on staying there for the night.

In reality, having no reason to go to Shinichi Kudo's house, he could only stay at the agency.

"Yusuke-nii, I'm leaving very early tomorrow, aren't you going to see me off?"

Halfway through the journey, Hattori Heiji noticed the atmosphere inside the car was a bit somber, so he shouted out.

Yusuke Suzuki glanced at the rearview mirror. "You said it yourself, it's 'very early'."

Blackie immediately muttered, "What does it matter if it's early? I see you always get up early anyway. Besides, every time you go to Osaka, I personally see you off."

"Really, next time..."

"Okay, I'll take you to the station tomorrow."

"Next time I won't either... what did you say?"

I'll take you tomorrow.

Upon hearing Suzuki Yusuke confirm for the second time, Hattori Heiji was shocked, "Really!?"

He just said it casually and vented his frustrations, without expecting any response at all.

But Suzuki Yusuke agreed?

Can't we just follow the usual procedure?

Conan couldn't help but glance at him, somewhat surprised.

At this moment, Yusuke Suzuki readjusted the rearview mirror, saying, "That's it."

Dark-skinned man suddenly became proper, placing his hands on his knees, and said, "Oh..."

After dropping the two off, Suzuki Yusuke planned to drop off Haibara Ai as well.

Unfortunately, the little girl also stayed overnight.

Before leaving, Ai Haibara gave Yusuke Suzuki a meaningful and provocative look.

The wicked smile on her lips was as bright as a crimson full moon.

Her beauty was captivating, yet her smile also carried a hint of wickedness.

Ai Haibara seemed to be saying, "Yusuke, tonight I'm going to have two women on my left and two on my right again."

What could Yusuke Suzuki say? He could only make a quiet exit.

He can't possibly stay overnight with Conan and Blackie, embracing them both; that's too absurd, just thinking about it makes my scalp tingle.

How could I possibly have such a baseless association?

Yusuke Suzuki realized what was happening in an instant, and upon returning to the car, he slapped himself twice to bring his wildly imaginative thoughts back on track.

Even if you wanted to, it would have to be at least two women!

After he left, Conan and the others went upstairs.

The timing is awkward.

Go to sleep, it's too early.

If I don't go to sleep, it seems too late.

Fortunately, with Eri Kisaki at home, the Osaka duo had brand new topics to explore.

Conan didn't ask Heiji Hattori why he was leaving so early the next day, assuming that he was short on time or planned to return to Osaka early to investigate Rena Mizunashi.

Soon, the night grew deep and quiet.

Conan's small room was now peaceful and serene, like a cemetery.

Meanwhile, in Ran Mouri's room... three girls, two adults and one child, still lay awake with their bright eyes wide open.

The two big ones squeezed the small one in the middle.

The small one silently experiences the four large ones.

The adults lowered their voices and chatted.

The small, flanking attack filled the air with a sweet fragrance.

Those who have experienced it will naturally have a different mindset than those who haven't.

It's not a loli-turned-pervert.

Instead, he's a pervert who loves lolis.

In conclusion, he's insanely powerful.

Chapter 915 "1" and "?"

The moon sets and the sun rises; a new day begins.

Yusuke Suzuki was an early riser and worried about missing the Detective Koshien tournament, so he simply came to the detective agency and had breakfast at Poirot Cafe.

After finishing his meal, he didn't linger and immediately sent a text message to Hattori Heiji.

【1】

No response.

【? 】

No response.

【Where are you? 】

Perhaps the repeated vibrations of the phone were ineffective, as there was still no response.

It seems they haven't gotten up yet.

Blackie must have slept with Conan last night. Without Kogoro Mouri's nighttime noise attacks, he must have slept very peacefully.

Then just wait.

He was already being very kind by not calling.

"Miss Xiaozi, please bring four more sandwiches."

Yusuke Suzuki raised his hand to order food.

after an hour.

Heiji Hattori slowly woke up, grabbed his phone, and checked it.

what?

Yusuke-san really came?

He rubbed his eyes and patted his face to make sure he was awake before replying.

[Sorry, Yusuke-nii, I was sleeping so soundly I just woke up. You haven't already gone back, have you? If you have, you don't need to come over again, it's okay.]

Yusuke Suzuki replied instantly.

I'm downstairs. I won't easily go back on my word.

Dark-skinned: "......"

Wouldn't that make him feel even more guilty?

"I slept in so long... Ah... Anyway, I've already missed the first ship, I might as well go later."

Hattori Heiji got up quietly. Without even washing up, he went downstairs to pick up Suzuki Yusuke.

After the initial question mark, he spoke first, asking, "Yusuke-nii, what does that '1' you sent mean?"

"The meaning of a question mark is easy to understand with a little thought, but this '1' is a bit puzzling to me."

Yusuke Suzuki kept his voice low as he explained, "It's just a simple signal of inquiry."

"For example, if I promised to drive you today, the '1' means, 'I'm ready, are you?'"
