Conan: Above all force, there is truth!

This situation lasted for five years.

Until Shinichi Kudo became Conan, he was still instilling in himself the idea of ​​Sherlock Holmes.

What great detectives need to exercise more, how does he view the Reichenbach Falls incident, etc.

Although as he grew older, Shinichi Kudo added many of his own unique perspectives to the story.

But... isn't this still the same old story?

You think I won't recognize you just because you changed your identity?!

Therefore, even Tatsuno, who was not very familiar with Sherlock Holmes, knows the cases and stories in Sherlock Holmes like the back of his hand.

Upon hearing the words "Sherlock Holmes," Longye immediately hung up the phone.

A moment later, the phone rang again, and Longye answered it with a dark expression.

"Oh dear, Ryūno-nii. The call seems to have dropped accidentally~"

"Listen to me..."

Just as Tatsuno was about to crush his phone, he suddenly remembered that there seemed to be a Sherlock Holmes case in the original story.

It seems to be some kind of Sherlock Holmes tour group.

Of course, the reason he remembered this case was not because of Sherlock Holmes, but because of the appearance of Hattori Heiji!

In this case, Heiji Hattori saw through Conan's identity and pointed out that he was actually Shinichi Kudo.

That makes me think it's been a long time since I've encountered any cases.

Or, how about we go tease Conan and Kuroki and have some fun?

Thinking of this, Longye interrupted Conan's vivid sales pitch and simply said, "Alright, that's enough! Time and place?"

Upon hearing that Ryūno had agreed to join the tour, Conan immediately told him the time and place over the phone.

After hanging up the phone, a strange white light shone on Conan's glasses.

He smirked and muttered, "Hmph! I knew you were a big fan of Sherlock Holmes too!"

"Although you always say you're not a detective, I know that a spark of reasoning lies hidden within you!"

"Let's have a long-awaited competition! Who is the real Sherlock Holmes fan, you or me!"

"Who is Holmes's true disciple?!"

After saying that, Conan walked towards Professor Agasa while grinning foolishly.

Seeing Shinichi's strange appearance, Professor Agasa involuntarily took two steps back.

……

same moment

Osaka

A boy dressed entirely in black looked at the text message on his phone and revealed a confident smile.

"The Holmes Travel Group...that guy seems to be a huge fan of Sherlock Holmes, doesn't he?"

"I have a feeling you'll be there!"

"I've arrived, Shinichi Kudo!!!"

Chapter 91 Head Hit, Chairman Covers Up

in a few days

A station wagon was traveling along a bumpy mountain road.

"You enjoy studying scarlet, huh?"

"Yes! That was Holmes's very first and most memorable work, marking his very debut!"

"As for me, I like the content about the Red-Headed League the most!"

"..."

The people inside the car were excitedly discussing matters related to Sherlock Holmes.

Kogoro Mouri, sandwiched among the crowd, rested his chin on his hand, feeling extremely bored.

"Hey! Why should I join Holmes' tour with you two?"

Kogoro Mouri looked speechlessly at Tatsuno and Conan in front of him and complained.

"Who told Conan to sign up and get selected... Uncle Mori, just treat it as a vacation."

Upon hearing this, Ryuno glanced at Conan, who was smiling broadly beside him, and reassured Kogoro Mouri.

The reason Uncle Mori is here is quite simple; just think about it from a different perspective and you'll understand.

Why was Conan selected to join the tour group?

He's not the famous "Shinichi Kudo" anymore; he's just an elementary school student.

The answer is simple: he capitalized on the popularity of "Detective Kogoro Mouri".

This kid probably wrote down his guardian's name—Kogoro Mouri—in his registration letter.

It's worth noting that through Conan's tireless efforts, Uncle Mori has successfully solved numerous cases and appeared on television and in newspapers countless times.

The nicknames "Detective Kogoro Mouri" and "Sleeping Kogoro" have long been widely known.

Not to mention that the organizer was originally a Sherlock Holmes fan.

He probably knew who Uncle Mori was the moment he saw the name "Kogoro Mori".

Come on, for a hardcore mystery fan, what could be more interesting than inviting a real detective to a party?

Therefore, the person the organizer really wanted to invite might not be Conan, but rather the Mori uncle behind him.

Thinking about this, Longye suddenly felt a little confused, even though he knew why Conan had brought Uncle Mori along.

But he still couldn't figure out why this kid had asked him to come along.

He is neither a Sherlock Holmes fan nor a lover of reasoning and detective work.

So... what was the purpose of this kid calling him here?

Damn! Is this another attempt to educate him about the history of Sherlock Holmes?

After considering this guess, Tatsuno gazed longingly at Conan's large head.

"Let me think, how many packages did you pack last time? Let me pack one more this time..."

"..."

Conan, engrossed in the discussion, failed to notice Tatsuno's ill-intentioned gaze.

At this moment, one of the men in the group noticed that Kogoro Mouri hadn't spoken yet, and asked curiously, "Excuse me, which work do you prefer?"

Upon hearing this, Kogoro Mouri was greatly surprised. Looking at the curious faces of everyone, he scratched the back of his head and finally came up with a title for a detective story.

"You guys are talking about me... I like... Murder on the Western Express, right?"

Upon hearing this name, everyone's expression changed instantly.

The man named Fujisawa Toshiaki looked at Kogoro Mouri with disdain and retorted, "You're probably talking about the Murder on the Orient Express, aren't you?"

The woman named Nanako Shimizu glanced disdainfully at Kogoro Mouri and added, "Besides, the novel you mentioned was written by Agatha Christie. It's not a Conan Doyle work at all, is it?"

The man who asked the question—Kawazu Ikuo—looked at Mouri Kogoro with disdain: "I didn't expect that an outsider would sneak into this tour group..."

"What a disappointment!" X3

Hearing everyone's unanimous words, Uncle Mori slowly lowered his head, leaned close to Tatsuno's ear, and whispered, "Are we really going to stay with these guys for three days?"

Hearing Uncle Mori's question, Tatsuno smiled but did not answer.

"Of course not~ I can fly back anytime!"

Longye thought to himself.

Seemingly having heard Kogoro Mouri's question, Ms. Hitomi Iwai, who was driving, replied, "Of course not. Actually, besides you few, my boss is currently driving another group of people to the inn."

"You'll be able to see it then."

Upon hearing this, Kogoro Mouri's face darkened even more: "Hey, hey, hey..."

Upon hearing this, Longye frowned slightly.

At this moment, Conan said with a grin, "What does it matter? The more people, the more fun!"

Before he could finish speaking, Uncle Mori punched Conan on the head with his iron fist: "What's so fun about that?!"

"Ouch, that hurts!!!!"

Seeing the large bump on Conan's head, Ryuno's lips curled into a small smile.

……

Soon after, the group arrived at their destination.

After glancing at the sign for "Maicherlowu Hotel," the group carried their luggage and entered the hotel.

A slightly overweight man dressed in a Sherlock Holmes suit and carrying a "Holmes-style pipe" appeared before the crowd.

Judging from his attire, anyone could tell he was a devoted fan of Sherlock Holmes.

Seeing everyone come in, he smiled and greeted them.

"Hello everyone! I am Hiroyuki Kanaya, the hotel owner who planned this trip for you all."

"Everyone here is a true Sherlock Holmes fan, whom I have rigorously selected!"

Upon hearing this, Fujisawa Toshiaki, who had been riding in the same car as Tatsuno and the others, suddenly spoke up: "Is it really a strict screening process? It seems like there's an amateur here who doesn't even know the name of Sherlock Holmes!"

Upon hearing his words, the crowd began to whisper among themselves.

"Huh? Are there really people like that?"

"Yes! Look behind you, that's the man with the mustache..."

"..."

Hearing the crowd's discussion, Uncle Mori turned around and said, "I think I should go back!"
