Detective Conan: The Ultimate Growth Space

It's just that the plan can't keep up with the changes.

Saturday morning.

Before Zhiyong could tell the two women about his trip, he received a phone call.

The call was from Heiji Hattori.

"What? You're already at Tokyo Station?"

"Yes, Kazuha and I want to visit Tokyo. This is your territory, so of course we have to ask you to take us around."

"this……."

"What's wrong? Is something bothering you again? A few days ago, Uncle Mori and the others went to Osaka and asked you to come along, but you didn't have time. Now I'm coming to Tokyo to visit you, and you still don't have time, do you?" Hattori Heiji said on the phone.

"No, I just happen to be free. Who's here?"

"Me, Kazuha, Uncle Mori, Ran, and Conan."

"You even invited Uncle Mori, Ran, and Conan. Do you still need me to show you around?"

"It's more lively with more people, and besides, it's easier for us to get around since you have a car."

"Okay, wait a moment, I'll be there soon."

"Then I'll be waiting for you." Hattori Heiji paused for a moment, then added, "By the way, why don't you go pick up Uncle Mori and the others first?"

"I see."

Fortunately, I haven't told the two girls about my travel plans yet.

Otherwise, it would be really difficult to agree to Hattori Heiji's request.

However, Zhiyong also greatly admired Hattori Heiji.

Heiji Hattori knew perfectly well that Conan was the real scourge, the spokesperson for death.

If it's for going out to play.

Whenever Conan is around, something is bound to happen, but he still bravely takes Conan along to play.

Since the Grim Reapers have gathered here these past few days, something is bound to happen.

Then Zhiyong should naturally participate as well.

Zhiyong got in the car and went to the office to pick up Uncle Maoli and the other two.

Then, they went together to pick up Hattori Heiji and Toyama Kazuha.

Shibuya is the biggest source of all kinds of fashion and trends in Tokyo, a shopping paradise, and a mecca for young women's fashion.

Here, in addition to clothing stores of various styles, there are also subculture venues for teenagers.

A group of people stood at a busy crossroads.

"Is there some kind of celebration today?" Kazuha Toyama asked, looking at the crowd of people coming and going.

"No, there are always a lot of people shopping here, especially on weekends," Zhiyong replied.

Hattori Heiji exclaimed, "There are so many people here, it's almost unbelievable."

"Yes, just like when we hold celebrations back home."

“Shibuya is a shopping paradise, and now that it’s the season for big discounts, even more people are coming here to shop,” Ran replied.

"I just wanted to buy some clothes this time," said Kazuha Toyama.

"If you want to buy clothes, then I'll take you to my usual store," Xiaolan replied with a smile.

Kazuha took out a notebook, opened it, and said, "No need, I've already planned to go to that store."

Zhiyong asked, "Hattori, did you two come to Tokyo for something else, or are you just here to go shopping?"

"Tomorrow is the wedding of one of my mom's classmates' sons. I'm attending the wedding in her place. My mom was originally going to come by herself, but a couple of days ago, she accidentally hit her foot on a metal plate while making takoyaki, and her toes were broken, so she can't attend."

"That really hurt so much!" Xiaolan exclaimed in surprise.

"Is your aunt alright?" Zhiyong asked.

"It's nothing, it's just that walking has been a bit of a challenge these past few days."

The group chatted for a while and then started strolling around.

Now is the peak season for big discounts.

Therefore, they all joined the shopping frenzy.

It wouldn't be appropriate for Zhiyong and the others to go with He Ye to buy clothes.

Two girls together, and one boy together, so the group split into two groups and started shopping.

When they met up at noon, everyone had brought a lot of bags and packages.

After lunch.

The group then went to Meiji Shrine to pay their respects.

Meiji Shrine, built to enshrine Emperor Meiji and Empress Shōken, is one of the five most important shrines in Tokyo.

In island nations, various important ceremonies in life, such as newborn naming ceremonies, coming-of-age ceremonies, graduation ceremonies, and weddings, are all held at Meiji Shrine.

Meiji Shrine is touted as one of the top ten tourist attractions in the island nation.

This only applies to people who are not from island nations.

If you don't arrive on the day of the celebration, there's not much to do here.

"Isn't that Heiji?"

While everyone was enjoying themselves at the shrine, Hattori Heiji ran into an acquaintance.

"It's Uncle Shigematsu."

"I never expected to run into you here. I thought you had already gone home."

The visitor was a middle-aged man.

There was a young girl next to him.

"Heiji, who is this uncle?" Kazuha asked, puzzled.

"This is our family's butler, Uncle Shigematsu, who will be attending the wedding."

After Hattori Heiji finished his introduction, he said, "Uncle Shigematsu, what brings you here? Don't you need to prepare for tomorrow's wedding?"

"The wedding arrangements have all been completed." With that, Butler Shigematsu pointed to the girl beside him and said, "I'm here with Miss Kokaze today. She's the bride who will marry Mr. Kikuto tomorrow. Miss Kokaze wants to tour Tokyo."

"Hello, my name is Katagiri Kaede," the girl opposite said.

"Hello," Hattori Heiji returned the greeting.

Hattori Heiji then asked in confusion, "Since we're here for a tour, why isn't your young master coming along to be our guide?"

"I did look for our young master..."

Butler Shigematsu hadn't finished speaking yet.

Katagiri Kaede explained, "It's my fault, I wanted to visit Tokyo Tower."

"Young Master Kikuto has a fear of heights, so there's nothing we can do about it."

"I see."

Butler Shigematsu looked at the people around Heiji Hattori and asked, "Are these all Heiji's friends?"

"Yes, I'm traveling in Tokyo with some friends today. Let me introduce you. This is the famous detective Kogoro Mouri..."

Then Hattori Heiji introduced the group.

"I never expected to meet Mr. Mori here. Our master greatly admires Mr. Mori. Since we live not far from home, please come in and have a chat with Mr. Mori."

"This isn't really appropriate. The wedding is tomorrow, and you must be very busy. Wouldn't it be a bother if we went?"

"No, no, I won't bother you."

Kogoro Mouri did not refuse Mr. Shigematsu's invitation.

Even though he's a famous detective now, he still needs a wide network of connections.

That's how a firm can thrive.

Zhiyong watched from the sidelines with great admiration.

This Mr. Shigematsu is really bold.

They actually dared to invite Kogoro Mouri to their house.

If they had only invited Kogoro Mouri, that would have been fine.

Now, Kogoro Mouri, Conan, and Heiji Hattori, all three of whom possess death-related attributes, have come to the house together.

Of course, Zhiyong wouldn't remind him of this.

Zhiyong believed that the three of them must be incredibly powerful, and it seemed there would be a good show to watch today.

……

Chapter 208 Visiting the Morizono Family

This was something that Zhiyong found very strange.

While shopping in the morning, Kazuha seemed to have some dissatisfaction, or rather, some hostility, towards you, Xiaolan.

But they met up after shopping.

The two chatted and laughed, just like best friends.

When Zhiyong noticed that Xiaolan's T-shirt had been replaced with a new one, he understood the initial hostility between him and Ye.

On the way here.

Heiji Hattori and Ran are wearing the same style of T-shirt.

If they take off their outer clothes, the two of them walking together will look like they're wearing matching outfits.

Xiaolan must have known what was going on, so she changed her T-shirt.
