Detective Conan: The Ultimate Growth Space

“But, Sato-nii, we’re looking for treasure,” Ayumi said after thinking for a moment.

Zhiyong laughed loudly and said, "Are you playing a treasure hunt game? Come on, you can play after you eat. After you eat, I have a date with my girlfriend."

He did this so that the three prisoners would hear him and prevent them from taking action immediately.

Yuan Tai said loudly, "We're not playing a game, we..." He was about to continue when Ayumi and the others stopped him.

Mitsuhiko hurriedly asked, "Sato-nii, why aren't you having dinner with your girlfriend?"

Zhiyong pretended to be helpless and said, "There's nothing I can do. She's busy right now and can't come, but I'm starving."

Upon hearing about food, Genta immediately betrayed them, shouting, "Let's go eat eel rice! After we eat, let's go find the treasure. I'm starving now!"

Zhiyong patted Conan's head and said loudly, "You guys really have a lot of energy. Let's go, eat first, then you can go play."

Conan found Zhiyong's behavior strange.

At this moment, however, he had not yet noticed the bandit group following behind them.

Zhiyong did not go far.

He found a restaurant nearby.

Then, they ordered a whole table of dishes.

While waiting for the food.

Zhiyong said loudly to the four kids, "You guys sit down first, I'm going to make a call and ask how much longer my girlfriend will be able to come."

He went to the restaurant, borrowed a phone, and dialed Sato Miwako's number. Sato Miwako answered the phone.

Zhiyong said loudly, "Honey, when are you going to finish your work? I'm having dinner at XXXX. When are you coming over?"

"What? You're already done with your work and about to leave? Okay, I'll wait for you here. When you arrive, I'll greet you at the door. Come on, give me a kiss."

Zhiyong kissed the phone and then hung up.

Besides letting Sato Miwako know where he was, he also wanted the members of the bandit group to hear it, so they could feel at ease.

As the group was finishing their meal.

Zhiyong looked at Sato Miwako and walked to the door.

Miwako Sato was dressed very sexily; you wouldn't recognize her if you didn't know her well.

Zhiyong said to the four children, "You guys keep eating. I'll go pick up the big sister and introduce you to some pretty girls later."

Aside from Conan, Ayumi and the other two were all making a fuss.

Zhiyong reached the door and gave Meihezi a hug.

Because they didn't know if Miwako had brought anyone else with her, they wanted to avoid revealing their relationship.

Zhiyong didn't do anything excessive. Instead, he whispered in Miwako's ear, "Miwako-neechan, did you come alone, or did you come with colleagues?"

Miwako also whispered in Tomoyuki's ear, "Inspector Megure is leading the team, with the cooperation of other departments."

"How long will it take you to prepare?" Zhiyong released Miwako, took her hand, and whispered as they walked inside.

“We are ready, and everyone around us is in place,” Miwako said in a low voice.

“I’ve just confirmed it; they are indeed members of the Italian robbery gang,” Zhiyong explained.

"But why are they following a few children?" Sato Miwako asked curiously.

“I heard some children say they were looking for treasure, and I even saw a symbolic drawing in one of their hands. I suspect it might be a treasure map for the maple leaf gold coin,” Zhiyong replied.

"How is this possible?" Sato Miwako exclaimed in surprise.

“I don’t quite believe it either, but they’re following four kids? But if that’s the case, why don’t they just go up to them and snatch the map? You can only ask them yourselves after you catch them,” Zhiyong shrugged.

"Alright then, let's go in."

“After we went in, I told the children that we were going to see a movie later. I told them to bring the children out and have your people wait at the door. Once they came out, you could deal with them to avoid hurting any innocent people,” Zhiyong said in a low voice.

“Okay, I heard what you said about Inspector Megure. Let’s go in now,” Miwako said in a low voice.

Zhiyong put his arm around her, and Meihezi nestled in his arms. The two of them chatted and laughed as they entered the shop.

The police officers outside knew that Zhiyong was Miwako's younger brother.

But it still made them very envious and jealous.

Zhiyong led Miwako back to their seats.

Ayumi said, "Your sister is so pretty."

Genta and Mitsuhiko also praised Miwako.

Because Miwako was wearing makeup.

Conan looked at Miwako and felt like he had seen her before. Then he looked at her hands and a suspicion arose in his heart.

Seeing that they had almost finished eating, Zhiyong said to the children, "Are you all full? Brother is going to go see a movie with his sister. You can go play by yourselves in a little while."

Conan and the other three said in unison, "Okay. We're full too."

Zhiyong smiled and said, "Then let's go. You guys better not wander off and remember to go home early, okay?"

The four of them said in unison, "Okay."

After leaving the house.

Zhiyong and Miwako then parted ways with the children.

The children went to the right, and they went to the left.

Three members of the Italian robbery gang also came out and followed the four children.

However, they had only walked a few steps after leaving the restaurant when they were arrested by the police who were already prepared.

Zhiyong walked back and stood in front of Conan and the others, saying, "Alright, your treasure hunt is over. Leave the rest to the police. Give me that picture."

Conan asked curiously, "How did you know?"

Zhiyong said naturally, "I saw them following you, so I came to check it out."

Ayumi pouted and said, "Brother Sato, you stole our treasure map."

Zhiyong stepped forward and patted Bumei's head, saying, "Bumei, it wasn't your brother who took it. It was given to the police officers. You two have done a great service today and will definitely be rewarded by the police."

"That's really great."

"I am a superhero too."

"I am the superhero."

Looking at Genta and Mitsuhiko, these two goofballs.

Zhiyong was too lazy to pay them any attention.

At that moment, Inspector Megure walked over after everyone had arrested the three people.

Zhiyong handed the picture to Inspector Megure and then told him a fabricated version of what had happened.

Inspector Megure looked at the drawing on the paper and thought it looked like a child's doodle, and he couldn't believe it at all.

Zhiyong led Inspector Megure to the location where the gold coins were hidden, following the diagram drawn on the paper.

Inspector Megure and his team stayed behind to deal with the gold coins, while Miwako Sato took Chiyuki and the four children home.

Sato Miwako drove Ayumi and the others home one by one.

Zhiyong originally wanted to say a few words of advice to Conan, but after thinking about it, he decided against it.

Someone like Conan wouldn't listen to Zhiyong's advice, so why should he waste his time?

Conan, the son of Death, might be a jinx to others.

For the Mouri Detective Agency, he can be considered their lucky charm; he is the agency's benefactor.

Since Conan joined the agency, the agency's business has gradually increased.

In terms of solving cases.

With Conan joining the team, Kogoro Mouri's success rate in solving cases has increased significantly.

In the cases that Zhiyong was involved in, he never took credit for himself, but always attributed the success of the case to Kogoro Mouri.

And in cases where Zhiyong was not involved, Conan helped Kogoro Mouri solve them.

Now, Kogoro Mouri is also frequently appearing in the media, which has greatly boosted his fame.

Thanks to Conan's repeated help, Kogoro Mouri was finally knocked unconscious.

Therefore, in the detective world.

Kogoro Mouri also began his career, earning the nickname "Sleeping Kogoro".

……

Chapter 32 The best night festival in the world

Ran saw a TV program about Saitama Prefecture's Greatest Night Festival and kept pestering Kogoro Mouri to let her go see the festival.

After Conan arrived, Kogoro Mouri...

The detective agency's business has improved significantly, especially with Conan secretly helping Kogoro Mouri solve cases.

This greatly enhanced Kogoro Mouri's reputation.

Although I did make some money.

However, Kogoro Mouri also spends a lot of money; he drinks alcohol, gambles on horse races, plays mahjong, and plays pachinko.

If Xiaolan didn't always set aside a portion of the commission fees she received for living expenses...

Kogoro Mouri will then spend all the money he gets.

Therefore, Kogoro Mouri doesn't have much money these days, and in order to save money, he doesn't want to go on a trip.

However, as a doting father to my daughter...

At Ran's request, Kogoro Mouri had no choice but to reluctantly agree.

Zhiyong has been busy upgrading the space these days.
