She peeked over and asked curiously,
"Ah, isn't this something Guan Yu (Yun Chang) said in 'Romance of the Three Kingdoms'?"
Chen En: ?
Why do you locals like to pronounce your names and courtesy names together? Is it because many of your names have four or five characters, so you feel that your names are too short if you don't pronounce them together?
Although he inwardly complained about the pronunciation of ancient names, Chen En still answered affirmatively.
"That's right, it was indeed something Guan Yu said in 'Romance of the Three Kingdoms'."
"Miss Mori, are you familiar with 'Romance of the Three Kingdoms'?"
Chen En turned his head to look at Ran Mouri, and asked with some confusion,
Ran Mouri responded with a smile.
"Although the Records of the Three Kingdoms and Romance of the Three Kingdoms are not very popular, I have read them. I am quite familiar with the famous lines and some special parts, such as the Battle of Red Cliffs."
Red Cliff? Is it the Red Cliff Mansion arc in Nagano Prefecture, centered around Morofushi Takaaki?
In Chen En's mind, all his memories flipped through the pages of a book. After searching for relevant content, he realized that Ran Mouri was indeed familiar with the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, but it seemed that the only part that really mentioned this was the content of the Battle of Red Cliffs.
Speaking of which, Chen En and Suzuki Sonoko had agreed to go celestial observation together, and their destination was also Nagano Prefecture.
Perhaps we'll run into Morofushi Takaaki again in Nagano Prefecture, whose name sounds like "Zhuge Liang Kongming," but the chances are really slim...
"The Three Kingdoms?"
Sonoko Suzuki blinked, a hint of confusion in her eyes.
She wasn't very familiar with this aspect. Although she knew a little about the characters in the Three Kingdoms period because of the many Three Kingdoms games published by Koei Tecmo, she knew nothing about the specific lines of any particular character.
Sonoko Suzuki secretly resolved to go home and read some related books to broaden her knowledge.
They can't be like Ran and Kudo, with very few shared interests, can they?
"Ah, that's about it. I'm off!"
Before she knew it, she had already left the arcade. She said goodbye to Chen En and Xiao Lan, then reluctantly got into the car and headed towards the Suzuki Manor. The Suzuki Group bodyguard in the driver's seat even gave Chen En a hand signal.
Then he drove away.
This must be a bodyguard arranged by Jirokichi Suzuki. Otherwise, if it were a bodyguard arranged by Tomoko Suzuki, they would have memorized his features by now and put pressure on Sonoko later, so that they could fast-forward to the meeting of the parents.
However, in Chen En's eyes, meeting the parents was not a difficult thing to handle.
Suzuki Tomoko may be under a lot of pressure, but he is a person who is not under pressure at all. He doesn't feel pressure at all. The set of moves that Suzuki Tomoko usually uses can't even trigger the fear shock that Kyogoku Makoto, let alone trigger the fear shock on him.
If Tomoko Suzuki can really do that, then Seneca should hand over the position of leader of the Yellow Lantern Legion to Tomoko Suzuki.
"By the way, I've been meaning to ask this before, but I haven't had a chance to."
"Didn't Uncle Mori say before that the Chinese national team could beat Japan 3-0? What's going on? Although I don't know much about this, isn't the Chinese national team already in decline at this time?"
Chen En suddenly remembered something about the football match.
He had wanted to complain before about why the Chinese national football team was able to shut out the Japanese team 3-0 in the 1990s, but he was too busy investigating Black Mask at the time to ask. Now that he thinks about it, he wants to ask what happened.
In response, Ran Mouri touched her lips with her finger, deep in thought.
She doesn't really know much about football, and if it weren't for the fact that Chen En's name is a typical Chinese name, she might be wondering why the Japanese team would beat the Japanese team 3-0.
"Isn't this a very simple matter?"
"Because the national team next door is very strong, right?"
Upon hearing the word "soccer," Conan's inner code was triggered, instantly snapping him back to reality. He looked up at Chen En and said seriously,
"The midfielder over there, Xiao Junguang, is ridiculously strong. Our domestic news media call him the Dragon God."
"How could you say that football next door was in decline in the 1990s?"
Chen En: ?
Who? It sounds familiar, but he doesn't remember anyone being called the Dragon God.
It's probably a uniquely Japanese title, like "The Fierce Tiger of the Empire" or "The Destroying Dragon of the Empire." It's the kind of title that's used in front of someone, and even that person doesn't know who it refers to.
I'm too lazy to dwell on this issue.
Chen En and his two companions had already arrived downstairs at the Mouri Detective Agency. He immediately waved and said,
"Goodbye, Miss Mori, Conan."
Ran Mouri politely said goodbye to Chen En.
Under her gaze, Conan reluctantly remained polite.
When the two entered the internal staircase and prepared to go upstairs,
Conan suddenly turned his head and glanced at the apartment entrance.
However, Chen En had vanished without a trace.
His intuition told him that something was wrong.
However, he didn't know what was wrong.
Conan reached up and scratched his head, muttering to himself,
"Seriously, what's wrong with us?"
"Am I overlooking something?"
Chapter 349 The White Horse Scout's Narrow Escape
This was the most dangerous situation he had encountered since becoming a detective.
The comeback performance of Günter von Götheborg II, the world's greatest illusionist, was a highly targeted trap, aimed at him and eliminating any possibility of his identity being investigated.
White Horse emerged from the alley, looking somewhat disheveled.
He had been pursuing the illusionist since the beginning, seeking evidence that Günther von Gothenburg II was the illusionist killer and wanting to bring him to justice, but the illusionist killer had never taken him seriously.
It wasn't until this time, when the illusionist noticed that he had been chasing him all the way from Japan to Canada, that a trap was set and the killer was brought down.
Moreover, the person who made the move was not just the illusionist. Hakuba Saguru also encountered a strange phenomenon that could not be described by illusion, which shows that Günter von Gothenburg II was not the only one who wanted to kill him.
There is at least one second assassin accomplice with supernatural abilities who works alongside him.
"I almost died at their hands this time."
Hakuba Saguru leaned against the wall, feeling the long-lost sense of solid ground beneath his feet, and finally breathed a sigh of relief. He slowly slid down to sit on the ground, took out his pocket watch, glanced at the time, and then said...
"At 20:35:23 PM, I escaped from the illusionist's attack."
He looked up and glanced at the eagle named Watson in the sky.
The illusionist's illusions only work on humans; the other assassin wouldn't notice anything unusual about the birds in the sky. Therefore, Watson's presence in the air serves as a warning.
Watson would warn the assassins as soon as they approached Hakuba.
Hakuba Saguru didn't initially plan to bring Watson along.
He chose to bring Watson out because someone warned him. Hakuba Saguru didn't know who that person was, but if he had to guess, it wouldn't be a definitive answer.
Hakuba Saguru thinks it must be a magician or a witch.
There was no reason why; it was simply a detective's intuition.
He has already contacted other people to come and help.
If nothing unexpected happens, the rescuer should arrive soon.
The vehicle appeared in front of Hakuba Saguru in the blink of an eye.
The person in the driver's seat was a stern-looking old woman with purplish-gray curly hair, a hooked nose, wearing a suit jacket over a black turtleneck sweater, and thin-chained glasses. She turned to look at Hakuba Saguru and said...
"Young Master White Horse, get in the car quickly, I'll take you away from here!"
Hakuba Saguru nodded slightly and said...
"Oh, thank you so much, Granny Shikibu."
This old woman is Hakuba Saguru's housekeeper.
Her full name is Shikibu Shikazuko. She is one of Hakuba Saguru's most trusted people. Now that he is in mortal danger, Hakuba Saguru's first reaction is to ask Shikibu Shikazuko to come and help him. Apart from that, he does not trust anyone in Canada.
Shikibu Shikiko nodded and immediately led Hakuba Saguru away at high speed towards the outskirts of the city.
At this moment, Günther von Gothenburg II's expression was quite unpleasant.
The reason is simple: the assassination attempt against Hakuba Saguru failed. Not only did it fail, but it also exposed a huge flaw in his identity, revealing a real loophole that could be disproven!
The fact that Günter von Götheborg II was the illusionist assassin Spider of a mysterious organization...
It is estimated that the news will soon spread within major intelligence organizations. The speed at which it spreads is far beyond what Günter von Gothenburg II's identity can be salvaged through public relations efforts. This identity is truly unusable now!
Even the money in this identity's bank card must be withdrawn immediately through other channels, otherwise there is a high possibility that it will be frozen!
After all, people from all over the world have been keeping a close eye on this mysterious organization.
If he is confirmed to be Spider, the assassin from a mysterious organization, then there will be plenty of people to deal with him. Even Swiss banks might not be able to withstand such pressure for an assassin from a mysterious organization!
"Damn it, why? How did Hakuba Saguru know about our attack all along?"
"Could it be that our mysterious organization also has a mole like the Black Organization next door? That shouldn't be the case. There are only three people who know about this plan: me, that gentleman, and you."
"Obviously, I couldn't be the mole, and that gentleman certainly wasn't either, so that means..."
The spider raised its head and looked at the witch before it, dressed in traditional magician's attire, her exposed body mostly wrapped in bandages. This was the helper the spider had found for itself.
After being chased by that witch all the way in Tokyo.
He pondered how to return to Tokyo and take revenge on Batman, Phantom Thief Kid, and the witch. However, he realized that under normal circumstances, it was impossible for him to face three powerful opponents at the same time: Batman, Phantom Thief Kid, and the witch.
Therefore, the spider decided to fight witch with witch, and found another witch.
He then planned to rehearse his revenge plan and set his sights on Hakuba Saguru, the famous high school detective in the British Isles.
Moreover, this guy is persistently tracking his whereabouts, trying to bring him to justice.
