Conan: The Heart Thief

"Yes, yes... I agree! Don't keep me waiting, come in quickly!"

……

It was a new day. Lin Xiao had just finished his breakfast when his phone started to beep. He glanced at the screen and saw that it was a call from He Ye.

"He Ye, is there anything you want to talk to me about?" Lin Xiao thought puzzledly.

"Lin Xiao, I'm at Tokyo Airport now and I want your help with something." Ye's voice came from the other end of the phone, and his tone was obviously anxious.

"Okay, I'll come to you right away." Lin Xiao didn't ask what the matter was, he immediately agreed and went out.

After a while, Lin Xiao drove to Tokyo Airport. Among the busy crowd on the roadside, he saw the pure and beautiful Yuanshan Heye at a glance. Her outstanding appearance eclipsed the pedestrians around her.

He Ye looked obviously worried, so Lin Xiao walked over and took her into the car.

"He Ye, what do you want to talk to me about?" Lin Xiao asked with concern.

Yuanshan Heye replied worriedly: "Lin Xiao, actually I am here to look for Hattori Heiji."

"Huh? What happened to Hattori Heiji?" Lin Xiao turned his head and looked at Toyama Kazuha who was sitting in the passenger seat.

"My father asked me to accompany Heiji to Tokyo to find a Mr. Kusukawa, who was my father's former subordinate and now works at the Haido Detective Agency. But we lost contact later, so my father wanted me to accompany Heiji to come to you to find Mr. Kusukawa together." Kazuha explained.

Lin Xiao understood that Yuanshan Heye was a steady girl. If she looked so anxious, then Hattori Heiji might have really been in trouble. He comforted Heye: "Don't worry, I will help."

After He Ye heard this, a trace of gratitude flashed in his eyes: "I know you will definitely help me, Lin Xiao."

Lin Xiao nodded to show his understanding: "Not only for you, but also for Aunt Hattori." He knew very well that if something really happened to Hattori Heiji, Hattori Shizuka would be hit hard.

Afterwards, Lin Xiao drove to his destination, Youzhenzhuang, according to the address provided by He Ye.

Halfway through the journey, it suddenly started raining.

Lin Xiao parked the car in front of a supermarket near the destination, and then took out an umbrella from the trunk.

The two of them walked shoulder to shoulder, holding umbrellas and came to Youzhen Manor.

Standing in front of the mailbox, He Ye looked at the mailboxes above and said, "Mr. Kusukawa... Got it, his room number is 202."

"Room 202 is on the second floor. Let's go up."

Lin Xiao spoke, and the two walked up the stairs and stopped outside Room 202.

"I should be back before noon. If you have any registered mail, please deliver it to the landlord, Nanchuan."

There was a note stuck on the door, and the person who posted it was obviously Nanchuan.

Yuanshan Heye asked in confusion: "But noon has already passed, why is this piece of paper still posted here?"

Then, she speculated, "Maybe when Hattori came here, Mr. Kusukawa happened to be at home, so they went out together to have a cup of coffee or something."

"No, it's not what you guessed."

Lin Xiao pointed to a slightly wet mark next to the note and said, "This is the mark left by the hat that Hattori often wears. He must have waited at the door for a long time. Because Mr. Kusukawa didn't come back, he put on the hat backwards and leaned against the door waiting for Mr. Kusukawa to come back."

Yuanshan Heye looked at it carefully and nodded, "Yes, this is the pattern on Heiji's hat. He often wears his hat backwards. It must be like what Lin Xiao said."

"And there is one here too. Heiji must have impatiently sat on the ground waiting for Mr. Kusukawa to come back."

Lin Xiao pointed at a mark on the door, where a small transparent tape was stuck on the door frame.

He Ye squatted down and looked at it and said, "This is to put the tape on it as a mark, so that you will know if someone sneaks into your house."

Lin Xiao took a look and said, "Since Mr. Nanchuan used to work for your father He Ye, he naturally has this ability. Now that the tape has fallen off, it means that someone has sneaked into Mr. Nanchuan's house. And the tape must have fallen off a long time ago, and the sticky parts are all covered with dust. Maybe..."

This note was not posted today, but was posted here a few days ago.

Lin Xiao looked at the note on the door, and put his hand on the door handle and turned it. Unexpectedly, this turn easily opened the door, and the door was not locked at all.

He Ye looked at the state of the door and said hesitantly, "Lin Xiao, is it really appropriate for us to rush in like this?"

Lin Xiao answered decisively: "Finding the target is the top priority now, there is no need to hesitate too much." He stepped in first, and Yuanshan and Ye followed closely behind without any doubts.

Chapter 500: Toyama Kazuha shows affection with Lin Xiao in front of Hattori Heiji

"Look here." Lin Xiao's voice drew attention to the computer on the desk. He pointed at the desk and said attentively, "There seems to be traces of something being placed here, and marks of pencil rubbing on it."

Shan Heye looked in the direction he directed, and Lin Xiao tore a page of paper from a small notebook and placed it on the blank desk.

"It is exactly the type of paper I suspected. The size matches the marks on the tabletop perfectly."

"Using the principle of pen pressure, rubbing a pencil on paper can make the handwriting on the next piece of paper appear. This should be Hattori's handwriting. But Hattori has taken the paper away."

"I understand, let's try it!" He Ye urged anxiously.

Lin Xiao picked up the pencil and rubbed it gently on the paper. Sure enough, the handwriting gradually appeared: "Xianqiao Town, Ito." The handwriting was clearly visible. Lin Xiao picked up the paper and checked it carefully and said: "There are traces of the phone number, but the numbers are blurred. But in any case, we finally know that Hattori went to Ito's house in Xianqiao Town. We have to go to Xianqiao Town."

However, He Ye asked in confusion: "But how can we be sure which Ito family Hattori is looking for? There are many families with the surname Ito in Xianqiao Town." Lin Xiao shrugged, "We can't be sure of the answer to this question yet. We can only go to Xianqiao Town first, then go to the local police station to ask which families have the surname Ito, and then look for them one by one."

His words revealed his concern for Heiji's safety. The two left Kusukawa's residence, and after closing the door, Lin Xiao drove He Ye to Xianqiao Town.

After arriving at Xianqiao Town, Lin Xiao drove to the police station. With the help of the police station, they learned that there were more than 20 families with the surname Ito in Xianqiao Town. Lin Xiao and He Ye had to ask each family one by one.

They knocked on each door and asked. Lin Xiao was a little tired after only asking five families. All five families said they had never received high school students from Kansai. When they were about to go to the sixth house, there was a knock on the door.

"Ding Dong! Ding Dong!" A gentle female voice came from the other side of the door: "Yes, I'm here!" After a while, a fat woman holding a cat opened the door. Yuanshan Heye asked politely: "I'm sorry to bother you. Has a high school student from Kansai visited your house? He is about the same age as the person next to me, and his skin is a bit dark."

Although the fat woman was plump, her voice was very soft and not rough. Lin Xiao noticed the lawyer badge on her chest and asked, "Is this a lawyer badge? If I'm not mistaken, you should be Ms. Ito Misari, right?"

He Ye was startled when she heard the name. Could this fat woman be the famous lawyer Ito Misari? She nodded and admitted her identity.

Toyama Kazuha immediately asked, "Ms. Ito, do you know if there are any other suspicious Ito families nearby?" A glimmer of hope flashed in Lin Xiaohe Kazuha's eyes.

After a moment's silence, Ito Misari said, "I heard that there is a building with a sign bearing Ito's name on it behind the elementary school campus in Go-chome. Every night, two men who look like homeless people and a child go in and out of that building."

Upon hearing the news, He Ye grabbed Lin Xiao's arm tightly and was frightened by Ito Misari's words.

Lin Xiao curled the corner of his mouth, he had already found Hattori Heiji.

"Ms. Ito, the two men and children you mentioned who looked like homeless people are probably upstairs."

"Don't be ridiculous."

Ito Misari's smile was very forced.

"Then let me go upstairs and take a look."

Having said that, Lin Xiao walked upstairs on his own.

"Stop!"

However, Lin Xiao clearly had no intention of stopping.

"If you don't stop, I'll shoot."

Lin Xiao felt someone pointing a gun at him from behind.

Yuanshan Heye was also shocked. They didn't expect that the fat woman would pull out a gun with a look of displeasure on her face.

"You are not allowed to move either. If you don't let me, I will shoot your boyfriend."

The fat woman did not forget to warn Yuanshan and Ye.

However, just as Ito Misari warned the girl, the boy in front of her disappeared.

"what!"

With a bang, Ito Misa was hit on the back of the neck and was hit by Lin Xiao.

Lin Xiao picked up the gun and said to Yuanshan Heye seriously: "Quick, hide behind me!"

"what?"

Although Yuanshan Heye didn't understand what was going on, he immediately did as he was told.

Then I heard footsteps coming downstairs.

The scene changed, and Ito Misari's two companions were pointing guns at Lin Xiao.

"Bang bang..."

Lin Xiao fired faster than the gangsters. As blood flowers bloomed, the wrists of the two gangsters holding the guns were pierced by bullets. Needless to say, the hands of the two gangsters were crippled. If the bleeding was not stopped in time, there was a possibility of excessive blood loss and even death.

"Ugh..."

The gunman who was shot fell to the ground, screaming in pain.

After Lin Xiao subdued the three gangsters, he tied them up together before he felt relieved and called the police.

"It's done, we can go find Heiji."

"Ok!"

Yuanshan Heye was just calming down. She felt that Lin Xiao's attack was fierce, cruel and handsome, much stronger than Hattori Heiji. Hattori Heiji could not compare with Lin Xiao in all aspects. Although Lin Xiao already had many female companions, she didn't mind becoming one of Lin Xiao's many female companions.

Women all admire strong men. Since ancient times, emperors have been able to have many women. As a time traveler, Lin Xiao is incomparable to any emperor. Therefore, it is natural that Lin Xiao should have many women!

Lin Xiao and He Ye went upstairs together and found Hattori Heiji. They untied the rope that bound Hattori Heiji, and at this time, Kusukawa, who was pretending to be dead on the ground, sat up. Kusukawa was not dead, but he was injured, and he was seriously injured.

The rescued Hattori Heiji was very depressed. After he found this place from Kusunokawa's residence, he was subdued without any preparation and pointed a gun at him. He had no chance to resist at all.

"Lin Xiao, He Ye... why are you here?"

He Ye said: "Of course I came to find you. You don't know how worried your mother is about you. Fortunately, Lin Xiao helped, otherwise you would be in trouble."

Heiji said stubbornly: "Wa Ye, even without your help, I can find a way to get out of this predicament."

He Ye said disdainfully: "If your mother wasn't anxious, I wouldn't bother with you!"

As he spoke, He Ye deliberately leaned closer to Lin Xiao, showing intimacy.

Heiji was stunned for a moment, not understanding what Kazuha meant.

Lin Xiao tried to smooth things over and said, "Okay, Heiji, you should also report to your mother that you are safe and don't let her worry."

"Oh. I know." Hattori Heiji's face turned red. He felt very embarrassed. He was completely outshined by Lin Xiao.

Chapter 501: I can play with Aunt Jinghua again

Not long after, Inspector Megure came with his men to clean up the mess. He looked at the girl in Lin Xiao's arms and thought it was Xiaolan, but he didn't expect it to be Hattori Heiji's childhood sweetheart. He was so shocked that his jaw dropped.

"Lin Xiao is really capable. He even snatched away the childhood sweetheart of the young master of the Hattori family!"

Inspector Megure was so envious, this is life.
