Conan: Starting out by living with a divorced older sister

"You're right. Today is the book signing event for Minoru Nishina. I've read his works before and I think they're pretty good. I learned a lot from them. So I asked Sonoko to go with me. It's at the mall in Ginza. If you don't want to go to Mr. Tsuji's place and your father isn't home, then I'll take you with me."

"Okay, okay, Sister Xiaolan, I'll go with you."

Inside Ginza shopping mall

"what!"

"Yuanzi, what are you doing? You're so startled!"

"Xiao Lan! Did you go for cosmetic surgery? Tell me where, I want one too. I want one too. How did you achieve such pure and natural beauty?"

"I didn't, I just... I just... I took a pill given by Zhen!"

"Guess whether I believe it or not..." Sonoko looked at Xiaolan as if she didn't believe it at all.

"Believe it or not!" Xiaolan was too lazy to explain because she really didn't know. Murong Zhen did give her a pill, but other things happened between them, so she didn't know why. But it was also a fact that she became more beautiful overnight.

"Yuanzi, let's go, I see there are quite a lot of people queuing up."

Just as Xiaolan said, there was already a long queue at the autograph booth, and the three of them could only wait in line at the back.

Just as Officer Sato and Officer Shiratori were still chatting, Officer Sato's phone rang.

"Hello, Officer Megure, I haven't heard anything yet. What? Plane crash, the victim is Hiroki Tsuji, we'll rush over immediately, I'll notify Mr. Mori."

"Officer Sato, what do you think of this kid Conan?" asked Officer Shiratori.

"Well, if he didn't look like a child, he would feel more like an adult. He has a sharp mind and a thoughtful thinking. Officer Shiratori, what do you think of him now?"

"Yeah, he was the first one to deduce the order of the murders using playing cards, so I thought I'd take him to the crime scene to see if he could find anything special."

"That's fine. Mr. Maori is here too, so you can call him."

After observing the crime scenes many times, Conan's abilities have been deeply rooted in the hearts of the police officers in the Metropolitan Police Department, but everyone tacitly did not raise any questions. After all, everyone has their own secrets, even children!

Ginza Shopping Center

At this time, Nishina Minoru, who had medium-length hair, a suit, and a gentle appearance, had signed many books. Although most of them were young and beautiful girls, they looked the same to him. It was a bit boring for him to watch. Just when he wanted to see how many people were behind him, he inadvertently saw a charming figure in the team not far away.

Although the person next to him also had good skin, good looks, and especially good temperament, he looked a little pale in comparison. His brain was spinning rapidly, as if he had thought of something happy, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a meaningful smile. If Murong Zhen was there, he would definitely see through his thoughts, because only men can understand men best.

"Sister Xiaolan, there is another case at my uncle's place. I'll go over and help."

"Okay, Conan, be careful then!"

"Yeah, Sister Xiaolan!" After saying that, Conan turned around and was about to leave.

"Hey! You little brat! Is your sister Xiaolan the only one in your eyes?!"

"Goodbye, Sister Yuanzi~", she said sweetly, but in her heart she was saying:

"Gossip~"

Chapter 356 The Next Target

In Towako's apartment

As soon as Murong Zhen entered the door, Okano Towako, who was wearing a home nightgown, came to greet him.

"Ah Zhen, you're finally here~ Just now, Mr. Mao Li brought the police over and said that I might be targeted by the murderer. I was so scared that I was scared to death~"

Towako leaned very close, her breath was as fragrant as orchid, and there was even a hint of red wine in her warm breath. Upon closer inspection, Towako's face also had a hint of drunken blush.

Especially the hair that was tied up, it was visibly still damp, obviously it had just been washed and had not had time to be blown dry thoroughly.

From all the signs, Murong Zhen knew that it would be difficult for him to escape from this apartment today, and he had to leave something behind!

Murong Zhen also learned a lot about Shihezi through the previous chat. She was not stained by mud, which not only showed her character, but also demonstrated her strength and ability. She was a very charming woman. While Murong Zhen was attracting her, he was also attracted by her.

Since Towako, as a woman, has taken 99 steps forward, the remaining step must be taken by Murong Zhen, otherwise her self-esteem would be hurt.

"Sister, are you afraid of that illusory murderer, or are you afraid of me, the wolf who was led into the room?" Murong Zhen asked, gently holding Shihezi's slender waist.

Shihezi's body stiffened, but soon softened. It was indeed difficult to fool a man who was too smart. Knowing that her intentions had been discovered, Shihezi was too shy to raise her head, and she gently leaned into Murong Zhen's arms.

She just felt spacious and warm, strong and safe, especially the strong heartbeat, which made her heart pound like a deer.

"I'm not as young as Nana, so I still have time to get to know you slowly. Generally, women of my age may have children in college, but I'm still single.

It’s not that I don’t want to find one, but after seeing too many different kinds of people and strange things, I have become more and more demanding in my other half. Based on the principle of “better to be alone than to be with the wrong person”, I thought I was destined to be lonely in this life, until you appeared like a god from the sky!

Since then, you have entered my heart. Later, when I had tea and chatted with you and got to know you better, I found that you seemed to be almost flawless except for being a little fickle. I was curious about why you were so fickle and still had so many confidantes willing to follow you, so I wanted to find the answer myself.

So, Azhen, are you willing to let me find the answer? "

Faced with Towako's confession-like words, everything Murong Zhen said seemed pale and powerless. He simply lowered his head and kissed her red lips.

With this kiss, each other's feelings gradually became clear in each other's hearts.

"Ah Zhen, the window... the curtains are not drawn..."

. . .

. . .

. . .

With a "swish" sound, the little black man who was watching from the opposite building uttered a curse:

"Damn! It was so exciting, but they actually drew the curtains. I don't know where Murong Zhen got so much luck in love..."

"Ah~", after sighing, I saw the red car downstairs leaving, and my lost mood became cheerful:

"Humph! It seems that the plan over there should have been successful. Hiroki Tsuji, you should blame yourself if you want to!"

The little black man looked at the closed curtains a few more times and thought to himself: Murong Zhen, you are also in my plan, just wait and see. Then he left cursing.

A beach

At this time, a helicopter had smashed a large kang on the beach here, and the fire caused by the explosion on the plane had just been extinguished.

Through search and rescue, the two women who were on the plane at the time were found and rescued in the sea. If Conan was there, he would definitely recognize that these were the two women that Hiroki Tsuji hugged on both sides when he met them at the "Flower" Western restaurant.

Through inquiries, it was learned that when the plane rose to a certain height, the pilot Hiroki Tsuji suddenly felt severe pain in his eyes and could not open his eyes, and eventually fell towards the beach. Before the crash, the two women jumped into the sea and survived.

However, the pilot, Hiroki Tsuji, died on the spot due to the strong impact.

As for why he suddenly felt severe eye pain, one of the women said that he had put in eye drops before flying the plane.

So, the police found eye drops in the deceased's pocket, which might be the cause of the accident, and sent it for testing.

After a while, Officer Sato and Officer Shiratori arrived with Kogoro Mouri and Conan.

"Inspector Megure, have you found any clues related to the Ten of Spades at the scene?"

“No~”

"That's strange. Isn't he the target of Spade 10?"

So, with doubts, the police officers came to the place where the plane took off, because Hiroki Tsuji's car was parked here before the accident.

Finally, a playing card with the 10 of spades was found in an inconspicuous place on the car, and it was confirmed that Hiroki Tsuji was the number 10 in this serial murder case.

In order to find out more clues, we went to the deceased's home. At the same time, the test results came out, confirming that the bottle contained not eye drops for relieving fatigue, but mydriatic medicine. After applying this kind of eye drops, you cannot be exposed to strong light, otherwise there will be a burning sensation.

While feeling heartbroken, Hiroki Tsuji's family also cooperated with the police and told them everything that happened that morning in detail.

I heard that Hiroki Tsuji had started the car and was about to go out when the window glass of his house suddenly broke. He rushed back and later thought it was a prank by children and let it go.

After hearing this strange phenomenon, everyone discovered the key to the problem, especially when they found out that Hiroki Tsuji had placed the eye drops in the car.

After asking several neighbors nearby, they learned that a black off-road motorcycle had appeared here, and finally confirmed the whole incident.

Just as Maori Kogoro was trying to think about the next victim, Spade 9, Conan said:

"Uncle Maori, I found an invitation in the mailbox downstairs today. It invites you to attend a tour of a marine-themed restaurant called Crystal Crystal in a few days."

"Little ghost, why are you saying this at this time? Can't you see that we are thinking about something?"

"But the name of the person who invited me is Asahi Shengyi."

"Xu Shengyi!"

Chapter 357 Signing scene

Everyone was surprised because there was a "jiu" in the character "旭" (Asahi) in Katsuyoshi's name, and he just happened to have sent an invitation letter to Kogoro Mori.

It was almost certain that Xu Shengyi would be the next victim.

So he called him and explained what had happened recently. Xu Shengyi on the other end of the phone was probably working out, and only his tired and breathless voice could be heard.

After learning what happened, Asahi Katsuyoshi only said that he knew and refused the visit of Kogoro Mori and the police. It seems that he is busy with something now!

The police were helpless. After all, the victim himself didn't care about his own life or death, and he was not a criminal, so they couldn't do anything to him. They could only settle for the next best thing and ask if they could arrange for police to go there that day.

Xu Shengyi's breathing became more and more rapid. He agreed impatiently and hung up the phone in a hurry.

After hanging up the phone, Xu Shengyi quickly stopped his fitness exercise and cursed: "This Zemu Gongping is such an idiot. He can't even handle such a small matter as inviting a few well-known people over. He even asked someone to call me. Otherwise, I can at least exercise for another half an hour!"

After a short break, he picked up the phone again.

"Hey, Miss Nana, there were many misunderstandings about what happened before. I sent you the invitation letter, right? Please be sure to come. I apologize to you in public. I did drink too much that day. If Mr. Murong is willing to condescend, he is welcome to come. I don't know Mr. Murong's current attitude, so I dare not send out an invitation rashly."

"Who are they? I asked my people to invite several famous people for me. I didn't pay much attention to who they were. I only know that in addition to the famous detective Mr. Maori, there is also a famous photojournalist, a famous entertainment show host, a famous food novel writer, and I think there is also a college student detective who is called something from Kanto. I forgot."

"Okay, okay, please be sure to ask Mr. Murong. Xu welcomes his presence at Shuijingjing!"

======I am the scene dividing line======

"Ring, ring, ring!" Murong Zhen's cell phone suddenly rang while he was enjoying his leisure time.

"Sister Towako, go ahead and do your work. Don't worry about me! Don't let me bother you!"

Towako glanced at him and ignored him.

"Nana, why did you think of me just now? The ocean-themed restaurant is open for trial operation. It's opened by Asahi Shengyi, the fat guy who bullied you that day, right? Si~"

"Oh, it's okay, Towako-sister just pinched me."

"Yes, we are together now. I am at her house! You want to talk to her, but she is not in a position to talk right now! I will ask her."

"Towako-sister, Nana wants to talk to you, look~"
