Science: The Little Shota of the Maori Family

For both of them, even the first-grade questions, no matter how difficult they were, were just 1+1=2.

……

After school in the evening, Toru Watanabe followed Haihara to Dr. Agasa's house.

Not seeing the doctor, Watanabe Toru asked curiously, "Is the doctor not at home?"

Huiyuan put down her schoolbag and said, "He's going to attend a lecture and won't be back until the evening. Come with me."

"it is good."

Watanabe Toru nodded and followed Huihara to the basement.

There are some instruments and equipment in the basement for Huiyuan's research.

She put on a well-fitting white coat and explained to Watanabe Toru's astonished gaze, "I'm used to it. When I don't wear a white coat when I work, I always feel like something is missing."

What's wrong with this?

Watanabe Toru muttered to himself, watching Huiyuan take out the syringe and test tube, and glanced at himself: "Let's draw blood first."

Watanabe Toru nodded and stepped forward.

I watched Huibara skillfully tie a tourniquet on her arm, find the blood vessel, disinfect it, and then insert the needle.

After drawing five test tubes in a row, Watanabe Toru finally couldn't help but ask: "Hey, hey, hey, do you want to draw so much blood?"

Huiyuan said calmly: "What do you know? Many projects require your blood, and this is still considered a small amount."

Toru Watanabe suspects that Haibara is framing him, but he has no evidence.

After drawing the blood, Huiyuan kept Watanabe Toru's blood, then took a notebook, looked at Watanabe Toru and said, "I have a few questions I want to know, and I hope you can answer me truthfully."

Watanabe Toru nodded slightly: "Ask."

"When did this phenomenon occur to you?"

"This morning."

"Do you feel anything unusual? For example, is there any pain?"

"No."

"Have you eaten or drunk anything unusual recently?"

"No."

"Well...besides what I said above, do you have anything else to add?"

Watanabe Toru thought for a moment and said, "I feel like I'm about to regain my glory."

"Hmm?" Haibara was slightly stunned and did not understand the meaning of Watanabe Toru's words.

It wasn't until Watanabe Toru straightened his back that she suddenly understood. Her pretty face flushed, her eyes widened, and she gritted her teeth and said, "Shameless, vulgar, shameless..."

Watanabe Toru had an innocent expression on his face: "Didn't you ask me to answer truthfully?"

Huiyuan took a deep breath, trying hard to suppress the urge to hit him, and continued to ask: "Anything else?"

"Gone."

Huiyuan nodded: "You can go now."

"Huh? Aren't you going to invite me to dinner? I did help you." Watanabe Toru said.

Huiyuan said expressionlessly: "I want to emphasize that this is not to help me, but to help us."

"Okay, okay." Watanabe Toru was too lazy to argue with her: "Then I just want to eat for free, okay?"

Huiyuan said coldly: "Get lost."

After sending Watanabe Toru out the door and watching his departing figure, Huiyuan snorted softly, "You still want to eat for free? It's already a bargain for you to only draw five tubes of blood."

…knowledge…

Toru Watanabe returned to the Mori Detective Agency. Kogoro Mori had already returned from (Zhao Li's) hospital and was sitting on the sofa reading a newspaper.

"Uncle." Watanabe Toru greeted him.

Maori Kogoro looked up: "You're back, Toru."

"Yeah." Watanabe Toru put down his schoolbag and asked about Maori Kogoro's condition: "Uncle, is your leg okay?"

"Yeah, I've recovered." Maori Kogoro said with a relaxed look, "I've been staying in the hospital for so many days, I'm almost suffocating."

It's incredible that you can grow bones in such a short time.

Watanabe Toru complained in his heart, then said with a smile: "Sister Xiaolan said this morning that she would make a lot of delicious food tonight to celebrate Uncle's successful discharge from the hospital."

"Really?" Maori Kogoro's eyes sparkled with excitement. "Then I must drink to my heart's content tonight."

Watanabe Toru smiled and said, "Well... Sister Xiaolan probably won't agree to this."

198. Angry Xiaolan

"Jingle Bell"

The school bell rings.

In Class B, Grade 1 of Teitan Elementary School, the teacher at the podium closed the textbook and handouts and said, "get out of class is dismissed." The students below stood up in unison and said, "Goodbye, teacher."

As soon as the teacher walked out of the classroom, the whole place exploded with a loud noise.

"I can finally go home." Yuanda stretched lazily, completely changing his listless appearance in class.

"It seems to be raining outside." Ayumi looked out the window and exclaimed, "Ah!" "Although the weather forecast said it would rain this morning, I didn't expect it to rain so hard... Is this a heavy downpour?"

Mitsuhiko smiled and said, "It's okay, we have an umbrella anyway..."

"Yeah, thank goodness I listened to my mother."

As they talked, they packed their bags and walked out of the classroom.

Watanabe Toru and Haibara were one step behind.

"Haibara, what are the results of my examination?" asked Toru Watanabe.

Huiyuan said calmly: "It's a terminal illness, there's no cure."

Watanabe Toru glared at her and said, "Speak properly."

Huiyuan frowned. "Your cells are much more active than those of your peers. Usually, this situation only occurs..."

She talked a lot in a flash, and Watanabe Toru didn't understand a single word of the professional terms in the rest of the sentence except the first one.

Huiyuan also noticed this and said simply: "In short, the quality of your current body is not compatible with the activity of your cells. I still guess that this should be a series of reactions after you took the aptx-4869 antidote. Is this reaction long-term or short-term, good or bad? I need further experiments. Before reaching a conclusion, you should try to use less antidote..."

Watanabe Toru shrugged: "I understand."

……

When he returned to the office, Toru Watanabe was surprised to find that the dark-skinned Hattori Heiji was also there.

"Here's what's going on. Everyone will participate in a reasoning competition at the hotel, and the winner will get the first edition of Sherlock Holmes' "A Study in Scarlet", which is a book worth collecting." He said to Kogoro Mouri.

Maori Kogoro narrowed his eyes and asked, "That should be worth a lot of money, right?"

"of course."

"But, you signed us up without our permission. That's too presumptuous of you." Kogoro Mori looked dissatisfied.

Hattori Heiji scratched his head: "Because I think you will definitely be interested..."

"Huh?" Kogoro Mouri stared.

What do you mean we're definitely interested? Are you the worm in our stomach?

Hattori Heiji explained: "Because that guy Kudo will definitely go."

"Shinichi?"

Hearing this name, Xiaolan's eyes suddenly lit up and asked, "Hattori, has Shinichi contacted you?"

"Not really." Hattori Heiji shook his head. "But isn't Kudo a fan of Sherlock Holmes? If he knew about this kind of event, he would definitely come and participate."

Ran was somewhat tempted. As Kudo Shinichi's childhood sweetheart and one of the people who knew him best, she knew that Kudo Shinichi's greatest idol was Sherlock Holmes. As Hattori Heiji had said, if Shinichi knew about such an event, he would definitely come to participate. Then, the two of them would have a chance to meet.

Thinking of this, Xiaolan looked at Maori Kogoro and said, "Hey, Dad, tomorrow is a holiday, let's go together."

Maori Kogoro glanced at his daughter, knowing her little thoughts, and snorted, "Don't think I don't know. You want to meet that kid Kudo Shinichi, right?"

Xiaolan pursed her lips and said, "Because there are some things I think it's better to ask in person."

Seeing that everyone agreed to participate in this event, Hattori Heiji smiled and said, "In that case, I will stay here tonight."

"Hey, hey, hey, don't be so presumptuous. Can you be a little polite?" Kogoro Mouri glared at him in dissatisfaction.

……

The next day.

When Watanabe Toru and his group arrived at the hotel, the sky was dark and it was raining heavily, just like in Tokyo.

Everyone had some snacks and then gathered in the hall to wait for the organizers to arrive.

"Everyone has been waiting for a long time!"

A fat middle-aged man walked down the stairs. He was wearing a retro British detective suit and holding a pipe in his hand. At first glance, he looked a bit like Inspector Megure.

Kanaya Hiroyuki said with a smile: "Welcome everyone to join this trip. I am the planner of this event and the owner of this hotel, Kanaya Hiroyuki..."

After a brief opening speech, he got down to business.

"The reasoning competition will begin tomorrow night, and the winner will receive a rare first edition copy of 'A Study in Scarlet.' But before that, I want you to prove how much you admire Sherlock Holmes..."

prove?

The contestants' expressions were all stunned.

Kanaya Hiroyuki instructed his female assistant to hand out a set of test books to everyone. "I'm handing out the 1,000-question Sherlock Holmes quiz now, and the test will run until tomorrow evening. Only those with a total score of 990 or higher will be eligible to participate in the deduction quiz after dinner. Also, for the sake of caution, please immediately hand over your cell phones and relevant reference books to my assistant. Of course, if you don't hand them in, it's fine. This hotel is equipped with surveillance cameras and bugs. If anyone cheats, I'll ask them to leave immediately."

"Now, here are your room keys. Please come and collect them."

The room was a standard room. When it came to the question of who would stay with whom, Xiaolan said logically, "Then you and Xiaotetsu will stay in one room, and Dad and Hattori will stay in another."

"it is good."

Several people had no objections.

That night, Xiaolan finished washing up early and lay down on the bed by the window, her eyes a little dull.

Watanabe Toru knew what Xiaolan was thinking. He climbed onto her bed, hugged her soft waist, and said to her, "Sister Xiaolan, are you feeling a little regretful because you didn't see the person you wanted to see?"

Xiaolan sighed softly and did not hide it: "Yes, I thought I would see Shinichi when I came here this time. After all, he likes Sherlock Holmes the most. I didn't expect..."

Watanabe Toru asked: "If you meet him, what would Xiaolan want to say to him?"

"I want to ask him why he doesn't reply to my text messages? Why doesn't he call me? Why doesn't he even have time to come home? Why does he keep breaking his promises and letting me down?"

Xiaolan became more and more angry as she spoke, and her eyes seemed to be blazing with fire.

199. The surveillance is fake

The schedule for the Sherlock Holmes tour group remained unchanged from the original schedule.

By the end of dinner the next day, most of the people who had registered had completed the relevant Sherlock Holmes tests.

"Dad, Hattori, are you really okay?" Xiaolan looked at the two of them with a worried look on her face.

She just learned that the two of them had not done a single question since last night. According to Kanaya Hiroyuki's rules, they would not be eligible to participate in the after-dinner reasoning quiz.

Hattori Heiji said nonchalantly, "It's okay. I just came here to try my luck and see if I could find Kudo. I'm not interested in participating in the competition at all."

Maori Kogoro also had an indifferent expression on his face: "It's just a broken book, just give it to someone else."

When he said this, he spoke in a low voice, fearing that he would arouse the dissatisfaction of the Sherlock Holmes fans around him.

At this moment, Fujisawa Toshiaki's impatient voice came from the side: "It's past nine o'clock, where is the boss? When will the final question and answer session he mentioned start?"

"Yeah." Ooki Ayako, who was dressed very sexy, also said, "I just finished the test with great difficulty. When will he grade it?"

The shop assistant named Iwai Hitomi quickly reassured them, "I've been ordered to serve the customers until the boss shows up. Everyone, please wait a moment."

Another three hours passed...
