Conan Rick's Investigator

Next to Cape Wanghai on the cliff, there is a small two-story hotel with a loft. This is the end point of Sherlock Holmes' journey.

Qin Zhibo got out of the car and saw that there was already a car parked in the garage. He knew that the people in the other car had arrived there.

In other words, this case may be very luxurious...

The female driver, Hitomi Iwai, who was also the hotel waitress, invited everyone in the van into the hotel.

The innkeeper stood in the middle of the crowd and introduced himself warmly: "Dear guests, I would like to sincerely welcome you to the Lovek Inn."

"I'm the innkeeper who planned this trip for everyone, Kanaya Hiroyuki..."

The inn owner, Hiroyuki Kanaya, dressed in a Sherlock Holmes costume and smoking a large pipe that couldn't produce any smoke, welcomed everyone in a very formal manner.

As soon as Mr. Jingu finished his introduction, Mao Lilan couldn't wait to step forward and ask, "Excuse me, where is the high school detective in this tour group?"

Mao Lilan had no intention of listening to Mr. Jingu's welcome speech just now.

From the moment she entered the door, her mind was focused on finding the "famous high school detective".

However, there wasn't anyone here who looked like a high school student...

Boss Jingu looked around and asked in confusion, "Hey? He was here just now, why is he gone now?"

Missing?

Shinichi must have seen me coming, so he hid!

"Shinichi!"

"Shinichi! Why are you hiding from me?"

Ran Mao Li shouted hard in the hotel, catching everyone around her off guard.

"Shinichi...what is the little girl shouting?" Baymax asked in confusion.

Conan, lying on the ground, was speechless and could only shout in his heart: I'm right here!

Just when everyone was puzzled, a melodious and contented voice sounded from behind the door of the hotel living room.

"Kudo Shinichi, a famous detective from Kanto High School before I came here, mysteriously disappeared while on a date with his girlfriend at an amusement park one day and hasn't been seen in public since."

"There are rumors outside that he was secretly killed by someone..."

Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw another young man wearing a Sherlock Holmes costume.

Above his head, Qin Zhibo saw the three words "Baima Tan".

Chapter 283 Various Misunderstandings...

I really didn't expect that Bai Ma Tan would come...

Qin Zhibo was a little surprised when he saw this unexpected person appear.

When in the car, he only heard that it was another famous high school detective, but Qin Zhibo did not associate it with Hakuba Detective.

After all, in this world, being a high school detective is a profession, and there are many people who engage in this profession...

At this time, Bai Ma Tan, who had just returned to his room and changed into Sherlock Holmes cosplay costume, walked into the living room and looked around at everyone in the living room.

First up is the girl who just kept calling out "Shinichi"...

Nakamori-san?

Bai Ma frowned, but his keen observation allowed him to quickly distinguish the girl in front of him from his classmates.

Judging from her hairstyle, this girl's cone-shaped head is more recognizable.

Since she calls Kudo Shinichi by his name, it means that she has a very close relationship with him.

They are similar in age, could she be Kudo Shinichi's girlfriend?

I can ask about the details of Kudo Shinichi's disappearance later. It might be another big case...

followed by……

Bai Ma Tan's gaze swept across the crowd again and caught sight of Qin Zhibo standing in the crowd.

It's him!

Why did he come here?

Bai Matan's gaze fell on Qin Zhibo, and his eyes suddenly became hot.

The reason for this is naturally that Qin Zhibo is currently the first choice for Kaito Kidd in Bai Ba Tan's mind.

Kaito Kidd himself must have some ulterior motive for coming to this Sherlock Holmes journey!

I must find it!

Thinking in his heart, Bai Ma stepped forward and stretched out his palm, greeting: "Mr. Qin, what a coincidence, we meet again..."

"Well, it's quite a coincidence."

Qin Zhibo didn't feel guilty at all. He calmly stretched out his hand and shook hands with Bai Ma.

With his hands clasped together, Bai Ma peered into Qin Zhibo's face and carefully observed his face, analyzing his inner thoughts through his facial micro-expressions.

His eyes were firm, his nose and mouth were free of any small movements, a standard poker face, revealing no flaws...

As expected of Kaito Kidd, he is indeed a master.

Although Qin Zhibo already had the information, he still habitually started an investigation to see how Bai Ma Tan's health was doing recently.

Bai Ma Tan's physical fitness is 60, without any decrease.

It seems that even though they knew that Hakuba Inspector was investigating, the Beast Brotherhood did not take action against him. It is likely that they were afraid of Hakuba Inspector's father, who is the Superintendent of Police.

It seems that no matter which world it is, it will never go wrong to have a father with a strong background.

As the two were testing each other by shaking hands, Conan next to them also came over and looked up at the "confrontation" between the two.

Hakuba Tan, this is the name Conan saw recently while following the news.

The famous high school detective who returned from London, England, is said to have received an invitation to become an official detective of the Scotland Yard police in the UK.

So envious...

Conan was not envious of Detective Hakuba for receiving an invitation from Scotland Yard, but of the fact that he had lived in London, Holmes' hometown, for such a long time.

Although it is easy for him to go to high school in London due to his father's influence, he cannot leave his childhood sweetheart.

It was the woman who held back his wind-like steps.

But as a man, addicted to women, he is willing to...

Conan continued to watch the two of them and found that there was a hint of provocation on Hakuba's face, as if the words "I challenge you" were almost written on his face.

In contrast, Qin Zhibo seemed content and had a nonchalant expression.

How is this going?

Could it be that Bai Ma Tan also lost to Qin Zhibo in a case, so he is not convinced?

laugh……

Upon learning that his colleague lost to Qin Zhibo, Conan first secretly rejoiced, and then turned to comfort him.

Eh...really, what does it matter if I lose to Qin Zhibo?

People like me have already lost, so they don't...

Thinking of this, Conan was suddenly stunned.

When did I become so unmotivated!

No!

I also want to rekindle my fighting spirit!

Let’s start with this Sherlock Holmes journey!

With the "encouragement" of his peers, the flames of the microcosm erupted and burned fiercely in Conan's twin boys.

Ran Mouri and Minoru Masashi stood aside, looking at the three people standing together in a tripod posture with inexplicable confusion.

Uncle, high school student, elementary school student...

Why can we feel a sense of harmony when three people of completely different age groups stand together?

……

Just as Hakuba Tan and Conan were burning with fighting spirit, Boss Jin Gu saw the clothes on Hakuba Tan and felt annoyed.

It turned out that Hakuba Tan had suddenly left the living room just now to change into Sherlock Holmes cosplay costume.

I didn't expect that he is also a Sherlock Holmes cosplayer...

The same clothes look very handsome on Bai Ma Tan, but his chubby body makes this custom-made cosplay costume look a little out of shape.

I should have known not to invite him...

This Sherlock Holmes tour group was unprecedented, with applications from a total of four famous detectives.

Two uncle-level detectives, Kogoro Mouri and Tomohiro Hata.

Two high school detectives, Hattori Heiji and Hakuba Tan.

The application quota for Kogoro Mouri was for a family of three, but for the sake of fairness and to limit the number of participants in the event, Mr. Kanaya decided to give two places to both of them.

In the end, the most crucial person, Maori Kogoro, didn't show up. Instead, an elementary school student and a little girl came...

As for the high school detective, Hattori Heiji needs to drive to Osaka to pick him up, which is very troublesome.

The White Horse Detective said that he would take care of the transportation himself, and since he had just returned from London, England, it was more in line with the theme of this Sherlock Holmes journey.

So the boss chose Hakuba Tanaka to replace Hattori Heiji.

But he never expected that Bai Ma Tan was actually a Sherlock Holmes cosplayer, who stole his limelight at the critical moment.

The people I invited didn't show up, and the people I invited stole my limelight.

What a bad hand of cards!

Boss Jingu, feeling somewhat annoyed, immediately interrupted everyone's conversation and announced the rules of this Sherlock Holmes journey.

The first part is the Sherlock Holmes 1000 Questions. Only those who answer at least 990 questions correctly can participate in the reasoning question-and-answer session after dinner tomorrow night.

As long as you win the reasoning question-answering session, you will get...

"A rare first edition of 'A Study in Scarlet'!"

When Boss Jingu took out the reward, everyone's eyes lit up, except Bai Matan, who looked calm and composed.

Having lived in London for so many years and being a die-hard fan of Sherlock Holmes, he naturally bought this collection of books a long time ago.

The title of Young Master Bai Ma is not undeserved.

At this point, Qin Zhibo, whose knowledge of Sherlock Holmes was limited to the TV and movie versions, raised his hand and asked, "Could the two of us please fill out a questionnaire?"

Boss Jingu was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "In principle, it's not allowed, but Mr. Qin is my special guest, so of course he doesn't need to answer any questions. He just needs to give a speech at the end..."

Qin Zhibo breathed a sigh of relief. Answering questions was the most annoying thing.

The Bai Ma Tan captured the key information from Qin Zhibo's words, that Qin Zhibo came to the event with two people.

That other person...

It must be Kaito Kidd’s stand assistant!

Chapter 284: Bai Ma Tan's misunderstanding deepens...

Bai Ma Tan's sharp eyes swept through the crowd, and his gaze soon fell on Ma Chengshi, who was standing next to Qin Zhibo.

Is it her?

Bai Ma Tan walked over with a gentleman's gait and asked gracefully, "Excuse me, is this young lady here with Mr. Qin?"

Ma Chengshi was stunned for a moment and nodded in agreement.

Bai Ma Tan smiled triumphantly, "My name is Bai Ma Tan, hello."
