Haha~

Greasy?

It's completely useless.

I have long since dried up silence!

Wang Changsheng's heart started to tremble again, but he kept a straight face and stood quietly aside, listening to the adults talk.

"We received a commission, so we came here to investigate." Uncle Maori responded with a slight blush on his cheeks.

"Oh?" Yuan Mei raised an eyebrow, her eyes flickering slightly. "Did you come here because you received a commission? I wonder who commissioned you?"

"Ah, I just told my little brother Changsheng that it was a commission sent to us by a non-existent person." Uncle Maori answered every question.

"That person who doesn't exist..." Sonomi's expression returned to normal. "Is that person called Aso Keiji?"

"Ok?"

Her words stunned everyone present.

Only Wang Changsheng was previously told by Zhishi that her mother's purpose of coming here this time might not be as simple as traveling.

However, seeing that she brought it up in front of him, as if she had no intention of hiding it at all, Wang Changsheng was a little confused again.

Chapter 314 This tune is too disgusting

"Excuse me, how did you know about Keiji Aso?"

Conan tilted his head slightly, his tone tinged with childishness and innocence, but his eyes held a calmness that only a very mature person could possess.

Kogoro Mouri and Ran on the side did not stop Conan, but instead set their eyes on Sonomi, obviously wanting to know the answer to the question asked by Conan.

It seems that there is nothing that cannot be said.

Yuan Mei responded to Conan generously and naturally: "We came here to play, in addition to wanting to travel, it is because someone sent us a letter of commission."

"Letter of commission?" Conan was stunned.

Uncle Maori standing by was also stunned.

Xiaolan quickly asked: "So, the person who sent you the letter is that Aso Keiji?"

Yuan Mei didn't deny it, but nodded gently: "Yes, I was also confused when I received the commission, so I sent someone to check, but it turned out that this gentleman had passed away many years ago."

"So you already knew about Keiji Aso's situation before you came here?" Conan came back to his senses and asked again.

"Yes."

"If that's the case, you should also find this matter very strange, right?" Conan frowned at her. As he spoke, he glanced at Wang Changsheng again: "Then why did you bring a child here? Aren't you afraid of any danger?"

Conan's words added a hint of surprise to Yuan Mei's cold expression.

It seems that they didn't expect Conan to be such a small child.

How could he say such a thing?

Why would you bring children here?

Isn't he just a child himself?

He said this as if he were an adult.

Yuan Mei couldn't help but laugh: "Little friend, you are quite interesting. It feels like you are a little adult, haha~"

As Yuanmei finished speaking, Conan's originally calm expression suddenly disappeared.

He rubbed the back of his head awkwardly, then let out a couple of awkward laughs, his tone becoming innocent again. "Huh? Really? Thanks for the compliment, but I just usually enjoy reading detective novels and watching TV shows! I heard that reading those kinds of things often makes you smarter!"

Wang Changsheng watched Conan pretending to be stupid, with a slight smile on his face.

I almost made fun of him on the spot.

If there wasn't someone else next to him, Wang Changsheng would definitely record Conan's current appearance from all angles.

This may be a very valuable asset in the future.

"You little brat, the adults are talking, why do you keep butting in?"

At this moment, Uncle Maori seemed to finally realize something.

He rubbed the top of Conan's head hard.

It is said to be soft, but in fact it is almost the same as beating.

He was yelling at Conan's head while laughing: "What's the point of being clever? This kid has probably watched too many detective movies. Now he wants to get involved in everything. He's annoying me to death."

"Don't worry about him, let's just continue chatting." Uncle Maori pushed Conan aside, completely ignoring the fact that Conan was covering his aching forehead with pitiful tears in the corners of his eyes.

It was Xiaolan who pulled Conan over again and gently rubbed the big bump on his head.

Look at this one for the kids.

"Don't bully the child too much. Although he is a little boy, he should be beaten more. But this child has several big bumps on his head. I beat him a little too hard." Yuan Mei said with a chuckle.

"Ahaha, that's right, what you said makes sense." Maori Kogoro echoed and affirmed what Sonomi said.

The two chatted for a few more words before Yuan Mei finally answered Conan's question: "It's just a commission. There's no danger in it, kid. Don't worry, I'll take care of all these things. Besides, aren't you here too?"

Sonomi changed the subject: "Mr. Maori, since you have also received a commission, and it was sent by the non-existent Aso Keiji, I believe you have already learned some information at the office just now?"

"Ah? Ah, yes." Maori Kogoro was stunned for a moment, then nodded. "Just now at the town office, I asked about Aso Keiji, but I learned that he had passed away a long time ago."

Although Yuanmei had just arrived and did not enter the office, she revealed some information that Uncle Maori did not say.

"You know that Keiji Aso passed away more than ten years ago."

Uncle Maori nodded and did not deny it. Conan asked this question when he was in the office just now, and he also knew about this situation.

Yuan Mei slightly parted her bright red lips and glanced sideways at Wang Changsheng while speaking.

There was an indescribable meaning in his eyes.

She did not avoid Wang Changsheng or Conan, the two children.

Instead, he openly told everything he knew: "But what you may not know is that Aso Keiji's death was very strange."

"Oh?" Uncle Maori's expression suddenly turned serious, and his thick eyebrows furrowed. "Is there some hidden secret here? Can you tell me more about it?"

Conan also looked at Yuanmei, and couldn't help but recall that when he asked the staff in the office just now about Keiji Aso, the staff's expression suddenly became puzzled, as if he shouldn't ask this person.

"I sent someone to investigate. It's said that Aso Keiji first killed his wife and even his children. After killing his family, he set fire to the house, and he himself died in the fire..."

Yuanmei looked at Uncle Maori, and her lavender eyes seemed very calm.

When she said this, Wang Changsheng couldn't even feel any emotion in her.

Uncle Maori didn't feel anything, but after hearing what Yuan Mei said, he looked very surprised: "He is so cruel? This kind of behavior is simply a beast!"

Conan: "..."

Seeing Uncle Maori's disgusted expression towards Aso Keiji, Conan twitched his lips calmly, then raised his head and asked Yuanmei in a childish voice in front of Xiaolan: "Who would use such a bad person's name to send us a letter of commission? This person has been dead for so long. The person who can use his name must have some relationship with him, right?"

"My beautiful aunt, do you know who else Keiji Aso knows?" Conan asked the key question in just a few words.

Uncle Maori nodded his head stupidly, still realizing what was happening. "Yes, the person who pulled this prank must know Keiji Aso, but who is it?"

He touched his chin with one hand and supported his chest with the other, looking deep in thought.

"Well..." Yuan Mei smiled, "I'm not sure."

Conan didn't get an answer from Yuan Mei. Although he didn't believe that she didn't know anything at all, he still nodded and said, "It doesn't matter if you don't know. We still have a way to find the person who sent us the letter."

Sonomi even knows how Aso Keiji died, which is probably something that people on the island don't want to talk about.

This was also the reason why he didn't get the answer from the staff at the town office.

No one on the island wanted to mention it. What she had just heard from that brat Wang Changsheng was that they had never been to this island before, but they just sent people to investigate and found out all these things.

So who else does Keiji Aso know?

What is his network like?

Wouldn’t Yuanmei know this?

Conan expressed his disbelief.

However, he still didn't know what kind of commission the person who issued the commission to them had issued to Yuan Mei.

Conan even instinctively expressed doubts about whether the letter of commission had actually been sent to her.

However, Conan felt that there should be no problem with this.

After all, he has been dead for more than ten years. Yuan Mei forged a letter of authorization to come here for vacation, and brought Wang Changsheng and other burdens with her. It doesn't look like she wants to do anything.

As for the specific situation, if Yuan Mei really received a letter of commission, we may have to wait until we see the original letter before we can speculate on the real reason why she came here.

"What? Do you know how we can find the person who sent us the letter?" Uncle Maori looked at Conan suddenly and warned: "Hey, little brat, don't think you can talk nonsense just because you've watched a couple of detective movies!"

"I'm not making up any nonsense!" Conan shouted, "A lot of what I read is based on facts!"

"Little boy, what are your ideas? Tell us about them." Yuan Mei spoke slowly, looking at Conan with interest in her beautiful eyes.

Wang Changsheng looked at this guy and was a little curious about what he would say.

Since his performance is so outstanding, does no one really doubt that he is a little too outstanding for a child?

"Ahem!" Seeing that everyone's attention was on him, Conan coughed twice, but still remained rational and expressed his opinions in a childish tone.

"Well, before I came here, I learned something useful on TV. If you want to send a letter, you usually have to stamp it with a small stamp from where you are."

Xiaolan nodded: "Yes, Conan, what you are talking about should be called a postmark."

"Oh, so it's called a postmark~" Conan described it in a baby voice.

After hearing this, Wang Changsheng felt that the corners of his mouth could hardly be controlled, and he forced himself to suppress the urge to pout.

Why does this guy speak so disgustingly?

So disgusting.

Isn’t this too fake?

I just glanced at the people around me and found that no one seemed to feel anything.

He fell silent again.

"Isn't this the tone I usually use when talking to people?"

Just as Wang Changsheng was doubting himself, Conan continued to speak. He looked at Uncle Maori and said, "Uncle Maori, isn't there a postmark on the letter of commission sent to us? That should be the postmark for this island, right?"

Uncle Maori nodded: "That seems to be the case, so what?"

"..." Conan glanced at Uncle Maori inconspicuously, with a hint of disdain in his eyes, but he still said: "So, the person who sent us the letter should be from Moon Shadow Island, right?"

Hearing this, Uncle Maori suddenly understood. He clapped his hands and said, "That makes sense!"

Watching the interaction between the two, Yuan Mei, who was standing by, still had an elegant smile on her face, but there was a hint of suspicion in her eyes.

"Such a simple thing, how could this famous detective who's been so popular lately and in the newspapers every day not think of it? It actually took a child to wake him up..."

Her eyes fell on Conan, who was still talking non-stop.

"Also, this island doesn't seem particularly developed. It seems the residents rely on fishing for survival."

"And the person who sent the letter to you, Uncle Maori, also paid you a commission of 500,000. Although it's not a lot, it should be considered a considerable sum for the people on this island, right?"

"To be able to pay you so much money all at once, he must have a certain financial foundation on this island. Otherwise, these 500,000 yuan would be enough for a family to live on for a long time."

At this point, Conan paused, then set his eyes on Yuan Mei who was standing beside him: "I would like to ask this beautiful aunt, did the person who sent you the letter pay you the commission?"

Hearing Conan's question, Yuan Mei smiled politely and generously. She paused for a moment, then nodded: "I have paid."

Although she spoke straightforwardly, Linghuan Xinlong, who was beside Wang Changsheng, felt that this person's attitude seemed a little hesitant.

He usually fools so many people, and he can be said to have a very good grasp of people's emotions.

However, what puzzled him was that it was just a commission fee. If it had been paid, it had been paid. If it had not been paid, it had not been paid. Why would he hesitate?

Although he was puzzled, Lingxuan Xinlong did not think too much about it, thinking that perhaps the chaebol wife did not want to tell too much to these common people.

After all, he is a member of a chaebol, so it is normal for him to have any temper.

In Reigen Shinryu's opinion, this chaebol wife named Daidoji Sonomi has a very good personality.

There is no arrogance at all.
