"Xiaolan, you are talking about...that person?" Kogoro Mouri noticed that his daughter's choice of words was not right.
"Martin and I found the real Shinichi on the mountain. As for the person who lost his memory, he should be Mr. Yada who wrote to Hattori." Mao Lilan said briefly: "Where did they go?"
"The Osaka kid took the car keys and took that guy out through the back door." Maori Kogoro pointed in the direction: "I guess he went to the parking lot and hid him in the car."
"Isn't he Kudo Shinichi?" Toyama Kazuha became worried: "Will Heiji be in danger?"
"I'll take care of it!" Mao Lilan was so anxious that she forgot all the plans they had discussed before. She turned around and ran out, and even Kazuha followed her.
Maori Kogoro looked at Martin who was standing aside as if nothing had happened and asked: "You're not going?"
No one told Kogoro Mori that Makoto Yada had a gun, otherwise Kogoro Mori would have run over himself instead of staying here waiting for the police and ambulance.
"No, I'm tired of running all day. I can't catch up with Xiaolan anyway." Martin shrugged and walked towards the balcony of the room. "Besides, we can see the parking lot directly from here. It's enough to watch the excitement."
In fact, he thought about running over to drive away while Makoto Yada was in the trunk, and then driving the car to do a Thomas Full Spin to shake the guy off. But Xiaolan would definitely not agree with him wasting time like this.
……
PARKING LOT.
Behind the car rented by Maori Kogoro, Hattori Heiji said to Kudo Shinichi who was lying in the trunk: "You hide here, don't come out, I will find the real murderer!"
As he was about to close the trunk, Hattori Heiji said this when Mouri Ran ran over.
"Hattori!"
"Mouri, why are you here?" Hattori Heiji felt a little guilty and looked behind Mouri Ran to see if she had called the police.
"Hattori-kun, I heard everything. I want to talk to... 'Shinichi'."
Mao Lilan glanced at the distance between Hattori Heiji and Kudo Shinichi. It was still a little dangerous to reveal the truth now, so she said, "Um, can you move away for a bit?"
"Eh? Oh." Hattori Heiji was a little confused. It was normal for Mouri Ran and Kudo to whisper to each other, but the time and place were a little inappropriate.
But despite his doubts, Hattori Heiji turned around and made way for them, and even strolled about six or seven meters away. He seemed to have his back to them, but in fact he was quietly listening.
Mao Lilan came over and saw 'Kudo Shinichi' lying in the trunk, still pretending to be confused. She reached out and pulled his arm: "Come out and talk first."
The instructor of the karate club never taught her how to beat up someone lying in the trunk. It was only after she let the other person stand in front of her first that Mao Li Ran felt it would be easier to exert force.
Kudo Shinichi was pulled out and stood still obediently. Mao Lilan still did not let go of his arm, but directly said: "Go and turn yourself in, okay?"
"Huh?" Hattori Heiji, who was eavesdropping nearby, could no longer pretend and turned his head with his eyes wide open.
Kudo Shinichi's eyes widened in surprise: Is she asking Kudo Shinichi to turn himself in? It seems that she is a good person who can distinguish right from wrong... It is indeed my goal to kill someone as Kudo Shinichi and go to jail, but before that, I still want to see if those guys who claim to be famous detectives will still cover up for Kudo Shinichi and ignore the truth when there is irrefutable evidence that the murderer is Kudo Shinichi.
"I don't..." Makoto Yada was about to continue pretending to have amnesia, but just as he expressed a little denial, he felt a huge force coming from his wrist that was grabbed, and then his eyes blurred, as if a leg appeared in front of him.
Then the sky began to spin before my eyes, and the feeling of my body touching the ground was so familiar. Then, starting from my shoulders, I began to feel pain all over my body.
"Hey, Mori!" Hattori Heiji was stunned. He just saw Mori Ran do a roundhouse kick in the air and directly kick "Kudo Shinichi" away.
"Heiji, be careful!" Kazuha, who had been chasing after Mouri Ran, ran over at this time.
A revolver fell to the ground and landed not far in front of Kudo Shinichi.
"Pistol?" Hattori Heiji was stunned. He saw clearly that after Mouri Ran kicked Kudo Shinichi away, the pistol fell out of Kudo Shinichi's body. That was not something that Kudo Shinichi should have.
"He's not Shinichi..." Ran Maoli turned around and explained the whole story to Heiji Hattori. "...I think Mr. Yada must have some misunderstanding with Shinichi."
Maori Ran had missed one thing. When Xiaolan was in Beihua, she would only need one kick to temporarily disable the criminals she encountered; but Makoto Yada had been running around in the mountains for many years pretending to be a dead god, so his body was much stronger than that of the people in the city. He was a legendary fall-resistant king who was only slightly injured after Maori Kogoro's fatal eight falls, and could stand up like nothing happened after resting.
Although she almost fainted when she was kicked away, Makoto Yada recovered faster than she expected. He heard her conversation with Hattori Heiji and knew that he had been exposed.
When he opened his eyes and regained his focus, his gaze happened to fall on the pistol that fell not far away. He immediately struggled to get up and reached out to pick up the pistol.
Hattori Heiji was talking to Mao Lilan face to face, so he naturally saw the fake Kudo Shinichi behind Mao Lilan move: "Be careful!"
Mao Lilan turned around and saw that Makoto Yada had picked up the gun again, and immediately rushed over: "No!"
At this distance, if Makoto Yada shot at her, she could easily dodge the bullet and quickly grab the gun before the next shot. But Kudo Shinichi guessed it right. After Makoto Yada got the gun, he pointed it directly at his own chin, clearly wanting to kill himself.
That's too late!
Bang! A gunshot rang out.
Makoto Yada looked at his empty hands blankly, with the fragments of the revolver scattered all over the ground.
A few hundred meters away, on the balcony of the former village chief's residence, Bald Qiang Martin held a shotgun in both hands and stepped on the balcony railing: "What? Brother Qiang, I am a pretty accurate shooter."
There was a wisp of smoke floating from the muzzle of the shotgun, indicating that the bullet that had just shattered the revolver came from here. Facts have proved that as long as you don't shoot at living things, Bald Qiang's shooting skills can really hit whatever you point at.
A hand fell on Bald Qiang Martin's shoulder.
The man was wearing a business suit and had a thin beard. His eyes were smiling, but his face was cold. "You are so arrogant, you shot in front of the police? Do you have a gun license?"
This is the police officer who came to handle the "Kudo Shinichi murder case".
Martin took out his gun license and gave it to the other party.
"Wow, it really exists... Well, it's only for use in the Gouxiong Ridge Forest Farm." The male criminal policeman took a look at the scenery outside. Although the house was indeed surrounded by lush green trees, he had been in charge of this area for more than ten years and had never heard of this forest being renamed Gouxiong Ridge. There are no bears here.
Maori Kogoro crossed his arms in the room, seeing that the boy could not escape being taken away by the police for investigation. Maori Kogoro did not think of being in a hurry at all, but felt that the people were really happy today. "Emm..." Martin thought for a while, and suddenly pointed behind the male detective: "Look!"
The male detective didn't even bother to turn around: "What? Is there a bear behind me?"
"No, it's my accomplice." Martin said seriously.
Huh? The male detective and several other police officers turned their heads away.
Behind them, Maori Kogoro also turned his head and found that there was nothing behind him. Then he turned back and found that the police were all looking at him: "Huh?"
When the male detective looked back again, Bald Qiang Martin was no longer on the balcony. He only saw the large rabbit-like creature climbing over the railing and jumping down.
"Come on!"
On the other side of the parking lot, an old police officer who was in charge of the case at that time went to arrest Makoto Yada, and then talked about his motive for committing the crime, that is, why he hated Shinichi Kudo so much.
Makoto Yada's hatred for Shinichi Kudo was indeed due to a very strange misunderstanding. He had no idea about the real reason why the village chief killed his wife, but Shinichi Kudo had asked the old police officer to tell Makoto Yada the real reason and keep it secret from other villagers. After hearing his motive for committing the crime, the old police officer swore that he had clearly told him the real reason.
In the end, the two of them spent a long time comparing accounts and pieced together the truth - when the old police officer explained the truth to Makoto Yada, Makoto Yada was distracted by the death of his adoptive parents and did not hear it.
Just because of distraction, the person who should have understood Kudo Shinichi the most in Toou Honamura, the number one fan whose wall was covered with Kudo Shinichi's photos, instead became the number one anti-fan who wanted to destroy Kudo Shinichi from a social level. The absurdity of his fate is mind-boggling.
……
The case was solved, and the client was also solved. In the end, the group didn't feel like taking a hot spring bath in Toouho Village. They came in the morning and left in the afternoon.
However, before setting off, Kudo Shinichi, wearing the clothes of the Death God, appeared in front of them.
"Is it really Kudo Shinichi this time?" Toyama Kazuha stared with wide eyes, observing Kudo Shinichi as if he were a rare animal: "Is it not Kaito Kid in disguise? Is it not the criminal in disguise?"
Mao Lilan shook her head again and again, confirming that Toyama Kazuha finally really met this "powerful rival who was competing with her for Hattori Heiji".
However, there was nothing much to talk about between her and Kudo Shinichi. After all, it was impossible for them to really have a duel for Hattori Heiji. They greeted each other and got into their separate cars.
——In order to prevent being found overloaded by the traffic police again, Toyama Kazuha and Hattori Heiji took a taxi directly to the station and returned to Osaka. In Maori Kogoro's car were Maori Ran, Kudo Shinichi and...
"Speaking of criminals, there is one who dared to get into my car." Kogoro Mouri looked at Martin who was sitting in the passenger seat and complained.
"Um, uncle, are you going to call the police?" Martin, who had escaped the police's pursuit, appeared on the passenger seat of Kogoro Mouri with a shotgun. Hearing this, he smiled and answered calmly, with an expression that said, "I have you figured out."
Tuji didn't want to sit in the back seat and insisted on squeezing in the passenger seat with Martin, but was eventually put back into the Poké Ball by Martin.
"Tsk, I don't care." Kogoro Mori muttered unhappily, then drove on the road home.
……
On the way, Maori Kogoro suddenly spoke when the atmosphere in the car was dull:
"By the way, kid (referring to Martin), some time ago, as a famous detective, I helped a lady from England solve a difficult case..."
Martin interrupted: "Looking for a cat or a dog?"
Maori Kogoro was furious: "What do you mean? In your eyes, I, Maori Kogoro, can only look for a cat or a dog?"
Martin: "It's not realistic for British ladies to catch mistresses in Japan."
"Hiss!" Kogoro Mouri made the sound of a kettle boiling. If he wasn't holding the steering wheel in his hands, he really wanted to pounce on this kid and fight him first.
However, before Maori Kogoro could continue to brag, Maori Ran said decisively: "Looking for a cat. In fact, we didn't find the kitten on our own initiative. The kitten just happened to meet us."
"Tsk." Maori Kogoro was a little depressed, and then continued: "Anyway, the other party invited us to visit London to thank us, and they are willing to pay for the travel expenses."
"Xiaolan will start school soon, so I plan to take advantage of this last chance before school starts and take her to London in two days."
Maori Kogoro glanced at Martin, sighed slightly, and then continued: "You can come too, just as a way of thanking you for taking care of Xiaolan several times."
"Hey! I'm flattered, uncle." Martin said in an exaggerated tone: "I thought uncle wanted to beat me up and throw me away."
"You're right. I really want to throw you down." Maori Kogoro said with his teeth bared, "But one thing is for another. I have to thank you. Besides, the other party is paying for the trip, so one more person should not matter."
In Maori Kogoro's opinion, Martin often dragged Xiaolan to dangerous places, which was one account, and Martin often took care of and protected Xiaolan and the others, which was another account. The former was a great vengeance that made him want to beat Martin up and throw him out of the car, and the latter was a favor that Xiaolan would not be able to repay if he did not intervene. It was just right to take advantage of this free trip to do a favor.
"It turns out that uncle didn't want to take me to a foreign country and kill me." Martin patted his chest pretentiously: "Oh, I was scared to death."
"But since it's free, I guess it's okay to bring the Doctor along, right?"
"Doctor..." Maori Kogoro thought for a moment and said, "It should be possible."
When the other party invited them, it was a 'family of three', and after informing them in advance there were still two people, so it should be no problem for it to become a group of five.
Martin asked again: "Since we've brought the doctor with us, is it okay to bring Xiao Ai and Sister Qiuya with us as well?"
"This..." Maori Kogoro felt that it was a bit too much for a group of three to become a group of seven, but when he thought that Huihara Akiha was a great beauty, Maori Kogoro felt that he should try his best: "No problem! Leave it to me!"
"Since they are all here, let's also bring along my eldest cousin who is now living in the great detective's house..."
"You've gone too far!"
