Chapter 951 Such Monitoring
While eating, Hattori Heizo kept looking at the mascot Martin.
As early as the last time they met, he was very concerned about who the person dressed as the mascot was, but at that time they were discussing business, not suitable for small talk, and later Martin did not join the investigation and turned to play. Now that the investigation has no results, it is a good opportunity for everyone to sit together for dinner and chat.
But Hattori Heizo saw that the current mascot Martin was more abstract than when he saw it in the morning - he could actually eat in this state? And chat with his son while eating?
"I wonder who this person is...?"
"Hello, my name is Martin, and I'm the mascot of your World Expo." Martin said directly.
"I remember the mascot was called Maimai..." Although Hattori Heizo had no interest in this thing, as an official, and an official of Osaka Prefecture, he naturally had to force himself to remember it.
"So it's Martin now."
Hattori Heizou: "..."
"Dad, this guy is Gongte, a friend of Xiaolan and the others." Hattori Heiji was stepped on by Conan under the table because he made a slip of the tongue again. He briefly introduced Martin: "This guy has superpowers. Just treat him as a magician like Kaito Kid."
Hattori Heizo remained silent, but he looked at Hattori Heiji with a hint of dissatisfaction: Do you want to listen to what you are talking about? Superpowers? Magic? Apart from your half-baked detective identity, you are at least a high school student. Is this what a high school student should say?
Although Hattori Heizo's eyes were small, the dissatisfaction in his eyes when he looked at Hattori Heiji had been caught by everyone present.
Kazuha felt that Hattori Heiji was quite wronged, and opened her mouth to explain something for him, but she didn't know where to start. It seemed that it would be better for Martin to speak up himself.
Martin did speak, but what he said had nothing to do with the previous topic: "Speaking of which, my impression is that when Japanese people are more perfunctory in naming, the eldest brother is called Taro, and the second brother is called Jiro...Does the black-haired guy have an older brother?"
In addition, his father Hattori Heizo is also of the "Ping" generation. If you just look at the name, you would think this is the name of Hattori Heiji's brother... It seems like the naming style of a general family in a certain country.
"That's all outdated. I'm an only child." Hattori Heiji shook his head: "Should I be called Hattori Heita?"
"It doesn't sound very smooth." Martin thought for a moment and said, "'Taiping' is more smooth."
Masumi Sera raised her head alertly. She felt as if she was being persecuted, but also as if it was just an illusion.
Just as Hattori Heiji was about to say something, someone opened the door and walked in: "Hattori-kun!"
The person who came in was a thin old man in a suit and tie. He was not here to look for Hattori Heiji, but his father Hattori Heizo.
Hattori Heizo exchanged a few pleasantries with him, then introduced the old man to the others: "This is Mr. Kubo, the governor of Hyogo Prefecture (looking at Heiji), he is an old friend of your grandfather."
Although they say they are old friends in public, they are not that familiar with each other in reality. Places like Nara Prefecture, Hyogo Prefecture, Wakayama Prefecture, etc. are all within the radiation range of the Osaka metropolitan area, so it is inevitable that officials from these places will interact with each other.
Hattori Heiji greeted him as a well-behaved junior, but his eyes were much sharper - this governor of Hyogo Prefecture was one of the people that the deceased governor of Nara Prefecture had contact with during the opening ceremony of the World Expo, and he was also the suspected poisoner. And because of his identity, he was the most difficult suspect for the police to investigate.
But if a detective comes to investigate, it will naturally be much more flexible and convenient.
"Hattori Heiji lowered his head and looked at Conan. They immediately realized that they had the same idea and made an investigation plan. They could play the good cop and the bad cop together - of course, Hattori Heiji could only play the bad cop."
Hattori Heiji rolled his eyes at Martin and said, "Hey! What do you mean by suddenly adding narration?"
Martin sighed and continued to explain to the air in a voiceover tone: "Hattori Heiji likes to roll his eyes because it is the most effective way for him to increase the average brightness of his skin color."
Not to mention that Hattori Heiji has already been researching how to pop a mascot's eyeballs, Conan has already stepped forward to execute the plan: "Hey, grandpa, you also participated in the opening ceremony, right?"
Even though there were Ran, Hattori Heiji, Sera Masumi, Martin and others who knew his identity behind him, and more than a hundred eyes were watching his joke, Conan shamelessly pretended to be a little kid, even with a babyish voice: "Didn't it have a lot of people at the opening ceremony?"
The three little ones looked at Conan's back with disdain: "Conan is really hypocritical." "Every time he meets an important person, Conan will speak in such a disgusting tone." "What a flattering guy."
A string of black threads hung on Xiaolan's head.
"There are indeed a lot of people, but I'm not in the crowd. I went with Oda and Kishimoto to carry the mikoshi." Governor Kubo said kindly. Just as Conan was about to ask more, Otaki Goro suddenly ran in from outside: "Director! Huh... Something happened in the venue!"
Martin immediately thought of Maori Kogoro, who had gone to the toilet and had not returned yet: "Could it be that Uncle Kogoro blocked the toilet?"
"Huh... No, no..." Otaki Goro denied, breathing heavily.
"So Uncle Kogoro couldn't tell the direction of the toilet door and dismantled the toilet?"
"You kid don't wish me the best at all!" Maori Kogoro suddenly walked in from behind Otaki Goro and said to Martin with a sour face.
"Otaki, calm down and tell me slowly. What happened?" Hattori Heizo temporarily ignored Martin and Mori Kogoro, stared at Otaki Goro and asked in a deep voice.
"Fire... There was a fire in the venue!"
Hattori Heizo's face changed, and Governor Kubo stood up suddenly: "What are the casualties? Have the tourists been evacuated?"
Otaki Goro shook his head. "The place where the fire broke out is an unopened area (a venue that has not yet been completed). There are no tourists or even workers. The fire brigade has been called and they should be putting out the fire now."
"As for the tourists, some of them should have seen the smoke from the fire from a distance, and some of them should have seen the fire trucks."
It turned out that there was no danger, and Hattori Heizo and Governor Kubo both breathed a sigh of relief.
"There's nothing we can do about it." Hattori Heizo nodded, then looked at Governor Kubo: "Let's go to the scene and take a look."
It was an accident, big or small. It would be fine if the senior official was not at the meeting, but since he was at the scene, he naturally had to show up to check it out.
Governor Kubo naturally nodded in agreement and traveled with Hattori Heizo, and the detectives followed.
"It feels a bit weird..." The mascot Martin also followed him out, muttering as he walked, "Let's install a surveillance camera here."
Do you want to improvise a pinhole camera? No, there is a more convenient way.
Martin stretched out his hand and grabbed one of the densely packed red balls on his head, then gently pulled out a ball with eyeballs. Then he casually glanced at the surrounding environment and stuck the red ball with eyeballs on the corner of the wall, making a "pop" sound.
As for the way to arrive at the scene, the fastest one is naturally the aerial shuttle, that is, a flying car.
Kogoro Mouri looked at the flying car with no wheels but only propellers with a strange expression, and quietly took half a step back.
"I still don't recommend flying cars to Black Charcoal Head." Martin walked out of the building and reminded again after seeing the flying car: "It will crash."
Kogoro Maori took another step back.
"Since you insist on saying that, then I'll ride in the same car with you!" Hattori Heiji grabbed Martin angrily and forcibly dragged Martin to get on the flying car first.
Then Hattori Heizo and Governor Kubo also got on the car, they needed to rush to the scene as soon as possible. Conan jumped on and was held by Hattori Heiji. There were two empty seats in the car, and Hattori Heizo cast his eyes on Maori Kogoro. Maori Kogoro was a celebrity, and secondly, Maori Kogoro could take the opportunity to observe Governor Kubo.
"I..." When Maori Kogoro was trying to find a proper reason to refuse, Sera Masumi pushed him from behind and said, "Let's go, Uncle Kogoro, let's go and take a look together."
In this way, Masumi Sera naturally got on the flying car, and then the car took off.
It only took ten minutes to fly from their location to the burning Indian Pavilion. However, in the fifth minute after takeoff, when Kogoro Maori was still closing his eyes and praying that the plane would not crash, suddenly a loud "bang" sounded in everyone's ears.
"It's over!" Maori Kogoro screamed subconsciously. (End of this chapter)
