Early the next morning, when Shiraijiu yawned and went downstairs with sleepy eyes, he saw Xiaolan holding a newspaper and talking excitedly to Mouri Kogoro, and Conan next to him showed a vague expression of disapproval.
At this time, Xiaolan turned her head and said excitedly: "Xiaojiu, you came just in time. Do you know, I found Mr. Guangtian's trace~"
Bai Jingjiu tilted his head.
"Come, look~" Xiaolan felt very happy that she helped Hirota Masami find clues about her father. She walked over and knelt down to show Shiraijiu today's newspaper. There was a horse racing report on it, and it said something about a horse racing. News about the horse called only King Hao Kuai. "This Haokuai Emperor is also the name of Mr. Hirota's four cats~"
"Hey -" Baijiu has always been very cooperative with girls, "Really, is this what Sister Xiaolan thought of? It's really amazing."
"Ah no no no, not even~" She said modest words, but a sunflower smile appeared on Xiaolan's face.
Because Xiaolan reasoned that she would definitely find Mr. Hirota at the racecourse, even though Mouri Kogoro was very dissatisfied with Xiaolan's opinion, he still took Xiaolan and the two little ghosts to the racecourse.
In fact, if you think about it carefully, although Mr. Mouri Kogoro always likes to complain in words, he has never refused any of Mao Lilan's requests, and he will not be cruel to Xiaolan for no reason. He will even behave when Mao Lilan is angry. Give in.
It can be said that the old daughter is in control.
Tokyo Racecourse, inside the venue.
The Tokyo Racecourse is very large, with 13,750 seats, but you don’t necessarily have to sit down to watch horse racing. According to statistics, the racecourse can accommodate up to 223,000 spectators.
Although it was not an important game on the days when the Maori family came over, the game scene was still full of people and noisy. People are cheering for the horses they support. The scene can be said to be chaotic.
What Xiaolan meant was to find a middle-aged, fat man named Hirota Kenzo among the hundreds of thousands of spectators at the racecourse. No matter how much Conan and Mouri Kogoro thought about it, they thought it was impossible and not that simple.
But in fact, it's that simple.
I saw Mao Lilan holding Bai Jingjiu's hand, looking around, and then looking behind her in surprise, "There!"
"Huh?!"
Mouri Kogoro and Conan turned around in surprise, and then they really saw a chubby middle-aged man who was about to go bald not far away? ! It's like a joke!
The success of yesterday's reasoning and the success of finding the person today made Xiaolan very happy, "Look~ I am also a famous detective!"
Immediately afterwards, Mao Lilan wanted to go up and greet him.
But as soon as he took a step, Mouri Kogoro caught Xiaolan, "Wait a minute, (even though he was found by you as if it were a joke, but...) he is a missing person! Don't call him, so as not to alert the snake!"
"Let's follow him first to see where he lives, and then notify Miss Hirota."
As expected of Kogoro Mouri, who has been a detective for many years, he thinks about things much more carefully than Xiaolan.
After the group quietly followed Kenzo Hirota back to their residence, they returned to the Mori Detective Agency as if nothing had happened, and then contacted the client, Ms. Masami Hirota.
As a result, just when Mouri Kogoro took off his coat and planned to sit for a while, Masami Hirota knocked on the door.
"Thank you, thank you, Mr. Detective! Thank you for helping me find my father!" Hirota Masami was panting at the door. It was obvious at a glance that she had come running over after learning the news.
This is really urgent.
Mouri Kogoro had no choice but to put on his coat again.
Next to him, the keen Conan noticed something was wrong with the makeup on Masami Hirota's face. Masami Hirota is obviously a student, but she wears the makeup of a working woman and wears a small suit, which feels a bit strange.
But Mao Lilan didn't think much about it and just assumed that Miss Hirota put on makeup because she was about to see her father.
Liquor:……
Why do you need to put on makeup to meet your dad? You even pretend to be an adult... There's something wrong with you, Xiaolan.
The innocent Conan didn't think too much, accepted Xiaolan's explanation for the time being, and kept the questions in his heart. But when everyone went out, Conan pulled Shiraijiu behind and asked, "What do you think?"
"See with your eyes." Shiraijiu teased Conan again lightly and walked past him.
No matter what she thinks, in short, if she has anything to do with you, she will die or be hurt. If this incident was really a simple missing person incident, her surname would not be Shirai.
I don’t know if it was homicide this time~ or suicide~
Because Shirai Kosheng had a locator on his body, Baijiu had no choice but to split his soul again and put it into Shirai Kosheng's body, letting him find a place to hide.
After Bai Jingjiu got in the car, he immediately fell asleep next to Mao Lilan.
…
In Mihua Town, in front of an unfinished building.
"...That's the way it is. Father, just for peace of mind, I'd like you to go in and have a look...just in case...just in case...you can help us exorcise the devil...I'm very grateful!"
A strong man who looked like a foreman led the workers behind him in the open space, and sat down in front of him with a young-looking but calm-looking man in a black gown, whose age was indistinguishable.
"You don't have to be like this, this is my responsibility." The priest sighed, his voice was low and gentle, and his tone was calm and calm, which made people feel comfortable and made people want to get close to him and trust him from the bottom of their hearts.
Because he was invited in a hurry, the priest only wore a black gown and a Roman collar around his neck, instead of wearing a chasuble, a shawl, and holding a Bible as seen at the festival.
However, this kind of clothing makes him appear taller and taller, with only legs from the neck down.
After bidding farewell to the workers who were grateful and pleading, very sincere but still unwilling to take a step forward to lead the way, the priest walked into the messy construction site in the holy sunshine.
In fact, the priest's visit this time had little effect on this supposedly haunted construction site.
Not to mention whether there are ghosts or not, nor whether the priest can exorcise ghosts. Even if there are ghosts on the construction site and the priest solves the problem, the unfinished building will still be unfinished. Unless you wait until new investors take over.
The main purpose of inviting the priest to come over is for the workers to feel at ease.
And the reason why we invited a priest instead of an onmyoji or a shrine maiden that everyone trusts is simply because it costs nothing to invite a priest...
Click... click... click...
The priest walked on the ground with gravel, and his footsteps echoed in the unfinished building, from bottom to top.
After a while, the footsteps stopped, and the building was so quiet that a steady breathing could be heard.
"Huh...huh..."
This is the sound of the priest's breathing.
In front of the priest, there was a slender gray figure sitting against the wall on the edge of the unfenced balcony, looking sideways at the scenery outside the building.
This man was wearing a scarf, covering the area below his nose. All he could see was that his nose was straight, his eyelashes were long, and his skin was pale.
Viewed from the side, it is impossible to tell whether it is a man or a woman just by looking at the upper half of the face.
However, judging from the long hair, flat chest, and his body language, this person is undoubtedly a male. From a female perspective, he is still a very handsome man.
But now the man seems a little confused.
