"Huh? I bought the wrong size... Is this someone Dr. Ali knows?" Conan asked.

"It can't be said that we know each other. I originally thought she would be an employee of Mantian." Dr. Ari hesitated for a moment and continued: "It's just that when I visited President Ishikawa in the morning, he said that because of the explosion, so We haven’t had time to send employees to visit us yet.”

"It's strange..." Conan subconsciously made an exaggerated childish voice, "Since Dr. Ali has never seen that person before, how could he mistake her for an employee of Mantian?"

As soon as a certain detective finished speaking, Dr. Ali felt the eyes of six eyes falling on him...

What's going on? He's just here to give gifts!

Moreover, this strange atmosphere and opening remarks...do you think of me as a prisoner?

Dr. A Li looked resentful.

Conan was the first to realize the problem and quickly changed his gaze: "..."

Sorry, I'm used to it...

"Because Gengyi brought Ms. Wei Meisi to visit, and when she introduced herself, she said she was an employee of Mantiantian, so I thought so." Dr. A Li explained.

It has something to do with Ye Gengyi...

Conan's curiosity surged, but before he could figure it out, he was picked up by Mouri Kogoro.

"Hey, the four-eyed brat, step aside."

After throwing Conan away, Mouri Kogoro straightened his collar and looked at Dr. Agasa, "So, doctor, do you want me to help you find the lady named Vermes?"

"Uh... no, President Ishikawa said it could also be employees from other branches. Although he is the president, not every employee knows him." Dr. Agasa scratched his head, "I originally wanted to ask more questions. Yes, but his phone seems to be busy all the time..."

"It hurts..." Conan, who was thrown aside, got up from the ground. He knocked down the clothing bag and the clothes inside were scattered all over the floor.

"Conan, are you okay?"

"I'm fine, Sister Xiaolan."

Conan squinted at a certain confused uncle. If these clothes hadn't been used as a buffer, he would have fallen badly.

"Hey...this dress seems to be a very popular style this year..."

Xiaolan noticed the V-neck business suit and picked it up, "I saw the same clothes when Sonoko and I were shopping in Shibuya today..."

"Exactly, it's just a piece of clothing." Mouri Kogoro said with a straight face: "And I gave a professional woman's dress to an old man who lives alone. Is there any misunderstanding by that Mantian employee?"

Hey hey...

Dr. A Li looks embarrassed. Is he still here?

"It seems there are clothes that children can wear."

Xiaolan continues to organize...

Dr. A Li said: "Yes, I happened to find these clothes suitable for you, so I am going to send them over."

"But wouldn't it be bad to do this..." Xiaolan hesitated, "I remember that V-neck business suit seemed to be priced at 400,000 yuan..."

"Four...four hundred thousand yuan?!" Mouri Kogoro was stunned and snatched the dress, "Really...can you really give it to us?"

"Dad! Please pay attention to me!" Xiaolan said with a correct outlook, "This gift is too expensive, we can't accept it."

"No problem..." Dr. Ali scratched his cheek, "I have obtained the consent of Ms. Wei Meisi..."

Dr. Ali thought about the amount signed in today's contract. Although four hundred thousand is a lot, it seems like it is nothing to Mantiantian.

"Xiaolan! It's rare for someone to show their sincerity and come to visit you. How can you not accept it!" Mouri Kogoro lectured.

"Dad, you are really..." Xiaolan put her hands on her hips and squinted.

"It seems to fit well..."

Conan's expression was solemn. Is it really just a coincidence...

"Why even Conan..."

"It doesn't matter, as long as you like it." Dr. Ali waved his hand, "Then I'll take my leave..."

"Wait a minute Doctor!"

A certain detective still had a lot of questions that he couldn't answer, so he stopped him quickly and whispered: "Can you tell me anything about the Mantian employee named Wei Meisi and the relationship between her and Ye Gengyi? Be more specific."

"Ah?" Dr. Ali thought for a moment, but still hesitated: "But I will go back soon..."

"Doctor, you can call Brother Gengyi to come over for dinner. What do you think, Sister Xiaolan?" Conan pretended to be well-behaved.

"Yes, after receiving such an expensive gift, the doctor should stay and have dinner before leaving." Xiaolan also said quickly.

"Okay." Dr. A Li nodded.

Ye Gengyi's phone call still hasn't been answered.

At the dinner table, when talking about what happened yesterday afternoon, Dr. Ali could not provide any more information.

After explaining the causes and consequences of Vimax buying the wrong gift.

Conan looked at those clothes and fell into deep thought again.

Adults, high school girls, and children... Even Aunt Fei Yingli, who is separated from Uncle Mouri, prepared gifts, as if they had investigated each of their situations in advance.

Reminiscent of the bombing at the Popcorn Hotel, and these tops and jackets, all in black.

Conan doesn't believe this is all a coincidence...

However, according to what Dr. A Li said, the Mantiantian employee named Wei Meisi did not look very familiar with Ye Gengyi.

According to common sense, how could an ordinary Mantian employee give out so many expensive gifts at once without the president's permission?

He seriously doubted the connection between that woman and the black organization he wanted to track down...

After the meal, Conan still reluctantly pulled Dr. Ali aside and asked: "Doctor, did they really not say anything else? For example, about the explosion of the Rice Krispies Hotel..."

"No, Geng Yi is the same as usual... and I saw that Ms. Vermes seemed to have a crush on Geng Yi, so she didn't get involved in the young man's affairs."

"Doctor..." Conan squinted at a guy who had no curiosity.

"Please, I'm not you..." Dr. Ali was about to complain, but suddenly hesitated: "If it was Gengyi, I should..."

"What's wrong, doctor?" Conan asked hurriedly, "Have you thought of any clues?"

"That's not the case." Dr. Ali looked a little embarrassed, "Speaking of which, after I put on new clothes, he took a few photos of me... If it was from that angle, I I remember that Ms. Wei Meisi was probably photographed accidentally..."

"Really, Doctor! Where are those photos?" Conan said excitedly.

Looking at the appearance of a certain detective, even though he knew that the other person did not know the contents of the photo, Dr. Ali still felt an inexplicable sense of shame...

"Of course the photos are on Gengyi's phone." Dr. Ali said with a resentful face, "Otherwise, I would have deleted them long ago..."

Those photos that are full of middle school atmosphere...
