In the photo, there is a little girl with a bright smile holding a dolphin doll. She has brown hair, wearing a pink vest and light blue shorts. She looks to be about seven or eight years old.
That's when everyone saw the content of the photo clearly.
Conan and Heiji showed expressions as if they had been beaten to death.
The two looked at each other with great understanding, and then asked almost at the same time:
"So? When did she disappear?"
"Uh... it was probably yesterday," Toyama Yawa was startled and said in an uncertain tone, "I don't know the specific time."
yesterday?
Hattori Heiji keenly captured this time point and was a little strange: "What? Didn't you ask? It's probably OK, such as morning or afternoon..."
"No, after I got the photo, I came directly to find you." Yuan Shan and Ye answered matter-of-factly.
"Oh, I really lost to you..." Hattori Heiji sighed, "Forget it, you should take us to see President Tabuse again."
"Can't we just have photos?" Yuan Shan and Ye blinked, seemingly not inheriting their father's investigative genes at all.
"Of course," Hattori Heiji explained: "She disappeared yesterday. At least she needs to find a place to spend the night. And she just appeared near Yanagino Onsen, which means she didn't go somewhere last night. The family of someone we know went to a nearby temple, so we first went to her family to understand the situation, and then we knew where to go to investigate in the future!”
"Wait, wait a minute..."
Toyama and Ye calmed down their thoughts, "You said Hina just appeared near Yanagi Hot Spring?"
"Yes, Sister Xiaolan was chasing her and then disappeared," Hattori Heiji shrugged, "So there should be two people we are looking for now."
Xiaolan also... Yuanshan and Ye's eyes widened.
"Hey! Osaka boy, what do you think happened to my daughter?!"
Mouri Kogoro's surprised voice came from behind.
"She is missing, and the phone call cannot be reached..." Hattori Heiji blurted out, and added 0.001 seconds before the other party's mood fluctuated violently: "But we have found some clues."
"Eh? A strange disappearance case in a hot spring resort? It's starting to get interesting~"
The freelance writer named Tang Yuan Xinyi did not manage his expression at all, showing the characteristic of unscrupulous media people who are not afraid of causing trouble, not afraid of public opinion, only afraid of not being popular.
As he spoke, he took out his camera and pointed it at a few people, as if to capture a few photos called 'worry'.
"Snapped!"
"Click..."
At this time, a fair and slender hand reached out and snatched the camera away before the shutter sound sounded.
Ye Gengyi casually pulled out the SD card, and within less than 5 seconds, he took back the nanorobot used to cover his fingerprints, threw the camera back, and said:
"It is illegal to take photos without others' permission. I have confiscated this. If you have any questions, please go directly to my lawyer to talk to me."
Conan: "..."
Haibara Ai:"……"
Although, but... It seems that among all the people present, you are the only one who has the least position to say such a thing, Brother Gengyi, right?
"You..." Tang Yuanxin's face darkened, but due to the difference in physique and temperament between the two parties, he finally chose to follow his heart.
Mouri Kogoro stopped directly in front of him and said: "Okay, the personal interview ends here!"
"How is that possible?!" Tang Yuanxinyi was still a little surprised, "I have already reported it to the editorial department!"
"My daughter is missing," Mouri Kogoro said with a focused look and a serious expression, "I'm sorry, that's what happened."
"But, this is also a big event. Please let me do the special feature anyway..."
"You're so annoying!"
Before Tang Yuan Xinyi finished speaking, he was rudely interrupted by Mouri Kogoro: "This is no longer within the scope of our agreed leisure vacation!"
Huh... Tang Yuanxin curled his lips in displeasure.
Mouri Kogoro said so, but there was nothing he could do.
After all, a media person like him who only wants to stir up the popularity without caring about the authenticity of the topic does not need too much black material. If he is sued by the other party's lawyer and goes to court, it can be said that there is not even a half chance of winning.
As soon as Tang Yuanxin left, Mouri Kogoro immediately asked: "Tell me quickly, what clues do you know?"
"As we walk, let's go find President Tian Busi first."
Hattori Heiji was about to let Toyama and Ye take the lead when his eyes suddenly moved down and fell on the children of the Youth Detective Team at their feet.
...When someone else's daughter goes missing, and if you bring a bunch of children who have nothing to do with the incident, you don't have to think about it, and you know that the other party will be disgusted, right?
After watching a certain black man finish speaking, he just stood still.
The quick-thinking people present, such as Ye Gengyi, Conan, and Kogoro Mouri, who would intermittently activate his wits whenever his family or friends were in crisis, quickly realized this problem.
However, it is obviously inappropriate to leave the children here just like this, especially when a missing child case just occurred nearby.
But if you take them there...
"I'll stay and call if you need anything." Ye Gengyi didn't bother to watch them struggle.
Although this incident may appear to be just a missing child on the surface, since it involves the profession of 'president' with a mortality rate of over 68.33%, it might be another murder case.
Solving the case, chasing the murderer, taking notes... Ye Gengyi had almost anticipated what they were going to do all day today.
So instead of messing with the past, it's better to find a suitable reason to relax in this hot spring resort.
As for the three children running around and being disobedient?
Ye Gengyi remembered that he said 'stay' and 'call if you have anything to do', but there was no guarantee that he would take good care of them. Besides, with these three children, who could guarantee that?
...Well, let the little radar watch them later.
"Then leave it to you, Saraichi." Mouri Kogoro said.
"Yeah." Ye Geng nodded.
"I'm sorry to bother you, Brother Sarada. If I have any clues, I will contact you as soon as possible..." Hattori Heiji patted his chest to confirm.
Please be sure not to do this... Ye Gengyi didn't want to pay attention to him.
"Okay, little devil, come with me." Hattori Heiji said, and directly called Conan again.
"Eh? Why can Conan go with you..."
Worried not by scarcity but by inequality, the young trio resolutely refused to obey.
"Because his leg is injured." Hattori Heiji casually found a reason, "I'm going to take him there to rest."
Thanks, Hattori... Conan is grateful.
Maori Lan disappeared, and his mood was not much easier than that of Maori Kogoro.
If he really wanted to be left here, he would probably be the first to find an opportunity to slip away.
