"So... you just deliberately deceived me?"
Conan looked embarrassed and wanted to give the other party an anesthesia injection.
As a detective, most of the time, even if he doesn't think about it deliberately, he will be alert enough.
Just like in the previous case, after hearing Brother Geng point out that the murder weapon was the coins used to buy cigarettes, he immediately became aware of the murderer's shoes and the other party's criminal methods.
But sometimes this almost instinctive intuition can also cause problems, such as... someone uses Xiaolan to tease his emotions.
Hondo Yingyu was so stared at by Conan that his neck felt a little chilly. He hurriedly grabbed the opponent before he got angry and said quite sincerely:
"Don't be angry. I'm about to leave, so... I have no choice but to do this in order to understand the doubts in my heart. However, it is true that I fell in love with Maori at first sight. Please make sure to give her happiness."
"of course."
Conan stared blankly. Although he felt extremely unhappy after being tricked, he also knew that there was no point in pursuing it at this time, so he could only remind him with a serious face:
"Knowing my identity is not a good thing for you. Remember to keep it secret, otherwise once the news is leaked, it will only bring unimaginable danger to everyone..."
He paused and sighed: "At least, until that organization is completely eliminated."
"Don't worry," Bentang Yingyou blinked in this direction and answered quite confidently, "I'm working hard as a CIA agent."
Ha, ha ha... It's because of this that I feel even more worried... Conan silently cursed.
"Hey, by the way, I have one more thing to ask you."
Our hall Yingyou looked around, and after confirming that no pedestrians were paying attention to their conversation, he continued to lower his voice and said, "Does Teacher Ye also know your identity?"
"Ah?" Conan was startled...Did this guy discover some details that he didn't notice?
He quickly asked: "What's going on? Tell me."
"Eh? Isn't it?"
Yingyou, the main hall, was also a little confused by Conan's reaction, so he had to explain it exactly: "Because every time Teacher Ye is present, he is the one who breaks the news. Your look of doing nothing has made me think twice. I wonder if my reasoning is wrong.”
My reasoning is no better than Genichi's, so I'm really sorry for you... Conan wanted to hold his forehead and sigh, but in the end he resisted the action.
He calmed down, twitched the corners of his lips, and said with a dry smile:
"No... you really guessed wrong about this. Brother Gengyi doesn't know my identity. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been ignored every time I wanted to discuss things with him."
"Eh?! He, he doesn't know."
This hall Yingyou asked again in disbelief, "No way? Even I can see it...he actually doesn't know?"
I remember that Hattori guy asked me this question before... Conan paused for a moment and explained helplessly:
"That's because Brother Gengyi has been a genius since he was a child, and...as you said, I have almost no chance to show off in front of him, so he has never doubted my identity until now."
"Hmm, so that's how it is..." Our hall, Yingyou, had bean-eyed eyes.
However, when he thought about the several encounters he had with Ye Gengyi, he felt that this explanation was particularly convincing.
The kind of behavior that can be done smoothly and neatly no matter what you do is not something that someone like me who can't even prove his innocence can imitate.
Conan was also silent for a while and said:
"Actually, this is a good thing. I didn't intend to involve Brother Gengyi anyway. After all, my opponents are those guys who kill without batting an eye. In this regard, personal ability alone is not enough."
Hondo Eiyu nodded: "Speaking of which, is the news report that happened at Aido Central Hospital a few days ago true and..."
"Shh!"
Conan quickly interrupted and said seriously: "Don't discuss this kind of thing outside."
You know, more than 20 FBI agents died!
Until now, the police still believe that it was a terrorist attack caused by a bomb gang.
"Sure enough..." Bentang Yingyu understood Conan's reaction and sighed in a low voice: "No wonder they felt that the atmosphere they had some time ago was weird, and the blond haired agent seemed to be Judy. I bumped into her once She was crying, and then she never came to me again.”
"Teacher Judy?" Conan frowned, remembering the phone call that he couldn't get through, and asked, "When are you talking about?"
"Saturday the 14th."
Hondo Yingyou said: "...In the next few days, the detective named James also came to see me several times because I refused the witness protection system, which seemed to make him a little unhappy. However, I saw that he seemed a little tired. Besides, he doesn’t look too sad, so I don’t know exactly what happened here.”
"Well……"
Conan didn't know how to comment on this, so he could only change the topic and said: "Since you don't plan to accept the witness protection system, then don't explore the FBI anymore."
"Well, you're right." Bentang Yingyou nodded, and then said: "You don't really want to buy books, do you?"
"No," Conan said seriously, "Even you guys can figure out my identity, which proves that you still can't be careless about some things. To be on the safe side, I'd better go to the bookstore."
"..."
Hondo Yingyou was speechless... It seemed that he had indeed stimulated the high school detective's pride.
Immediately, they walked towards the bookstore together.
…
the other side.
After learning that Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko wanted to improve their English scores, at Haibara Ai's suggestion, they picked up Sydney from the pet store and finally decided to go to Dr. Agasa's house for tutoring.
In the living room of No. 22, 2-chome.
Haiyuan Ai helped several people make black tea and coffee, then hugged Xue Li and ran to read the newly bought magazine.
Although with her level, it is certainly no problem to help two high school students tutor English, but she prides herself on not being the stupid detective from Edogawa who loves to show off. For a subject like this that is obviously 'over the top' for elementary school students, Of course I won't rush to get the limelight.
Listening to the coffee table, Suzuki Sonoko occasionally said with surprise, "Saraichi is so versatile, it would be great if he could work for the Suzuki Foundation."
Hui Yuan Ai couldn't help but have doubts in her heart.
…
Time passed and it came to evening.
Because Mao Lilan had to go back to the office to help Conan and Mao Li Kogoro cook, she declined the invitation to stay and have dinner together.
Suzuki Sonoko also stood up and prepared to say goodbye and leave.
Ye Geng glanced at the sky outside the window, which had not yet completely darkened, and said, "I have other things to be busy with, so I won't see you off."
"No, no, brother Gengyi, it's already troublesome for you to help us with our homework." Mao Lilan waved her hand quickly.
"Yes! And if any kidnappers dare to follow us again, Xiaolan will definitely use her karate to show off the opponent!" Suzuki Sonoko slashed the air in front of her several times. .
"Well, see you later." Ye Gengyi stood in front of the entrance, watched the two people leave, then turned and walked towards the basement.
Hui Yuan Ai quickly put Xue Li aside, briefly cleaned the cat hair on her body, and followed in.
"There are some materials that need to be sorted out. We'll do it half an hour after dinner." Ye Geng said without looking back.
"oh……"
Haiyuan Ai responded. Seeing Ye Gengyi sitting busy at the console with a notebook, he moved a small bench and sat next to it without disturbing.
A few minutes later.
"Since you are free, please help me check if there are any bugs in the code in this program and optimize it."
Ye Gengyi took out the tablet computer from the drawer, opened the writing software, and handed it to a loli who looked a little idle.
"oh……"
Haihara Ai took it, lowered his head and fiddled with it, and asked, "Why don't you accept the Suzuki Consortium's invitation?"
"What?" Ye Geng turned his head and looked over.
"Actually, I know something about Baijiu..."
Hui Yuan Ai paused and whispered: "If we hadn't encountered financial problems, my parents would not have been taken advantage of by the organization."
"Well, I actually don't know much, but there's something I'm afraid you don't know."
Ye Gengyi said: "Before the organization, there were one or two chaebols who offered them an olive branch, but unfortunately... they were rejected."
"Eh?!" Hui Yuan Ai was stunned.
