"Eh?"
Suzuki Jiroji was stunned for a moment. After a moment, the anger dissipated as if his face had changed. He grinned and said: "Ah, yes! Look at my memory, then come to my room first."
Conan watched Suzuki Jirokichi, the maid, and the bodyguard walk to the bedroom, and stopped wiping his head with a towel.
strange……
"strangeness."
Huh?
He was about to speak.
Beside him, Ye Gengyi said one step ahead of him: "Yuanzi, does Consultant Suzuki rarely go out recently?"
"Um……"
Suzuki Sonoko recalled briefly, nodded and said: "From what you said, brother Gengyi, uncle seems to rarely go out these days."
"Is it possible..."
Ye Gengyi nodded slightly, but suddenly stopped at the critical moment and said no more.
This naturally aroused the curiosity of a group of people.
Thinking of the two notice letters one after the other and Suzuki Jirokichi's recent abnormal behavior... Conan couldn't help but ask:
"Brother Gengyi, did you discover something?"
"It's nothing important."
As usual, Ye Gengyi made a perfunctory remark and changed the subject: "Leave the treasury to me and Mr. Maoli, Xiaolan, Conan's clothes are wet, in case he catches a cold, please take him to the bathroom and wipe it down."
"It doesn't matter to me!"
Conan asked: "Brother Gengyi, even if it's not something important, why don't you tell us about it? Maybe we can find some clues..."
He felt like he was just a little closer to the truth.
"yes!"
Suzuki Sonoko nodded in agreement, "I really want to know what happened to uncle."
Hearing this, Maori Kogoro and Maori Lan also cast curious glances.
"..."
Ye Gengyi was silent for a moment, then lowered his voice and said: "...Well, since you all asked this, I think..."
"Hmm..." The four people raised their ears.
"Consultant Suzuki is a very responsible person, so... I think he may want to have children." Ye Gengyi said.
"ha?!"
The sound of surprise echoed through the corridor.
In addition, after hearing this 'explosive' inference, the slightly dull expressions of the four people immediately attracted Nakamori Ginzo's sideways glance.
However, due to his responsibilities and the attraction of Kaito Kidd, he did not come over.
"Low-key."
Ye Geng continued calmly: "If this matter gets out, Suzuki Consultant will definitely make the headlines tomorrow."
Hmm...it's just that Suzuki Jirokichi will definitely not record it in his autobiography.
"But...this seems...unlikely..."
Suzuki Sonoko subconsciously wanted to deny this speculation, but could not think of a suitable reason for a while.
Next to him, after experiencing a brief shock, Conan rolled his eyes.
Before he could complain.
Ye Gengyi naturally expected this reaction from several people, and continued without any pause:
"It's just a guess. There is no evidence. So I didn't say it at the beginning. It's not an important thing."
So...how did you guess it?
Several people's curiosity was aroused again.
The same goes for Conan. He kept his mouth shut for fear of affecting someone.
However……
Ye Gengyi still glanced at him and said bluntly: "Children don't have to listen to this kind of thing, right?"
Conan: "..."
I... damn... I'll go back to Haiyuan and ask for the antidote. If I don't give it, I won't leave!
"Little Guitou, go, go, go..."
Suzuki Sonoko symbolically waved Conan away, then withdrew her gaze and said, "Brother Genichi, tell me quickly."
The old tree is blooming!
If such breaking news is true, she will definitely consider whether to tell her parents based on the situation.
Ye Gengyi remained unmoved and continued to stare at a certain detective boy.
"Ahem, um... Conan, why don't you go over there and play for a while first?" Mao Lilan, whose Bagua Soul was also in a burning state, advised.
"That's right! It's eight hundred years too early for you kid to hear such talk!" Mouri Kogoro rolled up his sleeves, as if he was ready to take action at any time.
Let me go! Let me walk!
Conan turned back three times with an angry expression on his face... He had sticky coffee stains on his body and cold wet clothes. He felt that not only was he unlucky today, but he was also targeted!
Using a topic that sounds absurd but very attractive, further disrupts the detective boy's thinking and ensures that he will neither get too much information from himself nor have time to sneak into Suzuki Jirokichi's bedroom and eavesdrop. …
Ye Gengyi listed it from the perspective of "I didn't know that Suzuki Jirokichi asked Kaitou Kidd for help":
"There are three reasons... First, I heard from Sonoko before that consultant Suzuki's pet dog 'Lupin' was sent to the hospital because he was feeling unwell, but the consultant rarely or even hardly went out during this time, right? ?”
"Sh-Should it be 'Lupine'..." Several people were shocked.
"Perhaps he has passed away, or he may have been hospitalized."
Ye Gengyi continued: "If it's the latter, then I'm overthinking it, but if it's the former, it involves the second reason I'm going to talk about next..."
He paused, looked at the other end of the corridor, in the direction of Suzuki Jirokichi's bedroom, and said:
"Consultant Suzuki suddenly and abnormally started recruiting workers. You all saw it...except for the bodyguards who have some abilities, neither the assistants nor the maids are up to standard in terms of business."
"Ah...I know!"
Mouri Kogoro suddenly realized: "No wonder he suddenly lost his anger just now and asked the maid to go to his room first..."
It has to be you, tool man...
Ye Gengyi controlled his emotions and said in an analytical tone: "Yes, this is the third reason I want to say. Consultant Suzuki must have something that is difficult to talk about, right? Otherwise, I can't imagine what he is busy with." 'The bodyguards and assistants can't 'help', but a clumsy maid is required to do it?"
this……
It seemed... very reasonable... and the three people were convinced.
As soon as Ye Geng finished burying the 'seed', he changed the topic and pushed the question into the ambiguous boundary again, saying:
"Of course, I've said it before, this is just a guess, there is no substantial evidence...or maybe it's all just a coincidence. Consultant Suzuki really has something and wants the maid to help."
"Well……"
Suzuki Sonoko hesitated for a moment, "Speaking of which, uncle seems to have arranged for all the other housekeepers and maids to go to the house at the back these days..."
Only a very reliable bodyguard, a brainless assistant, and a stupid maid are left...
One is for sentry, one is for running errands, and the other...
"..."
Suzuki Sonoko, Mouri Kogoro and Mouri Lan looked at each other and an idiom came to mind.
——You will get stronger when you are old.
