Rebirth of Conan as a Detective

Chapter 37 Holiday trip to Izu

One week later, Izu Princess Hotel’s private beach.

Gao Cheng was lying on the beach chair in shorts, gazing around under the sunglasses.

Under the cloudless clear sky, a sea breeze occasionally blows up the heat waves that hit people. The heat is a little hot, but the heat is just right. During this summer vacation, the beach is full of people, young ladies in bikinis. There are many more, they are all here to cool off.

Gao Cheng’s gaze followed a young lady passing by, falling on the swimsuit girls who were playing wantonly in the sea, and the water splashing on the chest stretched the swimsuit tightly…

“Oh, my body is really good, I didn’t make a mistake this time!” Suddenly a familiar uncle sounded beside Gao Cheng, his brows twitched, and he turned his head with an unpredictable feeling, and he saw Maori Kogoro’s color. The look of squinting.

Since this guy is here, then…

Gao Cheng continued to look around with a black face, and soon saw Mo Lilan who was holding Conan on the other side. Mo Lilan wearing a blue swimsuit was fair-skinned, and his figure was very capital. You could also see Conan’s blushing face.

“This kid…”

The good mood disappeared all of a sudden, why can I meet this guy every time? It might be a hot holiday on a rare holiday. If I travel next time, can I only go to Hokkaido?

Taking advantage of the fact that Kogoro Mori and his party did not notice him, Gao Cheng carefully packed his things, and quickly left the beach pretending not to know him.

In the lobby of the hotel, Gao Cheng was checking in at the front desk while waiting for the other people in the tour group.

He also received everyone’s list and room number just like everyone else.

Including him, there are a total of 11 people in 7 groups. Two of the doctors in one group actually have Dr. Ari. As for the others, they are either programmers, software company presidents or investors, and math teachers… In general, he is more likely to find the host, Duke of Dark Night.

Reasoning cannot be made up for by observation. What he lacks is just the reasoning ability to sort out intricate clues like Conan, so that no one can find it.

A man wearing gold glasses and holding a computer walked aside, his thin face was covered by bangs, looking a little gloomy.

“Are you the Duke of Dark Night?” the man suddenly asked.

“what?”

Gao Cheng looked at the man suspiciously, and scanned the computer to open the stopwatch timer program: “Are you also in a tour group?”

“0.5 seconds, to be precise, 0.35 seconds,” the man said with a smile and saved the data. “It’s really an amazing reaction. It is the shortest reaction time among us. People’s reactions to sudden problems are often the most true. It seems You have the best chance of being the Duke of Dark Night.”

“what?”

Gao Cheng looked inexplicable: Please, you are so big, I noticed it before I walked to the side. Does it make any difference to ask any questions?

“I’m Shiro Konno in the 2002 room, a bank clerk,” the man smiled, “Are you the Kanadaichi who was accidentally pulled into the group? I cared about you in the group before…”

“Huh!” A man sitting in the hall with long hair behind, holding a can of beer, said drunkly, “Everyone of you asks this way, is it annoying, do you really think you can find the Duke of Dark Night in this way? I think you are the Duke of Dark Night!”

“Mr. Egen in Room 2101,” Shiro Konno glanced at the man behind him, “It seems that it took you 2.86 seconds to answer my question, but it’s not without suspicion, hey.”

Kogoro Mori walked into the hall and looked at Shiro Konno strangely. When he noticed Gao Cheng, his face sank: “Why are you here as a kid? Every time I meet you, it doesn’t seem like a good thing, it’s true.”

Gao Cheng half-opened his eyes, and suddenly thought of Dr. Aka, who hadn’t been there until now: “Wait, aren’t you here for the’Izu Mystery Tour’?

“Are you too?” Kogoro Mouri was taken aback, his mustache trembled, “It’s really bad, it’s rare to have free travel…”

“Free?” Gangwon grinned, “You’re too big, right? Before you find out the true face of the Duke of Dark Night, everything is still uncertain.”

“Huh?” Mouri Kogoro looked at Jiangyuan blankly, not knowing why, “Isn’t it free?”

“You are the Duke of the Dark Night, right?” Shiro Konno suddenly leaned behind Moori to ask, and only pressed the keyboard after Moori Kogoro reacted in a daze.

“Me?” Maori pointed at himself confusedly.

“3.04 seconds… it took you so long just to answer my question…” Shiro Konno raised his mouth and reminded him by the way, “Don’t you know? The room rate is only half prepaid…”

“I only paid half of the money?” Mouri paid no attention to what Shiro Konno said next, but rushed to the counter anxiously.

“Mr. Aka and three others, right,” the waiter explained after checking, “Your accommodation fee is indeed only half prepaid…”

Maori sweated on his face: “How come there is such a thing? Can you check it out again?”

“What’s the matter, Dad?” Xiaolan and Conan walked up and asked in surprise.

Maori asked Conan with an ugly expression: “Smelly boy, the hotel is only paid for half of the money. What is going on? Didn’t you say that it is free?”

Xiaolan didn’t expect such a thing, so he said: “At least half of it has been paid, and we will pay the other half…”

“But,” Mouri Kogoro looked back at Gao Cheng on the side, and whispered to Xiao Lan’s ear and said embarrassedly, “I didn’t bring so much money.”

“Senior, you are here too!”

Xiaolan also noticed Gao Cheng, greeted him, and happily said to Kogoro Maori: “Dad, can I borrow from Gao Cheng senior, maybe the senior has money…”

“Huh, let me borrow money from him, it’s better to kill me,” Mouri Kogoro said, unable to save face, and said, “Forget it, I’m going back to my room!”

“Ah? Dad! What should I do with the hotel room?” Xiao Lan yelled anxiously.

“I’ll lend it to you first,” Gao Cheng looked at the back of Kogoro Mouri leaving without a word, “I’ll pay it back to Tokyo.”

“Really?” Xiaolan breathed a sigh of relief, “Thank you so much, Kato Senpai!”

“Kyoto?”

Shiro Konno and a few other tour group members who happened to be here were taken aback.

“Isn’t it Kindaichi?”

“Um, haha,” Gao Cheng scratched the back of his head, “In fact, it is Jintian as soon as he can’t come, so let me replace him. My name is Kosei Joto, I’m a detective…”

“Detective, detective?!” The members of the tour group instantly changed their faces, and all their eyes focused on Gao Cheng.

“Uh, what’s wrong?” Gao Cheng hesitated to look at the group of people who were not right.

What the hell, how can I feel like a murder is about to happen…

“Couldn’t you be the Hyundai Left Character Kosei Ishito that has been appearing in newspapers recently, right?”

A couple came from outside, a very energetic young man with short hair, and a young woman with short hair and yellow chestnut. It was the young man who spoke.

“I have read your report, and I am still thinking about the day I can meet.” The young man smiled with piercing eyes.

“Are you?” Gao Cheng looked at the youth suspiciously. He felt an unusual temperament from the youth, and his bright eyes looked like those masters in the kendo arena.

“Are you…” Xiao Lan squeezed to the front with bright eyes, and said excitedly, “Are you Mr. Maeda Satoshi?!”

“Maeda Satoshi?”

Conan looked at Xiaolan like a fan, and stood in the middle without a trace: “Sister Xiaolan, do you know each other?”

“Of course!” Xiaolan said with a blush on her face, “He was a Japanese karate champion 6 years ago. I started learning karate because I admired him!”

talking, Xiaolan approached the young man again and said, “Hello, my name is Mao Lilan. I won a victory in the city convention a while ago! I didn’t expect to meet you in this place, I’m so lucky!”

“What’s the luck with this?” Conan looked upset and turned to Gao Chengdao. “Is the Karate champion very good?”

“It should be amazing,” Gao Cheng sat on the sofa and looked at the embarrassed young man, “At least much better than your Xiaolan…”

“Better than Xiao Lan?” Conan thought of Mao Lilan’s usual performance, his face even more depressed, “How does that compare to you?”

“How do I know, I don’t know how to do karate.”

“Aren’t you good at kendo?”

Conan has a blind eye: “I thought you were pretty good at all.”

“This…” Gao Cheng thought for a while, looked at Conan’s appearance, and suddenly teased, “Aren’t you jealous? Others already have girlfriends.”

“Ok?”

Conan followed, and it happened that Satoshi Maeda took the female companion next to him and introduced: “This is my fiancee Akiko Sayama…”

“Is a high school math teacher Gao Cheng looked at Akiko Sayama, and then glanced over the others present.

In addition to the bank clerk Shiro Imano, the programmer Tokoo Kohara, and Satoshi Maeda and Akiko Sayama, there is a glamorous mature woman, software company president Hideko Uejo, and an elderly computer company investor Kenichiro Kaneshiro and his servant Lin Jingjiang was also present.

All the people on this tour group have arrived, and one of them is the mysterious host “Duke of Dark Night”.

To be honest, he still doesn’t understand the purpose of the other party. With so many people in the tour group, even if everyone only prepays half of the room rate, it is still a lot of money.

Is it just fun to spend so much money? What’s more, there are mysterious computer programs that seem to be of great value…

“It’s really mean,” the drunk Gangwon Toshio half woke up, and walked past Gao Sung with a dissatisfaction expression, “I have to find a detective like you to replace him, huh!”

“But then again,” Hideko Kamijou glanced at Gao Cheng warily, and suddenly turned to Xiao Randao suspiciously, “You should be two doctors and a little girl in elementary school?”

Xiao Lan was not as embarrassed: “It was because they had no way to come, so they replaced us, and the man just now was my father Kogoro Mouri. He is not a doctor, and he is also a detective.”

“Mori Kogoro?” The expressions of the people present changed again.

“I, even the sleeping Moori Kogoro is here!”

“Isn’t this just right? Maybe it’s that the Duke of Dark Night’s people suddenly became a lot less.” Hideko Kamijou chuckled.

“But this way, the Duke of Dark Night will be more careful and harder to show his feet…”
