A few days later.

"Hello."

"Please, you have to ring a few times before you answer it! You don't answer it when you hear it, stupid!"

In the alley where I passed by school, Conan was so quarreled that he quickly took the phone number out of his ears.

"Sorry, Hattori, I was not convenient for answering the phone just now." He scratched his head and smiled, and said seriously: "How are you investigating about that matter?"

Hattori Heiji's tone became serious, "I asked Officer Otaki, who was on vacation, to help me check. He checked the student lists of all schools in Osaka for about 20 years, but he couldn't find a student named Mizuru Renana.

So, I had to take the photo that looked very much like Shui Wulianai, and asked two people who lived there for many years near Tongtian Pavilion, where the shooting location 10 years ago. They all knew that she was a current anchor, and no one had seen her when she was young."

"That's how it is." Conan's tone cannot be said to be disappointed or something, because with the rigorous style of the organization's work, the investigation was not unexpected.

"However, although no one has seen the woman, I gave me a look at the photo of Hondo Eiyu you passed on to me." Hattori Heiji said: "What's surprising is that some people said that he recognized the way this guy looked like when he was a child."

Conan showed joy on his face, "Really?"

"Yes." Hattori Heiji said: "It was an uncle who sold assorted fried rice pan next to Tontian Pavilion. He said he remembered that guy often came to eat with his father when he was a child."

"His dad?" Conan hurriedly said, "What kind of person is it?"

Hattori Heiji thought for a while, "I heard that he seemed to be a person who didn't talk much, but I only knew that his father seemed to have his surname Motodo because that's what others called him."

"Whoever calls him that?" Conan puzzled.

"Yes, that man sometimes takes his colleagues there." Hattori Heiji explained: "But a few years ago, I suddenly didn't go there again."

"Do you know what he does?" Conan asked.

"I don't know, but the current store manager said that the former store manager might know more, because they have a good relationship and often continue chatting after closing."

"Have you ever met the store manager? What are they talking about?"

"How could it be seen? He is dead." Hattori Heiji rolled his eyes.

When Conan heard this, he said conditioned reflex: "Is it related to members of that organization?"

"No, I died of illness." Hattori Heiji said helplessly, and he was completely convinced.

Conan coughed awkwardly, and then said, "So, your information will be found here?"

"Not only, the next thing is the key point." Hattori Heiji chuckled, "I heard that the former store manager had a very beloved grandson. The current store manager said that he seemed to say anything to the kid.

He studied in Osaka for four years and stayed here all the time. He seemed to visit that store often, so he should have met that man.”

"Then where is he now?" Conan said hurriedly.

"It is said that you run a model shop on your side. I asked his address and phone number. If you want to inquire, you have to be careful."

Hattori Heiji said seriously: "In my opinion, that Hondo Eiyu's father should not be a simple character. The work partners he brought to the store were almost every time different faces, and more than half were foreigners."

"There's another point," he said in a deep voice: "Everyone, including his father, was wearing black clothes that looked like they had just attended the funeral."

Conan inevitably thought of the people from that organization and subconsciously said, "Are you really sure that's the case?"

"Yes, and I heard that his dad doesn't like taking photos, so he doesn't know how he looks." Hattori Heiji said: "In addition, every time he goes to the store, people call him differently. He is called Tsunei and Ishikawa. Hondo is just one of them."

"So that's the case. Not talking too much should be because of being cautious." Conan analyzed.

"If that grandson had met his father in this hall, maybe he might..."

"It is likely to be under strict surveillance." Conan said solemnly.

"So, if you want to go, you have to prepare more." Hattori Heiji said, "Or wait for me to go with you, or call me a dirt."

"Qixuan." Conan hesitated for only a moment, and immediately nodded, "I understand."

"I'll notify me immediately if there is any news." Hattori Heiji was a little worried.

...

Conan did not call Chen Xing, but found him directly after school, not in front of the apartment.

At that time, Chen Xing had just come out of the convenience store and saw the primary school students waiting by the roadside, smiling and revealing two rows of little white teeth.

Chen Xing looked around.

"No need to see, Haibara is not here." Conan said.

Chen Xing picked up the shopping bag, "Do you want to drink?"

"Okay." Conan and him would not be polite, so they stretched out their heads and pulled them into the shopping bag.

Chen Xing watched the boy take a box of yogurt and touch two pieces of chocolate.

"It's over school?"

"Um."

"Passed by or?"

"I'm waiting for you." Conan bit the straw and looked up at the person around him, "Did you cooperate with Teacher Judy, that is, the FBI?"

"Yes." Chen Xing nodded.

"To be honest, I feel more and more that you are hiding something, and I can't see through you." Conan jokingly said, "But you have saved me so many times, and I don't know how to thank you."

Chen Xing opened a can of coffee and said calmly, "It's because you have too many things in your heart."

Conan laughed, "Why are you talking more and more like Haibara now? You don't read the recipe?"

Chen Xing glanced at him without saying a word.

"Okay, there is something important here this time, I want to ask for your help." Conan's face turned solemn.

Chen Xing took a sip of coffee and signaled him.

Conan said as he walked, roughly talking about Eiyu Hondo. Of course, he also essentially briefly explained the last incident of Mizunorina.

"That's how it is. He has been around Xiaolan and Yuanzi, approaching Maori Detective Office just to find out what happened to Mizuno and even want to get close to her."

"So, do you suspect he is from that organization?" Chen Xing asked.

Conan had a serious face and nodded, "That's right, that's why I asked Waltung to investigate this matter. I just had a little bit of a fuss during the day. He had sent me the address, and I wanted to go there at night."

"As long as it is related to that organization, it is very dangerous, just like the previous few times." Chen Xing said.

Of course Conan understood this. His contact with that organization was extremely dangerous and he almost lost his life, but the clue was right in front of him. How could he give up?
