However, I still somewhat ignored this boy's curiosity. He even wanted to come over to see the taste of the unfinished drinks that were placed on the table.

Judging from the conversation between Maori and his daughter, they made an appointment with the client to discuss the entrustment at the sporting goods counter on the third floor.

In this case, it has nothing to do with the first floor where you are.

Next, you can continue to wait for the arrival of "Chiba" on the first floor with peace of mind.

…

Conan, Maori and his daughter took the elevator to the third floor. Looking around, they found that the entire third floor was actually a sports goods counter.

The client did not specify which counter on the phone, so the three of them could only start looking at the first counter one by one.

"The mystery of the long red T-shirt? Do you mean someone is going to solve this mystery?"

"About that. It should be after noon today. Has such a person ever been here?"

"Um, this... shouldn't be there, right?"

The clerk looked confused, obviously doubting Kogoro's statement.

Mouri Kogoro also had an embarrassed smile on his face. It was all because the client didn't explain clearly, so he had to go to all the stores to ask questions.

Conan, who was standing behind him with his hands in his pockets, had no idea how to find the client quickly.

At this moment, he heard a Japanese conversation with an accent coming from the counter behind him.

"I would like to ask, has this man come here to buy clothes recently?"

Judy was standing in front of the counter, folding half of the photo of herself and Akai Shuichi when they were lovers, and showing Akai Shuichi's half to the clerk.

But after the clerk took a look, he frowned and shook his head.

"I do not remember……"

"Please think about it again, this is very important to me!"

"...But even if your guest says so, I really have no impression..."

Once again receiving a negative answer, Judy's shoulders drooped in disappointment.

Although it was concluded that Akai Shuichi might come here to shop, and based on Akai Shuichi's clothing, it was speculated that he would wear sportswear that facilitates various difficult movements, it was still not easy to find him.

These store clerks are not police officers, and there is no need to remember every customer who comes to shop.

Especially Akai Shuichi doesn't look like a foreigner, and the shop assistants here are mostly older ladies who are over the age of dating, so no one remembers him.

When will we find out if this continues...

When Judy was a little confused, a voice behind her woke her up.

"Teacher Judy?"

Judy was shocked and looked back, only to realize that it was Mao Lilan who was talking to her.

"Xiaolan?!"

"You..." Judy saw Kogoro Mori and Conan next to her again, and changed her words: "Why are you here?"

Mao Lilan stepped forward and said politely: "My father's client requested to meet at this place, so Conan and I followed him."

"Teacher Judy, look at you, are you looking for someone?"

"I……"

Judy didn't know how to explain it for a moment, but luckily Kamel came up and spoke in time to round off the lie.

"Actually, he's my colleague... We came to Japan together, but he seemed to have just lost his way around here..."

"Hello, my name is Andrey Kamel, I am Judy's friend in the United States."

Facing the tall and unfriendly Kamel, Mao Lilan and Conan were a little surprised for a while.

After experiencing the last full moon incident, both of them knew that Judy's true identity was the FBI.

If Kamal is Judy's friend from the United States, then his real identity is most likely the FBI.

Intuition told Conan that when these two people appeared in the mall looking for someone, things would definitely not be simple.

Just when Conan was about to ask a sideways question, another pair of figures came over not far away.

"Xiaolan, Conan."

The two of them turned their heads following the voice and found that it was Toru Amuro...and Subaru Okiya who was sitting in a wheelchair.

"Mr. Amuro, and Mr. Okiya?"

Xiaolan was a little surprised and walked up to talk to the two of them.

Judy next to her recognized that this was the suspected gay couple in the restaurant, and was a little surprised. She bent down and asked Conan in a low voice.

"Cool kid, do you know these people?"

Conan replied in a childlike voice: "Well, they are my cousins ​​who live near Dr. Agasa's house. Mr. Amuro was Mr. Qin's assistant before."

"So this is ah……"

Judy then thought of Qin Zhibo, whom she had not contacted for a while since Akai Shuichi disappeared.

When Shuichi Akai was first discovered missing, the FBI wanted Vince Chin to provide help.

But James said that Qin had returned to the United States, so he put the idea aside for the time being.

As a result, until now, the FBI has not exchanged opinions with the former FBI ace agent regarding the disappearance of Shuichi Akai.

Just when Judy was thinking about whether she could take some time to talk to Qin about this matter, Toru Amuro pushed Subaru Okiya over.

"By the way, young lady, I just heard that you seemed to be looking for someone?"

"Actually, to tell you the truth, my hobby is being a private detective. If you don't mind, I can provide some help."

When the careless Xiaolan heard this, she quickly said happily for Judy: "This is great! Mr. Amuro's reasoning ability is also very powerful!"

However, facing this exciting proposal, Judy smiled slightly and shook her head.

"Sorry~ My companion is only temporarily lost. We will find him soon, so I won't waste your time..."

"Xiaolan, cool kid, let's take the first step."

With that said, Judy and Kamel walked towards the other side of the corridor.
