When we have time in the evening, let's have a good chat alone.

Thinking of this, Seriang's face turned slightly red.

Mao Lilan, who was standing opposite her, could see Seriang's nervous expression, and her right eyebrow frowned slightly.

Suspicious expression...

"Then, um, do you have anything to do with me? Xin, Xinyi..."

When Seriang answered the phone, his words were a little stuck because of nervousness.

But the first thing Conan said when he came up to her was that she couldn't stop him.

"Miss Sera, is your mother's surname also Sera?"

"Uh...huh?"

Sera's pure expression seemed to be frozen, and she didn't look like she was crying or laughing.

Conan on the other side also realized that the intention of this question was too direct, so he changed the question and continued to ask: "What I want to know is whether there is anyone in your family named 'Sera Elena'?"

Sera's pure pupils trembled slightly, "No, no..."

"Excuse me, what happened?"

"Nothing, it's just that there is a case here involving this person..."

Conan quickly ended the topic, "If you don't know, forget it. I'll hang up."

After saying that, he really hung up the phone.

Sera Masumi on the other side wanted to say more, but the phone was already beeping.

Mao Lilan looked at Shiliang's slightly startled expression and asked: "Xinyi, has he hung up the phone?"

"Um... I'll call you."

Seriang returned the phone to Mao Lilan, but the expression on his face still couldn't calm down.

Kudo Shinichi who was on the phone just now mentioned the name "Sera Elena".

Although she doesn't know who the owner of this name is, the surname "Sera" is not common in the UK, and is even extremely rare.

The name Elena is the same as the "sister outside the realm" that her mother once mentioned.

It can't be her, right?

…

University of Brightchester.

Conan and Kuroba Kaito walked out of the toilet and just returned to the conference room when they heard the latest investigation details from the police.

Sera Elena's family situation is relatively simple, with one pair of parents, but they passed away many years ago.

Apart from that, he has no other relatives.

According to the whereabouts known to the police, Sera Elena went abroad after graduating from the University of Brightchester, and her destination was the United States.

I never came back to the UK after that.

At least that's the case based on entry and exit records.

Bai Ma raised his chin and said thoughtfully, "Then who is the person who appeared here today?"

"Is it...a ghost?"

At this time, Conan reminded again in a childish voice: "She said she had been to Japan! And she also had children in Japan!"

"Japan?"

Hearing this familiar place name, Tan Baima showed a confident smile on his lips.

"If it were Japan, it would be easier..."

He took out his phone and dialed a number.

"Afu, please contact your uncle's research institute and ask them to help investigate a woman named 'Sera Elena'."

"...He is a British national, 47 years old, who once gave birth to a child in Japan."

"Yes, let me know the results immediately."

Seeing the white horse detective's calm expression, Conan couldn't help but frown slightly, thinking about who the hell is this?

Although he is a famous high school detective active in the UK, he seems to have quite a lot of connections in Japan...

Kuroba Kaito's eyes were full of disdain.

Tsk, he is indeed the son of the Japanese police chief...

After hanging up the phone, Hakuba turned to look at Conan and Kuroba Kaito.

"I believe there will be results soon..."

"You two, it's almost noon now. If you're interested, can we have lunch together?"

Kuroba Kaito looked at Hakuba Tan's meaningful smile and knew that the other party was not hiding any good intentions.

But just as he was about to refuse, Conan jumped excitedly and shouted "Yes!"

Kuroba Kaito glanced at Conan who was standing low without leaving any trace, and thought to himself: Did this kid do this on purpose?

Detective White Horse secretly remembered this series of micro-expression changes in his mind, but on the surface he still looked like a gentleman.

"Then please come with me..."

"It just so happens that I know a restaurant nearby that does good French food. We can chat while eating."

…

"A little hungry..."

After coming out of the London City Hall building, Qin Zhibo touched his shriveled belly and looked around subconsciously for something to satisfy his hunger.

Since I was in a hurry in the morning and my schedule was tight, I bought a hot dog at a roadside fast food restaurant throughout the morning.

But fortunately, things on my side are progressing relatively smoothly, and I didn't starve in vain.

I just saw the "Crimson Tears" safe and sound in the hands of Judy Hooper on the top floor of City Hall.

Ever since the incident in Japan, Judy Hooper has been following Qin Zhibo's instructions and wearing "crimson and the like" brooches everywhere she performs.

Nothing too unusual happened during this period.

The only unusual thing is that the Hobo Thaumaturgy Troupe's popularity has increased a lot compared to before they performed in Japan, and the audience is obviously much larger.

But this doesn't mean anything.

So, Qin Zhibo told her the information he currently had and told her to be more careful when performing.

At the same time, we must also be wary of the approach of the world's number one illusionist, Günter von Goldberg II.

Judy Hooper said that Günter never took the initiative to approach her, but that she had gone to Günter before.

At that time, she went to Günter to discuss using the top floor hall for rehearsals.

However, she did not see Günter himself. The person who received her was the female assistant of the world's number one illusionist, named Natsumi.

Speaking of Xia Mei, Qin Zhibo was also impressed by her.

This person is one of the twin sisters who once attacked the Egg of Memory, and is also what most people think of as the international killer "Shi Kaobing".

Their ancestor was the famous Russian demon monk Rasputin, and they both inherited the gray pupils of their ancestor.

It was also by eavesdropping on her conversation with Pu Siqinglan that Qin Zhibo learned for the first time that the boss of the zoo organization was called "Baron Hauptmann"...

Taking back his thoughts, Qin Zhibo now urgently needs to find a place to fill his stomach.

It doesn't matter if you eat well or not, Britain is a food desert anyway.

Just when he was thinking about checking the navigation system to see if there were any nearby restaurants, the phone suddenly rang.

Could it be that there is news from Kuroba Kaito?

Qin Zhibo picked up the phone and answered it, but what came from the phone was a woman's voice.

"Qin, where are you now? Do you have time?"

This voice is relatively cold, but it does not lose a hint of sexy femininity.

"Mary... I'm here in the city hall. I have time, but I'm preparing to solve the lunch problem now."

Mary replied coldly: "That's just right. I know a good restaurant. Come to Big Ben."

"We need to discuss our plans for the afternoon..."
