On the taxi, Conan held his chin and pondered. The case was gradually becoming clear, but there were more clues to where they tied the old man...

Suddenly, the portable mobile phone in his pocket rang, and Conan quickly took out and put on the headphones.

"Shinichi, where are you now?"

As soon as I answered the phone, an inquiry came from the other side.

"Hey? What's wrong, Dr. Agasa?"

Conan asked in confusion, was it because the doctor discovered some clues?

"I just forgot to tell you something."

"What's the matter? Are there any other clues?"

"No, it was Xiao Ai who saw me cracking the disk password for you before and asked me what I was doing, so I told her about the case."

"Oh, so what?"

"Then she asked me if Shui Quanjun, did he know that you took Yuanzi to handle the case..."

"Well……"

"Then she went to the living room to call Shui Quanjun."

“…”

"Shinichi? Are you okay?"

"...I'm OK, it's okay, Doctor." Conan smacked his lips, "I have suggested calling Shuiquan... But, Sonoko refused..."

"...It's fine if you know it in your heart, then that's it, you can do it first."

Doudou~

There are numbers? What numbers?

busy?

Conan looked at the phone in his hand, and the feeling of a light on his back rose.

It should...isn't there any problem? I did propose to call Shuiquan, and did not take the two girls to the dangerous place, but took a taxi to the stop sign where the old man got off the bus to check.

So...it should be...no problem... right?

Suddenly, the phone rang again, and Conan hurriedly answered the phone again.

"Doctor, what's wrong?"

"Where are you?" What came from it was not Dr. Agasa's voice, but Tani Shuizumi's voice.

His voice was no longer as peaceful as he had when answering Haibara Ai's call, and was so cold and stiff.

"Hey? What's wrong? I'm in the taxi."

"Come back immediately."

"Hey? What...what happened?"

"You left the two girls and let them be in danger. What's wrong with you?"

"Uh... no, I'm on the way to investigate clues now, there may be dangers, so I left them at the bus stop, which should be safer there, right? Moreover, before I left, I told Xiaolan to call Uncle Maori and Officer Meguro..."

"There is danger there, turn around immediately." Tani Shuiquan ignored his explanation and said coldly, then hung up the phone.

Conan's eyes were dull and his face was confused. He scratched his head. In the end, he honestly asked the driver to turn around and go back.

However, the driver shook his head and refused.

"Why not?"

"Little brother, look at it yourself. How could you make me turn around with such a narrow one-way road?" The driver pointed helplessly at the front.

"Well……"

...

Ran Maori and Yuanko Suzuki came to the foyer of the bus stop. The former took out the phone card from the newly bought bag, inserted it into the public telephone, and handed the bag to Yuanko Suzuki beside him and started calling.

Suzuki Yuanko took the bag, carried it on her back, and looked around boredly.

"Moses Moses, Dad, listen to me..."

"Ah? What's wrong? I... I'm already drinking, don't call me, you guys play first." Maori Kogoro's speech came over.

"It's me, dad, listen to me..." Maori Ran's forehead bulged with veins.

"Ha? OK, have another drink~"

Maori Ran:(#`o')

"Forget it, he is already drunk and unconscious. I'd better call Officer Meguro." Ran Maori sighed, hung up the phone, and said helplessly.

"Moses Moses, is it Officer Meguro?..." Officer Meguro was obviously much more reliable than Kogoro Mori. He answered the phone immediately and listened to Ran Muri patiently about the case.

A few minutes later, Ran Mori hung up the phone again.

"How is it?" Suzuki Sonoko asked with her head leaning forward.

"Officer Meguri said he would come as soon as possible and let me stay by the phone and contact us at any time."

"That's it...hey..." Suzuki Sonoko sighed.

"What's wrong with you?" Mori Ran asked curiously.

"I did something stupid before, but now I don't dare to face Aquan..." Suzuki Yuanko said quietly with her head resting on Ran Mori's shoulder.

"What did you do?"

"Well... Anyway, it's just a stupid thing, which makes me feel very ashamed..." Suzuki Sonoko said hesitantly.

"Hey—?" Ran Maori became interested, "Let's talk about it~"

"No~ want~" Suzuki Yuanko hummed and hung herself on Mori Ran, "How should this matter end?"

"You don't tell me the specific situation, I can't give you any advice..." Ran Maori touched Suzuki Sonoko's head.

"Hmph~" Suzuki Yuanko hugged Ran Mouri tightly and put her head on her neck.

"Ah, really, let me go, the weather is very hot." Ran Maori pushed her head helplessly.

"Oh~ You actually dislike me, Xiaolan, at night, they have finished taking a shower, and they are accompanying you to find some mysterious old man who disappeared. You actually dislike me~" Suzuki Yuanko complained exaggeratedly.

Ran Mori held his forehead and was unable to resist her best friend's slut.

"Shenzi, why are you still wearing stockings?"

"Hmm? What's wrong?" Suzuki Yuanko let go of Ran Mori, raised her legs, and looked at the black stockings on her body.

"You are wearing leather shoes..."

"Ah! Yes, if you wear stockings and leather shoes, your feet will..." Suzuki Sonoko was shocked, "It should be too late to take off the stockings now, right?"

"Probably..." Ran Maori said uncertainly. The few people had been running for so long. The weather was hot and sweating a lot. Maybe they were out of help.

Suzuki Yuanko hurriedly held the wall and took off her shoes, then reached out to take off her stockings.

However, the previous scene suddenly emerged in my mind.

“This thing is very precious.”

"It's very precious from any perspective. So you have to wear it every day."

"Your safety is very important, much more important than you think. So, remember to wear it every day and protect yourself."

"I have never seen Brother Shuiquan feel confused, and I don't want to see him like that."

Suzuki Sonoko's movement stopped, she slowly lowered her feet and put on her small leather shoes.

"What's wrong?" Maori Ran asked strangely.

"It's nothing, I just suddenly don't want to take it off. If my feet are stinky, then my feet are stinky." Suzuki Yuanko said with a hint of tenderness.

“???”

"The room is too stuffy, you can wait here first, I'll go outside for some breath." Suzuki Yuanko's gentleness just disappeared, she said with a smile, then turned around and walked out.

"Hey??? Wait, Yuanzi, isn't she?"

Ignoring Ran Maori's complaints, Suzuki Yuanko pushed open the glass door, and fresh air was approaching her.

It had just rained during the day, and a smell of soil and grass spread around. However, this rainy day still seems too stuffy and humid, and even the air outside makes people feel stuffy.
