Chapter 55 Because of Xiaolan......

Conan asked with his hands in his pants pockets, "So, why are you pretending to be me?"

"Well...because Xiaolan."

Conan was shocked, but fortunately Tanizumi continued to talk.

"The disagreement between parents and the long-term loss of contact with her childhood sweetheart boyfriend has been affecting Xiaolan. As Xiaolan's best friend, Yuanzi has been worried about her. As Yuanzi's boyfriend, I also worry about Yuanzi's concerns. Isn't this very reasonable?"

Gu Shuiquan took a sip of water, leaned against the sofa, looked down at Conan slightly, and said in a clear manner, clear logic.

This worry chain is normal, especially in some bubble dramas of love-hate entanglement...

Conan didn't respond, his big face was full of disbelief.

"Or, you can also understand that I am trying to save the favor you rescued Yuanzi and me from the sea last time, so I used this method to help you hide your identity. Aren't you almost unable to cover it up recently?"

"This is indeed a matter of fact, but why do you seem to know that Aunt Concubine Yingli would be attacked from the beginning?" Conan asked with a serious face.

"I didn't know when I went there. I originally planned to go to the detective office to find you, but I happened to see you hurrying away.

It’s not easy to pretend once, I don’t want to do it again, so I just follow you.

When I arrived at the door of the ward, I happened to meet you discussing the case. Since I appeared as Shinichi Kudo, it would be too abnormal if I didn’t interfere in the investigation of the case."

Gu Shuiquan said in an orderly manner.

"So, you just heard a few words of the case, looked at the Western Sword as evidence and then came to the truth?" Conan said suspiciously.

"And the name of Officer Meguri on the door sign." Tanizumi added for him.

"Even if this is added, it is impossible to deduce the truth, right? I didn't even get a clue."

"I said, are you underestimating the world? The world is so big, and it is a surprise that there are people who are better than you? Just talking about the monster Kid, you have never caught him, right?" Tani Shuizumi put his hand on Conan's head and stared at his eyes and said.

"What's more, others don't understand, you should see that I did not use your detectives' methods to solve cases, but more of the imagination and association ability required by mystery novelists.

Don't you say that you not only claim to be unmatched in the field of detectives, but you also feel that you are at the top of the novelist field? Even your father, Mr. Yusaku Kudo, wouldn't say such arrogant words?"

Conan was speechless, this guy was talking so much...

"I never thought so, just think you really saw through the truth in such a short time, but how do you explain the playing cards you carry with you and the right call Aunt Mile at the right time?

Don't justify it, I noticed that you looked at the watch once when you were in Officer Megumi's room, and looked at it again before entering the phone booth, and then picked up the phone, which obviously knew in advance that Aunt Mili would be attacked by a prisoner."

Conan looked at Gu Shuiquan with bright eyes, as if he was waiting for the prey to reveal his flaws, so as to give a fatal blow to the hunter.

"Where do you think my disguise props come from?" Gu Shuiquan asked back.

"Blame the thief Kid?" Conan narrowed his eyes and came to a conclusion after thinking for a moment.

"Yes, while I was learning disguise from him, I also learned some card magic, so I brought cards to practice easily." Gu Shuiquan responded with ease, "As for what you call knowing that Aunt Mile will be attacked in advance, there is no way to talk about it, right?"

"How do you say this?"

"You said it myself. I saw me looking at my watch in the ward, but if you recall carefully, it was already after I inferred that the Western sword symbolized K of spades, and Uncle Maori also agreed that the person the prisoner wanted to revenge was him?"

"No, no, you were looking at Uncle Maori if he was the watch that Murakami hated the most. At that time, they had not answered yet!" Conan grabbed the flaw and said excitedly.

"Oh, it was my tongue-in-law. Even the watch I looked at at that time was normal."

"Are you trying to say that you had predicted this situation in advance before Uncle Maori admitted it?"

"Is this unreasonable? It is normal to predict possible situations in advance and then plan the response methods?"

"Then what are you waiting for when looking at the watch?"

"Of course I'm waiting for Xiaolan's mother to go to work," Gu Shuiquan said naturally, "I only know the phone number of her law firm, so I have to wait until she arrives at the Concubine Law Firm before someone can answer the phone."

Without waiting for Conan to ask, Tani Shuizumi continued: "As for why I have the phone number of the Concubine Law Firm, it was because I had some legal issues before and wanted to consult, so I found the phone number and working hours of the firm online."

"Uh..." Conan thought carefully and seemed to be no problem. After analyzing it this way, it was reasonable. In this way, he felt abnormal only because Gu Shuizuki was too fast, so he subconsciously felt that there was something wrong?

But no matter what, Gu Shuiquan's series of actions today are too smooth and too calm... Well... this should be fine, he usually does...

Seeing Conan finally quit, Gu Shuiquan shook his head and sighed slightly, "Why? I didn't think about being sarcastic or hitting you, but you insisted on coming over and asking."

Gu Shuiquan did these things to repay favors.

The existence of human favors really makes Gu Shuiquan very uncomfortable. In the past, if someone showed good intentions, he should do what he should do instead stay away from the other party, rather than repaying the other party's kindness.

And Ran Maori and Conan are not ordinary existences. They will not be affected by the halo of bad luck. If they still treat staying away as kindness as before, they will be really lonely and deceiving themselves.

Since this time I had the opportunity to save Conan and Ran Mouri to help ask for the favor of Yusu, Tani Mizuto simply did it.

Disguised as Shinichi Kudo, he slightly relieved Ran Mori's lovesickness, saved Conan and performed well in front of his father-in-law and mother-in-law. After this trick, he would have paid off.

Gu Shuiquan knew that he could make such a clear calculation, which might seem awkward and strange and alienated. After all, how can people get along with each other clearly?

However, except for the Garden, he didn't care about the opinions of others. So, since he felt that favors were a burden, it would be fine to go.

As for whether the other party knew that he had returned the favor, he didn't care at all, and it was just for his own peace of mind.

But I didn't expect that Conan would have to add extra difficulty to him, and if this little guy was not protruding his head and asking questions, it would be much easier.

"Then what did you come to Dr. Agasa's house for?"

"I ordered something with Dr. Agasa before, so I'll check the progress."

"Last time you came with me, did Dr. Agasa help make something?"

"No, those have been taken away. This time I'm here to see how the milk tea machine that Dr. Agasa asked for help to make."

"Milk tea machine?" Conan looked confused.
