Chapter 303: One trick is eaten all over the world
Chapter 303: One trick is eaten all over the world
In fact, Ai Haibara's expression was already somewhat tense when she heard Shuichi Akai and Mio Tokiwa's description.
Such a familiar technique.
Didn't that damn guy use the same method when he used his sister to get into the organization?
He adopted the alias Dai Moroboshi and pretended to be hit by his sister's car.
Then they got to know each other, became friends, and joined the organization in one smooth motion.
I never expected that he would use the same trick again, and even say it in front of me!
No, there's a slight difference; it's changed from letting a car hit you to letting a car hit someone else.
Can you rely on just one trick to succeed?
"Forehead……"
After being rebuked by Ai Haibara, Mio Tokiwa felt a little embarrassed for a moment.
"Ms. Miyano, your younger sister has quite a vivid imagination, or is this a deduction technique she learned from Mori-senpai?"
"I?"
Kogoro Mouri glanced at Ai Haibara, then pointed to himself in confusion.
How did you learn it from me?
I'm not familiar with this little girl at all.
Kogoro Mouri coughed twice, squatted down, and looked at Ai Haibara, speaking in a tone that was not as sarcastic as when he spoke to Conan.
After all, you can't treat your own child the same way you treat other people's children.
"Ai, is it alright if I call you that? We detectives rely on evidence and plausibility. Using coincidence as an excuse is a bit far-fetched, we..."
"Heh, so you stupid detective think it's perfectly reasonable for you to fall asleep while solving cases?"
Ai Haibara squinted at Kogoro Mouri, then turned her face away and retorted before he could finish speaking.
"me……"
Kogoro Mouri's face stiffened, and the corner of his mouth twitched involuntarily.
Can't this little brat learn to be as gentle and cute as the older sister next to him?
“Hey kid, I know about Xia Yajun’s situation. This attack couldn’t have been staged by him.”
"Furthermore, we have also had people verify that Xia Yajun is indeed a professional bodyguard who recently returned from overseas."
Tokiwa Mio bent down to explain to Haibara Ai.
Actually, she didn't need to say so much to a child, but she couldn't help it; she always felt that this little girl exuded a certain aura.
"Heh, a bodyguard who resigned. I wonder if he came back to find another deadbeat because he killed his previous employer."
Ai Haibara glared at Shuichi Akai again and said irritably.
She suddenly realized that as long as she didn't talk to Qi Ming, her ability to roast people was quite high.
Tokiwa Mio clenched her fists, forced a smile, and had the same thought as Mouri Kogoro.
Why is the little sister raised to be so mean when she has such a lovely and cheerful older sister?
"Haha, sorry, sorry, I was just kidding."
Qi Ming bent down and patted Ai Haibara's head, then turned his gaze to Shuichi Akai and smiled.
"After all, what are the chances of such a coincidence in the world? Don't you think so, Shuichi Akai?"
Shuichi Akai was still somewhat taken aback because Ai Haibara bluntly and directly exposed his plan.
Upon hearing Qi Ming's words, he didn't turn around for a moment, but immediately nodded.
"Of course, how could such a coincidence happen..."
Shuichi Akai's face froze instantly; only then did he notice how Qi Ming addressed him.
Moreover, he also realized that there was a trap in Qi Ming's words.
What a coincidence! He was referring to the fact that the supposed truth he just mentioned was a coincidence.
Or perhaps, the car accident was not a coincidence?
A hint of seriousness flashed across Hideaki Akai's eyes.
This currently unknown person seems to be quite meticulous.
It's fortunate that Qi Ming didn't know what Shuichi Akai was thinking.
He simply wanted to imply that what Ai Haibara said was just a coincidence.
It's always easier to talk to smart people; they can always conjure up a whole bunch of things in your mind.
"Akai Shuichi?"
The eyes of everyone present first fell on Qi Ming, and then shifted to Shuichi Akai.
Shuichi Akai, realizing what was happening, quickly composed himself and asked the others in confusion:
"Hey, why are you all staring at me like that?"
Tokiwa Mio frowned and asked Akai Shuichi with a puzzled look:
"Xia-kun, just now Ms. Miyano called you Akai Shuichi... what did that mean?"
"And what did you mean by 'it's not such a coincidence' earlier?"
"Shuichi Akai?"
Shuichi Akai remained calm despite the sudden suspicion in everyone's eyes.
He raised an eyebrow and repeated the name, then didn't explain further, simply saying calmly.
"I'm sorry, I just answered because I saw Ms. Miyano talking to me, I didn't pay attention to the name."
"As for the coincidence I mentioned, it's obviously a response to what this child said, since your assumption is also based on coincidence, isn't it?"
After clearly explaining the two questions logically, everyone nodded in understanding.
Shuichi Akai glanced at his watch and gave everyone an apologetic smile.
We can't talk to them anymore.
Ai Haibara harbors a great deal of resentment towards him, and who knows what she might reveal later that would arouse suspicion in others.
"Excuse me, everyone. Ms. Tokiwa, it's time to prepare for the show later."
"Oh, is it already this late? Let's go then, see you all later."
Seeing Shuichi Akai's departing figure, Qi Ming sighed.
"Ah, they escaped."
It's a good thing he just made a webpage for Shuichi Akai to show him.
Third-rate actor Shu Akai, who gained top-tier resources by hooking up with female celebrities, actually did this! .html
Conan glanced at Shuichi Akai's departing figure, then looked at Ai Haibara and Qi Ming.
It seems they don't get along.
So the enemy of my enemy is my friend. Maybe I can go and have a chat with Shuichi Akai later.
Conan isn't that easy to fool.
Although there is no evidence at the moment, he believes that what Ai Haibara said is the truth.
The name Qi Ming mentioned, Akai Shuichi, should undoubtedly be that man's real name.
But what exactly was that person's purpose in approaching Tokiwa Mio...?
Eh?
Conan's pupils suddenly shrank.
Shuichi Akai is one-eyed, so isn't that the one-eyed sniper Qi Ming mentioned to him last time?
That man is an FBI agent!?
"Sister Xiaolan, I need to go to the restroom!"
After saying something to Ran Mouri, Conan was about to rush out.
However, after taking two or three steps, he did not receive a response from Ran Mouri, so Conan turned to look at Ran Mouri again.
Ran Mouri was staring intently in the direction where Shuichi Akai and the others had left.
"...Sister Xiaolan, what are you looking at?"
Noticing Ran Mouri's unusual behavior, Conan suppressed his eagerness to find Shuichi Akai immediately and approached Ran to ask her a question.
Ran Mouri snapped out of her daze, squatted down, and rubbed Conan's head.
"It's nothing, it's just that I felt like I'd seen that person somewhere before."
"Where have I seen you before? Are you sure, Sister Xiaolan?"
Conan asked, puzzled.
Perhaps it was after hearing Ran Mouri say that Conan thought of Shuichi Akai's appearance and inexplicably felt as if he had seen that person somewhere before.
"Um……"
Ran Mouri frowned and pondered for a while, then her eyes lit up.
"Oh, I remember now! It was that time we went to New York before, I think we ran into this person!"
"New York? Oh, you mean that killer's case?"
Conan recalled in his mind his trip to New York.
However, it seems he didn't see it at the time.
Ran Mouri nodded, then looked at Conan with a surprised expression.
"Hmm... Hey, Conan, how did you know?"
Conan couldn't help but shudder.
"That's actually Shinichi-nii-san..."
Ok?
Conan snapped out of his daze.
Why am I panicking now?
He originally wanted to confront Ran Mouri, didn't he?
Damn muscle memory!
Conan coughed twice and immediately spoke seriously.
"Ahem, because I already said I'm Shinichi Kudo."
"Hehe, Conan, you're joking again. Shinichi, really, how many stories have you heard from him?"
"..."
ultra!
