Rebirth of Conan as a Detective

A week later, Izu Princess Hotel private beach.

Gao Cheng was lying on the beach chair in shorts, looking around under the sunglasses.

Under the cloudless and clear sky, occasionally a gust of sea breeze blows up the heat wave. The heat is a little hot, but it is just right. During this summer vacation, the beach is full of people, girls and sisters in bikinis There are many more, all of whom come here to travel and cool off.

Gao Cheng's eyes followed a young lady passing by, and landed on girls in swimsuits who were playing wantonly in the sea water. The water splashed all over the chest and stretched the swimsuits tightly...

"Oh, you're in such a good shape, I didn't make a mistake this time!" Suddenly, a familiar uncle's voice sounded beside Gao Cheng. Squinting.

Since this guy is here, then...

Gao Cheng continued to look around with a dark face, and soon saw Mao Lilan who was holding Conan on the other side. Mao Lilan in a blue swimsuit had fair skin and a good figure. You could also see Conan's flushed face.

"This kid..."

The good mood is gone all of a sudden, why can I meet this guy every time, the rare holiday may be ruined again, if I travel next time, can I only go to Hokkaido?

Taking advantage of Kogoro Mori's group not noticing him, Gao Cheng carefully put away his things, pretended not to know him and quickly left the beach.

In the lobby of the hotel, Gao Cheng registered at the front desk while waiting for the rest of the tour group.

Like everyone else, he also received a list of everyone and room numbers.

Including him, there are 7 groups of 11 people in total, and one of the two Ph.D.s actually includes Dr. Ali. As for the others, they are either programmers, software company presidents or investors, and math teachers... Generally speaking, he is more likely to find the host, the Night Duke.

Reasoning cannot be compensated by observation ability. What he lacks is the reasoning ability to sort out intricate clues like Conan, so that he can't even find someone.

A man wearing gold-rimmed glasses walked aside with his computer in his arms, half of his slender face was covered by bangs, and he looked a little gloomy.

"Are you the Duke of the Night?" the man suddenly asked.

"what?"

Gao Cheng looked at the man suspiciously, and glanced at the stopwatch program on the computer: "Are you also part of the tour group?"

"0.5 seconds, 0.35 seconds to be precise," the man smiled and saved the data, "It's really an amazing reaction, it's the shortest reaction time among us, people's reactions to sudden problems are often the most real, it seems You are most likely to be the Duke of the Night."

"what?"

Gao Cheng looked puzzled: Please, you made such a big move, I noticed it before you walked to the side, does it make any difference what question you ask?

"I'm Konno Shiro from room 2002, a bank employee," the man smiled, "You are the Jin Tianyi who was accidentally pulled into the group, right? I cared about you a lot in the group before..."

"Hmph!" A man with long hair hanging back sitting in the hall was holding a can of beer and said drunkenly, "Everyone asks you this, don't you bother me, do you really think you can find the Duke of the Night by doing this? ? I think you are the Duke of the Night!"

"Mr. Jiangyuan from Room 2101," Konno Shiro glanced at the man with hair behind him, "It seems that it took you 2.86 seconds to answer my question, but it's not without suspicion, hey."

Mori Kogoro walked into the hall, looked at Konno Shirou and the two strangely, and when he noticed Gao Cheng, his face darkened: "Why are you here? Every time I meet you, nothing good seems to happen, really."

Gao Cheng half-opened his eyes, and suddenly thought of Dr. A Li who hadn't appeared: "Wait, you are here to participate in the 'Izu Mystery Tour'?"

"Are you too?" Mori Kogoro was stunned for a moment,

The mustache trembled, "It's really unlucky, it's rare to have a free trip..."

"Free?" Jiang Yuan said with a smile, "You are talking too much. Before you find out the true face of the Duke of Dark Night, everything is still uncertain."

"Ah?" Mori Kogoro stared blankly at Jiang Yuan, not knowing why, "Isn't it free?"

"You are the Duke of the Night, right?" Konno Shiro suddenly moved behind Mouri and asked, and pressed the keyboard after Mouri Kogoro reacted in a daze.

"Me?" Maori pointed to himself confusedly.

"3.04 seconds... It took you so long just to answer my question..." Shiro Konno raised the corners of his mouth and reminded him, "Don't you know? The room rate is only half paid in advance..."

"Only paid half of the price?" Mori didn't pay attention to what Konno Shiro said next, but rushed to the counter anxiously.

"Mr. A Li is waiting for three people, right?" the waiter explained after checking, "Your accommodation fee is indeed only half prepaid..."

Mao Li's face was dripping with sweat: "How could such a thing happen? Can you check again?"

"What's the matter, Dad?" Xiaolan and Conan came up and asked in surprise.

Maori asked Conan with an ugly face: "Stinky boy, the hotel only pays half of the price. What's going on? Didn't you say it's free?"

Xiaolan didn't expect this kind of thing to happen either, so she said, "At least half of the payment has already been made, we'll just pay the other half..."

"But," Mori Kogoro looked back at Gao Cheng who was on the side, and whispered into Xiaolan's ear in embarrassment, "I didn't bring that much money."

"Senior, you are here!"

Xiaolan also noticed Gao Cheng, greeted her, and quickly said to Moli Kogoro happily: "Father, can I borrow from Gao Cheng's senior, the senior may have some money..."

"Hmph, let me borrow money from him, why don't you just kill me," Mori Kogoro said in a broken jar, unable to save face, "Forget it, I'm going back to my room!"

"Ah? Dad! What about the hotel room money?" Xiaolan shouted anxiously.

"I'll lend it to you when the time comes." Gao Cheng looked at the back of Mori Kogoro leaving speechlessly, "You can return it to me when you return to Tokyo."

"Really?" Xiaolan breathed a sigh of relief, "Thank you so much, Kido-senpai!"

"Kirodo?"

Konno Shiro and several other members of the tour group who happened to come over couldn't help being taken aback when they heard this.

"Isn't it Kindaichi?"

"That, haha," Gao Cheng scratched the back of his head, "Actually, Jin Tianyi couldn't come, so let me replace him. My name is Kido Gaocheng, and I'm a detective..."

"Detective, detective?!" The expressions of the members of the tour group changed instantly, and all their eyes focused on Gao Cheng.

"Uh, what's the matter?" Gao Cheng looked hesitantly at the strange group of people.

What are you doing, why does it feel like a murder is about to happen...

"Could you be the modern left-handed character Kido Takasei that has been appearing in newspapers recently?"

A couple came from outside, a very energetic young man with short hair, and a young woman with yellow chestnut short hair, the young man among them was talking.

"I've read your report, and I'm still thinking about seeing each other someday." The young man smiled brightly.

"You are?" Gao Cheng looked at the young man suspiciously. He felt an unusual temperament from the young man, and his bright eyes were very similar to those of the masters in the kendo competition.

"Could it be that you are..." Xiaolan squeezed forward with bright eyes, excitedly said, "You are Mr. Maeda Satoshi?!"

"Maeda Satoshi?"

Conan looked at Xiaolan's appearance as a fan girl, and stood in the middle without any trace and said, "Sister Xiaolan, do you know each other?"

"Of course!" Xiaolan blushed excitedly, "He was the Japanese karate champion six years ago, and I started learning karate because I admired him!"

Talking about it, Xiaolan approached the young man again and said, "Hello, my name is Mao Lilan. I won the championship in the city meeting a while ago! I really didn't expect to meet you here. I'm so lucky!"

"What's so lucky about this?" Conan looked unhappy, and turned to Gao Chengdao, "Is the karate champion very good?"

"It should be very powerful." Gao Cheng sat on the sofa, looking at the embarrassed young man, "at least much stronger than your Xiaolan..."

"Better than Xiaolan?" Conan thought of Mao Lilan's usual performance, and his face became more depressed, "How does it compare to you?"

"How do I know, I don't know karate."

"Aren't you good at swordsmanship?"

Conan had dead fish eyes: "Fortunately, I thought you were pretty good."

"This..." Gao Cheng thought for a while, looked at Conan's appearance, and suddenly teased, "You must be jealous, right? Others already have girlfriends."

"Um?"

Conan followed and looked over, just in time Maeda Satoshi introduced his female companion, "This is my fiancée Akiko Sayama..."

"He's a high school math teacher." Gao Cheng looked at Akiko Sayama, and then glanced at the other people present.

In addition to the bank clerk Konno Shiro, programmer Ehara Tokio, Maeda Satoshi and Sayama Akiko, there is a beautiful mature woman, software company president Kamijo Hideko, and an old computer company investor Kenichiro Kanejo and his servants. Lin Jingjiang was also present.

All the people in this tour group have arrived, and one of them is the mysterious organizer "Night Duke".

To be honest, he still doesn't understand the purpose of the other party. There are so many people in the tour group, even if everyone only pays half of the room rate in advance, it is still a lot of money.

Is spending so much money just for fun? What's more, there is a mysterious computer program that seems to be of great value...

"It's really despicable," the drunken Jiang Yuan Shinan was half awake, and walked past Gao Cheng with a dissatisfied expression, "You actually hired a detective like you to replace him, hmph!"

"But having said that," Hideko Kamijou looked at Gao Cheng vigilantly, and suddenly turned to Xiao Ran in doubt, "You should be two doctors and a little girl who is in elementary school?"

Xiaolan was embarrassed and said, "It was because they had no way to come, so they were replaced by some of us, and the man just now was my father Kogoro Mori. He is not a doctor, but also a detective."

"Mori Kogoro?" The faces of the people present changed again.

"Nu, even the sleeping Mori Kogoro is here!"

"Isn't this just right? Maybe the number of people who are the Duke of the Night has decreased a lot." Hideko Kamijou chuckled.

"But in this way, the Duke of the Night will be more careful and harder to show his feet..."
