Chapter 715 Professional counterpart
Toru Amuro originally wanted to drive back with Kei Katsuka to investigate what was going on. After all, her story was full of loopholes.
But he was not the only one who was curious. Chu Ming had already packed up and was waiting downstairs.
Conan was originally a little scared of Toru Amuro, but seeing that Chu Ming had already gone up, he naturally didn't want to be left behind, so he also pulled Kogoro Mouri, who was already eager to join the ranks of sending Kenzuka home.
Xiaolan was supposed to be responsible for staying in the detective agency, but she was afraid of these ghosts and spirits. Someone had just committed suicide in the toilet of the agency in the afternoon, and she didn't dare to stay alone, so she insisted on going with them.
Therefore, the small back seat of the Mazda RX7 carries too much weight that does not belong to it.
Fortunately, Xiaolan and Chu Ming are relatively thin, and Maori Kogoro is not a strong man either. Conan was directly stuffed into Xiaolan's arms by Chu Ming, so they were able to squeeze in even though they were so crowded.
Toru Amuro looked at the scene in the back seat, his mouth twitched slightly, and he drove silently.
Fortunately, he was the owner of the car, otherwise he would be the one being pushed to the back.
"It seems that Officer Sato also has a car of this model, but the color is different." Xiaolan looked at the decorations in the car curiously. Conan was even more eager. He touched the glasses he was wearing, as if he wanted to put a bug and a tracker in the car, but he gave up in the end.
Maori Kogoro was squeezed in the middle, with nowhere to put his legs: "Why did you all follow us?"
"I'm scared when you're not here!" Xiaolan silently hugged Conan tightly, "Then why did Dad come with us? Mr. Amuro said he can do it alone."
"I am also worried about Miss Kei's safety! After all, she is my client. What if that man really has accomplices lying in ambush near her home? Wouldn't one more person be more helpful?" Maori Kogoro turned around and accused Chu Ming, "But you, kid? I just saw your car parked in the parking lot over there. How did you squeeze in?"
Chu Ming said confidently: "Why do you want to drive yourself when there is a car available?"
Seeing that everyone was right, Kogoro Mouri turned his head silently and said nothing.
The car stopped in front of a high-end apartment. Chu Ming and his companions followed Kenzuka Kei up to the seventh floor. After they stepped out of the elevator, Maori Kogoro looked around and said with some emotion: "The environment here is really good. The rent is not cheap, right?"
"It's OK, mainly because my parents support me." Kenzuka Kei didn't seem to want to say more. She took out the key and stood sideways to block the door. "Okay, as you can see, there are no people spying near my house. I'm home now. Thank you for sending me back. Too many things happened today, so I won't keep you for tea..."
Among the people present, only Maori and his daughter were truly here to send her home. Hearing this, Maori Kogoro nodded and said, "Well, that's fine. Then we'll send her here..."
Before he finished speaking, Conan the Drama Queen began his performance. He hugged his stomach fiercely and stomped his feet back and forth alternately: "Ahhh, my stomach hurts so much. I forgot to go to the toilet just now. Big sister, bathroom, bathroom, please, can I use the bathroom? Please, please, I can't hold it any longer..."
Kenzuka Kei paused as she was holding the door handle. She didn't want to let these people in at all, but they came here out of concern for her safety. If she didn't let this child go to the toilet, it would seem particularly inhumane, so she had no choice but to open the door: "Okay, okay, don't worry..."
The moment the door opened, Conan quickly squeezed in through the crack. Kenzuka Kei turned on the light at the entrance, thinking that since Conan was the only child going in, he probably wouldn't find anything: "The toilet is on the right side of the entrance."
As people walked around, the smell in the room also drifted out. Chu Ming frowned slightly. This smell was like the stench of a corpse.
He glanced back at Toru Amuro and saw a hint of interest in his eyes. It was obvious that he had also smelled this scent.
The moment he realized something was wrong, Toru Amuro blinked his eyes and looked embarrassed: "Ms. Kenzuka, I'm really sorry, I couldn't help it..."
Before Kenzuka Kei could think of a reason to refuse, Maori Kogoro also spoke up: "Actually, I did too... I wanted to go to the bathroom before, but after that incident, I couldn't go..."
Good, good, Chu Ming couldn’t help but want to applaud them. They were treating other people’s homes as public toilets... How come Conan’s frequent urination is also contagious among people?
There was no other way, Kenzuka Kei could only turn around and say to the people gathered at the door with a smile: "Why don't you come in and have a seat? Although I can only offer you tea."
The few people who were waiting for her to say this took off their shoes and followed her in. Xiaolan followed behind embarrassedly, apologizing repeatedly: "I'm so sorry, Miss Kei."
"No, there's nothing we can do about it. It's understandable." Kei Kenzuka forced a smile as he watched several people enter the room with great ease.
The living room was a mess, with fast food boxes and packaging bags scattered all over the table, like a mess left after a party.
Maori Kogoro looked around and was a little surprised that such a delicate and beautiful girl like Kentsuka Kei had such a messy home. What was even more surprising was that Kentsuka Kei said that her brother had just passed away and she had been busy with his funeral recently, but she was still in the mood to bring people to her home for a dinner party: "Oh, this table is too... Was there a banquet held last night?"
"Yes, a friend from college came over unexpectedly. I'm really sorry, my house is a mess..." Kei Kenzuka was looking for something in the kitchen, and turned back to explain when he heard this.
Chu Ming saw that she seemed to want to find a cup of tea to entertain them, but she looked like she had no idea where she put the things. It seemed that this was not her home. Thinking of the stench of corpse he smelled when he just came in, Chu Ming lowered his eyes in understanding and sat down casually on the sofa.
Kogoro Mouri looked around boredly, muttered a few words about why Conan was so slow, then picked up the remote control on the table and turned on the TV, intending to watch some TV to kill some time.
What was being broadcast on TV at that moment was the news that a man had committed suicide in the restroom of the Maori Detective Agency.
"The news came out so quickly?" Xiaolan quickly took out her cell phone. "Oh no, my phone has been turned off. Mom must be worried about us after reading the news..."
Sure enough, as soon as she turned on her phone, the phone rang rapidly. She just picked up the phone, before she had time to speak, she heard Shiliang yelling anxiously on the other end of the phone: "Why did you turn off your phone? This is very worrying!"
"Shiliang?" Xiaolan was surprised. "Sorry, sorry, a lot of things happened today, and it's a mess here, so I haven't had time to check my phone..."
"Are Conan and Kogoro okay?" Finally getting in touch with them, Sera finally breathed a sigh of relief. She almost started to imagine what had happened to Xiaolan and the others.
The voice on the other end of the phone was a little intermittent. Xiaolan brought the phone in front of her and saw that the signal bar had not decreased. She was a little confused: "Sorry, Sera, your voice has been intermittent... I can't hear it clearly."
When Toru Amuro heard Xiaolan say that the phone call was intermittent, he suddenly became alert. He was also a top intelligence officer in reconnaissance and counter-reconnaissance. Now that it involved his professional field, he immediately became alert.
