Conan: Rice Flower Spring

Chapter 204 198. When did these two become so familiar with each other?
As the sirens sounded from far away, Lin Longma's cell phone also vibrated.

"The detectives from the Metropolitan Police Department should be here. I'll go pick them up." Lin Longma said to a few people and then came to the gate of Ito's house. He watched as one police car after another braked suddenly, making a harsh friction sound and stopped not far from him.

In a blue car, Bai Niao hurriedly opened the door, then came to Lin Longma and asked seriously:

"Ryoma, is what you said on the phone true?"

"It's true, Ren Saburo." After the Moon Shadow Island incident, the relationship between Lin Longma and Shiratori Ren Saburo became much closer. It's easy to establish friendship between men, not to mention the four iron bonuses.

The four strongest bonds of a man are: studying together, carrying guns together, visiting prostitutes together, and dividing the spoils together.

On Yueying Island, Lin Longma and Shiratori Renzaburo had barely reached an agreement to carry guns together and share the spoils, so it was natural for them to become closer.

So Lin Longma would naturally not forget his "good brother" for such a prominent job.

"The only son of the chief of the Osaka Prefectural Police Headquarters is inside right now, and that's not all." Just as Shiratori was about to go into Ito's house, he was stopped by Hayashi Ryoma:

"The only daughter of the Chief of the Criminal Division of the Osaka Prefectural Police Headquarters is also on it now."

"The daughter of Inspector Toyama has also been kidnapped?!" Shiratori Jinzaburo was completely confused at the moment. What on earth did the kidnappers from Tokyo want to do?

Among the senior officials of the Osaka Prefectural Police Headquarters, these two were the only children. And then they watched them get kidnapped?
Are these bastards going to cause a war between the Tokyo and Osaka police stations?

"Don't worry, the trouble is over, and things should be good now." Seeing that Bai Niao was a little out of control, Lin Longma spoke to comfort her:

"The mastermind of the kidnapping has been caught, and the two accomplices were shot dead when Shiraishi rescued Hattori-san and Toyama-san.

There was nothing we could do about it. They were all in the attic at the time. The distance was too close and they had guns."

Lin Longma told Shiratori about the situation, and Shiratori looked relieved when he heard it: "Well done!

Ahem, what I mean is that Mr. Shiraishi's act of bravery is very rare and we should encourage it.

Don't worry, Ryoma, no one will make things difficult for Bai Shi."

"Then I'll leave it to you." After Lin Ryoma finished talking to Shiratori, he took him into Ito's house.

After entering Ito's house, many detectives skillfully began the on-site investigation. Some of them went to the attic of Ito's house, where there were still two bodies that had not been recovered.

The other group went to the master bedroom of Ito's house, where the mastermind of the kidnapping was still tied to the bed and unable to move.

Shiratori found Hattori Heiji and Toyama Kazuha first.

After confirming that only Hattori Heiji suffered some of the consequences for the two young men and women, Shiratori felt relieved.

As a boy, Hattori Heiji doesn't mind a little hardship. Since Hattori Heizo can let his child run away to become a high school detective, he must have been prepared for the child to be "thrown and beaten".

It is impossible to want children to get exercise without putting them at risk of injury.

On the contrary, the Toyama family has only one daughter. If she suffers a loss, no one knows what Toyama Ginjiro will do.

No one wants to face a crazy criminal chief, especially the criminal chief of the Osaka Prefectural Police Headquarters.

After the police arrived, Shiraishi handed over his gun and gun license to the detective for investigation. With Conan's "help", he was already familiar with this process. After the police investigation was completed, it was time for everyone to go their separate ways.

"By the way, President Hayashi." Just when Hayashi Ryoma sent Hattori Heiji and Toyama Kazuha to the downstairs of the Mori Detective Agency, Hattori Heiji suddenly stopped Hayashi Ryoma who was about to leave.

"What's up, Hattori-san?"

"To repay you and Mr. Shiraishi for saving my life, if you have time these days, how about I invite you to visit Osaka?"

"Haha, I appreciate your kindness, Hattori-san." Lin Ryoma was very satisfied with Hattori Heiji's grateful character, but he still wanted to forget about being invited to play by a high school student.

It's good that Hattori Heiji has this attitude. As for going to Osaka for fun, if Hayashi Ryoma wants to go, he can go by himself.

Even if they wanted to find someone to entertain them, the organization had a base in Osaka. At most, there weren't as many as in Tokyo.

"No, I'm serious, President Lin." Hattori Heiji said to Lin Ryoma seriously, "I also want to introduce you to my father. At least he should get to know the savior of his son."

Compared with Kudo Shinichi, Hattori Heiji seems to be more "casual" in his daily life.

Come to think of it, he is the son of the Chief of the Osaka Prefectural Police Headquarters after all, so he doesn't really need to have any special concerns on a daily basis.

This is also the biggest difference between Hattori Heiji and Kudo Shinichi. The Kudo family implements a laissez-faire policy, and apart from the necessary skills of a detective, Kudo Yusaku rarely gives Kudo Shinichi real-time advice.

But it was the same kind of laissez-faire approach for the child. Since Hattori Heiji lived with his parents, even if Hattori Heizo had not given him any special instruction, he naturally acquired some skills beyond detective skills through the years of exposure to his parents.

"In that case, I can't let Hattori-san down." Lin Ryoma's attitude changed very smoothly.

Since Hattori Heiji understands this, what else can I say? Let's go to Osaka!
-
This time when going to Osaka, Hayashi Ryoma did not choose to let Shiraishi drive there.

It takes about eight or nine hours to drive from Beikacho to Osaka, and it will be even slower if there is a traffic jam.

They simply chose to take the Shinkansen to Osaka, since there was no security check on the Shinkansen anyway. Lin Longma remembered that once Gin directly brought a whole box of bombs onto the Shinkansen.

If they can carry bombs, pistols are even less important.

This trip to Osaka included not only Hayashi Ryoma and his party, but also the Mori family.

"Speaking of which, I was a little curious yesterday, Mr. Maori, when did you become so close to Hattori-san?"

When Hattori Heiji asked Hayashi Ryoma to take him to the Mori Detective Agency yesterday, Hayashi Ryoma was somewhat surprised.

The last time Hattori Heiji met the Mori family, witnessed by Hayashi Ryoma, it can't be said that they hit it off at first sight, but they were certainly not close.

How come after such a short period of time, Hattori Heiji and the Mori family were able to stay overnight without even saying hello?

"It's not that I have a good relationship with that Hattori brat, it's that Hattori brat has a good relationship with that brat."

Maori Kogoro pouted unhappily, then gestured to Conan:
"After the last diplomat incident, that kid secretly signed up for a Sherlock Holmes tour group, and met Hattori again in the tour group."
