Conan: Rice Flower Spring

Chapter 220 214. Martial law, martial law!
"So this serial murder case was solved so vaguely?" The day after the incident, when Hayashi Ryoma and his group and the Mori family were preparing to return, Hattori Heiji and Conan looked at each other.

Last night, everyone was busy wrapping up the serial murder case and dealing with the aftermath of the congressman's death, and no one forgot that there was another group investigating the serial murder case in Osaka.

In fact, even the next day, no one remembered them.

It was common for Hattori Heiji to be away from home because of case investigations, and Hattori Heizo's wife, Hattori Shizuka, was apparently used to it.

Even though Kogoro Mori, Heiji Hattori and Conan are not at home, it does not prevent Shizuka Hattori and Kazuha Toyama from finding the guests who came from Tokyo.

Not to mention that among them is Hayashi Ryoma, the "great benefactor" of the Hattori family.

As an excellent mistress of her parents' home, Hattori Shizuka would not agree to anything from Lin Ryoma casually, but she could make Lin Ryoma feel at home in the Hattori family and receive attentive hospitality.

The exchange of interests was a matter between big men like Hattori Heizo. Hattori Shizuka knew that she only needed to entertain the guests who came to visit.

This led to Hayashi Ryoma being surprised to learn that these three people were still investigating the serial murder case when he contacted Maori Kogoro the next day.

Conan and Hattori Heiji are really amazing. Without Sakata's guidance, they managed to investigate the possible connections between some of the victims in just one night.

He also met the Osaka Prefectural Police who came to the archives to do some business.

It was also because of this detective that Hattori Heiji and his team learned that the case they were investigating had actually been solved.

The murderer set himself on fire in the warehouse after killing his last victim.

They investigated for a whole night but found nothing. Just after they met the Osaka Prefecture detectives, Hayashi Ryoma's call was also made to Mouri Kogoro's cell phone.
-
"No, you just found out about this?" Hearing Hattori Heiji's incredulous tone, Lin Ryoma's expression was also quite strange.

It’s fine if others don’t know the movements of the Osaka Prefectural Police, but who is Hattori Heiji?
He is the son of the Osaka Prefectural Police Chief, and a high school detective! It is obvious that he will take over his father's job in the future.

Others didn't know, so how could Master Hattori not know? He even spent an entire night investigating?!

"I say, since you knew the case was solved, why didn't anyone come to inform us?"

Hattori Heiji didn't rush to ask why his information channels suddenly became so blocked, but he felt that the people in his family were a little too disloyal!

After all, we were all acquaintances, so it was fine if Lin Longma and the others didn't tell me. Why did my mother and He Ye completely forget about them?

It was hard for Yuanshan Heye to explain this, but Lin Longma could say something: "Actually, I wanted to inform you at the beginning, but considering that Osaka Prefecture is your territory after all, the news should not be so blocked."

"As for why you haven't returned home yet, I actually thought you had encountered another murder case.

I was busy investigating so I didn’t have time to come back.”

Hattori Shizuka and Toyama Kazuha, who were about to see off Hayashi Ryoma and his party and Mouri Ran, subconsciously looked at each other and revealed an expression that said "I thought so too" when they heard Hayashi Ryoma's answer to Hattori Heiji.

That’s right, even if the king of heaven came today, they would have thought the same thing yesterday!

"How is this possible! Who would encounter murders so frequently? That's not the way you would cheat someone!"

Hattori Heiji immediately refused to listen. He could accept that Lin Ryoma ignored him, but he could not accept that Lin Ryoma treated him like a fool!

He is the Hattori of Kansai, do you think he is a fool?

Just when Hattori Heiji was about to retort, he suddenly noticed Conan who was whistling at the sky and looking around without daring to look at him. Wait, no. What's wrong with you? !

It turns out that Lin Longma didn't lie to him - are your Tokyo detectives really so unlucky? !
"Well, okay then. President Lin, I wish you a safe trip!" Hattori Heiji hung up the phone decisively and looked at the two Tokyo people beside him with ill intentions.
-
The final result of the trip to Osaka was that Hayashi Ryoma, Shiraishi, Kaneda, and Mori Ran returned to Tokyo together.

Kogoro Mouri and Conan decided to stay in Osaka for a few more days because of Hattori Heiji's eloquent talk.

As he boarded the return Shinkansen, Hayashi Ryoma silently prayed for the citizens of Osaka in his heart - the two plague gods of Tokyo who were staying in Osaka City and Kansai were left to fend for themselves.

After the Shinkansen arrived at Beihua Station, Hayashi Ryoma and his party of four exited the station. At the exit, the Isshinkai car was already waiting for them.

Isshinkai sent two cars, one of which was Lin Ryoma's Maybach. After the driver got off, Shiraishi took over.

The other one was responsible for taking Mao Lilan back.

"Uncle Lin, there's really no need to be so troublesome." Feeling that she had caused trouble for Lin Ryoma, Mao Lilan hurriedly refused, but was stopped by Lin Ryoma.

It was just to send Mao Lilan home, how much gas would it cost? Besides, Lin Longma's gas expenses could be reimbursed by the organization.

This thing would be a waste if not used.

(Gin: You used fifteen tons of gasoline in a month?)

After parting ways with Mao Li Ran, Hayashi Ryoma did not return to Isshinkai directly, because there were still people waiting for him in Tokyo.

In a remote factory in Kenbashi Town, Hayashi Ryoma saw Gin who had been waiting for him for a while.

"Hayashi Ryoma, is this true?" Gin asked without saying a word after meeting him.

"It's true. I think Kiichiro Numabuchi did not lie." Lin Ryoma did not mind the harshness of Gin's words. Instead, he handed the recorder to Gin.

Gin played it on the spot and then carefully distinguished it. As soon as the recording ended, Gin looked at Vodka beside him.

"Let them go."

"yes, Sir!"

Vodka had obviously made some preparations, and then Gin and Vodka got into Gin's favorite car, the black Porsche 356a.

Lin Longma returned to the Maybach and signaled Shiraishi to follow Gin's car. After driving for an hour and a half, the car stopped somewhere in Midorida Town.

When Lin Longma got off the car, this open area had obviously been put under martial law.

Midoritai is not as prosperous as Mika or Haido. It seems that the base where Kiichiro Numabuchi was trained was here.

As soon as Lin Longma got off the car, he saw Cohen and Chianti standing at the entrance of the training base. When Chianti saw Lin Longma, he subconsciously nodded and greeted him.

Seeing Gin coming, the usually taciturn Cohen said, "This place has been put under guard, and the instructors and administrators have all been arrested."
