Traveling back thirty years to Conan, intercepting Princess Eri

Chapter 44 Takagi Wataru

Is it really Sato Miwako?
Lin Xiuyi looked at the little girl carefully. She was indeed very cute. Judging from her behavior just now, she was also very proud of her father who was a criminal policeman. No wonder she would join the Investigation Division and become a policewoman in the future.

"Big brother, you haven't told me yet, why do you know my name?" Xiao Meihezi reached out and pulled the corner of Lin Xiuyi's clothes.

"Because I know your father," Lin Xiu said with a smile, "Now you are sure that big brother is not a bad person, right?"

"...Hmm," Xiao Meihezi tilted her head and thought for a while, then finally nodded.

Lin Xiuyi breathed a sigh of relief and took out another peach from the bag, gave one to the little boy and the other to Xiao Meihezi.

"Is it really edible?" The little boy was still a little unsure.

"Eat it," Xiao Meihezi said affirmatively, "This big brother knows my father, he must not be a bad person."

"Oh," the little boy obediently took a small bite of the peach.

Seeing that he finally stopped crying, Lin Xiuyi turned around and walked back to where he had just sat, but he didn't expect that Xiaomeihezi also brought the little boy and sat next to him.

"Aren't you two going to play with sand anymore?" Lin Xiuyi said helplessly.

"I don't want to play anymore. He destroyed the castle I built." Xiao Meihezi took a bite of the peach and looked at the little boy with disgust while chewing. "I should have stopped playing with him earlier."

"Sorry..." The little boy lowered his head timidly, "Sister, I didn't mean it."

"Forget it, let it collapse," Xiaomeihezi waved her hands, "Mom will come out of the supermarket soon anyway, so we can't play anymore."

Lin Xiuyi took out a bottle of water from the plastic bag and drank it while casually asking, "Your name is Sato Miwako, what about him?"

"I don't know. I just met him today." Xiao Meihezi shook her head and reached out to push the little boy. "Hey, what's your name?"

"Takagi Shigeru, our family just moved here the day before yesterday..."

As soon as the little boy finished saying his name, Lin Xiuyi started coughing dryly due to choking.

You two are really destined to be together. You've known each other since you were so young?

Lin Xiuyi looked at the two children in front of him. In his impression, these two people must have grown up and worked in the Investigation Division, and then got to know each other and gradually established a romantic relationship.

They know each other now at such a young age, is it because he, as a time traveler, has affected the world line?
Fortunately, this shouldn’t be a bad thing. After all, many childhood sweethearts in this world will eventually become lovers.

Lin Xiuyi was lost in thought as he glanced at the pay phone in the corner of the apartment. He saw the bald man flipping through the phone book while talking on the phone.

He couldn't help but feel a little strange. Normal people make phone calls for a purpose, so it's impossible for them to not know who they are calling for so long.

If it is a salesman, after the call is connected, he will definitely try his best to sell his products. He will never be like a man who hangs up the phone after making a single call, then flips through the phone book and continues dialing.

"That bald guy," Lin Xiuyi pointed at the bald man in front of the pay phone, "Do you know how long he's been making calls there?"

"I don't know."

Xiao Meiwazi shook her head directly, but Xiao Gaomu thought for a moment and replied, "It must have been a long time ago. When I went to the park to play, the uncle was already on the phone."

When Lin Xiuyi was carrying things to the community park just now, the two children's castle had already been built to a considerable size, and it would probably take at least an hour to complete.

Judging from this, the bald man had been talking on the pay phone for at least an hour.

The previous call to Hibari Eri's house should have been made by him.

Harassment calls?

No, if they really wanted to harass someone, they should keep calling the same number, not switching numbers. The bald man looked like he was trying to confirm something by calling.

For example, is the owner of the house on the phone at home?

Yesterday afternoon, when Lin Xiuyi returned home from school, Mrs. Maori came downstairs to remind him that there had been more than a dozen thefts in Beika Town recently.

The fact that the thief was able to commit the crime more than ten times in a row without being caught shows that he must have inquired about the situation in the target's home before committing the crime.

What the bald man in front of him was doing was probably scouting the area before the thief took action.

After confirming this, Lin Xiuyi did not rush forward.

There are many children in the community park, and no one knows whether the bald man has other companions.

If he goes up to subdue the bald man and the other man's accomplices jump out and grab the child to threaten him, it will be troublesome.

As for leaving the community park and calling the police, if the bald man left after he left, it would not be easy to find him again.

Also, let others call the police...

Lin Xiuyi glanced at the two children beside her. They were too young and had to cross the road at the nearest intersection, so she couldn't let them take any risks.

There were still adults in the park, but Takagi Wataru was crying so hard that none of them paid any attention.

It might not be easy to convince them to call the police. If you’re not careful, it might alert the bald man in the corner.

Just when Lin Xiuyi was in trouble, a woman in her thirties walked into the community park with shopping bags. Xiaomeihezi saw her and immediately ran over.

"mom!"

Is she Officer Sato's wife?

Lin Xiuyi's eyes lit up and he stood up and walked over.

"Miwako, where did you get the peaches?" Mrs. Sato scolded her daughter unhappily. "Didn't your father tell you not to eat anything given by strangers?"

"But this was given to me by my father's friend," Xiaomeihezi said aggrievedly, "that big brother even knows my name."

"Big brother?" Mrs. Sato's expression suddenly became nervous. "Did he ask you to do anything else, such as lift up your skirt and touch you..."

There is a reason why Mrs. Sato is so anxious. There are very few cases of human trafficking in Japan, but the number of child molestation cases is surprisingly large, and is increasing year by year.

Lin Xiuyi was walking over when he heard this. Naturally, he was extremely embarrassed. He quickly explained, "Mrs. Sato, I met Officer Sato before in the Investigation Division."

"You..." Mrs. Sato was stunned. "I think I've seen you somewhere. Oh, on TV! You're the genius detective from Teitan High School. My husband even talked about you!"

At this point, thinking of what she had just said, Mrs. Sato quickly bowed and apologized.
"I'm sorry, I thought it was a pervert bullying Meiwako. Please forgive me!"

"It's okay. It's normal for you to react like this when you see a stranger approaching your daughter," Lin Xiuyi waved his hand. "By the way, Madam, I actually need your help with something."

　Wow, Black Monkey has been updated, adding two new challenge modes and additional maps.

　　The difficulty and skills of the boss in the challenge mode have also increased. The Tiger Vanguard has become more handsome and can even use his iron head and iron arms to hit people!

　　It’s a pity that only Epic has updated it now, and Steam seems to have to wait until the 14th.
