My neighbor's name is Conan

Chapter 637: What’s Good Is the Thought

After putting Kogoro Mori on the bed, Aoki Matsu left and returned to his room.

As for things like bombing the ship, of course we will wait until the murder happens tomorrow and support from the Metropolitan Police Department arrives before we start the search.

The next morning, the sun was still bright and the weather was fine. The cruise ship was sailing on the blue sea. The tourists on the ship gathered on the deck, sipping morning tea while enjoying the sea view in the breeze. They all relaxed.

"It's so comfortable!" Mao Lilan stretched comfortably in the sea breeze.

"Really? It feels really good to be able to drink morning tea while enjoying the sea breeze." Suzuki Sonoko beside her also took a sip of black tea leisurely: "I feel like a lady."

Qing Musong rolled his eyes when he heard this and said, "Yuan Zi, you sound like you are not a lady. If you are not a lady, then we will all be left to starve!"

With Suzuki Sonoko's family background, she could have done this for every meal.

"Hahaha~That's true." Suzuki Sonoko laughed.

Mao Lilan was about to turn around and say something to Suzuki Sonoko when she heard her father on the other side holding his chin with his hand, looking at something sideways with a serious face, muttering to himself, "Yes, it's really good... It's really good..."

Ran Mao Li curiously followed her father's line of sight and saw Mrs. Yashiro Takae and Mrs. Niimi wearing sportswear and holding tennis rackets and following a waiter to the cabin.

Kogoro Mouri's gaze followed the two people, or to be more precise, followed their long legs. After the figures left, Kogoro Mouri's true nature was fully exposed.

He laughed so proudly that he turned to Aoki Matsu and asked in front of Mao Lilan and Niina Kaori: "Did you see that? President Takae's legs don't look like those of a person in his 50s at all!"

Kogoro Mouri's obscene appearance made his deskmates Suzuki Sonoko, Mouri Ran, Shinna Kaori, Conan and Aoki Matsu speechless and they sighed deeply.

"Really? What are you talking about so early in the morning?" Maori Ran glared at Maori Kogoro and yelled.

Maori Kogoro seemed to have just realized that Maori Ran was there, and he got scared and said quickly, "Sorry, sorry... I didn't mean to look."

"Can you please stop being so lewd!" Mao Lilan said angrily.

"Okay." Under the "female power" of Maori Ran, Maori Kogoro could only agree with a false intention.

But——I will never change!

Another table.

"Doc! Is it almost done?" Mitsuhiko asked excitedly after finishing his breakfast.

"Hmm?" Dr. Agasa didn't understand what Mitsuhiko was saying for a moment.

Ayumi smiled and explained to Dr. Agasa, "It's the cold riddle jokes you are so good at!"

Yuan Tai also said with a smile: "Since you want to ask questions, hurry up, otherwise I always feel something is wrong with my body."

"I wonder what kind of questions the doctor will give this time. I'm so looking forward to it." Sayuri said with anticipation.

Hearing the children say this, Dr. Agasa laughed dryly, feeling sorry for always telling jokes.

Conan next to him couldn't help but complain in his heart, "The Doctor was completely laughed at by them."

"Okay! I'll follow everyone's request and come up with a puzzle related to this cruise trip!" Dr. Agasa quickly adjusted his mentality and said with a smile.

Conan's eyes wandered, and he saw Kusaka Hironari walking up to Akiyoshi Miwako, who was lazily leaning on a chair, sunbathing and reading a novel, and the two began to talk in a low voice.

"The question is that Genta went to the ship's infirmary for treatment during the voyage. I want to ask what happened to Genta?" Dr. Agasa looked around: "One, because he ate too much and got a stomachache! Two, because he fell and sprained his foot! Three, because he got heatstroke after too much sun exposure. Which one is the correct answer?"

Hearing what Dr. Agasa said, Genta was a little unhappy, but seeing that his friends were all in the mood, he quickly started thinking too.

The four children all frowned and pondered. Although the final answer of each puzzle given by Professor Agasa was a joke, it would be difficult to figure it out without thinking about it carefully.

Mitsuhiko frowned, thought for a moment, then raised a finger and reasoned, "Based on Genta's usual behavior, the answer should be that the first one ate too much."

"No! It's not one." As soon as Mitsuhiko finished speaking, Yuan Tai patted his round belly and vowed: "No matter how much I eat, I won't have a stomachache!"

"I agree! For a seasoned foodie, having a stomachache after eating is the biggest disrespect to food!" Sayuri nodded, with stars in her eyes, and she agreed with Yuantai's words.

"Ah, I know the answer." At this time, Mao Lilan suddenly said with a smile across the table.

"Me too." Suzuki Sonoko smiled and said, "But, won't this be too difficult for children? Because compared to English..."

Seeing Suzuki Sonoko gesturing in the air, Mao Lilan waved her hands to stop her: "Ah! Sonoko, no!"

"English?" Mitsuhiko's eyes lit up: "Does it have anything to do with English?"

Agasa Yuko and Haibara Ai, who had gone out to get some juice, came back and just in time heard this. Haibara Ai said in a light tone, "The second clue is the boat."

"Boat?" The four children crossed their arms and looked up at the sky in deep thought.

"Ah! I know," Ayumi suddenly realized: "The answer is the second one, a sprained ankle. The English word for ship is Ship, and Genta has a wet cloth stuck on his foot, Shippu!"

"That's right!" Dr. Agasa said with a smile, and then he explained: "By the way, friendship is Friedmanship, and gossip is Gosship."

"It's Gossip, without the h!" Sayuri pouted and said, "I just learned this word a while ago."

"Really?" Dr. Agasa blinked.

"But, it's another cold joke indeed." Mitsuhiko said speechlessly, looking at Dr. Agasa with his half-moon eyes.

"Hehe~" Dr. Agasa smiled awkwardly.

Seeing this, a few little ones also laughed "Hahaha~"

After laughing, the little ones started analyzing the joke made by Dr. Agasa.

"Wet cloth and Ship." Mitsuhiko was a little annoyed. Why didn't he guess it just now?

Yuan Tai thought of something else, "But if you sprain your ankle while sailing, you'll regret it."

"What do you mean?" Mitsuhiko was a little confused.

Yuan Tai was very dissatisfied with this, "You really have no tacit understanding!"

Seeing the two arguing and forgetting their business, Ayumi quickly whispered, "By the way, let me ask you, when should we give it to her?"

Mitsuhiko took out something, which was a small cloth bag tied with a bow. "I can give it to you now."

Yuan Tai looked around, thinking that no one knew, but he unexpectedly met Qing Musong's smiling eyes. "Yuan Tai, what are you talking about? I see that Mitsuhiko is holding a small cloth bag in his hand?"

After these words were spoken, everyone else looked towards the kids.

When Mitsuhiko was called by Aoki Matsu, he subconsciously hid the small cloth bag in his hand behind his back.

Seeing this, Qing Musong looked at Sayuri and said, "Sayuri, lying is not a good behavior."

Sayuri glanced at the other three people after hearing this. After the three of them looked at each other, Mitsuhiko said, "It's the gold medal made of shells that we are going to give to Sister Xiaolan."

"Ah! A gift for me?" Mao Lilan was a little surprised.

"Yeah." Sayuri nodded, "We made it ourselves."

Yuan Tai looked at Mao Lilan and said, "This is a gift for us to congratulate Xiaolan for winning the Kanto Tournament."

"Brother Shinichi didn't give a gift to Sister Xiaolan, so we will make it up to her." Ayumi said to Ran Mouri.

Conan heard the half-moon eye and reappeared in the arena [Hey hey...]

After saying that, Mitsuhiko took out the small cloth bag and handed it to Mao Li Ran.

Mao Lilan took it with both hands, opened it and saw that it was a necklace made of shells, with a golden shell on it as a gold medal. She smiled happily at the little ones and said, "Thank you, I am so happy that you helped me prepare the gifts."

"Ha!" The kids were immediately happy when they saw that Mao Li Ran was very happy.

"Not bad." Suzuki Sonoko said after taking a look.

In fact, the shell necklace is made quite roughly, but what’s nice is the thoughtfulness of these few little ones.

So Mao Lilan didn't dislike it at all and directly put the shell necklace on her neck. "It's very beautiful."

"It's a gold medal." Mitsuhiko said, pointing at the golden shell.

Then the little ones congratulated loudly together: "Congratulations to Sister Xiaolan for winning the Kanto Championship."

"Thank you." Mao Lilan responded with a smile as beautiful as a flower.

Seeing this, Qing Musong smiled and said, "Oh, you guys tricked me. I didn't know about this before and didn't prepare a gift for Xiaolan."

Sayuri immediately said, "Brother, you can't cheat and deny it."

"Brother Aoki, that's not necessary." Seeing this, Mao Lilan quickly waved her hand.

Qing Musong shook his head gently. "Nothing. When we get back, I'll ask Xiang Baoli to give me some advice and I'll make sure to give you a gift you like."

Seeing that Aoki Matsu insisted, Mao Lilan no longer refused and said with a smile: "Okay, I'm looking forward to it."

Everyone talked for a while and took the last free drink. After drinking it, Suzuki Sonoko stretched and stood up: "Okay, what should we do next?"

"It seems a bit cold to go swimming now." Mao Lilan also stood up and picked up the blue jacket that was distributed as a souvenir on the ship.

"Okay, I'm going to change my clothes too." At this time, Kogoro Mouri stood up, stretched and said.

"Hey, why do you need to change clothes?" Mao Lilan asked curiously.

Kogoro Mouri held his chin and smiled proudly: "Because the Rei sisters invited me to their room." After saying that, he touched the back of his head embarrassedly. He didn't expect that his charm was so great.

Mao Lilan's eyes widened instantly and she looked at him, "Huh???"

"They seem to want to hear the stories told by the famous detective Mouri Kogoro. I'll leave first." After saying that, Mouri Kogoro turned around and left without giving Mouri Ran a chance to ask questions.

"Uncle is quite good at this!" Suzuki Sonoko said in surprise.

Conan also looked at Kogoro Mouri's back with some surprise, "When did he make the appointment with them?" How come he didn't know!

Mao Lilan held her forehead and sighed helplessly: "Forget it, leave him alone." She looked at the children beside her: "By the way, what do you want to do?"

"Hey? Let me think about it..." Mitsuhiko was a little confused by the sudden Cue.

Ayumi raised her hand and suggested excitedly, "I want to play hide and seek."

"Playing hide and seek here?" Sayuri was very surprised!

After hearing what Ayumi said, Mitsuhiko also said, "It seems to be fun."

"Then let's play together!" Yuantai also agreed.

"Hide and seek, it makes me miss it so much." Mao Lilan looked at Suzuki Sonoko and said with some emotion: "We used to play it often when we were young, right?"

"Yes! I've played it in the park and at my home." Suzuki Sonoko nodded.

Mao Lilan continued: "I played this game once before in elementary school."

"Is that so?" Suzuki Sonoko blinked. Is this true?

Conan, who was not interested in this, waved his hand: "Sorry, I don't want to play."
