Conan: I'm just an ordinary novelist

"Sorry! No, Hachi-chan, these people are the detectives who came to investigate the accident involving Brother Yingci, and his friends. Also, you can't ask guests for food."

Looking at the Akita dog eating heartily, Inufushi Yukihime looked a little distressed.

She smiled apologetically at Yun Xianhe:

"I'm so sorry, it doesn't usually behave like this."

"It's ok."

Conan on the side said in a low voice:

"In the final analysis, it may be because Brother Xianhe has such a strong affinity for small animals..."

Kogoro Mori, who was misidentified, tried to explain:

"No, I'm not a detective."

"You can't do that, Yuki."

A sudden voice interrupted Kogoro Mori's words.

Everyone looked towards the door of the house and saw a slightly older lady standing there with her hands on her hips, saying with a stern face:

"How many times do I have to tell you that if you call your dog's name or even touch it while it's barking, it will be mistaken for praising its behavior?"

"S-Sorry, Sister Kaozi."

"But, Mr. Detective, what's the matter with you coming here? Other detectives have been here before and confirmed that it was just an accident. They closed the case and went back."

A very decisive person.

Yun Xianhe sensed this from the way the other party spoke.

Maori Kogoro, who was misidentified, smiled awkwardly and tried to explain:

"No, no, I'm not a criminal policeman."

"It's because there's another case that looks like an accident but isn't. We wanted to confirm the situation, so we came here specially."

Kogoro Mori, who was interrupted again, looked at Hattori with half-moon eyes.

The latter smiled at him ingratiatingly and shouted meaningfully:

"Right? Mr. Detective?"

"You guy..."

He won’t care if he gets caught!

Yun Xianhe, who was forcibly supported, looked at the Akita dog Xiaoba who came over, squinted his eyes and murmured:

"Are there any friends around here that you don't know?"

"Wangwu?"

"You don't know either...it seems you haven't been here before."

Conan looked at the person who was talking to himself and suspected that the other person's body temperature had soared to a very scary number.

Look, the children have been burned silly.

"Brother Xianhe, can you understand what it says?"

“I don’t understand, but it can understand my instructions.”

"? What instructions?"

"I just asked it to take me to find other dogs of its kind nearby, but it didn't move. This proves that there are no other dogs nearby. Or it just hasn't seen any."

The analysis makes a lot of sense.

But...

Is there so much information in that sentence you just said? !

Xiaoba is just a dog, right?! Can it really understand?!

Conan has a complaint that he doesn't know whether he should say it or not.

Coincidentally, there was a friend next to him who agreed with Yun Xianhe's imaginative thinking.

Hattori frowned and thought for a while, then rubbed his chin:

"That's right. It looks like that thing at least hasn't entered this yard. Maybe we can let it guard the yard at night? If that thing is a real dog or something."

"It's not very realistic. This guy obviously hasn't received any more command training. Moreover, he is small in size, so his chances of winning in a fight are low. Should I bring a brick over?"

"If the demon dog saw the brick here, it would definitely not dare to come, right?"

"Hahaha, that's right."

Conan, who overheard the whole process, began to suspect that Hattori had been infected with a cold by Yun Xianhe.

And I developed a fever very quickly.

These two people must have lost their minds!

On the other side, Inubushi Koko and Inubushi Yukihime guessed that Hattori was talking about Shinichi who passed away yesterday.

However, they obviously did not believe what the deceased said before leaving here, that 'someone wants to use the magic dog to make the Inufu family extinct.'

"If this kind of words were to reach my adoptive mother's ears, it would make her very sad."

Maori Kogoro was a little surprised to hear what Koko said:

"Does Ms. Suchen live here too? I thought she was in the hospital now."

Hearing this, Inufushi Yukihime paused and said somewhat dejectedly:

"She lives here, but she's been in a coma and is almost impossible to talk to. I'll take you to meet her, and the others as well."

"excuse me."

The hero, who was almost half-dragged away, yawned lazily.

113 in the system space reminded in time:

[Big Boss, the anti-sickness medicine I took this morning is starting to take effect. ]

"Well, I'll use the excuse of going to the bathroom later."

After walking through the long corridor, I finally met the current owner of the house.

Although he was in a semi-comatose state.

"She has a cerebral embolism and has been in this condition since she fell ill last month. In fact, it would be better for her to be hospitalized, but she is old, so we decided to stay at home to take care of her."

The man kneeling in front of the bed explained as he covered the old woman with a blanket.

Then, as if he suddenly remembered something, he turned around and said to everyone:

"My name is Inufushi Chiaki, and I work as a doctor at the Inufushi Hospital near here."

"So, you should also be one of the eight adopted children?"

"Yes, the hospital where I worked before closed down. I didn't know what to do next, but luckily my adoptive mother rescued me."

Inubushi Chiaki seemed very grateful for the other party's rescue.

Hattori took the opportunity to ask:

"So, did Ms. Suchen say who she thought was a fake adopted child?"

“Well, I didn’t mention it specifically.”

"That uncle named Shinichi is simply a fake, right? He became the first traitor to escape from the Inufushi family because he was afraid of the non-existent demon dog legend!"

The wooden door was pushed open and a man stood at the door speaking in his loud voice.

Inufu Koko scolded:

"What are you talking about, Mr. Zenya? You actually said such rude words in front of your adoptive mother!"

Inufu Zen who was told this shrugged nonchalantly and said:

"She can't hear you. She's in a coma anyway. But, who are you...?"

"Ah, I'm the detective who came here with this detective."

The corner of Kogoro Mori's mouth twitched when he was "grandly" introduced by Hattori, but he did not spoil the show.

But it was clear that their team was a bit too large.

It would be easier for a criminal policeman to bring a detective with him.

But what about the two girls at the back, a foreign teenager, and a child?

A very strange combination of groups.

There was silence for a moment.

After Inufu Zen's unintentional reminder, the other two ladies who brought people into the house finally realized what was going on.

Would a normal criminal police come with so many people?

Even if they were all following the young detective, wouldn't that be too many? Wouldn't it affect solving the case?

For a moment, the four Inufushi looked at Maori Kogoro and the others with a bit of scrutiny in their eyes.

The 'Detective' who was being watched broke out in a cold sweat on his forehead.

He smiled awkwardly and was about to reveal his true identity.

"that,"

"Are you a detective too? Are young detectives popular these days?"

Inufu Zen also looked at the only foreigner here with some curiosity.
