Conan's All-Member Force Enhancement Plan
Chapter 469: A Visit to Betty Bright
It's rainy outside.
There was silence in the house.
Ran Mouri and Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya stood together, looking at Conan Edogawa opposite them in silence.
As they searched for more and more information, Edogawa Conan became more and more silent.
He found that his condition matched the traces in the house one by one.
Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya stared at Conan Edogawa, but he was talking to Ran Maoli: "Um, Xiaolan, are we going to arrest Conan?"
Mao Lilan held her forehead with her hand and said, "...Alas~ Let's go back and discuss it with Xiao Ai and the others first."
Conan Edogawa dead fish eyes: "Next time I must choose the role myself!"
On the other side, in the opera house, Suzuki Sonoko, Haibara Ai and Sawada Hiroki were happily chatting with "Irene Adler".
When Irene Adler heard Suzuki Sonoko and the other two call her "Ayumi", her eyes immediately lit up with joy: "You are... Ai!"
Huihara Ai nodded: "It's me, the landlord Mrs. Hudson is Sister Sonoko, and Colonel Moran is Hiroki."
"Irene Adler", aka Ayumi Yoshida, smiled brightly: "Sonoko-sister! Hiroki-sister! Great! You can hear my singing voice too! Let me tell you! My singing is super-beautiful now!"
Huihara Ai was very supportive: "Really? We are looking forward to it!"
Hiroki Sawada smiled and said, "We should really thank Sister Sonoko for buying the tickets and bringing us to the show, otherwise we would have missed Ayumi's amazing singing."
Suzuki Sonoko chuckled: "We will go tell Mitsuhiko later, he will definitely regret not coming to see the show!"
Yoshida Ayumi was puzzled: "Mitsuhiko? He's here too?"
Huihara Ai nodded: "Well, Mitsuhiko's role is Sherlock Holmes! And Xiaolan's sister, she is Inspector Lestrade, and Conan is Colonel Moran's subordinate, a character we don't know. They are going to complete the task of solving the case!"
Yoshida Ayumi asked with great interest, "Detective?"
Huihara Ai then told the story of the case in general.
After listening to the excitement, Yoshida Ayumi sighed with a little regret: "Alas, it's a pity that I can't contribute to our Junior Detective Team. My game task is to complete the performance in the opera house and get praise from more than 90% of the audience."
Huiyuan Ai comforted her: "It's okay, Ayumi. You just need to complete the performance mission well and achieve perfect results to bring honor to us! We will all be proud of you!"
Yoshida Ayumi smiled and said, "Yes, yes, yes! I will do my best to complete the task. If there is anything you need me to do, please let me know!"
Of course, Haibara Ai and the others agreed without hesitation.
The performance of "Irene Adler" was very successful. After the performance, the three came backstage to praise the opera. Suzuki Sonoko even expressed her desire to stay and watch the rehearsal and listen to the wonderful opera several more times.
Haibara Ai and Sawada Hiroki said that they had to go back to check on the progress of Mouri Ran, Edogawa Conan and Tsuburaya Mitsuhiko's investigation, and then left first.
Soon after, 221B Baker Street.
There were two more silent people.
Haibara Ai and Sawada Hiroki looked at each other and saw regret in each other's eyes.
Oh my, it's such a pity that I didn't get to see such an explosive development in person.
Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya's "people-reading" skill suddenly came into play: "... Ai, Hiroki-ge, are you guys gloating over someone else's misfortune?"
Edogawa Conan's resentful eyes immediately stuck to Huihara Ai and Sawada Hiroki. The two cleared their throats and said seriously: "No, no, how could it be! Are we that kind of people?"
Edogawa Conan: Stare~
Hiroki Sawada looked away: "...We were just thinking, it might not be Lily White."
Huihara Ai said seriously: "Yes, for example, the issue of height. Although we didn't see many tall people on the road, it doesn't mean there are none. For example, Betty Bright, whom we met that day, was very tall, and Irene Adler was almost as tall as Lily White."
Edogawa Conan retracted his resentful gaze in a second, frowned and thought: "Let's not talk about Irene Adler, but that Betty Bright is very suspicious. By the way, Xiaolan sister, Hiroki brother, where is the information you got about Betty Bright?"
Mao Lilan and Sawada Hiroki took out the information they had just obtained and distributed it to several people.
The police information provided by Mao Lilan was rather scarce. It just said that Betty Bright suddenly appeared in London seven years ago as a businessman and has been busy with her business ever since. She is an excellent business person and has been considered a top figure in London's business community for the past seven years.
The information about Hiroki Sawada is more detailed. It says that Betty Bright is suspected to be the daughter of a wealthy London family who was declared dead 27 years ago. She was able to successfully establish herself in the business world in London seven years ago because she had the support of a female aristocrat who was the head of a family.
The information also clearly stated the family details of the wealthy girl who was declared dead twenty-seven years ago.
As Edogawa Conan watched, he gradually became stunned: "There is definitely something strange about Betty Bright! As expected, the NPC who suddenly sent you information is not simple!"
The others also felt that Betty Bright's background seemed very interesting and she did not look like an ordinary NPC.
So they all agreed: "Let's go visit Betty Bright!"
When Si Xuanyu received the visiting card from Colonel Moran handed over by his subordinates, his brows raised slightly. It seemed that another player had appeared. He wondered who this person would be?
However, she did not agree directly, but asked her subordinates to decline it politely.
As a businesswoman, Betty Bright didn't know who Colonel Moran was. She was so busy with her business, how could she receive everyone?
Hiroki Sawada was not surprised to receive the rejection: "According to the original work, Colonel Moran has just made contact with Moriarty and is not well-known. Although I seem to have become Moriarty's confidant in the game, my reputation still doesn't seem to spread. It's normal to be rejected."
Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya scratched his head: "So does this mean that Betty Bright is not Moriarty's subordinate, so she doesn't know Colonel Moran."
Conan Edogawa touched his chin: "The murderer is smart and cautious, and this behavior fits the murderer's profile."
Soon Si Xuanyu received another joint visiting invitation from Sheriff Lestrade and Sherlock Holmes, and this time Si Xuanyu readily accepted it.
Mao Lilan and Tsuburaya Mitsuhiko brought Edogawa Conan, Haibara Ai and Sawada Hiroki to visit.
"Good day, everyone. Please come in."
Si Xuanyu was still wearing a complicated and elegant dress and welcomed everyone into her home, which, of course, was the house where Betty Bright actually lived.
As the people who delivered the visiting cards, Mao Lilan and Tsuburaya Mitsuhiko came forward to greet Si Xuanyu, and then introduced the guests they brought.
Si Xuanyu was very polite and courteous with a business smile as he praised Edogawa Conan and Sawada Hiroki, whom he had never met before, but his eyes and expression clearly expressed strangeness and alienation.
But when he heard Colonel Moran's introduction, a flash of doubt flashed across his face.
When Si Xuanyu turned around and led everyone inside, several people winked at each other.
Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya: It seems like she really doesn’t know Colonel Moran and Lily White.
Conan Edogawa: That's right, maybe it's just because Colonel Moran just handed her a visiting card, so she felt it was strange.
Ran Mao Li: So she really isn't Moriarty's person?
Hiroki Sawada: Maybe he just doesn't know me. Moriarty won't tell me all his cards.
Huihara Ai: Let's see. And just because she's not Moriarty doesn't mean she's not the murderer.
Si Xuanyu entertained the guests with flawless politeness: "Would you like something to drink, guests?"
Everyone exchanged polite greetings again.
Until Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya couldn't stand this lengthy process anymore, he started trying to get to the point: "Ms. Bright, we came here to ask you some questions. I wonder if it's convenient for you."
Si Xuanyu still smiled graciously: "Of course, what's the problem?"
Mao Lilan saw this and simply got straight to the point: "The information that Ms. Bright sent us before is really helpful. But please forgive me for being so presumptuous. As a police officer, I have some instinctive doubts about this.
The information is very targeted, so targeted that it seems that Ms. Bright is deliberately guiding us to suspect someone. Does Ms. Bright have anything to explain about this? "
