After traveling through Detective Conan, I became a popular person
Chapter 39: She is a professional at arguing with people
On the other side, Jinpei Matsuda and Kenji Hagiwara were walking on their way home.
After Matsuda Jinpei left Hoshino Hitomi's house, the blush on his face had gradually faded away, and he suddenly looked at Hagiwara Kenji.
Matsuda Jinpei asked a question that confused him: "Kenji, how did you guess that Hitomi was home alone? Shouldn't her parents be there?"
The smile on Hagiwara Kenji's originally unrestrained face suddenly disappeared. He stopped and said solemnly: "Xiao Zhenping, I'm actually not sure about this. It's just that after arriving at Tongchan's house, I haven't seen her parents."
Hagiwara Kenji analyzed every sentence carefully, "There's not even a single group photo in Hitomi's house, only a few photos of Hitomi herself, but I noticed some traces of photos being hung on the wall, so I felt a little strange.
And Tong-chan never mentioned her family affairs, so I think we shouldn't bring it up on our own initiative, as it might bring up her sad memories.
My guess is that there are two possibilities: one is that Tongjiang's parents are very busy working outside and rarely come home to accompany her; the other is that Tongjiang's parents may have..."
Hagiwara Kenji paused, without saying the rest of the words, lowered his eyes and whispered: "I actually hope that my guess is correct and the former is correct. Otherwise, Hitomi-chan is too pitiful..."
Hagiwara Kenji went on to explain, "That's why I suggested that we spend more time with her since I was at Hitomi-chan's house."
Jinpei Matsuda roughly guessed what Kenji Hagiwara guessed the latter's original words. His brows slightly frowned, his expression changed several times, and his whole handsome face showed an unrecognizable complex color.
Gradually, everything calmed down, and Matsuda Jinpei slowly spoke in an unclear tone: "No matter what, I think Xiaotong is... a good person. If her family situation is really as you said, as her friends, we should take better care of her."
Hagiwara Kenji was stunned for a moment, then a faint smile appeared on his face. He patted Matsuda Jinpei on the shoulder and said, "Little Jinpei is very conscious. I have the same idea as you."

At seven o'clock in the evening, Hitomi Hoshino received the task assigned to her and Kurosawa Jin by the organization.
The mission seemed relatively simple. She and Kurosawa Jin were responsible for covering for the intelligence team and going to a company to steal evidence of drug smuggling in order to extort their money to supplement the organization's public funds.
Hoshino Hitomi then changed into a black leather jacket with a white T-shirt underneath, and a pair of denim shorts with a belt. This outfit made it much easier for her to move around.
Hoshino Hitomi thought to herself: It's getting very late now. If I tell the butler and the maid that I'm going out alone, they will definitely not agree. It seems I have to go out secretly.
One of the windows in Hitomi Hoshino's room was very close to the backyard of the villa. Hitomi Hoshino gently opened the window. Because the room was on the first floor, Hitomi Hoshino easily climbed through the window and came to her backyard.
Hitomi Hoshino tiptoed to the wall of the backyard garden, looked around, and breathed a sigh of relief when she found that there was no one.
Because of her Qinggong skills, Hoshino Hitomi jumped up and then jumped to the top of the three-meter-high wall, then jumped down and came to the outside of the wall.
Hoshino Hitomi thought of Rum's impatience and thought he would become impatient if he had to wait any longer, so she immediately ran to the street, hailed a taxi, and asked the taxi driver to drive in the direction of the organization's base.
Half an hour later, Hoshino Hitomi was about to reach the organization's base, and suddenly she remembered Rum's instructions to her, telling people outside the organization not to drive within a thousand meters of the organization.
Hoshino Hitomi frowned slightly and had to ask the driver to stop the car. After paying the fare, Hoshino Hitomi hurriedly got out of the car and then ran towards the organization's base at full speed.
There is still more than a thousand meters away from the organization's base, and she has no idea how long it will take her to finish running with her thin arms and legs.
Hoshino Hitomi first observed her surroundings, and taking advantage of the dead of night, she used her lightness skills and arrived at the organization's base in less than two minutes.
Hoshino Hitomi then ran into the organization's meeting hall. All the people who were going to carry out the mission had already arrived. Hoshino Hitomi happened to be the last one to arrive, but she was only a few minutes later than the others.
Rum had no intention of accommodating her. He turned his head and looked at Hoshino Hitomi with cold eyes. He said in a low voice: "Tita, you are too late. If you come so late again, you don't need to come anymore."
Upon hearing this, Hoshino Hitomi's hair became disheveled. Her life was truly like walking on thin ice.
And does Rum want to see what he is saying?
Hoshino Hitomi complained in her heart: Even if she is late, she can't be that late. He only sent the notice half an hour ago. Her home is only dozens of kilometers away from the organization's base. Does he want her to fly here on a rocket?
The corners of Hoshino Hitomi's mouth slightly raised, and she glanced at Rum with a wry smile and said, "I have already rushed here as fast as I could. It was you who said that people outside the organization cannot drive within a thousand meters of the organization's base. Now you are the one who says I am late."
Hoshino Hitomi's expression was icy, and then her smile disappeared. She said calmly, "What else do you want from me? You clearly know that my home is the farthest away in the entire organization, and I'm still in elementary school and can't drive myself. If you wanted me to come earlier, wouldn't you have notified me earlier, or is your phone broken and too slow to send messages, so you need to buy a new one?"
Rum is just a workplace bully. Are you kidding me? She has seen all kinds of storms. She can bully him in a minute until he doesn't even recognize her own mother.
Hoshino Hitomi has been annoyed with Rum for a long time, and she even rushed to get her to criticize her, which was just asking for trouble.
Rum's face was so gloomy at this moment that ink seemed to drip out of it. Suddenly he chuckled again, but that chuckle was a very sinister one.
Rum said dimly, "You still know you are in elementary school. Apart from your appearance, I don't see how you look like an elementary school student. And you talked back to your superior. Since this is your first offense, I won't bother with a brat like you. You won't be so lucky next time."
After Rum finished speaking, he left the meeting room with a gloomy face.
But it is understandable that Rum was only responsible for counting whether the people who were going to carry out the mission were present. After they arrived, he could leave. However, before leaving, he was angrily scolded by Hoshino Hitomi, so it was reasonable for him to be in a bad mood.
Vermouth, who had been watching the show, couldn't help laughing after Rum left. She chuckled and said, "Pfft, baby, you are so funny. You actually dared to talk back to Rum. You are the first newcomer in history who dared to talk back to him after joining the organization for less than a day."
Hoshino Hitomi sighed helplessly and said, "Sister Bei, that's because Rum is really too much. He just knows how to threaten people all day long. If I don't confront him, he will treat me as a soft persimmon."
Vermouth curled her lips and smiled, nodded in agreement, and said: "Someone needs to punish Rum."
She is really becoming more and more interested in Tita~
Kurosawa Jin had just seen the scene of Hoshino Hitomi and Rum quarreling with each other, and a smile appeared in his cold eyes. Then he said in a calm voice: "Let's go to the place where the mission is to be carried out first."
"no problem."
