Conan wants to lie down but won't let him

Chapter 151 Conan Returns Halfway

"Oh! I miss Xiaolan's first meal!" Conan began to count silently in his heart, expressing his inner longing for Xiaolan.

Perhaps Maori Kogoro was bored, so he turned on the radio in the car to listen. But indeed, in Maori Kogoro's eyes, there was nothing to talk about with Conan, a little kid.

It would definitely be better for him to turn on the radio to kill some boring time on the way. However, when he heard this, both Maori Kogoro and Conan were shocked.

"The body of 41-year-old Xishan Wu, who lived in an apartment building in Beihu Town, was found by his biological mother who was cleaning his room today.

According to her, on the screen of the personal computer next to the corpse, there was an ambiguous text saying "One has been solved, left by the Shadow Mage".

The police are currently investigating the case as a criminal offense. It is reported that Mr. Xishan is currently keen on online dating.

Today I was supposed to go to a gathering of the Magician Lovers League, where I’m the chat room leader…”

"Attend the party?" Kogoro Mouri was obviously stunned when he heard this, and Conan also completely woke up from his drowsy state due to a severe cold.

"I didn't expect such a tragedy to happen!" The radio continued to broadcast, and the report stopped at this place.

"Hey, hey, hey! Could this be the party that Xiaolan and the others attended today?" Mouri Kogoro was still wondering if it was the party that Xiaolan attended, but Conan couldn't wait any longer.

"Uncle, drive the car back, quickly!" Although Conan was sick, his voice was almost a roar.

"Uh...well, okay!" Kogoro Mouri no longer cared about Conan's bad attitude at this time. Although Fujiwara Hiroshi followed him, he was indeed worried about the safety of his daughter.

Kogoro Mouri slammed on the brakes and prepared to turn back. It was unclear whether he was talking to himself or to Conan.

"I didn't expect that what Brother Fujiwara said was right. Something really happened. Damn it, the signal is too weak in the mountains. I can't make any calls at all."

After failing to call the police again and again, Kogoro Mouri could only throw his phone aside and hit the steering wheel with his hands.

On the way back to the villa, Kogoro Mouri no longer cared about anything else and drove at full speed, until the gas truck was about to smoke.

At this time, everyone in the villa was enjoying a comfortable dinner. In such cold weather, the villa provided heating and food, which really looked very enjoyable.

"Hey, the most respected Japanese magician?" Araki Yoshizuru, holding a knife and fork, first repeated the question and then gave his own answer.

"My favorite is probably Kuroba Touichi! His stage performance is truly amazing."

"Yes, that's right! Me too!" When Doi Takeshu heard that Arashi Yoshizuru had such good taste and liked his father, he immediately agreed.

"If you ask me, I think it should be Kinoshita Yoshiro who has won all the titles at the young age of 20!"

Tanaka Kikue also gave her answer, but she definitely couldn't say the answer was her grandfather, because that would expose her directly.

"If you ask me, the person I admire the most is Kyujuu Motoyasu!" Hamano Toshiya also gave his answer at the right time.

Isn't this a coincidence! The person Hamano Toshiya likes is Kujuku Motoyasu, who is the victim in the case that Conan and Maori Kogoro solved before.

It was a specially designed murder in a locked room, which was quite similar to the way he would die later. It was also a specially designed method to create a natural locked room.

And Kinoshita Yoshiro was not an ordinary person. He was killed by his teacher who destroyed the magic device during an escape magic trick.

This way of death is similar to that of Tanaka Kikue's grandfather, except that Tanaka Kikue's grandfather was too old to perform the escape magic perfectly, so he died on the stage.

"What's wrong with you? You only idolize people who are no longer around. My crush is on the currently popular Sanada Kazuzo! What about you guys?"

Naoko Kuroda replied that Kazuzo Sanada was also the eldest disciple of Kyujuku Motoyasu. The Suzuki family had invited him to impersonate Kaito Kid before. His strength was quite good, otherwise he would not have been able to complete the task of impersonating Kid.

"As for me! Of course it's Kaito Kidd!" Sonoko said seriously.

Xiaolan almost fell headfirst onto the dining table, thinking, "Sonoko, do your family know about this?" Kaito Kidd has already released a preview and stolen a lot of things from your house.

Although it was returned later, what kind of person is it that likes Kidd? If Sonoko's mother hears it, she will probably give you another scolding.

But when Xiaolan turned around and looked at Fujiwara Hiroshi beside her, she saw that he didn't say anything, so she didn't know what to say.

Meanwhile, Doi Takeshu, who was standing nearby, broke out in a cold sweat when he heard that the magician Sonoko admired was actually himself.

"But he is a thief?" Ara Yoshinori also broke out in a cold sweat. He never thought that Sonoko could answer the question of Kaito Kid.

"No one can compare to Kidd..." Sonoko remained firm in her answer.

"Your Prince Charming couldn't be..." Xiaolan seemed to have suddenly thought of something, and asked Sonoko in a low voice.

"That's right! Is it not possible?" Sonoko asked Xiaolan back.

----

"Hurry up! Uncle, go faster!" Ever since Conan knew that Xiaolan might be in danger, he has been urging Kogoro Mouri to drive faster.

"Stop talking nonsense! I'm driving at the fastest speed!" Kogoro Mouri said impatiently to Conan.

Conan sighed in his heart that the speed at which Kogoro Mouri drove was probably not as fast as his skateboard.

"What's going on?" Kogoro Mouri saw a fiery red color not far from the villa near the mountain resort, which looked particularly abrupt against the white snow scene.

"Uncle, it seems like there is a fire! Could it be..." Conan said anxiously beside him.

An ominous premonition shrouded the entire carriage, and Kogoro Mouri and Conan's hearts sank to the bottom. Although Fujiwara Hiroshi's analysis was very accurate, the murderer had already killed one person, and his actions were unintentional. Xiaolan and the others were in critical situation.

Moreover, the fire was seen in the direction of the villa. Maori Kogoro was also worried that the murderer was so cruel that he would directly set fire to the villa. Even if Fujiwara Hiroshi was there, they would still be worried about such indiscriminate attack power.

Conan already had a bad cold, and now his heart was in his throat. He could only worry secretly in his heart.

"Xiaolan, you must wait for me!" Conan, who was originally a little drowsy, was now relying entirely on his willpower to support him.

The suspension bridge was about to burn down, and the people in the villa were completely blocked from their only way out. By the time Conan and the others returned to the suspension bridge, the fire was already unstoppable.

Conan looked at the suspension bridge in front of him that had been burned by 80%, and Conan only left one sentence.

"Uncle, hurry up and call the police! Tell them to come over!"

After Conan finished speaking, he took a step back and took a short run-up, then flew towards the crumbling suspension bridge.

Kogoro Mouri looked at Conan's actions and wanted to pull him back. After all, the suspension bridge would find it difficult to bear the weight after burning to this extent.

As a result, Mouri Kogoro missed and failed to grab Conan. Just when he was about to pull Conan back, the oncoming heat wave forced Mouri Kogoro back.

In just a moment, Conan had already run onto the suspension bridge and ran a long way. When Conan ran half the distance, the suspension bridge was about to collapse.

When Conan was about 10 meters away from running out of the suspension bridge, the suspension bridge behind him had broken, and Conan secretly cried out that it was not good...

At this critical moment, Conan took a leap of faith, and then added the blessing of Conan's protagonist halo and luck.

At the last moment, Conan successfully flew to the other side, and then the suspension bridge behind him was burned and fell into the abyss in the mountains.

After Conan rushed out of the suspension bridge, he rolled over several times on the snow due to inertia. The heavy snow today helped Conan a lot.

Otherwise, the high temperature from rushing across the burning suspension bridge would roast Conan to death. In addition, the ground was not covered with heavy snow, so even if Conan rushed up the cliff, he would still face the danger of protruding rocks on the ground.

Then Conan struggled to get up and staggered towards the villa. Unfortunately, Conan, who already had a cold and a high fever, could not withstand the burning flames.

Conan fell headfirst into the snow in front of the villa door and passed out. Before he passed out, he was still shouting in his heart, calling out Xiaolan's name.

To be honest, it was not easy. If it weren't for Conan's strong willpower and the belief in saving Xiaolan, he would have given up long ago.

Perhaps he had already been lying motionless on the ground the moment he flew out of the suspension bridge, and he survived entirely with faith. It seemed very touching, but in fact it was of no use at all.

Not to mention that there is Fujiwara Hiroshi who is protecting Xiaolan and Sonoko. Even if Xiaolan is alone there, it is better than taking care of a patient like Conan.

Conan had no other role except bringing the news that the chat room leader had been killed. Moreover, without Conan, Xiaolan could be more flexible on her own.

Now that Conan, the sick one, has come to the side, Xiaolan has to spend more time to take care of Conan. If Fujiwara Hiroshi knew about it, apart from criticizing Conan for being self-indulgent, it would have a completely counterproductive effect.

Even without the news brought by Conan, Fujiwara Hiroshi had already predicted that a case was going to happen here, and even firmly asked Kogoro Mouri to call the police as soon as he got to a place with a signal.

On the other side, Kogoro Mouri was intercepted by the heat wave of the raging fire and missed the opportunity to pull Conan back, so when he saw Conan flying to the other side at the last moment from a distance, he breathed a sigh of relief!

Immediately afterwards, Kogoro Mouri did not dare to hesitate at all. He quickly got into his car and drove down the mountain. There was no signal on the mountain now. There was no other way. He had to go to a place with signal at the foot of the mountain to call the police.

----

Conan outside the villa was unconscious, and the people inside the villa had no idea that the suspension bridge outside had been burned and the only way out was blocked.

Blizzard Villa has been completely completed, and the laughter and joy of the crowd make the villa full of a comfortable atmosphere at this time.

"It's not impossible, but Kaito Kid is a thief after all. It feels weird and inappropriate to like him." Xiaolan whispered to Sonoko.

"Don't worry, Ran! Mr. Kidd's magic is superb. You can tell from the fact that so many policemen can't do anything to him.

Especially that officer named Nakamori, who's said to have been chasing Kidd for nearly 20 years. The last time he came to my house to help, he boasted about how powerful he was and how well he knew Kidd, but in the end, he was still fooled by Kidd-sama!

Sonoko spoke very loudly about Kidd's great achievements, but Sonoko believed that these great achievements were so great that others would be ashamed to agree with them.

(Officer Nakamori, his teeth bared, was furious: "You're swearing really badly! Try it again?")

Fortunately, Officer Nakamori wasn't at the scene, otherwise he would have been furious! Doi Takeshu, who was standing by, broke out in a cold sweat when he heard Sonoko say this.

"Maya! Even an ordinary person knows that Uncle Nakamori was badly bullied by Kaito Kid? Then if Aoko knew that I am Kid..." Doi Takeki didn't dare to think further after thinking about this.

The scene was so beautiful and crazy. It was considered a light punishment that Aoko tore Kaito's hand apart. The more terrifying scene was when he thought about the scene of himself being fed fish crazily by Aoko. Just thinking about it made him break out in cold sweat.

"Haha, haha~ Okay, Yuanzi! As long as you like it!" Xiaolan also knew that she couldn't persuade Yuanzi, so she gave up decisively and let Yuanzi do whatever she wanted.

"But there's one strange thing. Logically speaking, Mr. Kidd has been pursued by Officer Nakamori for about 20 years, so he should be at least middle-aged by now.

But judging from the last time Kidd-sama came to my house and the way he and I met, I always felt that Kidd-sama should be a young man! This is very strange! "

Sonoko was confused about Kid's age, and her mumbling scared Doi Takeshu who was standing next to her.

"Oh no! Has my age difference been discovered? Should I pretend to be more mature next time?" Doi Takeshu also felt guilty.

After all, he is the second generation Kidd. No one has thought of this problem yet. Once someone discovers this blind spot in thinking, his situation will not be good!

Fujiwara Hiroshi: I noticed that Doi Takeshu was feeling unnatural. Although I had forgotten the details of this case, it was impossible for me to remember every case.

But I have the impression that Kidd often makes guest appearances in Conan's daily cases, such as the most famous one where he pretends to be Kogoro Mouri in Twilight Annex.

Well, this time it happens to be a chat room party of the Magicians Lovers League. As a magician, it makes sense for Kidd to appear at the scene in a disguised identity!
