Science solves cases? No, I am an immortal cultivator!

the next day.

Kitagawa Taki and Maori Kogoro each drove a car and took everyone to Osaka.

After arriving in Osaka, everyone drove directly to the Hattori family according to the address given by Hattori Heiji.

Looking at the vast traditional courtyard in front of him, Maori Kogoro exclaimed, "It's worthy of being the home of the head of the Osaka Prefecture!"

The Hattori family's style is Japanese, with an antique feel.

Hattori Heiji, Ikenami Shizuka and Toyama Kazuha were already waiting at the door.

"Welcome everyone!" Shizuka Ikenami was wearing a navy blue kimono today. She seemed to love this kind of dark, plain kimono, which gave people a low-key and restrained feeling.

Toyama Kazuha wore a T-shirt and a floral miniskirt, looking youthful and energetic.

She helped to greet the girls.

Hattori Heiji grinned with his big white teeth and greeted Conan.

Conan rolled his eyes. He learned from Kogoro Mouri that it was Hattori Heiji who specifically asked him to come.

If he could go out and play with Xiaolan in the past, he would definitely be happy, but now he just wants to focus on solving the case, especially when he knows that Kitagawa Taki is also going.

But Kogoro Mouri learned from Conan that Yukiko Fujimine had temporarily gone to the United States, so he dragged him into the car without saying a word.

So, Conan was forced to come to Osaka.

Ikenami Shizuka's gaze also shifted to Conan. Conan felt uneasy under her stare and smiled innocently.

Ikenami Shizuka smiled faintly, withdrew her gaze, and continued to greet Kitagawa Taki and Mori Kogoro.

"Is this beautiful lady Mr. Kitagawa's girlfriend?" Ikenami Shizuka looked at Miyano Akemi and asked.

Miyano Akemi quickly explained: "You misunderstood, my name is Miyazaki Miho, and I am Taki's assistant."

"I'm sorry." Ikenami Shizuka apologized.

Then, she leaned forward slightly to look at Huiyuan Ai and said, "Then this little girl must be Xiao Ai, right?"

"Well, hello, my name is Huiyuan Ai."

I don’t know if it was because Ikenami Shizuka praised Miyano Akemi, but Haibara Ai broke her usual behavior, smiled sweetly, and greeted Ikenami Shizuka.

"Ai really likes you, Aunt Jinghua!" It was the first time that Toyama Kazuha saw Haibara Ai smile like this.

Xiaolan was also a little surprised, and felt a little lost at the same time.

She could see that Kitagawa Taki liked her "sister" Haibara Ai very much, and she also wanted to get Haibara Ai's approval, but Haibara Ai didn't seem to like her very much.

It was fine at first, but then I felt something changed, although it wasn't very obvious and I didn't know why.

Noticing that Xiaolan was a little absent-minded, Yuanshan Heye shook Xiaolan's arm and asked with concern: "Xiaolan, what's wrong with you?"

"It's okay." Xiaolan came back to her senses, shook her head, and changed the subject: "The Hattori family is really impressive!"

Toyama and Ye smiled and said, "Heiji's house is really big. I even got lost here when I was a kid!"

……

Led by Ikenami Shizuka, everyone came to the living room.

Seeing that Hattori Heizo didn't seem to be at home, Maori Kogoro asked: "Madam, I wonder if Chief Hattori..."

Ikebo Shizuka made tea for them and explained, "There was a recent cremation murder case, and he's still busy. He won't be back until tonight."

Conan's expression changed when he heard about the murder.

Hattori Heiji curled his lips and said, "He may not come back at night. He is busy every day!"

It’s not that he has lost interest in solving the case, but he has no say in the case that his father personally handled, and he solved the case in no time.

However, what Hattori Heiji said made it difficult for everyone to respond.

It was still Ikenami Shizuka who glared at Hattori Heiji.

Then, he said, "Let's all stay here so we don't have to go out to stay in a hotel."

Maori Kogoro said politely: "How can this be so embarrassing!"

"It's okay, it's more lively with more people." Ikenami Shizuka smiled, and then without giving anyone a chance to refuse, she looked at Hattori Heiji and Toyama Kazuha and said, "Heiji and Kazuha will show everyone around, and then let everyone choose a room. I'll go cook first."

……

What Toyama Kazuha said before was not an exaggeration at all. The Hattori family's house was even bigger than it looked from the outside, with twists and turns like a maze.

I have to say that the detectives in Ming Keli all come from wealthy families.

Kitagawa Taki also thought that it was time to enjoy himself and move to a bigger house.

It's no problem for three people to live there, but if a guest comes, it will seem not enough.

The reason for choosing that place before was financial and business considerations, but now these are no longer a problem.

After some thought, Kitagawa Taki decided to discuss with Miyano Akemi and Haibara Ai after returning this time before making a decision.

……

It was almost noon when everyone put away their luggage and settled down under the arrangement of Hattori Heiji.

When we arrived at the restaurant, the table was already full of food.

The restaurant is also in Japanese style, with tatami on the floor and a long table with cushions instead of chairs underneath.

"Aunt Jinghua's cooking skills are really amazing!"

Xiaolan sighed as she looked at the dazzling array of exquisitely presented dishes on the table.

Ikebo Jinghua smiled and asked everyone to sit down: "Everyone, come and try it!"

The food is indeed amazing, as you can see from the way Kogoro Mori wolfs down his food without caring about his image.

Xiaolan looked at Kogoro Mouri's eating habits and gently bumped his hand.

Maori Kogoro then calmed down a bit and said with an embarrassed smile: "Madam's cooking skills are really amazing, better than those in restaurants outside!"

Ikenami Shizuka put down her chopsticks and said, "Mr. Maori, thank you for your compliment. It's fine as long as it suits your taste."

"In the afternoon, we'll take you on a tour of Osaka. Is there anywhere you'd like to go?"

Hattori Heiji noticed that Ikenami Shizuka said "we", so he asked, "Mom, are you going too?"

Yuanshan Heye was very happy: "Let's go, otherwise Aunt Jinghua will be so bored at home alone."

Ikenami Shizuka nodded.

"Madam, please recommend someone. We are not very familiar with each other." Kitagawa Taki said.

Actually, I have already been to several places when I came to Osaka before.

Ikenami Shizuka suggested, "How about we go to Osaka Castle first?"

Naturally, everyone had no objection. Although they had been to the vicinity of Osaka Castle when they captured Kidd last time, they had not taken a close look around.

……

Osaka Castle.

Castle tower observation deck.

"That circular building is Osaka Castle Hall. The tall buildings across from it are the Osaka business district. Behind the buildings is the News Bureau. Although you can't see it from here, it's Osaka's most famous landmark..."

Toyama Kazuha enthusiastically introduced Osaka to everyone.

Hattori Heiji held his chin and said boredly: "What's so good about these?"

Toyama Kazuha put away her smile and said unconvincedly, "Then which one do you think is more fun and interesting, Heiji?"

"Of course it's the Osaka Prefectural Police Headquarters!"

Hattori Heiji pointed straight ahead.
