Being in Detective Conan, being officially part of the organization is just too awesome!

"Heh, heh heh..."

Lin Jiayou forced a stiff smile onto his face.

Kogoro Mouri really seems to be obsessed with being called the "plague detective"...

As he silently pondered this, Shiho Miyano cast a cold glance his way.

Lin Jiayou turned his head stiffly, only to see a cold glint in Shirley's eyes, the meaning of which was clearly...

When did you go to play mahjong?

Why don't I know!

Lin Jiayou blinked innocently.

It seems this matter has indeed been reported and disclosed...

Sherry snorted coldly.

I'll settle the score with you later!

Today I went to play mahjong with older men, so tomorrow I'll have to go to PC with them?

Lin Jiayou's lips twitched, and there was a hint of helplessness in his eyes.

Over there, Kogoro Mouri was still rambling on and on.

"By the way, when we get back to Tokyo, I wonder if Brother Lin will still have time. Nanchuan is in the hospital, and we're really missing a master like you..."

Sherry's eyes widened.

Still going?!

The next step is definitely PC!

Lin Jiayou chuckled twice, expressionless.

“Mr. Mori, I may not have time. We can discuss it later.”

"Oh, what a pity,"

Kogoro Mouri patted Lin Jiayou on the shoulder with a regretful expression.

"I thought you were pretty good, and I was even thinking of taking you to do something exciting..."

"father!"

As Ran and Conan walked over, they heard their father speaking rudely, which immediately enraged Kogoro Mouri, who went straight up and punched him.

boom--

"Ouch--"

Kogoro Mouri clutched his head, groaning in pain.

He turned his head and saw his daughter glaring at him angrily.

How could you drag someone into doing that kind of thing!

"what the hell!"

Kogoro Mouri cried out that he was innocent.

"I just wanted to take Brother Lin to bet on horses!"

"......"

Xiaolan's previously furious expression froze instantly, and her lips twitched.

"Yes, is that so?"

"of course!"

Kogoro Mouri immediately pointed at Shiho Miyano, trying to prove himself.

"Brother Lin's girlfriend is still here!"

"How could I possibly say something like that in front of someone's girlfriend!"

Upon hearing Kogoro Mouri's words, Ran, who felt they made a valid point, blushed deeply.

Especially since it happened in front of acquaintances, I was being quite disrespectful to my father, which would be considered very impolite by others.

So, Xiaolan quickly bowed to Lin Jiayou and Miyano Shiho.

"I'm sorry, I was rude just now."

"No no,"

Shiho Miyano immediately responded with a smile.

"Miss Mori and your father's relationship is truly enviable."

After exchanging a few casual words, Kogoro Mouri and the others chose to sit down next to Yoshiyu Hayashi and his group.

Anyway, it doesn't matter where you sit, at least there are some acquaintances here, so it's good to chat.

Feelings develop quickly between women; in just a few words, Shiho Miyano had already become acquainted with Ran and Kazuha.

Lin Jiayou and Mouri Kogoro chatted casually, but it was mostly Mouri Kogoro who was bragging and talking nonsense.

It must be said, this old guy's knowledge is truly extensive, and his emotional intelligence is very high; everyone who talks to him feels very comfortable...

As for Conan and Heiji Hattori, those two little detectives.........

They have been excluded and have formed their own circle.

The content of the chat was, unsurprisingly, about Lin Jiayou...

"Conan, Conan, is this the Detective Hayashi you were talking about?"

Heiji Hattori instinctively wanted to call out Conan's real name again, but under the other's murderous gaze, he quickly changed his mind.

Even if they think they've lowered their voices, they can't be careless.

Who knows what extraordinary ability Mr. Lin has to hear them talking?

Conan remained extremely skeptical about this...

You should know that when Ran told him that this Mr. Lin was a master of ancient Chinese martial arts, Conan had already searched for a lot of information in an attempt to know himself and his enemy.

After reading many of Jin Yong's, Gu Long's, Huang Tingjian's, Liang Qichao's, and Wen Ruian's works, he became increasingly serious about Mr. Lin.

While the claim of shattering the void in the book is likely an exaggeration, Conan believes that the skills of scaling walls, hearing sounds, and striking targets from a distance are still quite believable.

Therefore, before knowing what skills the other party possessed, Conan believed they should avoid revealing too much information in front of Mr. Lin...

"Yes, this is Mr. Lin."

Conan looked at Lin Jiayou not far away and spoke softly.

His eyes held a thoughtful glint, as if he were pondering something...

Upon seeing Conan's posture, Heiji Hattori, as his old buddy, instantly understood.

He leaned close to Conan's ear and whispered something.

"You suspect that this Mr. Lin is also........."

"Not very likely."

Conan shook his head and hesitated before speaking.

He didn't elaborate on the specific reasons to Hattori Heiji, but instead went on to say...

"I'm thinking, could we cooperate with him...?"

"cooperate?"

Hattori Heiji was slightly taken aback.

He was about to press for more information when he saw Conan wave his hand and then close his eyes.

Heiji Hattori knew that Kudo was about to put his brilliant mind to work and start thinking intently.

This is true.

Conan begins to activate his super intelligence, recalling scenes related to Lin Jiayou.

The first step is to determine if the other party is a bad dog.

Based on the principles of interpersonal relationships previously proposed by Heiji Hattori, Conan quickly arrived at a conclusion—

No!

Mr. Lin is not a bad dog!

Judging from his close relationship with Kogoro Mouri, while having little contact with himself, it's clear that Mr. Hayashi doesn't care about his existence.

This attitude is vastly different from that of Amuro Tooru and Grace, who had already been judged as bad dogs by Conan and Hattori Heiji.

Prior to this, I had met Mr. Lin three times, and each time he proactively helped me solve the case.

Although he initially harbored some hostility towards his own identity as Shinichi Kudo, Conan, with his strong sense of justice, was fully able to accept those criticisms.

Even now, in Conan's mind, what the other person said, which seemed like criticism, was actually guidance.

If it weren't for the other party's guidance, I might have been branded as someone who assaulted a suspect in the Seiha case.

His own reputation is not important; Conan is not someone who values ​​empty fame. However, if it affects Inspector Megure and the resolution of the case, that is something he cannot tolerate.

This shows that Mr. Lin Jiayou is truly a kind-hearted person with a sharp tongue, a senior colleague who couldn't help but use pointed words to remind me of my mistakes. I should learn from him...
