Model worker and his little darling

"Hey, how about it? How about we go on a beach vacation in Izu this time?"

Thinking back to his unpleasant memories of his last trip to Izu, Taira no longer had a good impression of the place.

Seeing Pingqing's lazy appearance, Yuanzi moved closer to him and said with a malicious look, "Pingqing-nii, you're not afraid to go into the water like last time because of something on your body, are you?"

Taira no Kiyoshi: ...

This matter is not going to be resolved, is it?

"What? Sonoko, don't overthink it. I'll go with you."

Uncle Mori looked at Hirai and asked curiously, "What, Hirai can't swim?"

"Uncle, I want to tell you..."

Sonoko rattled off what had happened last time, making the uncle's gaze towards Heikiri turn mocking.

"You young people really know how to have fun."

Pingqing was speechless. Why did he have to come over and try to connect with the old man?

"I remember last time I attended Teiji Moriya's party, there was a maid-sister who stared at Hirakiyo-nii for a long time and even said she liked him. Hirakiyo-nii, you already have a girlfriend, do you still like other girls?"

Conan said this in the most innocent and adorable tone and with the most cute expression.

Instantly, Ran and Sonoko's eyes fell on Hirai, looking at him like he was a scumbag.

"Sigh, I thought Pingqing was a good man, but I didn't expect him to be such a womanizer."

Taira no Kiyoshi: ...

He's vomiting blood...

He didn't do anything, so how did he become a scumbag?

He grabbed Conan and gave him a good rub.

"Conan, you're still young, you don't understand adult matters. When I saw that maid, I thought of my girlfriend, which is why I said I liked her. Actually, I was thinking about my girlfriend."

Heh, Conan, very well, I'll show you what it means to be utterly humiliated.

Conan sensed the deep malice emanating from Hirai, and shrank back. Wasn't he wrong?

After Pingqing explained, Xiaolan and Sonoko believed him, while the uncle gave Pingqing a knowing look.

Back home, Pingqing immediately had the system upload the photos of Conan in women's clothing from last time to the internet, and also made a short video and sent it to the media outlets he frequently contacted, instructing them to spread it as quickly as possible. He'd been spending money to support them; now it was time to get things done.

The next morning, the group got into the car the uncle had rented and headed towards Izu.

Suddenly, Pingqing took out a photo of Conan dressed as a woman and stared at it intently.

"Conan, have you ever worn a skirt before?"

Conan pounced on Pingqing with his claws outstretched, "Why would I wear a skirt? Pingqing-nii, don't talk nonsense."

Suddenly, Conan remembered the time in Izu when he was drugged by the man in black, dressed in a skirt, and stuffed under the bed. Since Hirai wasn't there then, how would he know about the skirt incident? A suspicious look instantly crossed his face at Hirai.

"Brother Pingqing, how did you know I was wearing a skirt?"

Pingqing handed the photo on his phone to Conan and said with a smile, "I saw it online. I looked at it for a long time before I was sure it was you. I even saved this photo."

Sonoko came over as soon as she heard this, "Let me see, I've never seen the little brat wearing a skirt before."

Hirakiyo kindly sent the photos to Sonoko and Ran.

Conan was shocked. How did this photo get uploaded online? Was the man in black looking for him? No, he had to ask Dr. Agasa to delete this photo.

Ran, who was sitting to the side, also came over to look at the photo. "This is what happened when we went to Izu last time. Conan looks so cute in a skirt."

After saying that, he also told Taira no Kiyoshi and Sonoko about what happened to them in Izu last time.

At that moment, a voice came over the loudspeaker: "We have received a request for help from a woman whose child has gone missing. She wants to use the power of society to find her child. According to the woman, the child was wearing a pink princess dress when she went missing. She suffers from chronic renal failure, is deaf and blind, and her photo is currently circulating online. Now let's hear what this woman has to say."

Then came the desperate, heart-wrenching voice of a woman crying, "Please, kind people, help me find my child! She's so young, and she's suffered so much..."

Upon hearing this, the uncle immediately pulled over to the side of the road and stared at Conan with a suspicious look.

Conan was also completely bewildered. He had initially thought the organization was looking for him, but then a woman appeared, saying that he was blind and deaf, which was completely beyond his expectations.

Uncle Mori stroked his chin. "You little brat, you haven't gotten involved in some strange incident, have you? Why is a woman coming to see you? I remember last time you said your mother's woman was a bad person. By the way, aren't your parents' affairs finished yet?"

Seeing that the older man was starting to doubt his identity again, Conan was terrified and stammered to the older man, "I think... he... they've been so busy that they forgot about me."

Uncle Mori frowned. "I'll contact Yukiko when I get back and ask her to give me your parents' phone number. They're so irresponsible; they don't even bother to call and check on their child."

Ran patted Conan's head. "Dad, I think Conan's parents also have their own difficulties. They may have encountered some problems and have to bear them alone."

Conan stared at Ran in shock, wondering how she could say such a thing.

Looking at Conan's little expression, Hirai found it somewhat amusing. The detective, who was extremely perceptive about cases, was so oblivious to Ran.

"Ahem, sir, the person in this photo is clearly Conan, but now someone is messing with him. Shouldn't we clarify this?"

Uncle Mori nodded. "I think we should publish a statement in the newspaper."

"Brother Pingqing, aren't you very knowledgeable about computers? Can you find out who posted the photos?" Conan asked Pingqing expectantly.

Ping Qing spread his hands, "There's no computer now, so there's nothing I can do."

Seeing the somber atmosphere in the car, Sonoko patted Conan's head to comfort him, "Alright, kid, we all know you've been framed. I think we should go back and deal with Conan's matter first."

"Uncle, let's go to Professor Agasa's house. He might have already found out something."

Seeing that no one had any objections, the uncle restarted the car and headed towards Professor Agasa's house.

On the bus, everyone was pondering what exactly was going on.

“Uncle, I think that man in black has his eye on Conan, or rather, you guys. After all, you solved that case, and you were recently commended by the Metropolitan Police Department. I think we should resolve it quickly; the longer it drags on, the greater the impact will be.”

Hearing this, Ran glanced worriedly at Uncle Mori and Conan.

Conan lowered his head and began to brainstorm. The man in black said he wanted to investigate him and Ai Haibara, but why release this photo? His appearance that day shouldn't have reminded anyone of Shinichi Kudo or Ai Haibara.

Thinking of this, Conan scratched his head vigorously. Damn it, what on earth is going on?
