"Why, I heard you have a cold?"
"Ah, it's better now!" Conan blinked cutely. For some reason, the moment Hiratsuka Shizuka's eyes swept over him, Conan felt like he was being stared at by a beast.
"You are very brave, kid. You even dare to cross a bridge on fire, huh? Aren't you worried about falling down?" Shizuka Hiratsuka took two steps in front of Conan, pressed Conan's head down in annoyance, and rubbed it hard.
"Aunt Jing, I know I was wrong!" Regardless of the discomfort on his head, Conan apologized without saying a word.
"Hmph!" Looking at Conan's obedient appearance, Shizuka Hiratsuka snorted lightly, then lowered her head and put her mouth close to Conan's ear.
"But you performed well. That's what a man should do."
"Hey, hehe~" After being stunned for a moment, Conan couldn't help but laugh foolishly after he came to his senses.
At this moment, he felt happier than when he had solved a difficult case!
After all, Shizuka Hiratsuka rarely praises herself so directly.
"Um, young lady, may I know who you are?" Looking blankly at Shizuka Hiratsuka and Ran, Sonoko and the others exchanged a few words. Then, as the owner of the villa, Ara Yoshinori pursed his lips, and his somewhat awkward voice broke the atmosphere.
"Ah, hello everyone. I must have scared you by coming here suddenly." Letting go of Sonoko in her arms, Shizuka Hiratsuka smiled at everyone openly.
"My name is Shizuka Hiratsuka, and I'm the elder of these three children."
. . .
"Crosscross, I didn't expect that someone still uses this thing." Shizuka Hiratsuka casually picked up the abandoned crossbow that Conan and the others found outside, and operated it skillfully in the somewhat horrified eyes of everyone, then placed the arrow on it and pulled the trigger.
"Buzz!~" The tail end kept shaking in the air. Looking at the arrow that she had casually shot into the wall, Shizuka Hiratsuka nodded slightly.
"It's quite powerful, enough to kill ordinary people."
"...Um, Aunt Jing, how did you get here?" Shocked by Hiratsuka Shizuka's fierce actions and comments, Ara Yoshinori and the others, who originally had many questions, all shut their mouths honestly. In the end, it was Xiaolan who calmed down and asked softly.
"Yes, Sister Jing, hasn't the bridge been burned down?" She nodded excitedly. After Hiratsuka Jing arrived, all the fear and anxiety in her heart were gone, and Sonoko became active again.
"I used the hook and slid over the rope."
"Wow! Is that like a ninja?!"
"It's okay, quite simple, but the hook is still a little strong. It broke right after I got over it." Picking up the glass casually, Shizuka Hiratsuka didn't hesitate to take the opened bottle of red wine and poured herself a glass.
"As expected of Sister Shizuka!" Without a doubt, Sonoko, Hiratsuka Shizuka's number one fan, looked at Hiratsuka Shizuka with shining eyes.
"Aunt Jing is so awesome." Xiaolan nodded with a smile and was very supportive.
"...You really are not a human being." Conan muttered with a slight twitch in the corner of his eyes.
'Pervert!' The twitching feeling in his stomach became more pronounced, and Kidd looked away with difficulty.
He felt that he could no longer look Hiratsuka Shizuka in the eye.
"So, something really happened on your side." Looking at the crossbow on the table, Shizuka Hiratsuka, who had already heard Sonoko quickly recount what happened, glanced at Conan beside her with a subtle expression.
"Only one person died?"
"Hello! (#`O′)" The voice was a little low, but Conan, who was very close, still heard Hiratsuka Shizuka's voice at the first time.
"Um?(?(?) "
"Ahem, it's okay."
"So have you investigated it clearly?" Without paying attention to Conan's frustration, Shizuka Hiratsuka drank the wine in the glass and asked casually.
"There are no clues yet." Shaking her head slightly, Sonoko responded to Hiratsuka Shizuka's words.
"Really? Then there's no rush." Nodding in understanding, Shizuka Hiratsuka took out her cell phone as if she had thought of something.
"Xiao Lan, give Brother Kogoro a call. He should have driven down the mountain by now. Let him know he's safe."
"Okay!" After taking the phone obediently, Xiaolan sat down and tried to contact Kogoro Mouri.
"I don't know anything about the case. You guys should do your best." After glancing at Conan and getting a response from him, Shizuka Hiratsuka felt relieved.
"But I can still protect your safety. As long as you don't run around arrogantly, it will be fine. When the wind and snow stop tomorrow morning, the police should be able to come up the mountain to rescue you. So just make it through this night."
"Of course, if the murderer is among you, I also advise you to stay here and not do anything tricky." The corners of her mouth suddenly curled up slowly, Shizuka Hiratsuka tilted her body slightly, raised her right hand and placed it on the wooden protruding handle on the top of the chair back behind Xiaolan.
"Crack!" There was a crisp sound of breaking, and everyone in the living room widened their eyes again.
"Pah~Pah~" Shizuka Hiratsuka smiled kindly after brushing the sawdust off her hands.
"Does everyone understand?"
"Uh-huh!!"
Chapter 308: I didn't expect you to call me, Chris
"Aunt Jing, I've already contacted Dad."
The noise in the room became quiet for a moment. Looking at Shizuka Hiratsuka who was sitting quietly in her seat drinking, everyone suddenly felt that the woman in front of them seemed to be more terrifying than the murderer hiding somewhere.
Of course, the people here definitely do not include Sonoko, Ran and Conan.
"Oh, is your dad relieved?" Shizuka Hiratsuka took the phone from Xiaolan's hand and had no intention of drinking any more after emptying the red wine in her glass.
It's okay to drink a little to warm up the body, but we have important things to do now, and it would be bad if we get drunk.
"Well, Dad said that the police will come to pick us up tomorrow morning." Xiaolan nodded with a smile. She was now completely relaxed.
"Really? Then let's have a good rest. Don't leave the living room unless there is something special." After glancing at everyone in the living room, Shizuka Hiratsuka hesitated for a moment and stood up.
"Wait here for a moment, I'll go out and check the situation."
"Okay, we got it, Sister Jing!" With a thought in her mind, Sonoko, who originally wanted to pester Hiratsuka Shizuka to go with her, was firmly controlled by Hiratsuka Shizuka's eyes and sat on the chair. She could only nod obediently to indicate that she would not make trouble.
"Well, just wait patiently." With a slight glance, Shizuka Hiratsuka slowly walked out of the living room door.
"Um, Miss Xiaolan, is your aunt really okay?" After hesitating for a moment, although he had seen Hiratsuka Shizuka's display of force before, Ara Yoshinori was still a little worried. After all, the murderer had taken out a crossbow as a weapon. Who knows if the other party had other dangerous things on him.
"Don't worry, there will be no problem with Aunt Jing here. We just need to wait patiently." Shaking her head slightly, Xiaolan, who had already heard her plan from Hiratsuka Shizuka's words before, focused her attention and looked at everyone in the living room cautiously.
It doesn't matter if the murderer is really not one of these people, but if the murderer is in the living room now, I have to keep a close eye on them while Shizuka Hiratsuka is out!
If the opponent is a human, Xiaolan is still very brave!
. . .
"So he followed me out." Leaning against the corridor wall not far from the living room door, Shizuka Hiratsuka turned her head with a smile and looked at Conan who sneaked out behind her.
"Didn't you let me out?" Conan shook his head helplessly and complained softly.
"It doesn't matter." Shizuka Hiratsuka waved her hand lazily and turned her gaze to Conan.
"Well, have you reached a conclusion yet?"
"Well, we have almost figured it out. All we have to do next is to prepare and restore the crime scene to show them. Then we will have enough evidence to make the suspect confess." The eyes on the bridge of his nose reflected light slightly. Conan raised his head confidently and said with confidence.
"Okay, I actually checked the surroundings before entering the villa. Apart from the body lying on the snow, there was no other person around. It seems that the murderer is the person in the living room." Twisting her neck, Shizuka Hiratsuka also wanted to catch the murderer as soon as possible, and then suppress him, and slowly wait for the arrival of the police tomorrow.
"Well, I'll go get ready now."
"Go, go." Shizuka Hiratsuka waved her hand and, having already confirmed that there was no danger outside, didn't mind letting Conan act on his own.
"By the way, Aunt Jing, can you do me a favor this time~" Conan's excited footsteps suddenly stopped, he touched his head and smiled naively at Hiratsuka Jing.
"What?" Shizuka Hiratsuka frowned slightly, as if she had thought of something, revealing an undisguised disgust.
"I won't let you reason with my voice."
"Then what should I do? I can't use anyone else. What Xiaolan said is not appropriate either." Looking at Shizuka Hiratsuka seriously, Conan argued.
He would never admit that he did it just to satisfy his own evil desire to use Hiratsuka Shizuka's voice to deduce things.
"Don't we still have the garden?" Blinking, Shizuka Hiratsuka subconsciously evaded the question.
"Aunt Jing." The look in Conan's eyes suddenly became one of surprise and disgust, and he spoke in a teasing tone.
"You are the elder, are you so irresponsible that you let your juniors bear this kind of thing?~"
"...Tsk, you're really something." Conan choked her and she was speechless. Shizuka Hiratsuka stretched out her hand in shame and anger and put it on his head and started rubbing it hard.
"Okay, I'll tell you, just this once, ya hear me?"
"No problem!~Thank you Aunt Jing!~"
"Hurry up and get your stuff ready, and stop hanging around in front of me!"
"Yes!~"
. . .
The reasoning went very smoothly. Although she reluctantly let Conan borrow her voice, Shizuka Hiratsuka really couldn't do something like letting Conan use an anesthetic needle to confuse Sonoko and then fall on the snow outside to make the reasoning.
Yuanzi was wearing a short skirt. If she fell on the snow with her legs bare, she might catch a cold.
Shizuka Hiratsuka tried hard to pretend to speak and cooperate with Conan who was hiding behind her and constantly reasoning about the case. She felt a little novel to have this kind of unique participation.
Of course, what surprised Shizuka Hiratsuka the most was the fat man who was helping Xiaolan use the crossbow on the second-floor balcony after the case reasoning was completed.
Shizuka Hiratsuka never imagined that the person could be played by Kaito Kid.
Of course, after Shizuka Hiratsuka came down the mountain the next day, Kaito immediately called Shizuka Hiratsuka to apologize.
"Okay, I've already told you it's okay. Are you annoying?" After hanging up Kaito's phone for the third time, Shizuka Hiratsuka pinched her nose bridge with a headache.
Perhaps worried that Shizuka Hiratsuka would flee the scene after he knocked Xiaolan unconscious, Kuroba Kaito called Shizuka Hiratsuka for the third time today. He explained sincerely that his movements were absolutely gentle, and he definitely did not touch any places he should not have touched. The medicine he used was also a good medicine that was completely harmless to humans.
This guilty and nervous behavior made Shizuka Hiratsuka feel helpless and a little guilty at the same time.
"It seems that Fujiko and I scared the child enough." Shaking her head helplessly, Shizuka Hiratsuka looked at the early time, stretched herself and stood up from the sofa.
"Come on, handsome, I'll take you out for a midnight snack~"
"Meow~" He jumped down from the cat climbing frame, and Shuai Shuai lightly leaped onto Shizuka Hiratsuka's shoulder and lay down.
"Well, so good~" Hiratsuka Shizuka happily scratched Shuai Shuai's chin with her hand, changed her shoes, and walked out of the apartment lightly.
"Dingling bell~"
"Hmm?" The action of closing the door paused slightly. Shizuka Hiratsuka picked up the phone curiously, and her eyes widened slightly when she looked at the name of the call displayed.
"Hey, I didn't expect you to call me, Chris~"
Chapter 309: 301 I don’t believe there would be any accidents if I go there alone!
"I haven't contacted you for a long time, Jing."
As usual, the gentle and charming voice came from the phone. Shizuka Hiratsuka could hear that Chris must be in a good mood.
"Ah, after all, Chris, you're a big star, so it's normal for you to be busy."
Holding the phone in one hand, Shizuka Hiratsuka pressed the elevator button.
"Is there something you want to talk to me about this time?"
"I wanted to be quiet, so I called."
"Oh, is that so." He smiled and shook his head. If Fujiko and Shizuka Hiratsuka spoke like this, Shizuka Hiratsuka might have to think for a moment whether the other party was teasing her, but if it was Chris, Shizuka Hiratsuka was used to it and would treat it as a normal greeting.
After all, when I went to the Lighthouse Country during the summer vacation, Chris was also so enthusiastic and expressed it without any ambiguity.
"I miss you a little too. I was thinking about inviting you to Neon when you have time during your vacation, Chris."
"Really? That's great." On the other end of the phone, Chris's tone suddenly became excited.
"Jing, I'm going to Neon soon. Let's get together then."
"Okay! You are coming to Neon!" Shizuka Hiratsuka nodded happily. She really liked entertaining friends.
"Is it a holiday? Or do you have some filming assignment?"
"There's a memorial service for a colleague I need to attend. They've already sent me an invitation. After all, he's a senior who knew my mother well, so I have to go and take a look."
"Is that so? It seems it's not easy for you either, going back and forth all the time." She nodded in understanding, but Shizuka Hiratsuka didn't have a good impression of memorial services.
When it comes to paying homage to someone who has passed away, the thought behind it is what's important. Shizuka Hiratsuka doesn't like memorial services, which are lively and lively banquets where people greet each other under the guise of commemorating the deceased.
"It's okay, but after the memorial service, I'll have some free time. Then I'll have to trouble Jing. I'm not very familiar with Neon." I have to admit that even if I haven't seen her in person, just hearing her voice with a hint of pleading and charm is enough to make people unable to refuse her words.
Even though they are both women, Shizuka Hiratsuka has to admit that if the naturally charming Chris intentionally exudes her charm, she may be slightly better than Fujiko.
