Chapter 23 The Boy Detective Team Fighting a Monster (Part 1)

Time went back to half an hour before Ji Xing was attacked.

Maori Detective Agency.

Mao Lilan answered the ringing phone.

"Hello, this is the Maori Detective Agency, looking for my father? Please wait a moment."

"Dad! Dad! I have a commission!"

Mori Kogoro, who was watching Yoko Okino on TV, looked away reluctantly, and answered the phone: "Moshi Moshi, I'm Mori."

"Hello, Mr. Mori Detective, are you sober? I'm Kumashi Kuroki who called at noon." The person on the other side of the phone said.

Uh... Mao Li Kogoro glanced at Mao Lilan guilty, covered the microphone and said, "Yes, sorry, what do you want to entrust?"

"It's like this. We are Board Game Co., Ltd., and we want to find you to cooperate in the development of a new board game. You..."

"It's you! I remembered!" Mori Kogoro's voice suddenly became louder, "Didn't I warn you? If I call again, I will call the police and arrest you. What kind of board game company... Hey, it sounds a bit familiar?"

Not far away, Conan, who was doing his homework, raised his head instantly, and Mao Lilan said in surprise: "Tabletop Game Co., Ltd.? That's not Senior Ji Xing..."

"Mr. Maori Detective, please don't hang up the phone, we are not liars..." Kuroki Xiongzhi on the other side of the phone quickly explained.

Kogoro Mouri was stunned: "The president of your club is that brat Ji Xing Qixin?"

"...Mr. Maori Detective, please show some respect to our president!"

"Father!" Mao Lilan also complained.

"Ah... yes, yes, sorry." Mori Kogoro apologized unwillingly, and said, "You mean that little Ji Xing Qixin... what kind of game does the little president want me to cooperate with? I'm a detective, detective , what is the good cooperation with you?"

Cut, even if we can cooperate, I will not cooperate with that nasty brat!

"That's right, Mr. Maori Detective, we need you to provide the details of the cases you have solved to use as the background of the board game. We are very sincere, and depending on the complexity of the case, we will pay you 50 per case." The remuneration from 10,000 yen to 1 million yen, if you are interested, I will come to visit tomorrow to discuss the details."

Hehe, what a mess.

Mori Kogoro sneered in his heart, with a bright smile on his face: "Yes, yes, I am interested, then I will be waiting for you at the office tomorrow!"

After a few more polite words, Mori Kogoro hung up the phone, his face suddenly collapsed.

"Damn it! Brat, you're really rich!"

"Father!" Mao Lilan was helpless.

Conan rolled his eyes, blocking the light in his eyes behind his glasses.

Ji Xingqixin...is she back?

Since discovering Ji Xing's problem last time, Conan wanted to contact Ji Xing several times to confirm whether Ji Xing's identity was as he guessed.

But this person seems to have disappeared recently, and he doesn't know where he went.

Let the club run away, the doubts are even bigger.

Now... I have to find a chance to confirm it!

At this time, Conan did not expect that the opportunity he wanted would be delivered by himself a few days later.

...

Five days later, Monday.

Conan walked into the first grade Class B classroom bored with a bag on his back, and found that the classroom today was extremely lively and chaotic.

"Conan! You're finally here!" The cute little girl Ayumi Yoshida was still the first person to notice Conan's arrival, she jumped over and said, "Today, another transfer student is coming to our class!"

"Really?" Conan was surprised.

"Yeah, there are a lot of transfer students recently, but I don't know if it will be a boy like you, Conan, or a girl like Haibara-san." Ayumi Yoshida looked expectant.

"It must be a cute girl like Haibara-san." Mitsuhiko leaned over and secretly glanced at the cute brown-haired girl while talking.

"Boys aren't bad either." Yuan Tai stepped forward and said, "Maybe our young detective team can have another useful boy like Conan."

Hehe... Conan rolled his eyes, walked back to his seat, and whispered to Haibara Ai at the same table: "Now when I hear about the transfer students, the first thing I think of is whether there will be another one who is in the same situation as the two of us." guy?"

Hui Yuanai pursed his lips and smiled: "Did I scare you out of the shadows last time? Great detective."

"Hehe...hehe..."

Conan laughed dryly, recalling the scene where the genius scientist of the black organization next to him coldly read out the drug APTX4869 that made him smaller, and said that Dr. Ali was killed by her.

It almost scared him to death that time.

This naughty woman.

The first-year students of the two children, who are physically and mentally, don't care about the situation of the transfer students at all, but the other children are talking about the class with great interest.

It was discussed that Mr. Xiaolin, the head teacher, brought the new classmate into the classroom.

There was a brief dead silence in the classroom.

Mitsuhiko's sigh sounded: "What, another Yuantai is here?"

"It seems..." The other students echoed.

Yuan Tai shook his fist angrily: "Hey, you..."

"Students, be quiet." Teacher Xiao Lin spoke to maintain order: "Let us welcome new students."

She writes on the blackboard.

"Ji Xinghao too!"

Ji Xing? Many children were stunned, feeling familiar, Conan and Hui Yuanai's expression changed slightly... Is it that Ji Xing?

"That's right, Ji Xinghaotai's older brother is the talented high school student Ji Xing Qixin who founded the Board Game Co., Ltd. You often play the games designed by him, and the teacher's drawer is full."

"It's all mine, teacher..." Guangyan muttered, and soon became excited. He is really Ji Xingqixin's younger brother. Does he know the advanced gameplay and skills of many games?

There are also collectible cards, special cards...

"Student Haotai, sit here with me!"

The students who were disgusted with the arrival of another Yuan Tai just now were all enthusiastic. The children didn't have any utilitarianism, but simply thought that 'his brother is great, so he must be great, and I want to be friends with him! '

Little Fatty was used to this, and was not too happy, so he found a seat at random and sat down.

After the first class, when the get out of class was over, the children gathered around Ji Xinghaotai in an instant.

"Hey, student Haotai, isn't your family rich?"

"Yuantai can eat four bowls of rice in one meal, can you do it too?"

"You must have collected all the collection cards of "I Am a Detective", right? Have you brought them?"

After all, he is a child, Ji Xinghao too quickly lost in the handsome praise of his new classmates, proudly raised his head: "What is there to collect for that detective collection card, I have as many as I want, it's boring. Let you see this ..."

He took out a stack of cards from his bag and lined them up on the table, and the surroundings were instantly silent.

"This, is this..."

"Kamen Rider...Gold Card?"

"Ultra rare...full set?!"

"Wow!!"

The children exploded, and many of them were so envious that their eyes were red: "Student Haotai is so amazing!"

Yuan Tai, the head of the young detective team, said anxiously: "Student Haotai, you have met the conditions to join our young detective team, join us!"

"...Young detective team?" Hao Tai was taken aback.

"It's amazing."

"We solved a lot of cases!"

"Although it wasn't reported in the newspapers, many cases solved by the sleeping detective Mori Kogoro are thanks to our help!"

Yuan Tai and the others blew one after another.

Conan watched from the outside.

'This Ji Xingqixin's younger brother seems to be completely fine...that's right, if Ji Xingqixin was a member of that organization, it would be impossible for the young brother to know and see the problem...'

But to his surprise, Ji Xinghaota, who said he was considering whether to join the Boy Detective Team, found them quietly before school was over.

"You... have really solved many cases, are you famous detectives?"

"Of course!" Yuan Tai pushed Conan out: "This is my number one brother, Conan, his reasoning is only half as good as mine, and it is enough to reason out most cases!"

Conan was speechless, and Haibara smiled secretly.

But Haotai hesitated for a few seconds, lowered his voice and said, "Will you accept my commission?"

Yuan Tai's eyes brightened. The Boy Detective Group hasn't opened for a long time, and... the client should be super rich: "What commission?"

"Fight monsters!" Haotai gritted his teeth.

"……What?"

"Fight monsters!" Ji Xinghao repeated.

"I'll tell you a secret. You must not tell it. My brother Jixing Urushiko seems to have been possessed by a man-eating monster two years ago. I collect Kamen Rider cards because I want to use the power of Kamen Rider , Defeat the monster!"

The children were stunned for a moment.

Such a big commission...

Is that what we can do?

But... so excited!

"Could it be...he is Gomera?!"

"It may also be a Baltan star!"

"No wonder it's so powerful!"

"Leave it to us!" Yuan Tai patted her chest and agreed, without even asking about the reward.

Conan and Haibara looked at each other silently.

Do you really believe it? These brats.

But...'Children's senses are very keen, and they get along day and night, and they really find that some changes are reasonable. According to him, Ji Xingqixin's personality and behavior should have changed significantly two years ago. Adults would only regard it as growth, but naive children would regard it as...

Therefore, there is only one truth!

Ji Xing Qixin started...joining that organization two years ago! '

Behind Conan's lens, the light flashed!
