Early this morning, Kōyū was woken up by an excited female voice in the office. He rubbed his still sleepy eyes and yawned: "Damn it, which idiot woke me up? I was just dreaming about holding Ai's hand."
Guangyou doesn't have the habit of taking a nap after waking up. Once he wakes up, he can't fall back asleep at all. He complains as he slowly washes up, with a hint of resentment in his eyes.
After washing up, as soon as I arrived at the office, I heard a girl excitedly shout, "My name is Hirota Masami. Please, please help me find my father!"
Hearing this, Kōyū's weariness vanished, and a glimmer of light appeared in his eyes: "I'm still thinking about how to make some money. After all, my body limits my strength. I can use a trick to fight petty thugs in close combat, but fighting someone like Gin is still a tough challenge. Hehe, it's like money falling from the sky while I'm sitting at home~~~"
Regarding Masami Hirota, she appeared twice in the anime, but only once in the manga. Originally, some plot points about the Black Organization were modified due to the "childish" design.
However, this explanation doesn't hold water. In the manga, Masami's identity is exposed by Gin and Vodka, and she is then assassinated.
His first appearance in the anime was during an arrest; he was killed later.
The animation team added the character later, Masami, before Ai appeared. She should be called Miyano Akemi, but this still left a bug.
So later, Uncle 73 created Heiji Hattori and delayed Ai's appearance. Although there are many flaws, you can ignore this bug.
Kōyū opened the door, greeted Uncle Mori and Conan, and then continued listening to Hirota Masami tell her story: "My father, who came to work in Tokyo, has been missing for a month. I heard he even quit his taxi job. I took leave from school this time and came all the way from Yamagata Prefecture to look for him. Now, only Mr. Chūtan can help me find him!"
Hirota Masami's excited expression made Kōyū sigh: "That's why they say women are born actresses. If I hadn't known it was fake, I might have actually fallen for it."
Masami Hirota took out a photo of what she claimed to be her father from a small bag beside her, saying his name was Kenzo Hirota.
In the photo, Kenzo Hirota is holding a black cat. According to Masami Hirota, the cat is named Kai. Her father also kept three other cats named Tei, Go, and Wang.
Conan thought nonchalantly: "For something like finding someone, I don't need to get involved."
Conan removed the miniature tracker he had just gotten from Professor Agasa from his button. Seeing Ran carrying tea over, he had an idea: Okay, let's stick it on Ran and test its performance first.
To be honest, Conan was standing right behind Ran, and from Kouyu's perspective, it looked like Conan wanted to slap Ran's butt.
Kōyū, also feeling playful, walked over to Conan and stretched out his leg.
Conan, whose attention was completely elsewhere, was accidentally tripped by Mitsuyu, stumbled, and fell next to Hirota Masami.
Conan apologized sheepishly. When he turned around, he noticed that the transmitter in his hand was gone. Looking to the side, he found that the transmitter had been stuck to Hirota Masami's watch.
Seeing Hirota Masami crying so sadly, Conan felt embarrassed to take the transmitter down.
After a week of searching, Uncle Mori only had a few clues left, and he was very distressed, holding his head in his hands.
"This is the Emperor's 15th consecutive victory!"
After hearing this, Conan silently recited the names in his mind. Suddenly, he remembered what Hirota Masami had said about the names of the four cats his father kept. He hurriedly jumped onto the table and wrote down some of his thoughts on a piece of paper.
After writing it, Conan also felt it was unlikely, because it was too much of a coincidence.
Ran saw Conan writing something on a piece of paper. Curious, she walked to the table, looked at the paper, clapped her hands, and without thinking, exclaimed, "That's right, it must be like that! Mr. Hirota must really like horse racing, which is why he named his cat after a horse!"
Ran quickly told Uncle Mori her idea. Although Conan and Uncle Mori didn't really believe that such a coincidence could happen, the group still went to the racetrack at Ran's insistence.
Kōyū tugged at Ran's hand and said, "Ran-neechan, is that the Hirota Kenzō that Yami-neechan mentioned?"
Ran looked in the direction Guangyou pointed and exclaimed, "Hey, it really is! We found it!"
Turning back to the petrified Conan and Uncle Mori, he boasted, "I'm a famous detective now!"
Uncle Mori and Conan were also internally screaming with frustration.
To avoid alerting the enemy, Uncle Mori stopped Ran from calling Kenzo Hirota and instead summoned Masami Hirota to his residence.
Seeing the scene of the "father and daughter" reunited, Xiaolan was also happy for Hirota Masami.
On their way home, the group noticed a man wearing a brown trench coat and dark sunglasses watching them from behind a utility pole not far from Kenzo Hirota's apartment.
However, after realizing that the group had spotted him, the man hurriedly slipped away, and the group didn't take it seriously.
The next day, when they learned that Kenzo Hirota had hanged himself, Uncle Mori and his group were also very shocked.
After Uncle Mori asked about his daughter, and listened to the landlady's recollections of Kenzo Hirota, everyone suspected that Masami Hirota had also been murdered, because the detective said that Kenzo Hirota had been killed.
Ran was heartbroken that Masami Hirota might have been murdered. She sat on the steps in front of the Metropolitan Police Department with her head down, tears streaming down her face.
