Chapter 2394 2406 [Public Enemy] Ask for monthly ticket (づど)
Hattori Heiji resisted the urge to scratch his head and cursed, "It's your Suzuki Sonoko who keeps saying that she adapted a script that's as good as a suspense novel, and that I won't be able to figure out the mystery behind it... How can I stand this! I changed my flight ticket right then and there, planning to sneak into your audience seats, crack the script on the way, and then give you a hearty spoiler..."
As he was speaking, Hattori Heiji noticed the suspicious eyes around him and suddenly realized that he had gone off topic.
He cleared his throat and said seriously, “Anyway, I sneaked into your venue, but before I could start reasoning about the dialogue, things were interrupted by a sudden murder.
"I was just about to come over to check out the situation, but there were too many people to squeeze through. Before I could find the way, Kudo suddenly called me - he asked me to dress up as him and appear in public, especially in front of Mao Lilan. And he put special emphasis on making me look like him but not like him... In short, let others think I am Kudo Shinichi, but a closer look will tell that I am not."
As he was talking, Hattori Heiji suddenly remembered something unusual and touched his chin in confusion: "I always feel that his voice sounds a bit strange, not like a child, but more like a high school student's voice. Could it be that he has been..."
Halfway through his words, Hattori Heiji suddenly remembered that he should not talk about the Black Organization casually. According to Conan, in Jiang Xia's impression, Kudo Shinichi unfortunately became smaller because of Dr. Agasa's black technology medicine.
"..." Hattori Heiji almost changed the subject, "Could it be that he got the antidote from the doctor and turned back into an adult? But why did he want me to dress up as him? It's really weird."
Although the Osaka detective described the situation in a mess, Jiang Xia still understood it based on what the ghosts saw: "..." Combined with the breathtaking scene on the stage just now, Kudo Shinichi wanted to seek help from outside, and confuse the truth in this way, so that Mao Li Ran would think that the "Kudo Shinichi" who was hugging teacher Judy affectionately on the stage was pretended to be Hattori Heiji?
While thinking about it, he did not forget to ask the question at the right time: "If you feel it is strange, why did you agree directly?"
Hattori Heiji had a strange expression: "You didn't hear it. When that guy called, his tone was low and urgent, and there was a hint of despair, as if he was being hunted... Although he said he was fine no matter how I asked, I always felt that if I didn't agree to him, something bad might happen..."
As he was talking, Hattori Heiji's heart suddenly skipped a beat: Wait, could it be that Kudo accidentally grew bigger for some reason, was unfortunately discovered by members of the organization, and is now staging a desperate escape in some unknown place?
"But in that case, isn't his request a bit strange?" Detective Osaka felt vaguely that there was something wrong with it, and couldn't help but fall into deep thought. He muttered to himself:
"They asked me to dress up as him, and to look like him, but not quite like him. This is easy to understand. They wanted to make the members of the organization who saw Kudo Shinichi think they had recognized the wrong person.
"But why do you insist on having me show up in front of Mouri Ran? Uh... could it be that because Kudo escaped the pursuit and hid himself, the people in the organization can't find him now, so they have to turn their attention to Mouri Ran. In this case, I can only appear around Mouri Ran to make the members of the organization notice me, a fake?"
In just a few seconds, Detective Osaka sorted out the entire logic and nodded in sudden enlightenment.
One must help a good brother when he is in trouble. At this time, Mao Lilan, who happened to be walking around the venue, looking for something, came over.
Upon seeing this, Hattori Heiji rushed over. He showed the same hearty smile as Kudo Shinichi and laughed, "Surprised? Unexpected? - I said before that I was very busy, but when I thought about this school festival drama that you guys prepared so carefully, I still found time to come back!"
When Mao Lilan heard the voice, she looked over here in confusion. Her eyes swept over Hattori Heiji and saw that somewhat familiar face. Her eyes jumped and she clenched her fists silently.
Hattori Heiji suddenly felt a chill, and he shuddered: Here it comes! It seems that everything is going according to plan. The evil forces that are secretly observing Mao Lilan are now targeting him, "Kudo Shinichi"!
"The police have already cleared the area, and there aren't many people left in the stadium." Hattori Heiji immediately realized that this was an opportunity. "As long as I take note of the suspicious people present, I might be able to help Kudo identify a member of an organization lurking among the citizens!"
Thinking of this, he turned around and scanned most of the venue.
Then he couldn't help but hit Akai Shuichi.
Hattori Heiji: "..." This man gives people a very dangerous feeling, and the deceased's action of grabbing his trouser legs just now is indeed too coincidental... Could it be him?
There were too many familiar people around, and Hattori Heiji was worried that the guy who was suspected to be a member of the organization would pull out a bomb and die with everyone if he was forced into a corner, so he didn't dare to look any longer.
He glanced around and landed his eyes on Mouri Ran again, and walked towards the innocent female high school student who was being targeted by the organization members.
Mao Lilan slowly raised her hand.
But at this moment, she took a closer look and gradually felt that something was wrong: "You..."
"What are you doing?"
At this moment, a voice came from the side, and Yuanshan Heye suddenly stuck his head out.
The high school girl who had just been sent out to buy drinks approached Hattori Heiji and raised her hand to touch him curiously.
With a "swish", a black mark suddenly appeared on the fair face of "Kudo Shinichi".
"Isn't this my foundation? When did you take it away? How much did you apply? This is a limited edition color!"
Yuanshan Heye took out a handkerchief and wiped off the powder on her fingertips. She looked at her childhood friend in anger and said, "You even got a new hairstyle... You bastard, we are here to support Sonoko's play, not to dress up and pick up girls!"
Hattori Heiji was shocked. He didn't expect her to interfere. He instinctively said stubbornly, "Don't talk nonsense! Take a closer look at who I am!"
Yuan Shan He Ye's forehead was bulging with a vein, and he put a handkerchief on his face: "Do I need to look closely? You can't find many people with your skin color in all of Tokyo!"
When Yuanshan Heye was trying to recover this strange childhood friend.
Inspector Megure finally understood the current situation.
"Some detectives are helping us solve the case, while some are making trouble." He muttered a few words and couldn't help but condemn Hattori Heiji, "What kind of play are you putting on? Today is not April Fool's Day."
