Chapter 186

Oh no! The bug has been discovered!

Conan's pupils instantly dilated, and in a panic he rammed his head backwards, hitting the old butler's chest. Conan felt a sharp pain on the back of his head, and then he heard the old butler scream "Ah", and then he let go, dropping Conan to the ground, and then he covered his chest with his hands with an ugly face and bent slightly.

Conan's heart skipped a beat. Oh no! Could it be that he had hit the old man too hard and given him a heart attack? Conan didn't care about running away and hurried over to check. However, he saw the old butler standing up again as if nothing had happened. It seemed that he hadn't been hit at all. He just said with a stern face:

"Since you brought a child with you, you must keep an eye on the whole process. If the child messes up the layout of the venue, can you bear the responsibility?"

Conan looked at the old butler in bewilderment. He had never expected that the butler would have such an attitude. Is this really what a butler of a big family would say to a guest? Come to think of it, is his chest really okay? The pain just now didn't seem fake, did it?

However, as soon as the old butler finished his lecture, Conan was picked up from behind again.

"We're really sorry! We will definitely keep an eye on this child and won't let him run around again." Ran Mouri's voice rang from behind Conan.

Conan's eyes widened in horror. This is bad! I was caught by Xiaolan! How can I chase Xingchuan and Ming?

For a period of time afterwards, no matter how shamelessly Conan flirted with Ran Mouri or tried to sneak away when Ran wasn't paying attention, he couldn't get rid of Ran Mouri's clutches, and Conan was sweating profusely. However, before Conan could think of a solution, something unexpected happened in the banquet hall. The power supply line was suddenly cut off, and the entire banquet hall fell into darkness and panic. Conan had to take care of the situation here first, and he didn't even have time to care about the eavesdropping being discovered.

Then, because of the sudden darkness, the banquet hall was in chaos. It was not until about five minutes later that the emergency light was finally turned on. After regaining vision, everyone immediately realized that a murder had occurred in the banquet hall. Conan immediately suggested that Mao Lilan help maintain order at the scene, and finally freed from her custody. Conan breathed a sigh of relief, and just when he was thinking about how to secretly check the body, he unexpectedly found that Xingchuan and Ming had just returned.

Conan hesitated for a moment. His curiosity about the case was not as important as his friend's safety. Although Conan himself didn't know whether the two of them, who always wanted to trick each other, could be considered friends.

So he trotted to Xingchuan and Ming, and with the dim light of the emergency light, his eyes quickly scanned him. After confirming that the guy was indeed not injured, Conan breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that at least so far, the two members of the organization had not had time to do anything to Xingchuan. Then Conan asked innocently:

"Brother Xingchuan? Where did you go just now? Why did you come back from outside?"

After entering the door, Xingchuan and Ming wanted to go directly to the central crowd gathering area, but when they saw Conan suddenly running over, they stopped and said in surprise:

"You didn't go to the crime scene right away? That shouldn't be the case... Are you searching for evidence?"

Conan was immediately furious, his eyes widened, and he could not help but shout angrily at Xingchuan and Ming:

"Idiot! I came here because I was worried that something might happen to you. Do you think I don't want to go to the scene right away?"

Hoshikawa and Akira were stunned, and they felt a little bit unbelievable. Is this really the little detective in their memory who would not care about anything when encountering a case and only knew to rush forward? I didn't expect that he would ignore the case happening in front of him for his own safety. As the beneficiaries of Conan's active concern, Hoshikawa and Akira were surprised, but also felt a little touched.

He looked away with a guilty conscience and said nonchalantly:

"Well, what could possibly happen to me? I just went out for some fresh air... huh?"

Xingchuan and Ming paused for a moment, then they remembered the bug that was taken away by Morobushi Kagemitsu. His previous emotion was suddenly stuck, and he turned around and looked at Conan with a strange expression.

So, didn't this little detective hear everything about what happened when I went to the rooftop to meet Momofushi Jingguang and Baifu just now?

Xingchuan and Ming were speechless. How could this little detective always cause so much trouble? And he always happened to uncover other people's biggest secrets. He used to cause trouble for the winery, but now he is causing trouble for himself?

Fortunately, Baifu discovered the existence of the eavesdropping device at the first time, and it was destroyed and taken away by Morobushi Kagemitsu. So, Conan didn't hear anything important, right?

These are two reliable bottles of fake wine. They are indeed professionals!

Because they had just experienced a dungeon mission before discovering the eavesdropping device, and so many days had passed, Xingchuan and Ming had long forgotten what kind of conversation they had with Morobushi Kagemitsu before entering the dungeon.

He even pretended to be vicious and said with a smile:

"Ha! Oh, and there's the eavesdropping device. That's yours, right? How dare you eavesdrop? Since you discovered the secret I took so much trouble to hide so quickly, I have no choice but to get rid of you, the eavesdropper, first!"

Conan was startled at first out of reflex, then he reacted immediately, staring speechlessly at Xingchuan and Ming as they stretched out their hands and deliberately made a devilish gesture, then put their palms on his head and rubbed it hard.

"Hey! Stop rubbing my hair!" Conan angrily slapped away Xingchuan Heming's hand that was deliberately messing with him, grinned and glared at him, and said unhappily: "Xingchuan brother, don't scare people randomly, it's too much!"

"Can you place things like eavesdropping devices randomly? If I don't scare you a little to teach you a lesson, what if you happen to run into a bad guy when you put eavesdropping devices on others in the future, or even hear something you shouldn't hear, wouldn't that bring danger to yourself and Mr. Maori?" Hoshikawa and Mingli retorted righteously.

Conan choked and couldn't help but feel guilty. He knew his own affairs. Last time he accidentally overheard the phone call between Mizunashi Renna, also known as the organization's Gil, and Gin, Gin misunderstood that it was Uncle Mori who was secretly investigating the organization, which resulted in Gin personally coming to his house to silence him. Later, it was thanks to Mr. Akai who arrived in time and took the blame that Uncle Mori's life was saved.

However, he couldn't admit this at this time, as it would make him look inferior. Conan tried to keep a straight face and make himself look more justified.

"But Brother Xingchuan is in a more dangerous situation now, right? You were almost assassinated a few days ago, and now you are running around in an unfamiliar place. What if you run into bad guys again? I am helping Uncle Maori and am responsible for supervising you not to do dangerous things. Hey, Brother Xingchuan, who was the person you just met? Was he someone you know?"

Conan insisted on getting an answer, his voice gradually became serious and low, and he stared at Xingchuan and Ming with a sharp look that didn't look like a first-grade elementary school student at all. Xingchuan and Ming almost saw the shadow of the sharp high school detective Kudo Shinichi in him.

Is the young detective going to stop pretending? He is actually testing the members of the organization. Has he already decided that he will stand on his side, or has he simply been provoked by the members of the organization to the point that he has forgotten to hide his true feelings?

If it were normal times, Xingchuan and Ming would definitely scare him once to prevent him from being so reckless and getting into danger again. But today, Xingchuan and Ming also wanted to use Conan to promote the unity of the Red Team, so they did not refuse immediately.

He was thinking about what he could reveal at this stage, but was suddenly interrupted by the anxiety and shock in his consciousness. Xingchuan Heming suddenly looked dignified, and then a trace of helplessness appeared in his eyes.

As expected, they started arguing. I should have thought of this earlier. None of my aliases are worry-free.

Conan had been paying attention to his reaction. Seeing his expression suddenly change, he couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong, Brother Xingchuan? Did something happen?"

"Ah, nothing. I just didn't expect something to happen here. It's just a bit unexpected." Xingchuan Heming said casually, while looking around, and suddenly noticed that the previous chaos had subsided.

The crowd that had originally gathered in the middle of the banquet hall had been calmed down. Perhaps because they knew the police would be here soon, and because the danger was over, these people who claimed to be high-ranking officials had regained their usual elegance, as if the people who had just been so ugly in the panic were not themselves at all.

Because of this, the crime scene that was previously blocked by the crowd finally appeared. On the stage specially prepared for the organizer, a middle-aged man in a suit was lying on the ground motionless. His body was curled up, his face was dark, and a little blood flowed from his purple lips.

With Conan and the Mori family all present, and the sudden large-scale power outage before, Xingchuan Heming was not surprised that a murder would happen here. However, what he didn't expect was that the victim this time was none other than his own father, Kamimura Sachiro.
