After returning home, Jiang Lai happily talked with Morobushi Keimitsu about what happened in Sakura Valley, and told the story of his interactions with Hagiwara Kenji and Amuro Toru.

Morofushi Jingguang had his usual gentle smile on his face and listened quietly to the stories about his friends getting along.

"Fouya is now working in the cafe under the Maori Detective Agency. I made an appointment to make rice balls for him, and he said sandwiches in return." Jiang Lai said with a smile, "I found a fixed haunt, and I also found his contact information. I can go to see him some other day."

"Sure, Zero's craftsmanship is pretty good."

"My cooking skills are pretty good too!" Jiang Lai joked, "He's your senior apprentice, and I'm your junior apprentice. Next time I make rice balls for him, you can stand by and give him instructions throughout the process. I guarantee he'll make them your way!"

"Hahaha," Zhu Fu Jingguang raised his eyes with a smile, "Okay, Jiang Lai."

Jiang Lai then continued to recount his experiences. When he heard about Samuster, Zhu Fu Jingguang frowned and warned, "Be careful of him, Jiang Lai."

Jiang Lai nodded and gestured: "Yes, I know, I have been on guard."

After all, the other party is a pervert, he probably won't give up easily, it seems that he is very obsessed with his eyes, Jiang Lai thought.

But Jiang Lai still had the same attitude as before. If he wanted to interfere with his daily life, he would punish him with the socialist iron fist! Jiang Lai clenched his fist. He couldn't be timid when dealing with perverts, he had to hit them hard!

As he was thinking this, Jiang Lai heard a gentle voice from the side: "So, do you feel better now?"

"What?" Jiang Lai was slightly stunned.

"How are you feeling? Didn't you say that you had a cold and a low fever during those days in Sakura Valley? How are you recovering now?" Zhufu Jingguang still remembered this sentence that Jiang Lai mentioned by chance just now, and asked with concern.

"Ah, I'm fine now, thank you for your concern." Jiang Lai replied with a smile.

"So, you have to take medicine." Zhu Fu Jingguang's translucent hands made a gesture of rubbing Jiang Lai's hair, "Take good care of yourself when you are out there."

"Got it, Jing-Guang-Mom..." Jiang Lai made a face and joked, "I and Xiao Zhao are both big and small at home and you have to worry about us~"

"..." Zhufu Jingguang kept smiling, then raised his hand and flicked Jiang Lai's head unexpectedly.

"Hmm!" Jiang Lai covered his forehead subconsciously, and then looked shocked, "You just materialized again? Your mark..."

"I feel much better now." Zhu Fu Jingguang raised his lips, "I have tried it. This short-term materialization of a small part will not have a big impact on the clarity of the hourglass mark."

"Really?" Jiang Lai showed a look of surprise. He stepped forward and said, "Let me see the palm of your hand."

Zhu Fu Jingguang spread his hands, Jiang Lai looked down and found that the white hourglass mark was much clearer than before.

"Wow, it's deepened again! That's great, hard work pays off!" Jiang Lai was in a very happy mood, he said with emotion.

It seems that this trip to Sakura Valley has made a good impression in front of Amuro Toru, which has pushed Morobushi Kagemitsu's resurrection line forward a little.

Zhu Fu Jingguang looked down at the hourglass mark that had become clearer in his palm, and with a slight curl of his lips, he said softly, "Thank you for your hard work, Jiang Lai."

——He knew that Jiang Lai must have done a lot to advance his chances of resurrection.

In those places he couldn't see, there were traces of Jiang Lai's efforts. Zhu Fu Jingguang's blue-gray cat eyes were filled with warmth.

"It's okay~ It's not too hard. We're just all acting as riddle tellers together." Jiang Lai smiled and spoke half jokingly and half truthfully.

Just maintain a mysterious appearance, reveal a little information, and let the other person figure out the rest.

At this time, Jiang Lai was grateful that the other party was a highly intelligent person, because he could completely rely on his own wisdom to complete the process in between (?)

Although this is all, it is not enough, Jiang Lai thought. He must continue to improve his impression points and advance the process.

But now we can see great hope! Jiang Lai encouraged himself. There is no difficult work, only hard-working cats! !

Kurosawa Akira finished his homework and walked out of his room. It just so happened that Jiang Lai and Morobushi Kagemitsu had also finished their conversation about the same topic.

"How have you been these days, Xiao Zhao?" Jiang Lai waved his hand, asked Kurosawa Zhao to come to his side, sit on the sofa and chat, and handed him an apple.

"It's no problem. Brother Jiang Lai, I'm already a big boy. Of course I can take care of myself. Besides, I have Brother Jingguang as well." Kurosawa Akira replied with his head tilted.

"Haha, that's good. Xiao Zhao is already a big kid who doesn't need me to worry about him anymore." Jiang Lai rubbed Kurosawa Zhao's head and said.

In life, children always say they have grown up, while adults always say they still have a childlike heart. Jiang Lai took a bite of the apple and thought with a smile.

"So, is there anything going on in school recently?" Jiang Lai asked, still a little confused.

Kurosawa Akira and Conan are in the same class, so why does Kurosawa Akira have to attend classes all the time while Conan has the vacation to go to Sakura Valley...?

It's strange! Can the magical scientific time now be divided into individuals?

Speaking of which, Conan seems to have a lot of vacation time. He can travel around Japan.

"You were only away for three days, nothing happened." Kurosawa Akira blinked his green eyes and paused, "Oh, right!" The silver-haired boy seemed to remember something and tapped his right palm with his left hand, "Tomorrow night... um, can we go to the Rice Flower Theater?"

"Huh?"

"Well, because there's a Kamen Rider show!" The silver-haired boy looked up, blushing slightly, "I want to go watch it with Mitsuhiko and the others, and invite Natsume and Kuroko to come along."

"Tomorrow is Friday." Jiang Lai thought for a moment, "No problem, I'll take you there when I get off work and you finish school, and also take your two friends with me."

“Yeah!”

Jiang Lai had never been to this place, so he decided to search it online. However, the first news that popped up was not about Kamen Rider tomorrow night, but about Phantom Thief Kid.

...Huh?

Jiang Lai looked carefully and found that next to the Rice Flower Theater, there was another high-rise building called the Golden Rice Building - of course, it was also owned by Suzuki.

Jiang Lai: Suzuki, yyds.

This time, Suzuki Jirokichi was exhibiting the newly acquired gem of "Umi no Eye" in this golden rice building, and as expected, he received a notice letter from Kidd in advance.

Despite receiving the warning letter, Suzuki Jirokichi still insisted on the original plan. This Golden Rice Building is completely open to the public. No admission ticket is required. Anyone can enter and watch "Umi no Eye".

Suzuki Jirokichi said: "No need to guard the entrance! Just let the visitors in. The security inside is very complete and that guy will never come back! Hahahaha!"

Jiang Lai's half-moon eyes.

I guess we're going to start a series of episodes of "We must catch Kidd this time" and "It's a shame that he let this guy run away again"...

Since Kidd is going to the Kimmi Building to steal gems, it is estimated that Conan will not go to see Kamen Rider with the children tomorrow night, but will go to the Kimmi Building with Xiaolan, Suzuki Sonoko.

Jiang Lai touched his chin.

This time I've got hold of Conan's whereabouts in advance, so there's a high chance I won't run into him.

This thought was confirmed when I saw the staff at the entrance of the Grand Theater the next evening.

Professor Agasa, three members of the Junior Detective Team, and Ai were present, but Conan was not there.

He must have gone to participate in the plot with Kidd in the building next door. =w=

Jiang Lai was thinking this as he saw Kurosawa Akira pulling little Natsume and little Kuroko over to reunite with the children.

Conan probably told Haibara Ai about himself. In any case, when Haibara Ai noticed him, she quietly leaned towards Dr. Agasa without revealing herself too much.

Jiang Lai didn't want to scare Xiao Ai, so he also looked away to avoid giving the other party a sense of oppression.

I scanned the crowd and accidentally caught a glimpse of a familiar figure!

——A man with slightly curly black hair, wearing sunglasses and a mask, and a dark blue casual suit, with one hand in his pocket, exuding a lazy and casual temperament, is walking leisurely to the other side.

It's Jinpei Matsuda!

Jiang Lai blinked and looked at the soul body Morobushi Kagemitsu, then he turned to Kurosawa Akira and told them to follow the doctor in first, and he would go find them later.

He stepped into the crowd, looking for Jinpei Matsuda among them.

Why is he here? But he doesn't look like he's on a mission. He looks so relaxed, maybe it's just his daily routine?

It's a good opportunity to meet him and chat with him.

Jiang Lai thought so.

As a contact person for Matsuda Jinpei, Jiang Lai collected intelligence sent to him by the other party, and then secretly transmitted it to the Metropolitan Police Department in the name of HLJ - there was a traitor in the Metropolitan Police Department, but the traitor would never be able to find him.

Although they had chatted on the phone before, Matsuda Jinpei was not very fast at reading messages, and Jiang Lai understood. After all, when he was on a mission outside, the time he checked his phone was naturally irregular.

Besides, online chatting is not as convenient as offline chatting.

Jiang Lai's sharp eyes scanned the crowd and locked onto the curly-haired figure not far ahead. Just as she was about to run after him, Zhu Fu Jingguang, who was floating on the side, reminded her, "Wait, there's another person diagonally to the right in front of you."

Jiang Lai looked over——

The man was wearing a floppy hat and had his hands in his bulging pockets. His posture and clothing were not noticeable at all, and his tracking skills were very high, just like the passers-by around him. Matsuda Jinpei didn't seem to notice him.

Only Morofushi Kagemitsu and Jiang Lai, who were standing behind them with their minds focused, were able to observe that this guy was following Matsuda Jinpei.

"..." Jiang Lai narrowed his eyes, slowed down his pace, and followed behind the man.

So now, Matsuda Jinpei is walking in front, the man in the hat is following behind, and at the end there is Jiang Lai and the soul body Morofushi Kagemitsu.

This time, the mantis stalks the cicada, while the oriole waits behind. Jiang Lai thought with a half-moon eye in his heart. He looked at the direction where Matsuda Jinpei was heading, and a road had already been outlined in his mind after looking at the surrounding route map in advance -

Wait...Matsuda isn't going to this golden rice building, is he?

Jiang Lai paused slightly.

Then, isn't Jinpei Matsuda also on a mission right now? Is the organization also asking for gems now?

But no matter what... Jiang Lai stared at the man in the hat. This guy was following Matsuda, so he had to keep an eye on him.
