Chapter 424 Shopping Events

Sunday, May 4, noon, Maori Detective Agency.

After Yamazaki came over and conveyed Fei Yingli's words, Mori slapped the table and shouted: "Asshole, no one has appeared at the scene after the accident, what qualifications do you have to say such things, and dare to say that I am not optimistic about my daughter."

"Cough," Yamazaki said with a smile, "Uncle, it's your permission for Lan to appear there."

"What did I allow, I didn't allow it, she insisted on running." Maori shouted, "It's all the fault of Kudo Shinichi, Yoran went to a midnight movie, don't let me see He, or he must have smashed his head."

This is my date? Conan raised his triangular eyes.

Yamazaki looked at the bandage on Conan's head and smiled in his heart, his head had been broken. ...

May 5, Monday, morning, Mihua Park.

No matter what happened in the past, as long as everyone is not involved, most ordinary people will continue to act according to their own trajectory today.

Today is Children's Day, and the shopkeepers of Mihua Town Commercial Street jointly organized a children's shopping event, inviting many children under the age of six in the town to participate. Although some people withdrew due to yesterday's incident, many people still came to participate, but the mayor who was supposed to attend did not come.

Lan and Mao Li were sitting on the judging table. Lan noticed that Mao Li was yawning profusely, and couldn't help complaining in a low voice: "You drank a dozen and a half beers while I was away. You really don't know how to control yourself." No, an elbow hit Maori on the ribs, "Dad, you look good, the bosses of the shopping street are the most important customers."

"Hiss!" Mao Li woke up from the pain, corrected his sitting posture, and muttered in a low voice, "I knew I was on duty at home with Yamazaki, and I didn't even have a bottle of beer."

In the arena, Conan looked at a group of "peers" around him and sighed heavily. How did I remember to agree to participate in the event?

Seeing Genta and Mitsuhiko each holding up a portable camera to take pictures of these children, and Ayumi holding a pink microphone, Conan couldn't help asking: "What is our commission?"

Ayumi said: "The job of our Boys Detective Team is to make records for this competition, follow these children, and then take pictures of their every move."

"That's it?" Conan felt more and more that the choice was wrong.

"It's very important. The ones we shoot will be broadcast on cable TV, and people will decide the ranking of each child, and then give them prizes." Mitsuhiko said.

"Our work is much more important than those judges dozing off in their seats." Yuan Tai said.

Conan followed Yuanta's gaze and found that it was Maori. He thought that it would be strange if he drank a lot of beer while Lan was away yesterday. He then asked, "Speaking of which, why must we accept this? kind of commission?"

"Do you still need to ask this kind of question?" Ayumi said, "Our goal is to become a detective team that citizens love."

Mitsuhiko said: "This is something we have finally won."

"What?" Conan was taken aback, "Didn't someone ask us, but you fought for it yourself?"

Yuan Tai shouted: "What dissatisfaction do you have, Conan!"

"No, no." Conan said, he had never heard of such a detective team at all, and it was really hopeless.

At this time,

The shopping activity officially started, and Ayumi said into the microphone: "I am Ayumi from the Boy Detectives, and now the first group has set off from Mihua Park."

"Let's go, let's follow," Yuan Tai said, and then asked, "Which group are we following?"

"The first group." Mitsuhiko said.

On the way, Conan inquired about the rules. The rules are very simple. The children take their shopping lists and money and start from Mihua Park to the Mihua Town Commercial Street, which is 500 meters away. All the products were bought back. During this period, the adults around were not allowed to talk to them, nor could they help them. Those who took pictures were also considered "adults".

There were five people in the first group. A child went back to find his mother after walking a short distance. Mitsuhiko and Conan turned around to shoot, and found that he refused to leave when his mother didn't answer the questions, so he gave up shooting.

Just after Mitsuhiko and Conan caught up with Ayumi and Genta, they found that another child deviated from the "established track" and entered an electronic game room. After following them, they found that they were already "playing". Well, this one is out too.

Not far away, a little girl fell behind because she was looking at the clothes and toys in the window on the side of the road, and then burst into tears because she got lost. Under Yuantai's assignment, Conan took the little girl back to Mihua Park and handed it over to her family.

On the way to catch up with the three members of the detective team again, Conan found a little fat man walking towards Mihua Park with two bags of things. At first he thought it was someone who had completed the task, but when he got closer, he saw that he was carrying all kinds of snacks. Conan was speechless, it turned out that he was out again.

After catching up with the three members of the detective team, Conan looked at the little boy carrying a small basket in front of him and asked, "Is this the only one left?"

Ayumi said, "Well, his name is Xiaohong."

Mitsuhiko said, "I live near Ayumi's house."

Conan asked, "What is he holding in his hand?"

Yuan Tai said: "That's Masked Rider."

Holding Kamen Rider and talking about self-drawing, Conan remembered that he used to play detective games, and said with emotion, it seems that Xiaohong is also an only child, so he can only play alone.

Yuan Tai asked: "By the way, what is Xiaohong going to buy?"

Mitsuhiko said: "A toothbrush, fried tofu, and a red envelope bag."

Yuan Tai asked: "Red envelope bag? Where can I buy it?"

"Well," Mitsuhiko thought for a while and smiled, "Maybe it's in the bank."

Ayumi said, "It seems right."

Really, it’s fine for you guys to participate too, Conan smiled in his heart, maybe it would be more interesting this way.

At this time, when we reached the tram track, the siren sounded, and the barrier began to be lowered. Xiaohong ran across the tram track, and the four detectives were one step behind, so they had to wait for the tram to pass.

Afterwards, the four members of the detective team found that Xiaohong was missing, and Yuan Tai said, "He should not have gone too far."

Mitsuhiko said: "This place seems to be very close to Ayumi's house."

The inquiring is really clear, Conan smiled in his heart.

Yuan Tai asked: "So this place is very close to Xiaohong's house. Could it be that he is going home?"

Thinking of how he used to play in the open space near his home, Conan asked, "Is there any open space near here?"

"Yes, come with me." Ayumi said.

But when we got to the open space, we found that Xiaohong was not there at all, but Conan found a tire mark on the ground, "Look at the light tire mark on the front, and the deep tire mark on the back, it means that something has been added to the bicycle."

"It turned out to be riding on a bicycle." Yuan Tai said, "Let's catch up quickly."

Not long after, the four members of the detective team saw Xiaohong waving his hands beside an abandoned building.

Yuan Tai, who was running panting, said: "Then, that kid actually waved at us."

Mitsuhiko said: "I think he is just playing us."

Ayumi said, "No, I don't think Hiroshi is that kind of kid."

Yuan Tai said: "This is an abandoned building, what do you think Xiao Hong is doing here?"

Conan said: "Maybe it's a secret base or something."

Ayumi said: "He left again, don't talk about it, let's keep up."

Soon after, the four members of the detective team followed Xiaohong into the commercial street.

Ayumi said into the microphone as she walked: "Now I have finally reached the shopping street. I don't know if Xiaohong can complete the task of shopping. He passed the convenience store selling toothbrushes, not to buy fried tofu Right? Xiaohong went to a stationery store, and now he buys, uh, red envelopes."

Mitsuhiko said: "It turns out that the red envelope bag was bought in a stationery store."

Yuan Tai said: "Well, I remember, Mitsuhiko, let's buy more at the end of the year."

Mitsuhiko said with a smile: "At that time, you will be able to get a lot of red envelopes."

Please, Conan smiled in his heart, the red envelopes are for other people's children.

The four members of the detective team followed Xiaohong all the way, and suddenly found that the cement pipe on a construction vehicle rolled down on the roadside not far from him. The four shouted quickly, but the shopping street was so noisy that Xiaohong didn't hear it. So he continued to walk forward without losing his head, but he also avoided the cement pipe.

The detective team breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately followed. Conan went around to the construction vehicle to have a look, and found that the rope tied to the cement pipe was broken. Conan took a closer look and was taken aback again. The fracture was smooth, obviously cut by a sharp weapon.

What happened? Before Conan could think about it, he heard Ayumi's scream, and immediately ran to follow the sound, and then found a car rushing from the slope to Xiaohong below.

Conan found that there was a sporting goods store right next to it, and a child bought a football. He immediately flicked the football off the child's hand, then turned the knob on the shoe, chased after him and kicked the football.

Watching the football break through the front window of the car heading towards Xiaohong, hit the steering wheel, make the car divert, and hit the street light at the intersection, and Xiaohong is still walking with Masked Superman while playing by himself, completely unaware Conan, who was running over, breathed a sigh of relief, luck is good, no, I have good footwork.

Conan ran to the front of the car and heard the detective team questioning the owner of the car who came in a hurry, and the owner of the car held his head in pain and said, "I obviously pulled the handbrake just now."

Just now and this, is someone targeting Xiaohong? But why? Conan suddenly found that Xiaohong was missing, and immediately called the three detectives to search for him on the commercial street.

More than half an hour later, Ayumi found a Kamen Rider on the ground in a back alley, and then called the others over.

Conan said, "This is the Kamen Rider that Xiaohong just took."

Yuan Tai asked: "But what about Xiao Hong?"

Mitsuhiko said: "I think he has started shopping again."

Conan rubbed his chin and said, "No, this thing is his most important playmate to Xiaohong. It's really unreasonable for him to leave it here."

Ayumi asked: "Then where will Xiaohong go?"

"I don't know," Conan said, "but what is certain is that he didn't go by himself, he was taken away, he was kidnapped here."

"Tie, kidnap?" The three detectives were taken aback.

Yuan Tai asked, "Who is it?"

"I don't know yet." Conan said, thinking at the same time, but it is true that someone wanted to make others think that Xiaohong had an accident and actually wanted to kill him, but he failed twice.

Ayumi said anxiously: "If this is the case, it will be bad."

Yuan Tai asked: "Will Xiao Hong be killed?"

Mitsuhiko said, "Let's hurry up and notify the police."

Conan said: "But these are just my speculations. There is no evidence. I don't know if the police will believe it."

Ayumi asked, "Then what should we do?"

Mitsuhiko asked, "Let's find Detective Mori, or Brother Yamazaki?"

"What are you looking for, aren't we the Boys Detective Team?" Yuan Tai shouted, "Young Detective Team, move out!"

"Move out!" Ayumi and Mitsuhiko echoed.

"That's fine, let's find Xiaohong first, and then call the police." Conan said, "It would be best if this is just me worrying too much."

Another half an hour later, the four members of the detective team still couldn't find Xiaohong.

Conan said: "Genta, Mitsuhiko, your cameras are constantly shooting, right? Release them to see if there are any clues."

Watching the whole process through two cameras, Conan suddenly found that when Xiao Hiroshi was waving outside the abandoned building, the angle did not seem to be facing the four members of the detective team, so he asked Genta and Mitsuhiko to play this video repeatedly several times. over and over again, and let them freeze to a halt.

Conan said: "Look carefully, on Yuantai's camera, Xiaohong seems to be waving in the direction where we are all, but on Mitsuhiko's camera..."

Yuan Tai asked: "What is this?"

Mitsuhiko said: "This is a corner mirror, a mirror that helps car drivers see the road."

Ayumi asked: "Could it be that Xiaohong was waving at this mirror at that time?"

"That's right," Conan said, "but it's more accurate to say that Xiao Hiroshi should have waved at the person reflected in the mirror."

"So that's how it is." Yuan Tai said, "Now I finally understand that Xiao Hong was waving at someone in that abandoned building at that time."

"That's right, Xiao Hiro didn't come there because it was his secret base, and he wanted to play in it alone," Conan said, "In fact, Xiao Hiro came here for some purpose, but what is it? clear."

Ayumi asked: "But, what does this have to do with Xiaohong being kidnapped?"

"That's what we're going to start investigating," Conan said.

"Then what are you waiting for?" Yuan Tai said, "Let's go and investigate there immediately."...
