Chapter 726 The Result of the Old House

August 12th, Thursday, before noon, on the way back, Dr. A Li's car.

On the back seat, Ayumi opened a toy box and found it was a puppet, so she put it on her hand. Mitsuhiko was stunned for a moment, and then called out, "Ah, no, I forgot, I registered for you at the children's club in the town, and training will be held in the afternoon."

"Huh?" Conan and the others were taken aback.

"That's how it is," Mitsuhiko said, "The college student next door to my house, Haibu Hajime, is a volunteer at the Children's Association in the town. There will be an event at the Children's Association on the 15th, but there is not enough team members for one of the programs. Haibu brother came to see me yesterday. , I would like to ask our Boys Detective Team for help."

Yuan Tai asked, "What program?"

"It's a puppet show," Mitsuhiko said with a smile, "Agatha Christine's masterpiece "And Then Everyone Disappeared."

Ayumi asked, "What's that?"

"This is a detective drama." Conan laughed. "It tells the story of people trapped on a certain island, all of whom were killed one by one."

"It seems quite interesting." Yuan Tai said.

Mitsuhiko said with a smile: "Brother Kaibu also said that tomorrow he will take us to the Asagiri Plateau in Shizuoka Prefecture for a training camp, where you can see the famous 'Inverse Fuji' at Lake Tanuki."

"Really? That's great, I agree." Ayumi smiled happily, "We saw Mount Fuji from the plane last time, and this time from the lake..."

"Then I agree." Yuan Tai smiled.

"I'm not going," Conan said.

"Me too, don't look for me." Huiyuan said.

"But, but," Mitsuhiko said hesitantly, "I have already promised Brother Haibu."

"Alright then." Conan turned around helplessly and said, "Count me in."

"That's great." Ayumi asked happily, "What about Haibara-san?"

"I'm not going." Huiyuan said without turning his head, "You promised the matter, and you can find a way to solve it yourself. Maybe this can teach you not to promise things for others."

"Ah? What should I do?" Mitsuhiko said with a bitter face.

"Hey, hey, he's still a child, so there's no need to talk about it." Conan whispered to Hui Yuan.

"Are you a child too?" Huiyuan asked back.

"Let yourself relax once in a while." Conan raised his triangular eyes.

"Aren't I relaxing now?" Huiyuan rolled his eyes, "I'm not as idle as you."

"Xiao Ai really doesn't have much time recently. She is doing an experiment and needs to take care of the mice every day." Dr. A Li said in a low voice, "These mice are worth hundreds of thousands of yen each. If you miss something, the loss will be huge." big."

"Don't explain to this guy." Huiyuan said angrily.

"Okay, I was wrong." Conan smiled wryly, then turned to Mitsuhiko and said, "Why don't you just find a classmate, there are Kujiu Fumino and Okano Hiroya from the other class."

"Ninety-Nine Fumino?" Ayumi objected, "No, absolutely not." Then asked, "Conan, why do you have to find Kunine Fumino?"

"C-casual, I just said it casually." Conan's sweat came down, making Haibara laugh.

"That's good. I'll call my classmates when I get back,

Bring a classmate over. "Guang Yan laughed.  …

Noon, Maori Detective Agency.

While eating lunch, Conan told Lan that he had participated in the program of the Children's Association in the town, and that he would go to Asagiri Highland for training tomorrow.

"Asagiri Plateau? Then you have to be careful, and you must lock the doors and windows at night." Maori said, "The morning news said that the decorations in a high-end holiday villa in Chaogiri Plateau were missing. The police speculated that something happened last night." A case of a robber breaking into an empty door."

"Huh?" Lan was taken aback, and quickly said, "Conan, you better not go."

"It's okay, Sister Lan, it's just a robber who broke into an empty door. Just lock the doors and windows as uncle said, and he must have run away by now." Conan laughed, thinking in his heart, if he hit It's even better.

"That's true." Lan breathed a sigh of relief.

Not long after, Conan finished his meal and left.

After a while, Yamazaki came over, "Just now Mei Daizi received a call from Dr. Asai, Okuda Lunming woke up and can talk to people, Lan, are you going?"

"Okay, I'll go too." Lan asked, "But just the two of us?"

"I have notified Dr. Ali, he will be here soon." Yamazaki said, "Mei Daizi is calling Sonoko, she should come."

"I see." Lan smiled.

After that, Yamazaki asked Maori what he meant, and Maori said that it would be fine to read Yamazaki's report. ...

In the afternoon, Good Mood General Hospital, Okuda Lunmei Ward.

When the five of Dr. Ali arrived, Okuda Lunmei was looking at his hands in a daze.

"Cough!" Dr. Ali knocked on the door.

Okuda Lunming came back to his senses, and looked at the five people, "You are, those people from yesterday, thank you for sending me here."

"Mr. Okuda Lunmei, I am Dr. Ari, a relative of the owner of that villa." Dr. Ari said, and then asked, "Mr. Okuda, can you tell me why you are there?"

Mei Daizi smiled and said, "It's best to start from the beginning."

Okuda thought for a while and said, "Alright, let me tell you." Then he recalled, "I'm from Hiroshima. When the accident happened, my brother and I were going to university in other places." Then he said bitterly, " I really hate, I hate America." Then he took a few breaths, calmed down, and recalled, "My family is a sculptor, I have no talent, and I can't endure hardship, so my skills are not good. But my brother and I are not Similarly, one day, I thought of using fake banknotes to disrupt the financial order in the United States. My brother agreed and made a twenty-dollar template. But when things were about to start, my brother disappeared with the template. Yes. I searched, searched, searched, but couldn’t find it. During this period, I suffered a lot from having no money. Slowly, I don’t know when, revenge turned into wealth. Until five years ago, I received I found the letter from my brother according to the address. After seeing my brother, I realized that the reason why I couldn’t find him was because my brother didn’t even have a household registration. I thought I could get the template now, but my brother second Tian disappeared again. I heard from people nearby that my brother was working as a painting teacher there. I thought that my brother would definitely come back, so I rented a house nearby. When we arrived, you asked the owner of the convenience store about my brother's situation, he called me and told me, and I went to find you."

"I see." Dr. A Li said.

"Now it's your turn," Okuda said.

"I just found out about Mr. Okuda in the past two days." Dr. Ali said, "Master Okuda is a friend of my uncle and aunt. After they knew that he was hiding from you, they left the villa for him to hide. .”

Okuda Lunmei said, "Do you know why he wanted to hide from me?"

"Well," Dr. Ali said, "Illustrator Okuda didn't want you to go down the path of crime, and he didn't want to expose you, so he didn't come to reunite with you until he knew that the template in his hand was useless."

"O, so that's the case." Okuda Lunmei said, and then murmured to himself, "But, why didn't you tell me directly, thirty years, I've been looking for you for thirty years."

"Cough!" Yamazaki said, "Excuse me for my talk, may I ask, Mr. Okuda, where did I send the letter from Mr. Okuda?"

"My house, no, our house, no, my brother's house." Okuda Lunming said, "I am ashamed to say that the house was transferred to me by my brother." Then he recalled, "I abandoned my studies back then, and then I came to Tokyo They all came to join my elder brother, and my elder brother transferred the house to my name before he left." Then he came back to his senses, "Why do you ask this?"

Yamazaki said: "Maybe your brother has been paying attention to you, and your previous state is obviously not convincing by words."

"Maybe." Okuda Lunmei was silent for a moment, and then asked, "By the way, you guys, do you know where my brother is?"

"I'm sorry." Dr. Ali said, "Illustrator Okuda has passed away."

"What!" Okuda Lunming was taken aback.

"Your brother wasn't hiding from you, but because of a heart attack, he died in the attic where he lived on the night you met." Yamazaki said, "Maybe it's because of my wish. Excited." He said and put the suitcase of Illustrator Okuda on the hospital bed, "This is the relic of Illustrator Okuda, and your pistol is also inside."

"Pistol?" Sonoko was taken aback, then saw Okuda Lunming stretch out his trembling hand and pressed it on the suitcase in front of him, and asked in a low voice, "Give him the pistol, will he..." He said and put his finger on the suitcase. On the temple, made a suicidal pose.

"No," Mei Daizi said in a low voice, "I disassembled the pistol into its parts, and even ground the key parts, so it can no longer be assembled."

"That's good." Lan said softly, patting her heart.

Yamazaki said in a low voice: "Okay, let's go, there is nothing to see below, let Dr. Ali wait for the lawyer with him here."

Afterwards, the four of Yamazaki left the ward amid the howls of Okuda Lunmei. ...

Not long after leaving the hospital, Yuanzi's mobile phone rang. It was Jingji. Yuanzi answered the phone happily, and then heard that her injury had recovered. Daizi said angrily: "You quickly settle the matter for me."

"It doesn't seem to be my fault." Mei Daizi laughed.

"I said yes." Sonoko said through gritted teeth.

"Okay, okay." Mei Daizi said helplessly, and then answered the phone, "I'm Mei Daizi, where are you?"

Kyogoku said: "I just came down from Mount Fuji, and I am now on the side of Fuji Palace."

"Fuji Palace?" Mei Daizi said, "This..."

"Wait," Lan said, "Conan and the others are going to the Asagiri Highlands. I'm really worried about the bandit incident just happened there. Why don't we go too?"

"Ha, you really care about your kid." Yuanzi laughed.

"Then you don't have to go." Lan said with a wicked smile.

"No," Yuanzi said with a smile, "I agree, it's settled."

"Okay then," Mei Daizi said on her mobile phone, "You are waiting at Chaowu Plateau, and I will call you when the time comes."

"No problem." Kyogoku said excitedly, "That's it."

"Okay." Mei Daizi said.

"Hey, hey, tell him not to hang up," Yuanzi said.

"He's already hung up." Mei Daizi gave Yuanzi her cell phone.

Yuanzi took the mobile phone and looked at it, and it was hung up, "Really."

Yamazaki asked: "Is this the same way he usually calls?"

"I know what you want to say," Yuanzi said helplessly, "but this is the first time we talked on the phone."

"Ah? Isn't it?" Mei Daizi asked back.

"Really?" Lan asked.

"How dare I call him." Yuanzi said with a blushing face, and then said to Mei Daizi, "I didn't know it was you."

"This has nothing to do with me, okay?" Mei Daizi said helplessly.

"I don't care, anyway, you have to pay me, Mei Daizi." Yuanzi smiled, "I haven't thought about what to pay for, it's just a favor, and the details will be discussed later."

"Hey, I haven't agreed yet." Mei Daizi said angrily.

"It's okay, I'll be Mei Daizi and you agree." Yuanzi smiled, "That's it."

"..." Mei Daizi was speechless, but Yamazaki and Lan couldn't help laughing.

"Okay, I'm in a much better mood." Yuanzi smiled, "Let's go and go shopping, I haven't been here for a long time." Then he asked, "Mei Daizi, what do you recommend?"

"It's not uncommon for you to know that the only large stores here are the shopping mall in the Ribe Building, and the shopping street on both sides of the intersection between Good Mood Station and the Ribe Building, and the rest are convenience store level." Mei Dai Zi said.

Lan smiled and said, "Then let's go to the central square of Crossroads. In summer there are ice cream food activities."

"Almost forgot," Yuanzi said with a smile, "Okay, let's go there, let's go!"...

Afternoon, Miyamoto's house, living room.

When Miko Miyamoto came back, Yamazaki briefly talked about the past two days.

Mei Daizi asked, "Mom, can we buy Uncle Ali's house and the adjacent land?"

"Why?" Miko Miyamoto smiled, "If you have a reason, you can consider it."

"Yes." Mei Daizi said, "The neighborhood is just a forest of miscellaneous trees. It would be nice to build a paintball range, or knock it down and build a horse farm. And it's close to the leisure center with a good mood, so it can be connected together."

"Not enough." Miyamoto Miko asked with a smile, "Is there any more?"

"There is another one," Mei Daizi said, "This way, Dr. Ali's uncle's old bungalow can be rebuilt in situ, so that it can live for decades. Anyway, there is also a need for a holiday villa there."

"Yes." Miyamoto Ichiro nodded.

"Since Ichiro nodded, I have no reason not to agree." Miyamoto Miko said with a smile, "Let's do it like this."

"Great." Mei Daizi smiled happily, "Thank you dad, thank you mom."

"I want to ask you a question, what if I get old again?" Miko Miyamoto asked.

"Well," Mei Daizi said after thinking for a while, "We'll talk about it at that time. It doesn't matter if it's simple and convenient."

"Good answer." Miko Miyamoto smiled, then looked at the time, and smiled at Ichiro Miyamoto, "It's getting late, let's have dinner."

"Okay." Miyamoto Ichiro said. ...

A few days later, Lunming Okuda went through the formalities and obtained the estate of the painter Okuda. He was convalescing in the hospital for more than a year because he cried a lot and hurt his vitality. During this period, he was notified that his old house was coming soon. The number of years expired, so it was converted into a rental apartment. ...

Not long after, Dr. Ali's uncle's old bungalow and the surrounding land were bought by good mood.

This piece of land was later developed into a leisure horse farm, which was included in the Leisure Center of Good Mood, whose main facilities are a golf course and a shooting range.

After the reconstruction of the old bungalow, Dr. Ali put the oil painting of his uncle and aunt in the living room, and took the self-portrait of his elder brother Okuda Lunmei when he was young and put it next to the oil painting. ...

The next day, August 13th, Friday, in the morning, Haibu Zhao drove ten children, including Conan, Yuantai, and their classmates, to Chaowu Plateau. ...
