Chapter 470 This detective is worth silence

. Please give me a monthly ticket.

When Conan just heard that he was going to the police station to provide testimony, he remembered that that time period was exactly the time for the movie they had made with Jiang Xia.

When Conan asked about this, the naughty kids said that it was not a big problem.

Conan then naively thought that the three children had already told Jiang Xia that they were going to release Jiang Xia's pigeons.

Unexpectedly, when the appointment was made, the naughty child stammered and asked him to call Jiang Xia and turned down the incident of watching movies together - it was like a group of life-gambling madmen who postponed their holiday homework until the last night, and they didn't want to face it.

Conan had always had no choice but to treat these children. He sighed and took out his cell phone.

Conan is not afraid of Jiang Xia.

But he is not afraid of being afraid of returning. As a representative of the pigeon, he still feels guilty of being with the naughty children.

——In Conan’s opinion, Jiang Xia is persistent in asking children to go out to watch movies together. Maybe because Jiang Xia didn’t have the chance to experience it when she was a child, so now she is curious to try “Everyone sits in the cinema to watch the childhood memory series of movies together.”

Since that's the case...

After Conan released the pigeons, he seized time to repair his conscience in Jiang Xia's silent space:

"Speaking of this, I bought mystery novels yesterday and got a few movie tickets to the lottery. Why not call Xiaolan and the others to go together tomorrow."

...Xiaolan is definitely not afraid of Jiang Xia, nor will she be delayed by the incident and frequently break her appointments like these ignorant naughty children.

Moreover, Conan was very concerned - he felt that the reason why Jiang Xia insisted on taking the children with him instead of asking friends such as Ran Mori to watch Gomela movies together was probably because he felt that it was too embarrassing to watch such children's movies for high school students.

The reason for "lottery" can solve this problem smoothly. After all, it is something you draw, and you don't look at it without looking at it. Moreover, with him, a "child", Ran Maori and Yuanko Suzuki will not feel too unnatural.

Jiang Xia still didn't say anything opposite the phone. Through the receiver, he could vaguely hear his breathing - it didn't seem like he threw the phone away in anger, but was pondering.

Conan paused and glanced at the teenage detective group next to him. Thinking about it, Jiang Xia, who might have gone out and almost arrived at the cinema, but was innocently slapped, couldn't help but whisper:

"By the way, Officer Sato seems to have encountered a difficult case. If you have no other arrangements, you can take the time to contact her and ask for details."

...As for Jiang Xia after asking the details, whether she would come to see Officer Sato, and then meet the children who were following Officer Sato to confirm the sightings, that was another matter.

Later, Conan discovered that Jiang Xia was indeed able to "feel the meaning of his own existence from solving the case" as he said himself.

——Unlike the silence just now, Jiang Xia quickly responded to this sentence about "difficult cases", and seemed to be in a good mood: "Okay, I'll ask, you should pay more attention to safety when investigating."

"Yeah." Conan breathed a sigh of relief and hung up the phone.

Then he ignored the angry look of the three children as if they were telling the "traitor!", took out his wallet, and glanced bitterly at the thin sheets of paper money inside.

Conan just said that he won the movie ticket... It is impossible to draw a lottery. Maori and Jiangxia are both good at this kind of thing, but he is much inferior.

Originally, Conan planned to use the remaining pocket money to buy a newly released Detective Zuowen hardcover version.

But now, we have to buy four more tickets. In short, the remaining money is not enough to buy a whole set of books. But if we buy one or two less, it will be meaningless to collect...

Conan was struggling for a moment, and a card that seemed to be emitting golden light slowly appeared in his mind.

——His father’s credit card.

...Well, that's what it was decided.

After all, this body cannot work, and the money will only be used less and less. In the past, I could use a month's pocket money, but now it is always not enough... Before recovering, I'd better hug my parents' thighs.

...

The scheduled movie itinerary was cancelled.

Jiang Xia glanced at her cell phone a little bored, remembering what Conan said later, "Anyway, he was idle, so he called Officer Sato."

The phone was quickly answered.

"Eixia?" Sato Mikako was a little confused at first, and then suddenly became alert, "You want to call the police? How are the prisoners?"

Jiang Xia: "..."

Does Officer Sato have a little misunderstanding about him...

Jiang Xia decided not to care about these trivial things: "No, I didn't encounter a case. I just heard Conan say that you have a difficult case here, so I want to ask if you need help."

Sato Mikako breathed a sigh of relief: "It's good that I didn't meet a prisoner. It turned out that Conan was calling you just now..."

She was at this time with the teenage detective group - Officer Sato was responsible for bringing Asumi to the place where she saw the suspect in the arson, confirm the sightings, and searching for evidence around.

When Conan called just now, Mikako Sato happened to receive a call from Meguro's police department, but she didn't pay attention to what Conan said.

Now it seems that she thought that this child with glasses was actually reporting a message to Jiang Xia. The speed of transmission of the message was very fast... Could it be that the abnormal words and deeds that Conan had shown before were also related to the close communication between him and Jiang Xia?

Sato Mikako's thinking went a little bit apart, and quickly took it back, turning to what Jiangxia had just asked about her.

"We are pursuing an arsonist." After Sato Mikako said that, she suddenly remembered that the arsonist had not left any puzzles at the moment, and probably could not be considered a "difficult case" in the eyes of the detectives. What Conan and Jiangxia should be referring to was another case that they were talking about when they were chatting just now.

Considering the detective's strong curiosity and Ekatsu's occasional extraordinary action, Mikako Sato patiently explained:

"In fact, it's not a difficult case - I brought Aomi and others to confirm the scene of the sighting of the arsonist. This area is very close to the place where my father died. So on the way, I went to pay tribute to my father, and then met a few of my father's old classmates and talked about the mystery of that year.

"The child doesn't understand the statute of limitations for prosecution. Conan may mistakenly think that is the current case, so he wants to ask you to investigate the prisoner... But in fact, the case that led to my father's death occurred 18 years ago, and it has been three years since the prosecution period ended."

Jiang Xia gradually became impressed by listening to a few keywords: "Is it the 'Sad Son' incident'?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly felt something, his eyes paused slightly, and the afterglow turned to a certain direction.

Just now, a subway line entered the station.

After the vehicle stopped, four gray-haired elderly men walked out of the car with laughter and talking.

When they walked towards the exit and passed by Jiang Xia, the four of them heard the word "Shou Silang Incident" and subconsciously glanced in the direction where Jiang Xia was.

One of the short men was suddenly stunned after recognizing Jiang Xia's detective identity.
