MTL - Conan’s World Stand-in-Chapter 25 old man in wheelchair

"Come back to the garden."

Compared to the stern-looking mother, Sonoko's father greeted Sonoko with a smile, it seems that this is a pair of parents who belong to the type of loving father and strict mother.

"Really, remember to knock on the door even at home, how can you be so rude."

"No, no, this shows that she is very energetic. She is young and full of energy. Unlike me, I can't move if I want to. This is the love." The old man in the wheelchair smiled and slapped. The rounder, with his right leg in thick casts and bandages, doesn't appear to be born with a disability.

I don't know why, when Guan Dounan saw this old man, he always had an inexplicable sense of sight, as if he had seen him somewhere... This is even more inexplicable. With the ability to stand in, he can remember all the encounters he encountered after crossing over. The appearance of a man, but there is simply no such old man.

Is it a character from the original Conan animation? Because the two and three-dimensional painting styles are so different, I can't recognize them...

"Yes, this is my second daughter, Sonoko. The eldest daughter, Ayako, is currently studying at a graduate school outside." Sonoko's father introduced.

"It really makes you laugh. Even though he is so old, he has no self-consciousness to be the heir of the Suzuki Consortium. He only knows how to play all day, and..." Sonoko's mother's eyes swept over several people, and finally locked on Guan Dounan." and chasing stars."

Seems to be taking me as a star? However, this misunderstanding is not surprising. Guan Dounan guessed in his heart.

"Ahaha, yes, behind her are her friends Maurilan and Kudo Shinichi, and these two are..."

"Guan Dounan, I'm Suzuki's senior. This is Yuedong Linghua, my classmate and my friend."

Because there are several people with the surname "Suzuki", Guan Dounan took it for granted that he used his first name to call Sonoko. After all, Kudo Shinichi and Xiaolan also called it that way, but on second thought, it seemed a bit too intimate, so I should change it. mouth.

"Ah, that's right. Xiaolan's father used to be a criminal police officer, but now he's a private investigator. Do you want to consult him about what I just said?"

Yuanzi's father greeted Guan Dounan and the others, and suddenly asked like an old man in a wheelchair as if he remembered something.

"Well..." The old man in the wheelchair seemed a little hesitant to say anything.

"What's wrong?" Kudo Case Hound Shinichi asked sharply.

"That's right, this is Mr. Sewa, an art collector. He originally planned to hold a private reception tomorrow, but he came to invite me today. But I also have a gem exhibition planning meeting at the Rice Flower Museum tomorrow, so I can't take it off. Let's go. What a waste of Mr. Seba's enthusiasm to invite me while dragging his sick body." Sonoko's father explained.

"You don't have to say that, I'm already very satisfied with President Suzuki's intention. To be honest, at the beginning of this reception, someone sent a threatening letter, saying that I should cancel this arrangement, otherwise I would be Let deaths occur at the reception." Mr. Sewa waved his hand and said.

"Ah, if that's the case, let this guy help." Sonoko pointed at Kudo Shinichi with his thumb, "This guy has helped the police solve many difficult cases, and he is a famous high school detective. Although that may not be the case. Great, but he should be more reliable than Xiaolan's father."

The accused Kudo Shinichi also put on a confident expression, as if waiting for Seba to entrust the case to him.

"Ah... No, no need. I don't really care about those threatening letters. You can see my personality more or less when you see me like this and go out in person, right? I'm very brave." After hearing about Kudo Shinichi's name, he was stunned for a moment, then he waved his hand and made a righteous appearance, "I've already invited professional security personnel for tomorrow's reception, so I don't need to look for it again. Detectives are investigating."

"The person I want to send the letter is probably a guy who is jealous of me. After all, my collection is not popular in their eyes, but it is more famous than many of them..."

"Yes, Mr. Sewa is famous not only in neon, but also in the world." Sonoko's father introduced to several young people, "Although Mr. Sewa is also an art collector, he does not collect 'authentic works'. ', and likes to collect imitations of famous paintings that are so ingenious that they can almost be faked."

"Haha, it's just a personal hobby. I'm talking about imitations, but it's actually a fake. Although my hobby is always viewed in a different light, it's also thanks to it, the one who has been active in the past one or two years" The famous painting thief didn't even stare at me once." Mr. Seba patted the armrest of the wheelchair, not knowing whether to laugh at himself or smugly.

"Okay, since your daughter and friends are here, it's almost time for us to leave, so we won't delay the lunch at President Suzuki's house." After chatting for a while, Seyu looked at her watch and expressed her intention to leave.

"It doesn't matter, since it happens to be lunch time, it's better to stay and have a light meal."

"No no no..."

The hospitality part between adults is so boring, but when Mrs. Sewa got up and tried to push her husband's wheelchair, the wheelchair moved by itself.

This is an electric wheelchair. Mr. Sewa accidentally bumped into the steering handle of the wheelchair during the polite process. At this time, the wheelchair was rushing backward uncontrollably.

"Danger!"

Just as Guan Dounan and Kudo Shinichi wanted to step forward to help, they felt a pink, faintly scented wind passing by suddenly.

"what!"

Almost just a little longer than the blink of an eye, Xiaolan directly crossed two rows of sofas, a coffee table and a few meters of space, dodged to the back of Mr. Sewa's wheelchair, and stepped on the wheelchair with both feet. back and let it stop.

She was even able to use her free hand to hold the crumbling vase that was knocked into the cabinet. It looked like an antique, which was equivalent to saving tens of millions of yen.

"Ah, really, thank you so much, little girl." Seyu looked like she was in a state of shock, and after a long pause, she finally came to her senses, and smiled at Xiaolan reluctantly.

"As expected of Xiaolan, with such a state, tomorrow's game will be no problem!" Yuanzi applauded Xiaolan from the side. But Yuedong Linghua seemed to be frightened, sitting there in a daze without responding.

"That person just now..." Guan Dounan frowned when he saw Kudo Shinichi next to him making the same action.

"Senior Guan, have you seen it too? The one just now..." Kudo Shinichi turned his head slightly and asked in a low voice.

"Well, if you mean..." Guan Dounan also learned to be a riddleman.

Talking to Kudo Shinichi, this way is more able to match his rhythm, and it is more labor-saving. Anyway, if you don't know what to say, just start the riddle.

…

The frightened Mr. Seba naturally proposed to go home for a rest first, so Sonoko's parents were not willing to stay any longer.

After sending the two away, several young people enjoyed a sumptuous lunch together. To Guan Dounan's surprise, this lunch was not filled with luxurious ingredients such as A+ digital beef or three-foot-long lobsters as expected. The kind you can get in a normal restaurant.

Hmm... It's not every day in the rich family that king crab, abalone, sea cucumber, and large intestine sashimi.

After the meal, a few people started chatting casually. The girls were naturally talking about girls. Although Yuedong Linghua looked a little gloomy when she was in school, and there were rumors of stalkers, but now she is with Sonoko. Xiaolan can also chat normally, but she speaks less and seems to have some concerns.

As for Shinichi Kudo...his reasoning addiction is committed again.

"Mr. Sewa just now, when the wheelchair fell out of control and fell backward, he subconsciously used his foot to rub the ground to brake, and he still used the right foot with casts and bandages. Although he immediately realized that something was wrong. Taking back his foot, even if it doesn't prove that his leg injury is fake, it at least proves that his leg injury is not that serious."

"Then, why did he go to great lengths to create such an illusion? I asked Uncle Suzuki just now, and he said that Seba's leg injury was due to a car accident, and he was put in a cast two months ago. And he planned this. The commercial reception was also two months ago."

"Originally, Uncle Suzuki was not in his invitation range, but today he suddenly came over to invite him in person. This move... is very strange."

"Then why don't you come and see who wrote that threatening letter?"

Guan Dounan, who was a little annoyed by Kudo Shinichi's self-talk and reasoning, interrupted him and took out a five-yuan coin from his pocket—the one he had used before.

"Threatening letter? That kind of thing doesn't necessarily exist, right? Maybe he just made it up. And..." Kudo Shinichi raised his brows, his eyes narrowed, UU reading www.uukanshu.com made a very With an embarrassed expression, "You don't want to use divination to decipher the source of that threatening letter, right? Isn't divination with coins generally a question of right and wrong or a question with only two options?"

"That's why I told you that it's just a ritual action." Guan Dounan tossed the coin high and caught it, "Actually, you can use any action, such as snapping your fingers, drawing cards, turning the wheel, etc. Substitute, or even no action at all."

"But it's more handsome this way, isn't it?"

His divination this time was not a sudden whim, but after listening to the words of Doujin Fuji Shinichi just now, the substitute ability actually met the conditions for activation.

There is a saying that there is no free single draw and no white draw, and the ability that meets the activation conditions does not need to be free. There are also no Ryota Sakagami and Masato Sansei, only Kudo Shinichi Morilan and Suzuki Mariko, three people who have already experimented and can't see their stand-ins. Although Yuedong Linghua has not tested it, he can just use this opportunity to see Let's see if she will also be a stand-in messenger.

Xiao Hei with a bright smile appeared from the ceiling and "falled" directly into Guan Dounan's body.

[A pair of young people's hands are cutting out a single word from the newspaper, the newspapers are all from the gossip entertainment version of some newspapers]

"That letter really exists, and it wasn't made by Seyu himself." Guan Dounan blinked and said to Kudo Shinichi.

"Okay, I believe it, then can you divination the ultimate answer of the universe by the way?"

"There's no need for divination, the answer is 42. But I don't know what the problem with this answer is."

In addition, Yuedong Linghua's performance is not abnormal, it should be certain that there is no substitute.
