Rebirth of Conan as a Detective

The Yirenkan Hotel is located on the top of the slope at the end of the town, with snow-capped mountains behind it. It is quite famous in the surrounding area, and it is used as the stage of the reasoning activity "Mysterious Night" all the year round.

This year's "Mysterious Night" became popular because of the participation of famous troupes, and reasoning fans all over the country paid close attention to it.

Gao Cheng followed Yuanzi into the magnificent lobby of the hotel, and when he opened the door, he heard a burst of crisp Christmas bells.

Different from the cold and silent snow scene outside, the hotel is especially lively, with many weird-looking guys gathered everywhere.

Fortune tellers, psychics... and quite a few guys in deer hats and Sherlock Holmes costumes.

The messy attire makes people almost think they are at a masquerade party.

"That's amazing," Yuanzi said pleasantly. "That fat man is dressed like the great detective Poirot, right? Even Sherlock Holmes has several costumes!"

"Is this Halloween or Christmas..."

Gao Cheng muttered to himself, but it caused a boy beside him to laugh.

"Everyone is the guest of the mysterious night tonight," the boy, wearing a black school uniform, introduced himself to Gaocheng, "My name is Sakata Kojiro, and I am a high school student detective. You are also reasoning fans who are here to participate in the mysterious night? Really?" Well, I thought the participants this time were all uncles."

"Hello."

Gao Cheng took a glance, indeed, they were the only ones of the same age in the hall.

People who will come all the way to participate in this reasoning activity at Christmas are, of course, mostly rich and leisurely uncles.

He and Yuanzi are special cases...

"I happened to go back to my hometown in Hokkaido, so I came to participate in the mysterious night," Sakata Kojiro smiled at Gao Cheng's puzzled eyes, "Aren't you two locals?"

"No, we're from Tokyo."

"It can be seen that although I have studied abroad for a long time and have not been to Tokyo, many of my classmates are from Tokyo."

Sakata Kojiro was quite familiar with himself, he seemed to see something interesting while speaking, he patted Gaocheng on the shoulder and left.

"Then, see you tonight when the mystery drama is on."

"Weird guy..."

Gao Cheng shook his head,

Go to the front desk with Sonoko.

There were still quite a few people checking in, and it was their turn after queuing for a while. The room is at 215 on the 2nd floor, and it is a double room.

"Is the third floor full?"

"Yes," the receptionist nodded and said, "The third floor is fully occupied by the police and theater staff, and the only special room was reserved by the boy just now..."

"Policemen?"

Gao Cheng frowned slightly.

Why are there police here...

"Don't worry too much," the front desk staff explained with a smile, "No case happened, just checked in normally."

"Oh……"

Gao Cheng held the room card and looked towards the stairs in the hall from the corner of his eye.

Two uniformed police officers were reporting to a bespectacled man.

It's the woman I met on the road before!

Gao Cheng looked at the man-in-law in surprise, and vaguely heard something called "vigilance".

It seems that the identity of a very ordinary man-in-law is not small.

"Alright," Yuanzi pulled up Cheng Cheng's sleeves, "it should just be a policeman who came to participate in the mysterious night, Ah Cheng, don't think too much, how could such a coincidence happen again?"

Gao Cheng collected his thoughts, his identity was destined to be more sensitive than others.

And being involved in a murder case is not a child's play, maybe you will be targeted by the murderer and your life will be in danger.

"Huh?" Gao Cheng suddenly realized, "Do we share a room?"

"I can't help it," Yuanzi said slyly, "There are too many people staying in this room, and it's because of my good luck that I got the quota right now."

"Is it so popular?"

Gao Cheng still doesn't quite understand, the room rate these days is not cheap, plus the performance tickets are another expense, and there are also travel expenses, meal expenses, etc...

"Of course," Yuanzi proudly said, "'Aplodi' is a popular troupe right now, and their tickets are hard to come by! And this is their first time participating in "Killing Night". Do not you know?"

"I don't like watching theater performances."

Gao Cheng's thoughts went back a long time ago to the murder incident in the opera house that happened on a small island.

That was probably the only stage performance he had ever seen, and it was just a rehearsal...

"Here we are, this is room 215," the waiter took Gao Cheng and two to find the room, and reminded, "To prevent theft, the data of all rooms will be updated at 12 o'clock every night, so remember to go to the front desk after 12 o'clock Get a new room card."

"OK."

Yuanzi opens the door with his room card. The room is not very big. On the right hand side of the door is the bathroom and toilet, on the left hand side is a table and cabinet, and there is a TV inside. Next to the window is a bedside table and a telephone, and then there is a double bed, a table and chairs .

"Eh?" Yuanzi's face turned red, and he said in a daze, "There is only one bed... Doesn't double room mean twin bed room?"

"Look, it doesn't look like it." Gao Cheng's heartbeat speeded up faintly.

Could it be that tonight...

...

Tokyo, racetrack.

With the galloping of the horses, the whole arena was full of shouts, dense crowd of spectators, holding up the tickets hoarsely cheering for the racehorses they had hoped for, and finally stood up with ferocious faces, wishing to run into the arena to replace the racehorses.

There is a unique figure among this group of people, shouting harder than others, holding a special horse racing newspaper in his hand, staring at big bloodshot eyes, with bulging veins on his neck, in this cold weather Still dripping with sweat.

"Come on! Overtake them!"

"Rush!"

Conan covered his ears and huddled in his seat, reminding Kogoro Mori who lost his composure: "You can't bet on the next game, uncle! If you spend all the money, sister Xiaolan will scold me!"

This dead old man can't save money at all, and the entrustment fee he finally earned is often not enough to last for a long time, and his child support has long been spent by this old man.

No, he came here to bet on the horses just after getting paid for his work.

Thinking of Xiaolan's exhortation, Conan secretly sighed.

"It's so long-winded! I know!" Mori Kogoro focused on the horse race he was betting on.

At present, he still maintains the leading advantage, and his vision is really good...

—————

"Here we come! Keep going!"

Under Mao Li's excited gaze, the No. 8 racehorse who was behind suddenly started to sprint, gradually surpassed the second place, and finally overtook the first place to complete the counterattack.

"Eh? Isn't it? Come again!"

Molly lowered his hands in amazement.

Every time he bet on the late horse, the leading horse would win. If he bet on the leading horse, the late horse would win. How could there be such a wicked thing?

"Okay uncle," Conan said with no surprise, "let's go back."

"It's too early to go back now!" Mao Li said angrily, "Either put all the rest of the money in, or spend the money on drinking to relieve your worries...you choose one for me!"

"..."

Conan's eyelids sank.

This old man is really hopeless...

"Uncle, have you forgotten how you swore in Singapore? It's only been a few days..."

"This... well, of course I know."

Mori Kogoro was a little discouraged.

He admits he can't...

"Speaking of which, what about Kido?" Maori asked strangely, "When I passed by today, his office didn't seem to be open."

"Brother Kido has gone to Hokkaido. It seems that he is going to a gathering of reasoning fans." Conan was not surprised, thinking that Gao Cheng went out temporarily to avoid trouble.

"Did you go to the reasoning fan meeting in winter?"

"I don't know too well. Sister Xiaolan said so."

Mori Kogoro couldn't ask anything from Conan, so he could only make up his own mind.

Going to Hokkaido is not only skiing but also hot springs, no, maybe there are beautiful and charming ladies...

"Really, there is such a good thing that you don't tell us." Mao Li muttered.

If he had gone to Hokkaido, he wouldn't have lost money just now...
