Chapter 49 Moths Flying into Flame (2)
Uncle Maori and Xiaolan both sympathized with Miss Yamei.
Conan too.
The way this rustic girl, who looked about the same age as Xiao Lan, covered her face and sobbed deeply impressed their hearts.
Uncle Maori feels that he has shouldered a heavy burden, and Xiaolan, who rarely participates in Uncle Maori's commissions, is also very motivated.
"Miss Masami, don't worry!" Xiaolan stood outside the door to see Masami Hirota off. "My father is a detective, and he will definitely find Mr. Hirota!"
Miss Yamei turned around, a sweet smile overflowing from her tear-stained face.
"So cute..." Conan couldn't help but whisper.
Fengyuan couldn't help but glance at Conan, and then said goodbye to Uncle Maori and Xiaolan.
If it's too late, it's not suitable for children to go back alone.
…
Conan's previous mysterious operation saved Maplehara the effort of attaching the transmitter himself.
After walking for a while and leaving the sight of the Mori Detective Agency, Maplehara took out his pair of tracking glasses from his pocket, put them on, and then tapped the frame on the right.
The location of the transmitter was immediately displayed on the glasses.
Because of Hirota Masami's crying, Conan seemed to have completely forgotten about the transmitter.
Judging from the signal, Masami Hirota was traveling at a slow and even speed. It seemed that she had no intention of taking a ride nearby or running away quickly, so Maplehara followed slowly at a safe distance.
Miss Yamei walked for a while, turned a few corners, and then stopped.
Relying on the memory belonging to Kudo Shinichi, Fengyuan knew that there was a small alley.
Approaching softly, Fengyuan could hear Miss Masami's uneven breathing.
No one else was around.
Feng Yuan thought for a moment, turned off the tracking glasses, then took out his mobile phone, and then called Dr. A Li's house.
Hirota Masami stood in the dark alley, looking at her own shadow under the street lamp in trance.
Sometimes she feels that it would be better if she was just a small shadow.
With a self-deprecating smile, Hirota Masami took off her glasses and loosened her braided hair.
This makes her no longer look like Xiaolan's peers.
Now she looks more like a beautiful woman in her early twenties.
She closed her eyes again, took a deep breath, and calmed herself down before opening her eyes again.
At this moment, her eyes were not as weak and helpless as they were at the Maori Detective Agency, but more firm and decisive.
Then, a voice came from beside her.
"I know, Grandpa, I'm going back now."
A kid on the phone?
Masami Hirota, who was tensed upon hearing the voice, breathed a sigh of relief.
But...this voice seems a bit familiar?
The child stopped in front of him, turned slightly and put down the phone. Although the street lights were not bright enough to see clearly, Hirota Masami still recognized it.
Because she had just met the child not long ago.
Is... called Conan?
She didn't pay much attention to the two children at Detective Maori's house before, but she vaguely remembered that the one wearing glasses was said a few words by Detective Maori.
Hirota Masami was a little nervous, worried that she would be recognized.
Feng Yuan stuffed his phone back into his pocket.
Masami Hirota, who was slightly stunned, watched "Conan" turn around and glance at herself.
Then, "Conan" showed a puzzled expression on his face, "Sister Yamei?"
Still recognized... Hirota Masami sighed inwardly.
It was hard for even her to recognize her previous look... Was it because she had just seen it before?
Hirota Masami suppressed her thoughts and said, "Yes. You are Conan, right?"
"It's really you, Sister Masami!" Fengyuan said, "I thought I made a mistake! But... Sister Masami, you feel completely different after taking off your glasses."
"Yeah?"
"Yeah!" Fengyuan nodded, "Sister Masami and Sister Xiaolan felt almost the same before, but now..." Fengyuan showed a hesitant expression, like a child who didn't know how to describe it, "Now I feel a little older. oh!"
Masami Hirota was about to speak when she heard "Conan" continue: "That's right! Now she looks like a big sister in the workplace! Sister Masami, aren't you still in school?"
"Because mature makeup is popular in school," Masami Hirota bent down and looked at "Conan," "but it wasn't appropriate to meet the Mori detective like this, so I changed my look. Conan helped his sister keep the secret, Don’t tell Detective Mori, okay?”
Masami Hirota didn't want Detective Mori to know about this. She didn't want her identity to be suspected before she found Kenzo Hirota.
She looked like she was pleading with a small child.
And in fact…
Feng Yuan glanced into her eyes.
She was really pleading.
…
The next day, Uncle Maori began to look for Hirota Kenzo.
He first went to the taxi company where Kenzo Hirota worked to inquire about the situation, but found nothing, so he could only start a blanket search with photos.
However, although Uncle Maori is very experienced in finding people, it is obviously very difficult to find someone in such a big city with only a few clues.
However, Maplehara and Conan don't know about Uncle Mouri's hard work because they have to go to school today.
After school, Maplehara rarely declined the invitation from elementary school students to play football together.
If the person who refused was Conan, then Kojima Motota would probably carry Conan directly there.
But it was Maplehara who refused.
Although Maplehara is relatively quiet and never loses his temper, Kojima Genta finds it difficult to apply his arrogant attitude towards Conan to Maplehara.
So Feng Yuan left the school alone.
Thinking about how Maplehara seemed not feeling right after school yesterday, Conan explained to the worried Ayumi and others: "It's okay. He just hasn't been feeling well for the past two days. He just needs to rest."
Conan really thinks so.
…
Maplehara knew who Hirota Masami was, knew that she was in great danger, and wanted to try to save her.
There are many bad things about this world, but he wants to try to make it what he wants it to be.
Even though he is small, he cannot do everything.
After being separated from the boy detective team, Maplehara put on his own tracking glasses.
Just like last night, the light spots above kept moving, but not very fast. Miss Masami Hirota seems to be searching the whole city for Kenzo Hirota.
The same is true at this time.
Maplehara took one look and turned off the tracking glasses.
Everything about this thing is good, but the battery life is really poor.
Soon, Maplehara returned to Dr. Agasa's house. He still had some preparations to do before going to see Masami Hirota again.
Then...he saw the doctor standing at the door waiting for him.
"..."
After calling "Grandpa" on the phone last night, Fengyuan felt that something was not right about Dr. Ali.
That phone call was just to check if there was any noise in Hirota Masami's body to see if there was any eavesdropping device - the result was that there was not.
And he just didn't want the title "Doctor" to be heard by others.
He couldn't explain it this way, so he had to tell the doctor that it was a slip of the tongue.
But the doctor was even happier.
Not only did he get up early and make himself omelettes for breakfast - not fried this time, but he also sent himself out all the way...
It's not that Maplehara is against it...but it's just too weird.
Thinking that as long as we get along normally, the doctor's inexplicable "enthusiasm" will probably subside in a few days, Maplehara feels that he should forget it for now.
After greeting the doctor, Maplehara took his glasses to charge, and then waited while checking information.
When it got completely dark, the light spot representing Hirota Masami stayed where it had been the night before.
