The next day, in the evening, Dr. Ali’s house

"Doctor, what's wrong with calling me over so late?"

"Shinichi, it's like this..."

Balabala, Jiliguala

As the doctor's voice stopped, Conan's expression gradually became serious.

"You said someone is investigating us?"

"What did Okino say? But you don't have to worry. He seemed to mean that those people were investigating him."

"Investigating Okino?" Conan paused, then murmured in confusion, "It's strange, why are you investigating Okino? Is there anything to investigate about that guy?"

"Um, haha, I don't know about this." The doctor scratched his head, and the smile on his face disappeared in the next second, and said seriously, "I said Shinichi, could it be... those guys? Their purpose

In fact, it is not an investigation of Okino, but an investigation..."

Hearing this, Conan's expression was a little heavy, "I don't think so. If it was the organization's method, I'm afraid they would have taken action long ago. It couldn't be a simple investigation."

Having said that, Conan's expression became more and more serious.

It is not good news to suddenly learn that he is likely to be under surveillance and investigation. Although the person under investigation now is Okino, there is no guarantee that he and Haibara will be traced soon.

Things are getting difficult to handle!

So, after a few minutes

"Doctor, did Okino say anything else?"

"Well, by the way, he also said that Tokyo is not very peaceful recently, so he asked you to pay more attention. If possible, try to go out as little as possible."

"Isn't it very peaceful?" From the doctor's words, Okino heard a hint of a storm coming.

"It seems that I need to confirm this matter with Okino." After thinking about it, Conan always felt uneasy in his heart. Could it be that someone was really targeting him and Haiyuan.

Now we are just rushing into the wild, maybe it will be their turn soon.

At this time, the doctor slapped his head, suddenly remembered something, and said hurriedly: "By the way, Shinichi, I have to go on a long trip in the next two days, and it will take about a month."

"One month? So long!" Conan was curious, "Doctor, what are you going to do?"

The doctor said cautiously, "Hey, this is a big project. You will know when it is completed. It will definitely surprise you!"

"Tch, if you don't say it, don't say it."

The doctor's outing was just a small incident, and Conan didn't take it to heart. What concerned him most now was Okino's investigation.

Saturday

On this day, Okino, who was invited by Conan, came to the Mori Detective Agency and said, "I haven't eaten Chinese food in a long time, so I'm hungry." Okino saw through this obvious excuse at the beginning, but he also

I didn’t say anything because Xiaolan and Uncle were also greedy.

It just so happened that everyone hadn't had a good meal together for a long time since the meal a few months ago. It was also at that time that Okino almost became Aunt Eiri's son.

Emmmm, when thinking about what happened that day, Okino also looked innocent.

noon

"By the way, Xiaolan, don't you need to invite Aunt Yingli this time?"

"I really want to invite my mother, but...she seems to have a case to deal with today." Xiaolan was very sad, but the uncle was relieved.

"There is a case. It seems that the lawyer profession is not easy to do."

"That is to say, I haven't even seen my mother at all." A trace of sadness flashed in Xiaolan's eyes, but she quickly pointed the finger at Mouri Kogoro.

"It's all dad's fault that mom left."

Poof!

The uncle who was drinking beer squirted out a mouthful of turbid liquid, covering the whole table.

"Ahem, Xiaolan, you'd better go buy groceries quickly, I'm going to starve to death." The uncle yelled.

"Humph, it's all dad's fault."

The uncle didn't dare to be angry or speak out, so he drank beer and pretended to be innocent.

Seeing that something was wrong in the atmosphere, Okino hurriedly stepped forward to smooth things over, "Okay, Xiaolan, I think it's better to do this. How about we go see Aunt Yingli after dinner."

"Hey~ This is a good idea." Xiaolan's eyes lit up and she immediately clapped her hands and decided, "That's it, let's finish the meal quickly and then go to mom's place together."

"Dad! (expression: squinting eyes, holding kitchen knife)"

"No, I won't go, I have something to do in the afternoon!" The uncle seemed to have sweat running down his forehead.

"Hmm! (nasal)"

The uncle shook his head, refusing to let go, and then 'explained' to Xiaolan in a serious tone.

"Xiaolan, I have something to do tonight, so stop making trouble."

"Really?" Xiaolan didn't believe her father's words at all.

"Really, really! (expression: nodding wildly)"

"Okay Xiaolan, since uncle doesn't want to go, let's forget it."

"Humph, let's forget it this time." Xiaolan's attitude softened, and luckily she let her uncle go.

"Come on Conan, let's go shopping together."

"Okay~~"

Outside, Xiaolan walked happily in front, while Okino and Conan also walked quietly behind.

"Tell me, what's the matter with calling me here suddenly? You used such a poor excuse. Maybe Xiaolan didn't notice."

In the past, Conan would definitely have said a few words, but today...

"Okino, I heard Dr. Agasa say that you are under investigation?"

"Well, maybe." Okino's tone was a little perfunctory, and Conan frowned.

"What's the meaning?"

When it came to business, Okino showed a rare serious expression, "I also heard about this from a friend of mine. I don't know the specific details. After all, I don't know where to start investigating this kind of thing."

From what Okino said, it seems that this is most likely true.

"Is he from the organization?"

"Probably not, this is not their style."

"It's the same as my guess." Conan nodded, "But having said that, you said before that Tokyo won't be too quiet recently. Did something happen?"

"Not yet, but it will be hard to say in the future."

"In the future? You really know something." Although Conan really wanted to know what happened, with Okino's personality, since he didn't say it before, the possibility of saying it now is not very high.

However, Conan still asked without giving up. The result he got was naturally 'I don't know'.

"By the way, when you go back, remember to tell Huiyuan that she should go out less often recently and ask for a temporary leave from work."

"Huh? I understand." Conan agreed, but he was thinking and analyzing the meaning of Okino's words.
