Chapter 1024: 1024【No longer a detective! 】Ask for

Chapter 1024 1024 [No longer a detective! 】Please give me a monthly ticketヾ(●`●)~

Jiang Xia remembered the plan of "asking the police for clues" that she had just discussed, and quickly followed him out.

However, as soon as he squeezed through the chaotic crowd of onlookers and before he could catch up with the sword-wielding police officer, someone next to him suddenly grabbed his hand.

When he turned around, he saw Sakura Sakura pulling him to the classroom: "It's class time, go to class first, and leave the rest to the police - we are students after all, and our main job is to study."

   …”

 Kudo Shinichi was also stopped by her.

 He glanced at Jiang Xia, who was also being held back, and then turned to look at Hattori Heiji.

Unexpectedly, Hattori Heiji did not chase the police, but stood there in a daze, with his head lowered and not knowing what he was thinking.

"...Hattori?" Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko also realized something was wrong and pushed him.

Hattori Heiji came to his senses, responded, and walked out of the classroom.

 …

 Next, the copy really taught them a lesson for a day.

 Fortunately, under Jiang Xia's increasingly impatient gaze, time moved forward rapidly.

 School time is finally here.

 Kudo Shinichi stretched out against the back of his chair and looked at the NPC students around him who were clearing their desks, feeling quite emotional.

He turned around from the front row and whispered to Jiang Xia in the back seat: "It's been a long time since I experienced a normal high school life, and it's still as comfortable as it is now. Speaking of which, you obviously haven't gotten younger, but you don't usually go to class well. You have to follow that Suspicious boss as detective…”

As he spoke, Kudo Shin couldn't help but feel a bit of envy and condemnation in his eyes, "You don't cherish your youth!"

 Jiangxia: “…”

A picture of his parents preaching to his students, saying, "You have great years but you don't work hard!" suddenly flashed through his mind. With a twitch in the corner of his eye, he turned to Mao Lilan, who was two desks away: "Conan..."

"!" Kudo Shin stood up quickly and slapped the table righteously. The sound overwhelmed Jiang Xia's voice, "We should go investigate the case!"

"...Oh, okay." Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko were startled by his excessive move.

After subconsciously answering, Mao Lilan thought of something and looked at Jiang Xia: "What did you just say? What happened to Conan?"

   …”

 Kudo Shinichi broke into cold sweat. His eyes drifted and landed on his desk: He didn't know if this desk, turned sideways, could withstand Xiaolan's angry blow after being surprised...

 Fortunately, the neighbor did not really sell him.

Jiang Xia cleared her throat and talked about other things: "Conan must like this kind of game very much. Unfortunately, it is too dangerous to gamble with life, and it is not up to us to decide who to invite to play. Otherwise, we really want him to come in and watch." look."

Mao Lilan wilted a little when he heard this heavy topic: "Yes."

She thought of the "Ms. Miyano" whom she met for the first time but felt inexplicably familiar to her, and then thought of her hanging body. She lowered her head and sighed: "Fortunately, it's just a game."...There is still a chance of resurrection.

 …

The four of them walked out of the classroom in a sigh, suddenly feeling that something was missing.

Jiang Xia turned around and glanced at the crowded corridor: "...Where is Hattori?"

"I remember that during class, his seat was behind me on the left." Suzuki Sonoko said, taking two steps back and looking in from the door.

 Sure enough, I saw Hattori Heiji next to the rear window.

Seeing that Hattori Heiji was still sitting in his original position, Suzuki Sonoko waved to him and urged: "Hey! Detective Kansai, why are you dazed? It's time to go investigate the case!"

The voice echoed in the classroom. Hattori Heiji looked down at the difficult problems in the exercise book, turning the pen with one hand without raising his head, looking disdainful. "?" Suzuki Sonoko thought he didn't hear it, so she simply walked into the classroom.

Mao Lilan saw her leaving and followed her subconsciously.

Jiang Xia glanced at the strange Hattori Heiji across half the classroom, and vaguely understood something.

At this time, Kudo Shinichi suddenly patted him and looked out the window: "Oh no, the police are closing in!"

Jiang Xia was startled, then turned her head and looked over. Through the corridor window, she could see some police officers retreating one after another.

 — Previously, the road signs on the street only included “Residential Area” and “School”, and did not include the police station. I don’t know if the location is not open yet, or if there is no such place at all.

  In any case, stopping people to ask about the situation is the safest way now. Maybe it can also open police-related addresses.

Kudo Shinichi turned around and rushed out of the corridor.

Jiang Xia glanced at the classroom, thought for a moment, and said to the two girls who noticed the movement: "Gather in the activity room later."

 Then he also followed.

 …

 “What’s wrong with you?”

Suzuki Sonoko and Mao Lilan stood in the classroom, looking down at Hattori Heiji who was concentrating on solving the problem. They were a little confused: "Why do you have to stay in the classroom? There are no clues here."

 Hattori Heiji frowned: "Don't disturb my study."

“…?” Suzuki Sonoko was shocked, “What kind of study? What’s important now is solving the case!”

  "Crack the case?" Hattori Heiji snorted coldly, "There is no future in being a detective!"

As he spoke, he wanted to raise his hand to push up the gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose... But unfortunately, he was not short-sighted, and of course he didn't wear glasses.

 In the end, he had no choice but to turn his hand away and straighten his collar.

 Mao Lilan: “…”

 Suzuki Sonoko: “…”

The two people couldn't help but clenched their fists, wanting to hit the broken detective's head to see if they could physically restart it. But then I thought about it. After all, we were teammates, so I had to endure it with difficulty.

"Could it be that he became like this because of his previous reasoning?" Mao Lilan thought of something and muttered in a low voice: "I remember that in some games, in order to limit unlimited trial and error, there will be penalties for guessing wrong - maybe Hattori will also lose it. Fell into this trap.”

“…What should I do? Is there any hope?”

Suzuki Sonoko was stunned. The truth was confusing, and now she was missing a teammate. She looked around and said, "Why don't you ask Jiang Xia? He plays a lot of games, maybe he can think of a way..."

Mao Lilan nodded hesitantly: "I vaguely heard Jiang Xia say 'activity room' just now. Maybe there is an emergency. Let's meet in the activity room later - let's go see if he is back."

Hattori Heiji was determined not to go with them, deciding that there was no future for him as a detective.

Looking at the schoolbag he had packed, the two girls were worried that Hattori Heiji would slip away without knowing where he left, and thus changed from "maybe saved" to "completely dogged".

“…I’ll stay and watch him. It’s just after school, there are still many people in the school, and it’s not dark, so it’s not dangerous.”

Suzuki Sonoko took a look at Mao Lilan's legs. With such long legs, she must be able to run very fast. She gritted her teeth and said, "Xiaolan, go to the activity room and take a look. If Jiang Xia and the others are here, bring them back immediately. If not, , just...be back soon!"

The two sides are not far apart. It only takes two or three minutes to turn back, so it’s not a big problem. Moreover, Hattori Heiji seemed to be able to communicate, and could barely be considered a half-teammate, so he could help a little bit.

Mao Lilan thought for a while and nodded seriously: "I'll be here soon!"

 She ran quickly to the activity room.
