Chapter 9 Another Child

"Doctor, who is this child?" Xiaolan couldn't help asking, looking at Conan with a cute look in her arms.

"Ah, he," the doctor replied with a calm expression, "He is the child of my relative's family. By the way, can you ask you to keep this child in your house for a while? The child's parents were hospitalized, so I asked me, but I am a bachelor after all!"

"Uh, foster care..." Xiaolan looked at the doctor speechlessly, then looked down at Conan in her arms, "That's fine, but I want to tell my father."

"Fosure..." Shinichi, no, Conan rolled his eyes, then realized, and couldn't help but be shocked, "Doctor! What are you doing?"

"Shinichi," the doctor whispered in Conan's ear, "Aren't you going to investigate the man in black organization? Xiaolan's father is a detective!"

"Ha...he..." Conan thought of the uncle who was drunk every day, probably it was useless! However, maybe there might be information from those guys. Conan thought to himself.

"Okay, that's the decision! Thank you so much." The doctor made the final decision, regardless of Conan's appearance of fangs and claws, pushed him to Xiaolan.

Really, Doctor Conan couldn't help but sigh that he met the wrong person.

"Now, Conan," Xiaolan asked suddenly while holding Conan's hand on the way to the office.

"Ah, what's the matter?" Conan was stunned for a moment, really not used to the name. Conan thought depressedly.

"Do you have someone you like?" Xiaolan asked as she walked, "I mean, do you have girls you like in school?"

"Uh...no, no!" Conan blushed.

"No, I have someone I like very much!" Xiaolan said with a smile.

After hearing this, Conan smiled wickedly, "It's not the brother named Shinichi you just looked for?"

Xiaolan glanced at Conan in surprise, "That's right." She answered seriously.

"Hey!" Conan looked at her in surprise.

"Shinichi, I've been very naughty since I was a child." Xiaolan said to herself. "Always look confident and thinks that she is a reasoning expert. Every time, it makes Charlotte and me have a headache. However, if there is something, he will be full of courage to do it! I really like Shinichi very much!" But I didn't notice that Conan's face was red and almost exploded.

When she arrived downstairs of the office, Xiaolan bent down and said to Conan: "This is my home, it seems like there are more cute brothers. You can tell Conan anything!"

"Lan..." Conan stared at her in a daze.

"Come on, I'll introduce you to your father." After Xiaolan said this, she didn't see Conan lowering her head at all.

"That, Lan..." Conan lowered his head, unable to see his expression clearly, "Actually, that...I, I am..."

"Come here, come here!" Conan, who was about to tell the truth to Xiaolan, was interrupted by a voice, but Xiaolan's father, Kogoro Mori, ran down from the upstairs in a formal outfit, but fell heavily to the ground and hurriedly flashed to the side with Conan.

"Haha, I finally got a job in half a year!" Kogoro shouted with excitement, completely ignoring that he had just rolled down the stairs. "The daughter of a rich family has been kidnapped. It is said that the kidnapper is a man in black!"

"Men in black?!" Conan's sensitive nerves were immediately touched, and the images of the two men in black who were giving him medicine flashed in his mind.

"Taxi!" Kogoro Mori waved his hand and called a taxi, and Conan followed him up.

"Hey, Conan!" Xiaolan had no choice but to run over.

...

In the dark and gorgeous room, a figure sat quietly in the armchair, looking at the dark night outside the window.

"So, those things are destroyed?" A voice said slowly, the figure sitting in the armchair.

“Yes, boss.”

At the feet of the figure, a man in black was kneeling on one knee, his body completely hidden in the darkness, and he could only hear the silent voice.

"It is said that the monster thief Feng Ming suddenly appeared, and the person he brought was no match for, but the house was burned by him."

"The monster thief Feng Ming..." The figure tapped the armrest of the seat with his fingers, "Where did he burn him to death in the fire together?"

"This matter has not been investigated clearly, because the fire was too fierce and was extinguished an hour ago." The man in black replied, "However, according to the data reports of the police, there are only sixteen bodies inside."

"Ha, it seems that I have escaped." The figure paused when he knocked on the handrail, "But compared to the elusive monster thief Feng Ming's skills, I care more about the purpose of his appearance there."

"This, I haven't found out yet." The man in black changed for the first time, with a slight trembling.

"Miyamoto..." The figure ignored his subordinates' fear and murmured to himself.

――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

Conan was running. To be precise, he rode the big dog running.

"What Jingzi saw was not a chimney at all!" A confident smile appeared on Conan's tender face again.

"Some things sound the same, and they look the same. Have you ever heard of an ancient Chinese poem? "Looking from a mountain, looking at it from a mountain, with different heights and heights." That's what it means." Charlotte's words kept echoing in his mind, and Conan couldn't help but smile.

"Thank you, old friend."

"The so-called chimney in Jingzi looks like it is just a shadow on the side of the building." Conan calculated in his mind, "and the school with warehouses that can see the shadow on the side of the building is-"

“Erqiao Middle School!”

In the dark warehouse, the man holding a knife was grinning.

"The business is done, and you are useless." The man sneered and walked towards the little girl with a look of fear, pulling out a sharp knife.

"Stop!" A voice came from the door.

"Who! Who is there?" the man picked up the knife and rushed towards the door.

"Here!" A voice came from below.

The man bowed his head and was rushed up by the roaring big dog.

"Don't worry, you're fine." Conan walked in and untied the rope on the girl's body.

"Who are you?" the girl asked softly with tears in her eyes.

"Kudo Shinichi, no," Conan said slowly with a confident smile:

"Conan Edogawa is a detective."

The big dog whined and was knocked to the ground by the man, and ran out of the warehouse with his tail stomped. Seeing this scene, Conan raised his leg and kicked the man in the face.

The man sneered, grabbed the kicked leg and threw Conan out.

"Damn it!" Conan got up and thought to himself, "After getting smaller, I didn't even have the strength!" Suddenly seeing the football at his feet, Conan had an idea and raised his leg and kicked it over.

The man grabbed the flying football and sneered and picked up the baseball bat and knocked Conan out.

"Um!" Conan exclaimed in pain, "Oh no, even the power to play football has been lost!" Conan thought to himself, "My body is so small, even if I find a prisoner, I will not have the strength to arrest them!"

"The game is over." The man lifted the knife in his hand and smiled coldly, "I want your life!"

"Now... I'm dead." Looking at the cut knife, Conan closed his eyes unwillingly.

Seeing the crisis, Xiaolan suddenly broke into the door and knocked the man to the ground with Karate.

Kogoro Mouri followed him and ran in panting, looking at the prisoner lying on the ground, kicked him hard several times. "Damn it, is it you?" Then he laughed, "This prisoner was arrested by my detective Kogoro Mouri!"

"...I really have a trick!" Conan looked at Kogoro helplessly.

After dealing with this case, Conan said to Xiaolan as if he had remembered something: "Yes, Sister Lan."

"What's the matter, Conan?" Xiaolan asked.

"I suddenly thought that I would go to the doctor's house to clean up my things, so I won't live in the office tonight. Will I go there tomorrow?" Conan looked up at Xiaolan's cuteness.

"Oh, there's no problem. Remember to move here tomorrow." Xiaolan agreed without thinking much.

Agasa's house.

"Hey, I said Shinichi, why are you back?" The doctor looked at Shinichi who returned with a strange look.

"I want to go to Charlotte's house to find him," Conan walked in and turned on the TV. "But that guy is not here. I don't think it's very convenient to call the office, so I'd just come to your place for a night first. By the way, ask about his situation."

"Oh, that's right." The doctor replied casually.

"And I have a lot of things to ask this guy. It seems like I know a lot about that organization, but why are you doing something mysterious..."

Conan stopped and stared at the turned on TV. The doctor looked at his expression and got up and walked to the TV.

"At around 8 o'clock tonight, a fire suddenly broke out in the old house of Dr. Miyamoto in the suburbs. The fire was severe and burned for nearly an hour. After the fire was extinguished, 16 bodies of people were found. The relevant departments are currently investigating..."

"Charlot! Oops!" Conan jumped up suddenly, his warm blue eyes filled with anger.

"It must be, it must be those guys!" Conan looked at the photo of the corpse on the screen, "It was all in black...it must be..."

"What should I do now?" the doctor asked with a serious expression.

"I can't care so much!" Conan turned around and rushed out of the door, "I can't leave... I don't care about that guy!"

"Wait..." The doctor was about to dissuade him, but suddenly he heard the sound of glass breaking on the second floor!

Conan looked at the doctor, and couldn't help but feel worried.

"Did those men in black find this place so soon?" Conan thought to himself, and picked up something as a weapon.

When the two of them walked to the second floor with caution, they were surprised to find such a scene.

A man in black fell beside the window, wrapped in a broken black cloak, covered with burnt marks. However, the golden pattern still visible still showed his master's extraordinary identity. An equally damaged black top hat was buckled on the figure's head, and the golden mask on his face had been smoked black. The black shadow was still holding a long black knife tightly in his hand. But the most important point is that the person wearing this outfit was a child!

Seeing that the figure had fallen out of coma, Conan and the doctor walked forward and took off the mask covering their face.

"-Charlotte!" Conan exclaimed.
