Infinite Replacement

Chapter 298 Invitation Letter from the Dusk Pavilion

"Brother, are you there?"

When Jingyu wanted to take Xiaolan and Xiaowulang on what excuse to go somewhere, Xiaolan's voice came from the building.He walked out of Kogoro's office and asked Xiaolan, who was standing next to the door on the third floor and wearing an apron.

"Do I need to do anything?"

"Well, if my elder brother is not busy...I saw Mr. Postman enter our building from the upper floor. I want my elder brother to go down to see if there is any mail from our family. By the way, I have to take the morning newspaper too... ...Ah, I have to go back to the kitchen."

I don't know what the cooking is, Xiaolan ran back in one breath.

There are four small mailboxes hanging at the entrance on the first floor.Except for the cafe on the first floor, one is empty, and the other two are used as personal mails for Jingyu's three people, and mails from Kogoro detective office.

When Jingyu came to the first floor, he saw that the private mailbox had already been stuffed into the morning paper.After he took it out, he didn't find any mail in it.Then came the small mailbox of the detective office... Inside this, he saw three envelopes.One of them is actually a pure black shell with white text.

There is no name and address of the sender, and there is no postage stamp.

For a moment, Jingyu thought, would it be a provocative book delivered by the black organization?

After laughing for himself, he took them apart and walked up.

One of the three envelopes is a thank-you for Kogoro's resolution.The other two are commissions.One commissioned Kogoro to conduct an affair investigation, which was directly ignored by Jingyu.He knew that Kogoro would not take it unless he had no money and no other tasks.The other...that is, the letterhead in the black envelope was an unknown delegation made in the form of inviting Kogoro to go somewhere.

That is, this letter was accompanied by a cheque of 2 million yen, which should be a commission fee.

However, no specific commission content was stated.

However, Jingyu smiled inexplicably as soon as she saw the words "Twilight Hall" written on the back.

"Well, it's a good place to go here."

There is a row of small characters above the four characters of'Twilight Pavilion','Phantom of God's Abandoned Aberdeen', but he ignored it indifferently.

Later at breakfast time, Jingyu handed over the letter and cheque to Kogoro. The three of them quickly decided... Koran and Kogoro stayed at home to clean up and Jingyu will park in the nearby parking lot. Porsche panamera drove over.

To his surprise, Conan had already arrived.

He looked at Kogoro, who shrugged helplessly and said, "When I called, he was already out. And, Dr. Ali seemed to have something to go out today."

'Dr. Ali has something to go out' is an excuse that Conan said when he was persuaded by Kogoro when he arrived here.

Conan smiled gleefully on the surface like a naive child.In fact, what I was thinking about was what happened yesterday... He came so early that he wanted to ask him tentatively before Jingyu might go out.

"Since this is the case, let's go together." Jingyu gave Conan a profound look, opened the co-pilot's actions, and motioned for Xiaolan to sit in.

Kogoro and Conan sat in the back seat... In the first half of this "journey", Jingyu was driving.He chooses the path as he pleases, and occasionally looks at the rearview mirror outside the car to determine if anyone is following.At the speed of Porsche on the road, if it is not found at noon, then no one can catch up.

Of course, he has other, more obscure ways to determine whether there are followers behind.The reason for this is to show Conan... Conan watched Jingyu no less than thirty times in the three hours after entering the car.

Jingyu is to give him a signal to be a'pavement' for the conversation that may happen between the two.

After eating lunch, Jingyu exchanged with Kogoro.After going to bed for a morning, Kogoro drove for three hours, and then changed to Jingyu to drive.This time he drove until the sun turned west to the setting sun, and finally approached the place where there were only ten kilometers away from the destination... At the same time, it also meant that he had reached far enough away from Tokyo.

Xiaolan was sitting next to him, holding a map in his hand where he didn't know where Jingyu was found.

"Lan, the gas station in front is the last one. Would you like to take a rest there?" Jingyu asked her.

"Hey..." Xiaolan turned his head and glanced at him, unconsciously, his legs squeezed indistinctly.In the dimly lit car, there was a hint of red glow on her cheeks, "No, no, isn't it coming soon?"

"Same thing." Jingyu smiled as he saw through.

Xiaolan glanced backwards and saw that Xiaowulang and Conan were sleeping, so he handed his fist to Jingyu.

"hate."

Still so softly.

Who would have thought that Jingyu had temporarily lost control of the car under her little fist.The car came to a halt after a violent jolt...when Xiao Wulang and Conan woke up, Xiao Lan stared blankly at his hand. I thought, I'm powerless.

Jingyu saw her grievance and guilt in her eyes, and patted her hand comfortingly:

"It's none of your business, the tire burst..."

He got out of the car, but instead of looking at the left rear wheel with the flat tire, he glanced around.If he was right, when he just talked to Xiaolan and admired Xiaolan's embarrassing appearance, the afterglow of his eyes caught a blade-like thing flying to the side of the car.

Jingyu recalled a bit and judged the location where the tire was hit at that speed and his own reaction.He walked back five meters down the road and saw a playing card on the ground.

His actions clearly attracted the attention of Kogoro, Koran and Conan.

Originally complaining that he was unlucky, Xiao Wulang came to Jingyu with Xiaolan and Conan.

Looking at the card, "Is it really Kidd's guy?" Conan muttered.

For a moment, his voice was a little different from being cute, and his sneering expression also seemed mature to his apparent age.

The surroundings suddenly became quiet... Conan froze, looked up, and noticed that Jingyu, Xiaowulang, and Xiaolan were watching him.He yelled'Oops' in the bottom of his heart, and he smiled and shifted his eyes:

"Oh... Ola, didn't the letter say "The Phantom of God's Abandoned Child"? Uncle Kogoro must have known for a long time that it meant Kidd, right? Because it was Kidd's challenge, So I want to come here."

Xiaolan gave Xiaowulang an inquiring look.

"Uh..." Kogoro looked away embarrassingly.He naturally didn't see it, but he wouldn't admit it, "Well... almost." He said bravely.

Conan did not relax because of this... Jingyu was still staring at him.

This is what Jingyu rarely does!He specifically pointed out: "Even so, Conan is still amazing, even knowing so much without Kogoro telling him..."

He paused here, when Xiaolan and Xiaowulang looked back at Conan again, and there was cold sweat on Conan's head... before he smiled and continued:

"It seems that he followed the detective learning conducted by Kogoro, and progressed very smoothly."

The heart mentioned Conan in his throat, and quickly seized the opportunity, "Yes, yes, thanks to the teaching of Uncle Kogoro."

Kogoro drifted away.

Xiaolan knew that Conan was Kudo Shinichi... she was just curious that the sentence represented Kidd, and the expression actually meant that she wanted Kogoro to make a translation that she could understand.

Now, she looked at Jingyu, thinking that her brother would have discovered it, and found Conan to be Kudo Shinichi.

"Well, since Kidd has begun to appear, everyone should be careful. I will drive the car to the gas station, and we will change the tires there." Jingyu said while walking back to Porsche.

"Be careful when driving." Xiao Wulang asked: "Lan, you follow Jingyu's car and help him take care of it...I'll go to the gas station first."

"I'm going together too." Conan immediately raised his hand.

Kogoro thought, with his little child, he could not help here, so he agreed.He did not know that Conan believed that Kidd would not break the wheel of the car for no reason. It must be a plan... Kidd might want them all to enter the gas station.

Only after he ran out, he glanced back at Jingyu, who was slowly driving the car forward.

'Even the playing cards that can cut the wheels at a rate of fire can be seen. His eyesight is really terrible... should I say that he is the holder of the 400-game winning streak?I don't know if Kidd will retreat after being found.'
