Chapter 826: The Journey of Sherlock Holmes
"yes?"
In the evening, after playing baseball with Xiao Ai, Gao Cheng ran into Chiba by accident on his way home, as if he came to the office specifically to look for him.
"No success?"
"Yeah, she was dumped as expected, she didn't go at all, she said that there was a sudden emergency, and she seemed to be getting married..."
Qianye was a little melancholy, and she could accept it all the way after being hit, but she was not ashamed when facing Gao Cheng, after all, her good friend worked so hard to help him.
"It's all my own fault."
"How can you say that?" Gao Cheng pressed Qianye's shoulder and encouraged, "This kind of thing is also very normal, maybe you are not suitable."
"It should be said," Xiao Ai next to him suddenly raised her eyebrows and interjected, "It's not good for a toad to want to eat swan meat."
"Hey..."
Chiba was poked to the bottom of her heart, and couldn't help laughing dryly.
There is no need to be so direct, right?
The children of the Chenghu family are really difficult to deal with, who said they have a good personality?
"Anyway, keep this matter a secret for me," Chiba avoided the demonic Xiao Ai, turned to Gao Cheng and asked, "It will be troublesome if you let Yumi know."
Gao Cheng thought of the gossiping and big-mouthed traffic class Yumi, nodded and said: "No problem, but Chiba, don't just give up so easily, you probably haven't met that girl yet, right?"
"Not yet..."
"Then there is still hope, maybe they want to test you."
"Really?" Chiba's eyes lit up again.
"How do you know if you don't try?"
Gao Cheng quietly watched Qianye leave with great enthusiasm again, paused for a while, then looked down at Xiao Ai and said, "There's no need to hit him, right? Didn't you still say that it's bad to miss it yesterday?"
"I didn't say that he would definitely succeed." Xiao Ai covered her mouth and yawned sleepily, "It's cruel for you to give him hope like this."
"I just think that since I'm a childhood sweetheart, I hope it should be pretty big."
Gao Cheng scratched his hair.
It should be like this, that's right, it seems that there are very few childhood sweethearts here who miss it, and the other party still calls after 13 years, which means there is still hope...
At least there is nothing wrong with that.
...
If you don't worry about life, private detective is still a pretty good job, which can not only enjoy life leisurely but also be very challenging.
After a period of busy work, Gao Chenggong is doing well. The only thing that bothers me is the New York detective branch. Recently, the detectives in the firm have been prosecuted by the police, and the cases they usually receive are not very satisfying. Anyway, He hasn't lost money yet, otherwise Gao Chengcheng would like to go to New York himself.
His reputation as a famous Japanese detective is still not very popular in the United States...
"what?"
On the third floor of Kido Detective Agency, when Gao Cheng and Xiao Ai were still reviewing the branch information, Conan suddenly called.
"There is a rich woman who wants to invite you to London to play, and reimburse the travel expenses?!"
"Yeah, although my father took me abroad several times, I haven't been to London yet," Conan said happily, smiling, "It happens to be a holiday next week. Uncle and Xiaolan also want to go."
"Of course,
free. "Gao Cheng frowned.
Free is more attractive to the neighbor's house than anything else, let alone a trip to London, England, he has never been there when he grows up...
"I've thought about it," Conan couldn't help but fell into longing, and he didn't even hear what Gao Cheng said, and said happily, "I'm going to Baker Street first, and then to Hyde Park where Holmes and Watson took a walk, and Holmes went out to investigate The British Museum that I often pass by...
"If I have time, I would also like to go to the story stage of "The Hound of the Baskervilles", Dartmoor National Park, and..."
"I'm sorry," Gao Cheng interrupted with downcast eyes, "I didn't mean to throw cold water on you, you can't go at all, right?"
"Eh?"
"It's a passport. You are Conan now, a person who does not actually exist."
"That's what you said," Conan said with all his anger poured down, "that's why I called you, that yawning girl in your family who always has fierce eyes, help me steal a few tablets of deodorant from her." Isn't the medicine all right?"
"Yawn girl?"
Gao Cheng secretly glanced at Xiao Ai who was on the verge of eruption, shook his head repeatedly and said: "You should give up, it is better to ask Dr. A Li for help than this..."
"I did look for it," Conan said helplessly, "but he said that forging a passport is a crime, and he is now in London with Fusha, so I have to ask you."
"Let me ask her for you," Gao Cheng and the stern Xiao Ai looked at each other, "It's best to prepare an apology or something..."
Hanging up the phone, Gao Cheng turned his head to Xiao Ai.
"what to do?"
...
"Om—!"
On the day when the consecutive holidays began, Gao Cheng took Conan, who had recovered into Kudo Shinichi's body, on the plane from Tokyo to London, England early in the morning, and asked the staff at the airport to take a look.
However, the two did not go with Xiaolan, but separated on the pretext of urgent matters, saying they were taking the next flight, but they were actually taking the economy class of the same flight as Xiaolan.
"Xiaolan and the others are in first class..."
"Because I brought you one more, it's only enough to buy two economy class tickets," Kudo Shinichi found a seat and sat down, "And if we are also in first class, we will be exposed immediately."
"Who the hell begged me to come with you?" Gao Cheng snorted, "You'd better keep a low profile, if you attract too much attention..."
"It's pretty remarkable what we're doing now."
Kudo Shinichi looked at Gao Cheng helplessly, and put on a hat and sunglasses to disguise himself more tightly.
"But Xiaolan and the others probably won't come here, the trouble is after arriving at the airport..."
"That's right." Gao Cheng also put on his hat.
Xiao Ai still gave this guy two experimental antidotes. As long as he does not take them continuously, the time limit is 24 hours. It only takes half a day from Tokyo to London, which is more than enough. The only problem is that he needs to transform back into Conan before reuniting with Xiaolan. Calculate the time.
It's okay if it exceeds, but Xiao Ran has to wait a little longer. If there is not enough time, he can only continue to take the medicine, so that he will not be able to return.
Although Xiao Ai gave him a few more pills in private without telling this guy, just in case, because this guy always likes to mess around...
"But having said that," Kudo Shinichi asked Gao Cheng, who was distracted, "if you're not here, will Xiao Ai live outside again?"
"It seems to be staying at home, the office is not a dangerous place."
"Didn't you all go to Yuanzi's house before?"
"I don't know, that's what she said... There shouldn't be any problem, right?"
Gao Cheng thought that he would follow Yuanzi to London, but in the end, Yuanzi went to the office to accompany Xiao Ai.
Hope it's ok.
"By the way, who is that rich woman? Just like this, I invite you to go to London..."
"I said I wanted to hear Uncle Kogoro, who is a famous Japanese detective, tell a story, because she is a fan of reasoning, and we made an appointment to meet at the hotel at night," Kudo Shinichi suppressed his expectations for London and turned to the drowsy Gao Cheng asked, "Strange, don't you expect it? London is where Holmes usually lives..."
"I'm not a fan of Sherlock Holmes." Gao Cheng glanced at him, leaned back in his chair and said, "Besides, Sherlock Holmes is a fictional character in the movie. What can I see in London?"
"I said Kido, you're really boring." Kudo Shinichi's mouth twitched.
Even if you just look at London as the stage in the movie, and see Sherlock Holmes culture, most detectives should be excited, right?
