Chapter 1335 Hiroki Returns

"Mr. Hawkins, how are you lately?" Mouri Kogoro stood up and asked caringly.

"Hey, it's not much different from before. I receive new threatening letters every day. Speaking of which..." Rick Hawkins looked at Kogoro Mouri and said with a smile, "Today seems to be the appointment Mr. Mouri and I made. Deadline, right? Have you found any clues about the person who sent me the threatening letter?”

"Of course!" Mouri Kogoro assured, patting his chest, "Sit down and listen to me tell you slowly."

Mao Lilan and Conan looked at each other helplessly, wondering whether they should stop their father's unreliable reasoning.

And Conan already has the anesthesia needle in his hand. As long as there is a slight sign of something wrong with Kogoro Maori's reasoning, the anesthesia needle can be fired immediately, and he, the real detective, will replace his uncle.

Moreover... Conan is also looking forward to Rick Hawkins' expression after hearing his reasoning.

Rick Hawkins didn't know that everything about him had been discovered by Conan. He happily said to Kogoro Mori: "Tell me quickly. I can't wait to know who that person is."

"Ahem." Mouri Kogoro cleared his throat reservedly, "Actually, that person is far away and right in front of you. He is actually your ex-girlfriend..."

Rick Hawkins showed a less obvious complacency on his face, but the next words of Mouri Kogoro made it difficult for him to maintain a calm expression.

"Your ex-girlfriend's current boyfriend, I remember he is a violent alcoholic." Mouri Kogoro said inscrutably, "This kind of person will definitely be jealous of his girlfriend's excellent ex-boyfriend, so he will send you a mail." That kind of threatening email.”

Rick Hawkins didn't seem to know what to say for a moment.

Mouri Kogoro asked expectantly: "How is it? Is my reasoning very reliable?"

Rick Hawkins: "..."

Under Uncle Maori's expectant gaze, Rick Hawkins was helpless: "Uh..."

"how is it going?"

Rick Hawkins wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

Conan sighed helplessly, knowing it was time for him to take action.

Conan made an excuse to go to the bathroom, jumped down from the booth, and sneaked behind the uncle.

However, before Conan could press the switch of the anesthesia watch, his cell phone suddenly rang.

Conan's expression changed drastically and he quickly covered his pockets. However, the loudness of the voice still attracted the attention of Mouri Kogoro and the others.

"Why are you here, Conan?" Mouri Kogoro frowned, "Didn't you go to the bathroom?"

"Uh..." Conan said awkwardly, "I dropped my glasses on the ground when I walked here. I'm going to the bathroom now."

After that, he ran away quickly.

Really, how could anyone call him at this time, and it was Kudo Shinichi’s cell phone!

In the bathroom, Conan turned on his phone and saw the missed call on it - Kudo Yusaku.

Dad?

With doubts, Conan dialed back the phone.

Soon the call was picked up by Kudo Yusaku.

"Moximoxi?" Conan asked, expressing his confusion, "Dad, why did you call me suddenly? It should still be night in Japan, right?"

"I heard that Mr. Mori received a commission. Counting the time, you should have solved the mystery, right?"

Although Conan was surprised by his father's well-informed knowledge, he was still happy to share his reasoning process with him, just like when he was a child: "Yeah, I found out that Rick Hawkins had a secret deal with the CIA. He bribed the CIA. Officials used it to gain convenience in certain restricted industries. However, this behavior also allowed him to know many secrets that he was not supposed to know, and also caused him to be killed. The threatening letters he received were from those who were related to The CIA officials he cooperated with warned him to quit these sensitive industries, but Rick Hawkins was not willing to just give up the bread he had obtained. He was unwilling to quit, so those people would give him appropriate warnings."

When Conan said these words, Kudo Yusaku has always played the role of a loyal listener.

"What's wrong? Is my reasoning incorrect?" Conan couldn't help but asked strangely when his father didn't speak.

"No, your reasoning is very good." Kudo Yusaku said with a faint smile, "But if I were you, I would let these reasonings rot in my heart."

Conan: "???"

"If there's nothing else, I'll hang up first."

Having said that, Kudo Yusaku coldly hung up the call with his son, leaving Conan alone and looking at himself in the mirror.

What the hell? Wasn't the call from dad?

And... let these reasonings rot in your heart...

Returning to the booth, Conan's expression became a little strange. Mao Lilan noticed it keenly, so he asked: "Conan, what's wrong with you?"

"Ah." Conan came to his senses and said with a smile, "Maybe the bathroom is too hot, I'm a little dizzy."

Rick Hawkins didn't pay attention to him. He was talking to Mouri Kogoro: "No matter what, I still want to thank you for this matter. Please come to the United States to help me."

"Oh, this is what I should do."

"So." Rick Hawkins took out an envelope from his briefcase and handed it to Mouri Kogoro, "This is the entrustment fee that was agreed upon before. The money for my round-trip air ticket is also included in it. Please be gentle. "

As soon as Mouri Kogoro saw the thickness of the envelope, he knew that there was definitely a lot of money inside. When he opened it and saw the thick US dollars inside, his eyes became even more cooperative.

"Oh, I'm so sorry. We didn't do anything to help, yet we still need to take so much commission money from you." Having said that, Mouri Kogoro put away the envelope without any pause.

Rick Hawkins stood up and said goodbye to them: "The company still has something to do, so I will leave first. If you have the opportunity to come to the United States again in the future, you must tell me and let me be your guide."

"Okay, okay, then it's settled!"

Until Rick Hawkins left, Conan did not use the anesthetic needle.

He finally listened to his father's persuasion, although he didn't know why Kudo Yu called him to remind him.

Could it be...that someone is already doubting his identity?

After Rick Hawkins left the cafe, he went straight into a commercial vehicle.

In the car, he made a phone call that would have made Conan look shocked if he were there: "I've already given him the commission fee, Rum."

"How's it going?" Rum's voice came from the receiver.

"He is indeed a waste. I don't see any qualities that fit a 'famous detective', and I don't know how those guys in Japan can hold such a waste in such high regard."

A sneer appeared at the corner of Rum's mouth: "Of course there is a reason why they admire Moori Kogoro, and you should not underestimate him because of this."

Rick Hawkins quickly said: "Yes. Did Kogoro Mouri make this appearance on purpose to show us?"

"Don't think too much, he can't affect our plan. We can even use this famous detective to promote the Noah's Ark plan."

This was originally the purpose of the organization.

Lure Kogoro Mouri to the United States with a seemingly ordinary commission, and then let him perform under their noses. Rum was really curious about what was special about this man who had contact with Kudo Yusaku, mezcal, bourbon, and even Belmode and Gin.

But now it seems that Rum is really disappointed.

Mouri Kogoro is just an ordinary and even slightly incompetent detective. His reputation should have been brought about by the kid next to him named Edogawa Conan.

It's a pity that I didn't get to see the scene where Kudo Shinichi reasoned for Mouri Kogoro.

…

A message popped up from the phone's message bar.

James stared at the words with dark eyes.

"Mr. Black." Ariane Swann walked up to him and asked, "Should I continue with my previous plan?"

James put away his cell phone as usual and said to Ariane: "This is something you should decide. Do you want to continue to seek revenge from Asano Nobushige? After he has already warned you."

"Hmph." Ariane looked gloomy, "Is his warning to me just to hurt the people around me?"

James said nothing.

Ariane clenched his fists and his eyes were blazing: "It seems that those people from the Department of Homeland Security are useless. They can't even convict someone with solid evidence. They are incompetent, so I can only do it myself."

Now that the matter has come to this, even if he had been a little hesitant about seeking revenge from Mescal before, he has now put all this weakness and cowardice behind him.

No matter how similar Mezcal is to his sister, they are not the same person after all. It doesn't matter even if his sister doesn't agree with his actions, he will never let the person who killed his sister live arrogantly in this world!

"What are you going to do?"

Contrary to Ariane's expectation, James Blake took the initiative to ask about his plans. In the past he had always helped him, with little involvement in the exact plans.

Ariane thought about it seriously and finally said: "Intelligence agencies from various countries have gathered at JUKE. Asano Nobushige has no extra energy to deal with me for the time being. This is an excellent opportunity for me."

He looked forward with firm eyes: "I want to go directly to JUKE!"

James Blake was silent for a few seconds, then said, "I'll help you."

…

Rei Furitani, who is far away in Tokyo, Japan, received a call from Kagemitsu Morofushi on the other side of the ocean. This was originally a good thing, but the problem is - according to the information provided by Matsuda Jinpei, Kagemitsu is now under the supervision of the organization. Call him! !

Rei Fukiya felt strangely the tension he had not seen for a long time: "Asano Nobushige, what else can we say now?"

Listening to the cold voice of someone on the other side of the phone, Nobuhiro had a hard time holding back his laughter.

Is this how things change? It was him who tried hard to push away the people around him at first, but now it was finally Rei Fangtani's turn to do so?

"Ahem." Xinfan cleared his throat, "I have some information that I want to share with you."

Jianggu Ling: "???"

What kind of medicine is sold in Jingguang's gourd?

"Why, do you still want to continue to lie to me now?" Fangtani Ling sneered, "Do you think I will trust you like before?"

Feng Guling was a little panicked now, but he still had to act seriously. After all, if the person monitoring their calls is Rum or Renye Karasuma, any abnormality on his part may become a dagger that hurts Jingguang.

Finally, Nobuhiro couldn't help it anymore and laughed loudly: "Don't be so nervous, Zero, only we can hear our call."

Jianggu Ling actually doesn't believe it.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Nobuhiro had no choice but to confess: "I found Hiroki."

Jianggu Zero: "!!!"

"Come on, Hiroki, say hello to Brother Fanggu."

Soon Hiroki's soft voice came from the receiver: "Brother Jiang Gu, good evening."

Hiroki even switched directly to Tokyo's time zone.

At this time, Feng Gurei could finally breathe a sigh of relief: "It's great. With Hiroki here, it will be much more convenient for you. But how did you find him? I remember you said that Hiroki was blocked."

In fact, Nobuhiro himself didn't know much about this matter. He tapped the screen of his mobile phone to remind Hiroki to explain himself.

"Okay, okay." Hiroki said helplessly, "Actually, my consciousness is always there, but I can't communicate with brother Jingguang. There is a piece of code in Noah's program. I always thought it had been cleaned up. If it weren't for this No matter what, I couldn’t find out that there are still remnants of it.”

"what about now?"

"Brother Jingguang got the information that Sindora Company used to implant JULEP, so he helped me find that code. With the help of brother Jingguang, I have cleaned it up."

Nobushige immediately added: "At least Hiroki himself thinks so."

Hiroki Sawada: "...I won't make the same mistake again!!"

"What about your chest..." Fangtani Rei asked tentatively.

Xinfan asked quietly: "Do you dare to try?"

Jianggu Ling: "..."

No, he didn't dare.

"I can't connect to the device on Brother Jingguang's heart, so I don't know the specific situation inside. If there is an instrument that can scan and analyze that thing, I might be able to find a way." At this point, Hiroki's mood It suddenly sank again, "But Brother Jingguang told me that such a thing is very unstable, and it might start when I scan it with an instrument."

"This is not alarmist. I didn't even go through security when I came to the United States."

"Doesn't that mean that if someone wants to kill you, there is no need for a knife or a gun, just a microwave oven?" Reitani asked strangely.

"It's not like..."

According to Jiang Guling, is the electromagnetic radiation from mobile phones also acceptable?

Rum and that guy obviously wouldn't allow that to happen.

"Anyway, it's a good thing that Hiroki is back. I also have a good thing to tell you."

"Um, what?"

"We found the undercover agent placed by the organization in the police."

"who?"

Fangtani Zero paused for a moment: "You should have already thought of it."

"Is it really him?"

Nobuhiro was slightly stunned, "All the efforts we made in the past five years now seem like nothing more than a joke."

This was really the biggest blow to him.
