The Corpse Collector In Conan Chapter 311: The status of the boss

Shika Hattori pretends to be an ordinary client. After she finished speaking the lines she had planned in advance, she gave a shallow bow.

She didn't know that An Shitou and Jiang Xia had recognized her identity, and she didn't realize that in the space between her bow and her head, the two took the opportunity to exchange a suspicious look.

As the mother of Hattori Heiji, Hattori Shizuka has always been very curious about the "Jiangxia" that her son and her husband call Jiangxia - the son always describes Jiangxia like a monster, but the husband admires it very much. In addition, Yuanshan and Ye seem to be I have a good impression of Jiangxia.

The polarized comments given by people around her undoubtedly aroused the interest of Shizuka Hattori. So she adjusted her trip to Tokyo slightly.

——Originally, she only needed to arrive tomorrow for her friend's son's wedding.

But now, Hattori Shizuka decided to come a day earlier to see Jiang Xia first. In the process, he tested his ability, observed his character, and then looked at his son, husband, and promising future daughter-in-law, who was wearing tinted glasses.

……

In order to achieve this goal, when Shizuka Hattori spoke, she used Tokyo dialect, which sounds very authentic at first glance. And he specially hid the surname "Hattobu", a surname that easily reminded Jiang Xia of Hattori Heiji, and only said his surname was "Chibo".

In addition, she also used a Band-Aid to cover up the scar on the wedding ring on the ring finger of her left hand under the excuse of poor cooking skills, and pretended that her mother and child were single - this is not only a cover up of the identity of "Hitto Heiji's mother", It is also one of the small tests of Jiangxia's ability.

It was Shizuka Hattori's first visit to this office. And her son Hattori Heiji had never seen Jiang Xia in the detective office.

So Hattori Shizuka didn't know the usual state of the office, and she didn't feel that there was anything wrong with Anshitou immediately calling to help her find Jiang Xia after hearing that she wanted to find Jiang Xia. I just feel that this firm is very service-minded, or the boss thinks she is a big rich client after seeing her dress, and privately offers potential VIP treatment... Similar things, Hattori Jinghua has encountered before. Not a lot.

In short, at the moment, Shizuka Hattori is unaware that she has been recognized for her true identity.

Jiang Xia silently looked at this elder who had lost his horse before meeting but was still concentrating on his performance, so he had to pretend that he didn't notice anything and accompany her to perform according to the normal process.

Seeing Jiang Xia coming, Amuro stood up and gave him the seat opposite Shizuka Hattori.

After that, the boss of the detective agency did not leave the office, but began to pretend to find tea to make tea, and stayed in the shop for this reason-he was a little curious about why Hattori Shizuka came.

……

Shika Hattori settled down gracefully, chatted for a while, and then began to talk about her pre-rehearsed commission.

She took out a well-preserved old photo from her bag, placed it on the table, and turned it to an angle suitable for Jiang Xia's viewing.

Jiang Xia looked down for a moment and found that this was a group photo of members of the Kendo Club. The members don't look very young, they probably haven't even gone to high school. In the middle, a boy with thick eyebrows held a trophy and grinned happily, and beside him was a circle of six members.

"I would like to ask you to help find this person in the middle."

Shitka Hattori stretched out her hand, her light-white fingertips flickering on the man holding the trophy: "His name is Shiro Shibata." After she finished speaking, she thought about it and added, "This photo was taken in the second year of junior high school. Of - that is, thirty years ago. His appearance and height may have changed a lot."

Jiang Xia nodded and began to ask some routine questions, pretending that he was seriously collecting clues.

When two people communicate.

Besides, Amuro moved lightly, reducing the noise, so that he could hear every sentence of the conversation between the two in the room.

...not interested in gossip about the wives of high-ranking police officers. Mainly as an intelligence officer, he felt that he should maintain a high degree of sensitivity and vigilance against various abnormal information.

Amuro thought carefully while listening: Shiro Shibata, this is a man's name... Speaking of which, Mrs. Hattori suddenly came to Jiang Xia anonymously, perhaps not because she heard Jiang Xia's information from Hattori Heiji , but really aimed at Jiang Xia's reputation as a detective.

This actually makes sense. First of all, judging from the performance of Hattori Heiji at the door of the detective agency last time, although he knew Jiang Xia, he was obviously not familiar with Jiang Xia. In addition, many high school students of this age are still at the end of their rebellious period and may not necessarily tell their parents about their situation.

Because that is to say, there is such a possibility - Hattori Shizuka didn't even know that Hattori Heiji knew Jiang Xia. To her, Jiang Xia was just a strange Tokyo detective.

If that's the case, then Mrs. Hattori didn't call the police in Osaka to find a detective, but went to Tokyo on purpose, and even released the commission under an anonymous name. The ring finger of the left hand ~IndoMTL.com~ is to cover the traces of the wedding ring?

…Interesting.

Amuro Toru took a sip of black tea with some fun.

A second later, he looked down at the water stains on the rim of the glass and was slightly startled.

...This tea seems to be specially made for guests.

Amuro Toru paused for a while, then quietly put the teacup aside, and washed the cup for the guest again.

It's been a long time since he's been in his office and he's not very skilled.

Speaking of which, these chores should be done by a theoretical employee like Jiang Xia, but instead he is doing it...

Amuro looked at Hattori Jinghua, who was having a good chat with Jiang Xia, and thought about how she cherished her words before Jiang Xia appeared, and sighed inwardly. The bosses these days are really getting less and less human rights.

……

"A while ago, I accidentally lost the medal I won in the summer kendo competition in my third year of junior high school. For me, aside from the medal, the only souvenir that can engrave that time is a photo. .

"And before I graduated from junior high school, I accidentally took that photo as a bookmark and put it in the book I borrowed from Mr. Shibata. When I returned the book, I forgot to take the photo out.

"When I think about this again, Mr. Shibata has moved house, and the connection between us has also been cut off." Shizuka Hattori lowered his head slightly, looking a little embarrassed, and acting very focused, "So I would like you to find Mr. Shibata and help me retrieve that photo."

Amuro Toru, who was not far away, heard this and made a new guess with great interest:

Compared to this photo, Mrs. Hattori may be using the photo as an excuse to find her first love.

——Looking for the first love from decades ago is actually a prosperous business for private investigators here, second only to finding cats and dogs to catch mistresses.
