Oritis in the world of Detective Conan

Chapter 243: Judy's Memories and the Flower Viewing Trap (Part 1)

In the shrine filled with cherry blossoms, Dr. Agasa, Conan, Haibara and the three little ones were walking on the road, talking and laughing.

"Ah, the cherry blossoms are in full bloom. It's nice to enjoy the flowers here at the shrine." Dr. Agasa sighed as he looked around.

Ayumi also looked very happy: "Yes, and the weather is so nice today. It's a pity that Alice went out for an outing with her family and friends, so she can't join us."

Huiyuan crossed her arms and said, "There are quite a few people on their side. If they join us, the team will be too big."

Conan recalled that in the morning when the little girl came to say goodbye to them in a car, there were six people crammed into the small private car. It was really...

This is how the novelist and his group, who were observing Conan and his group's behavior through ravens, arranged their trip in the explorer's car while preparing to go for an outing.

The explorer was driving, the novelist was in the passenger seat, the little girl was sitting on his lap, Crazy Eyes, Deer Head, and the doctor were crowded in the back seat, and in the trunk was Guard No. 26. Conan didn't see Guard No. 26 lying in the trunk, but he saw the packed back seat.

[Crazy Eyes: Damn it! When will we even get to our destination? You two are practically crushing my old bones to death!]

[Deer Head: I'm so sorry, Mr. Balk. How about we rent another car on our way back?]

[Doctor: To be honest, I could stay home and not come.]

[Little girl: No, Uncle Percy, you've been stuck in the basement for so long, you need to come out for a walk!]

[Guard 26: Bang Bang! Go out and play! Bang Bang!]

[Explorer: We're almost there. Should I speed up?]

[Novelist: No, don’t floor the accelerator.]

[First Mate: So you look a bit like luncheon meat in a can.]

[Novelist: You look like luncheon meat to me.]

[Red Butterfly: But I have to say, the cherry blossoms at the shrine are really beautiful.]

[Antique dealer: Going on a picnic is indeed a good way to relax.]

[Postman: Just in time to take Wick for a walk.]

[Spellcaster: Conan and the others are also at the shrine, remember to disguise yourself.]

[Antique dealer: Don't worry, we've checked everything, there won't be any problems.]

At the shrine, Genta is already looking forward to the lunch box that Professor Agasa will bring, but before that, the group plans to draw a fortune lot first.

Huiyuan noticed Conan looking around, so she asked him if he was looking for someone, but Conan evaded the question.

At the lottery draw, everyone else drew lucky, Haibara even drew very lucky, but Conan drew unlucky.

Just when the three little ones were about to tie the fortune sticks to the knot beside them, an old man stepped forward to stop them.

"It's a rare opportunity to draw such a good fortune, so take it home. The reason I tied the fortune sticks together is because I hope to keep the bad luck away, that is, I do it to change my fortune."

"These days, tying up the lot, whether it's a good or bad one, has become a common practice. Sigh, young people these days."

Huiyuan looked at Conan with a smile on her face: "So, the only one who needs to be tied up is you, Edogawa."

Conan was speechless: "Damn it, you actually peeked at my fortune... So what did you draw?"

Haibara quickly showed her fortune stick that said "good luck" and looked at Conan with a smug look on her face.

"Good luck?" Conan was shocked.

The three little ones on the side praised Huibara for her good luck today. At this moment, a familiar figure appeared behind them.

"But some people say that bad luck is rare, and it can be considered a good omen, so don't be discouraged, cool kid~"

The person who spoke was Teacher Judy. The three little ones hadn't seen this teacher for a long time, so they all came forward to say hello.

Huiyuan reacted and said to Conan: "I see, because you two wanted to have a secret conversation, you called the teacher here, right?"

When Conan and Teacher Judy heard what Haibara said, they both looked at each other in surprise.

Huibara continued, "I've heard that places like parks and shrines are often used by spies as a good place to exchange information. Okay, everyone, let's move away. These two seem to want to talk in private."

The three children were stunned when they heard this, but they still followed Huiyuan's steps. Huiyuan added: "However, this is also a place that is easy to be targeted by the police, so you'd better be careful."

After being bombarded with words from Haibara, Teacher Judy could not say anything except "OK". Only Conan was still looking at Haibara who was walking away with a speechless face.

After Haibara and the others walked away, Conan and Teacher Judy finally started exchanging information.

"So, what do you want to tell me?"

Conan thought briefly and said, "If I remember correctly, Teacher Judy said she once saw Mr. Akai with burn scars, right?"

Teacher Judy nodded: "Yes, it was when the bank robbery happened."

"What you saw was not Mr. Akai, but an accomplice of the Black Organization, a man named Bourbon in disguise."

"What?" Judy was extremely shocked.

"They wanted to confirm whether the real Mr. Akai was dead, so they disguised themselves and hung around Mr. Akai's acquaintances. Because from their reactions, they could tell whether the FBI had helped him fake his death."

Conan thought back to the previous events: "However, when he was on the Suzuki Express, Vermouth, who asked him to disguise himself as Mr. Akai, seemed to have disguised himself as Mr. Akai."

Judy's shock never ceased. "The Suzuki Express? So, they were the ones who blew up that train?"

"Well..." Because the music of Metropolis was playing throughout the train at that time, Conan was unable to get any specific information from Yukiko. He didn't know whether it was Vermouth's doing or Oritis's people were just being mysterious.

"The one you are talking about, isn't that the cover that Mr. Jose gave you?" A clear young voice sounded behind Conan.

The visitors are the night watchman, the red butterfly, the antique dealer and the postman.

The Night Watchman was wearing ordinary clothes. In order to disguise the fact that he had alchemical products on him, his hands were now in the shape of red crystals, and he wore a layer of black silk gloves on the outside.

Hongdie's disguise was simpler. She simply changed out of her Abyss fashion and put on a more exquisite kimono. After all, she had no shortage of such a kimono.

The antique dealer didn't need to disguise himself. The postman removed the screen in front of his eyes, put on a thick jacket to hide the printer embedded in his body, and also changed the puppy Wick back to his normal appearance.

It was as if a case had just been mentioned when the people involved arrived at the scene. Conan looked at this group of people and felt very embarrassed.

The night watchman silently chewed a bunch of meatballs and let the antique dealer speak. "Well, parks and shrines are indeed good meeting places. But generally only British and Russian agents would do that. I really don't know what it's like in the United States."

Conan screamed in his heart: Miss Qi, this is not the point!
