"Sorry, uncle! I'm going to Teacher Judy's house for lunch! No need to wait for me!"
After saying this, Conan nimbly avoided the clutches of Kogoro Mouri and ran out of the office.
"Stinky boy!"
"Was it Conan who came back just now?" In the kitchen, Ran Mouri heard the voice and asked curiously, sticking her head out.
"Well, the kid said he was going to Teacher Judy's house for lunch at noon, so he doesn't have to make his lunch." Karasuma Ying replied, feeling a little confused.
She just saw that what Conan took out from the desk was the quick sketch that Mr. Amemiya Rui had drawn for Xiaolan.
Is there something wrong with this painting?
What is he going to do with this sketch in such a hurry?
"Buzz!"
My cell phone suddenly vibrated. It was a reply from Miss Hoshino.
[If that's ok, Xiaoying, please come over this afternoon. We can discuss the details of the commission together then.]
【it is good. 】
Ah, don't worry, I didn't have any intention of cutting it, but I suddenly realized that I was a loser, and I couldn't help but feel a little sad.
By the way, I want to thank a young lady. I just discovered last night that this young lady actually voiced Shirakawa Kiyoshi! Aligato!!! (shocked)
Chapter 61 Xiaoying is already mine.
In a roadside art shop, a gray-haired old man was holding a magnifying glass, carefully studying two portrait sketches on the table.
There is nothing special about these two sketches. If I have to say something, it is that the drawing paper of one of them is a bit old and seems to have been there for several years.
The other one is still very new, probably having been drawn not long ago.
The old man carefully compared the two sketches, while Judy and Conan sat aside and waited quietly.
"Well, judging from the comparison of the lines of the characters in these two sketches, they are most likely drawn by the same person."
Finally, the old man put down the magnifying glass and spoke to the two people beside him.
Upon hearing this, Judy suddenly stood up from her seat. She walked forward excitedly and asked quickly:
"Are you sure? These two paintings are really painted by the same person?"
"Well, if we don't consider the possibility of imitation, then it should be the same person." Facing Judy's questioning, the old man nodded again.
"Thank you!"
Putting a few Japanese yen on the table, Judy grabbed the two sketches and turned away quickly. At the same time, she took out her cell phone, quickly edited a text message and sent it to Mamiya Shin.
"Teacher Judy!"
Behind them, Conan, who was still in a confused state, hurriedly followed, and the two of them got into Judy's car parked on the side of the road.
"Teacher Judy, what's the problem with these two paintings?" Conan asked while fastening his seat belt in the back seat.
This morning, Judy suddenly called him and asked him how much he knew about Amemiya Rui who used to live downstairs from the Maori family.
Conan, who was still unaware of the situation, told everything he knew, including that Amamiya Rui was a painter and had drawn pictures for Xiaolan and the others...
Then, Judy suddenly became excited. After confirming that the paintings drawn by Amemiya Rui were still there, she immediately asked Conan to bring those paintings to meet her.
Realizing the importance of the matter from Judy's tone, Conan did not delay. He quickly returned to the office to get the painting, and then hurried to meet Judy.
Then, what happened just now in the art shop happened.
The two sketches that the old man was looking at, one was brought by Conan, and the other was brought by Judy herself.
Among them, the one Conan took out was the one that Amemiya Rui drew for Mao Li Ran at that time.
The one that Judy brought was a picture of herself.
With the old gentleman's identification, it can be basically confirmed that these two sketches are most likely from the hand of the same person.
In other words, the member of the organization who disguised himself as Rui Amemiya had also painted a portrait of Judy before?
Conan came to a conclusion that he felt was a little far-fetched.
"It's Regal."
Judy sat in the driver's seat, staring straight ahead with a somewhat ferocious expression.
"These two paintings are both from Reger's hand...Amemiya Rui, he is Reger!"
Judy was trembling, and Conan couldn't tell whether she was afraid or angry.
"Reger?"
This was the first time he heard this code name.
"He's number two in the organization."
Taking a deep breath, Judy forced herself to calm down and slowly explained:
“This person is extremely mysterious, and there is no record of his original identity information, even within the FBI.
The only thing that can be confirmed is that he joined the organization very early, at least twenty years ago.
In the past ten years, he has spent most of his time in the United States and Europe, and only suddenly came to Japan some time ago.
Conan, my main mission in Japan is to investigate and arrest Regal."
At this point, Judy turned to look at Conan and said seriously:
"So, if you know anything about the person he pretended to be, please don't hide it and tell the teacher everything, okay?"
Beika TV is one of the most influential TV stations in Tokyo.
Riding a small electric car to the side door of the TV station, Karasuma Ying saw Hoshino Terumi who had been waiting there.
"Here, Xiaoying."
Still dressed in the same cool style, still with a cigarette burning all the time, Hoshino Terumi raised her hand slightly and greeted Karasuma Ying.
"Ms. Hoshino!" After locking the car, Karasuma Ying ran over quickly.
"No need to use honorifics, just call me Terumi."
"Yeah, Terumi...sister."
The two walked into the TV station building side by side. Hoshino Terumi stood in front of the elevator door and pressed a floor number.
"Have you read the contents of the commission?"
"Yeah, I've seen it."
"Don't worry, I won't make any requests that will embarrass you, nor will I ask you to come here every day."
"I know."
The two walked into the elevator and Hoshino Terumi pressed the door close button.
"Sorry! Wait a minute!"
Just then, a shout was heard outside the elevator, and a man's hand reached in before the elevator door closed completely.
"Huh...huh..."
As the elevator door opened, a middle-aged man with fluffy short curly hair appeared in front of the two.
"You are always in such a hurry, Somei." Hoshino Terumi looked at him and said lightly.
Somei Shogo is one of the many directors of Beika TV. He is an excellent director and is not from the same program team as Hoshino Terumi.
Therefore, although the two knew each other, they were not familiar with each other.
"I'm sorry, Miss Hoshino."
After apologizing to Hoshino Terumi, Somei Shogo quickly turned around and waved, shouting:
"Maiko, come on! Otherwise you'll have to wait for the next elevator, ok?"
"I see, Shogo. Seriously, I'm wearing high heels..."
Following a somewhat complaining female voice, a woman with short hair also walked into the elevator.
The woman was wearing a green women's suit, had short hair cut to her ears, and was dressed very smartly.
Maiko Kusumi is Somei Shogo's assistant. They are in the same production team and are said to be in a relationship.
It is said to be.
"Hello, Miss Hoshino."
Kuzumi Maiko first greeted Hoshino Terumi, then glared at Somei Shogo beside her and complained:
"Really? Next time if I don't make it in time, I'll just wait until the next round. My feet are almost in pain because of running so fast..."
"I'm sorry, Maiko, this elevator is really slow. It will take at least ten minutes to wait for the next round..."
The two of them were talking back and forth. Hoshino Terumi, who was watching this scene, suddenly said:
"You two really have a very good relationship. Have you made it clear?"
"Ugh?"
"what?"
The two of them were stunned at the same time.
"Isn't that so? I see you guys are even wearing couple watches."
Hoshino Terumi pointed to the couple's watches on their wrists, and Karasuma Ying beside her nodded subconsciously.
They noticed the two men as soon as they entered the elevator.
"No, um, this is actually a birthday present that Maiko gave me on my birthday..." Somei Shogo explained hurriedly.
"Yes, yes, I just thought it looked nice, so I bought one for myself..." Hisumi Maiko responded quickly, looking very flustered.
"It's not a couple's watch..."
"That's it."
Hoshino Terumi nodded expressionlessly, as if she believed it, while Karasuma Ying looked at the two embarrassed people with a smile on her face.
