Chapter 743 Yuya & Conan: Is a case about to happen?
The group had a good tour of the museum, took many photos as souvenirs, and then prepared to go to the souvenir shop next door to buy some peripherals.
As soon as they went out, they heard a quarrel coming from the side.
It was a blond foreign boy talking to a policeman in English - but judging from the age of his costumes, he should be cosplaying as a police officer from the Sherlock Holmes era.
The little boy's face was full of anxiety: "I know Holmes is here, let me see him!"
The staff member was somewhat helpless, thinking that this was another child who took fiction as reality. This situation had happened countless times, and he was quite skilled in dealing with it: "I'm sorry, Mr. Holmes is out on a case and is not here now."
But the little boy was a little different today. He didn't believe the reason that always worked, and asked, "What case?"
"Well..." The staff didn't know how to answer for a moment. Usually, they could just fool the kids with a few random words and didn't think about the next questions. They didn't react for a moment.
Why is this so troublesome today?
The little boy asked angrily: "You are lying to me! The situation is very urgent. If we don't act now, someone will die! No one except Sherlock Holmes can stop this from happening!"
The staff looked helpless. Wasn't this kid too absorbed in the role? If there was a real case, you should call the police. Why are you looking for Sherlock Holmes here? Are you kidding me?
Yuya and Conan looked at each other and communicated with their eyes.
Yuya: With Conan here, this kid probably isn't lying or playing detective games. I'm afraid a real case is about to happen.
Conan: Based on my detective intuition, this kid is not lying or playing detective games. I'm afraid a real case is about to happen.
Although the conclusion is the same, the two people look at the problem from completely different perspectives.
The little boy looked at his watch and shouted, "OH! NO! The time is almost up, my sister's game is about to start, I have to go back immediately!"
The staff member asked with concern: "Can I help you with anything?"
The little boy was a little annoyed by the staff's perfunctory attitude, and suddenly cursed in Neon language: "No need, you stingy guy!" After that, he ran away around the staff.
Youya was stunned. Neon language?
"Wait a minute, little friend..."
The little boy was suddenly called and looked back with some confusion.
Maori Kogoro was a little confused: "Yuya boy, why did you call him?"
You also smiled and said, "There are some things that I care about..."
He walked up to the little boy, squatted down and asked, "Do you know Neon language?"
The little boy looked at the handsome and gentle older brother in front of him, and he couldn't help but feel a little fond of him. He replied anxiously, "Yes, I lived in Neon for a while."
Youye smiled and said, "I am quite concerned about the case you just mentioned. Can you tell me about it?"
This might be a problem with being a detective. Whenever I encounter a case, I can't help but want to get involved.
But unlike Conan, he is not impulsive enough to ignore the threats around him and can always remain rational.
Maori Kogoro said with some disdain: "What kind of case can a little kid know? He must be playing a prank. Isn't he going to buy souvenirs..."
"Dad!" Mao Lilan interrupted her father with a glare, "Yuye must have his reasons for doing this. Anyway, we are not in a hurry, so just wait a while."
"Tsk!" Kogoro Mori curled his lips, but didn't say anything else.
The little boy hesitated and looked at the people in front of him - although he had a good impression of the older brother in front of him, and he looked much more reliable than the sloppy uncle, could he help him?
But he still held on to a glimmer of hope and asked tentatively: "Can you help me?"
Youya smiled and said, "Although I can't guarantee that I can help you, if you don't tell me what happened, how can I know if I can help you? Am I right, Glass?"
"Huh?" Glass showed a shocked expression, "How do you know my name? Do you know me?"
Yuya shook his head and said with a smile: "It's just a simple reasoning."
"First, there are sugar and cake mix on the corners of your mouth. You must have eaten a cream cake, right? And your cup contains lemon, cucumber, and mint, so it must be a drink called Pimm's, right? But since you are a child, there should be no liqueur in it, only lemonade, right?"
Glass was startled for a moment, wiped the cream from the corner of his mouth, and stared blankly at the cup in his hand: "Yes, I asked the clerk to mix it for me..."
Yuya continued, "Speaking of a match you can watch with cake and Pimm's, the only one here should be the Wimbledon tennis match, right?"
"I saw the news today. The women's singles semi-finals were held. It's already past two o'clock, so your sister should be participating in the second match."
"Among the two contestants, one is Asian, and her appearance does not match yours at all. So, your sister is naturally her opponent, the world's number one queen of grass court, Minierba Glass, who has won the Wimbledon tennis championship for four consecutive years."
Yuya pointed to his chest pocket and said, "Also, you can vaguely see the Wimbledon Stadium VIP Lounge Pass in your pocket."
Looking at Glass who was completely stunned, Youya gently touched his head and asked with a smile: "Well, is there anything wrong with my reasoning?"
Feeling the touch on his head, Glass woke up with a start and shouted in shock: "That's absolutely right! Big brother, your reasoning is so powerful, just like Sherlock Holmes!"
Yuya thought of something, smiled and said, "Well, for the time being, I can be considered a disciple of Sherlock Holmes."
This was admitted by Professor Moriarty himself...although it was in the game.
Of course, some people usually call him the detective who is the best detective of Sherlock Holmes alive or even better than him, but this is a bit too ostentatious and is not suitable to be said in a place like Baker Street. It is even more likely to cause disgust from the little fan of Sherlock Holmes in front of him.
Glass didn't doubt Yuya's words at all, and shouted excitedly: "I see! No wonder you are so awesome!"
Conan and the others at the back twitched their lips at the same time. How could he believe such lies to children?
Oh, he's just a kid, that's okay.
Miyano Shiho couldn't help but sigh in her heart that Yuya was still as good at coaxing children as ever.
Conan rarely felt admiration. No wonder the little brats from the Junior Detective Team listened to Yuya so much. Didn’t you see that these little brats, who had just met for only a few minutes, were looking at Yuya like an idol?
