Stay away from Conan

"Conan...and Xiao Ai, Ayumi, Mitsuhiko, Genta..."

Seeing Conan and others appear here, Xiaolan couldn't help but feel a little surprised, and couldn't help but ask:

"Didn't you go to the movies this morning? Why are you here?"

"Because we have to prepare for the school festival performance, we are preparing to rehearse here!"

Faced with Xiaolan's inquiry, Mitsuhiko first gave an explanation.

When they heard that Didan Elementary School was going to hold a "school festival", Xiaolan and Yuanzi couldn't help but blinked in surprise, and then thought for a moment -

"Speaking of which...it seems that the school festival of Tedan Elementary School is this month!"

Xiaolan said thoughtfully.

"Ah, Sister Xiaolan also knows when our school will hold the school festival?"

Hearing Xiaolan say this, Ayumi asked in surprise.

In response, Xiaolan smiled and said softly:

"Yes, because Yuanzi and I also graduated from Didan Elementary School!"

Hearing this, it was interesting that Xiao Ai on the side couldn't help but glance at Conan beside him. He seemed to be amused that he, who was also a "Graduate of Didan Elementary School", didn't know about the school festival just now. ——

In this regard, Conan still asked Xiaolan:

"Then Sister Xiaolan, what are you doing here?"

As he said that, Conan noticed the stack of paper in Xiaolan's hand. At the same time, he recalled what he heard Xiaolan reciting from afar. He guessed that this was probably a printed story, so he couldn't help but add:

"Because the 'School Festival' is coming soon, what plays are you going to rehearse?"

"Nah!"

In response, Xiaolan smiled and shook her head, explaining:

"The school festival of Didan High School will not be held for a while. This time it is mainly due to school activities. Our grade has to perform a charity play in the church to raise donations for charity, and Yuanzi happens to be in charge of writing the script of the play."

"And this event was originally sponsored by our family's consortium, so I took this opportunity to try to familiarize myself with the work of the director and screenwriter, so as to prepare for the grand performance that will be held during the Didan High School School Festival. !”

Yuanzi followed Xiaolan's words and explained.

"That's right..."

Hearing this, Conan couldn't help but nodded, then looked at Gao Yuan aside and asked with some surprise:

"But why is Brother Mingzhi here too?"

Regarding this, Xiao Ai, who had the same doubts, couldn't help but glance at Gao Yuan who appeared here, and praised Conan for taking the initiative to raise this question——

At least, you don’t have to ask in person.

Regarding this issue, Yuanzi explained:

"Because I am writing a mystery drama, I wanted to get professional advice on the script I had just written, so I called Mr. Akechi over!"

"Hey! That's what happened!"

At this time, after hearing what Sonoko said, Mitsuhiko seemed very excited and couldn't help but say:

"Then we want to hear about it too! We are also looking for materials for the script of the 'School Festival'! Sister Sonoko's script may be a good reference!"

At the same time, Ayumi and Genta also looked very interested and looked at Sonoko expectantly.

Regarding this, seeing Mitsuhiko and the others looking forward to his script so enthusiastically, Sonoko couldn't help but become more interested, and said with a smile:

"Of course! If even you like my script, it means that the audience for the script I wrote is quite wide!"

So, Yuanzi looked at Xiaolan beside her proudly, and Xiaolan understood what she meant. She turned the stack of paper manuscripts in her hand to the front again and told everyone the script of the play again——

Simply put, the plot of the script is about:

In the office of "Weekly NEWS", a magazine in Tokyo, the president and editor-in-chief, Takeo Oshita, was stabbed in the back and died on the sofa indoors.

The people suspected of committing the crime are four employees of the company. They are: Junpei Minamizawa, Naoya Higashida, Eiko Nishizaki, and Qian Kitano. Each of these four people had a motive for committing the crime.

When Officer Megure and Officer Takagi Wataru arrived at the scene to investigate, they were in trouble due to the investigation of the case. The famous detective Mouri Kogoro who happened to be at the scene pointed out the strange death condition of the deceased at the scene——

The deceased who fell face down on the ground stretched out his index finger vigorously before death and pointed his index finger somewhere in the room.

Therefore, this strange behavior was recognized by Mouri Kogoro as the death message of the deceased. According to what Mouri Kogoro believed, the direction pointed by the deceased's finger was followed by the wiring pattern of the "Amitabha Lotus" along the cracks in the floor. , and was finally able to point to a box with "North Star Beer" written on the outer packaging, so Maori Kogoro determined that the murderer was Kitano Qiang whose name had the character "North" in it.

However, because such an analysis was too outrageous, after being denied by Officer Megure, Kogoro Mori once again came up with an even more unreliable reasoning, causing the scene to fall into silence——

And at this moment, the protagonist of the story, the Queen of Mystery Suzuki Sonoko, finally made her official appearance!

——The above is the content of the script written by Yuanzi that Xiaolan is reading, but at the same time, the content of the script also ends here and there is no further content.

"Wow! Sister Yuanzi is so handsome!"

After listening to this content, Ayumi seemed to be immersed in the plot of Sonoko's appearance, and said with great surprise.

"This is how the protagonist should appear!"

Mitsuhiko also agreed with this way of appearing, and deliberately took out the Junior Detective Team's portable notebook to record it, intending to use it as a reference.

In this regard, Yuanzi couldn't help but smile proudly when he heard the compliments from the two people.

But Yuantai seemed completely puzzled by this and said doubtfully:

"Um...sister, is this a composition you wrote?"

Immediately, as soon as these words came out, everyone present looked at Yuantai in surprise, completely unable to understand how Yuantai could say such a thing——

"It's unbelievable! Genta, what were you listening to just now! This is a play script written by Sister Yuanzi. I told you just now!"

Mitsuhiko asked first.

However, as soon as he finished speaking, everyone heard Yuantai's stomach making a "gurgling" sound, so Yuantai explained sheepishly:

"Uh... I'm so hungry, so I was thinking about when to have lunch... Hey, did you tell me?"

In this regard, everyone's expressions became a little helpless again——

"Hey, I told you already!"

Xiao Ai, on the other hand, seemed a little calm at this time, but also explained a little coldly and arrogantly:

"She also said that she used money to obtain the positions of director and screenwriter!"

"Hey, hey... don't say it so harshly..."

Facing Xiao Ai's statement, Yuanzi looked a little embarrassed. She didn't expect that her family's investment would be understood in this way by this little girl, so she said as if she wanted to refute -

"Actually, it was decided after class discussion!"

However, Xiaolan gave a more detailed explanation-

"However... because in the class activity discussion class, only Yuanzi volunteered to take on these two jobs that no one had signed up for yet... Everyone saw that she was so enthusiastic, so no one competed with her."

Hearing this, Conan couldn't help but smile helplessly——

"I knew that was the case..."

Conan thought so in his heart.

"However, I think the story is very interesting!"

Mitsuhiko smiled and praised:

"Just read the part of the Word now."

"Yeah yeah!"

In response to the compliment, Yuanzi responded enthusiastically:

"The highlight of this play is that real police officers and detectives appear on the stage...although in the end it was our classmates who played these roles."

"But when it comes to that...my dad's image is a bit..."

When Xiaolan heard Yuanzi mention this, she couldn't help but remind her:

"Although he did look like this before when he was not the 'Sleeping Kogoro'..."

"Sorry sorry..."

In response, Sonoko put her hands together in front of her mouth and said with an apologetic expression:

"Because... the protagonist this time is me! Kogoro will not fall asleep..."

"Of course... who told me not to be in the script..."

When Conan heard this, he complained silently in his heart, then thought about it and asked:

"But, is it really okay to write the three of them into the script? And isn't it a bit..."

"it's okay no problem!"

Yuanzi smiled and explained:

"As long as it's fun, it doesn't matter what the subject matter is!"

So, facing Sonoko's willfulness, Conan could only helplessly smile -

"If you don't talk about this, I really want to hear the following story!"

However, compared to talking about these, Mitsuhiko and Ayumi were more interested in the development of the story, so they said this:

"Ayumi wants to hear it too."

"Yes, Sonoko...what's going on down there? The script only ends here?"

In this regard, Xiaolan asked curiously as she flipped through the manuscript paper.

However, when faced with this problem, Sonoko couldn't help showing a troubled expression and sighed silently——

"No, that's all the script is written here. No matter how much I think about it, I can't figure out how to write it next..."

"Why!"

Hearing this, Xiaolan, Mitsuhiko, and Ayumi who were curious about this couldn't help showing expressions of loss and surprise——

"Then...what does the finger mean?"

Mitsuhiko asked reluctantly.

"have no idea."

Yuanzi shook his head.

"Where's the prisoner?"

Ayumi asked.

"I didn't think about it."

Yuanzi smiled bitterly.

Suddenly, everyone present looked at Yuanzi with helpless expressions——

"I just think about how to make myself look handsome..."

Yuanzi couldn't help but explain awkwardly.

"But, it will be staged next week, and the script hasn't been written yet..."

Xiaolan asked worriedly.

"Yeah... including the time for practicing lines, preparing costumes, stage design and music, etc., the script must be written out today! That's why I thought of professional detectives like Mr. Akechi, hoping he could give me some valuable advice. Please give me your opinions and help me improve the script!”

At this point, Yuanzi finally unabashedly stated the purpose of inviting Gao Yuan——

"Because I wrote Uncle Maori as a role that could attract people's attention, so I was too embarrassed to go to him..."

With that said, Yuanzi stood up, came to Gao Yuan with great momentum, and said seriously:

"So, the most critical issue is the death message of the finger..."

"Is this the only problem?"

However, before Yuanzi finished speaking or Gao Yuan expressed his stance, Xiao Ai walked to Gao Yuan's side at some point, folded his hands in front of him, and said coldly:

"First of all, there is the issue of plot setting. Why was Detective Maori at the scene of the crime? Was it called by Officer Megure? Or was he walking on the street and saw the patrol car on the side of the road? The four suspects have 'Southeast' in their names. The four words "Northwest"... well, it doesn't matter for the sake of drama. But how can we express the gap in the floor to the audience? It can't be conveyed to the audience through lines alone, right?

Continuously, Xiao Ai calmly explained the problems in Yuanzi's script——

"This... such a trivial matter..."

Faced with Xiao Ai's continuous questioning, Yuanzi seemed not to be outdone. She clenched her fists with both hands and tried to refute, but in the end——

"I never thought about it!"

"I knew it."

After closing her eyes slightly, Xiao Ai said as expected:

"Moreover, even if I think about the meaning of the death message, there is still no conclusive evidence. Moreover, the biggest problem is that as a short play, the plot begins with a lengthy police investigation and questioning session, and it is just put on the stage. The audience seems really Is it interesting?”

Hearing Xiao Ai pointing out the problem endlessly, Yuanzi's mood gradually collapsed, his whole body was shaking unconsciously, and he was about to cry in his eyes——

"It's still too late. Stop acting in dramas. Isn't it good to sing or something like that?"

Finally, after Xiao Ai said these words, Yuanzi could no longer bear it, leaned against Xiao Lan and cried wantonly -

"I'm humiliated!"

In this regard, Xiaolan could only hug Yuanzi and feel relieved for a while, then helplessly, she looked at Gao Yuan and asked him for help——

"Anyway...Mr. Akechi, what do you think?"

"Um……"

At this time, after hearing that Xiao Ai had almost finished answering all the questions, Gao Yuan could only smile helplessly and couldn't help but say:

"As a short mystery story... it's not interesting!"

"Wow!"

Like a knowing blow, Yuanzi burst into tears...
