Chapter 156 Koi Girl
In the following innings, without pitcher Koo, the score was caught up by the Beika High School players, who were about to tie or even overtake them.
Logically speaking, even if Xiaowei hadn't appeared, Xiuhao Academy shouldn't have been in such a completely suppressed situation.
However, competitions are very easily affected by one's spirit and energy.
The fact that their team's key players have made consecutive mistakes and are now not even there to watch the game has undoubtedly dealt a blow to them.
Even Conan, who wasn't initially interested, started cheering.
"Hmm, it's starting?"
Akutagawa saw someone rush to the edge of the field and say something to the principal. Then, at the coach's instruction, all the school team members surrounded him, and a bunch of people were stunned.
The competition was immediately stopped by the school.
"What happened?"
Xiaolan asked with some confusion.
Sonoko Suzuki was also curious, and judging from those people's behavior, it probably wasn't a good thing: "I'll go take a look."
Akutagawa Hiko stood up, dusted off imaginary dust, and said enthusiastically, "Let's go together. We can help each other if there are any problems." Ran and Conan had no objections, but the drunken Kogoro Mouri was already asleep in the empty audience seats.
The others didn't bother with him. He was a grown man; how could he possibly get lost here? Besides, although Kogoro Mouri was drunk, he hadn't drunk too much and wasn't so easy to deal with.
When the group arrived at the chairman's office, they found that the winning banner kept there had been completely destroyed.
The embroidered side of the banner was torn to shreds. "This is outrageous! How could this happen?!"
Sonoko Suzuki looked so angry that one might doubt whether she was even a student at Xiuhao Academy.
Conan noticed that everyone was just staring at the tattered banner with varying expressions, but no one seemed to think of calling the police. He found it strange: "Why isn't anyone calling the police after something like this happened?"
Sonoko Suzuki poked Conan's head and couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
No wonder Ayan likes to touch Conan's head so much; it really feels nice.
After touching her, Sonoko Suzuki coughed lightly and explained, "Of course, it's for the sake of face. Regardless of whether the perpetrator is someone from inside or outside the school, we need to come up with a corresponding countermeasure."
Conan covered his head in dissatisfaction and stepped aside.
He noticed that Akutagawa Hiko seemed uninterested in the case and had no intention of helping to find the murderer. He immediately perked up, hoping to solve the case as soon as possible and enjoy the fun of being a detective.
However, his hopes were soon dashed.
Someone in the crowd recognized Akutagawa Hiko...
Left with no other choice, Akutagawa Hiko swiftly obtained the utility knife used to cut the banner from Koogi and the key to the chairman's office from the principal.
Akutagawa Hiko ignored the mother and son who were vying to take the blame upon themselves.
After a thorough analysis, the principal was quickly identified as the prime suspect.
The news of the chairman's death became the final straw that broke the principal's back.
He knelt down and began to repent for his actions.
Akutagawa Hiko sighed.
Perhaps because of his past life experiences, he actually empathized more with the principal who was caught in a dilemma than those teenagers who were chasing their dreams.
Society is cruel; few people can make a living through their dreams.
While college admission is not the only path to success, it is certainly the clearest and most risk-controlled one, and this school is known for its high college admission rate.
If it weren't for the sudden death of the chairman of the board, which could have been used to make a fuss, the public pressure on a school with a principal who could destroy a winning banner that represented dreams is unimaginable.
"It seems that Xiaowei has decided to participate in the regional competition. It's a stroke of luck amidst misfortune."
Ran was shopping for groceries with Conan at the supermarket when she suddenly exclaimed to Conan.
Conan ignored it. He felt empty inside. He had missed such a great reasoning opportunity.
He should have been on guard earlier, otherwise he wouldn't have been caught off guard without even having time to use earplugs. Who could defend against such a zero-frame attack? The moment he saw the principal take out the key, he knew it was all over.
My brain, acting on its own, reversed the reasoning process and instantly understood everything, without experiencing any pleasure in the process.
Seeing that Conan seemed lost in thought, and knowing that children often have many whimsical ideas, Ran Mouri, who had once been a child herself, didn't disturb him.
She quickly identified a banner.
The supermarket is currently running a promotion: spend over 10,000 yuan and you'll get a chance to win a prize.
Ran Mouri remembered Sonoko Suzuki's joking remark and, as if possessed, bought a lot of things, all of which were exactly what the family needed, so it wasn't a waste.
As Ran Mouri walked out of the supermarket with a big smile on her face, carrying her purchases, Conan rubbed his eyes and stared in disbelief at the four-person hot spring hotel package in his hand.
Actually, Xiaolan didn't get the package ticket they wanted. They got a limited edition plush toy, which was swapped with a guy who got a ticket and desperately needed the plush toy to appease his girlfriend.
Conan still finds it hard to believe that he has witnessed Ran's luck once again.
The next day, Akutagawa Hiko, who originally intended to book the hot spring hotel himself, suddenly received a call from Ran and learned about her experience with Conan in the supermarket.
"She truly lives up to her name as a lucky girl."
With only a few days left until Kogoro Mouri's class reunion, Hiko Akutagawa was even more curious about what Kaito Kuroba wanted to do by contacting him at this time.
Akutagawa picked up the white pigeon with a little blood on its wing and took a piece of paper from its leg.
Although the pigeon was stained with blood, the situation shouldn't be too urgent, otherwise they wouldn't have resorted to sending messages by pigeon.
His phone number isn't hard to find.
That was indeed the case, although a large portion of the letter was spent complaining that the zoo was giving him a lot of trouble.
However, his witty humor and smugness at the zoo's inability to do anything about him also indicate that he is still safe.
The letter mentioned that he met the illusionist codenamed Spider, as well as the heir to red magic. The thing sealed in his eyes allowed him to escape danger.
"The spider used it once, and Koizumi Akako used it once. It seems like they've used up all their defensive illusions. I don't think I told Kaito that he only has one illusion in each eye."
If he were to carelessly use a non-existent illusion to provoke that witch, or some other supernatural being, he could be attacked immediately!
