Chapter 228 Tequila Leaves Alive and Conan's Location is Successfully Tracked

At the entrance to the restroom.

Conan leaned against the wall.

The glasses indicated that the tequila was located in one of the bathroom stalls. The listening device picked up the sound of a key opening a box, as well as the tequila's muttering.

"A USB flash drive?"

"Forget it, let's check it again when we get back!"

"He probably wouldn't dare supply the organization with counterfeit goods—"

"It's just a list."

Click——!

There was the sound of a door opening.

Conan quickly hid around the corner.

Seeing Tequila carrying a suitcase and walking out of the exhibition hall, he didn't think twice before trying to follow.

however--

"Conan——!"

Conan ultimately did not leave the exhibition hall.

He was lifted up by the collar by a slender hand.

Watching helplessly as Tequila's figure disappeared at the elevator entrance, she struggled and shouted in desperation:

"Sister Xiaolan, please let me go! I have something very important to do, and I'm running out of time!"

"What's important?"

Xiao Lan's pretty and cute face was adorned with a gentle smile.

Conan suddenly felt a chill, as if something bad was about to happen. He opened his mouth:

"this--"

Even though Ran has been taken away by Natsume, Conan still doesn't want to tell Ran that he is Shinichi and that he was shrunk by the poison administered by the Black Organization.

"Xiao Lan, beat him up, spank his butt!"

A pleasant yet exasperating voice came from her ear, and Xiaolan's pretty face darkened. She couldn't help but roll her eyes at Yukiko on the virtual screen!

What is Yukiko-neechan saying?

Although Conan looks like a child.

But he is Shinichi.

You want me to spank him? Are you kidding me?

I have a boyfriend, okay?

"Yukiko, stop fooling around, we have serious business to discuss!"

On another virtual screen, Vermouth, dressed in pajamas, looked languid. It was midnight in New York, but she wasn't sleepy at all. A charming smile graced her delicate face as she prepared to watch the show.

"Okay~"

Yukiko pouted.

She really wanted to give her son a good beating to teach him a lesson. How dare he think he could fight against such a dangerous organization all by himself? He was so arrogant and thought he was Xia Ye!

Ran couldn't talk to Vermouth and Yukiko, so she picked up Conan and headed into the exhibition hall, saying as she went:

"Conan, I won't let you run around unless you tell me what you're going to do. Besides, it's almost lunchtime. How about Natsume and I take you upstairs to eat something delicious?"

"it is good!"

Seeing that he couldn't persuade Ran at all, Conan had no choice but to obediently nod, then pointed to himself:

"Sister Xiaolan, put me down first."

"I can let you go, but if you don't show up again, I'll get rough with you!"

Ran put Conan down and whispered instructions.

"I know!"

Conan watched the tequila on his glasses gradually disappear into the distance. Judging from the speed, it must have been driving. He hadn't brought his skateboard today, so even if he went out now, he wouldn't be able to catch up!

but--

There is still a chance, because the tequila is heading towards Beika Town's 2-chome!

Follow Xiaolan into the exhibition hall.

Conan took out his phone and waved it:

"Sister Xiaolan, the professor called me earlier but I didn't receive the call. I'll call him back!"

"Go~"

Xiaolan waved her hand, telling him to hurry up and go.

"Thank you, Sister Xiaolan!"

After thanking Ran, Conan quickly ran to the side and dialed Professor Agasa's number. Upon hearing Professor Agasa's voice, he immediately gave instructions:

"Doctor, I've found traces of the organization that shrunk me. I've now planted a listening device and a transmitter on one of their members. I know you can monitor their location. Please help me with this!"

"Shinichi, should we call the police?"

Professor Agasa is still very rational. Even though he is very confident in the gadgets he made, he doesn't think Conan can take on the entire criminal organization by himself!

"Being not!"

Conan refused decisively.

I have no idea what he's thinking.

"Doctor, I will be careful. I'm just going to check on things, so don't worry!"

"Okay~"

Dr. Agasa is also easily influenced.

After hearing Conan's explanation, they had no further objections and began preparing to use the equipment in the laboratory to locate the transmitter.

Inside the Paradise Exhibition Hall.

Conan returned to Ran's side.

The two found Kogoro Mouri playing a slot machine, where Natsume was already waiting.

Xiaolan and Xiaye exchanged a glance.

At this moment, the three employees of Full Paradise turned back.

Koji Ueda greeted him with a smile:

"Mr. Mori, Mr. Natsume, Ms. Ran, and Conan, it's already noon. There's a company-sponsored buffet upstairs, let's go up and eat together!"

"it is good!"

Kogoro Mouri immediately stood up. For him, the slot machine, which didn't allow any gambling, wasn't as attractive as the food. He was already hungry anyway, so filling his stomach was the most important thing!

"Then let's go quickly!"

Koji Ueda pulled Kogoro Mouri along and headed towards the stairs not far away, chatting excitedly with him as they walked.

Xia Ye watched coldly from the sidelines.

Hideaki Nakajima was in a good mood because his transaction was complete. Once he retrieved the briefcase from the man in black, he would receive a hefty reward for selling the information, which would allow him to pay off his debt to the underground money lender!

Takeshita Yuuki was filled with anxiety. Although he had completed the operation, he could not rest easy until the bomb killed Nakajima Hideaki, so he remained somewhat distracted.

As for Koji Ueda...

He's the one who's most free today.

Despite his opening remarks, which included mocking Hideaki Nakajima for plagiarizing ideas and teasing Takeshita Hironobu about his girlfriend being stolen, he essentially played himself like a dead man.

However, neither of today's two cases actually had anything to do with him; he was just being sarcastic!

He was chatting carefree with Kogoro Mouri, completely unaware of the complicated feelings of his two colleagues.

...

The lunch buffet was very plentiful.

Even Conan, who was preoccupied with his own thoughts, enjoyed the meal immensely.

Because Professor Agasa sent a message, the transmitter's location tracking has stopped.

Based on the coordinates, he determined that it was a bar called "Cocktail" on the top floor of the Daikoku Building in Beikacho 2-chome.

Now that we know the organization's stronghold...

Conan was no longer in a hurry.

Anyway, you can run away from the monk but not the temple.

It's safer to be well-prepared before conducting an investigation!

in the afternoon.

Xia Ye continued playing various games with Xiao Lan.

They were having a sweet date.

Conan stayed obediently by Kogoro Mouri's side, and secretly contacted Professor Agasa to confirm the location of the transmitter.

What worried him was that the transmitter hadn't been moved since the afternoon.

It's unclear whether the tequila guy spent the whole afternoon drinking at the bar, or if the transmitter fell off his foot.

but--

Dr. Agasa said.

Although the noise in the bar made it impossible to hear the contents of the listening device, it was certain that the organization had not discovered the existence of the listening device and the transmitter.

time flies.

Five p.m.

It was the end of the new game launch event for Full Paradise.

The three employees of Mantendo bid farewell to Kogoro Mouri and Natsume's group, but Hideaki Nakajima and Hironobu Takeshita both claimed that they had other things to do and would not go to get their suitcases first. Only Koji Ueda, who knew nothing about it, came to the front desk with them.

"Xiao Lan, did you have fun?"

Xia Ye gently tucked a strand of Xiao Lan's long hair behind her ear, and asked softly with a doting smile on her face.

"Yes, I'm very happy!"

Xiao Lan glanced at her father and saw that although his face was dark, he didn't stop Xia Ye's intimate actions. So, her face flushed slightly, but she spoke boldly:

"I'm happy as long as you're with me!"

"Cough cough!"

"It's our turn!"

This time, the old father finally couldn't take it anymore.

He could tolerate their intimate actions, since the deed was done anyway, but his daughter's almost heartfelt confession made him very unhappy!

Any father would feel uneasy if his precious daughter was taken by a pig, and then his daughter Xiaolan was showing off her love and showering him with affection right in front of him—wasn't that just irritating?

"Okay!"

Xiaolan curled her lips.

But secretly, he felt a little smug.

hum~

It feels so good to have a man jealous of you!

The group took their stored items, said goodbye to Ueda Koji, and then left the rice wine shop (Zhao's).
