Chapter 724 (4k) Little Corgi returns to the arena
Background: Conan wanted to travel to London, but he could not leave the country due to his identity issues. His recent health condition also prevented him from taking the antidote, so he asked Martin for help.
Thanks to Martin's mercy, after a snap of his fingers, a brand new little Corgi was delivered from the factory.
Because it was a corgi transformed from Kudo Shinichi, it had neither glasses nor a bow tie. Those equipment were left at the bottom of the lake by Conan.
"Ah! Ahhhh? (What's going on? Why are you turning me into a dog? What's the point of turning me into a dog!)"
"Great Detective, do you know that the plastic cage for pets is also called a pet airline box? Then guess why it is called an airline box? Well, I have Googled it. Most airlines can check in pets. At that time, you will be placed in the luggage compartment with your luggage, facing life-threatening conditions such as high temperature, low temperature, lack of oxygen, and impact..."
Martin turned the phone over and faced the little Corgi to show him the search results.
"Ouch!..."
"Just tell me if this is a solution, right? As long as I can get you out of the country, why would you need a bicycle?" Martin said, "By the way, I have forcibly preserved your state, and you will not change back tomorrow."
"Woof! Ugh—Woof!"
"Yes, I did it on purpose. After all, I am the cover star, so how can I only appear once?"
When the little Corgi was about to continue complaining, his body suddenly became lighter and Martin's face moved farther and farther away from him.
"I haven't seen Shinichi in corgi form for a long time." Xiaolan picked it up and said, "This form looks best to me."
"This is the little corgi." Miyano Akemi also came closer to observe: "I have only seen the photo of Martin before."
Xiaolan: "Yes, photos! Let's take pictures, Miss Mingmei!"
The little Corgi was lifted up and clamped his hind legs tightly together, becoming a plaything for the two women. However...feeling the soft touch from behind, the little Corgi's ears drooped, and it felt like it wasn't all bad.
Then, with his eyes slightly narrowed, he noticed that Huiyuan Ai was looking at him with disgust: "Pervert."
When Mao Lilan and Miyano Akemi had taken enough photos, the little corgi that was released raised its head and gave up struggling: "Woo-woo-ah? Aaah, aaah? (Are you really going to do this? Check me in as a pet, and then turn me back into a pet when you get to London?)"
Martin smiled and said nothing.
The little Corgi sensed the danger: "Woof!? (Will you change me back?)"
Martin still said nothing.
The little Corgi panicked: "Woof woof woof woof woof! Woof woof! (You will change me back, right!)"
Martin didn't answer it. After all, whether it was a positive or negative answer, it would not make the little Corgi more panicked than the current feeling of suspense.
The cry of the little corgi once again attracted Mao Lilan's puzzled look, and then she remembered something: "The plan to go to London is to leave in three days. Isn't it a bit early to turn Shinichi into a corgi now?"
If a case happens during these three days, we will have to resort to the "Corgi Detective" drama.
"Morning? Xiaolan, you should be worried about not having enough time." Martin showed her his phone with ill intentions, "If you want to bring your pet on board, you need to provide the airline you plan to buy the ticket for with a small animal vaccination certificate and an animal quarantine certificate. These two certificates will be used to apply for the Small Animal Transportation Application Form. You must complete the application before boarding to bring the great detective on board."
"Of course, these tasks are left to you, Xiaolan. Remember not to buy foldable airline suitcases, otherwise the great detective will be crushed into a great detective sauce by other luggage."
Only then did Mao Lilan realize how troublesome it was to get Kudo Shinichi on the plane.
The three days I thought I had free time suddenly became tight because I didn't know how efficient the airline was in processing the application, so I had to get the first two certificates as quickly as possible. Mao Lilan was already feeling anxious because of the time constraints.
Of course, she would not blame Martin, so her eyes of complaint and disgust fell on the little Corgi.
"Ah... (Do you blame me?)"
"There's no bow to serve as a translator this time." This time, Mouri Ran realized this. Conan's bow voice changer and other props sank into the lake when he turned into Kudo Shinichi. This time, there is no translator attached like the last time when he turned into a corgi.
"Even if I want to get Shinichi's opinion during this period, I don't know what Shinichi wants to express." For example, whether Shinichi wants to eat or drink water, whether he wants to go to the toilet, etc.
"There's a translator!" Dr. Agasa on the side realized that it was finally his chance to show off, and hurriedly brought out a prototype of the bow-shaped animal translator.
Referring to the translator that came with the little corgi, the translator that Professor Agasa imitated still had many deficiencies in performance. For example, Bunny always carried a first-generation prototype translator with him, but he would not normally turn it on because the translator would translate "Trainer, I like it" into "Coach, it's delicious." Bunny himself was confused when he heard it.
What Dr. Agasa took out now was the second-generation prototype made after communicating with Dr. Shinonome. After it was completed, he was worried about not having experimental subjects, and then the little Corgi came to his door.
The little Corgi became alert and could not wait to get the translator and started to scold Martin. Although Martin could understand his direct barking, he felt upset when others could not understand him, especially since the final right of interpretation of the result of the keyboard battle was in Martin's hands.
Just as Dr. Agasa handed the translator to Mao Lilan, Martin suddenly spoke up: "Why should the great detective have the right to express his opinion? Isn't nodding yes or shaking head OK the greatest kindness to him?"
“Woof woof woof woof! Woof woof woof!”
Although the little Corgi strongly disagreed with Martin's statement, Mao Lilan suddenly realized and was inspired after listening to it - yes, why should she be so nice to him?
So under Dr. Agasa's pitying gaze, Xiaolan put the bow away and would put it on the little Corgi when necessary.
……
Because various certificates had to be processed, naturally, this troublesome dog was taken away by Xiaolan.
After Mao Lilan left, Miyano Akemi stood behind the sofa, leaning against the backrest and approaching Martin: "Martin, even Shiho and I are going to London, and it's not good to have that lady who I don't know travel with us?"
"That uncle insisted on taking on so much responsibility just to save face. That's not what I meant." Bald Qiang Martin spread his hands and shirked responsibility: "Sister Mingmei, your hometown is England, right? It would be nice to take this opportunity to go back and visit your hometown, right?"
"Although it's my hometown, I've lived in the countryside of Japan since I can remember. Shiho has been in the organization since she was born..." Miyano Akemi knew that their parents had lived in the UK, but she had no idea about it. In short, it was impossible for her to feel 'at home' in the UK.
"Go visit. Maybe Sister Mingmei has some relatives there, aunts and uncles or something."
"Seventh aunt...eighth aunt..." Miyano Akemi was stunned, then frowned and recalled, as if there was really some relative unit that was about to emerge from her childhood memories.
Haibara Ai saw her sister's thoughtful look, and she knew that Martin could know some things through information from other worlds. Could it be that her family really had some relatives?
But even if there are relatives, relatives who have never met... Wait. Huihara Ai glanced in the direction of Kudo's house next door. Martin always called that person his cousin, and he also said that he wanted that person to go to London... Could it be that...
"Pfft!" Haibara Ai was amused by her own guess when she thought that once her guess was correct, the problem that was bothering her would seem to become a funny problem.
Miyano Akemi's thoughts were interrupted by her sister's laughter. She looked over in surprise: "What's wrong with Shiho?"
"I remembered something happy." Huiyuan Ai lowered her head, tidied the hair beside her ears, stood up and left: "If I go to England, my research will be delayed again. Now I have to work a little longer."
I accidentally gave away the spoiler~ Martin thought lightly as he watched Haibara Ai run away.
"Ah, Shiho ran away." Maybe it was because of the bond between sisters, but Miyano Akemi looked at Haibara Ai's running back for a while, and suddenly thought of the person next to her: "Come to think of it, if Hideki is taken with him, he will also face the same identity troubles as Kudo-kun, right?"
"Sister Mingmei, do you want to check in your cousin as well?" Martin was eager to try: "Is a Caucasian or a Bull Terrier better? Or a German Shepherd?"
"Hideki's words are more like those of a cat, right? He pretends to be cool, but he's actually quite funny." Miyano Akemi thought about it seriously, then shook her head: "It's too troublesome to check in an animal, so let him check in himself."
In the blink of an eye, four days passed.
Dr. Agasa and Kogoro Mori each drove a car and everyone met at the airport.
After greeting each other, Kogoro Mori counted the number of people.
"One, two, three, four... Didn't they say that someone's cousin was staying at the detective's house? Why can't I see him?" asked Kogoro Mouri.
Today, Martin transformed into a firefighter in the professional category, and then changed back into ordinary clothes. Martin shrugged: "I don't know, anyway, I have been notified."
"How did you notify them?"
"I was standing in front of the great detective's door and shouting inside."
"Was that person home at the time?"
"I think he can."
"If you say that, then he's gone!" Maori Kogoro was speechless: "Do you really want him to come?"
"He will come." Martin was confident.
Looking around, he found that Kogoro Mouri had originally planned to take nine people with him, but Conan was sick and had to stay at home, Kudo Shinichi was busy with a case and couldn't come, and Martin didn't even notify his cousin, so in the end there were only six people.
Oh, and there's a dog.
"I'm going to check you in, Shinichi." Xiaolan said to the listless little Corgi in the airline box, "Be good and don't cause trouble, okay?"
"Hey, is that the dog you had before? Didn't you say you were going to sell it?" Kogoro Mouri asked Martin while looking at the little Corgi in the airline box.
Of course, he had asked Xiaolan this question three days ago, but Xiaolan was resentful of Maori Kogoro for not inviting Kisaki Eri along, and she had not been looking at Maori Kogoro in a good light these days and had not answered the question.
(Actually, I didn’t have a good excuse, so I just pretended to be angry and kept silent.)
"Is it sold? I remembered it wrong and thought it was stewed." Martin himself had long forgotten how he had fooled Maori Kogoro before, and then his eyes rolled: "Yeah, yes, it was sold... But this dog is unlucky, people die wherever it goes, and the owner couldn't stand it anymore, so he sent it back to me."
"People are dying wherever he goes!" Maori Kogoro was shocked: "Such a scary dog! Isn't it the god of plague? But... why does this comment sound familiar?"
Kogoro Maori pinched his chin and thought.
After thinking for a while, he couldn't think of anyone he knew who was evaluated in this way. He gave up thinking and asked, "Why not just take it back and keep it? Why bring it to London? Wouldn't it be better to leave it with the doctor and let the little boy with glasses take care of it?"
"There's nothing we can do. Shinichi likes London very much. As soon as he heard about going to London, he started clamoring to go with him. If we don't let him go, he will cry, make a fuss, or even commit suicide." Martin looked down at the cage in Mao Lilan's hand with a mischievous look.
"It likes London too?" Maori Kogoro said suspiciously, "It's the same as that little detective. You really know how to name things. You didn't make any mistakes at all."
"Of course." Martin put his hands on his hips.
Maori Kogoro: "But shouldn't you handle the vaccination and certificate issuance yourself? Why did you give it to Xiaolan?"
"I can't help it. 'Shinichi' isn't close to me. He's only close to Xiaolan."
As he said that, Martin inserted his index finger through the gap in the aviation box, and the little Corgi took a bite of his finger without hesitation. However, Martin withdrew his hand quickly, leaving the little Corgi with a mouthful of loneliness.
"Look, it's chasing me and biting me, so I can only leave it to Xiaolan."
Martin winked at Mao Lilan, who pretended to be dissatisfied, closed her eyes and turned her head away: "Humph."
Kogoro Mouri also discovered in the past few days that the dog was unusually obedient to his daughter. From what he saw in the past few days, as long as Xiaolan gave an order, the dog would complete it. If told to go east, it would not go west. If told to pick up slippers, it would pick up slippers. Its obedience rate was so high that it seemed like a spirit.
"Even this little dog knows that you are not a good person." Maori Kogoro laughed, and then looked at the little corgi in the airline box: "But compared to the last time, it has been half a year, right? Why does it feel that this dog is still the same size as before, and hasn't grown any taller?"
"That's normal." Martin said without thinking, "There are people who are still in the first grade of elementary school decades later, and they haven't grown a centimeter in height."
The little Corgi in the airline box: “…”
"Hey kid, look, your dog doesn't even get close to you, and it likes my Xiaolan very much. Just sell the dog to me at a lower price." Kogoro Mouri was still dreaming of "having a detective dog to help him solve cases with even greater ease."
"Okay, don't even talk about selling it. We are brothers. I'll give you the dog!" Martin agreed readily, "But I won't help you find the dog if you lose it."
"It won't get lost." Hearing that it was a free detective dog, Maori Kogoro was full of confidence: "After we get off the plane, I will buy a thick dog leash and tie it tightly."
Little Corgi: “…”
