Keep busy in the world of Detective Conan

Chapter 186: The Sequel to Black, White and Gray (2)

After the combat meeting, Hua Lantian stretched and was about to have some afternoon tea and something to eat in his room when his phone suddenly rang at an inopportune time.

As the saying goes, every message that comes when you're trying to relax isn't necessarily helpful. Helplessly pulling out my phone, I saw the caller ID: "Death God Elementary School Student...!"

His already unhappy expression immediately fell, and he decisively put his phone aside. Hua Lantian then poured himself some tea.

Sure enough, after ringing for a while, the person on the other end of the phone seemed to have given up and didn't continue dialing. Hua Lantian nodded with relief, secretly sighing that Conan was a sensible guy.

But the result was not the same. Conan on the other end of the phone was at Dr. Agasa's house, and he had already come up with a bad idea.

"Doctor, contact Lan Tian. He must have seen it was my number, so he won't answer it. Tell him I'm willing to exchange information. I recently did something to the winery that he doesn't know about, and now I want to cooperate with him on the next step of our plan...!"

Dr. Agasa was stunned. He felt that Shinichi's idea was too good. Hua Lantian ignored him. He was afraid that if he called to talk about this matter, it would be unlikely to succeed. However, he could not bear Shinichi's pleading look, so he had to call Hua Lantian.

The scene turns back to Hua Lantian. He drank a few sips of tea comfortably and enjoyed some delicious snacks. Hua Lantian touched his stomach happily, slumped down on the sofa, staring at the ceiling in a daze. He was going to go home and make dinner for Ayako soon.

However, it was obvious that he was never idle. His phone, which had been unmuted, suddenly remembered that it was Dr. Agasa's exclusive ringtone. Hua Lantian, thinking that it was the doctor telling him about his new invention, answered the call decisively.

"Hello, it's Doctor! Do you have any new inventions you'd like me to help you with...?"

"Ah, hello, it's Blue Sky. Yes, there's a new invention, but I'm not looking for you this time. It's like this, haha, Shinichi, he wants to talk to you about some cooperation. He said he recently did something with the winery that you don't know about, and he wants to tell you the details in person...!"

Dr. Agasa said a little embarrassedly. He didn't expect Hua Lantian to support his invention right away, and he even had to help convey a message to Shinichi, whom he didn't want to pay attention to.

"I don't know about this, there's still cooperation...! Yeah, sure, you can ask him to call me and tell me. Oh, right, let's come for dinner later, and invite Xiao Ai too. Oh, right, why don't we all come together, invite uncle and Xiao Lan too...!"

Hua Lantian pretended to ponder for a moment. He thought Conan just came to show off his success to him, but he didn't expect that he would actually remember to cooperate with him. This kid is teachable.

However, I can't let Conan off easily for disturbing my fun just now. I will teach him a lesson tonight. Let him feel the pain in his buttocks in advance. This is not as simple as sprinkling chili powder or something on his pants.

Soon, Conan called. After Hua Lantian's covert and overt tactics to seize control, the two finally decided that Hua Lantian would be the one to formulate the final plan. Thus, a world was created where only the FBI would be hurt...

That evening, at the Hua residence, the large dining table was once again filled with people. The last time it was this lively was the last time. Hua Lantian served the feast he had carefully prepared: mapo tofu, spicy grilled fish, spicy hot pot...

I treated Conan well, because he is a vegetable lover and also loves spicy food...
