Establishing the Teyvat Organization in KO

Chapter 146 Another Detective

Hearing Conan's question, Takeuchi was stunned for a moment. Although he was a little surprised that a child was asking the question, he still answered seriously:

"It wasn't delivered today. Actually, I'm a little surprised. Previously, these letters were basically delivered in the morning, but I didn't receive them today."

"Could it be that the criminal has given up?" Kogoro Mouri guessed.

Conan thought it was unlikely. After all, from what Editor-in-Chief Takeuchi said before, he knew that reporter Charlotte was not scared at all by these threatening letters. In other words, the criminal did not achieve the purpose of sending these letters, so he would definitely not give up halfway.

"It shouldn't be possible. Charlotte has no intention of stopping her investigation plan, so..." Takeuchi Koichi's idea was obviously the same as Conan's.

"Then why didn't you send the threatening letter today?" Kogoro Mouri couldn't figure it out. Did the other party forget about it today?

"Will the other party send the threatening letter directly to Miss Charlotte's residence?"

At this time, Conan put forward a conjecture.

When Takeuchi heard this, his eyes widened and he said in astonishment, "This is very possible! No, I have to go find Charlotte right away."

As he said this, Takeuchi Koichi stood up.

"Detective Maori, could you please come with me? If the other party really sends a threatening letter to Charlotte's residence, I may need your help then."

"Ah? Of course." Kogoro Mouri agreed without much thought. After all, this was the only commission he had at the moment.

Not long after, Takeuchi Koichi, Mori Kogoro and others stood in front of an apartment building in Haido Town.

Looking at the building in front of him, Maori Kogoro couldn't help but glance at Xiaolan next to him: "Really, Xiaolan, why are you here? The client just called me, the famous detective."

Mao Lilan: "What's the matter? I'm worried about Miss Charlotte too. Besides, if the other party doesn't send a threatening letter and intends to take direct action, you may still need me to protect you."

"Then why did this little kid follow us?" Kogoro Mouri shifted his gaze downwards.

Conan smiled ingratiatingly at Uncle Maori and said, "Maybe I can help."

Please, if I don't come, how can you find the criminal by yourself?

Kogoro Mouri rolled his eyes, obviously not taking Conan's words to heart.

Forget it, since we are here, let’s just go together.

Kogoro Mouri gave some final instructions to Xiaolan and Conan, and they followed Koichi Takeuchi's footsteps and came to the door of Room 4 on the 406th floor of the apartment building.

He rang the doorbell, but no one answered for a long time.

It was visibly that Takeuchi Koichi was becoming increasingly nervous.

"Strange, why is there no one here? It's a day off today, and Charlotte usually stays at home to organize documents." Takeuchi Koichi said anxiously.

After hearing what Takeuchi Koichi said, Maori Kogoro and the others also became worried about Charlotte's condition.

Finally, when Kogoro Mori suggested banging on the door, Koichi Takeuchi agreed in a hurry. The two looked at each other and prepared to bang on the door together.

"Editor-in-chief, what are you doing?"

Fortunately, the sudden female voice stopped the actions of Kogoro Mori and Koichi Takeuchi in time, which also allowed Charlotte to keep the door of her home.

But Charlotte's shout was a little late. Kogoro Mouri and Koichi Takeuchi were unable to stop and bumped into the door.

Although they relieved the force in time, the collision was still severe. Maori Kogoro and Takeuchi Koichi both held their foreheads and felt a little dizzy.

Mao Lilan hurried forward and supported her father worriedly. Charlotte also hurried forward to show her concern about the situation of her editor-in-chief.

Conan was the only kid left with nothing to do, so he began to observe the person involved in the threatening letter incident.

To be honest, the image of this Miss Charlotte was somewhat different from the image of a reporter who was not afraid of power and was brave enough to expose the truth. She looked a little bit unstable and had a lively and eccentric personality. It was hard to tell that she was someone who could write such a sharp article.

"Charlotte, where did you go just now?" After taking a break and feeling much better, Editor-in-Chief Takeuchi quickly turned to look at Charlotte and asked.

"Ah? When I was sorting out the investigation materials just now, I heard some sneaky noises at the door. I opened the door and found a stranger stuffing a letter into my mailbox. When he saw me open the door suddenly, he lost his grip and dropped the letter. I picked it up and chased after him." As she spoke, Charlotte took out the white envelope she had been holding.

"Charlotte! How many times have I told you to be careful, be careful, but you ignored my words! How can you just chase after suspicious people? What if there is danger?!..." When Mr. Takeuchi heard what Charlotte said, he ignored the threatening letter for a moment and started to lecture Charlotte on safety issues again.

"..."

Conan couldn't stop looking at Editor-in-Chief Takeuchi, so he stepped forward, took the envelope from Charlotte's hand, and began to examine it.

Charlotte's attention was obviously not on the envelope, so she let go when Conan took the letter.

Conan checked the envelope and found that the letter was sealed with glue and had not been opened yet.

He carefully tore open the envelope and took out the letter paper inside. Sure enough, the material of both the envelope and the letter paper was the same as the three threatening letters that Koichi Takeuchi got from the detective agency.

Just as he was about to open the letter, Conan speechlessly felt two more heads beside him. Kogoro Mouri and Ran Mouri also curiously came to Conan's side.

Although he was speechless, Conan didn't say much. He paused for a moment and continued to open the letter.

All I saw on the letter paper was: This is the last warning!!!

The last three exclamation marks were bright red, as if they were written in blood.

When Mao Lilan saw this suddenly, her body leaned back slightly in surprise.

Without giving Conan a chance to show his affection, Charlotte supported Mao Lilan in time before Conan took action and comforted her: "Don't be afraid, this is not blood, it's just written with red paint."

Conan smelled the letter and found that there was indeed no smell of blood. Charlotte was right.

He looked at Charlotte inquiringly. How did she know from such a distance that this was not blood? Conan put this question in his mind for the time being.

At this time, Koichi Takeuchi finally said enough, let Charlotte go, and introduced Charlotte to Kogoro Mouri and the others.

When Charlotte heard Editor-in-Chief Takeuchi say that Kogoro Mori and his team were detectives he had specially commissioned to solve the threatening letter incident, she smiled a little awkwardly.

"What's wrong? Is there any problem?" Takeuchi Koichi noticed Charlotte's unnatural expression and asked in confusion.

Charlotte hesitated for a moment and replied in a low voice: "Well... Actually, I also found a detective to solve this matter..."

"Ah?" Takeuchi Koichi opened his eyes wide in surprise.
