Conan: Start from Lucky Three

Chapter 5: Speculation and Exploration on Triggering "Three Choices"

When Xiaolan heard what Tachibana Shizuka said, she immediately thought of Kudo Shinichi who had disappeared in a flash.

According to Conan's later explanation, Kudo Shinichi left because of some urgent case, but no matter how urgent it was, there should always be time to talk, right?
What's more, you, Kudo Shinichi, don't have time to stay and talk, but do you have time to "care" about Shizuka Tachibana who is defusing the bomb?

This wave is called killing people and destroying their hearts.

The kind-hearted Xiaolan naturally would not tell Conan that Shizuka Tachibana asked her to "bang bang" and punch Kudo Shinichi twice. In fact, Xiaolan, whose teeth were itching, really wanted to punch Kudo twice.

Conan was indeed anxious, and immediately wanted to ask Ran what Shizue Tachibana had entrusted her with.

Even though Conan's emotional intelligence is worrying, he knows how much it will add to the relationship between a man and a woman when they face huge danger together and overcome it hand in hand in such a confined space.

It is said that Qingmei is not as good as Tianjiang. Isn’t it because she experienced too much with Tianjiang in a short period of time that led to Qingmei’s complete failure?

Conan's plan was very good. Under normal circumstances, Xiaolan might not be able to resist Conan's coaxing, but this time it won't work.

Because Xiaolan still has Yuanzi with her.

Miss Yuanzi is not the type to spoil her children. To be more precise, all children are equal in Yuanzi.

The garden does not treat them as children, but it also does not give them special treatment as children.

Seeing that Conan was making Ran feel awkward, Sonoko stepped forward and said, "Hey, Ran, don't worry about that brat. Let's talk about business!"

This time, Sonoko and Xiaolan didn't just come to the hospital to visit the patient, they also planned to invite Shizuka Tachibana to a party in a few days.

"A party of the Rex band?" There was a confused look in Tachibana Shizuka's eyes. He only received the more important part of the memory of his original body.

For him, the stars of Conan World are just an unimportant part.

However, Tachibana Shizuka still had to sigh. She was worthy of being the jewel in the crown of the Suzuki Group. She could easily participate in such underground gatherings of celebrities and even bring her friends along.

Japanese conglomerates are so terrifying.

"Huh? Tachibana-san, don't you know Rex? They are the hottest popular band right now!" When Sonoko found out that Tachibana Shizuka had indeed never heard of Rex, she felt a sense of mission to "preach".

She had no bad intentions, she just wanted to help her new classmate, Tachibana Shizuka, keep up with fashion trends.

Sonoko picked up the newspaper in the ward, opened the entertainment section and found that the headline on the front page was indeed the Rex band.

So she showed the newspaper in her hand to Tachibana Shizuka: "Look, this is a photo of the Rex band!"

"Hmm," Tachibana Shizuka nodded thoughtfully. You know what, he actually had some impression of this photo.

In a brand new world, there is only one possibility that can make an impression on Tachibana Shizuka.

That is, the Rex band is very likely related to an incident in the plot of "Detective Conan".

Or rather, the incident happened within their band.

Ever since he was admitted to Beika General Hospital, Tachibana Shizuka had been mulling over the triggering mechanism and frequency of his cheat. During his week in the hospital, his cheat hadn't been triggered at all, meaning the chances of triggering "Lucky Three Picks" were low.

Considering that the first time Tachibana Shizuka triggered the "three choices" was in the M1 movie, perhaps the original plot is the key to triggering the "three choices"?

Then the question arises again, if the key to triggering "three choices" is the original plot, then is it the original characters that are the key to triggering "three choices", or is it the original events that are the key to triggering "three choices"?
After being discharged from the hospital and preparing to go home, Tachibana Shizuka originally planned to find an opportunity to get involved in an event in the original work to verify his guess.

But unexpectedly, he met Mihua Hu Baoyi, who came as a timely rain to Didan.

Sonoko, she's a good person indeed! She brought the matter to him so smoothly.

"Then I'll be honored to accept your invitation." Tachibana Shizuka agreed without hesitation, and then asked Xiaolan, "By the way, will Maori-san be there too?"

"Of course, Ran will be there that day too!" A hint of understanding flashed in Sonoko's eyes, and Tachibana Seiji did not hide his affection for Xiaolan at all.

Although now is not the time to launch a general attack, Tachibana Shizuka should at least let Xiaolan and the people around her understand his feelings.

It's impossible that when the time comes to launch a general attack, not many people know his intentions, and the charge will feel very abrupt, right?
Sonoko, who realized Tachibana Shizuka's feelings, was still enthusiastic, but not as passionate as at the beginning.

Sonoko's change also made Tachibana Seiji feel relieved. To be honest, he really couldn't cope with Sonoko's overly passionate enthusiasm.

This level is pretty good now, and you can definitely treat him as a warm friend.

As for Conan standing aside, his jealous alarm was about to explode in his heart.

Following Xiaolan to the hospital did not relieve his curiosity at all. Instead, he discovered that someone was trying to steal his house while he was away!
Tolerable or unbearable!
But no matter how much he couldn't bear it, it was useless because Kudo Shinichi just couldn't show up, and Conan's identity couldn't do much.

Well. Not being able to do too much doesn’t mean you can’t do anything, so Conan plans to follow Xiaolan closely during this period of time and not let his innocent childhood sweetheart fall into the trap of the bad guys!

"Oh, right, Maori-san!" Tachibana Shizuka secretly observed Conan's ever-changing expressions, and then suddenly spoke to Xiaolan:
"I'm a little embarrassed to say this, because I haven't been to school for almost a week. Could you please spare some time to help me make up for it?
Otherwise, if I go back to school like this, I’m afraid I won’t be able to keep up with the school progress.”

"Oh, okay! Of course no problem." When Xiaolan heard what Tachibana Shizuka said, she agreed without saying a word.

What is a student's job? Studying.

The reason given by Tachibana Shizuka was simply impeccable. Conan couldn't find any excuse to "help" refuse, not to mention Xiaolan who was always willing to help others.

The two agreed to go to the library to study together on Sunday, which was tomorrow, and do some extra lessons. Conan could only stare blankly at the sidelines.

"No, I can't just watch them being alone together like this!" Conan activated his useful brain and thought frantically.

It is obviously not advisable to mess up directly, because Xiaolan is likely to regard him as an ignorant child. If this is done, Conan and Xiaolan may become more distant.

What about chance encounters?
At this time, Conan finally remembered those "little friends" in school whom he disliked. It turned out that even an iron nail has its own uses!

At this moment, Conan was sincerely grateful that he had met three overly enthusiastic elementary school students.

　It's a little late. When I opened my eyes, it was already past eleven o'clock. It's outrageous.
