Daily Spy Life in the Detective Conan World

Chapter 1036 Anya's Test
"Uncle Kogoro, where's Conan?" Anya asked.

"That guy, I think he's in the room." The famous detective waved his hand, not taking Anya seriously, and continued to gossip with Natsukawa.

Xia Chuan listened attentively to this.

Anya ran up to the third floor with small steps and immediately activated her ability to listen to her inner voice.

"Mr. Akai told me to be mindful of my identity, but I don't seem to have anything to be concerned about, do I?"

Conan scratched his head. "Every time we solve a case, we use Uncle Kogoro's name. We can't just disappear like Conan, can we?"
But since they investigated my house, could they have already discovered that I've shrunk?

squeak-

The door was opened a crack, and Anya's bright, pale green eyes peeked in.

Their eyes met, and Conan immediately collected his thoughts, putting away the bow-tie voice changer, the retractable shoulder strap, and the watch-shaped tranquilizer dart, and putting on the multi-functional glasses that actually had no prescription whatsoever.

"Ania, how did you get up here?"

I was thinking about something when this little girl came up and started causing trouble.

Anya's heart sank. This kid Conan doesn't take her seriously at all!?
"Conan, with disaster looming, don't you realize you're in the wrong?"

"Huh?" Conan's beady eyes widened.

Although Anya tried very hard to appear serious, her face, combined with those sunglasses, naturally exuded a comedic quality.

Walking down the street, you can almost hear cryptic remarks like "Old buddy is swiping his sunglasses."

"Ania, speak properly!"

Conan's heart skipped a beat, and his voice rose several octaves as he asked, "Did Uncle Natsukawa say something to you?"

Hehe, this guy doesn't know anything.

He still calls Xia Chuan "Uncle" in front of me, as if I don't know his identity.

Sure enough, you are still too young.

Anya was smug about the sense of superiority that came from the information gap.

“I heard from my father today that you seem to have been discovered by some mysterious organization.”

"What!?"

Conan's expression changed drastically. As expected, Natsukawa hadn't told him anything; he had deliberately sent Anya to remind him.

If the information were revealed by Shuichi Akai, Conan might still have a glimmer of hope, but if it came from Natsukawa, there would be no room for escaping it.

The mystery surrounding Natsukawa has deeply penetrated Conan's mind. All the previous events have indicated that Natsukawa has a mysterious information channel that allows him to obtain information about the winery.

Since he said that, it likely means it's inside information from the distillery.

Conan rummaged through drawers and found some snacks, then presented them to Anya with a fawning tone: "Tell me what you heard."

"Since you have asked so sincerely, I will mercifully tell you."

"Say it quickly!"

Anya crossed her arms and put on a fighting look, saying, "That's a little black guy named Gin. Father said this guy might want to be your godfather and is planning to take you back to train you."

What the hell?
godfather?

Conan blinked, bewildered.

"Oh no, not cultivation, it's research."

Anya's eyes flashed with cunning as she voiced Conan's concerns: "Father said that if Mr. Mori takes on a few more cases, you might be exposed."

Although Anya didn't know what Kogoro's uncle's acceptance of the request had to do with your exposure, that's what Father said.

really!

Conan's Adam's apple bobbed as he swallowed the breath that had risen to his throat.

"Thank you, Anya, this news is so important to me."

Conan expressed his gratitude solemnly, offering various snacks and promises as thanks.

Sure enough, Conan was terrified and decided to hide.

"By the way, what has Ai Haibara been up to lately?"

Conan was lost in thought for a moment, then his eyes suddenly lit up. How could he have forgotten about her?

Ai Haibara, codenamed Sherry, is the researcher of APTX4869!

So much time has passed, I wonder how the research on the antidote is progressing.

"Ai Haibara is in the lab."

Anya scratched her pouting lips, thought for a long time, and said, "It seems that Father brought back some research data."

She didn't know much about this. Once Ai Haibara got into a research state, her mind went blank, and she often couldn't see into people's hearts.

Over time, Anya stopped caring about Ai Haibara's thoughts.

Before Conan could say anything more, Ran's voice came through.

The two went downstairs together and arrived at the agency, where Conan discovered that Natsukawa was also there.

Long-awaited guest.

"Uncle Xia Chuan, what brings you here today?"

Xia Chuan raised an eyebrow, his words carrying a hidden meaning, "Of course it's because it's been a long time since I've been here, so I came to see you all!"

The word "you" was emphasized, so it was indeed for me.

Conan, with a fake smile on his face, took a cup of coffee and sat down by himself.

Ran clearly sensed Conan's unusual behavior.

Not just today, but for the past few days, it's been like this. I always feel that little Conan is under tremendous pressure.

He was just a little kid.

Xia Chuan and Anya did not stay long and left quickly.

After everyone left, Ran immediately came over to check on Conan.

"Oh no, I haven't been paying attention to managing my mindset lately, and Xiaolan actually noticed?"

Conan made up a random excuse to brush it off.

Back in his room, Conan silently gazed out the window at Tokyo.

Tokyo appeared peaceful, but he knew that undercurrents were brewing beneath the surface.

Being all alone makes me feel so helpless.

He could choose to ask his parents for help, but that would also put them in danger.

"Damn it, I wish I could see Vermouth again."

Conan felt that his breakthrough might be the other party, but unfortunately, finding the other party was more difficult than finding a needle in a haystack.

“Father, Conan is very scared. He is worried that because of him, Uncle Mori and his parents are being targeted by the liquor company.”

Anya's voice suddenly lowered: "Conan is so pitiful, why don't we help him?"

Sometimes Conan is annoying, but at other times, he's also very loyal.

Moreover, as the leader of the Junior Detective League, I must help the members when they need help.

"You little rascal, don't get involved in adult matters!"

Xia Chuan squatted down and solemnly instructed, "I will make my own decisions regarding Conan. For the sake of our family's future reunion, you must listen to your father."

"Okay, Anya understands!"

The little girl took off her sunglasses and nodded seriously.

For Anya, family is the most important and cherished thing, and she will never allow any problems to arise.

Anya's gains were still very meaningful to Xia Chuan.

It is now largely confirmed that Akai and his son, as well as Conan, have all confirmed that Gin has discovered that Shinichi Kudo has a problem, and that he will likely be investigating Conan's childhood soon.

The reason is simple: with such a large Akai Mary figure right there, Gin would easily suspect that Conan has turned into a child.

Not only him, but also Ai Haibara.
