Daily Spy Life in the Detective Conan World

Chapter 201 I'll Serve as a Hostage
The two henchmen reacted quickly, each reaching for their lower backs, their intentions obvious.

However, it was too late to draw his gun at that moment. Conan had already exerted his strength, and the bucket flew out with a "bang".

The two robbers' eyes widened suddenly, unable to understand how a small child could kick such a heavy iron bucket without getting hurt. They only had time to raise their hands to cover their faces.

"Bang! Bang!"

Two sounds rang out in succession, followed by the clanging sound of the bucket hitting the ground.

The first underling was lifted up by the enormous force, spun around in the air, and then collapsed to the ground.

The second brother fared a little better because he had a good brother to deflect the force, and he was just knocked unconscious.

"This toy is interesting." Ai Haibara rested her chin on her hand, not looking at Silver Fox, but focusing all her attention on Conan's shoes.

She had been wondering why the shoes were so big; it turns out they're a technological product.

It seems that Dr. Agasa has strong research capabilities. Perhaps we can discuss the research on Drug A with him in the future.

Speaking of which, besides the research materials I just gave to my sister, I think I accidentally put a research document in a CD that my sister sent me two years ago, which was then mistakenly sent back.

Maybe we can look for it now; we can't start researching from scratch.

As for recent research findings.

There's nothing we can do then. My sister is nowhere to be found; she has no idea where that document was kept.

The only option is to look for research data from two years ago. Although the data is outdated, it's still easier than starting from scratch.

"Conan is amazing!" Ayumi exclaimed, her eyes sparkling as she rested her chin on her hand, her gaze fixed on Conan.

She already liked Conan because of his intelligence, and this scene completely won her over.

They are both intelligent and brave. Let's start being childhood sweethearts now, and get married in a dozen years.

Conan wiped the cold sweat from his forehead; he had just been lucky in that situation.

"It's alright."
"Yuuji, your brother should be upstairs. Let's go check on him."

Conan glanced at the surveillance footage and discovered another young man on the third floor. His appearance matched the photo provided by the client, Yuji Hase, perfectly; he was indeed his brother.

This person was indeed kidnapped to create the original manuscript of Natsume Soseki for the counterfeit money gang.

"it is good!"

Yuji Hase is quite thick-skinned. He was just terrified, but after seeing Conan and Ai Haibara bravely deal with the three of them, he immediately returned to normal and ran to the third floor.

While still feeling overjoyed, he decided to go back to school and promote the junior detective club. They were amazing!

Ai Haibara reached out and picked up the pistol from the ground, weighed it in her hand, and then opened the magazine.

"They have plenty of ammunition; it seems they have a way to get handguns."

She then walked over to the other three men and found pistols on each of them.

Conan glanced at it, then put down his backpack and asked Ai Haibara to put the pistol in his backpack first.

The police hadn't arrived yet, so the handgun had to be confiscated, since he didn't know when these people would wake up.

"Go up and have a look."

Conan walked out of the second-floor room and went straight to the third floor.

The lighting on the third floor was rather dim. Upon entering, you would see a long table covered with bottles and jars.

There were also a few pieces of what looked like steel plates on the table, which should be the master template.

Conan took a closer look and discovered that they were all inks used to make banknotes.

Besides engraving the master plate, they were also adjusting the colors of the banknotes, which looked very professional.

"You're the ones who saved me?" After finishing his conversation with his younger brother, Hase Yuta looked at Conan and the four people behind him with suspicion.

This is too awesome.

Five children managed to subdue four thugs.

Even novels wouldn't dare to write something like this; you'd probably only see this kind of plot in Kamen Rider.

"It's Conan and Ai!"

Ayumi was incredibly excited, as if she were the one who had taken down the counterfeit money gang, and she kept bragging to Yuji Hase's brother.

"Wow, you're amazing! I don't know how to thank you enough." Yuta Hase scratched the back of his head, feeling a little embarrassed. He hadn't expected that he would be rescued by these kids instead of the police when he was in danger.

Reality and imagination are somewhat disconnected, and even a bit outrageous.

"Since you're all kids, I'll give each of you a limited-edition Kamen Rider gold card—"

Yuta Hase is a big fan of Kamen Rider and has a bunch of limited edition cards. Normally, he would never give them away, but the situation is different now.

"Ah—brother, I want one too! You didn't give me any when I asked you for them before!"

"I know, Yuuji has one too."

Genta, Mitsuhiko, and Ayumi's eyes gleamed. They suddenly realized that the danger they were facing was nothing. Compared to Kamen Rider's gold card, the suffering they endured was acceptable.

If possible, let's do it a few more times!

As long as I can get the gold card, no danger matters!
Conan naturally couldn't hear what the three little ones were thinking, otherwise he would have been so angry he'd vomit blood.

I succeeded this time by sheer luck; I might not succeed next time.

"Hey, shouldn't we go downstairs?" Ai Haibara walked up to Conan and nudged his arm. "Those counterfeiters might wake up at any time. Let's go downstairs and tell the police."

"Okay." Conan nodded and waved to the others. "Let's get out of here quickly and report the situation to the police station." His performance won everyone over, and no one voiced any objections. Even Yuta Hase nodded in agreement.

Moreover, he didn't want to stay in this place any longer. He hadn't done anything else during this time except depict Natsume Soseki, and now he felt like vomiting whenever he saw a portrait of Natsume Soseki.

Thankfully Anya wasn't there, otherwise she would have been furious to see this. All the relationships she had cultivated over time were ruined by Conan's kick.

The second floor.

Kijima, the fat man in black who was initially shot in the neck by Conan, slowly got up.

He touched the needle-like pain in his neck and grimaced, "It hurts so much."

"What happened?" Kijima took two steps, wanting to check the surveillance footage, but suddenly tripped over something.

"Huh?" Kijima looked down. He had just woken up and his eyes were still a little blurry. Suddenly, he saw a long, dark thing at his feet and instinctively kicked it.

The long, dark thing (don't imagine it) rolled backward two meters like a spring roll.

"what!"

The one who got kicked was Silver Fox.

She was kicked in the spot where Ai Haibara had just given her anesthesia, and was instantly jolted awake by the pain.

The mournful scream startled Kijima, who instantly realized, "Isn't that the boss? Why is she sleeping here?"

"Big sister, you'll catch a cold sleeping here."

At this point, he hadn't realized what was happening; he just thought the other person was probably too tired and was resting on the spot.

Silver Fox covered his buttocks with one hand and his head with the other, shaking himself. He felt a bit hypoglycemic, and his limbs were weak. He needed Kijima's help to stand up.

After she stood up, she remembered that several uninvited guests had barged into the newspaper office.

She looked around the room, finally fixing her gaze on the security camera.

"Idiot, what are you standing there for? Hurry up and go to the third floor and take care of all those little brats."

And that Yuta Hase, subdue him, don't let him escape.

It was only then that Kijima realized what was happening and discovered his two companions lying on the ground, seemingly lifeless. He glanced at the security camera and hurriedly went upstairs.

Conan's tranquilizer dart had a weak effect, and by this time Kijima had fully recovered.

Silver Fox was injected by Ai Haibara using a launcher; the drug's potency was several times that of Kijima's. Now, she can only remain conscious and has no strength to stand up.

Without Kijima's support, she collapsed once again.

"What's that sound?" Conan was about to go downstairs when he suddenly heard a noise coming from downstairs, and he became a little nervous.

Could it be that those people have woken up?
An ominous premonition surged in Conan's heart. Before he could make a contingency plan, Kijima pushed open the door to the third-floor room.

"Hehe, Yuta Hase, you want to go?"

Kijima's eyes flashed with a fierce light, and he tugged the rope in his hand a few times, causing everyone in the room to back away.

"Damn it! It actually woke up!"

Conan was secretly annoyed; he should have tied all of them up.

I had come up to check on the situation because the police station was right next door, but I didn't expect the fat man in black to wake up so quickly.

It's all his own fault.

Considering that most of the anesthetic injections were given to Uncle Mori, in order to prevent him from being hit too many times and causing health problems, he specifically asked Professor Agasa to reduce the potency of the drug.

It seems I'll have to ask Professor Agasa to enhance the medicine's effects when I get back.

After all, this thing isn't exclusive to Uncle Mori, so the current situation is a bit awkward.

There was nothing in the room that could be used as a "soccer ball"; the only thing that could be kicked was the motherboard on the table.

But the original template was too far away from him; the time it would take to run there would be enough for the fat man in black to grab anyone as a hostage.

"Squat down quietly and don't move, or I won't be polite!"

Kijima picked up Ayumi, who was closest to him, and loosely hung a rope around her neck, clearly threatening her.

He also realized that these children were not ordinary. He might have been ambushed before, but now he had a human shield, and he could let the little girl in front of him withstand any attacks.

Conan's expression darkened slightly as he glanced subtly at Ai Haibara.

Ai Haibara had her hands in her pockets, and her expression was also not very good.

Dr. Agasa only had one tranquilizer dart prepared for her, which had just been used on the woman in black, leaving her with no means of countermeasures.

Why haven't the police arrived yet?

This was the first time Conan had ever so desperately wanted the police to arrive at the scene quickly.

This time was different from usual. Without the police, the seven of them would probably be in grave danger.

Thank goodness Anya didn't come up, otherwise there would have been eight people.

Ok?
He suddenly paused, glanced behind Kijima, and then returned to normal.

"Uncle, let go of Ayumi, I'll be your hostage!" Conan raised his hands, indicating that he would not resist, and slowly walked towards the fat man in black.

Kijima was slightly taken aback, not expecting this child to have such backbone.
