Daily Spy Life in the Detective Conan World

Chapter 884 Take action tonight
Xia Chuan sighed and decided to reduce the frequency with which Anya watched TV. He was certain that there was no such plot in Spy Bond or Kamen Rider. He guessed she had been watching some international channel, where Qiao Feng was indeed quite popular at that time.

But what the heck is fish meat?

"Please don't be shy, everyone. There are still many dishes to come. You've worked hard all afternoon, so you should replenish your energy."

After Xia Chuan finished speaking, everyone picked up their chopsticks.

"Speaking of which, Mr. Iwanaga said that if we can solve the coded puzzle he set, he will reimburse us for our travel, accommodation, and food expenses."

"What?"

Kogoro Mouri looked completely bewildered, with a piece of seaweed still stuffed in his mouth, and asked indistinctly, "How come I didn't know about this?"

"Hehe, you would have heard it if you had drunk less."

The son-in-law complained, but he also paid the price with a slap on the face.

"It was Anya's suggestion, and the head of the tourism department quickly agreed. What do you think, Father? Doesn't Anya have a real talent for business?"

"That would be wonderful."

Before coming to Poseidon Island, Xia Chuan had already investigated the situation here. This was indeed a Conan movie, but it didn't seem very good. He didn't remember much about it, but it didn't matter. The main theme should be the female pirate's treasure. Judging from the tourism section chief's heavy promise, the other party was probably close to being the mastermind.

However, judging from Anya's behavior, Iwanaga does have a problem, otherwise she wouldn't have made those demands.

"Mr. Mori, it seems our chance to get a free trip this time depends on you!"

"Do not worry."

Kogoro Mouri picked his teeth while laughing loudly with his head tilted back.

His mouth stretched to his ears, the curve resembling the open mouth of a shark. "Don't worry, I've got everything covered."

"But if that's the case, shouldn't we... hehehehe."

Xia Chuan immediately waved for people to bring out wine and dishes.

An hour later, Kogoro Mouri, completely drunk, was carried back to his room by Ran.

She didn't really want her dad to drink so much, but the situation was special this time. After all, Xia Chuan had invited them on a trip, and she couldn't lose face.

I just dropped my dad off at his room, but when I turned around, I found that Conan had disappeared.

"Hey, Sonoko, have you seen Conan?"

Ran and Sonoko shared a room, while Makoto Kyogoku, Conan, and Kogoro Mouri shared another. Ran felt a sudden emptiness when she didn't see Conan.

They said they'd keep a close eye on the other person, but they disappeared in the blink of an eye.

"Oh, why bother with that little brat? Come and see the swimsuit I bought when I came back, isn't it pretty?"

Sonoko busied herself pulling Ran along to admire her new fashion collection.

She was wearing a revealing three-piece lingerie set, the light blue and white colors of which matched the ocean perfectly, especially since the nearby sea was called the Azure Sea, with its crystal-clear waters that complemented the colors beautifully.

The azure sea unfolds its gentle embrace, the waves roll like silver flowers, a scene of unparalleled beauty.

My best friend has great taste, but unfortunately she's still a young and inexperienced girl with an average figure. If she had two more years to develop and grow up to resemble her older sister and mother, she would definitely be a beautiful sight to behold.

"It's really beautiful, but we still need to search for treasure tomorrow."

Xiao Lan had a bad feeling.

"Oh well, it's all on the island anyway, so close to the beach. Wearing a bikini while searching for treasure won't hurt. I've already prepared one for you too."

"Dang Dang Dang~"

As if by magic, Sonoko pulled out an orange-red bikini from behind her back. Apart from the different color and pattern, it was exactly the same as the one she was wearing.

Cool and sexy.

"what!"

Xiaolan blushed.

Seeing others wear it is one thing, but wearing it yourself is another, especially after knowing that Shinichi was coming, she became even more shy.

"Hehehe, didn't Conan say that Shinichi Kudo will arrive no later than tomorrow morning? Don't you want to show off in front of him?"

As the saying goes, to win a man's heart, you must first make him desire your body.

"Where did this fallacy come from? Don't always learn these nonsensical things."

"This isn't nonsense, it's the truth! My mom taught me this. I'll wear this to meet Ah Zhen tomorrow and make him bleed from his nose!"

"Ahahahaha——"

With her hands in her pockets, Yuanzi laughed loudly, looking like a cunning and wicked demon, her wild laughter carrying for miles.

Xiaolan could hardly bear to look at her. This best friend was nothing like a lady from a respectable family. Compared to her sister, they were completely different styles.

However, she does resemble Tomoko Suzuki, except that her mother is more dignified and reserved.

While Sonoko was still feeling smug, Ran quietly slipped out of the house and ran off to find Conan.

In a newly opened room at the hotel, Conan looked at the experimental antidote APTX4869 in his hand with a very serious expression.

"Are you sure you're taking it without a cold? This might affect its efficacy, the data might not be good, and there's a possibility of greater drug resistance later on."

Ai Haibara crossed her arms and continued expressionlessly, "It's a bit disrespectful to Gin to take the antidote just because Ran missed you."

"What can I do? I've already agreed." Conan sighed.

"Never mind, let's eat first."

He took a deep breath, as if he had made up his mind.

Just as the medicine was about to be taken, Ai Haibara suddenly reached out to stop her.

Conan looked at her with a puzzled expression.

"Never mind, you eat this first."

"what is this?"

In Ai Haibara's hand was a capsule that was half blue and half red, about the same size as the experimental antidote, only different in color.

"Cold medicine."

"what?"

"It's a drug that can make you catch a cold quickly, but it's quite potent. If used in conjunction with an experimental antidote, it should be able to maximize the antidote's potential."

Ai Haibara finally took it out.

In fact, she had developed this thing a long time ago, just to maximize the effectiveness of the experimental antidote.

I originally intended to use verbal provocation to dissuade Conan from growing bigger, since the Black Organization obviously wouldn't be involved in this situation, which would be a bit of a waste.

However, Conan remained steadfast.

Since that's the case, she had no choice but to take it out.

"Thank you, Haibara. Without you, I wouldn't have any hope of growing bigger."

"Enough with the nonsense, let's eat."

Ai Haibara looked up at Conan with a haughty air, a slight smile playing on her lips.

She drank the chicken soup because it felt really good to be recognized.

She never experienced this when she was in an organized setting. Gin and Vermouth only pushed her hard, threatening her with her sister's safety to speed up her research. The lack of emotional feedback resulted in Ai Haibara's consistently low efficiency, and even her mind wasn't as sharp.

If Gin and Vermouth had praised her every day, or let her sister go earlier, the APTX4869 longevity version might have been released long ago!

After a long while, there was no sound.

"Um, that."

"Hmm?" Ai Haibara frowned and turned around.

Conan was startled by the frown, but still forced himself to say awkwardly, "Why don't you wait for me outside the room first? After all, if I want to grow bigger, I need to take off my clothes first."

"I am a researcher, and right now you are just a test subject to me. Do you really think I would be interested in a test subject's body?"

"That's true, but you should go out first. If it really doesn't work, I'll tell you about how it feels to get bigger later."

Conan is thick-skinned, but Shinichi Kudo is thin-skinned. Shinichi Kudo, who is about to turn ten years older, says he can't accept that a girl would see his genitals.

Of course, if it's Xiaolan, that's a different story.

Ai Haibara scoffed dismissively.

(￣_,￣)
"boom!"

Conan breathed a sigh of relief as the door slammed shut.

"Such a proud and aloof personality, but it's alright. Just say a few nice words later. That's just how Ai Haibara is, it's not a big deal."

Following Ai Haibara's instructions, Conan first took cold medicine.

In less than a minute, my vision started to blur, I could clearly feel my forehead getting hotter, my nose was stuffed with cotton, my voice was hoarse as if it were wrapped in sandpaper, my limbs felt heavy as if they were filled with lead, and even breathing was accompanied by a burning, dull pain.

"This medicine is incredibly effective."

Without time to complain, he immediately stuffed the experimental antidote into his mouth.

Outside.

As soon as Ai Haibara closed the door, she suddenly noticed a little girl standing against the wall, who was slightly shorter than her.

"Why are you here?"

When did Anya follow us? Neither she nor Conan noticed. Could she have already heard about our conversation?
"Well, I'm just browsing around."

Anya walked slowly away, hands behind her back, expressionless, whistling.

Looking at Anya's back, or more accurately, staring at the camera held in her hands behind her back, Ai Haibara silently frowned.

"Damn Ai Haibara, otherwise I could have filmed Conan growing bigger and secretly sent it to Ran-neechan. It would have absolutely blown Ran's mind."

If Xia Chuan heard this, he would only shake his head.

He didn't know if Ran's jaw would drop from shock, but Conan and Shinichi Kudo's jaws would definitely be knocked off.

After all, the two had bathed together more than once.
"Isn't it too hasty to start tonight?"

As Anya walked, a sudden thought struck her, and a rough male voice entered her mind.

"I don't know why, but the client is in a hurry and insists that we take action tonight."

“But we know nothing about Xia Chuan. The client offered such a high price for us to take action, so either he has a very special identity or he is very powerful. We should test him first.”

“It’s no use talking to me unless you don’t want this commission. We need this bounty more than the countless treasures on Poseidon Island, otherwise we’ll be starving.”

The conversation ended, though some thoughts could still be heard. For example, both men seemed to be leaders, and they were both thinking about how to keep the bounty for themselves after killing Xia Chuan.

"too horrible."

Anya looked around but couldn't find the room from which the whispers were coming from.

"We'd better hurry back and inform Father and Mother."

Not long after being taken hostage by Binga, Anya became much more vigilant. Instead of choosing to be a lone hero, she ran downstairs.

"Father, Mother, something terrible has happened!"

The door was pushed open forcefully, and then slammed shut again.

"What happened? Has Master been captured by a monster again?"

Anya didn't understand the joke and skipped over it: "I just went to peek at Conan turning into a giant, but Haibara found out."

"This is no big deal."

Ai Haibara has already told Conan about wanting to grow bigger. It can only be said that everyone has the right to choose what they want to do. As long as it doesn't involve Natsukawa, Natsukawa won't interfere.

"After that, I was going back to my room when I overheard someone plotting to harm my father. Although I only heard it, it was definitely the same group of people from that afternoon."

Anya spoke with absolute certainty.

"Are they staying at a hotel too?"

Xia Chuan frowned, wondering to himself what was strange.

Frank told him after his investigation that there had been no group of people checking into the hotel together on Poseidon Island in the past few days. He had investigated the identities of many people and had not yet found any such groups of people.

How did these people, who suddenly appeared, manage to evade Frank's investigation?

"Why don't we strike first? It'll be easier to ask questions later if we have any doubts."

Joel didn't want to think about it too much. Since he already knew the floor where the target was, he would just go up and take them all out. He could ask for any information he wanted.

"Ah."

"I like this method."

The nights on Poseidon Island were cool, but Ran was frantically searching for Conan.

An hour had passed, and Conan seemed to have vanished completely from her sight.

"Should I call the police?"

"Don't worry, she probably went out with Ai Haibara. You just went to Natsukawa's room, and Natsukawa said that they went out together, so she definitely won't get lost."

"But I can't get through to them on the phone, I'm a little worried."

"Oh dear, why are you acting like an old woman? No man likes that. Even if you marry Shinichi Kudo, it won't be long before he's driven crazy by you."

Sonoko felt like she was being driven crazy by this.

While being kind-hearted is a good thing, Conan has only been gone for a short time. Besides, that kid is so cunning and treacherous, would he be afraid of being kidnapped by human traffickers?
"Ding dong."

"Look, I got a text message. It's probably Conan calling to let you know he's safe. He and Ai were probably playing games at some arcade, and then he realized he didn't have any money, so he called you."

Sonoko inexplicably assumes the worst about Conan.

However, her malice is rather childish. Conan is unlikely to be detained for playing games; it's more likely he'll discover a crime scene, and then the police will contact his guardian.

"Conan is a good boy, don't do this."

In this era, SMS advertising is still in its infancy, so there's no need to worry about SMS messages being useless.

Ran glanced down and immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Although Sonoko had said a lot of useless things, the text message was indeed from Conan.

【Ran-neechan, Shinichi-nii has already arrived on the island. My mom is going back to Japan with him this time because a friend of hers wants to see me in Shikoku, so I'm going there with her first and will be back in a couple of days.】
