I'm in Detective Conan, and the system has appointed Batman.

Chapter 822 The appearance of the loli mother indicates that someone is about to refresh the page.
"I'm asking you, is this bait plan really okay?"

Ai Haibara muttered to herself in a low voice.

At this moment, the members of the Junior Detective Club and Chen Enqi stood together by the window of the apartment they had rented earlier.

When asked by Ai Haibara, Chen En simply replied as if it were the most natural thing in the world.

"Don't worry, it's okay."

"Didn't Officer Shiratori already explain the specific plan to Ms. Kobayashi?"

"Although Inspector Megure was furious, he eventually agreed to the plan."

"Based on my deduction, Kodama Ryusei will arrive at the scene in a few minutes."

The members of the Junior Detective League: ?

What?! So reasoning can do something this incredible?

Their admiration for Chen En immediately increased even more.

Reasoning, of course, cannot accomplish such a thing.

Ai Haibara thought to herself.

"You're basically using Noah's Ark to monitor and report your location, aren't you?"

But even though I was complaining in my heart.

But she didn't say it.

On one hand, for the members of the Junior Detective League...

A strong and capable adult is necessary as backup.

Although it's not noticeable under normal circumstances.

However, in a truly critical situation, Chen En's words are far more effective than either hers or Conan's.

Not every child is like Jade in the cartoon, who is uncontrollable.

And there's also... nearby

"It's really incredible."

Sumiko Kobayashi looked at the 'stand-in' sitting inside the Poirot Cafe with some surprise.

It's already afternoon.

In the morning, Chen En took them directly to a nearby restaurant for lunch.

On the way, Officer Shiratori brought Officer Sato to the hotel and explained everything.

She immediately thought that Sato Miwako looked exactly like her.

However, Officer Sato had absolutely no self-awareness.

And he's a very easygoing person.

It seems that apart from their appearance, they have nothing in common.

But even though I had already seen what Miwako Sato looked like at the restaurant.

Now, Miwako Sato has changed into the exact same clothes and hairstyle as her.

This feeling of disorientation still lingers.

It made her marvel at how many miracles there are in the world.

If it were before today...

Someone told her that there might be people in the world who look exactly alike but are not related by blood.

She absolutely would not believe it.

But now she believed it.

However, the thought that Sato Miwako looks almost exactly like herself comes to mind.

Sumiko Kobayashi asked in a low voice, still somewhat downcast.

"By the way, Mr. Chen En."

"What do you think about the relationship between Officer Shiratori and Officer Sato...?"

However, before she could finish explaining her question...

Just moments ago, Chen En was marveling at the fact that he would one day return to this apartment room to observe the movements across the street. Suddenly, his brows furrowed and his eyes narrowed slightly.

Then he suddenly stood up and said in a low voice.

"Excuse me, I'm going out for a bit."

"As for the relationship between Officer Shiratori and Officer Sato?"

"Ms. Kobayashi, all I can say is that the childhood experience that Officer Shiratori mentioned that is related to you is true. It's just that you haven't remembered it yet. There's no need to speculate too much about other possibilities."

"Excuse me."

Chen En pushed open the apartment door and then walked down the corridor.

Watching Chen En disappear from sight.

The members of the Junior Detective Club looked at each other in bewilderment.

I don't know why Chen En suddenly left.

Only Ai Haibara managed a slight twitch at the corner of her mouth.

There's no need to ask Noah's Ark.

If the members of the Junior Detective Club hadn't all been there, she wouldn't have been able to leave. She probably would have gone down with them by now.

All I could see was the street.

A strangely familiar person appeared.

That was Sera Masumi, whom I had met on the bus earlier.

Sera Masumi was accompanied by a child who looked like an elementary school student.

If nothing unexpected happens.

That's Sera Masumi's loli mother, Akai Mary.

If it were just these two people, that would be alright.

But behind Sera Masumi.

Hondo Eisuke, who looks very similar to Kobayashi Sumiko, is also hanging in the distance.

If this isn't dealt with, something bad might happen.

For example, Kodama Ryusei mistook Hondo Eisuke for Kobayashi Sumiko, etc...

To be honest, if you take temperament and personality into account...

Eiyu Hondo is even more like Sumiko Kobayashi than Miwako Sato.

"Tsk, since both of them are here, then wouldn't that mean..."

Ai Haibara muttered to herself.

Now that the little girl's mother has appeared.

Therefore, Captain Kuvatro should be spawning within sight not too long.

The Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department had already suspected that Kuvatro was a lolicon.

Will they really arrest Curtello this time for being a lolicon?

If that's really the case.

She felt she needed to take a picture with her smartphone and send it to her sister.

I'm sure my sister in the United States would be shocked if she saw this photo...

"...Is what Officer Shiratori said about his childhood experiences true?"

Kobayashi Sumiko's attention was completely focused on Chen En, who had left.

She whispered and repeated what Chen En had just said.

do not know why.

She felt that what Chen En said might be true.

However, this was based on the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department's subjective assumptions.

Even now, she's not sure.

The members of the Junior Detective Club then turned their attention to Sumiko Kobayashi.

They discussed it in hushed tones.

"Didn't Shiratori repeat what Ms. Kobayashi taught Ayumi to fold cherry blossoms at the movie theater? Before that, Shiratori had never met Ms. Kobayashi..."

"If I hadn't heard about these things from Ms. Kobayashi when I was a child, how would I have known them?"

"So, Brother Shiratori and Teacher Kobayashi must have met when they were little, right?"

"Ms. Kobayashi seems to be... Should we tell Ms. Kobayashi now?"

Genta and Mitsuhiko discussed in a low voice.

Their gazes all fell on Ayumi.

Ayumi, however, spoke with a somewhat serious tone.

"No, no, no."

"It's only meaningful if Ms. Kobayashi recalls this herself."

"And shouldn't the person involved be the one to say it?"

"I have a feeling that Officer Shiratori has a way to help Ms. Kobayashi remember things..."

"He just hasn't remembered it yet."

what is this?
Is it a girl's sixth sense?

Ai Haibara turned her head and glanced at Ayumi.

Although this sense of ritual can create an atmosphere.

But sometimes, it can make people feel that the sense of ritual is unnecessary.

...It's not about Ms. Kobayashi.

She was simply recalling the events involving Professor Agasa and Fusae.

If Fusae hadn't chosen to meet Professor Agasa through the ritualistic once-in-a-decade meeting, their situation would probably be very different now.

"Ah, Brother Chen En has passed by!"

Genta looked up and glanced at it, then said in surprise.
