Shimojo Noboru started talking to himself, walked over to the next table, and casually found a seat to sit down.

“Come on,” Sonoko Suzuki said, picking up the menu and speaking sarcastically, “Let’s order something to eat before they start arguing.”

“We’re not arguing,” Noboru Shimojo, who was also looking at the menu, replied. “I’m telling you, we just want to teach that guy a lesson.”

"rule?"

"Yes, that is, the laws of nature that cannot be arbitrarily broken by humans."

So Sonoko Suzuki then started chatting with Noboru Shimojo.

"Here, Ai, try this."

Yusuke Suzuki led Ai Haibara on a feast. The food at this restaurant was surprisingly good, even though they had made some changes to the menu to suit Japanese tastes.

They kept eating, while Noboru Shimojo drank heavily. He was already a bit drunk and kept complaining about Yoshiichi Aramaki, the uncle he had argued with that afternoon.

Upon hearing Shimojo Noboru say, "Even if we start now, it would take countless years to restore the marine ecosystem to its original state," Suzuki Yusuke couldn't help but inwardly scoff, treating it as a joke.

As time went on, the other two people finally arrived, and the classic three-choice scenario was achieved.

However, Suzuki Yusuke intuitively felt that the culprit was none other than Shimojo Noboru, whose resentment towards Aramaki Yoshiichi was practically overflowing.

What's rather unexpected is that Sonoko Suzuki has actually become close friends with those three.

Seeing that they had almost finished eating, and that Aramaki Yoshi was still not over, Nezu Shinji, who was making his first public appearance, decided to make a phone call to him.

At that moment, Ai Haibara poked Yusuke Suzuki's thigh with her finger. "I'm still a little weak. Can I go back to my room to rest?"

"I'll take you there."

"No need," Ai Haibara tilted her head and smiled slightly, putting her hands behind her back. "I can do it myself, it's okay."

"Okay, be sure to call me if anything happens."

After watching Ai Haibara leave, Yusuke Suzuki began to wait for the plot to unfold.

......

beach.

“I see,” Yokomizo said, crossing his arms. “Mr. Aramaki had already arranged to meet you at 8 p.m. tonight at the Dongfenglou Chinese restaurant attached to the Queen’s Hotel.”

But when the time came, Mr. Aramaki didn't show up. So, you went to the beach at 9:30 AM, an hour and a half later, to check on him, only to find Mr. Aramaki already wrapped in a fishing net, washed ashore by the waves.

Officer Yokomizo looked knowing. "This Mr. Aramaki and your local fishermen have always been at odds. It's possible that the three of you drowned him here first, and then pretended to have discovered the body later to call the police."

Shimojo Noboru and the other two naturally tried to explain themselves away.

“I can vouch for the truth of what they said.”

Officer Yokomizo turned his head and saw, "It's Sonoko and Ran!"

"Actually, during the day, Xiaolan and I had already heard on the beach about them meeting this dead man, right, Xiaolan?"

Sonoko Suzuki added another sentence, gesturing for her best friend to follow.

Ran Mouri nodded and said, "Furthermore, we can confirm that all three of them just went to the Chinese restaurant."

"However, the three of them arrived at slightly different times."

Dr. Agasa also arrived on the battlefield.

Yokomizo Sango was greatly surprised. How come it's you guys again? He shifted his gaze and saw Suzuki Yusuke smiling and waving at him.

He was still somewhat disappointed after confirming that Kogoro Mouri was not there.

Seeing that Officer Coral Head didn't greet them, the Junior Detectives felt it necessary to show off their skills.

Ayumi: "This skinny older brother arrived after 7:10."

Yuan Tai: "This slightly chubby older brother arrived around 8 o'clock."

Mitsuhiko: "This tanned older brother arrived at 8:40."

"You guys... so you're saying Conan and that girl who acts like a little adult also..."

Yokomizo Sango recalled for a moment and looked at Professor Agasa.

“Ai is resting at the hotel,” Yusuke Suzuki explained on her behalf. “As for Conan, look over there.”

Following the direction of his finger, Yokomizo Sango immediately saw Conan squatting in front of the corpse, looking at it. He rushed over, picked up Conan, and took him away.

"How can you just touch a corpse like that?"

Conan quickly replied, "Inspector Yokomizo, don't you find this strange?"

He pointed at the body, "Look, it was clearly drowned, but its clothes and body are covered in wounds. And how did the deceased get wrapped in a fishing net?"

"It serves both a symbolic purpose and a way to restrict the deceased's actions during their lifetime."

Yusuke Suzuki walked over, put on his gloves, and handed over Conan's special little gloves.

"Symbolic meaning?"

Yokomizo Sango looked at Suzuki Yusuke with some doubt.

"Ah, let Mr. Aramaki be caught in the fishing net like a fish."

Yusuke Suzuki made a move to examine the body, but was stopped by Sango Yokomizo, who said, "This kind of thing can be left to the police!"

He put Conan down, confiscated the small gloves, and then arranged for his men to take the body for autopsy.

Conan looked mournful; his little glove had actually been arrested by the police!

Just as Shimojo Noboru and the other two were about to leave, Suzuki Yusuke suddenly felt a slight itch in his heart.

On the other side, in the hotel room.

After watching a movie, Ai Haibara put the last potato chip in her mouth and slowly opened her bag.

Inside was an outfit that clearly didn't fit her figure, and a small metal box.

She opened the box, held up two fingers to take out a white pill, hesitated for a moment, and then put it in her mouth and swallowed it.

Chapter 141 First meeting

Is this what it feels like to have your body back to normal?

Ai Haibara clenched her fist with one hand; her knuckles were still a little stiff, but fortunately it didn't affect her movement much. After changing her clothes, she stood in front of the mirror and carefully examined herself.

Long time no see, Sherry.

Ai Haibara sighed silently to herself, but before leaving, she hesitated again, her delicate little hand trembling slightly as she placed it on the doorknob.

After waiting for about half a minute, she finally let out a long breath, opened the door, and went out.

However, they haven't returned after so long, so another case must have occurred, right?

That's good, isn't this the opportunity I've been waiting for?

Ai Haibara went to Dongfenglou first, but didn't see anyone. After asking around, she learned that Yusuke Suzuki and the others had gone to the beach.

The sky was dark and heavy, pressing down on the sea. She immediately spotted Suzuki Yusuke, who was squatting on the ground whispering to Conan.

My heart started racing uncontrollably, and it took me a while to calm myself down.

"Little friend, are you called Conan?"

Conan was discussing with Suzuki Yusuke what caused the wounds on the corpse when he heard the noise and turned around in confusion.

Σ(っ°Д °;)っ

This...this woman looks so much like Ai Haibara!?

Yusuke Suzuki, who also turned his head, was stunned.

what's the situation?

Conan might still have some doubts, but he was certain that the woman in front of him was Ai Haibara!

"Um... a little girl asked me to give this to you," Ai Haibara said, trying not to blush, as she pulled out a voice-changing bow tie and handed it to Conan. "This should be yours, right?"

As she spoke, Ai Haibara began to give Conan a meaningful look, warning him not to say anything inappropriate.

Now that Conan was sure, he quickly thanked him in a child's voice.

"Is that little girl alright?"

Yusuke Suzuki asked coldly, "The antidote for APTX-4869 has definitely not been successfully developed yet. The antidote that Ai Haibara took must be similar to the one Conan took before."

The scene of Shinichi Kudo falling unconscious on the spot was still vivid in his mind, and the painful experience after taking the medicine also surged in his memory.

I don't know why Ai Haibara is taking this kind of medicine now, what if there are other bad side effects?

This part was definitely not in the original storyline, so it's highly likely that this was a change caused by my appearance.

Yusuke Suzuki is now feeling both guilty and angry.

Ai Haibara noticed the coldness in his tone and assumed that Yusuke Suzuki was worried that the 'little girl' was feeling unwell again.

She said she was a little tired and couldn't wait for you to come back, so she went to sleep first.

There was a moment of silence, then Conan quickly pointed at Inspector Yokomizo and said, "Yusuke-nii, it seems Inspector Yokomizo is arguing with those three people again."

Is this telling me to leave?

Yusuke Suzuki raised an eyebrow and walked away.

"Hey, what are you doing?"

Once Conan and Suzuki Yusuke were out of sight, Conan immediately questioned him in a low voice.

"What, are you the only one allowed to revert to your original body?"

"That's not what I meant," Conan said, organizing his thoughts. "You need to have a reason, right? Didn't you not want to change back before?"

"I just wanted to see him looking like this..."

The white tank top worn by Ai Haibara was ruffled by the sea breeze, and she murmured as she looked at the back of Yusuke Suzuki not far away.

"Him? Who is that?" Conan followed Ai Haibara's gaze and suddenly realized something. "Haibara, you wouldn't..."

Ai Haibara did not answer, and Conan remained silent as well.

After suppressing his shock, Conan reached out, "Then give me one too."
