"Yes, these are indeed mares bred here."

"I never expected to see it again," Kogoro Mouri immediately clasped his hands together in a prayer-like gesture. "Thank you so much for last time, but you seem a bit listless..."

“Because the baby in its belly died,” Sanae Takeuchi said sadly, “and it will never be able to have any more foals.”

Mrs. Lip seemed to understand Sanae Takeuchi's words and took the initiative to rub her face against the other's.

At this point, Yusuke Suzuki finally remembered the plot completely, and this time, the murderer could make a quick buck.

Chapter 147 Ai Haibara's Favoritism

After gazing wistfully at Mrs. Lipp for a while, Sanae Takeuchi continued leading them on the tour.

Yusuke Suzuki couldn't wait any longer and really wanted to ride a horse, but since no one had any objections to the tour, he had to suppress his excitement.

A short while later, another car drove in from outside the ranch. It was very fast and didn't care about others, kicking up a lot of dust.

Yusuke Suzuki reached out and covered Ai Haibara's mouth and nose, pulling the little girl back a few steps quickly. Normally, he might have cursed her in his heart, but now, he didn't care.

Because the guy in the car was the victim of today's events, and recalling the events, he only intended to get the murderer out of jail, not the victim.

"We have a guest, Sanae," Sugiyama Motoo greeted as he got out of the car.

At this moment, Tomoyuki Oonan came over and introduced Motoo Sugiyama to everyone. This man was the hoof maker at OK Ranch, responsible for changing the horseshoes of the horses.

The bumbling detective gave his daughter another lesson on hoof trimming, and also watched as hooves were trimmed and horseshoes were replaced.

Yusuke Suzuki was even more anxious; he really wanted to ride a horse!

This is his first time riding a horse, and he's really looking forward to it!

Under Yusuke Suzuki's subtle hints, Sanae Takeuchi finally understood his meaning and moved on to the horse selection process ahead of schedule.

He first helped Ai Haibara choose a pure white pony, which Conan had originally wanted, but he snatched it away.

So Conan reluctantly switched to a brown pony.

Yusuke Suzuki himself chose a relatively docile horse on the advice of Sanae Takeuchi.

"I didn't expect Conan to ride so well," Ran Mouri praised Conan, then looked at Ai Haibara, "Ai too."

"Should someone tone down their aura?"

Ai Haibara glanced speechlessly at Yusuke Suzuki. This guy actually chose to force the horse to lower its head by using his own aura in order to make it obey.

Billy, whom he was riding on, had obvious fear in his eyes and could barely walk.

Upon hearing this, Suzuki Yusuke smiled sheepishly and gradually calmed his breathing. Billy then recovered, feeling as if his horse life had been given a second spring.

For a beginner like him, riding a horse for a while to get a feel for it is enough; running at full speed could easily lead to an accident.

But Suzuki Yusuke didn't want it to end there. When he saw that Takeuchi Sanae's attention was on Mouri Ran, he squeezed his legs against the horse's belly and shot off like an arrow.

"Mr. Suzuki!"

Sanae Takeuchi was startled and tried to stop her, but it was too late.

The originally gentle wind suddenly became chilly in Suzuki Yusuke's ears. This wasn't just fooling around; it was a sign of his confidence.

Billy had already been very obedient to him, and he was fully capable of controlling his own strength.

Even if the car overturns, his skills are enough to ensure he won't get hurt.

Even if something happens, given his physical condition, he definitely won't be able to withstand too serious injuries.

Even if he gets injured, he won't ask the ranch for compensation.

After careful consideration, Yusuke Suzuki felt that he absolutely needed to have some fun.

The racecourse is quite large; even if Billy were to run at full speed, it would take him three minutes to reach the end.

The people who were initially worried gradually relaxed.

"Yusuke seems to be very happy."

Ran Mouri glanced at him from afar, and she remembered that she had never seen such a carefree smile on Yusuke Suzuki's face before.

"That troublesome guy..."

Ai Haibara bent down and hugged the white horse's neck, whispering, "Let's run slowly, don't be like that guy."

After playing for a while, apart from Yusuke Suzuki who was still riding around on horseback, the other three had stopped and led their horses to a halt.

"I'm going to the bathroom."

Ai Haibara handed the reins to Sanae Takeuchi and then left.

After walking for a while, she realized she had forgotten to ask where the restroom was. Just then, Hiroto Ninomiya happened to be passing by carrying a bucket of water.

She was about to wave when she thought about it and decided to walk closer before asking.

the other side.

Seeing his disciple's heroic figure, even Kogoro Mouri, who was waiting outside for the next wave of onlookers, couldn't sit still.

Just then, the bumbling detective, who was fantasizing about his dashing figure, suddenly heard Mrs. Lipp's neighing. When he turned around, he saw that Mrs. Lipp had broken free of her reins and run away.

"Mr. Ninomiya! Mrs. Lipp is over there!"

Sanae Takeuchi spotted Hiroto Ninomiya and quickly called out to him.

Yusuke Suzuki, who was at the racetrack, also saw Mrs. Lipp. He slapped his forehead and realized, "Damn it... I was going to help the murderer out of the way, but I forgot!"

By the time he arrived, Ninomiya Hiroto had already calmed Mrs. Lipp.

Where is Ai?

Yusuke Suzuki looked around and asked, "Where's my wife?"

"She said she was going to the restroom," Ran Mouri glanced at her watch, "It's been a while, why hasn't she come back yet?"

The two exchanged a glance, wondering if Mrs. Lipp had kicked them out!

Yusuke Suzuki felt a chill run down his spine and quickly ran in the direction Mrs. Lipp had come from.

"Ai!"

"What?" Ai Haibara stepped out from the shadows of the stables, pointed to the corpses on the ground, and said, "I was just about to come looking for you."

"I thought you got kicked by a horse."

Yusuke Suzuki quickly knelt down to check on her, and only breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that Ai Haibara was alright.

Ai Haibara: "......"

Can't we hope for something good in her?

Conan then peered intently at Sugiyama Motoo's body. He was bleeding heavily from the back of his head, and the marks resembled horseshoes. He had been kicked to death by Mrs. Lipp.

After reading it, Kogoro Mouri came to the same conclusion: "In short, let's call the police first."

After saying that, he looked at Sanae Takeuchi and Hiroto Ninomiya, "Now please take Mrs. Lipp to the washing area next door."

On the other side, Suzuki Yusuke was somewhat surprised after hearing Haibara Ai's whispered words.

Since his wife witnessed the whole thing, the murderer can get away with it again!

After exchanging glances with Ai Haibara, Yusuke Suzuki went directly to Hiroto Ninomiya and explained the situation.

As soon as the police arrived, he showed up to give his account.

Conan was searching for clues and making deductions when he saw his friend suddenly step forward, and his heart sank. Was it really that fast?!

Even though it's happened many times, I'm still very unwilling to give up!

"After an argument between Mr. Ninomiya and the deceased, the deceased threatened to kill Mr. Ninomiya with a knife and then carried it out."

Under these circumstances, Mr. Ninomiya retaliated by pushing the deceased, causing the deceased's head to hit a horseshoe on the ground, resulting in his accidental death.

Shouldn't this be considered legitimate self-defense?

Yusuke Suzuki explained the situation, and Ai Haibara, standing nearby, said she could testify.

“In that case… that is indeed self-defense,” the officer thought for a moment, “Please come with me to make a statement.”

After leaving the police station, Conan looked at Ai Haibara speechlessly and said, "Why didn't you tell me what you saw?"

"I want you to take care of..."

Ai Haibara replied, then silently walked to Yusuke Suzuki's side and took his hand.

Damn it! These two are totally in cahoots now!

Conan looked up at the back of Suzuki Yusuke's head. Suzuki's reasoning ability was already on par with his own, and now with Ai Haibara's help, how could he possibly win?

Chapter 148 Conan: Today was truly fulfilling.

A park.

Conan walked with Ayumi, while Genta and Mitsuhiko ahead were struggling to maintain their balance as they slowly walked along the railing, with paper tubes balancing on their heads.

They hadn't taken two steps when they both fell down.

"You two be careful."

Conan said irritably, while inwardly complaining, "Why do I have to stay with elementary school kids after school?"

"It's all Mitsuhiko's fault for tripping me up!" Genta got up. "By the way, Haibara hasn't been walking home with us from school lately."

“Yes,” Mitsuhiko said with some regret, “I wonder if we did something that made her dislike us.”

Conan pouted. That woman should be at Yusuke's house right now, right? She actually left him alone to keep an elementary school student company while she went to meet someone else.

"No, Haibara just likes to go see Yusuke-nii lately, it has nothing to do with you guys."

Conan offered an explanation while pondering what the two of them were doing together.

in the apartment.

Yusuke Suzuki helped Ai Haibara put her schoolbag away, and after she changed her shoes, he offered her a sandwich filled with blueberry jam.

"What, aren't you going to let me stay for dinner tonight?"

Ai Haibara took the sandwich and took a bite. It was her favorite flavor, and the blueberry jam was very fresh.
