Ai Haibara realized that no one was paying attention to her this time, and she completely relaxed, even having the leisure to observe her surroundings.

She happened to see Takagi Wataru staggering along the wall.

Yusuke Suzuki walked straight over. "Takagi, what happened?"

“It’s a bomb,” Takagi Wataru answered habitually, then turned his head, “Yusuke? And why are you holding Ai?”

Yusuke Suzuki lowered his eyes and met Ai Haibara's teasing gaze. The smile on her fair face was like a peach blossom in full bloom.

"Because...because...I was afraid she would get separated from us in the crowd." He looked up abruptly, stammering. He had suddenly felt like a criminal who had abducted a cute girl.

Takagi Wataru wiped the sweat from his forehead. "I see. Let's go over there first. I need to give you a report on the specifics."

The three continued onward, and Suzuki Yusuke saw Conan leading the three children to Shiratori Ninzaburo's side, presumably asking about Takagi Wataru's whereabouts.

Chapter 258 A Warning to the Black Cat, and Company Development

"Officer Shiratori! Have you seen Officer Takagi?!"

Conan was really anxious, and he raised his voice loudly, eagerly hoping that Shiratori Ninzaburo would give him the answer he wanted.

Shiratori Ninzaburo, however, turned his gaze away. "Actually, the bomb just happened to explode when Officer Takagi went there to move the car."

"I think... if he had been caught in the blast wave, he wouldn't have survived. Theoretically speaking, that's how it is."

The three little ones were stunned.

"How could you say that?" Takagi Wataru finally approached, his voice weak and trembling, clearly frightened. "Please, after escaping from the most dangerous moment, you don't need to say such sarcastic things..."

The three little ones breathed a sigh of relief when they saw him appear alive.

"Haibara-san, are you hurt?" Mitsuhiko suddenly noticed Suzuki Yusuke, who had come with him and was carrying Haibara Ai.

"No...no..." Ai Haibara suddenly realized, blushing as she came downstairs and began to make excuses.

Yusuke Suzuki spoke up, "I was worried that she would get separated from the crowd."

"I see. It's good that you're not injured."

Mitsuhiko nodded, but Ayumi, who was standing next to him, had a strange light in her eyes.

Since Takagi Wataru was alright, Conan felt much more relaxed. Seeing that Haibara Ai had returned to the group, he slowly walked over.

"You look pretty good now, Yusuke-nii seems to like you a lot."

Ai Haibara nodded immediately, "That's right, but I'm not content with just being a little sister, and besides..."

"And what?"

Ai Haibara chuckled and shook her head, silently thinking to herself, "Besides, Yusuke said he likes me no matter what."

"By the way..." Conan glanced around, then leaned closer and whispered, "How's the antidote making progress?"

"Very unsatisfactory."

"What!?"

Haibara sighed, "There's still too little research data, no experimental samples, and a lack of information. This kind of research is destined to be very slow."

"That's it..."

Conan looked dejected for a moment, but quickly perked up again. "Anyway, we still have time. You can focus on researching the antidote. Leave everything else to me."

"Then I really have to thank you, Detective."

While they were whispering to each other, Takagi Wataru also recounted his own experiences.

In just a short while, the police had dispersed the crowd, and the streets were much quieter.

Shiratori Ninzaburo suddenly noticed that next to Takagi Wataru's blown-up car, Sato Miwako was trying to save him.

“I wonder how she is,” Shiratori Ninzaburo gestured to Takagi Wataru. “I think she probably doesn’t know that you are safe and sound.”

"Officer Sato!"

Takagi Wataru quickly ran over, but before he arrived, Miyamoto Yumi had already helped Sato Miwako back.

"Miwako, what are you doing?"

"Of course I wanted to lift the car and get him out!"

"Officer Takagi is perfectly fine, you see."

Miyamoto Yumi promoted Sato Miwako to the position of head of the household, and Takagi Wataru ran towards them.

“It seems that Officer Sato still cares about Officer Takagi,” Ai Haibara said, returning to Yusuke Suzuki’s side. “They might actually go on a date.”

Yusuke Suzuki nodded, but he was also a little down.

Because he knew that what Sato Miwako really wanted to save was Matsuda Jinpei, who had already died in the line of duty.

The feelings lingered.

New feelings are hard to rekindle.

Actually, you can tell something from the bet that Sato Miwako made with Shiratori Ninzaburo last time.

Yusuke Suzuki watched for a while, then his phone suddenly vibrated.

He picked it up and saw that it was Miki Mamizu.

The other party gave him a general overview of the recent developments and future plans, and invited him to inspect them in person, as many things are best handled face-to-face.

At the end of the email, she complained about Kiichiro Numabuchi, saying that he didn't really listen to her orders.

After a moment's thought, Yusuke Suzuki quickly typed out a string of text and sent it, saying only two things.

First, he would naturally go to see her when he had time; second, Numabuchi Kiichiro only obeyed his own orders.

Miki Mamizu has now announced the establishment of a new gang called the Black Cat Society.

This was approved by Yusuke Suzuki, who also came up with the gang's name.

But he didn't expect that this would make Miki Mami a little arrogant.

After thinking for a moment, Suzuki Yusuke started emailing Numabuchi Kiichiro again, asking him to have a heart-to-heart talk with Mamizu Miki that evening, but not to reveal that it was his instruction.

While giving him a warning, it also helped establish Kiichiro Numabuchi's persona.

Yusuke Suzuki wanted to make Miki Masamizu understand how terrifying an unrestrained assassin could be, and to make her think carefully about whether she should completely submit to the person who could command the assassin.

Both awkward silences today were due to Sato Miwako, but it was clearly a matter of personal feelings, and there was nothing Conan could do about it.

While he was bored, he noticed that Yusuke Suzuki was hiding to the side playing on his phone, and it seemed that he was still sending emails.

It seems that even though my colleague doesn't go to the office often, he still has to remotely control and handle important tasks.

It had been a very long time since he had been to EW Company. He remembered that the last time he happened to pass by, the whole company looked completely different.

"Brother Yusuke," Conan tugged at Suzuki Yusuke's sleeve, "Could you take us to EW Company sometime?"

Yusuke Suzuki was somewhat surprised. Why would Conan suddenly want to go to EW Company?

Did they discover something?

But there's nothing to hide about anything related to EW Company...

After a moment's thought, Yusuke Suzuki refused outright.

"If you want to play, you can go by yourselves. You don't necessarily need me to take you."

To be honest, he intended to keep Conan as far away from EW Corporation as possible.

However, the more he forbids Conan from going, the more suspicious he becomes, and the more suspicious he becomes, the more likely Conan is to go.

Either way, Conan is going, but the probability of him going to the company in the first scenario is even lower.

He went to great lengths to ensure the safety of the company's employees.

Speaking of which, Ichika Yo and Chiga Rin have both disappeared from the news, so it seems there's no chance of a collaboration. In that case, let's get started on the company's end.

Anyway, he had already finished the script, opening theme, ending theme, and even the insert songs for "5 Centimeters Per Second".

I also copied two of Eighth Master's songs, "Lemon" and "LOSER".

However, since no suitable singers have been found for these two songs, they will be shelved for the time being.

As Suzuki Yusuke walked alongside Haibara Ai, he was lost in thought, his hand being held by hers, allowing him to focus on his other thoughts.

As for Conan, after being rejected, he turned his attention to Takagi Wataru, because the police investigation was about to begin in full swing.

Chapter 259 Should honest people be robbed?

Ai Haibara glanced back at Yusuke Suzuki, who was clearly still lost in thought, letting her hold his hand.

She went in one direction, and the other person followed.

But now she's the one doing the lifting, and she has to keep her hand up the whole time; she's already getting a little tired...

Forget it.

Ai Haibara raised her head with a smug look. Wouldn't it be better if she took the lead in holding Yusuke Suzuki's hand this time?

"By the way, Mitsuhiko, didn't someone pick up your camera?" Genta rubbed his chin. "Why didn't you ask Inspector Megure and the others to help you find it?"

"Oh right, my camera!" Mitsuhiko suddenly remembered, then looked at Conan, "The other person took my camera but hasn't returned it. Is it because it captured the culprit?"

Conan was taken aback; it was indeed very possible.

"I think you should go and explain the situation to Inspector Megure."

"Us?" Mitsuhiko paused for a moment. "And what about you?"

Conan looked at Professor Agasa and said, "Professor and I will go to the vicinity to see if we can find the camera. If the culprit is filmed, they should only take the tape inside."

After assigning tasks, everyone immediately dispersed, leaving only Ai Haibara holding Yusuke Suzuki's hand, unsure of what to do.

Actually, Suzuki Yusuke hadn't been daydreaming at all; he just found being led around like this a novel experience, so he didn't say anything.

"Let's go."

Seeing that Ai Haibara didn't know where to go, Yusuke Suzuki gently pulled the little girl to sit down on a chair outside a cafe on the street.

"Let's rest here for a while."
