After finishing his cigarette, he couldn't help but wonder if that out-of-body feeling he had just experienced was really a dream.

He instinctively felt that it wasn't true.

It's not that I'm deceiving myself, but the difference between the situation at the time and the dream was indeed quite significant.

The most crucial thing was the excruciating pain that awakened him; he had never experienced this kind of mental strain before when he was strengthening himself.

Yusuke Suzuki suddenly wondered if he was overusing his brain when he was trying to enter a state of unconsciousness.

If that's the case, then that's quite interesting.

Let's put these aside for now and think about them later.

The first priority now is to take a shower, and then go eat.

The sticky feeling on his body and the hunger were the only two unbearable sensations for him. If it weren't for the fact that the sweat on his body had dried and he needed time to check his physical condition, he probably would have taken a shower immediately.

The bathing process was quite comfortable.

Although his body was strengthened, he didn't have any dark 'impurities' flowing out of his body like in the fantasy novels he read in his previous life.

After taking off my clothes, I only smelled slightly worse than after my usual morning exercise.

Wash it once, and then soak it again when you come back after dinner.

Pack up the clothes you wore in the afternoon and put them in the trash, then change into comfortable, clean clothes.

Yes, Not Bad.

Refreshed.

the other side.

The group has already visited the East Metropolitan Phenomenon Institute.

While Yukiko Kudo, her two friends, and Ai Haibara had a chance to speak with the staff, Yukiko Kudo leaned down behind Conan and whispered, "Shin-chan~~"

"What is it?"

"I can't believe it," Yukiko Kudo said, her face flushed. "You're quite popular with women."

"Huh?" Conan tried to appear calm. "You mean Ayumi?"

"Besides her, there's another one."

Conan couldn't hold back any longer and looked completely surprised.

Yukiko Kudo slowed her speech, "That's Haibara-san."

"I think she stared at your face at least ten times today."

Conan smiled wryly, "I think she's probably observing how people grow after drinking the medicine she created."

Yukiko Kudo glanced at Ai Haibara secretly, and seeing that the other hadn't noticed, she scolded softly, "You're so silly. Girls stare at boys, either because they have something on their face or because they've fallen for them. Don't you even know that?"

Ugh...

Conan sighed and said speechlessly, "Haibara already has someone she likes, okay? Stop gossiping."

"Really?" Yukiko Kudo exclaimed in surprise. "Tell me who it is!"

Although Conan didn't want to say it, he couldn't stand his mother's coaxing and flattering tactics.

He carefully chose his words and said, word by word, "It's...it's Yusuke-nii."

Yukiko Kudo leaned back strategically, "This... Yusuke, isn't this illegal!?"

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Conan said with a strange look. "Yusuke doesn't know that Haibara likes him, and he only sees Haibara as a little sister right now."

"Is that so..."

Yukiko Kudo seemed a little annoyed that she had made a mistake in her judgment, and was also a little troubled by Ai Haibara's romantic storyline, so her expression suddenly became complicated.

After a long silence, she sighed, "What a pity."

"What's a pity?"

Yukiko Kudo smiled sweetly, "Next time you come, I'll adopt Haibara as my daughter. If she agrees, you'll have... By the way, which of you two is older?"

Conan was genuinely astonished by his mother's wild imagination. "Don't do anything reckless!"

In a moment of urgency, he quickly changed the subject, "By the way, are you really sure you've shaken off that strange car you saw on the way here?"

"So you've already noticed it?"

"Is there any need to say it? You were standing still when the traffic light turned from green to yellow, but that black car didn't honk once. That was to avoid letting us know they were there."

Conan said seriously, "This means that the other party has been following us, and probably has been following us from the very beginning."

“Absolutely right,” Yukiko Kudo said seriously. “Then who could it be?”

“The target that car was targeting could be me,” Conan paused here, “but if it’s Ai Haibara, then it’s highly likely that those guys were the ones following us.”

At this moment, Yukiko Kudo suddenly shook her head, "No, speaking of possibilities, there's another possibility."

"If the person sitting in that car was... perhaps once a big fan of mine."

Conan: "???"

He filtered out Yukiko Kudo's subsequent narcissistic remarks, leaving only one sentence.

No matter what, you have to protect her. She's the only one she can rely on now.

He disagreed with that statement.

If Ai Haibara were willing to reveal her identity to Yusuke Suzuki, given her friend's abilities, she would be far more reliable than he is now.

In fact, if those men in black really found Ai Haibara and took some action, Yusuke Suzuki would definitely not stay out of it, and he would still be involved in the matter.

In this case...

Conan wondered to himself, "Then why not just be honest with Suzuki Yusuke now?"

This is a problem...

After thinking for a while, Conan was unable to make a decision.

After all, to be honest, Suzuki Yusuke's true identity has always been a mystery.

What if his judgment is wrong and he reveals his identity? That would be self-destruction.

Wait a minute, on another note, the expression on Yukiko Kudo's face when she asked him to protect Ai Haibara... something felt off.

Could it be that his mother wasn't joking when she said she wanted to adopt Ai Haibara as her daughter?!

Thinking about it carefully, it seems that Yukiko Kudo could totally do this too!

Chapter 365 You wouldn't happen to like me, would you?

Why are you staring at me?

Conan was deep in thought when Ai Haibara suddenly turned around.

"Um..." Conan didn't know how to respond for a moment, then steeled himself and said, "It looks like you have something on your face."

"Really?" Ai Haibara touched her cheek, speechless. "I didn't feel anything."

"I must have misread it..."

Conan hastily brushed it off, laughing awkwardly, but Ai Haibara couldn't figure him out, so he turned his head away and continued listening to Ayumi talk.

Seeing this, Yukiko Kudo, who was standing behind Conan, revealed a mysterious smile.

After half an hour.

A group of people went out to see them off.

Yukiko Kudo rolled down the car window and waved to Conan and the others, "That's all for now, goodbye, have a good time watching the preview and then go home."

"Okay, thank you, Auntie!" the three little ones answered in unison.

"By the way, Conan, come here for a second."

Conan stepped forward impatiently, "What's wrong?"

"You must make sure to escort Haibara to the very end."

"I know that. You're so long-winded. Hurry up and go, or you'll miss your flight."

"That's right, that's right," Yukiko Kudo said, her eyes crinkling with a smile, concealing her reluctance. "Goodbye, Shin-chan~~"

The red Alfa Romeo sped away, its engine sound fading into the distance.

"We'll be able to watch the preview screening in a little while," Ai Haibara thought, finding a seat in the hallway and sending a text message to Yusuke Suzuki.

At the same time, she was thinking about why Conan had been staring at her earlier.

Before I could even get my thoughts going, Yusuke Suzuki's reply arrived.

The text message also included a photo.

It's a picture of Yusuke Suzuki eating a shrimp with his mouth wide open.

Ai Haibara smiled faintly, and upon hearing footsteps, she naturally put her phone away.

Looking up, I saw Ayumi.

"Ai, come with me quickly, everyone's getting ready for the preview screening."

"Ah."

Ai Haibara nodded and followed Ayumi away.

After she left, a dark figure silently disappeared outside the wall at the entrance outside the window.

For Conan and Ai Haibara, watching this preview screening was really not very interesting, but the three of them were still quite excited.

By the time I finished watching, it was already past 10 o'clock.

The group of five followed the staff to stay overnight.

Ai Haibara secretly observed the staff members and then glanced at Conan.

A case is likely to occur today, right?

If that happens, then she can basically conclude that Conan does indeed possess some kind of mysterious power.
