The world of science is unscientific

He was sitting in a spot where he could only see the other person's profile, which was a bit of a shame.

After watching for a while, Suzuki Yusuke got bored and turned around to see who Mouri Kogoro was looking at. Judging by his taste, it should be a beautiful and cute girl.

However, when he turned his head, he found Conan staring at him—no, it should be said that Ai Haibara was staring at him.

Why am I suddenly feeling a little panicked?

Yusuke Suzuki quickly composed himself and said in a normal tone, "Conan, I saw a girl who looks a lot like Ai. I wonder what you'll be like when you grow up?"

"He must be very handsome."

As soon as he finished speaking, Kogoro Mouri glanced at Conan and said, "Stop being so narcissistic, you brat!"

Soon, the lights in the venue were turned off.

"Now we present to you 'A Lukewarm Love' performed by Class 2B. Please stay tuned."

The broadcast ended, and the curtain rose.

Ran Mouri, dressed as a princess, stunned the audience as she recited her lines to soft music.

"O all-knowing and all-powerful Zeus, why are you treating me like this, this poor woman? Do you really want me to humiliate myself and sacrifice myself in this hopeless marriage?"

Yusuke Suzuki raised an eyebrow. If you only look at the plot that was released before he traveled through time, then it would be quite fitting for Ran Mouri to say this line.

However, she and Shinichi Kudo were essentially going their separate ways, so at least Yusuke Suzuki would give this childhood sweetheart couple a happy ending.

He remembered reading a side story before he traveled through time, but he couldn't recall the name. It was about Conan waking up one day to find himself ten years in the future, where the Junior Detective League members and Conan had all grown up and formed a detective club.

Ran, however, is still waiting for Shinichi Kudo.

Kogoro Mouri couldn't stand it anymore, so he arranged a blind date and got Ran engaged.

(Adopted from a comment by a reader named "If You Guess, I'll Tell You," thank you.)

While Suzuki Yusuke was lost in thought, Mouri Kogoro next to him had already started cheering. Toyama Kazuha looked horrified and said, "Please, this is so embarrassing."

The surrounding audience also laughed.

He didn't think there was anything shameful about a father being proud of his daughter and cheering for her. Although Kogoro Mouri seemed confused, he was at least genuine.

The play quickly progressed to the scene where soldiers were ordered to intercept and kill the princess. Raven feathers fell from the sky above the stage, and a dashing knight in black made his entrance.

Ran Mouri recited her lines according to the script, "Who exactly are you, who have helped me so many times recently?"

Nameless knight shrouded in black, if you would grant this princess's humble wish, please remove your mask, as black as night.

Show me your true colors!

However, Shinichi Kudo, who had already ruined Vermouth's hard work in rehearsing, did not follow the script and directly embraced Ran Mouri.

Kogoro Mouri, sitting in the audience, immediately bristled, "That damn brat..."

As he was about to go on stage, he was stopped by Toyama Kazuha.

Three minutes later, just as the two were about to share a passionate kiss, a scream rang out as expected.

Shinichi Kudo immediately reached out and shielded Ran Mouri behind him, while the person who had been sitting next to the girl who looked a lot like Ai Haibara had already fallen to the ground.

after an hour.

Inspector Megure arrived.

"He must have collapsed at 2:40."

Upon hearing the voice, Inspector Megure froze, "Ran... Ran?"

Ran Mouri continued, "Because I heard the screams around the climax of the whole show."

“So,” Inspector Megure looked around, “that guy is here too.”

"Are you looking for someone, Inspector Megure?"

At this moment, Kogoro Mouri put on a suit jacket and walked onto the stage.

“I was talking about you,” Inspector Megure said speechlessly. “Well… Suzuki is here too, huh?”

When he saw Suzuki Yusuke arrive shortly after, his expression became even more serious.

"And I!"

Heiji Hattori chose to launch a surprise attack from behind, patting Juichi Megure on the shoulder.

Megure: "......"

Why is even this guy here? Can't he go cause trouble in Osaka instead of coming to his territory?!

After internally criticizing it, Inspector Megure accepted reality, "Well, no one should have been near the corpse just now, right?"

"It wasn't there before, but it is now."

Yusuke Suzuki pointed at the corpse, while Heiji Hattori was almost face-to-face with it.

You can teleport, huh?!

“It should be potassium cyanide, right?” Hattori Heiji sniffed near the corpse’s mouth. “Normally, people lose their color when they die, but this guy’s lips and nails are not only not purple, but pink.”

Furthermore, his breath had a faint bitter almond taste, which is also evidence of potassium cyanide poisoning.

The forensic doctor standing nearby immediately corroborated Hattori Heiji's theory.

"Did you see anything unusual about the deceased before their death?"

Inspector Megure looked at the crowd.

"No, we were focused on watching the show."

Several people said in unison.

Megure Juichiro's speechless face +1

"In conclusion, let's continue the investigation."

Megure Juzo looked at the three people who came with the deceased, "Excuse me, Mr. Urata, did you buy this drink yourself?"

“I bought them,” Hong Shangwu said, “I went to the beverage stall over there and bought four servings of drinks, then brought them directly to where everyone was sitting.”

As she spoke, she looked at the somewhat overweight man beside her, "I gave four drinks to Mr. Mitani before going to the restroom, right?"

Yota Mitani nodded, and Inspector Megure continued, "Mr. Mitani, were you the one who handed that drink to the deceased Mr. Urata just now?"

“No,” Yota Mitani quickly explained, “I was passing it around to everyone, so it was actually Noda who handed the drink directly to Urata.”

Noda Yumemi, who looks a lot like Haibara Ai, got anxious. "What are you saying? The person who helped Dr. Urata choose the iced coffee just now was clearly you."

Seeing that the group was about to start arguing, Takagi Wataru quickly stepped forward to change the subject, "I wonder what the relationship is between Mr. Urata and the three of you? Could you please explain?"

Hearing the conversation, Hattori Heiji walked over to Suzuki Yusuke's side. "Yusuke-nii, the girl you mentioned earlier..."

"Yes, it's this Miss Hongshang Wuyi."

Hattori Heiji said secretly, "Yusuke-nii, you're really perceptive. You noticed something was wrong right away. So, have you figured out who the murderer is yet?"

“How could it be so fast?” Yusuke Suzuki feigned surprise. “Have you already figured it out?”

"No... Ah... Haha."

Hattori Heiji scratched his head and chuckled awkwardly, thinking to himself, "It's all because you always solve cases so quickly that I've gotten used to feeling like I'm a step behind."

However, since Yusuke hasn't solved it yet, doesn't that mean I have a chance to solve the case even faster this time?

By the way, where's Kudo?

Heiji Hattori suddenly realized that Conan wasn't running around at all, and he hadn't even seen a trace of him.

the other side.

"Then why would you go and buy drinks for four people? That's too much work." Kogoro Mouri expressed his incomprehension of Mai Kougami's actions.

Hong Shangwu explained, "Because there were a lot of people at the time, I told everyone to go to their seats first so that they could get good seats."

Later, Urata came over to ask for my help, but he ran away immediately after seeing someone at the drink stand.

"someone?"

Inspector Megure felt he had grasped the key.

"I think he probably saw me selling drinks at the counter too."

At this moment, another person appeared. She also knew the group and was the daughter of the hospital director where the deceased was staying.

"It seems all the suspects have arrived."

As soon as Hattori Heiji finished speaking, the others began to speak up to clear their names.

After listening to the explanation, Yusuke Suzuki understood the gist of it and turned to leave to find Conan, who had disappeared somewhere.

Today, he'll just pretend to be a complete stranger. Shinichi Kudo went to great lengths, even drinking a temporary antidote with uncertain side effects, just to reappear, so naturally he won't steal the spotlight from him.

He also gave Hattori Heiji some extra scenes, just to get the reward.

Before she had taken two steps, Conan came over. And you know what? As long as she didn't say too much, Ai Haibara's act was actually pretty convincing.

"Where were you just now?"

He usually doesn't care because Conan will naturally revolve around him, but now that Conan is behaving strangely, he needs to make the appropriate response.

I went backstage for a while.

The voice changer produced a somewhat distorted sound, and the tone was off, but Yusuke Suzuki simply pretended not to notice.

"Looks like catching a cold is the best way to deal with you. It's good that you didn't bother me today."

As he spoke, Yusuke Suzuki squatted down and patted Conan's head. "Are you feeling unwell? I can take you back to rest."

"No need, I want to take a look."

At that moment, Hattori Heiji came over and said with dissatisfaction, "Yusuke-nii, you guys weren't comparing answers behind my back, were you?"

"No, I just asked him if he wanted to go back and rest first." Suzuki Yusuke got up. It had started raining outside the window. He couldn't help but lean against the window, take out a cigarette and light it.

He smoked while gazing at the rain; he didn't know when he developed this habit.

The unique scent of rainwater mingled with the damp, cold wind, wafting onto his face and even filling the gaps between his temples and ears.
