The world of science is unscientific

That should be impossible, otherwise my friends wouldn't have missed that one and only opportunity last night.

This guy is very nice to children other than himself, including the three little ones!

Wait a minute.

Thinking like that makes me feel sad again.

Chapter 646 Our Reporter, Phantom Thief Kid

Conan quickly regained his composure, after all, it wasn't something he found unacceptable.

Now time is more important; there are only ten hours left.

Regardless of whether we can find the final item, we must at least do something to solve the mystery.

Yuriko Matsunaka is a very sensible girl who thinks that this is enough, but the three little ones don't think so.

So, the only people left in the arena who were not involved were Vermouth and Ai Haibara.

To avoid talking or interacting with Sherry too much, Vermouth chose to stare at Ai Haibara with a deep, affectionate gaze.

It has to be said, she really figured things out.

Ai Haibara couldn't stand this kind of eye contact.

Of course, if it were just her and Suzuki Yusuke here, that would be a different story.

But the more Ai Haibara acted like a shy little girl, the more excited Vermouth became.

No, this feeling is really addictive.

I wonder what it's like for Wei Que to be with Shirley all the time.

She was about to move closer to something more exciting when Conan suddenly turned his gaze toward the door.

The famous detective kept muttering to himself, recounting his reasoning, which was almost identical to Vermouth's, but with some new elements.

In addition to indicating time, the character '午' can also represent direction.

Moreover, he had overlooked the fact that noon should also be a crucial time.

After finishing his analysis, he ran out without paying attention to the three children's comments.

Anyway, these reasonings weren't meant for the three little ones to hear.

He was simply asking Suzuki Yusuke whether his reasoning was correct or not.

His friend's calm expression had already given him the answer.

Although everyone was already used to Conan's sudden departures, the three kids still chased after him with Yuriko Matsunaka.

There was no other way; if they couldn't figure out the answer to the puzzle themselves, they could only rely on the team's leaders.

Ai Haibara had assumed that Yusuke Suzuki would stay there alone with her and was already thinking about how to deal with him or retaliate when he followed her out.

It’s too unexpected!

Ai Haibara, harboring her own thoughts, chased after Vermouth outside, only to bump into her as Vermouth turned back.

And then...and then the little girl was arrested.

Vermouth inflated her shoulders to make them hard, then carried the little girl and ran.

In any case, under these circumstances, Ai Haibara would not be able to notice that the rest of her body had shrunk a bit.

With clothes covering her, it would be difficult to spot her even if she didn't try to hide it.

Next time, she plans to wear the heavy rubber prosthesis directly. She didn't wear it this time because she didn't have Wei Que's detailed body data, and it was also a last-minute decision, so there wasn't enough time to make one.

"Put me down, Yusuke!"

Ai Haibara struggled a couple of times, but Vermouth clearly wouldn't listen to her, and she couldn't bring herself to hit her husband, so she had no choice but to let it be.

Meanwhile, in the dense forest outside the Angel's Mansion, our reporter, Phantom Thief Kid, is broadcasting live for Yusuke Suzuki.

After receiving Yusuke Suzuki's message, Kaito Kuroba set off immediately, putting aside any disguise materials for the moment—he wasn't someone who lacked such things.

He mainly wanted to see his father's former disciples.

Just how dangerous must this person be for Yusuke to be so on edge?

Right now, he doesn't see any danger at all.

Looking at the other party's behavior, he had to seriously consider whether it was necessary for him to report Suzuki Yusuke to the Metropolitan Police Department.

He felt something was off last time because Ai Haibara used the word 'pamper'.

Yes, Ai Haibara, like Shinichi Kudo, does shrink.

But she's still essentially a little girl!

Yusuke, do you know you're breaking the law?!

“You yourself are breaking the law, and I have not done the kind of thing you’re thinking of.”

Suddenly, Yusuke Suzuki's voice came through the satellite phone.

Oh no, I've been spacing out for too long and I can't guess what they're thinking.

Kaito Kuroba chuckled twice and quickly changed the subject, "It doesn't seem like I have anything to do here, so why don't you let me go back to class?"

"Go to class? Have you ever gone to class?"

Yusuke Suzuki on the other end of the phone asked a question in return, and then continued, "Stay put, I'll be back soon. Report back immediately if anything happens."

After saying that, the call was disconnected.

"Ugh... but this is so boring."

Kaito Kuroba looked dejected, and his monocle drooped down.

Meanwhile, Vermouth had already arrived at the scene with Ai Haibara.

Despite Shirley's strong persuasion, she put the little girl down ahead of schedule.

As soon as they arrived, Conan found the mechanism on the wall below the angel sculpture and opened the secret room.

Not daring to enter a secret room is not in the nature of this group.

Before Vermouth could even speak to stop him, Conan had already led the way inside.

This kid is still incredibly reckless...

Vermouth sighed inwardly, wondering if Conan, that silly boy, had been corrupted by the three little ones.

"found it!"

Upon entering, Genta exclaimed in surprise.

However, what they found was not treasure, but a small bottle containing a triangular stone with long sides.

Seeing that there were no traps inside, Vermouth stepped inside and followed him in.

At a glance, she immediately connected the stone to the 'flute sound' mentioned in the riddle.

Is it a shadow?

Even adults couldn't easily climb such a huge sculpture, so placing a stone like a 'flute' near the angel's mouth wasn't a very realistic idea.

Vermouth and Conan both fell into thought, while the three of them looked around to observe the secret room.

Just then, Yuriko Matsunaka, who hadn't come in, suddenly exclaimed in surprise.

Everyone looked up and saw that it was Mr. Clock, who hadn't appeared for a long time, who had grabbed Matsunaka Yuriko's wrist. It seemed that he wanted to take Matsunaka Yuriko away.

Vermouth frowned.

Did I misjudge the situation?

But she immediately realized something was wrong and turned back to warn Conan and the others.

But it was too late.

The ground mechanism was triggered, and Conan and the three children instantly lost their support and fell.

Vermouth only had time to grab Ai Haibara, who was closest to her.

Her anger flared up instantly, and she turned around to look coldly at Mr. Clock.

"They just got lost in the maze, they should be fine."

Mr. Clock's voice remained indifferent, but he could also sense the growing murderous aura emanating from the man before him.

I can't win a fight, but I can still run away.

He grabbed Yuriko Matsunaka and quickly left.

Vermouth had anticipated this and had already rushed over when the other person started speaking, but she clearly underestimated the other person's speed.

Damn it, if it weren't for the need to grow taller, and all the other items restricting my movement...

As the clock and Yuriko Matsunaka's figure receded into the distance, Vermouth spat lightly.

Chapter 647 The Sudden Chill

Vermouth cursed inwardly, while Ai Haibara pulled out her detective badge and began calling out.

As expected, Conan and his friends were unharmed.

Vermouth was quite surprised; she had looked around the pit and couldn't see the bottom at all.

How could someone fall from such a height and be completely unharmed?

She didn't quite believe it.

However, it's always good that Conan wasn't injured.

After a brief exchange with Conan, Ai Haibara learned of his plan.

This is clearly the maze that Mitsuhiko entered before. As long as they find the corpse that he saw earlier, they can leave the maze and enter the room.

Ai Haibara and Vermouth can go directly to that room and wait, or they can go find Conan and the others from there.

There is no problem with this plan.
