Hondo Eisuke revealed a hint of longing, "Yes, like my father and sister, I want to become a CIA officer."

“As I said, I don’t like feeling restricted, so I refused the FBI’s witness protection program.”

"Besides, it seems that the evil organization you mentioned hasn't focused its attention on me yet."

Upon hearing this, Conan, though still harboring some hostility towards Hondo Eisuke, cautioned, "That's not necessarily true; the people of that evil organization are everywhere."

Then, he changed the subject, "But since you've already decided to leave, why go back to school?"

"Even though it's only for a short time, I still want to meet up with my friends." Hondo Eisuke said in a relaxed tone, "I was also thinking of confessing my feelings to Ran."

what?

No way, are you really trying to steal my girlfriend?

Conan's eyes widened.

Hondo Eisuke continued, "I fell in love with her at first sight the first time I met her. I've never seen such a cute and gentle girl before."

"It's very tempting."

After saying that, he hesitated for a moment, "But the person she likes seems to be Shinichi, although I don't know what Shinichi feels for her."

"By the way," Hondou Eisuke bent down, his face full of anticipation, "do you know how to contact Shinichi?"

Conan nodded subconsciously.

Hondo Eisuke continued, "Then... could you please ask him for me?"

I asked him if I could confess my feelings to Xiaolan.

Conan was already serious and silent.

Hondou Eisuke was still encouraging himself, "If it were me, I would definitely be different from Shinichi. I wouldn't abandon Ran."

"I will take her to America in the future and let her live a happy life."

Are you just going to abandon Xiaolan and leave her alone?

A bittersweet feeling welled up in Conan's heart.

Yes, in the current situation.

It's logical for him to let go on his own.

But... that doesn't make sense.

Conan's gaze hardened.

The relationship between him and Ran Mouri doesn't require that kind of self-indulgent letting go.

Because Xiaolan... really likes and wants to be with him.

Therefore, the right to relinquish it will never be in his hands, no matter what.

All he needs to do is defend!

Conan stopped and immediately rejected the idea, saying, "No."

Hearing him say that, Hondo Eisuke also stopped, still smiling, "No, I wasn't asking for your opinion."

"It's to ask Shinichi's opinion."

Without pausing, Conan glanced at Hondo Eisuke and immediately began to speak.

"So didn't I say no?"

This statement was made with absolute certainty.

Hondou Eisuke's expression froze for a moment, then he asked, "So...you are...?"

"Yes, you're right." Conan chose to confront the issue without hesitation.

After a short silence.

Hondo Eisuke suddenly laughed.

Conan thought the other person didn't believe him.

Before he could even explain, Hondo Eisuke looked at Conan and said, "That resolves the doubt."

"The reason I went to Detective Mouri in the first place was because I heard that he had met with Rena Mizunashi before she disappeared."

"But at the time I didn't know that Rena Mizunashi was my sister and that she was a CIA investigator. I thought that Detective Mouri must have teamed up with bad guys to hide Rena Mizunashi somewhere."

You really know how to think!

Conan made a brief comment, then began to ponder Hondo Eisuke's intentions.

He fell into the trap because he was in such a hurry.

The main reason was that Hondo Eisuke's impression of him was that he was muddle-headed, so he wasn't very wary of him at all.

While Conan was pondering, Hondo Eisuke was still rambling on and on.

"After some investigation, I discovered that Kogoro Mouri's reasoning ability was almost completely different before and after he was given the title of 'Sleeping Man'."

"And you seem to be the key."

"To be honest, I did have my doubts about Yusuke. His reasoning ability is also excellent, and he chose to remain invisible at the crime scene."

"But after careful consideration, you are more suspicious because you have spent more time with Detective Mouri."

"Based on various pieces of information, the time you took a leave of absence from school coincides with the time when Detective Mouri became famous, and it was also during that period that you moved into Ran's house."

"So... although it's incredible, Conan is Shinichi Kudo, that seems to be the only answer."

It has to be said that Hondo Eisuke now seems like a completely different person from before.

Conan sighed and chuckled, "So, your confused look was all an act?"

Hondo Eisuke nodded, "Yes! But it's true that I fell in love with Ran at first sight, so please make Ran happy."

Since things had come to this point, Conan simply took out his phone and called Ran Mouri directly.

The call was answered quickly.

"Xiao Lan, are you busy?"

"Um... I just suddenly have something I want to tell you."

"Then listen carefully, and absolutely do not forget."

"I, Shinichi Kudo, will definitely marry you, and I will definitely make you happy."

After saying that, Conan hung up the phone.

His heart was pounding, and he desperately wanted to catch his breath, but with Hondo Eisuke there, he naturally had to hold back.

"So you can be this direct?"

Hondo Eisuke was very surprised. "Then why don't you just tell Ran that you are Shinichi Kudo?"

Conan exclaimed that the idiot was back.

He said irritably, "Didn't Rena Mizunashi tell you she was a CIA agent?"

“That’s true,” Hondo Eisuke scratched his head, his expression suddenly freezing. “Then… what about Yusuke-nii?”

Does he know who you are?

"And what kind of person is he?"

Chapter 995: Upgrade Begins

Although Suzuki Yusuke revealed Conan's identity to Akai Shuichi.

But Conan is an honest kid and didn't choose to tell Hondo Eisuke Suzuki's true identity.

"It seems Yusuke-nii is quite an amazing person..."

Hondo Eisuke didn't press the matter further. He looked up at the sky and sighed for a moment. Then, as if remembering something, he said, "By the way, something big seems to have happened at the FBI recently. The atmosphere is very somber. Someone might have been in trouble."

Yes, I directed and arranged it all myself.

Conan didn't want to delve deeper into this topic, lest he accidentally get some information out of her.

So, he's going to slip away.

......

the other side.

Dr. A Li's house.

Yusuke Suzuki has brought Ai Haibara back and invited her to stay the night.

He knew there would be a memorable moment tonight.

However, his memory of this famous scene is so vivid that there's really no need to watch it.

Moreover, if he were to touch it, this iconic scene might be lost.

So... it's more cost-effective to just send your wife home.

He has enough points now, and he can level up to level 5 when he gets back.

But since Ai Haibara has invited him, he won't refuse.

The difference between one day earlier or one day later isn't that significant.

After adapting to his Level 5 body and completing the theatrical version, he will devote himself to research.

A large number of routine cases can be left unprocessed.

The main storyline's rewards and the theatrical release are the real highlights.

"Yusuke, just say you want something to eat. Your stomach has been growling for ages."

Not long after sitting on the sofa, Ai Haibara, who had already showered and changed into her pajamas, spoke up.

Yusuke Suzuki wasn't embarrassed at all and stood up immediately. "Do you want to eat?"

The little girl took two steps back, her eyes full of wariness. "Don't even think about tricking me into getting fat!"

Yusuke Suzuki: "..."
