Conan: Above all force, there is truth!

Everything happened in a flash.

Upon seeing the gun in Ryūno's hand, Attorney Ito and the other slightly overweight prisoner widened their eyes instantly.

Before they could even speak, Longye appeared in front of them again and instantly knocked them both down.

From the moment Longye appeared in the attic to the moment he subdued all the prisoners, the entire process took less than two seconds.

The breathtaking scene before them, like something out of a movie, left Hattori Heiji and his companions utterly astonished.

Especially Toyama Kazuha, who gaped, completely bewildered by the situation.

While Hattori Heiji and the others were still stunned, Tatsuno had already tied up the three prisoners with rope.

To prevent any accidents, he also dislocated the arms of the three men.

The next moment, he slowly walked to Kazuha Toyama's side and broke the handcuffs on her hands.

"Miss Toyama, let's go. Ran has been waiting for you for a long time~"

After saying that, Ryūno led the still bewildered Toyama Kazuha down from the attic.

Only after Ryuno and the other man walked out of the room did Hattori Heiji slowly open his mouth: "Kudo...did you see how he defeated those three?!"

"No, I just have a feeling this guy's strength is getting more and more monstrous..."

"..."

After pondering for a few more seconds, Hattori Heiji suddenly remembered something. He immediately climbed to the back window and shouted to Tatsuno and the other man outside, "Takeda! Have you forgotten something?! We're still tied up!"

In his despairing gaze, Longye and the other person seemed not to hear his voice, but gradually disappeared from his sight.

"..."

……

ten minutes later

In a restaurant with a nostalgic atmosphere on the street.

Seeing Ryuno and Kazuha Toyama, Ran happily waved to them.

"You're finally here! Dad, we can order now!"

After saying that, Ran looked behind the two of them and asked in confusion, "Huh? Where are Conan and Heiji Hattori?"

Upon hearing this, Toyama Kazuha exclaimed in surprise, "Ah! Oh no, I forgot that they're still tied up!"

As she spoke, she prepared to turn around and return to the Ito residence.

Seeing this, Ryūno sat down in a chair and chuckled, "Don't worry~ Mr. Kusunoki is just lying on the ground pretending to be dead. He'll help Hattori and the others get untied. Besides, I've already called the police, and they'll be here soon."

Upon hearing Longye's words, Yuanshan and Ye breathed a sigh of relief and turned to sit down.

Xiao Lan also spoke up, "Should we wait for the two of them?"

"No need. Knowing their personalities, they'll definitely have to go back to the station with the police to give their statements." Longye waved his hand casually.

Hearing this, Uncle Mori nodded: "That's right, let's eat first, we don't need to wait for the other two. I'm starving!"

Seeing this, Xiaolan and the other person nodded.

Indeed, both Heiji Hattori and Conan seem to enjoy going to the police station.

With that thought in mind, they stopped worrying and started looking at the menu.

……

Evening

Tatsuno's Home

Ran and Kazuha sat in the living room, having a small "girls' meeting".

"Ah~ Ran, I really envy you! You have no idea, Heiji just throws everything away the moment he sees a case, unlike Takeda..."

Xiaolan smiled gently: "After all, he's a detective like my dad, so it's normal for him to be interested in cases."

"Hmph! That guy doesn't understand girls at all!"

At this point, Kazuha looked around and suddenly asked with a smile, "Ran~ Could it be... that you and Ryūno have been living together all along?"

"Hmm... Ah, after all, he's the only one in the Ryūno family..."

Seeing Xiaolan blush, a hint of ambiguous amusement flashed in He Ye's eyes: "Oh? Could it be that you two have already..."

Upon hearing this, Xiaolan lowered her head shyly and chuckled a few times.

Upon seeing this, Toyama Kazuha's lips curved into a wide smile.

now

Maori Detective Agency.

Uncle Maori drank a few beers and went to bed early.

Heiji Hattori and Conan had just returned from the police station.

"Speaking of which, that guy Takeda actually figured out that Mr. Kusukawa was faking his death... No wonder he didn't help us untie the ropes and handcuffs back then."

"Yeah, that guy's abilities are terrifying..."

Chapter 139 Shopping at a mall and buying things are two different things

At this point, Hattori Heiji suddenly asked, "Kudo, I think it's only a matter of time before that Takeda figured out your identity, given his intelligence."

Hearing this, Conan smiled helplessly: "He's already seen through it."

"What?!" Upon hearing this, Hattori Heiji's eyes widened immediately.

Seeing Heiji Hattori's terrified expression, Conan chuckled, "Don't worry, Kaito Kid covered for me. Tatsuno no longer suspects my identity."

"Kaito Kid? The one from the Egg of Memories?"

Because Heiji Hattori was involved in a minor car accident during the previous incident, he was unable to participate in the subsequent events.

Therefore, Conan told him in detail what happened next.

This includes the Egg of Memories, Natsumi Kosaka's background, and the reason why Kaito Kid came to help him.

After listening, Hattori Heiji breathed a sigh of relief after some thought.

"That's great... Luckily, he doesn't know who you are."

Hearing Hattori Heiji's words, Conan narrowed his eyes: "By the way, what does this have to do with you? Why did you seem relieved?"

Hattori Heiji scratched his head with his fingers and whispered, "Haha... a little bit..."

"A little?"

"I'm a little scared..."

"..."

After hearing Heiji Hattori's explanation, Conan's mind flashed back to the scenes of Tatsuno dismantling the door and subduing the criminal today, and he fell silent instantly.

"Hmm, I think I can understand how you feel..."

After a moment of silence, Conan asked, "By the way, Hattori, did you come here just for a vacation?"

"Well, I guess so. We finally get a long holiday, and we don't really have anything to do. But..."

"but?"

"Actually, when I visited Mr. Nanchuan today, I heard something."

In the fourth chome of Beika town, a family frequently saw suspicious figures moving around their house at night.

Mr. Nanchuan asked me to take on this case and investigate it. Since you have nothing else to do, why don't you come with me?

After hearing Hattori's words, Conan shook his head: "I can't go. The school is organizing a field trip tomorrow."

"what?!"

……

The next morning

Mihua Department Store

Looking at the excited Xiaolan and the other girl, Longye sighed slightly.

Shopping with a girl is a truly terrifying thing.

Or should I find an excuse to slip away first?

Just then, Xiaolan realized that Longye hadn't caught up yet, and turned around to call out, "Longye! Over here~"

"..."

Just as Longye gritted his teeth and dragged himself forward, a man wearing a gray hoodie walked straight towards him.

Longye immediately noticed the man.

Just as the man passed by Longye, he seemingly casually slipped a note into his pocket.

In that instant, Longye grabbed the man's wrist and slammed him to the ground.

"boom"

Upon hearing this voice, not only Xiaolan and her companion, but also everyone around them turned their attention to this place.

After being thrown to the ground, the man immediately begged for mercy: "I'm not a thief! I just..."

Upon hearing this, Longye frowned, but he did not suspect that the man was a thief.

After all, what kind of thief would slip things to someone else?

At this moment, the man spoke softly, "I've been asked to give you a note. Other than that, I really don't know anything!"

Seeing that the man didn't seem to be lying, Longye memorized the man's face and then released him.

After being released, the man immediately got up from the ground and ran away.

Just then, Ran and Kazuha walked over: "What happened, Ryūno? Who was that person just now?"

Longye shook his head: "I don't know either. He slipped a note into my pocket."

After saying that, Longye took out a note from his pocket.
