I'm in Detective Conan, but it's a chaotic battlefield.

Looking at the police car parked at the gate, Kimie Tsujimura suddenly had an idea.

If she had used her body to distract the brat, would the outcome have been completely different?

After all, apart from him, none of the detectives present could figure out her method of murder.

As Kimie Tsujimura was thinking, she was pushed into the police car, and the door slammed shut behind her.

Heiji Hattori stood at the entrance, watching Mrs. Tsujimura being put into a police car, and felt a pang of unease.

He had witnessed prisoners being put into police cars far too many times.

However, this time was different because he didn't catch the murderer. Not only that, he also misjudged the direction and almost let the real culprit escape.

This made Hattori Heiji very frustrated.

They came here to challenge Shinichi Kudo, but someone else stole the spotlight from them, which is really hard to accept.

Moreover, this guy seemed to have found the culprit without doing much investigation, which made Hattori Heiji, who was repeatedly experimenting with fishing line, feel a little embarrassed.

How exactly did he find the clues?

Hattori Heiji looked at Chen Nuo's profile, his eyes sparkling with excitement in addition to curiosity.

.

Chen Nuo had no idea that Hattori Heiji had already written him down in his little notebook. Although he was not yet at the same level as Kudo Shinichi, he was still one of the targets that he had to compete with.

Chen Nuo was later taken home by a police car from the Metropolitan Police Department.

Ever since Xiaolan took the wrong phone, she had been too embarrassed to talk to him, and she didn't even come out to say goodbye when they parted.

By the way, the soul capture was very successful this time. Although it didn't give any new skills, the teamwork in mining improved the efficiency of the mine quite a bit.

Just looking at the employees working hard at the mine, Chen Nuo felt a strong sense of satisfaction, like he was a hands-off boss.

However, what's a bit strange is that the second unlocked Hokushin Ittō-ryū actually surpassed Shindō-ryū in terms of experience points.

From this perspective, it seems that the probability of mining ore is completely random.

When Chen Nuo got home, he received an apology text message from Xiao Lan as soon as he entered the door.

The content is a bit long, but the sentences are fluent, so it must have taken a long time to write before sending it over.

The gist of it is that she has caused him trouble during this time. Because of Shinichi Kudo's appearance, she now knows that Chen Nuo and Shinichi only look a little alike. She also said that she will not bother him anymore. At the end, she mentioned that she would ask her mother to do her best to help him resolve the dojo issue as compensation.

Chen Nuo returned his smiley face.

Then he sat down and breathed a sigh of relief. Although there were several twists and turns in the process of solving the case, it was eventually explained clearly.

This way, he can focus all his energy on the Black Organization.

They won't be held back by worrying about involving Xiaolan anymore.

Thinking of this, Chen Nuo looked down at his pants. The only drawback was that the price he paid seemed a bit high. Little Chen Nuo had been bullied terribly just now.

But then again.

Xiaolan's hands are so soft; you can feel their amazing softness even through the fabric.

Her panicked yet forgetful expression, where she forgot to let go, only made her more...

Huh?

Chen Nuo suddenly came to his senses.

That's someone else's childhood sweetheart, how can you have such wild thoughts?

Hmm... let's not think about it until we deal with the Black Organization.

Chen Nuo thought Shirley would be waiting for him at the dojo, after all, she had threatened on the phone that she would turn Chen Nuo into a specimen.

But when I returned to the temple, I couldn't find her. I called her several times, but she didn't answer.

However, there were several home-style dishes on the table that were still warm, and the rice in the rice cooker was cooked to Chen Nuo's preferred softness.

This all makes it seem like the girlfriend is angry but still cares about him.

Is this also part of acting?

Chen Nuo cooperated, sending some sweet words that barely met the average standard via text message, and then tossed the phone aside and ignored it.

Several days passed. Shiho Miyano hadn't contacted him, and no one knew what she was busy with. Gin, on the other hand, was quite satisfied with his performance and kept asking him how the Kazama Group's affairs were progressing.

They also said that once he passes the assessment, there is a very important task for him to do.

Chen Nuo clicked his tongue, thinking that even if he wanted to avoid doing this "dangerous-sounding" mission, he would still have to postpone dealing with the Kazama Group.

Shouldn't we wait until our strength improves further?

And so, a few days later, one morning, Chen Nuo was at the dojo familiarizing himself with kendo skills.

Then she received a call from Eri Kisaki's assistant, Midori Kuriyama, who said that Attorney Kisaki happened to have time today and asked if Chen Nuo could change the agreed date to today.

After Chen Nuo nodded in agreement, he quickly tidied himself up and headed out to the agreed-upon coffee shop.

He was actually a little bit looking forward to it.

On one hand, I wanted to see what Eri Kisaki, the lawyer who is very charming in the original work, would be like in the real world.

Also, he remembered that there seemed to be a related case involving the café and Eri Kisaki.

Who knows, we might capture a new soul.

.

At the same time, at the Mori Detective Agency.

Kogoro Mouri was fast asleep, sprawled on his desk, which was littered with cigarette butts and empty beer bottles.

Conan appeared to be lying on the sofa reading a comic book, but he was actually secretly glancing at Ran, who was humming a song while cleaning.

Xiaolan seemed to be in a good mood.

Conan thought she must be so happy because she heard that he had promised to go and explain things to her in the next few days.

But the more this happened, the more Conan felt uneasy.

Because he might have to deceive Xiaolan again.

However, he can't be entirely blamed. After that case, Conan told Professor Agasa about it and even drank some baijiu (a type of Chinese liquor) under the professor's supervision.

However, even after drinking the entire bottle of baijiu, he still couldn't return to his original state.

Dr. Agasa said that he may have developed antibodies, but research could be conducted on his body and the strong liquor, which might lead to the discovery of an antidote to restore his health.

However, this requires a lot of experimentation and trial and error.

In other words, he will probably have to continue living as a child for some time.

Fortunately, the timing of this transformation was perfect, clearing up the misunderstanding between Xiaolan and Chen Nuo. She finally realized that Chen Nuo simply looked like her.

That way, Xiaolan won't bother Chen Nuo anymore, right?

Conan is actually quite afraid that if those two spend too much time together, he might find out that Ran already has a child when he grows up and comes back.

Just then, Xiaolan finished her daily cleaning and went into her room.

When she reappeared, she had changed into a new outfit, as if she was about to go out.

Conan didn't notice at first.

But after just one casual glance, his eyes immediately became alert.

He saw that Xiaolan was wearing a light blue uniform skirt, her long black hair fell naturally, the uniform that hugged her shoulders outlined the youthful shape of her chest, and below the skirt that hung down past her thighs were two beautiful, white and slender legs.

Let's look down further.

Beyond those slender, delicate ankles, you can see a pair of fair, bare feet in wedge sandals. Xiaolan must have just taken a shower; her clean little feet still have a hint of moisture on them, pink and tender, looking like an ice cream on a hot summer day, making you want to put them in your mouth to cool off.

Although she wasn't wearing makeup, she had applied a thin layer of light-colored lip gloss.

Moreover, as she passed by the sofa, a faint peach-scented perfume wafted from her.

Although the outfit looks mature, it can't completely hide Xiaolan's naivety. Instead, it makes people subconsciously think that she is a female college student who has just entered the workforce and become an office lady.

A naive young girl trying hard to act like an adult can easily touch most men's G-spot.

Something is wrong!

Conan immediately dropped his comic book and chased after him.

"Ran-neechan, where are you going?" Conan shouted from the top of the stairs on the second floor.

Ran, who had already reached the halfway point up the stairs, was startled by Conan. She turned around and put her fair finger to her lips: "Keep your voice down, don't wake Daddy up."

Conan became even more suspicious upon seeing this.

He walked over and pretended to be a child: "Do you want to go to the movies? I want to come with you."

Xiaolan: "No, I'm going on a date."

"Dating?"

Ran nodded: "That's right, I'm going on a date with Shinichi, but Dad will be angry if he finds out, so you have to keep it a secret for me."

Conan, with his hands behind his back, smiled obediently and said, "I understand. Then hurry up and go, don't be late."

"Okay, you can continue reading your comics."

Xiaolan seemed to breathe a sigh of relief as she walked downstairs. When she arrived at the entrance of the firm on the first floor, she straightened her skirt again before leaving.

Conan leaned against the second-floor window, watching Ran's receding figure, his face inexplicably turning green.

Conan thought to himself, "I'm perfectly fine right here, how could you possibly be on a date with Shinichi Kudo?"

Damn it, when did Xiaolan become such a liar?

Hmm? Why did you say "also"?

Conan shook his head, refocusing his attention.

He thought about it for a moment, since he had just cleared up the misunderstanding with Chen Nuo a few days ago, it couldn't possibly be Chen Nuo.

But who could it be? Could it be that she's met someone who looks a lot like me these past few days?

Conan's mind was filled with a series of thoughts, which were then rejected one by one.

Finally, he decided it would be better to secretly follow them and see what kind of person this so-called Shinichi Kudo really was.
