I'm in Detective Conan, and the system has appointed Batman.

"Me? No need, I'll just watch the J-League myself these next few days!"

Conan waved his hands frantically and hurriedly explained.

"I'm staying with Yukiko and the others for the next few days..."

Hearing this, Ran Mouri blinked and asked curiously.

"Huh, really?"

"But Aunt Yukiko told me that they are taking a plane abroad this morning?"

"If we calculate the time now, Aunt Yukiko and the others may no longer be in Japan."

Conan: ?

So you're going abroad today?

Why did they have to choose today? Weren't we supposed to leave this weekend?

Conan's face darkened.

He felt like he was being raised in a free-range manner, with his parents not even explaining such things to him, which immediately made him feel somewhat helpless. However, his quick wit as a famous detective also came into play at that moment.

Without thinking, he pointed at Chen En and said.

"I'm going to stay at Brother Chen En's manor for the next few days!"

"Although Brother Chen En is going to Hyogo Prefecture with Brother Hattori to watch the Koshien baseball finals, there is an old butler at Brother Chen's manor. Ai is being taken care of by that old butler, so he definitely doesn't need me. Why not add me to the mix?"

As he spoke, he turned his head to look at Chen En, raised his eyebrows, and tried to give Chen En a hint.

"Right? Brother Chen En?"

Weren't we usually going to Professor Agasa's house around this time?

Chen En blinked, but did not deny it. He simply took a sip of coffee and said...

"No problem, I'll pick him up and take him to my place tomorrow night."

This reaction made Ai Haibara click her tongue in disappointment.

This immediately made Conan slightly angry.

Are you happy that I'm caught in this hellish situation?

Conan was somewhat indignant.

However, the thought that her future support outfits would have to be obtained from Ai Haibara's side immediately changed her mindset.

Don't ask, it's just that the mountains are high and the roads are long, and time will tell. Sooner or later, there will be a chance to turn the tables.

But if I miss tomorrow's J-League match, it's really over. Who knows when I'll be able to see such a grand event like the J-League again? I'll be really sad if there aren't any support items then, OK?

"Then I'll take the garden back first. Auntie should be waiting for someone at this hour."

Chen En glanced at his watch one last time and said calmly.

"Ai, Sonoko, get in the car."

"We'll go first."

Chapter 1098 The Sudden Explosion

Ran Mouri and Kazuha Toyama waved goodbye to En Chen and Sonoko Suzuki.

Having thoroughly enjoyed her detective work today, Sonoko Suzuki waved goodbye with a smile before getting into Chen En's car. As Chen En's car started, it quickly disappeared from sight.

Seeing this, Conan couldn't help but complain.

"Why does that guy only drive so slowly when he's carrying Sonoko?"

"Damn it, he really forgets his brothers now that he has a girlfriend."

Heiji Hattori, standing next to Conan, glanced at him, stroked his chin, and simply said...

"By the way, I haven't booked a hotel yet today."

"Why don't we just stay at your place tonight and save ourselves the trouble of having to travel to another place to meet up the day after tomorrow... I'd also like to hear what you've been up to while I was away."

He has always acknowledged the high crime rate in Beika Town.

Although he had only been gone for a few days, he believed that many cases must have occurred in Beika Town in just those few days, and that unlucky Conan had definitely taken them all.

Although you can't personally farm case experience packs to increase your detective level, farming Conan's accounts has the same effect.

Conan put his hands in his pockets and glanced at Hattori Heiji.

Haki Heiji, you bastard...

I haven't settled the score with you for making a fool of me this afternoon. When we get back to the Mouri Detective Agency, you'd better wait and I'll kick you into a pig's head with a soccer ball!

The eye contact between the two famous detectives from Kanto and Kansai was naturally unknown to outsiders.

However, Hattori Heiji's words made Toyama Kazuha nod slightly.

That's not wrong.

It's already this late, and if we book a hotel nearby, it might be a little late. Since we're going to watch the Koshien final together, let's stay together tonight and have a little get-together.

It's probably not a bad thing; they've done it quite a few times before.

Although they had some reservations about Hattori Heiji and Toyama Kazuha choosing to stay at the Mori Detective Agency instead of a proper hotel.

However, after seeing Ran Mouri smile and agree, Kogoro Mouri...

He sighed and acquiesced to their actions.

Fine, I'll stay here then.

The Mori Detective Agency isn't short of room for so many people.

Anyway, since Heiji Hattori and Conan will be sleeping on the floor and won't be taking his bed, it doesn't matter if there's one more or one less. As long as Ran doesn't mind sleeping in the same bed as Kazuha, that's fine.

The group returned to the Mori Detective Agency in a grand procession.

However, just as Kogoro Mouri opened the door to the second floor of the Mouri Detective Agency, intending to check the voicemail for any requests sent while he was away that day...

The phone rang abruptly at that moment.

A hint of doubt appeared in his eyes; he wondered who was calling him at this time.

However, Kogoro Mouri's quick wit kicked in, and he immediately realized that some wealthy client must have called him at this time to make a request.

It's a bit unusual for them to call at this hour.

But among the many oddballs that Kogoro Mouri encountered, this was already considered early.

Watching Kogoro Mouri walk towards the phone.

Conan also pulled Heiji Hattori into a small room next door to check the accounts.

Kazuha Toyama watched as the two detectives, who had walked to the side, seemed to be whispering to each other, and sighed.

"Heiji and Conan really have a good relationship."

Ran Mouri, who was brewing tea for Kazuha Toyama, peeked out and said.

"...That's true."

"Is it because Heiji and Shinichi look alike? Or is it because they are both famous detectives? I don't think Conan ever whispers to me like this."

Isn't she the kind of older sister type who's popular with kids?

Hearing this, Toyama Kazuha twitched the corners of his mouth and said with a hint of helplessness.

Even if you say that...

"But Conan often whispers with Mr. Chen En, doesn't he? Maybe Conan simply enjoys talking to those famous detectives. The kids around him seem to be the same way."

You know what, it's true.

Ran Mouri immediately realized what was going on when she thought of the many members of the Junior Detective League.

Does this mean that these days you need to work as a part-time pretty girl detective to win children's affection?

Indeed, this theory has a long way to go...

While everyone was busy with their own things.

Kogoro Mouri, who had just picked up the phone, asked in a somewhat puzzled tone.

"What are you trying to say to me? I don't understand a word you're saying!"

His words immediately caught the attention of Conan and Hattori Heiji, who had just finished settling accounts.

At that moment, the two famous detectives from Kanto and Kansai simultaneously peeked out from around the corner of the corridor, looking in the direction of the Mouri Detective Agency, seemingly puzzled as to who Mouri Kogoro was talking to.

Even Kazuha Toyama and Ran Mouri were drawn to Kogoro Mouri.

"...Hey, hey, hey, you're not kidding me, are you?"

"A bomb? At this time? No, the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department is cracking down on bombs so hard, where did you get the bomb from? And why are you telling me this?"

Kogoro Mouri said in surprise.

At this moment, Heiji Hattori and Conan finally realized that this was a crime warning sent by a criminal, indicating that someone was trying to provoke Kogoro Mouri, the world's greatest detective.

They immediately moved closer to Kogoro Mouri, trying to hear the sounds coming from inside his receiver.

The person on the other end of the phone, whose voice was clearly disguised, continued speaking.

"It's none of your business where I got the bomb."

"But I have to tell you that I have planted a bomb somewhere, which will detonate at 3:30 pm tomorrow. If you want to stop the explosion, you will have to crack the code I gave you."

Kogoro Mouri frowned, stood up abruptly, and shouted angrily.

"Are you kidding me? Stop saying such hurtful things to me!"

"If you bring up this kind of thing again, I'm calling the police right now!"

However, the threatening person on the other end of the phone showed no fear whatsoever, only a cold laugh.
