Conan: When Shinjiu and Maolilan swap bodies

This matter is far from over.

------

P.S.: I rewrote the previous chapter and also made some changes to the chapter before that. I suggest everyone take a look again. It was indeed my mistake. This extra chapter is compensation.

(╥﹏╥) My drafts are gone...

Chapter 125 Perhaps Things Won't Be So Bad

"I'm sorry, I don't want to leave my home."

Under Conan's gaze, Ran Mouri shook her head, rejecting Shuichi Akai's proposed witness protection plan.

"You should have seen his face, right?"

Shuichi Akai's sharp gaze fell on Ran Mouri through the rearview mirror, and this scrutinizing feeling made Ran's heart clench involuntarily.

Is this what it feels like to face the real FBI?

Keen, terrifying, dangerous.

Similar to when facing Gin, even the slightest mistake could lead to utter ruin.

She nodded and then shook her head.

"I saw that person smoking in the dark, wearing a hat, with silver hair. It must be the person I met in the elevator this afternoon..."

"His name is Gin, and he's a very terrifying guy. Knowing his style, once he finds out you're not dead, he definitely won't let you go."

Shuichi Akai recounted Gin's dangerousness as if the previous conversation had never happened.

“Not only you, but your father will also be implicated.”

The organization's policy is to rather kill a thousand innocent people than let one guilty person go free.

They'll take care of more than just Ran Mouri; they might even take care of Kogoro Mouri as well.

Ran Mouri remained silent for a long time this time.

She gripped her trouser legs tightly with both hands, lowered her head slightly, and let her hair fall down her shoulders.

The girl's face was pale, and her lips were pressed into a straight line, revealing the extreme turmoil in her heart.

"Can you give me some time to think about it? This is a huge matter, I can't make a decision right now..."

She didn't know what Shuichi Akai had discovered or what he suspected.

She immersed herself in the role of Ran Mouri, who was "completely unaware," portraying the state of mind she would be in if she knew all this.

Ran Mouri is not the type of person who would involve her family or parents in danger, and her character doesn't allow her to refuse again after mentioning her father's safety.

At the very least, you should discuss it properly with your parents.

She sighed in her heart.

There are some things I need to be honest with my father about.

Conan will no longer live at home, and after today, there will be no more Sleeping Kogoro.

From now on, if Dad gets another case, he'll have to rely on himself.

"Perhaps things aren't so bad..."

Shinichi Kudo spoke up at the right moment, breaking the overly oppressive atmosphere inside the car.

"Xiao Lan, do you remember? A year ago, we saved a silver-haired serial killer."

Ran Mouri paused slightly, her memory drifting back to a year ago as he recounted his story.

She did indeed save a silver-haired man.

The man with the gun accidentally fell down the stairs, and she instinctively grabbed him.

"That's Vermouth, your teacher Chris Vineyard. Gin put a bulletproof vest on you probably because of her."

This speculation is reasonable.

Vermouth would disguise him, so naturally she couldn't just do nothing after learning that Ran had been kidnapped.

She couldn't openly help Shinichi Kudo, but Ran was her student, so she could use that as a reason to make a request to Gin.

The bullet that struck Gin's arm from behind most likely originated from Vermouth.

Shuichi Akai seemed to be deep in thought.

If that's the case, it makes sense.

As for whether she had already woken up... it's normal for a girl to pretend to be unconscious to protect herself.

That's the smart thing to do.

However, we still need to keep an eye on it.

Gin had clearly held back with that bullet, which bothered him greatly.

Gin will definitely reappear. What if he suddenly becomes a pervert and takes a liking to a high school student?

The girl looked up, her face showing a blank expression, as if her mind had gone completely blank from shock.

She never imagined that Vermouth thought she was an angel for such a reason.

She had absolutely no idea that she had actually saved Vermouth...

He only saved her once, does that make him an angel to her?

Ran Mouri sighed inwardly.

The teacher is actually quite similar to Qingze.

They struggled in the darkness, sought survival in danger, and tried their best to guard the pure land in their hearts in a filthy and dark world.

Their world lacks pure goodwill, so when someone extends a helping hand without hesitation, it becomes a form of salvation.

Ran Mouri understood perfectly, but her face remained blank, revealing an extremely confused sense of unreality.

"But...but my teacher is clearly a woman..."

“She’s very good at disguise. The silver-haired man we rescued was her in disguise… Mr. Amuro who appeared that day was probably also her in disguise.”

Ran Mouri fell silent again.

Performances need to be moderate; at this moment, Ran Mouri needs to be bewildered.

Ran Mouri remained silent, and Conan sighed inwardly.

This happened so suddenly, it takes time to accept it.

It was also his fault; he thought that Xiaolan would be safe since she was with the rest of the school.

He should have told Xiaolan not to go out.

Since things have come to this, all we can do is look forward.

Knowing that Ran Mouri was out of danger, Ai Haibara, sitting in the Beetle, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

It’s okay if it’s okay, it’s okay if it’s okay.

After the initial shock subsided, she began to grit her teeth.

She will absolutely not give Shinichi Kudo any more antidotes until a permanent cure is developed!

"Doctor, let's go back to the hotel."

It's already past midnight, and I'm really exhausted after being so worried for so long.

"it is good……"

After watching Ran return to the hotel, Conan turned and left to meet Heiji Hattori, who was getting out of the police car.

"Thank you, Hattori."

The reason why we were able to force Gin to retreat with police cars this time was thanks to Hattori Heiji.

"I wasn't much of a help either," Hattori Heiji sighed.

They had several plans in mind, intending to use this opportunity to turn the tables and capture Gin.

As a result, Gin chose to take hostages and completely ignored their plan...

It's no wonder Ran Mouri is blamed.

Even if Ran Mouri doesn't go out, Gin will take other people hostage.

Classmates, teachers, or strangers.

As long as Gin has hostages, they will be subject to their control.

Shinichi Kudo couldn't bear to see others die because of him.

They were only fortunate to have discovered them and given chase in time; otherwise, if Gin had made thorough preparations and lured them into an ambush, it's hard to say whether Shinichi Kudo would still be standing here.

Not many people knew about Ran Mouri's disappearance, but the teacher in charge of the group definitely knew.

The teacher breathed a huge sigh of relief when she returned safely.

If this person were to die, his teaching career would suffer a major setback.

Thank goodness, thank goodness, they're back safe and sound.

"Sorry, teacher."

Ran Mouri apologized to her teacher, feeling deeply ashamed.

Many things cannot take into account the feelings of too many people.

Her act of using herself as a hostage to help Aozawa was harmful to Shinichi, and equally harmful to the teachers responsible for their safety.

Fortunately, things are still developing within an acceptable range.

"You've been frightened too, go back to your room and rest. If you can't go on tomorrow's trip, just rest well at the hotel..."

The teacher asked her a few words of concern and then took her back to her room.

Chapter 126 Why Don't You Protect Me Like This Before?

It was already past midnight, but the room lights were still on. When she saw her return, Sonoko rushed over to her with tears in her eyes.

"Xiaolan, where did you go? I can't get through to you on the phone, you suddenly disappeared, I was so worried..."

"It's nothing, I just went for a walk. See, I'm perfectly fine, aren't I?"

Ran Mouri closed the door with her foot, trying to calm her friend down.

Sonoko Suzuki's emotions came and went quickly.

Why is your body so stiff?

"Maybe something on me is bothering you."

"What's on you?" Sonoko Suzuki pretended to touch him.

Ran Mouri quickly dodged her groping, "Stop it, stop it, it's getting late, go to sleep!"

She was still wearing the bulletproof vest, and after Shuichi Akai checked it and found no problems, he gave it back to her.

They also made her wear it regularly to avoid potential crises from the organization later on.

Of course, I can't tell Sonoko about this.

Sonoko Suzuki stood with her hands on her hips, cheeks puffed out, glaring angrily at her friend.

"Do you remember what you said during the day? I'm waiting for you to tell me what exactly happened between you and Shinichi?"

"I remember, I remember..." Ran Mouri was embarrassed; Sonoko's gossip-loving nature was simply hopeless.

"Let me go take a shower first..."

"Go on, hurry up!"

Upon entering the restroom, Ran Mouri took out her phone and sent a message to Aozawa.
