Detective Conan: Developing a younger version of Ran Eri, and the stunning Yukiko.

Page 50

“Well, Shiraishi-kun… I’m thinking we should hand the phone over to the police. After all, we’re just ordinary people, and we really can’t bear such a heavy responsibility.”

"We absolutely cannot hand them over to the police!"

Before Shiraishi could even reply, Conan shouted excitedly.

He distrusted the police from the bottom of his heart; in his view, the police were merely supporting characters used to highlight him.

Suddenly, he leaped forward, attempting to snatch his phone back from Yukiko Kudo's hand...

"boom!!!"

Yukiko Kudo reacted quickly, throwing a punch that landed squarely on Conan's face, sending him flying.

Conan felt like he was seeing stars. It was true that there's always someone who can subdue another. He had no chance against Yukiko Kudo.

Shiraishihara looked around and saw only the perfunctory Inspector Megure, the unremarkable Kogoro Mouri, and Shinichi Kudo who had turned into a child...

It seems that in the end I will have to shoulder this arduous task myself.

Shiraishi took the phone from Yukiko Kudo and said, "Give me the phone. I'm going to go and meet this criminal."

“Okay.” Yukiko Kudo immediately handed the phone to Shiraishihara.

Meanwhile, in the East Capital Railway Integrated Command Center.

"What? A bomb has been planted on the ring road?"

"That's right, we just received an urgent notification from the Metropolitan Police Department!"

"Understood! I will immediately stop all trolleys and launch a full investigation!"

"No! We absolutely cannot let the train stop! I heard that if the tram's speed drops below 60 kilometers per hour after 4 PM, the bomb will explode immediately!"

"What did you say?" In an instant, the entire East Capital Railway Command Center descended into chaos.

……

Shiraishi stepped forward and gently patted Inspector Megure on the shoulder as he was anxiously making a phone call.

"Inspector Megure, what's the situation now? Have you arranged for trains and pedestrians to be evacuated from the Toto Loop Line?"

"not yet."

"What's going on?"

Shiraishihara was somewhat annoyed. Even if the police's intelligence was lowered to highlight the protagonist's prowess, it shouldn't be lowered so ridiculously.

"Inspector Megure, is evacuating the train and people really that difficult?"

"That's not how it works... The prisoners claimed that as long as the train's speed was below 60 kilometers per hour, it would definitely cause an explosion, so the train had to keep running, which made it impossible to carry out evacuation work."

"But the prisoner also said that the explosion site was on the East Capital Circular Line. As long as the trains and people are evacuated, even if an explosion occurs, it shouldn't cause too much damage."

"what?"

Inspector Megure then suddenly realized that he seemed to have been fooled by the criminal.

……

Subsequently, the train and personnel were successfully evacuated from the East Metropolitan Loop Line, and then the explosion occurred.

The bomb was actually located between the tracks of the East Metropolitan Circular Line. Some of the tracks were damaged, but the damage was still within a controllable range.

After the explosion, Conan's phone rang. Shiraishi answered the call, and the culprit's furious voice came from the other end.

"Shinichi Kudo, why aren't you doing what I ask? You useless detective, you can't even solve my puzzles, you're a complete coward."

"I am not Shinichi Kudo!"

"Shinichi Kudo's mother, you're just as useless as Shinichi Kudo."

"I am not Shinichi Kudo's mother either."

"Then who exactly are you...?"

"My name is Shiraishihara, and I am a low-key, handsome, and intelligent high school detective."

"It's you!"

Just as the prisoner was about to unleash a torrent of curses, Shiraishihara interrupted him.

"Teiji Moriya, I don't have time to play games with you. It's about time you stopped and stopped causing trouble for everyone."

"How do you know..."

……

"Ding-dong ding-dong~~~"

Teiji Moriya opened the door and stared in astonishment at the people in front of him.

Inspector Megure and his team of officers.

"Teiji Moriya, you are hereby formally arrested on suspicion of committing multiple bombings!"

"You have absolutely no evidence."

Teiji Moriya resisted arrest with righteous indignation.

"..."

Inspector Megure gave his men a signal, and the officers immediately swarmed forward and subdued Teiji Moriya.

Faced with such a dangerous bomber, there was no need to worry about evidence; taking him into custody was the top priority.

After Teiji Moriya was taken into custody by the police, his residence was thoroughly searched, and the police found bomb construction blueprints and explosion location design drawings.

Based on these clues, the police carried out evacuation and bomb disposal operations at the locations where explosions might have occurred, thus successfully averting a crisis.

[After resolving the incident, the host receives the Persona Mask – Lion.]

Lion God: A lucky and auspicious beast worshipped in the Ryukyu region. Legend has it that it can protect families from demons and monsters.

Unique Ability: Electrocuted Porcelain.

After obtaining the new Persona, Shiraishi Hara naturally merged it with the previous Persona.

That is, the Back-to-Back Ghost and the Lion King are combined into one.

The host acquires a new Persona – Otrus.

Oculus: In Greek mythology, he is a two-headed giant dog located on the island of sunset at the end of the world.

Unique Ability: Body Subject to Ignition.

The time comes at night.

Although they couldn't go to the Beika Central Building to watch a midnight movie, Shiraishihara and Ran Mouri could still go somewhere else.

Shiraishihara and Ran Mouri visited the Shibuya Cinema, which is very friendly to young people and offers special discounts for students!

Shinichi Kudo was naturally not on this trip; however, Yukiko Kudo disrupted Shiraishihara and Ran Mouri's date.

The three of them stood in waiting room 333 of the Shibuya Cinema, waiting for the movie to start.

"Yukiko-neechan, what are you still doing here? You're bothering Ran and me!"

Shiraishi Hara thought Kudo Yukiko was really annoying; she was clearly deliberately preventing him from having a peaceful date with Mouri Ran.

"This was originally a date between Shinichi Kudo and Ran Mouri. Since Shinichi couldn't come, I came in his place."

As she spoke, Yukiko Kudo affectionately linked her arm with Ran Mouri's, striking a pose like that of best friends: "Ran, you won't dislike your older sister, will you..."

Ran Mouri is as kind as an angel, so naturally she wouldn't say anything that would hurt Yukiko Kudo.

Moreover, Kudo Yukiko was a woman she had always admired, and she had always been extremely friendly to Kudo Yukiko.

"Of course I don't mind... But, the midnight movies go on very late, so will Yukiko-neechan have to keep following me and Shiraishihara around?"

"That's precisely why I have to keep a close eye on you two, lest you take the opportunity to do things that only adults would do."

Upon hearing Yukiko Kudo's words, Ran Mouri's face instantly turned bright red.

"No way... Shiraishi-kun and I aren't lovers yet... We wouldn't do that kind of thing."

That being said, how could Ran Mouri's girlish, yearning gaze escape Yukiko Kudo's notice?

"I know, Xiaolan, you're a good girl, but some people are different. They're not well-behaved at all, they're rotten to the core, and they're especially good at bullying others!"

"Eh? Yukiko-neechan, are you talking about Shiraishi-kun?"

"Who else but him."

Yukiko Kudo glanced at Shiraishihara through Ran Mouri, taking the opportunity to sow discord.

"How could that be? Yukiko-neechan, you must have misunderstood Shiraishi-kun!"

"It's true! I experienced it myself..."

Yukiko Kudo recalled the moments she spent with Shiraishihara. Every time, Shiraishihara showed no mercy, tormenting her to the point of exhaustion, and showing no consideration whatsoever.

"Really, really?"

Ran Mouri looked at Shiraishihara with a suspicious gaze.

"Of course it's fake, Ran. Don't believe Yukiko's nonsense."

Shiraishi said irritably.

"Is that so?"

Although Yukiko Kudo and Shiraishihara each have their own version of events, Ran Mouri senses that their relationship is unusual.

But given Kudo Yukiko and Shiraishihara's identities, what kind of relationship could they possibly have? She really couldn't figure it out.

As the midnight movie started, there were very few viewers in the theater, mostly couples scattered around in different corners.

Yukiko Kudo deliberately sat between Ran Mouri and Shiraishi Hara, determined to separate them. She really went to great lengths for her ideal "daughter-in-law".

No. .

093. The gentle and elegant Hattori Shizuka, with exceptional service skills.

Chapter 93.

Ran Mouri stared intently at "The Legend of the Red Thread," deeply immersed in its romantic love story and completely absorbed in the plot.

Shiraishi Hara, however, had no interest whatsoever. This pure love story had no other elements that could pique his interest, and before long, he began to doze off and unknowingly drifted off to sleep.

Yukiko Kudo also found it extremely boring. As an actress, she did not think highly of "The Legend of the Red Thread," believing it was inferior to the films she had acted in when she was younger.

Sitting in her seat, feeling utterly bored, her gaze fell upon Shiraishihara, who had already closed his eyes and fallen asleep.

Seeing this, she couldn't help but regret her futile efforts. If Ran found Shiraishihara asleep, she would surely be disappointed.

"No, I can't let Shiraishihara be so comfortable. He wants to sleep, but I'm going to disturb him. I can't be the only one who has to endure this boring movie."

With that in mind, she reached out and gently patted Shiraishihara's shoulder in the dim light of the movie theater.

Shiraishi was sound asleep when he was suddenly woken up by being patted on the head. He opened his eyes groggily and found that it was Kudo Yukiko playing tricks on him.

"Is this interesting?"

Shiraishihara glanced helplessly at Kudo Yukiko.

"Hehe...Am I annoying you?"

"Knowingly committing the crime but still not stopping."

"Since I've already annoyed you, I don't care."

Yukiko Kudo playfully stuck out her tongue and patted the table a few times.

Shiraishihara grasped Kudo Yukiko's hand, saying with a wry smile:

"Yukiko-neechan, stop fooling around!" He felt that Kudo Yusaku's wife, after all these years, was still as quirky and mischievous as ever.

The commotion they made caught Ran Mouri's attention, and she looked at them with a puzzled expression.

"What are you doing?"

"Ah... I saw Shiraishi-kun dozing off, so I thought I'd wake him up."

"I see." Ran Mouri's attention was drawn back to the movie plot. "This movie is really interesting, don't you guys think?"
