Conan's other self

Ayumi, Mitsuhiko, and Genta thought for a while and found that they had no ideas and gave up. After all, Conan can answer these riddles very quickly.

But after waiting for a while, Conan didn't say anything.

Maplehara glanced at Conan and found that he was still distracted. Haihara Ai didn't seem to have any intention of speaking first, and the place suddenly became awkward.

"..."

After looking at Dr. Agasa and finding that the doctor was waiting expectantly for him to rescue him, Maplehara said:

"It's because the cursive style of the word "xi" looks like seventy-seven standing vertically."

"And Bai Shou means one out of a hundred." Haiyuan Ai continued.

"Oh..." Mitsuhiko thoughtfully added the new knowledge to his reserve, "I have thought before that you two know as much as Conan, but Conan is so quiet today..."

"Yes! Conan, what's wrong?" Ayumi asked with concern.

"Huh?" Conan woke up from his distraction and responded subconsciously, "No, it's nothing, I'm just thinking about something..."

"What!" Genta said, "Conan is so stupid today!"

"Conan looks a bit like Maplehara when he's quiet!" Mitsuhiko said, "...could it be that you two have switched identities?"

"Huh?"

"How is that possible," the famous detective Genta objected, "With a silly smile on his face, it must be Conan!"

Conan was trying to be cute at this time to cover up his worries. When he heard Genta's words, his expression suddenly stiffened.

Seeing that Conan was a little embarrassed, Dr. Ali asked him a carefully prepared question and helped him out: "Guess the next question! What should a person call his forty-fourth birthday?"

The new riddle immediately captured the attention of the schoolchildren.

"Forty-four years old..."

"The tip is that this is composed of one Chinese character and three katakana," Dr. Ali said proudly, "The character longevity can be ignored."

The primary school students gathered together and began to think about Dr. A Li's riddle. Haibara Ai glanced at Feng Yuan beside her and found that he seemed not interested as usual.

Conan on the other side thought for a moment and then showed a speechless expression.

"Doctor, although I guessed it," Conan looked at the doctor with dead fish eyes, "but this is too nutritious."

"Really?" Conan was the first to speak every time. Dr. Ali was not surprised, but looked at Fengyuan and Haibara Ai, "Then Xiao Kong and Xiao Ai, have you guessed it?"

Hui Yuan Ai shook his head.

"Doctor, I heard everything you whispered when you were moving the tent." Feng Yuan replied casually.

"..."

Dr. Agasa was a little speechless, but the riddle was originally prepared for Ayumi and the other three people, so he didn't care about it.

Seeing that Ayumi and others couldn't guess it, the doctor said: "Okay, the answer is revealed! Forty-four is exactly half of eighty-eight, right?"

"Um."

"Eighty-eight is rice, and the English word for rice is Rice." The doctor continued to explain, "Because it is half, it is Han Rice, which is half a bowl of rice!"

"..."

A gust of wind blew by, and the primary school students couldn't help but shrink.

…

The next day, the camping trip ended successfully.

The doctor did not forget his promise to the children and took a long detour, intending to take the children there to see the Twin Towers skyscraper.

Sitting in the middle row by the window, Yuan Tai moved uncomfortably and complained: "This seat is really too small."

"It's all because you sat in the back! The front seat is obviously empty!"

"Because it seems more interesting here!" Genta retorted to Mitsuhiko, "Ever since the doctor changed cars, we haven't sat together like this."

The doctor who was driving had a dark look on his face.

Before he changed his car, these children thought it was too crowded. Now that he had changed to a three-row car, they felt it was boring because it was not crowded...

"Yes," Ayumi agreed, "but I can't sit with Feng Yuan and Hai Yuan..."

"Because it's too crowded." Feng Yuan replied. He and Hai Yuan Ai sat in the last row.

"Hey, Conan," Genta moved again, "squeeze over a little bit."

"Please, Genta," Conan yawned, and then couldn't help complaining, "Who asked you to eat five bowls of rice early in the morning?"

Then he turned to Ayumi, squeezed in that direction and said, "I'm sorry, Ayumi, squeeze a little more."

Ayumi blushed and shrank.

After sitting a little more comfortably, Genta said: "Misuhiko, let's play a game?"

"Then let's play the 30-second guessing game." Mitsuhiko seemed to be prepared. He reached out and took out a stopwatch from his bag, "How about counting in your mind and pressing the stop button after 30 seconds?"

"Okay! Let's play together?" Yuantai agreed.

Except for the doctor who refused the game because he needed to drive, no one else said anything. The game starts soon.

The first person to play was Mitsuhiko who made suggestions, and he just happened to show everyone how to play. After counting to thirty, Mitsuhiko pressed the stop button. Looking at the numbers on the stopwatch, Mitsuhiko looked disappointed: "40 seconds! It's over 10 seconds!"

Next is Conan, 27 seconds.

"What a pity." Mitsuhiko said, almost thirty seconds later. "

Then there is Yuantai, 59 seconds.

Next is Ayumi, 30 seconds.

"Exactly 30 seconds!" Conan leaned over to look at the stopwatch in Ayumi's hand, a little surprised.

"Bravo!"

"It's just a coincidence..."

Mitsuhiko took the stopwatch from Ayumi and handed it to the back, "Then it's Maplehara-san's turn..."

Haiyuan Ai no longer looked out the window, but turned her head to look at Fengyuan curiously.

Like everyone else, Maplehara closed his eyes and started counting, then pressed the stop button.

Twenty-seven seconds exactly.

"It looks exactly like Conan!"

"As expected of twins!"

Conan was a little surprised, but after thinking about it, he felt that this was expected, after all, it was another himself.

Then the last one was Haiyuan Ai's turn, and Fengyuan handed over the stopwatch.

Unlike them, Hui Yuan Ai did not count out loud, but silently in his mind.

After pressing the stop button, Haiyuan Ai handed the stopwatch to Feng Yuan without even looking.

Mitsuhiko also poked his head and looked over.

Thirty seconds exactly.

"That's amazing!" Mitsuhiko exclaimed, "Just like Ayumi, it takes exactly thirty seconds! Are all girls good at this?"

"They all look like superpowers!" Yuantai also said.

"Thank you for the compliment." Haiyuan Ai seemed to be in a good mood.

The primary school students soon started playing other games. Fengyuan was a little curious and asked Haiyuan Ai softly: "How did you do it?"

"Want to know?"

"I think." Fengyuan said in a sincere tone.

"...It's just a few counts. When you started counting just now, I also counted it in my mind."

"I just happened to be lucky." Haiyuan Ai continued. She originally thought it would float around thirty seconds, but she didn't expect it to be exactly thirty seconds.

"You're committing a foul." Feng Yuan said in a low voice. According to the rules of the game, you have to count thirty numbers.

"Yes," Haiyuan Ai leaned closer and looked into Fengyuan's eyes, "Then... Mr. Detective, are you going to arrest me?"

"..."

"By the way, Conan!" At this time, Genta suddenly poked his head and looked at Conan, who was across from him at Mitsuhiko, "It was so late last night, who were you talking to on the phone?"

"ha?"

"When I got up to go to the bathroom, I happened to see you walking around with your cell phone..."

"I'm just waiting for news!" Conan argued, "I'm not talking to anyone on the phone."

"Whose news are you waiting for, Conan?" Ayumi asked.

"It's...it's news from Brother Shinichi," Conan scratched his hair in confusion, "He said he had something important to tell me, but he never said it."

"You can make a call." Fengyuan suggested directly.

"No, if you are rejected -" Conan replied without thinking, and then subconsciously stopped talking. The primary school students asked curiously, and Conan quickly thought of an excuse to deal with it.

In this cheerful atmosphere, the Scarab arrived in front of the Twin Skyscrapers.
