Conan: I can hear the murderer's voice

Conan, unable to calm down, spoke with thorns:

"Gray, you are too cold-blooded."

"The organization's sniper's gun is probably pointed at Xiaolan. Don't waste my time!"

Ai, who was interrupted from watching Higo's match and was inexplicably scolded, did not tolerate Conan at all:

"Oh, you care so much about that girl. But the person she likes should be Lin Xuan."

This sentence made Conan feel heartbroken. He grabbed Xiao Ai's right arm tightly, causing the latter to frown:

"The organization is coming for me, and I don't want to implicate innocent people."

"I know you are secretly developing an antidote. Even if the effect is unstable, give me the antidote for APTX4869."

The detective already had several plans in mind.

For example, he could make himself look like Haibara, or ask the girl for an antidote whose effect was not stable so that he could temporarily turn back into Kudo Shinichi.

Only by finding a way to lure away the members of the organization that monitors the office can the Maori father and daughter have a chance to be saved.

No matter what plan Conan wants to carry out, he needs Haibara's help.

But Huiyuan just felt confused:

"So, I told you that the elderly couple who bought the house were definitely not members of the organization."

The atmosphere in the room became increasingly tense due to the two people's different opinions. The doctor carefully tried to smooth things over and said:

"Shinichi insists that the couple is related to the organization, but Ai-chan says it doesn't matter. Why don't we go to the vicinity of that house and take a look at the situation?"

"Maybe there will be some new discoveries."

If it was traced back to Dr. Agasa who took in the shrunken Miyano Shiho, the doctor would still be put on the organization's assassination list, so he decided to take the risk tonight.

So the doctor took the two elementary school students and drove the Beetle to the vicinity of the suspicious single-family building.

Before getting off the car, Conan saw from afar a high school girl wearing casual clothes and with conspicuous alopecia on her forehead walking into the courtyard of the house.

"Lan?! Why are you here?"

Conan's brows were furrowed, and his chest heaved violently.

【Why did Xiaolan come? 】

[The organization discovered that I was aware of their actions and was preparing to attack Xiaolan? ]

Although the professor only suggested observing the situation, Conan's concern for his childhood sweetheart made him open the car door and rush over.

Of course before leaving he did not forget to glare at Huibara fiercely.

"You're wasting your time because you don't believe my reasoning."

"If Xiaolan gets hurt in any way, I will never forgive you in my life!"

Looking at Conan's back as he rushed over, the doctor asked the girl in the passenger seat with a melancholy look on his face:

"Xiao Ai, are you really okay?"

After being tormented by Conan for no apparent reason, Huiyuan could only watch the idol competition on the narrow screen of her mobile phone. She said unhappily:

"That couple has absolutely nothing to do with the organization."

"Doctor, advise that egomaniac to see a psychiatrist."

"I think he's going to drive himself crazy because of his jealousy towards Lin Xuan."

Conan didn't have time to stop Xiaolan from entering the building rented by the suspicious person. At this moment, he was standing in the courtyard of a residential building.

There was no light at all in the whole house, and the wide-open door at the entrance was like a monster's open mouth, waiting for its prey to fall into its trap.

Conan took a deep breath.

[Lan, don't be afraid, I'll come to rescue you right away]

He pushed open the crosshairs of the watch-shaped tranquilizer gun, ready to shoot at any moment.

After careful inspection, it was found that the enemy and Xiaolan were not on the first floor.

There were undisguised footsteps heard overhead, and Conan held his breath as he stepped on the narrow stairs.

He walked lightly and made almost no sound as he reached the second floor of the house.

Even the second floor was dark, without any lighting.

Conan tried hard to recall the layout of the house when the salesperson took him to see a house last time, and reminded himself silently at the same time.

[Those ruthless killers are hiding in the dark, and we must not be discovered by them]

But the next second, "Bang!!!"

Gunshots were heard in the darkness, and the smell of gunpowder could be faintly smelled!

Conan turned around quickly.

[Left? Damn! I was discovered so quickly!]

The detective also pointed the watch-shaped tranquilizer gun in the direction where the sound came from.

However, when colorful ribbons fell on his body one after another, Conan Edogawa suddenly realized that his reasoning might have been wrong from the beginning.

Yusaku pressed the switch, and gentle light instantly filled the entire corridor.

Yukiko held a firework cannon in her hand and showed a smug expression to her confused son:

"Shin-chan, no, Conan!"

"Long time no see, do you miss your aunt?"

The prank was successful. She excitedly went forward and hugged her son in her arms. Conan asked in a trembling voice:

"What exactly happened? Can someone explain it to me?"

Yusaku coughed awkwardly and said in a low voice:

"Yukiko was bored and wanted to play a trick on you, so I had to accompany her back to Liben."

As if to compensate his son, Yusaku continued:

"Don't be angry. I will help you win over Lin Xuan and let him live in our house."

"If that organization comes to you in the future, he won't sit idly by. With his help..."

Yusaku continued to talk about his plan, but Conan couldn't hear anything at this moment.

His eyes were fixed on the end of the aisle, where Lin Xuan and Xiaolan were hugging each other affectionately.

Even Lin Xuan started to take action again!

Xiaolan came to this single-family house naturally because she was invited by Lin Xuan.

Looking at the scene at the end of the aisle, Conan was almost angry to the point of vomiting blood.

[You stole my childhood sweetheart before, and now you want to steal my house? ]

[Lin Xuan, you, what kind of hatred do we have between us? ]

An hour later, Edogawa Conan came to the Beetle with an expressionless face like a puppet. He mechanically opened the car door and lay down on the back seat without saying a word.

Seeing Conan covered in ribbon debris, Dr. Agasa was even more confused about the current situation:

"Shinichi, what happened?"

Conan fell into an autistic state and couldn't hear the doctor's questions at all.

Huiyuan said unhappily:

"You are such an egomaniac. You made the doctor worry about you for nothing for so long."

The team that idol player Higo is on lost the game tonight, and Conan, who returned to the car in a daze, became Ai's punching bag.

"I've already told you that couple has nothing to do with the organization, yet they still put on such an arrogant face in front of me."

Seeing Lin Xuan and the blushing Mao Lilan walking out of a single-family house through the car window, Huiyuan realized that she had discovered the truth:

"So what did you see? Could it be that you saw that girl being intimate with Lin Xuan?"

"Edogawa, it's about time you accept the reality. The person she likes is not Kudo Shinichi."

Under normal circumstances, Conan would definitely find a way to fight back, but tonight his faith was broken and he could only lie down and be ridiculed.

It was also on this night that Huihara developed a strong interest in Lin Xuan.

[You actually made the megalomaniac so embarrassed, well done! 】

At this time, Huihara Ai didn't know that Lin Xuan was about to move next door and become her neighbor.
