Refuse to allow Conan to join the main storyline

Two hours later, the three ladies came out of the beauty room after finishing their treatment.

The two men who came with them were still waiting in the lounge, but...

Shuichi Akai was sitting on the sofa, leisurely reading a newspaper while holding a can of beer.

And Kudo Shinichi...

He was actually curled up on the sofa and fell asleep with a blanket covering him?

How could Kudo Shinichi, the man with such energy that it was a headache and who would never give up until he achieved his goal, actually fall asleep? Sleeping outside? Under the nose of Akai Shuichi?

Koizumi's eyes immediately swept over the drink on the table, and then glanced at Akai Shuichi's expression.

The experience of being drugged by Miyano Akemi made her particularly sensitive to such things.

Yukiko Kudo pushed little Kudo twice and shouted, "Shinichi, get up. We should go back to the hotel. Shinichi?"

Kudo Shinichi forced his eyes open a little, his gaze was a little dull, and he looked at Kudo Yukiko in an unclear manner, then groaned and closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep.

"What's going on? Shin-chan is sleeping so soundly."

Yukiko Kudo looked at the calm man next to her in surprise.

Akai Shuichi put down the newspaper in his hand and replied, "Maybe he is really tired? Kudo started yawning after chatting with me for a while. I asked the waiter to bring a blanket to cover him, and then he fell asleep quickly."

He glanced at his watch: "I've probably slept for more than forty minutes."

Oh, it’s really watertight.

He even pulled a witness for himself.

This explanation by Shuichi Akai seems reasonable to those who don't know Shinichi Kudo.

But for those who are familiar with his temper and personality, it is simply nonsense!

With a huge riddle man like Akai Shuichi around, and with what he just learned about the movie theater, would Kudo Shinichi be bored enough to fall asleep?

Even if he suffers a loss at your hands and chooses to give up, he will most likely continue to try to search for relevant reports about the case in the newspaper.

If he was really bored and had nothing to do, he would wander around the beauty salon to have fun, and might even sneak into the beauty room to peek and eavesdrop.

The only thing he won’t do is lie down and sleep!

If he is sleeping unconscious like he is now, it goes without saying that he has been drugged.

While she swore to Kudo Yusaku that she would help him look after the child, she attacked him without hesitation.

Hey, Shuichi Akai, you are really something.

Koizumi took a quick glance and noticed that Vermouth's eyes were dull when she looked at Akai Shuichi, with a sneer on the corner of her mouth.

Sister Bei has obviously noticed something unusual.

As for Kudo Yukiko, she was obviously a little confused. She reached out and touched Kudo Shinichi's forehead and neck, and only breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that there was really no problem.

Facing the suspicious looks from the three people, Akai Shuichi remained calm as usual: "After the child fell asleep, I called Mr. Kudo and told him about the situation here. He said he would come to pick up the child. He should be here soon."

As soon as Shuichi Akai finished speaking, the door of the beauty salon opened and Kudo Yusaku arrived.

He immediately spotted five people gathered in the rest area and strode over.

Kudo Yusaku first observed his wife and children.

My wife is fine, and my son looks normal and breathing is steady. He just looks like he fell asleep. There's nothing wrong with him.

Then he greeted everyone: "It seems that I came at the right time. Have the three ladies just finished their treatment?"

"Yes."

Kudo Yukiko sighed and said, "I just found out that Shin-chan was sleeping so soundly. Oh, if I had known he was so tired, I should have let him go back to the hotel with you just now."

Kudo Yusaku smiled helplessly and said, "It's very likely that he won't listen to you. I shouldn't have been lazy. I should have just come with you guys."

After saying that, he nodded to Akai Hide and said, "Thank you for your help, Akai-kun. This kid is too energetic. He must have caused you a lot of trouble, right?"

(Although my son is a troublemaker, he is full of energy and it is impossible for him to be so tired that he would sleep outside and sleep so deeply. So why did he become like this? Did he get into trouble?)

Akai Shuichi shook his head: "No, it's okay. We just talked for a while, and he probably felt tired, so he lay down and fell asleep."

(No trouble, just too much talk.)

Kudo Yusaku frowned: "We just chatted for a while? Weird, we didn't walk much today, so we shouldn't be so tired, right?"

(So ​​what happened to my son? Is he in danger?)

Koizumi picked up the drink on the coffee table and pretended to put it to his mouth.

Kudo Yukiko hurriedly stopped him and said, "Ah, Sakurai, don't take the wrong one, that's Shinichi's cup."

"Oh, sorry."

Koizumi stopped, put the cup back on the coffee table, looked at Kudo Yusaku, and smiled with the corners of his mouth curled up.

Do you understand everything you should understand?

Kudo Yusaku's pupils shrank slightly, and the smile on his face was almost unable to be maintained.

It was really Shuichi Akai's problem? He actually gave Shinichi some medicine!

why?

Is it just because you don't want to answer Shinichi's question?

If you don't want to help from the beginning, then don't say you will help take care of him. Don't bring him to the beauty salon. Just let me take him back to the hotel!

What is the purpose of bringing people here and then putting them down?

Damn it, I gave the child to you because I trusted you and the FBI!

Kudo Yusaku's expression turned a little ugly.

At this time, Koizumi suddenly asked, "Mr. Kudo, have you booked your return flight?"

Kudo Yusaku nodded: "Yes, the flight is tomorrow morning."

Koizumi nodded: "Oh, it's better to go back early. You have to get up early tomorrow, right? It's getting late, so go back quickly."

Kudo Yusaku: "...I'm a little worried about this child."

Koizumi laughed and said, "Haha, if he really waited until the plane took off before waking up, wouldn't that be just right? There would be no point in him making a fuss."

Kudo Yusaku felt slightly relieved when he saw that Koizumi did not give any danger warning.

London is a troubled place, so I'd better leave as soon as possible.

It seems that he still needs to communicate with Yukiko about the organization, Sakurai and her old friend Sharon Wynyard.

Ask her to help him control Shinichi and not leave any chance for the organization... and the FBI!

When he returned to Tokyo, he had a good talk with the Mori family and resolved the issue of the two children.

If the Maori family really doesn't want to, then we can only...

Move to the United States with Shinichi and the whole family as soon as possible.

Get as far away from Tokyo as possible!

Kudo Yusaku said no more, but made up his mind secretly.

He walked forward and picked up Kudo Shinichi, who was still unconscious, and nodded to the people present: "Then we will go ahead."

After watching the two adults and one child leave, Koizumi turned to Akai Shuichi and asked directly, "Is your medicine not dangerous?"

Akai Hide nodded: "No. As you said, if their flight tomorrow is early, the child should wake up almost after the plane takes off."

"He's just a child, is it necessary to use such a cruel method as drugging him?"

Akai Hide looked at Koizumi expressionlessly for a long while before saying faintly, "Don't play dumb. Don't you understand? This is my token of loyalty."

Koizumi smiled.
