Ten minutes ago, Conan asked Xingchen to take a shower first. Now, Xingchen stood next to the washing machine and looked at the top of the washing machine. There was only one set of clothes, as if he had forgotten to take something.

He recalled it in his mind and it seemed that he forgot to take the towel.

Conan happened to be outside, so Xingchen decided to go out and ask him.

He opened the door, stuck his head out and was about to shout, "Conan, where is the towel?" but found the living room empty.

He tilted his head with a look of doubt and question marks in his eyes, thinking: "Where is Conan?"

Then he began to look around the house. There was no one in his uncle's room, no one in the kitchen, and no one in Mao Lilan's room either.

"What's going on?" Xingchen stood in the empty living room wearing bear slippers, thinking for a moment.

He decided to go down and ask Mao Lilan, so he decided to go down to the second floor.

Just as he reached the second floor, he heard the phone on Uncle Maori's desk ringing.

Xingchen picked up the phone. After the other party introduced himself, he was stunned for a moment, then said "Wait a moment", and handed the phone to Mao Lilan. While handing the phone, he also asked Mao Lilan where the towel was.

When he was done, he found his towel among the folded towels next to the sink.

After a while~~

There were footsteps coming from the stairwell, getting closer and closer to the door to the third floor.

With a click, the door opened.

The first thing Conan saw was Xingchen, who had just finished taking a shower, sitting in the living room. Xingchen was about to say welcome back, but was stopped by Conan's silent and dark eyes.

Then a deep voice came out of Conan's mouth. "Who are you?"

"Huh?!" Xingchen was a little surprised, as if he hadn't provoked him.

Although I was planning to use this matter to get some benefits from him.

But from the look in the other person's eyes, I could tell that I had revealed something.

Could it be that the method I just thought of was discovered? That shouldn't be possible. Even a famous detective can't read minds.

Conan seemed to notice Xingchen's puzzled look, and he felt a little anxious.

Conan could imagine that if the Xingchen in front of him was from the Black Organization who came to investigate him, then the people he cared about and the people he had contact with would be silenced, which was a fact he could not accept.

Now he will face his fear. Conan raised his head. He could only bet that Xingchen was not a member of the Black Organization. Then he looked into Xingchen's eyes and said, "Why are you here?"

This is what Conan thought. He just took a step and closed the door gently.

Xingchen knew he had left and came out to the living room. It was obvious that he had been paying attention to his movements.

After he left, she probably kept an eye on his movements, and then used an excuse to go to the second floor and wait for me to call, so as to obtain evidence that I was Kudo Shinichi. She even pretended to have amnesia these past few days in order to gain their trust. Today, she sneaked to Dr. Agasa to inquire about me.

This man is dangerous, but he has no evidence.

Conan is now waiting for Xingchen's reply. If Xingchen's answer is consistent with his idea, he will take out the result of this deduction and speak it out, and then use extraordinary means to stop Xingchen (referring to knocking him unconscious with an ashtray).

To prevent him from informing on the Black Organization. Then the whole family moved to the United States, so that they could be safe.

But Xingchen could only blink, as if Conan had misunderstood something.

Xingchen was scratching his head and said in an innocent voice, "I am Xingchen, who else could I be? And why did you come here? Didn't you pick me up?"

Ah, Conan's heart skipped a beat, and looking at Xingchen, he felt a little confused and it didn't seem like he was pretending.

It seems that I have misunderstood. Oh, right, Conan suddenly thought, if it is the Black Organization, why would they become smaller and even pretend to have amnesia before coming to investigate. Or, Xingchen might be a victim.

Damn it, how could he have forgotten it.

Unwilling to give up, Conan stared into Xingchen's eyes and continued to ask, "Then why do you know where Dr. Agasa lives, and why did you say that I introduced you here?"

"Oh, you're asking that." Xingchen explained, "I dreamt of a place last night. It might be a memory from before I lost my memory. But on the way, I found that I had no money."

Then he told her how he got lost and accidentally walked to the vicinity of Dr. Agasa's house, and he was planning to come back, but Dr. Agasa suddenly appeared, and since he had heard Xiaolan mention him, he made up an excuse and went in.

After explaining the whole process, Xingchen scratched his head a little embarrassedly. He did not expect such a mistake to happen.

I guess Conan thought he was a member of the Black Organization at this point in time.

Conan is at a stage where he will become suspicious whenever he sees a suspicious person wearing black clothes or an unknown person, although it seems that he will always be suspicious of the latter.

After listening to this, Conan put his hands on the table and thought to himself, damn, why did things turn out like this.

In his fantasy, he used his unparalleled reasoning to leave Xingchen speechless, and then Xingchen told him the truth. He let bygones be bygones, forgave Xingchen, and turned him into a member of the fight against the dark organization.

But why did things turn out like this?

"By the way, Conan, although I don't know what you want to ask, why did you go out?" Xingchen asked back, thinking in his heart, hey, you never expected it. I know your secret.

"He must have gone out so late to do something to avoid seeing someone. I'm going to tell Sister Xiaolan." Xingchen said proudly with his arms crossed. He was going to burst Conan's gold coins.

"Da-meh!" Conan said in panic. If Xiaolan knew that he was Kudo Shinichi, the consequences would be serious. It would be best not to let others know.

Even knowing that he had taken a shower with Xiaolan in the past few days, he could already imagine that the electric pole that was kicked to pieces was exactly what he would look like after his true identity was revealed.

After thinking about it, Conan's doubts about Xingchen were dispelled a little. This was very much like the unreasonable behavior of a child.

The door opened. Mao Lilan had just finished tidying up the second floor and was helping the drunk Mao Li Kogoro up. She looked at the two men standing face to face and said, "What are you two talking about?"

"Sister Xiaolan, wuwuwu." Xingchen raised his hand and was about to complain, but Conan covered his mouth.

Then Conan spoke up for Xingchen, feeling guilty: "Sister Xiaolan, Chen said he was hungry but was too embarrassed to tell you."

Mao Lilan was a little confused about what the two were doing, but after hearing what Conan said, she suddenly realized and said, "Then Xiaochen, wait a moment."

After all, children who have just arrived in a new environment are still a little shy, and it is normal for them to be embarrassed to speak.

Mao Li Ran didn't doubt anything and helped Mao Li Kogoro back to the room.

"Wow~" Conan breathed a sigh of relief after seeing Mouri Ran return to the room.

Seeing that Xingchen seemed to be a little pale, he quickly let go of his hand and apologized: "Sorry, sorry."

Xingchen finally got a chance to survive, and he breathed in big gulps of fresh air.

He thought Conan was going to kill someone to silence him, and he almost traveled through time again.

Ten minutes later, Xingchen reached a series of agreements with Conan. He traded 10,000 yen for Conan's request not to tell Mao Lilan about this.

That's right, it's 10,000 yen. I heard from this guy that it's his monthly pocket money, month after month. If converted to RMB in this era, it's more than 1,000 yuan.

Xingchen thought to himself, the rich people in this evil place.

This time, I managed to get some money from Conan by accident. It seems that I will have the funds to go to Takata Street.

At this time, Mao Lilan walked out of the room, looked for the refrigerator at home and said, "There are only dumplings at home, Xiaochen, do you want some?" "Yeah." Xingchen pretended to nod in response, he was not actually hungry.

He could only find someone to take on the role later. Then Xingchen looked at Conan and he already had a candidate.

Then when the dumplings were served, half of the dumplings were given to Conan with a suitable reason.

Conan was not hungry either, and then he was stared at by Xingchen with a vicious look.

He swallowed back the words of rejection in his throat and could only fill the hole he had dug himself with tears.

That night, the two of them looked at the sky, listened to Uncle Maori's snoring, and Xingchen touched his bloated belly.

I thought to myself, what kind of excuse is Conan making?

Conan was also thinking, he didn't expect this kid to be so cunning, it was a pity that he didn't get anything out of him.

Neither of them slept tonight.

A few days later, inside Teitan Elementary School, after entering the door and walking through the entire corridor, the first thing at the corner is the first grade class B, where Conan is.

It was just the end of the get out of class time for the students, and everyone was discussing something in a lively manner.

"Hey, Jiang Mei, have you heard that there's another transfer student to our school?" A boy said to the girl he was getting along well with.

"Are there so many transfer students coming recently? The latest one seems to be Edogawa Conan." responded.

"Do you think the new transfer student is a boy or a girl?" the girl touched the boy's arm and continued.

"I think it's a boy." The boy said after thinking carefully for a while.

"Why?" the girl asked back.

"Because there are not many boys better than me, I urgently need a competitor." The boy said excitedly with his fist clenched.

"What about Edogawa Conan?"

"He, judging by his lazy appearance, must not be very powerful." The boy has been observing Conan for a long time.

He found that Conan had never listened to the lectures seriously since he came here, and did not show any talent, so he subconsciously classified him as a mediocre person.

"Idiot." The girl complained softly.

Little did he know that Conan was sitting not far away, and the boy's voice could be heard by him.

Conan thought with dead eyes, I'm sorry to disappoint you.

For him, it makes no difference whether he goes to school or not.

Come to think of it, ever since Chen blackmailed him last time, oh no, it was him who paid Xingchen hush money.

After investigating again, he found out that it was a misunderstanding. It was Xingchen who discovered that he didn't take out the towel and asked, which led to him going out and being discovered.

Damn it, I have to be more careful next time and not reveal any flaws, Conan thought.

Genta, Ayumi, and Mitsuhiko next to them were also whispering, discussing who the new transfer student was.

Only Conan was standing beside them, happily listening to their discussion silently.

He said nothing, because he already knew who it was.

......

Tap~ Tap~, two different footsteps came from outside the classroom door into the classroom, and everyone turned their heads to look outside the door.

"Okay, okay, be quiet and sit back in your seats." The head teacher knocked on the door and said. By the way, the head teacher at this time had not yet been replaced by Teacher Kobayashi.

Xingchen, who was following behind the class teacher, stuck his head out and took a look inside, and saw Conan sitting in the third row.

It seemed that there was an empty seat behind Conan, and at this moment Xingchen decided to choose the seat behind Conan.

The head teacher walked up to the podium, and Xingchen followed him up.

The head teacher wrote a string of katakana on the blackboard, and below the katakana he wrote the Chinese characters for "Starry Night". He then clapped his hands and said, "Welcome new students."

"Wow, it's so pretty."

"What a cute boy."

"Hey, isn't this Conan's friend? He actually transferred here." Ayumi said with some surprise.

Everyone below was discussing in a low voice, and one boy even looked at Xingchen with a hint of jealousy but didn't show it, wondering why there was such a good-looking boy.

Damn it, I want to be popular with girls based on my ability, not my appearance, he made up his mind secretly.

"My name is Xingchen, Xing for star and Chen for morning. I hope you can give me guidance in the future." Xingchen finished the introduction quickly.

After listening to Xingchen's self-introduction, the head teacher said, "Come on, Xingchen, pick an empty seat and sit down."

"Okay." Xingchen replied.

Then he walked straight to the empty seat behind Conan and sat down, put his schoolbag on the table and took out his stationery.

Conan turned his head and quietly approached Xingchen and whispered, "Chen, did you have any dreams last night?"
