Conan: Begins to collaborate with Miss Bayonetta and become famous

"I know, I was just checking my phone."

"I'm really happy to see your message, so we are officially dating now, right?————Xiaolan"

"Oh no!" Conan's heart was pounding. "I really want to reply to her right now!"

"Kudo, you know what? I was so anxious at that time. You became so small in front of me, and I had to block you."

"I was trying to stuff you into my backpack at the same time. Fortunately, Teacher Yi Yu arrived in time, otherwise I really don't know what to do."

"By the way, how did Mr. Yi Yu know about your shrinking? He's not a member of the so-called Black Organization, is he?"

Conan simply answered, "That's a long story. I was distracted at the time and didn't pay attention."

"But he is a trustworthy partner just like you."

"Is that so." Hattori pursed his lips and said, "One more thing, can you tell me in advance when you become smaller in the future and let me know."

"You make it sound so easy, but I don't have the time. I have a lot of things to deal with."

"Huh?" Hattori was confused: "What happened?"

"You didn't see it." Conan smiled again: "You... you didn't see it, so forget it."

"Yeah." Hattori stared with dead fish eyes: "I didn't see anything, you and Xiaolan kissing on the Qingshui stage or anything like that."

"I really didn't see anything at all."

Conan's face flushed: "You...you saw it, didn't you? At that time I...was just subconscious."

Hattori didn't listen to Conan's words: "Kudo you are so abominable! I have chosen several perfect places to confess."

"The first one on the list is the Shimizu stage! And they even kissed it."

"Damn it, they're making it more difficult for me!"

Inside the Mori Detective Agency.

"I'm back! Dad!" Xiaolan pushed open the door happily, but when she saw the sleepy Maori, her face drooped again in an instant.

Xiaolan pouted and said, "Your daughter is back from her school trip. As a father, you should at least come out to greet her."

Xiaolan took out her cell phone with a somewhat frustrated look on her face. Why hasn't Shinichi replied to me yet? Has he seen the message I sent?

"Hey, Kudo, did you hear that?" Hattori ate rice in big mouthfuls.

"When you get to Tokyo, you have to treat me to a nice meal! I want steak! Steak!"

"Okay, okay, of course." Conan smiled and typed on the keyboard, replying to Xiaolan.

"Dingle bell! Dingle bell!"

"Eh?" Xiaolan blushed and her heart began to pound: "A message from Shinichi."

She returned to the room nervously, leaned against the door, took a deep breath, closed her eyes, and turned on her cell phone.

I slowly opened my eyes and checked the message: "Please! You must accept it!"

"Need I say more? Of course I am. ———Shinichi"

The corners of Xiaolan's mouth rose uncontrollably. She lay flat on the soft bed, holding her cell phone tightly against her chest.

She smiled happily, rolled from side to side on the bed, unable to calm down due to excitement, like a little girl who had received a reward.

I think back to the content of the text message again and again.

In Los Angeles, in a hotel, Yukiko and Kudo were sitting on the sofa, watching the news on TV.

“I didn’t expect this news to reach the United States.”

"This is normal, right? After all, the deceased and the murderer are both celebrities. They both worked in Hollywood for a while."

"But I was really surprised that the murderer's motive for murder was because the person Kyoko liked committed suicide."

"Yeah, sometimes people are just so weird." Yusaku blew air and sipped the black tea in the cup.

"By the way, how do you know Deguri Michio's name?"

"Because of the movie poster." Yusaku raised his glasses casually: "Your actor friend deliberately changed his name. There must be a reason."

Yusaku turned on his computer and went to the movie poster page: "After he laid out the list like this, the spacing between the words changed."

"Close your eyes halfway and look at the gap in the middle."

"Wow! Really?"

"This poster was made after the preview ended. I think if Chu Li saw this poster, he would not commit suicide."

"But none of this matters. What worries me most is that this case has caused a sensation all over the world."

Yusaku showed a worried expression: "And the one who solved the case was Shinichi, who shouldn't have been there. I hope he won't be targeted by the Black Organization."

Yukiko interrupted the topic and crossed her arms over Yusaku's chest: "No, Shinichi will definitely not miss anything."

"At least it hasn't been reported in the news yet that the case was solved by high school detectives."

"I hope so." Yusaku looked ahead meaningfully.

"Yukiko, come back to Tokyo with me tomorrow. I'm still worried about Shinichi. I think we need to turn back."

"It's definitely not going to be that simple."

After a while, Xiaolan woke up Maori: "Dad! Why is Conan not at home? Why hasn't he come back yet?"

"Stop smoking! I don't want to breathe secondhand smoke!"

Xiaolan snatched back his cigarette and asked Mao Li anxiously: "Hurry up and tell me, what's going on, Dad?"

Maori drank his beer comfortably, his legs resting on the table: "Oh, you know, the night before you left for the school trip."

"That brat went to live at Dr. Agasa's house."

"Yeah, I know that." Xiaolan listened silently.

"So that kid, that's when he caught a cold and was bedridden."

"But Dad!" Xiaolan asked, "Why didn't you contact me immediately?"

"I wanted to tell you, too." Maori spread his hands helplessly, "The doctor said he was afraid you would be too worried and would come back."

"So you begged me again and again not to tell you. But it's good this way. I don't have to take care of that sick kid."

“Really…”

The next day, early in the morning.

On the street, everyone was looking down at their phones, checking today’s neon Twitter trending number one, and the street was buzzing with people.

Television, radio stations, street vendors, TikTok, neon YouTube videos, newspapers.

Everyone is hyping up this case, and it becomes a topic of conversation almost every time they meet.

The discussion on the Red Shura Tengu murder case has reached an explosive level on social media, with netizens expressing their opinions.

"Hey, did you guys see that news about Kiyomizu Temple?"

"Look! It seems that the person who solved that murder case was a high school student."

"Is this true? Could it be Yusaku's son, Kudo Shinichi?"

“It seems like he is there!”

"Hattori Heiji! He's so handsome! This high school detective is exactly my ideal type."

"Yeah, yeah! It seems like there are two more people. I heard they're a man and a woman."

"Who is it? I'm really looking forward to it."

“Yiyu.” Vermouth patted his shoulder: “It seems that this school trip may become a fuse.”

"I have a feeling that a great war is about to come."
