Stay away from Conan.

The "time limit" that Hattori Heiji asked about was obviously referring to the effectiveness of the antidote that Kudo Shinichi took.

Faced with this question, Kudo Shinichi was actually a little embarrassed and looked at Xiao Ai and the others beside him -

After all, the source of the antidote, even though it seems now that Haibara and the others were intentional in picking up the medicine box, it is also a fact that I secretly picked it up without telling them.

In this case, asking the person involved for details on the premise that he had done something wrong, Kudo Shinichi couldn't help but feel a little weird, and the look that Ai gave him at this moment was clearly sneering.

However, now that things have come to this, I really can't avoid this question, so I can only be thick-skinned and look at Xiao Ai with a somewhat naive smile like when I was Conan, and ask:

"Haiyuan..."

Kudo Shinichi just said a title, and it was difficult for him to ask any additional specific questions. However, what he wanted to express became very clear because of the topic started by Hattori Heiji just now.

So, in response to Kudo Shinichi's question, Xiao Ai just smiled faintly, folded her hands in front of her, and said:

"Why...did you forget? The agreement we made before. If you need me to help you research the antidote, you have to help me do the experiment.

"Now, hasn't the experiment just begun? I'm not sure how long you can maintain the effects of this drug."

Without directly answering Kudo Shinichi's question, Ai just said:

"Anyway, tell us when you feel like changing back."

Having said that, Xiao Ai signaled Gao Yuan with her eyes, and then Gao Yuan and Xiao Ai also wanted to leave here together -

"I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."

In response to this, Gao Yuan simply said something and then walked out of the ward with Xiao Ai.

So, watching Gao Yuan and Xiao Ai just leave like that, without pursuing the matter of Kudo Shinichi stealing the antidote, and at the same time, when explaining the efficacy of the medicine, they even emphasized the matter of assisting in the experiment, which made Kudo Shinichi unable to say anything.

Hattori Heiji, who was standing by, also noticed it, and took advantage of the opportunity when he was alone with Kudo Shinichi to smile at him with a hint of watching the show:

"Haha... Kudo, if I understand correctly, you were... tricked this time?"

Upon hearing this, Kudo Shinichi was unable to refute this claim of "being plotted against". After all, as he said, if you think about it carefully, if there was no special reason, why did Haibara deliberately carry the antidote with her when she was in the castle in Yokosuka?

It is very likely that from the very beginning, Huiyuan was planning to find a chance to give herself the antidote, but she took the opportunity when Ai just happened to get rid of the antidote, thinking that this might be her only chance, so she kept the antidote in her hands for a while, and until this time, when things reached an extremely critical moment, she chose to take the antidote...

In this way, after reviewing what happened, Kudo Shinichi looked at Hattori Heiji with a little helplessness, and could only wave his hands helplessly and said nothing.

However, this topic was soon revealed. Seeing that Kudo Shinichi was now in Kyoto, Hattori Heiji couldn't help but suggest:
"Forget it, let's not talk about this for now. Now that the case is over and I finally met that person, there's nothing else to do here. Let's just go around Kyoto!"

"Huh? But, won't you stay in the hospital for observation?"

Kudo Shinichi kindly reminded him. But Hattori Heiji had obviously made up his mind not to stay in the hospital, so he prepared to leave after completing the discharge procedures.

"It's okay, it's just a minor skin injury, nothing serious."

Hattori Heiji said as he tidied things up.

Kudo Shinichi was a little helpless about this, and muttered to himself:

"You've been in a coma for so long due to skin injuries?"

——"By the way, it seems the perpetrator hasn't been found yet..."

Suddenly, Kudo Shinichi brought up this matter. Since Nishijo Taiga was not the culprit of Hattori Heiji's car accident, then did the guy who hit Hattori Heiji at that time just get away with it?

So, regarding this question, Hattori Heiji couldn't help but say:

"Let's leave this matter to the police first..."

So, Hattori Heiji, who said this, did not intend to take the initiative to pursue the perpetrator, and prepared to leave the hospital to have a good chat and walk around with Kudo Shinichi...

……

On the other side, after Gao Yuan and Xiao Ai left the hospital, they brought the recovered Buddha statue and the white hair in Hattori Heiji's hand, and combined them together to form a complete Medicine Buddha statue, and came to the Sannoji Temple where the Buddha statue was lost.

As the owner of the lost Buddha statue, it is my duty to return the property to its original owner. Originally, since the police also knew about the theft of the Buddha statue, the matter should have been handled by the police. After taking back the Buddha statue and going through the necessary procedures, I should have notified the temple to retrieve the statue.

However, considering that the loss of the Buddha statue had actually never been known to outsiders, and that Shanneng Temple had no intention of notifying the police, and that the statue would be consecrated at Shanneng Temple after twelve years, there was no time to go through the police process, so for various reasons, it would be a bit cumbersome for the police to handle the return of the Buddha statue.

Therefore, after Gao Yuan, Kudo Shinichi and others talked with Inukai Genichi, Inukai Genichi turned a blind eye and left the matter to Gao Yuan and others to handle, and did not include the information of the Buddha statue in the relevant report of the case.

After all, although the murderer Nishijo Taiga's goal from beginning to end was to find the Buddha statue, he never found it.

If Gao Yuan and others had not found the Buddha statue, it might have been lost in various accidents as the Yulong Temple was completely abandoned and demolished.

Therefore, with the police's tacit approval, Gao Yuan and Xiao Ai came here today to return the Buddha statue.

In this way, the two men parked the car on the side of the road outside Shanneng Temple, got out of the car, and Gao Yuan entered Shanneng Temple with a wooden box.

So, after entering Sannoji Temple, Xiao Ai looked at the scenery here and it was no different from when she came here yesterday. She couldn't help but recall some of the experiences yesterday. Who would have thought that she and others would happen to encounter these things later. If it wasn't for helping Toyama Kazuha find the so-called first love of Hattori Heiji, they wouldn't have come here on purpose yesterday, right?

Also, speaking of which, what about that Miss Chiga Ling I met yesterday?
So, just as Xiao Ai was thinking about this, Ryuen in the temple saw Xiao Ai's figure, so he couldn't help but run over and asked -

"Hey? You are... Yesterday... I heard that..." (End of this chapter)
