People are in Conan, but Ace Attorney

Chapter 347: Out-of-court Matters: Asai Narimi
—————May 23, 10:30 a.m.——————

—————Tokyo area suburbs, observatory rooftop——————

Professor Agasa drove his car and took Nanatsuki Koshimizu and Conan all the way north.

Their destination was clear: the abandoned observatory on the outskirts of the city.

The view from that place was very broad, and they could see where they had deduced the hostages were being held.

"…If it goes as expected, Miyoshi Mazi has an accomplice, and there is at least one of them there."

"But I think, with my strength, one or two will be no problem."

"But you, uncle, is it really okay for you to be with this kid?"

Nanatsuki Koshimizu looked at the things flying by outside.

She asked the owner of the car and the Death God elementary school student next to him with some concern.

In response, Dr. Agasa laughed twice.

"I won't go up. It will only cause more trouble. My car is faster and more convenient."

The expired girl detective raised a brow.

What do you mean? You're not going up? Does that mean this elementary school student is going up?
Really, a primary school student wouldn't be able to help and would only cause trouble, right?

I heard that he was a classmate of the three missing elementary school students, and a member of the Junior Detective League.

In this regard, Conan did not focus on what Nanatsuki Koshimizu said.

I don't have the ability to read minds to know what Nanatsuki Koshimizu is thinking.

Otherwise, he would definitely say in his heart——————

When I hit your face with the football, you will know whether I will cause trouble or not.

(It's strange no matter how you think about it that the signal of the Junior Detective Team suddenly disappeared at that time.)
(It’s even stranger that they’re actually in the forest.)
(It was like following the kidnappers inside…)
Conan held up his little face, not knowing what he was thinking.

(I really don’t understand what those kids are thinking.)
(As expected, I only look like an elementary school student, but I am not actually an elementary school student, so you can't understand, right?)
(Then don’t understand it…)
When he followed Xiang Yuan around everywhere, Xiang Yuan once said this.

[Don't try to reason with a moron. He will try to bring your IQ down to his level, then use his rich experience to defeat you. In the end, he will make you doubt whether you are really worse than a moron].

Although the Junior Detective Team are not mentally retarded, if we replace the word mentally retarded with elementary school students, this sentence can also be applied and make sense.

He can still call himself a famous high school detective who looks like an elementary school student but is actually smarter than ordinary people.

If he really integrates into the elementary school student segment, he will be doomed. It will be useless even if he turns back into Kudo Shinichi.

At that time, he will become a detective who looks like a high school student, but in fact his intelligence is equivalent to that of an elementary school student.

Brush it——-————

Dr. Agasa's car suddenly stopped at this moment.

Looking at the abandoned observatory with its door opened in front of me.

Nanatsuki Koshimizu and Conan came down from the doors on both sides and looked at each other.

I felt inexplicably uneasy, but in the end, I walked inside without saying a word.

Now that we are here, we can’t just leave without going in to take a look, right?
They are here to catch criminals, not to enjoy the scenery!
Walking up the stairs, the two figures gradually disappeared from Dr. Agasa's sight.

He leaned against his car, waiting for Nanatsuki Koshimizu and Conan to come down.

Although he felt that Nanatsuki Koshimizu's fighting ability might not be high, Shinichi's strength was still acceptable.

At least nothing should happen if we go up there.

Beep, beep, beep——————

The phone rang at this moment, and Dr. Agasa answered the call with some confusion.

"Hello? I'm Dr. Agasa...ah? No accomplices? Is that true?" "What? No kidnapping? Are you kidding me, Inspector Megure..."

If there was no kidnapping, then Miyoshi Mako would have no accomplices...

So who are Nanatsuki Koshimizu and Shinichi Kudo looking for so carefully now?
Dr. Agasa raised his head and looked at the tall abandoned observatory, not knowing what to say for a moment.

(Forget it, I'll just use the detective badge to contact him. Luckily Shinichi also has the detective badge.)
Tick, tick, tick.

The abandoned observatory was very quiet, so quiet that the only sounds were the footsteps of Nanatsuki Koshimizu and Conan.

Such a quiet environment always makes people feel a little scary.

But for Yue Shui, who is more like a boy than a girl, and Conan, who is young and ignorant and dares to pursue Gin.

What does this little discomfort matter?
Just be extra careful to see if there are any traps set by criminals nearby, or if there are any ambushes.

But what the two former high school detectives could not have imagined was...

There was nothing in the observatory, no ambushes, no traps, nothing.

They reached the top of the observatory unimpeded, and the first thing they saw was the white food stall chairs.

There is also a folding table with water and bread on it.

(Sure enough, Sanhao Mazi has an accomplice, and he is right here!)
Koshimizu Nanatsuki's heart froze.

However, Conan blinked, feeling that something was not right.

Because the person sitting on the white chair with the telescope in front of him looked a little familiar.

However, he doesn’t seem to know any girls with ponytails…right?

(Wait, a single ponytail, this back view is...)
"Yueshui, that's not——"

However, the expired girl detective had already approached the man's back.

The next moment, that person seemed to notice something and turned around in confusion.

Then... he caught Nanatsuki Koshimizu's leg with astonishing speed.

He sent it back with his backhand, almost causing the expired female detective to fall.

"Long time no see, Miss Koshimizu, and Conan-kun."

"Well...if we talk about time, it's actually been less than two months, right?"

Recognize the distinctive appearance of these two former high school detectives.

Asai Narimi stood up and said apologetically.

"I'm sorry, I didn't notice it was Miss Yueshui just now. Are you hurt?"

(As expected of Dr. Asai who was planning to carry out a serial murder case on Tsukikage Island, this strength and speed...)
(It felt like he threw me ten meters away with one hand... It's no surprise that it was him.)
The little shinigami student in the blue suit turned confused.

(Shouldn't Miyoshi Asako's accomplice be here? Why is Mr. Asai here?)

(What happened behind all this?)

Beep, beep.

The detective badge lights up.

Conan grabbed his detective badge and heard Dr. Agasa's voice from it.

"Wrong, all wrong, this is not kidnapping at all..."

"…It was just an adventurous outing."

Asai Narimi said softly.
