The establishment of the Time Travelers Alliance began in the first year of Conan

Chapter 172 A Little Warm Moment

Different from the dejected non-commissioned officers or commanders who were taken to military vehicles, or even different from the soldiers who were ordered to disarm.

The team that had been covering the evacuation of all civilians in the bank and escorting them to the blockade cordon was undoubtedly filled with excitement and excitement at this moment.

"Captain Kawano! I knew what we did was right!"

The soldiers in the team that followed Chuan Cheng and had just clashed with the soldiers who blocked the streets were all excited and proud.

"Hmph! Let's see who's right now? Huh?!"

The smile on Ishiharakawa Makoto's face suddenly disappeared.

Seeing Yamada and the guys in his team cheering for victory, the veins on Ishiharakawa Makoto's forehead jumped.

These idiots didn't even realize I was replaced! And they think they're right. Bullshit!
However, whether it is for the purpose of reversing public opinion or proving to Kudo Yusaku that there is still a force of justice in GSSRA.

Or even simply for their bravery.

These heroes received unanimous thanks and cheers from reporters and the rescued people.

While the team members were looking at them with puzzled eyes, their captain suddenly stood at attention and saluted in one direction towards the sky.

"Stand at attention and salute!"

The team members behind him reacted immediately. They were full of enthusiasm and, with admiration for their captain, followed their captain's example and saluted the doctors and nurses who were busy running behind them.

This bunch of hot stuff!

Looking up at the night sky, Ishiharakawa Makoto gave a sincere and grateful smile.

Although he was a little confused when he woke up and faced the expectant looks of his teammates, this man was deeply grateful to someone in his heart, grateful to the person who helped him make up his mind and gave "him" the courage to make such a decision to fight.

The last bit of hesitation on his face turned into a relieved smile surrounded by his teammates, and he quietly put the card with Kidd's fingerprint and the cartoon smiling face into his pocket.

——I’d better find a place to burn it when the time comes.

……

"Tonight, it can be called a meteor shower miracle. After such a violent explosion at the Beihua branch, thanks to the efforts of Captain Ishihara, all 33 civilians were rescued!"

"No one died, and according to the news we just received, the last injured person who was in danger is out of danger!"

On the TV tower, Hongzi and Kid stood quietly on the platform, and the small screen beside them showed the results of their efforts.

Especially when he saw Ishihara Kawamaro's actions displayed on the screen, Kuroba Kaito laughed. He turned his head to look at Koizumi Akako beside him.

"Looks like I was right, Hongzi?"

"Yeah, yeah, just like that kid Conan you forgot to give something to."

Hongzi pouted. She thought Kaito would have to steal the lost notice letter again because of his rare mistake this time!

Kaito smiled sheepishly, and his tone became awkward.

"The situation was so urgent, you must have been the one shouting in my ear, 'It's going to collapse, it's going to collapse—"

Flames were already appearing in Hongzi's hands, "Kuroba Kaito!"

Only at this moment do the two high school students finally reveal their true nature as children because of this happy ending.

A small fight broke out on the platform, accompanied by a burst of light laughter.

As the [cycle] ended, Dr. Agasa, who was assembling something in front of the experimental table, quickly grabbed the mask that fell off his face.

The mask in his hand and his memories that had not yet been reset had already explained the outcome of the second case. Dr. Agasa's beard even trembled slightly with joy.

I knew it! That kid Conan will definitely succeed!
but--

Looking at the half-assembled skateboard in front of him, Dr. Agasa scratched his head. He was planning to let his other self help him to complete this invention!

Unlike the original skateboard which only has an acceleration function, considering the dangers Conan will face in the future, Dr. Agasa actually plans to transform it into a "vehicle".

For example, it should be foldable and lightweight to make it convenient for Conan to carry it with him, and it would be best if it is bulletproof. In addition to the acceleration function, it should also have acceleration or tracking functions.

——This is the fundamental reason why Conan did not bring the skateboard this time, and Dr. Agasa originally planned to use the complete character setting of the "disguise timeline" to accomplish this.

It took him a long time to edit his memories and cues!

Now it seems that the only thing we can do is try to contact the alliance to see if there is any better solution.

Wait, Dr. Agasa has another idea.

Maybe we can also see if we can find a few more transformation modes, such as temporarily turning into a drone or a hang glider. Well, it would be best if it could also add some non-lethal weapons...

"Jingle Bell--"

The phone rang again. Dr. Agasa could guess that it was Yusaku calling without even looking. He smiled, shook his head, and stopped what he was doing.

Okay, Yusaku is more important than transportation. Let’s see what message I can hint at this time.

……

After emergency rescue, almost all the patients were immediately transferred to nearby hospitals.

Xiaolan has woken up and is lying quietly on the hospital bed.

Kogoro, who was standing next to him, was no longer drunk. He looked serious and listened attentively to the doctor telling him what he should ask Xiaolan to pay attention to in the future.

"It's not a big deal, actually. She's very lucky."

The doctor examined the film and now considered it a miracle. "We originally thought she had sustained internal injuries from the explosion, given her condition just now. But now it appears she only has a few broken ribs and some lung damage. She needs to rest and avoid strenuous exercise in the future."

For Kogoro Mouri, this confused detective who sits in front of the TV all day long just sits in front of the TV, drinking while waiting for Miss Yoko's new show.

"Oh! Miss Yoko!"

At that time, the bottle in Mouri Kogoro's hand hit the remote control in a drunken state.

Then, the program on the TV jumped between several channels because of the broken remote control.

"Damn it!"

Just as Kogoro Mouri stood up to see if he could repair the remote control, the familiar report voice of Rena Mizunashi came from the TV behind him.

"...the miracle of the meteor shower...the Mika branch...explosion..."

I don't know if he suddenly remembered that Xiaolan was going to the Mihua branch today to renew her passbook and was sobered up by the shock, or if he was not drunk at all.

The confused detective immediately ran down the stairs of the office and hailed a taxi that happened to be passing by on this deserted street.

"Rice Flower Hospital! Hurry!"

……

In the ward, the report about Rena Mizunashi not long ago was being broadcast repeatedly on the Nichimi TV channel.

Listening absentmindedly to the TV broadcast in the room, Xiaolan's hand unconsciously grabbed the sheets on the hospital bed, and Rena Mizunashi's words echoed in her mind.

"A meteor shower—a miracle?"

She silently prayed for Shinichi's safety in her heart.

Soon, Kogoro Mouri received a call from Inspector Megure.

And almost at the moment when Kogoro put down his phone——

"Dad! How's Shin...Conan?"

"That kid is fine. Officer Megure said he's sent someone to bring him over. He should be here soon!"

After getting the news she wanted to know, Ran Mouri felt a little relieved. Her eyes looked out the window because of the news that Conan would arrive at the hospital soon.

Today's moon phase is not a full moon but a half moon. At this moment, Mao Lilan's heart is like that half-dark and half-bright moon.

Although I received the news that Shinichi is safe.

But for some reason, the premonition in Mao Lilan's heart was telling her how Shinichi felt, and Xiaolan could clearly feel Shinichi's mood at the moment -

Shinichi is feeling pain, anger, and sadness right now...

Looking at Ran Mouri's expression, Kogoro Mouri was silent for a moment. He did not blurt out the words "annoying little detective" as usual.

The middle-aged man hesitated.

"Xiaolan, you know what? In fact, I have sometimes thought about confiding in your mother before..."

"Sister Xiaolan!"

Following a familiar and urgent child's voice, the door of the ward was suddenly pushed open.

"Conan!"

Xiaolan's gaze immediately turned back to the door of the ward, and then she was stunned by Conan's appearance.

Conan's eyes were slightly red, his arms and knees were covered with scratches, and his eyes...

That somewhat embarrassed look made her heart tighten, so Xiaolan endured the pain and sat up on the edge of the bed, then stretched out her hand towards Conan.

The next second, with an expression that looked like he was about to cry, the little figure threw himself into her arms.

Mao Lilan's expression softened.

If it was that guy Kudo, he would definitely stubbornly claim that nothing happened...

Even if it were my past self, I would definitely push him away out of anger because he put me in danger...

But this time, she didn't say anything, but just hugged Shinichi tighter in her arms.

The premonition that kept ringing in her mind seemed to have died down at this moment. Those speculations about the truth, those vague feelings that made her uneasy, what had just happened...

Now, Mao Lilan doesn't want to go into it any further.

At least now if I want to hug Shinichi, I can do so boldly.

Xiaolan lowered her head slightly and gently leaned her head against Conan in her arms, and her soft hair gently brushed against Conan's forehead.

Her voice of comfort was so soft and warm, like she was coaxing a child having a nightmare.

"Conan, I heard what Inspector Megure said... You've done very well."

The small figure in his arms trembled slightly.

Xiaolan could feel Conan's hand subconsciously clutching her sleeve, felt him trembling slightly in her arms, and could even hear the low, somewhat suppressed cry.

Her eyes softened a little.

Maybe this is good enough, good enough.
