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

Chapter 45: The Frontier of Science (Seeking a monthly ticket!!!)
"what--"

Conan lazily got up from the quilt, stretched, rubbed his eyes, and reached out to turn off the alarm clock that was still ringing beside him.

"So annoying." Conan sighed inwardly.

It has been three days since my body became smaller.

Conan felt very upset about wasting three days in the Maori Affairs Detective Agency.

It's really meaningless to decide to look through those records of finding cats and dogs or catching people in adultery.

But more importantly.

So far, there has been no news about those people, neither the men in black who made themselves smaller nor the men with strange watches.

I even met a confused detective...

Conan felt somewhat powerless, thinking back to Maori Kogoro's completely confusing way of handling the case a few days ago.

Do I really want this kind of person to become a famous detective?

"This is simply an impossible task!" Conan secretly complained in his heart.

It has been three days and there has not been a single case, no, not even a single business.

"No, we can't waste time like this anymore!"

Conan secretly made up his mind, next week I will be taken to school by Xiaolan, thinking that I will have to endure boring school time again...

I must get some news today!
Standing on tiptoe, Conan reached the door handle and gently opened the door. Then, he heard the familiar laughter.

Kogoro Mori's unique, silly but cheerful laughter.

"Oh my! That's Miss Yoko! Oh hoo! She's still as cute as ever!"

Conan felt a chill in his heart. This old pervert! He didn't even think about his own age.

Frowning and suppressing his dissatisfaction, Conan quietly slipped to the door of the office.

"Uh, that, uncle!" He made up an excuse, "I went out to play!"

He had only one goal today - he was going to find Dr. Agasa to ask him about the news he had asked him to find out.

Then he started to complain to the doctor about Kogoro Mouri's unreliability.

"So is Kogoro Mouri really that bad?" Dr. Agasa chatted with Conan while tinkering with something on the experimental table.

"Of course it's true! I never thought there would be such a detective..."

"Don't say that," Dr. Agasa knew something about Kogoro, "He used to be a very capable detective!"

"By the way," the doctor suddenly stopped what he was doing, turned around and told Conan seriously, "Xiaolan came to see me yesterday, it seemed to be in the evening!"

Conan was stunned for a moment, his heart moved slightly, and then he held his breath.

……

A barely perceptible complex expression appeared on Dr. Agasa's face. He recalled the anxious look on Xiaolan's face when she came.

"It looks like Shinichi didn't come to school again today! And it seems like he didn't even go home!"

Xiaolan was so anxious that she was about to cry. She was almost on the verge of collapse.

"That means he's been missing since the day he went out with me!"

"What should I do?!" The more Xiaolan spoke, the more panic she felt inside. She remembered that Shinichi had chased after the man in black for the last time.

At that time, Dr. Agasa could see from her eyes that she was full of panic.

"Could it be..." Xiaolan paused for a moment. When she thought of a possibility, her face turned pale and even her voice trembled.

"No, I'm going to call the police!"

"It's too early to call the police now. Shinichi might just be obsessed with a case and temporarily forget to go home."

Dr. Agasa placed his hands on Conan's shoulders and imitated the tone of the conversation between him and Xiaolan. "I used this excuse to deceive her temporarily."

Dr. Agasa took a deep breath, his eyes suddenly became more serious. He slowly walked in front of Conan and patted Conan's shoulders with both hands.

His eyes were fixed on Conan's, as if he wanted to find something behind those lenses.

"In short, Conan, if you don't work harder and restore 'everything' to its original state as soon as possible, it won't work!"

"That's right!" Dr. Agasa seemed to have suddenly thought of something. He rummaged through a prop box next to the lab table. "This is it!"

The doctor handed Conan a bow-shaped device, "Bow-tie voice changer! I believe it will be very helpful for you to solve the case!"

"Bow tie, voice changer?"

"Don't underestimate this voice changer, Conan. With it, you can imitate anyone's voice! This way you can disguise yourself as someone else's!"

"This is very useful, but Doctor," Conan took the voice changer and touched his head subconsciously, "is there anything more powerful?"

"Doctor, you know that after shrinking, my physical strength has also decreased a lot. Even criminals that I could easily subdue are now beyond my ability..."

Through the newly made special lens, Dr. Agasa could clearly see that the moment Conan took over, the signals of the detection equipment stuck inside disappeared.

Is it really only useful as a detective device?
"That's right, after all, your body has become much smaller. Let me look for it——"

The doctor thought to himself, what about this next one? He pretended to rummage through the box again and handed over the net rope gun that the Alliance had already prepared.
"This thing has a simple structure and is easy to repair. Most importantly, it has a special spider silk sticky web inside. Once you get hit, it's very difficult to break free."

"let me try!"

Conan excitedly snatched the cool gadget from the doctor's hand, and just as he put his finger on the trigger, it exploded.

Just as the doctor had said, a mass of compressed sticky webs wrapped him up perfectly and covered the entire room like a spider's nest.

Even the lab table was pulled over by the spider webs, and the things on it were scattered all over the floor.

"My experiment! My room!"

It took the doctor more than half an hour, with the help of Conan, to free himself from the sticky spider web that wrapped him like a dumpling.

"That doesn't make sense! I even used a mechanical structure for this device!"

In fact, the doctor was not surprised by this result at all.

Looking at the sticky webs everywhere, the doctor suddenly felt a little happy for some reason.

Unlike in the past when I had to clean up the mess after an experiment exploded or failed by myself, hehe, from now on I’ll leave this matter to the young people in the alliance!

Dr. Agasa thought naively, "They tricked me once before! I might as well cause them some trouble!"

But he finally pretended to be sad about cleaning the room later and was puzzled by the explosion of the device. The doctor pretended to get his next experimental subject, "Wait! I have another one..."

Only then did Conan remember the experiences in the past when the doctor showed him his unreliable inventions.

"I really won't need it for now! Wait! That's it!"

Conan's eyes fell to the ground, and he finally saw the thing that fell to the ground after the experimental table was overturned.

Long before the last cycle, the Alliance had deliberately left the operations layer there—

The letter and the half obsidian watch.

Conan's expression became very serious. He really didn't expect to see this here: "Doctor! Where did you get that watch?!"

"After listening to your description, I got some information from my friends," Dr. Agasa's expression turned serious. "This thing should come from a very mysterious scientific research organization."

"Scientific research organization?" Conan didn't understand how this was related to a scientific research organization.

"Yes, from an organization called 'Science Frontiers'," the doctor paused, trying to "persuade" Conan not to step into this muddy water.

"I heard they caused quite a stir in the scientific community, and many theoretical physics scientists committed suicide."
