Daily Spy Life in the Detective Conan World

Chapter 437 Oh no, Conan has been discovered!
As the zoo's truck left, Miwako Sato did not choose to go down to check on the air-raid shelter.

After all, nobody knows what's inside. What if the other party left behind some arrangements when they left? We'll have to wait for other support from the Metropolitan Police Department to arrive before we can make any decisions.

Has Conan disappeared again?

Since he couldn't get involved here, Joel decided to take Conan back to the guesthouse.

As a result, when they turned around, they didn't see a single person, not even a ghost.

"He seemed to have gone to the right just now," an officer suddenly remembered and said. "He probably hid because he was scared, right?"

During the chase, Conan, unusually, didn't stay at the forefront and suddenly ran to the right at a certain point.

The police officers were deeply impressed, after all, Conan was still a child, yet he dared to chase the suspect with the police.

"Is it on the right? I'll go check it out. It's too unsafe for a small child to be in this dense forest. We don't even know if there are any other bad guys inside."

Joel greeted Miwako Sato and ran toward the location indicated by the police officer.

“Really”

Miwako Sato sighed, rubbing her forehead. Conan, that kid, is really too much of a worry.

Although he often helps the Metropolitan Police Department in solving cases, he is Kogoro Mouri's special Watson.

But the situation is different, and running around like that could easily cause problems.

I must talk to Mr. Mori later.

While Sato Miwako was thinking about these things, Joel had already chased after them for some distance.

Once out of his colleagues' sight, Joel's speed increased, changing from running to leaping from treetop to treetop, like a ninja constantly traversing the tranquil forest.

"Conan must have spotted Gin and the others, right?"

She had just seen Gin and the others leave in this direction. As for why she didn't chase after Gin but instead focused on the zoo?

She was angered by the zoo's actions.

"Indeed, just like Ai said, Conan is too impulsive. We absolutely cannot tell him my identity, otherwise he will only become more and more outrageous."

Joel shook his head as he searched.

Conan really disappointed her.

I used to think that Ai Haibara's statement was too extreme, and that Shinichi Kudo couldn't possibly be that kind of irrational person.

Okay, that's just the kind of person he is.
"This should be the right direction!"

Conan looked away. The trampled marks on the flowers and plants on the ground were very obvious, indicating that the Black Organization must have left from this direction.

While Miwako Sato focused all her attention on Snake and the others, Conan accurately spotted Gin and his two companions.

To be precise, they tracked down vodka.

After all, running with his head tilted greatly affected his speed, and he even crashed into a tree once, which was spotted by the sharp-eyed Conan.

It must be because of its large size that its head was tilted to one side from exhaustion.

After searching all the way, crossing half a mountain, Conan finally found the trail of Gin, Vodka, and Tequila.

He looked down and adjusted his watch.

Because they were too heavy, he threw some away and emptied his pockets. Now he has two hanging on each of his left and right hands.

Three people and four wristwatch-type tranquilizer guns should be enough.

Following the tracks on the ground, Conan suddenly realized something was wrong about five minutes later!
The traces have disappeared!
Just like that, he vanished from the ground!

"This is impossible!"

Conan looked grim, glancing around in confusion before finally fixing his gaze on the large tree beside him.

There was nothing on the ground, so Gin and the other two left by jumping from tree to tree?
It seems absurd, but fishing lines can weigh hundreds of kilograms, Joel can jump from tens of meters high and be unharmed, Ran can crack a telephone pole with one punch, and he and Ai Haibara can shrink.

These even more incredible things have happened, and jumping from treetop to treetop doesn't seem so impossible anymore.

They are all at least much better than APTX4869 Ke Xue.

Suddenly, a cool breeze swept in from behind, and the sound of a branch snapping was very abrupt.

The sound came from behind him, almost right next to his back.

Although Conan always believed that this was a scientific world and that there could be no demons or monsters, this sudden turn of events left him feeling quite disheartened.

Especially in the current situation, the traces of their journey have disappeared.

It was discovered!

Once the thought came to him, he couldn't suppress it. Immediately afterwards, he felt something hook around the back of his collar, and his feet left the ground.

It's been brought up.

"Where did this brat come from?"

Swish--

Vodka and Gin jumped down from the tree.

Gin?

Conan will never forget that voice; it was definitely Gin, right behind him.

"Could they be residents of the guesthouse?" Vodka asked curiously.

“Impossible,” Xia Chuan shook his head in denial. “But he looks somewhat familiar. I think I saw him at the opening ceremony of the Twin Towers skyscraper.”

Tequila?
Despite wanting to call out the names of the three people in his mind, Conan held back.

The three men were behind him. If he acted like an ordinary child, he might have a chance to live. But if he called out their code names, he wouldn't just live, he'd be scattered to the winds.

"Why are the children from the opening ceremony here?"

Gin wanted to see Conan's face, but because Natsukawa was holding Conan by the back of his collar, he couldn't see it.

"Never mind, why we ended up here isn't that important."

Gin shook his head to himself and took a small white box out of his pocket.

"Since it's a child, I wonder what would happen if I gave him an APTX4869?"

This idea came on a whim, but there were other reasons as well.

The real reason is similar to the reason for drugging Shinichi Kudo before: they were worried that if gunshots were heard again, it would attract the attention of the police.

Conan's forehead instantly broke out in a cold sweat.

The first time he took the medicine, he went from a high school student to an elementary school student, and a first-grade elementary school student at that. If he takes another one now, he might die, but if he doesn't, how old will he become?

The thought of himself turning into a helpless infant made Conan's head buzz; this worry even outweighed his fear of death.

Indeed, death might be easier to bear, but being turned into a child is truly agonizing.

It was only then that Conan remembered he should learn from Ai Haibara.

He had been told off many times, but he was still the same boy he used to be, without changing in the slightest.

A chilling wind swept across his face. Conan smiled bitterly, lowered his head, and tears streamed down his face.

What would happen to Xiaolan if I died?
Will she wait for Shinichi Kudo forever, or will she become someone else's wife in the future?

No, I must survive!
The thought of Ran possibly marrying someone else fills Conan with nameless rage.

As the sound of the medicine box being opened came out, Conan became increasingly anxious.

Three people, all of whom are highly skilled professional assassins.

In this situation, relying on a wristwatch-type tranquilizer gun is clearly insufficient.

"Little friend, would you like some candy from Uncle?"

Natsukawa stretched his head and leaned close to Conan's ear. It was quite lewd for Tequila to say such things, and as his face got closer, Gin and Vodka both took a step back.
