"Sure!" Kitagawa Yu's answer was surprisingly quick, but before Ai could even feel happy, he continued, "You'll have to beg me~"
"Huh?" A big question mark immediately appeared on Ai's forehead.
"Please?"
“That’s right, it means exactly what it says, pray to me.” Kitagawa Yu reminded him with a smile, “Remember to be sincere, or I won’t receive it.”
"..."
Ai glared at him with dead fish eyes again, letting out a disgruntled snort through her small nose, but in order to see her long-dead sister sooner, she obediently did as Kitagawa Yu said.
only.
Five minutes later: "No! It's not sincere enough, not strong enough, I didn't receive it."
Ten minutes later: "Still no good, didn't receive it. When you pray, you need to clear your mind of all other thoughts, understand?"
Fifteen minutes later: "You fake loli, have you really turned your heart black? You're so much worse than the one from the parallel universe, aren't you?"
Before she could finish speaking, Ai had already grabbed Kitagawa Yu's arm and bit him in a fit of rage.
"hiss--"
"Are you a puppy? Why are you biting people? I'm just stating the facts!"
"Are you going to help me or not?" Ai, who was giving up, put her hands on her hips and started to act like a spoiled child.
However, Kitagawa Yu wasn't about to indulge her, and snorted, "I want to help you too, but if there aren't other believers in this world to serve as coordinates in time and space, I might not be able to come back after I take you away~"
Ai was taken aback by what she heard.
They can't come back? That won't do!
She has so many bonds in this world, including Conan, Ayumi, and Professor Agasa!
"Of course, I can bring your sister to see you." Kitagawa Yu's words made Ai breathe a long sigh of relief.
"I can have my sister come and see me!"
"But I'm very busy, okay? Who knows how long you two sisters will be together? Am I supposed to just wait for you the whole time? Although it's not impossible, I won't do something that doesn't benefit me."
"."
Ai looked conflicted and thought for a while before saying, "Then, can I see my sister for two hours? Aren't you also supposed to help me deal with Gin and Vodka who are waiting for me at Nagoya Station?"
"this one"
Kitagawa Yu considered it for a moment and finally agreed.
There was no other way; he really wanted to brainwash Vodka into becoming an FBL spy too. If even his closest driver became a spy, he'd be the only real villain in the entire distillery—how interesting would that be!
So, taking advantage of the two hours to travel to another world and bring Miyano Akemi over isn't out of the question.
"Alright, I'll help you out this time."
With a thought, Kitagawa Yu vanished from Ai's sight in an instant, just as he had come.
Meanwhile, in another world, Miyano Akemi, who was preparing lunch for her younger sister who was busy with experiments, was startled when Kitagawa Yu suddenly appeared beside her. Then, after recognizing Kitagawa Yu, she immediately showed a look of surprise and delight.
"Huh? Kitagawa-kun, what brings you here? Did the gods receive my prayers?"
"???" Kitagawa Yu looked at her with a puzzled expression, hesitated for a moment, and then asked, "What prayer? The god didn't tell me about it."
"Huh? Is that so?" Miyano Akemi explained somewhat embarrassedly, "It's the same as last time. Shiho, no, I mean Ai-chan, has been staying in the lab ever since we came back from the last trip, and it's been several months! So I prayed to the gods that Kitagawa-kun could take Ai out for a walk and relax again."
"Uh, maybe the gods were too busy and forgot to tell me?" Kitagawa Yu chuckled dryly and scratched his head, quickly changing the subject.
"I came here this time because I received a prayer from another Ai in a parallel world. In that world, you were killed by the Black Organization. Even she only managed to escape the Black Organization's pursuit by taking APTX4869 to shrink herself. So she has always wanted to see you again. Therefore, God sent me here to take you to see her and fulfill her wish."
Akemi Miyano's mouth was already agape, and after hearing the story, she couldn't help but feel a lump in her throat and her eyes seemed to well up with tears.
Even a sister in a parallel world is still a sister; it's so pitiful that she's all alone and miserable.
"Snapped!"
Once she turned off the stove, Miyano Akemi didn't even care whether her sister in this world could have lunch. She quickly took out a notepad, wrote a few words, and stuck it on the refrigerator. Then, without even taking off her apron, she grabbed Kitagawa Yu and begged him to take her there as soon as possible.
"Actually, you don't need to worry so much. Although Ai in that world doesn't have you, she has made many friends and formed deep bonds with them. Otherwise, she wouldn't have asked me to take you there; she would have come directly to me."
"I see!" Miyano Akemi breathed a slight sigh of relief.
However, upon seeing the shrunken Ai, she couldn't help but rush over and hug Ai tightly, tears welling up in her eyes.
Ai Haibara wasn't in much better shape. She had been pacing anxiously, waiting for Miyano Akemi to suddenly appear in front of her. She froze, her face showing an expression of unbelievable surprise, and then she couldn't help but burst into tears.
"Sister! Sister, I've finally seen you again! It's so wonderful! It's really wonderful!"
The fact that she, who rarely shows her emotions, could be sobbing uncontrollably shows just how agitated she was at that moment.
"Alright, you two sisters can chat as you please. I won't disturb you any longer. I've set up a soundproofing and defensive barrier in this room, so you can stay here in peace. I'm going out for a walk now."
After saying that, Kitagawa Yu opened the door of the private compartment and walked out, heading towards carriage number 8.
How can this Conan in this world not have experienced the suffering that Conan in the other world has gone through? Besides, a two-hour drive is so boring, we need to find some fun.
Whether by coincidence or not, he had just reached carriage number 8 when he saw Conan, that little devil, sneaking around the corner, holding his watch-shaped tranquilizer gun and aiming it at the back of Kogoro Mouri's neck, who was rambling on with several criminal suspects.
Isn't that just a coincidence?
"Hey! You little rascal! What are you doing sneaking around like that?!"
A sudden shout rang out right behind him, startling Conan so much that the hairs on his body stood on end.
Most importantly, my hand trembled, and unsurprisingly, the anesthetic needle missed its mark!
"???"
"!!!"
Kogoro Mouri and the others, who were not far away, were also startled by Kitagawa Yu's voice and turned to look at him.
At that moment, Kitagawa Yu grabbed Conan by the back of the neck and lifted him up with a wicked grin in his heart. Before Kogoro Mouri and the others could ask any questions, he took the initiative to explain: "When I walked over just now, I saw this kid using a watch with a sight on it to sneakily aim at this uncle, just like those watch-shaped pistols in many spy movies!"
Conan, who was initially confused and struggling unconsciously, suddenly froze, sweat beading on his forehead.
Ignoring whether it might seem like he was trying to cover something up, he instinctively tried to pull up his sleeve to hide his watch. But at that moment, prompted by Kitagawa Yu, Kogoro Mouri's gaze had already shifted from Conan's face to his wrist.
At this moment, the sight-shaped dial of the watch-shaped tranquilizer gun was still upright!
"Kid! Is this kid telling the truth? What's with the sights on your watch? And why are you aiming at me?" As he spoke, Kogoro Mouri strode aggressively toward Conan, reaching out to grab Conan's watch.
This left Conan completely dumbfounded.
What should we do now? If Kogoro Mouri discovers something's wrong and digs deeper, discovering his true identity, he'll definitely kill him, right?
You know, after he shrunk, he took many baths with Xiaolan and took advantage of her!
If it were him, he would definitely tear that person to pieces!
"Wait, wait a minute! It's just a toy! Uncle, don't snatch it—like this big brother said, it's just a toy I bought after watching one of those spy anime! The reason I was targeting you just now is because you were sitting in the luxury compartment of carriage 8 and made us go to carriage 6!"
Conan, quick-witted as ever, patted Kogoro Mouri's large hand to protect his watch from being stolen, while shouting loudly.
As expected, Kogoro Mouri paused, scratching his head awkwardly.
Although he is indeed thick-skinned, he knew without a doubt that he would be despised by everyone if Conan revealed this to outsiders.
Then, with a 'bang!'
Not knowing how to explain, Kogoro Mouri could only roughly punch Conan on the head.
Kitagawa Yu felt a sudden weight in his hand, which showed just how much force Kogoro Mouri had used in that punch.
"Tsk tsk, what a loving father and son-in-law! But Conan's head is really hard. He gets beaten up by Kogoro Mouri every day and he's still so smart. Does he also have Tanjiro's headbutt talent?"
Kitagawa Yu thought to himself with a strange feeling, his lips twitching, and he had to try very hard to stop himself from laughing out loud.
Chapter 192 Don't rush off!
However, it seems that Kogoro Mouri is starting to believe Conan's nonsense, whether it's the will of the world or something else. Kitagawa Yu obviously won't agree to that.
"Huh? Is that so? But I just saw something shoot out of the watch, and it just grazed this guy's neck, almost hitting the back of his neck!"
"???"
Kogoro Mouri paused, subconsciously reaching out to touch the back of his neck, which had been aching lately, a hint of suspicion flashing in his eyes.
He seemed to vaguely remember that his neck was perfectly normal before Conan stayed at his place.
At the same time, Conan froze, his pupils dilated, and after noticing Kogoro Mouri's expression, he broke out in a cold sweat, cursing under his breath.
"Who is this guy anyway?! Why is he so nosy and always bothering with a little kid like me?! Could the old man really be suspicious?"
At this point, Kitagawa Yu added in a serious tone, "Don't underestimate these children's toys. Nowadays, some unscrupulous merchants add many functions to children's products that are beyond their understanding and control in order to attract children's interest."
Kogoro Mouri's face darkened as he listened. He grabbed Conan's arm and pulled the wristwatch-shaped tranquilizer gun off his wrist, completely ignoring Conan's struggles.
At that moment, Kogoro Mouri suddenly remembered that Professor Agasa always invented some strange and dangerous inventions. Once, a bomb he invented almost blew up Miwako Sato and a building together. So this watch must be from Professor Agasa. Maybe it really has some function that is not suitable for children to play with?
Conan was completely dumbfounded.
"Oh no! Could it be that the old man has discovered the secret of the wristwatch-shaped tranquilizer gun?"
Thinking about the potential consequences if his true identity were discovered, to be honest, at that moment he had a slight urge to strike first and kill Kogoro Mouri to silence him.
"No, no, no, Uncle is Ran's father, how could I do that? At most, I'd just get a concussion and amnesia, right? I wonder if Professor Agasa could invent a gadget that makes people lose their memory."
"No, I need to calm down!"
"The tranquilizer dart in the watch has already been fired, leaving only the watch face with the crosshair. With the uncle's intelligence, he shouldn't be able to detect anything wrong!"
Conan secretly observes Kogoro Mouri's reaction.
As expected, Kogoro Mouri fiddled with the watch face for a while and pressed the buttons. After finding that nothing dangerous was fired, he immediately lost interest in the watch-shaped tranquilizer gun and tossed it back to Conan.
This left Kitagawa Yu speechless.
"This guy is a detective? He used to be a cop? No wonder the Japanese police and detective world can only be saved by Conan and Heiji Hattori."
Disappointed, Kitagawa Yu casually released Conan's grip on the back of the neck and threw him back to the ground.
Conan turned his head, his dead fish eyes fixed on Kitagawa Yu's hateful face, and made a deep impression on him, thinking that he must investigate this guy properly in the future and see if he could get revenge.
However, he immediately thought of his current situation and couldn't help but frown and become worried.
Without the wristwatch-type tranquilizer gun, and with Professor Agasa not here to cover for him, how is he supposed to solve the case?
