The Pirated Onmyoji of the Detective World

However, no one noticed that a black Porsche was parked quietly on the side of the street.

Inside the car, a man with a sinister grin was staring intently at them.

"Alright, this should all end now!" The man adjusted the rearview mirror, looking at Ai Haibara's reflection with amusement. "To celebrate our reunion, let's celebrate with the bright red color of your favorite rose!"

"Hehehe!" The man in black lit a cigarette, took a deep drag, then opened the car door and slowly got out, leaning against the side of the car. "Ah, Shirley!"

At that very moment, the wind and snow in the sky seemed to suddenly intensify.

Ai Haibara, with her head down and seemingly lost in thought, suddenly felt a strong sense of malice coming from behind her.

When she subconsciously turned around to look behind her, the man who came into her view made her pupils shrink and she was instantly terrified.

This, how is this possible!

It's...it's him!

Gin!

……

"what!!!"

With a sudden increase in her heart rate, Ai Haibara abruptly sat up in her sleep.

Still reeling from the fear, Ai Haibara gasped for breath and frantically looked around.

He only breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that he was still at Professor Agasa's house.

"I had another nightmare..." Ai Haibara smoothed her hair, wiped the cold sweat from her forehead, and her voice still trembled slightly.

Even though this nightmare hadn't occurred for a long time because of her older sister's appearance.

In the dark room, Ai Haibara stared blankly ahead, lost in thought.

I don't know why, but I keep dreaming about this scene lately.

……

the next day.

In the classroom of Class 1-B at Teitan Elementary School.

Perhaps it's because of the nightmare I had last night.

Ai Haibara couldn't help but yawn as she walked to her seat, looking somewhat listless.

"Haibara-kun, look, this is the MO I borrowed last time. Please tell the Doctor that the game he designed this time exceeded my expectations!"

Just then, Mitsuhiko suddenly ran over excitedly and handed the game software in his hand to Ai Haibara.

“Okay, I’ll pass it on to him.” Ai Haibara took the software and nodded to Mitsuhiko.

During this period, Professor Agasa would often give the games he designed to these children for testing.

"The sound effects in this game are absolutely amazing!" Genta, standing next to Mitsuhiko, couldn't help but exclaim.

Clearly, he also tried out the game.

"Compared to the last time, it's so much better!"

"Come and see!"

Ai Haibara was just wondering why Ayumi hadn't been around all day when she heard her voice coming from the window, "It's started snowing outside!"

"is that true?!"

Sure enough, snow has an unparalleled attraction for children.

In an instant, Mitsuhiko and Genta even forgot to continue their discussion about the game and excitedly ran towards Ayumi.

"snow……"

However, when Ai Haibara heard this, her body stiffened involuntarily, and she subconsciously recalled the dream she had the day before.

Just as she was trembling with fear because of Gin, whom she had met in her dream, a hand suddenly landed on her arm.

"what!"

Startled, Ai Haibara turned around sharply.

He then realized that Ayumi had somehow appeared beside him, tugging at his arm and inviting him, "Haibara-san, come to the window and look at the snow too!"

"Please don't touch me!" Due to excessive tension, Ai Haibara's emotions had not yet calmed down, and her voice sounded so cold.

Of course, it might be because she started to worry about getting too much contact with these little guys.

If Gin discovers this, these little guys around him will also be at his mercy.

"what?"

Ayumi seemed bewildered by Ai Haibara's sudden remark, standing frozen in place, unsure of what to do.

Even Conan, who was standing to the side, looked at Ai Haibara with surprise.

"Haibara-san, what's wrong with you?" Mitsuhiko, who was by the window, had obviously noticed something was wrong and asked with some concern.

“I’m…tired of this place…” Ai Haibara suddenly lowered her head, her expression turning somewhat gloomy. “I wish I could just disappear from here right now…”

"Heh..." Ai Haibara chuckled to herself, then glanced meaningfully at Conan beside her. "But I think it should be soon!"

"Haibara..." Conan, seeing Ai Haibara suddenly become self-destructive for no apparent reason, clearly realized something.

After a moment of stunned silence, he was about to say something to comfort her, though he didn't know what had happened.

"what?"

Suddenly, Ayumi Yoshida, who was standing nearby, shouted.

Ayumi wasn't hurt by Ai Haibara's cold reply. Instead, she stared wide-eyed at Ai Haibara in utter astonishment. "Haibara-san! You're transferring schools!?"

"Forehead……"

Startled by Ayumi's sudden outburst, Ai Haibara momentarily forgot her earlier self-destructive mood and blinked her big eyes blankly.

"Tell us quickly, has someone bullied you?"

"Don't be afraid. If anyone bullies you, I'll definitely beat them up for you!"

Mitsuhiko and Genta also rushed over anxiously at this moment.

"So, Haibara-san, please stop saying you're leaving!" Ayumi pleaded, looking at Haibara with a hint of expectation.

"..."

Ai Haibara looked at the little ones who had gathered around to show their concern with some surprise.

I don't know why, but I suddenly felt a warmth in my heart.

"Okay, okay, I was just kidding!" Ai Haibara chuckled and explained to them, "Why are you so nervous!"

"Huh?" Ayumi looked puzzled.

"I just feel like I'm about to catch a cold, and I'm a little worried. I don't want to infect you guys," Ai Haibara said casually.

"Oh, it's just a cold!"

"When people are sick, they tend to say discouraging things!"

When Ayumi and the others heard Ai Haibara say that, they immediately relaxed.

Only Conan glanced thoughtfully at Ai Haibara, but didn't say anything more.

Chapter 391 Conan, a typical negative example (2-in-1)

It was also on the way home from school.

Mitsuhiko, Genta, and Ayumi skipped and hopped forward as they threw snowballs at each other.

Ai Haibara followed behind the children at a leisurely pace, her emotions noticeably more stable than stable; rather, she seemed to feel a touch of joy within her.

It turned out that just after school, Ai Haibara suddenly received a text message from her older sister—because Yu Aragaki had bought too much groceries, she was invited to have dinner at Yu Aragaki's house that night.

The joy of seeing his sister soon had completely overshadowed the fear Gin had instilled in him.

……

"Then we'll say goodbye here. See you at school tomorrow!"

At the crossroads, the Junior Detective League members greeted Conan and Ai Haibara before rushing across the street as the light turned green.

"Be careful on the road!" Conan waved and smiled at them.

[What will we eat tonight?] Ai Haibara was so lost in thought that she didn't even realize she had said goodbye to the children.

Little did she know that her pensive gesture and absent-minded expression caught Conan's eye, leading to a huge misunderstanding.

Conan kicked the soccer ball high into the air, using the sound to attract Ai Haibara's attention.

"This is not a place for me to stay."

"Huh?" Ai Haibara looked at Conan beside her, somewhat stunned.

Conan, expressionless, tilted his head back and used his chest to stop the falling soccer ball. While juggling the ball, he continued, "If we don't want to drag them all into this, we'd better disappear from here as soon as possible."

Seeing Ai Haibara's surprised expression, Conan finally stopped juggling the ball and looked at Ai Haibara, saying, "That's what you're thinking, isn't it!"
