The Pirated Onmyoji of the Detective World

Just as he didn't want to implicate Ran, Ai Haibara also didn't want to involve Masami Hirota.

Um, maybe also Aragaki Yu.

"Humph!"

Seeing that Conan seemed to understand her meaning, Ai Haibara snorted coldly and then turned and went back into her room.

After learning that her sister was still alive and reuniting with Shizue, and after her previous near-death experience with Gin, Ai Haibara no longer wanted to have anything to do with the organization.

Although drug research related to APTX-4869 is still ongoing, it is only to create an antidote that will turn them back to their original form.

Moreover, she vowed that even if there was any progress in the research on the antidote, she would not tell Kudo.

Unless the organization no longer poses any threat to them.

Otherwise, who knows what kind of trouble Shinichi Kudo, that reckless guy, would get into next.

……

the other side.

After waving goodbye to Akemi Miyano at the front door, and watching the taillights of Akemi Miyano's car gradually disappear from sight, Yuu Aragaki stood at the front door for a moment, but did not turn around and go back into the house.

After the Snow Woman confirmed that no one was following her, Aragaki Yu started to turn back.

With his hands in his pockets, he slowly walked back in the direction he had come from with Miyano Akemi, until he saw Shinichi Kudo's house and then slowly stopped at the gate of his yard.

The courtyard was quiet. Looking up, the house of Shinichi Kudo's family stood quietly in the center of the courtyard, shrouded in darkness.

Every window was tightly closed, and not a single ray of light shone through them.

It's clear that no one has lived here for a long time.

However, Aragaki did not linger there for a moment, but instead walked towards the gate of his house's courtyard.

The next moment, he gently pushed open the courtyard gate.

"crunch-"

The sound of the courtyard gate being pushed open was quite clear in the quiet night, but it did not attract the attention of the surrounding residents.

However, Yuu Aragaki did not show any surprise at the fact that the gate to Shinichi Kudo's house was not locked.

Instead, he wore an expression that said, "I knew it would happen," and walked into the courtyard with a strange look on his face.

Chapter 617 The Mysterious Man in the Kudo Mansion

The courtyard was very quiet.

Yet it doesn't appear desolate.

Yuu Aragaki wasn't particularly surprised.

Although Shinichi Kudo and his parents haven't been back for a long time, Ran, who is considered "half the mistress of the house," comes over from time to time to help clean the house inside and out.

Yuu Aragaki has heard Sonoko complain about this many times.

Soon, Aragaki Yu crossed the courtyard and stood in front of Kudo Shinichi's house.

Then, surprisingly, he raised his hand and gently tapped his knuckles on the door, making a "thump-thump" sound.

……

However, the room was deathly silent, and there was no response whatsoever.

It should have been a matter of course, but Aragaki Yuu had a helpless expression on his face.

dong dong dong-

Yuu Aragaki knocked on the door again, but still received no response. Suddenly, she reached out, grasped the doorknob, and gently turned it.

The next second, there was a "click" sound, and just like the gate to the courtyard, the door to the house was pushed open without any resistance.

The house was pitch black, with only a few slivers of cold moonlight shining into the living room through the open door, making it look somewhat eerie.

The timid Yuki-onna, who had been sitting obediently on Aragaki Yu's shoulders, suddenly panicked and hid in the Yin-Yang Domain, unwilling to come out again.

However, Yuu Aragaki did not hesitate at all and decisively entered Shinichi Kudo's house.

"Excuse me." Even though there was no one in front of him, Aragaki Yu muttered softly to the darkness around him.

creak-

For some unknown reason, Yusuke Aragaki had only taken two steps into the house when the door he had just opened closed automatically.

With a loud "bang," the last remaining light in the room disappeared, creating a momentary feeling of complete darkness.

Yuu Aragaki frowned subconsciously, and then, relying on his memory, groped his way towards the light switch in the living room.

However, he had only taken one step when he felt a gust of wind from a punch rushing straight toward him.

But as if he had expected it, Aragaki Yu narrowed his eyes slightly and dodged the sneak attack in the darkness with just a sidestep.

Immediately afterwards, Aragaki Yu raised his hand and grabbed the other person's wrist precisely.

He lightly hooked his foot, a seemingly casual movement that actually concealed a clever technique, and then casually pushed with his hand.

In an instant, a delicate cry rang out in the darkness, disrupting the attacker's fierce offensive. The attacker staggered uncontrollably as Yuu Aragaki pushed him away. In his panic, he tried to steady himself, but due to excessive force, he stumbled back several steps and crashed into the wall.

Yuu Aragaki followed closely behind, pressing the other man's raised hands against the wall.

The attacker clearly didn't want to surrender so easily; his chest heaved violently, and his breathing became slightly rapid.

The next moment, the attacker also twisted his body, just about to raise his leg to force Aragaki Yu back.

But it was as if Aragaki Yu had seen through the other party's intentions; his eyes sharpened, and he reacted quickly.

He extended his right leg and precisely blocked the attacker's knees.

This sudden stop was like pressing the pause button on the attacker's resistance. The attacker's knee seemed to be locked by an invisible force, his leg movements instantly stiffened, and he froze on the spot, not daring to move an inch.

The body, which had been struggling violently, suddenly went limp.

Seeing that the other party seemed to have given up resisting, Aragaki Yu reached for the light switch on the wall with his other hand.

"Wait...wait a minute, don't turn on the light, little brother Aragaki!"

Just as Aragaki Yu was about to turn on the light, the attacker, who was being held captive by Aragaki Yu, suddenly spoke.

really……

Upon hearing that familiar voice, Aragaki Yu immediately released his grip on the other person's hands and quickly took two steps back.

"..."

A moment of silence fell over the dark hall.

A few seconds later, as the other person took out their phone and turned on the screen, Yukiko Kudo's figure appeared in front of Yu Aragaki under the dim light of the phone screen.

Perhaps because of the fight just now, Yukiko Kudo looked a little disheveled, and there was a faint, unnatural blush on her face.

She breathed a slight sigh of relief, then looked at Aragaki Yu somewhat embarrassedly and said with an awkward smile, "Little brother Aragaki, it's been a long time!"

Although Yukiko Kudo said it had been a long time.

However, in Aragaki Yu's memory, it seems that he had just met this Teitan princess and another queen not long ago.

However, Yuu Aragaki didn't seem to be too bothered by the chaotic timeline. Instead, he looked at Yukiko Kudo with a mixture of helplessness and confusion and asked, "Yukiko-neechan, what are you doing now?"

"a ha ha ha……"

As Yukiko Kudo scratched her head and laughed awkwardly, Yuu Aragaki continued, annoyed, "You deliberately lured me here, you didn't just want to beat me up, did you!"

Hearing what Aragaki Yu said, Kudo Yukiko stopped her awkward laughter and replied apologetically, "I'm really sorry, I just wanted to joke with you, but I ended up being the one who suffered..."

At this point, Yukiko Kudo gave Yu Aragaki a strange look.

She was the one who launched the sneak attack in the dark, but unexpectedly, she ended up being subdued by her opponent.

She can still feel a dull ache in many parts of her body, and if she were to lift her clothes, she would probably see bruises all over her body.

Thinking of this, Yukiko Kudo grinned and gave Yuu Aragaki a reproachful look, "Honestly, he has no chivalry whatsoever..."

Yuya Aragaki glanced sideways at Yukiko Kudo's eye roll, feigning ignorance.

After all, arguing with a woman like Yukiko Kudo about who is right and who is wrong is pointless.

……

It turned out that just as Aragaki Yu and Miyano Akemi were saying goodbye to Professor Agasa's house and preparing to leave...

However, Aragaki Yu suddenly noticed the second floor of the Kudo residence not far away.

A dark figure was watching everything through the second-floor window.

Aragaki Yu was certain that the moment he looked up, the dark figure also noticed that he had discovered his presence.

However, the other person did not try to avoid her. Instead, she waved at her before drawing the curtains again, as if she was not worried at all that she had been discovered.

Or perhaps, the reason the other person stood by the window and opened the curtains was precisely to attract their attention.

"So, what exactly do you want from me?"
