Conan: The Romantic Daily Life of a Ghost Detective

The curriculum for children of this age is relatively relaxed. Apart from a few specialized classes, most of the time is spent playing with the children under the guidance of the teachers.

After school, Ayumi took the initiative to invite Ai Haibara to investigate the case together.

Although Ayumi felt that this beautiful girl with Western ancestry posed a certain threat to her.

However, Agatha's behavior of always hiding in a corner and not communicating with anyone made Ayumi suspect that she might have some unspeakable secret, such as autism.

Otherwise, children that age would not usually transfer from such a far-away country.

Moreover, I heard that Agatha's parents are not in this country, and she usually stays at Professor Agasa's house.

This further fueled Ayumi's suspicions.

Conan originally thought that Ai Haibara would refuse, thinking that she would seize every opportunity to go back and research the antidote, but unexpectedly, Ai Haibara agreed.

The group walked towards the shoe cabinet.

Conan deliberately lagged behind and couldn't help but ask, "Hey, what exactly are you trying to do?"

“I’m not doing anything. I’m not like you. I didn’t go to kindergarten when I was little, so I don’t know how kids this age should behave,” Ai Haibara explained calmly. “I think being with you guys is a good way for me to integrate into this role more quickly.”

"I see."

Conan nodded, then couldn't help but explain, "By the way, this isn't a kindergarten."

Ai Haibara chuckled softly and raised her hand to brush a stray strand of hair behind her ear.

Upon arriving at the shoe cabinet, Genta Kojima explained their usual method of accepting commissions: having others place the commission letter in their shoe cabinet.

But in reality, we don't usually get any commissions.

What a coincidence! A letter actually ended up in Genta's shoe today.

The client was their classmate, whose older brother had gone out to buy something a few days ago and hadn't returned, so they wanted to ask the Junior Detective League for help in investigating.

After inquiring about the relevant information regarding the commission.

The Junior Detectives decided to go to that classmate's house to investigate and see if his brother had left any clues before he left.

After leaving the school gate, Conan appeared full of energy.

Ai Haibara lowered her voice and said, "You're not thinking that with Nuwa not around, you'll finally have a chance to show off your skills, are you?"

“How could that be? I’m not that naive,” Conan immediately retorted. “Besides, my reasoning skills are much better than his. It’s just that it’s not easy for me to use my abilities after my body shrinks, and I can’t see many clues.”

Ai Haibara smiled and said, "Oh? I see."

Conan blushed a little under her gaze.

Although he didn't show it, that's what he really thought. Whenever Wen Shui was around, his brain seemed to be shrouded in a fog, and he was always slower than Wen Shui.

"Hey, Conan, hurry up!" Genta Kojima, who had already walked some distance away, turned around and called out.

"Ah, here it comes."

Conan jogged a few steps to catch up.

Ai Haibara, with her hands behind her back, followed the group.

After they had gone far away.

Wen Shui and Shu emerged from behind the telephone pole, watching the backs of the few little devils.

So Conan really wanted to defeat me.

However, this time it probably won't work. If I'm not mistaken, this case should be about the painter being kidnapped and helping the kidnappers make counterfeit money. The perpetrators are suspected to be ordinary criminals from the Black Organization.

Wen Shui felt he needed to take this opportunity to demonstrate his ability to protect Ai Haibara and prevent her from overreacting.

Chapter 116 Miwako Sato has fallen in love.

Half an hour later, Ai Haibara arrived at the front of her classmate Toshiya's house with the Detective Boys.

Junye's house is a brand-new detached house with two floors and a large yard. Several trees are planted on both sides of the main entrance.

Overall, it's somewhat like a smaller version of the Kudo family's house.

What's also noteworthy is that a police car was parked on the roadside near the main gate, indicating that criminal investigators had come ahead of time to investigate.

Just as Conan was pondering which police officer had arrived and whether he could get some useful clues from him...

The three members of the Junior Detective League have already rushed up to the police.

"It's a police car, and it looks like the latest model." Genta Kojima pressed his face against the passenger-side window and peered inside.

Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya squatted down to examine the scratches on the chassis and shook his head: "No, the chassis of the car has obvious signs of use. It should only have the interior and paint refurbished."

Ai Haibara deliberately sighed to Conan:

"Even if Wen Shui didn't come, it seems there are other detectives here who are more proactive than you in finding clues."

Conan rolled his eyes: "This kind of discovery doesn't help solve the case at all. These guys are just being distracted."

After saying that, Conan walked over and patted Genta on the shoulder: "Hey you guys, this isn't the time to be looking at cars, is it? We're here to investigate the case of Junya's disappearance."

The three little ones then realized what was happening.

Genta and Mitsuhiko secretly glanced at Ai Haibara, and then Genta awkwardly argued, "We're investigating too. A true detective doesn't overlook any detail."

Mitsuhiko: "That's right, that's right."

Conan rolled his eyes again in front of the others.

At that moment, the door to the entrance behind them opened, and Junye's mother and two plainclothes detectives came out.

Junye's mother: "You've really gone to a lot of trouble, coming all this way."

Officer Chiba shook his head: "This is what we should do. If you think of anything, you can call us immediately. If you receive a strange call, pay attention to the details of what the other party says."

Junye's mother nodded to indicate that she understood.

Inspector Chiba and her colleagues walked towards the gate. As they approached, Sato Miwako looked at the group of kids curiously: "Conan? What are you doing here? Is Mr. Mori here too?"

Conan: "No, Officer Sato, the missing person is the older brother of one of our classmates, so I came to help with the investigation."

"Oh, I see."

Sato Miwako glanced at both sides of the road, regretting that she couldn't find the two members of the Suzuran Detective Club who usually accompanied her.

I wonder if that bastard Wen Shui has come back from Izu yet.

"By the way, Officer Sato, Officer Chiba, why didn't you drive your own cars today?" Ayumi asked curiously.

Officer Chiba scratched his head awkwardly: "Well, the night before last, when I was chasing a criminal, I wanted to take a shortcut, but I accidentally bumped into Officer Sato's car from the side and flipped it over, so..."

When this was mentioned, Miwako Sato's expression clearly showed displeasure:

"You have the nerve to say that? You couldn't even get through such a simple bend. If Shiratori hadn't been blocking the way, the prisoner from last night would have really escaped."

"sorry."

Officer Chiba bowed his head and gave his 28th apology since the incident.

.

After exchanging greetings, Conan took the initiative to ask about clues in the case, but unfortunately, Sato Miwako had only taken on this case temporarily and didn't have any useful information yet.

The two then planned to look around at the various pachinko parlors, kabuki theaters, and casinos run by yakuza.

According to the police, people of Junye's age who suddenly disappear are very likely to be in such places. Some of them are addicted to them, while others are forced into it.

As soon as Officer Chiba got into the car, Miwako Sato lowered her voice and asked Conan, "By the way, have Ran and Nukumizu returned from Izu?"

Conan: "We came back the day before yesterday."

"The day before yesterday?" Sato Miwako looked surprised, then asked again, "Were they injured while swimming, or had any difficulty moving around?"

"No," Conan thought for a moment. "It seems that only Uncle Mori got his thigh pinched by a crab on the beach, and Wenshui and Ran caught a serial killer."

Miwako Sato's expression was somewhat unnatural.

"Is that so?" She smiled and patted Conan's hair. "That guy, Wen Shui, seems to be possessed by a jinx; he runs into cases wherever he goes."

Ai Haibara, with her hands behind her back, looked at Miwako Sato's somewhat unnatural expression and her several attempts to subtly inquire about Nukumizu.

I was also a little unhappy.

Did that stupid policewoman also get fooled by that bastard?

Wen Shui is really resourceful. She felt that Wen Shui could get involved with any of the older, washed-up female idols or popular young girls around his age.

Unexpectedly, even the blank space between these two ages has now been filled by this silly policewoman.

Ai Haibara snorted coldly.

If he's playing a card collecting game, he'll probably target Ayumi Yoshida next, right?

Ai Haibara walked into Shunya's house with her little schoolbag on her back. While changing her shoes in the entryway, she suddenly realized something.

Why did I have to be fooled by that bastard?

.

After Conan arrived at Toshiya's brother's room, he began his investigation.

The three members of the Junior Detective League were also full of energy.

Only Ai Haibara stood with her hands behind her back, calmly watching the children.

"Wow, this is..." Kojima Genta, who was in charge of investigating the wardrobe, suddenly exclaimed.

Conan, who was about to crawl under the bed, quickly got up and ran over to see what was happening, and found that Genta was holding a pair of sneakers.

Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya also looked at the shoes in Genta's hand with excitement.

Conan: "What's wrong with these shoes?"

"Conan, you don't recognize this?" Mitsuhiko asked in surprise. "This is a very expensive model, a limited edition."

Conan was speechless for a moment.

"Hey you two, why don't you find some useful clues?"

"Stop arguing, we know how to investigate!" Yuan Tai said.

Mitsuhiko added, "At least we now know that Junya's older brother had a habit of buying expensive sneakers, and maybe his disappearance is related to that."
