Conan: The Romantic Daily Life of a Ghost Detective

Fortunately, she didn't bite his finger in the end.

"Genta, what's wrong?" Ayumi's voice suddenly came.

Wen Shui went over and saw that Yuan Tai had gotten something in his eyes while riding the water roller coaster and was tearing up.

Miwako took out her backpack and comforted her, "Don't worry, I remember I brought some sterilized disposable wipes. Wiping it off will make it stop hurting."

"Why would Officer Sato bring something like that on a date? Is he worried that Wen Shui-ge has something dirty on him?" Ai Haibara stood on tiptoe, seemingly searching Miwako's bag for any suspicious rubber items.

Sato Miwako blushed: "No, it's just a habit of detectives. Sometimes we might use it when we encounter unexpected situations."

Ai Haibara nodded obediently: "Oh, I thought you were worried that Wen Shui-nii had something dirty on him and wanted to use disinfectant wipes to clean him up."

Sato Miwako subconsciously made a strange connection to it.

However, looking at Ai Haibara's innocent face, she felt that she was being too wicked; how could she think of such things in front of a child?

Warm water: "..."

Just then, Sato Miwako suddenly froze: "Huh? What's this?"

She took a sealed bag out of her pocket, opened it, and found a whole packet of anesthetic inside.

Everyone was shocked by this fact.

Sato Miwako then realized that the backpack only looked a bit like hers. She recalled that she had handed the backpack to the staff for safekeeping when she was riding the underwater train.

They must have accidentally taken the wrong one later.

The group immediately rushed to the luggage storage area of ​​the underwater train, not only to retrieve their backpacks but also, more importantly, to catch the thug.

Meanwhile, Wen Shui remembered that the familiar personnel configuration meant that, if she wasn't mistaken, the guy wearing the crab hat was a detective from the Metropolitan Police Department.

This amusement park date actually happens to be a case from the original Detective Conan manga.

Upon arriving at the front desk's personal belongings storage area, I inquired with the staff and learned that no one had come looking for the bag so far.

Considering that this package is worth tens of millions, it's impossible for the other party not to come looking for it if they find it.

After some reasoning.

Wen Shui guessed that since the culprit hadn't come looking for him after so much time, it was highly likely that the other party was a henchman who didn't know what was in the backpack, and the real transaction definitely hadn't started yet.

However, finding this person has become a problem that is troubling everyone.

While they were discussing the matter, Miwako Sato received a call from her mother and went out for a short while.

When she returned, Wen Shui clearly noticed that the expression on her face was not quite right.

Wen Shui guessed correctly, because when she met with her mother earlier, Sato Miwako was severely scolded because she had lost the Yamato Nadeshiko outfit, which seemed to be very expensive.

Moreover, her mother was somewhat suspicious that she and Wen Shui were actually a couple.

In other words, the next step is not only to find the culprit as soon as possible.

I need to maintain the facade of dating Wen Shui before my mother gets suspicious.

Damn it, I was really looking forward to this date, and I even dressed up specially, so why did it turn out like this?

Miwako couldn't help but grumble to herself.

If no one were watching, Sato Miwako might follow her heart and naturally choose to hug warm water while riding a roller coaster.

Of course, it could also be when you get splashed with water while watching a dolphin show at night...

Or perhaps it's during a leisurely stroll home after dinner...

In short, what Sato Miwako longs for is the kind of intimate contact that doesn't require conscious thought or calculation, but is based solely on instinct and spontaneity.

Even with kissing, if it's something she truly wants, she won't be so resistant.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have asked Yumi Miyamoto for that expensive tube of lip gloss.

However, with several groups of people watching her right now, Sato Miwako couldn't feel the sweetness that love should have. In fact, if it weren't for the criminals who were trading drugs, she would have wanted to just run away.

Miwako Sato took a deep breath.

I tried to calm myself down.

Forget about dates for now, let's just treat today as a disguised reconnaissance mission.

Perhaps due to her professional habits, the moment this thought popped into her head, the familiar state of mind instantly invigorated Miwako, and even her way of looking at things changed from before.

She discovered that she currently faced only two problems.

One of them is to find the criminals before they make the deal.

Another reason is to prove to my mother that she is indeed dating Wen Shui.

Miwako Sato suddenly realized that once she imagined her mother as a criminal who needed to be disguised and deceived during an investigation, her psychological pressure and thought process immediately opened up.

As long as you find a suitable opportunity, when your colleagues can't see you.

Just pretend to kiss warm water in front of your mom.

Sato Miwako looked around, thinking to herself that it was good that Professor Agasa had gone back early.

Even if I do something daring with Wen Shui in front of these kids, they should still understand adult emotions.

As Miwako made up her mind...

Wen Shui, who was flipping through the forms, suddenly shivered. He vaguely sensed an inexplicable killing intent approaching him.

"Why do you look so pale?" Wen Shui asked Sato Miwako curiously. "Did you find a suspect?"

Miwako shook her head: "No, I'm just a little worried that those people might cancel the deal."

Wen Shui: "Probably not. Conan and the others and I just discussed it when you went out."

"What did you find?" Miwako asked.

Wen Shui: "The hole on the left shoulder strap of this backpack is obviously much larger than that on the right, which means that this person is used to carrying this shoulder bag on their left arm."

Miwako's eyes lit up: "In other words, we can use this to identify the suspect!"

“That’s right,” Conan added. “By the way, this is the result that Wen Shui and I deduced.”

"And our Junior Detective Club!" the other kids exclaimed in unison.

Miwako Sato: "Uh, yeah, I see. You guys are really amazing."

Then she looked at Wen Shui and waved her fist at him to cheer him on: "Wen Shui, you're amazing too!"

"There's no need for this, I'm not a child anymore," Wen Shui couldn't help but complain.

Just as Miwako was about to speak, Ai Haibara interrupted her in an adult tone, "Let's go see the photos as soon as possible, or the prisoners might take them if we're too late."

Miwako then realized that now was not the time to flirt with Wenshui.

Miwako Sato specifically instructed the staff at the backpack storage area to detain anyone who came looking for a backpack and then immediately call her.

Then, the group hurried to the photo display area of ​​the underwater train.

.

No sooner had Miwako Sato left than a police officer wearing a crab hat arrived with two other people to question her.

At first, the lady at the backpack storage counter didn't want to tell the truth.

But when Officer Crab showed his police ID, she finally relented and told him what she knew.

"What? You're saying Miwako's backpack was replaced, and you might be investigating a drug deal?" Officer Crab was startled.

He then immediately ran to a secluded spot and used a communicator to contact Shiratori Ninzaburo.

Officer Shiratori: "What?! You're saying Miwako's backpack was switched, and she's involved in a drug deal?"

“Yes, I suspect that Miwako and the others just happened to find Yagura Maki?” said the officer in the crab hat.

Shiratori hesitated for a moment: "No, we must solve the case before Wen Shui does, otherwise the Metropolitan Police Department will lose face big time."

and……

"Warm water and tree solving cases usually attract a lot of reporters, and with Sato here today, the Metropolitan Police Department higher-ups will definitely give it a big publicity boost to enhance their own image."

"More than 30 of us are here to keep watch today."

"We haven't caught the criminals yet. If people find out, the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department will become a laughing stock, and our vacations for this year will probably be canceled."

"what?!"

"Being mocked by those guys from Osaka?"

"No way! I have a date with Sato!!!"

More than thirty police officers, who were lying in ambush throughout the Dorobiga Water Park, expressed strong resistance through their communicators.

Officer Shiratori said in a deep voice, "In short, Sato has a case to solve right now, so we don't need to worry about that kid Wenshui making a move against Sato for the time being. Let's focus our attention on the criminals first."

Immediately seal off the amusement park exits. The rest of the team should investigate other visitors inside the park carrying backpacks similar in style to Sato's, and maintain constant contact.

"Yes!!"

The communicator crackled with the energetic responses of the criminal investigators.

.

Wen Shui and his group arrived at the photo exhibition area of ​​the underwater train and found many photos hanging on the wall.

Some photos were left by previous visitors, while others were taken today. Not all photos from tourists are here; only the best ones are selected for everyone to enjoy.

The contrast between Genta's excited expression while riding the underwater train and Ai Haibara's indifferent demeanor was striking.

Their photos were selected and displayed on the wall.

Soon, Conan found a photo of the underwater train they were riding.

Besides Wen Shui and the others, there are four adults and one child in the photo. Excluding the child who is unlikely to have committed a crime, three of the other four people clearly have the characteristics of athletes.

They are a baseball player who makes a pitching motion in front of Genta, a swimming enthusiast with sunburn on his temples, and a soccer player with shin guard marks on his legs.

The characteristics of these three people also match the sports towel used for wiping sweat in the backpack that Miwako Sato mistakenly took.

Of course, that uncle didn't look like an athlete.
