Conan: The Romantic Daily Life of a Ghost Detective

A young girl's thoughts are always complicated. Even though she doesn't have a boyfriend yet, she's already thinking about what to name her child.

If it's a girl, how about Yoshiki Nukumizu? It sounds like she has a sweet and gentle personality, which would definitely be popular with boys. If it's a boy, how about Kazuhiko Nukumizu…

Huh, wait a minute!

Why does the child's name have to be Wen Shui's surname? Xiao Lan suddenly realized.

Just then, Xiaolan's phone vibrated continuously, indicating that someone had sent her a series of messages.

Xiaolan wiped the water off her hands, took out her phone, and saw it was a discussion group from the Literature Department.

At the top is a selfie of Sonoko Suzuki and Nukumizu, both dressed in Sherlock Holmes-style clothing, with a retro-looking room in the background.

Below the photo is a reply from the senior student: "This cosplay idea is great, Sonoko-kun, but please be careful with safety measures too."

Following him was the head of the Literature Club, Keisuke Kosaka, who questioned, "Manaka, didn't you say you were going to tutoring today? Why didn't you come?"

Senior High School Student: "I'm taking tutoring classes right now, and it's my break time."

"You're lying. I'm right here in the department store near you. I just saw you walk into the mall with my own eyes," said the stalker, Manager Kosaka.

Senior Sister Zhen: "Damn it, you actually followed me!"

Department Head Kosaka: "It's all because your grades are so worrying..."

The two started arguing in the group chat.

Xiaolan completely ignored the argument between the senior student and the club president, and swiped directly to the top photo, zooming in on the screen with her finger to examine it closely.

Their shoulders are practically touching...

You're laughing so happily, Yoshiki-chan will be angry if she sees you...

And the room in the photo is so big, it looks like two people could live there together...

Xiaolan's mind kept swirling with all sorts of strange thoughts.

After hesitating for a long time, she finally called Conan: "Conan-kun? Is Sonoko with you? Hmm, that's great. Could you please go to Sonoko's place? It seems like she's being bullied by bad guys."

.

After hanging up the phone, Conan looked out the window at the lush green lawn, his face darker than the chess pieces in the yard.

Xiao Lan is really going too far.

Although it's unclear where she got the information, if I'm not mistaken, it must be that Ran discovered what Wenshui and Sonoko were secretly doing again.

Damn it, why didn't Xiaolan come this time? He can still feel the sensation of having his precious treasure stolen by Wen Shui.

However, precisely because Ran didn't come along this time, Conan didn't need to keep an eye on Wen Shui all the time.

He glanced at Genta and the others, who were discussing excitedly, and suddenly his eyes lit up: "Hey, didn't you guys notice that Wenshui-nii and Sonoko-neechan are missing?"

With just one sentence, he tricked the Junior Detective League into going to settle scores with Wen Shui.

Even Ai Haibara followed with an unfriendly expression.

Conan watched the group leave, a sly smile playing on his lips, before continuing his search in the second-floor room.

Then, while investigating the room's walls, they accidentally triggered a mechanism on the wall clock and fell into a secret passage in the castle.

Conan checked and found that neither cell phones nor walkie-talkies had a signal here, and the entrance to the mechanism was also a one-way system. He called out for a long time, but no one responded.

Conan stared speechlessly into the dark tunnel.

Well, since we're already here, let's investigate whether the treasure is related to this secret passage. Maybe we can find the exit that way.

Conan walked forward along the dark passageway.

At this moment, Conan did not notice Mutsumi Nishikawa following behind him.

.

Ai Haibara and the three members of the Detective Boys arrived at the door of Sonoko Suzuki's room.

Upon discovering that Numizu and Sonoko had donned Sherlock Holmes detective outfits, his displeasure was all too obvious.

Although imitating the overall look is generally like this.

However, when a man and a woman wear these clothes, it always evokes the term "couple's outfits."

Genta crossed his arms and said, "What's going on? I thought you guys had found a clue, but it turns out you just went to change clothes."

“But this outfit looks pretty cool, why don’t we get one too?” Ayumi looked at Wen Shui’s outfit with curiosity.

Mitsuhiko: "But we also have detective badges."

"But this outfit looks better than the one I'm wearing. It makes me lose motivation when I'm doing investigations," Ayumi said persistently, clearly hoping she would have a matching uniform herself.

Meanwhile, Wen Shui also noticed that Ai Haibara was unhappy.

However, he had already thought of a way to appease her. He walked over and took out a light yellow headband from behind his back and put it on Ai Haibara.

Unexpectedly, Ayumi, who was also wearing a light yellow headband, ran over excitedly and grabbed Ai's hand: "Hey, Ai's headband looks just like mine! That's great, we have the same outfit now."

Ayumi's happy expression made Ai Haibara give up the idea of ​​throwing the headband in Luke's face, but she still decided to teach him a lesson while he was asleep that night.

Sonoko Suzuki: "That's strange, why does this headband look so familiar?"

“It’s yours. I just took it from my suitcase,” Wen Shui explained.

Ai Haibara stared at Wen Shui in shock, wondering what kind of thought process this guy had.

Did you think that would make me happy?

But before she could get angry, Sonoko Suzuki rushed over and hugged Ai Haibara in her arms: "Wow, so cute, you look exactly like me when I was little."

"Not at all. I've seen your childhood photos," Ai Haibara thought to herself.

However, Sonoko Suzuki obviously couldn't hear her thoughts, and continued to admire Ai Haibara's "new skin," even indulging in her own imagination.

If she had a daughter, she would probably be as cute as Ai Haibara, right?

Yeah, I feel like she'd be more lively. Ai Haibara is too cold; she's nothing like herself.

But that's not the point. What should I name my daughter if I really have one?

After a moment's thought, Sonoko Suzuki decided to take two characters from Nukumi's name: Nukumi Yoshiki for a girl and Nukumi Kazuhiko for a boy. Of course, it would be best to have twins...

Ugh, why am I thinking about these things? I feel so embarrassed.

As Sonoko Suzuki imagined scenes that made her blush and her heart race, she tightly hugged Ai Haibara's petite frame.

Ai Haibara's cheek kept touching the excess fat on Sonoko Suzuki's body, and she couldn't help but recall the invincible figure she once had.

His face showed an expression of utter despair.

.

After a brief incident, everyone quickly returned to the room where they had previously observed the chessboard, only to find that Conan had disappeared.

They searched all the nearby rooms but couldn't find him, and his communicator had no signal.

Ayumi asked worriedly, "I hope Conan isn't in trouble."

"It's unlikely, but judging from the state of the room, he may have encountered some kind of emergency," Wen Shui said, looking at the overturned stool in the room.

"An emergency?" The group looked at Wen Shui.

Wen Shui nodded: "That's right. You can see the stool on the ground is upside down, and there are a lot of books scattered around it. It was probably used as a footrest."

Wen Shui paused for a moment, then pointed to the wall clock: "Look at that clock again. There are obvious signs that it has been tampered with. In other words, Conan may have been interrupted while investigating the clock."

"Could it be that he was caught by the gardener for being naughty?" Genta guessed.

Ayumi: "No way, I don't think Mr. Tian is a bad person, he's just a little fierce."

Sonoko Suzuki interjected, "Alright, let's go ask the maids here first."

After saying that, the group found several maids cleaning the rooms on the second floor, but they said they had not seen the child pass by at all.

At this moment, a man with squinty eyes walked over with Tian Shengnan.

Tian Shengnan took the initiative to introduce the young man next to her to everyone; he was the son of her deceased wife, Mamiya Nobleman.

Noble Mamiya lived abroad since childhood and only returned here before the fire. After her mother's death, she stayed in the castle and lived a secluded life. She was very interested in the castle's treasures.

"By the way, what were you arguing about just now?" Mamiya Noble asked curiously.

Ayumi: "Conan has gone missing, and we're a little worried about him."

"Missing?" Mamiya Norito was taken aback. "Could it be that she went to the restroom downstairs?"

Tian Shengnan: "Is it that little boy with glasses? I'll go down and look for him."

“I’m going too.” Ayumi followed closely behind. The others also went to the restroom on the first floor.

Unfortunately, there was no trace of Conan inside, and even the restroom showed no signs of having been used recently.

Genta's eyes suddenly lit up: "I know! I know where Conan is!"

Everyone looked at Genta Kojima.

Genta Kojima cleared his throat and reasoned seriously, "I bet Conan is hiding in the castle, trying to scare us."

Mitsuhiko: "So that explains why Conan deliberately sent us away earlier. Besides, that guy can be quite childish sometimes."

Dr. Agasa thought to himself, "You guys are the ones who are really childish."

Afterwards, Wen Shui and his group, along with Mamiya Takato and others, searched the surrounding area but still couldn't find any trace of Conan.

So in the end, they simply decided to ignore him. In Genta's words, Conan would come out on his own when he got hungry.

However, to everyone's surprise, Conan did not appear until dinner time.

Mamiya Mitsuru returned in the afternoon, and at dinner, he warmly entertained Onamizu and his party, and they talked about the rumors surrounding the castle.

It's worth noting that, just like in the original story, Ayumi saved bread for Conan because she was worried he would go hungry.

However, perhaps because Sonoko felt a sense of familiarity with Ai Haibara wearing a headband, Sonoko kept putting food on Ai Haibara's plate during the meal.

This only made Ai Haibara feel even worse.

After dinner, the Junior Detective League began their operation to find Conan, with Nukumizu and Sonoko Suzuki joining in to help.

However, the roads around the castle were a bit slippery because it rained that night.

Sonoko Suzuki, dressed in a bulky detective outfit, tripped and fell, straining her back.
