Chapter 943 Like a Family
Nobushige was thinking seriously when a familiar big face suddenly appeared in his sight, taking up three-quarters of the scene in front of him.
"Brother Asano, are you free recently?" Conan asked, "I have something I care about very much and I want to ask your help."
Hearing this, Nobushige didn't say anything, but Amuro Toru narrowed his eyes and asked, "Hasn't Conan-kun already moved to Kudo's house? What is so urgent that we need to come to Mr. Asano specifically?"
As soon as Conan saw Toru Amuro, he immediately became vigilant. He deliberately said in a childish tone: "It's nothing. It was Hattori-nii who invited us to go hiking."
…
Asano House in Yoneka Town
"It turns out that Kudo Shinichi was invited to re-investigate the case from a year ago."
Conan nodded: "Yes, because he couldn't contact me, he sent the letter to Hattori Heiji in Osaka."
"What's going on with that case?" Nobuhiro asked.
"The case happened a year ago. Hattori said that the person who sent the letter said that he discovered the error in my reasoning, so he invited me to re-investigate."
Haiyuan Ai gently twitched the corner of his mouth and said mockingly: "I'm afraid it's not about re-investigating, but letting you be severely humiliated by him with the truth on the spot, right?"
Conan: "...Maybe that's what it means, but I really don't understand why it's him. Even if others suspect it, Yada Makoto wouldn't have any doubts."
"You'll know after you go and see." Xinfan turned his head and looked at Haihara Ai, "It's time to take out that thing."
Hui Yuarai frowned: "Are you sure? It's still in the experimental stage."
Nobushige nodded firmly: "It doesn't matter, let Conan do it. He is determined enough and willing to devote himself to science."
"Well, I hope he can provide me with enough data." After Haihara Ai finished speaking, he turned and went upstairs.
Conan looked confused: "???"
What happened? Why couldn't he understand a word Mr. Asano and Haibara Ai said? Even though he didn't understand, he still had goosebumps all over his body, and he always felt that the future was not going to be good.
Soon Haihara Ai came down with a box in her arms. She placed the box on the dining table in front of Conan and said to him: "Open it and take a tube."
"What's this?"
Conan opened the box with doubts and saw three glass tubes lying quietly inside. The pills contained in the tubes could be seen through the transparent glass.
Conan understood instantly. He widened his eyes slightly and asked, "Hey, can this be the antidote to APTX-4869?"
"This is its antidote." Haibara Ai confirmed his suspicion, "Since the person invited is Kudo Shinichi, of course Kudo Shinichi should be allowed to attend the appointment."
She paused for a moment, then smiled again: "After all, humiliation like this is the most satisfying thing."
Conan: "..."
Asano Haibara Ai is really going too far now, but he is not angry. He is excited, happy and surprised to be able to restore Kudo Shinichi's identity. He will soon be able to return to Xiaolan. Compared with this, Other things simply don't matter.
"By the way." Xinfan suddenly reminded, "Xiao Ai's antidote is still in the experimental stage and is not permanent. According to our previous experimental data, if you take it, it will only last about twenty-four hours."
Conan suddenly felt suffocating and speechless.
He paid the wrong amount after all.
"What's the difference between these three tubes?" Conan asked, looking at the box.
"There is no difference." Haiyuan Ai replied calmly, "Because the materials are limited, I only made three. You choose one to eat. I will give the other two to my brother. He will judge your situation and decide whether to continue. Supply medicine.”
Conan was a little disappointed: "So there are only three days?"
"Are you kidding? How can it be three days? The human body will develop drug resistance, and the special characteristics of APTX-4869 determine that drug resistance will only become more serious. I am satisfied that the second drug can last for twelve hours ”
"It's not enough at all." Conan sighed, "I made an appointment with Hattori for three days."
Haiyuan Ai curled her lips: "After that, I can only ask Kudo-kun to come back early."
"That's all."
…
The next day, Nobushige drove to the station to pick up Hattori Heiji and Toyama Kazuha who had come from afar.
"Well, where is Ko-Conan?" Hattori Heiji didn't see the protagonist of this trip and was a little confused, "Isn't he going?"
Nobushige turned the steering wheel and turned the vehicle into a fork in the road: "Conan has to go to school, but there is someone you really want to see who will go with us."
Hattori Heiji pursed his lips: "Except for Conan, there is no one I want to go with now. How can Conan not go? He was specifically invited in the letter!"
Toyama and Ye were puzzled: "Isn't the person invited in the letter Kudo Shinichi?"
"Oh, we are all a family anyway, there is no difference."
"family?"
"What Hattori said is true." Nobushige smiled, "Conan now lives in Kudo Shinichi's house. Many neighbors around him say that Conan looks like the second son of the Kudo couple."
Just as he was talking, the Mori Detective Agency arrived.
From a distance, Hattori Heiji saw a man and a woman standing on the roadside. When he got closer, he suddenly realized that they were Kudo Shinichi and Maori Ran! !
Hattori Heiji was shocked: "Kudo? How could it be him?!"
"Isn't this strange? Wasn't it Kudo who you originally invited?" Toyama and Ye greeted them with a smile, "Good morning, Xiaolan, Kudo!"
Mao Lilan was very surprised to see her: "He Ye, it turns out you are here too."
"Are you going to Aosui Village too?"
"What Okuho Village?" Hattori Heiji looked disgusted, "I told you it was Higashi Okuho Village, the Higashi Okuho Village on the outskirts of Okuho Town."
"What? Did you say that before?"
The chattering noises of Toyama Kazuha and Hattori Heiji gave Nobushige a headache, and he quickly urged Kudo Shinichi and Maori Ran to get in the car. It's just that he simply didn't realize that he had become the only single person between the two couples.
Double dog food is really delicious!
"It's better like this." Toyama and Ye sighed, "The person who sent the letter specifically said to invite Kudo over. If I didn't bring Kudo with me, it would feel a little inappropriate."
Kudo Shinichi said: "I have been busy with other cases recently, and I didn't originally plan to go. But in the end, I still cared about the things mentioned in the letter."
"Are there still many cases recently?" Mao Lilan asked with concern, "Are they dangerous cases like what happened on the Tokyo Tower before?"
"No, no!" Kudo Shinichi shook his head quickly, "It's just an ordinary murder. The police need detectives to help investigate. There is no danger at all!"
Hattori Heiji, who was sitting in the passenger seat, turned to look at Kudo Shinichi: "If you don't resolve the matter in Higashi Okuho Village, you probably won't even bother to solve the case, right? After all, people are questioning the correctness of your reasoning."
