Upon hearing his name mentioned, Guangyou abruptly stopped eating.

He turned to look at Conan beside him, as if to say:

"What does this have to do with me?"

Why did you drag me into this?

Having read Kousuke's gaze, Conan chuckled inwardly, but outwardly asked Kousuke:

"Kuangyou, you should be willing to help Ran-neechan investigate this matter, right?"

"Ah, this..."

Instead of giving a reply immediately, Guangyou glanced at Xiaolan first.

He then saw Xiaolan looking at him expectantly.

He could only force a smile and nod in agreement:

"Of course I'd like to."

"Leave this to me and Conan."

He deliberately emphasized the word "Conan".

However, Conan didn't pay any attention to these things, and had a faint smile on his face.

Xiao Lan was unaware of these clandestine confrontations.

Seeing that they both agreed, she clapped her hands happily and said:

"Then I'll leave this matter to the two of you."

"If you want to eat anything later, just tell me."

It seems shameful to ask two children for help.

But that's not actually the case.

The reason Ran agreed was because of Mitsuyuki and Conan's outstanding performance in previous cases.

After resolving this matter, Xiaolan continued eating her breakfast.

Uncle Mori was happy to have some free time since he didn't have to lift a finger.

Once Ran and Uncle Mori's attention was diverted, Kōyū turned to look at Conan.

The threat in his eyes was very strong.

But Conan is not afraid.

They had known each other for so long and understood that the other was not really angry.

He put down his chopsticks, patted Guangyou on the shoulder, and said:

Let's cheer each other on!

"Uncover the truth behind the 'paranormal events'!"

"Okay." Guangyou squeezed out the word through gritted teeth with a smile.

He knew why Conan had brought him along.

Isn't it because Conan couldn't beat him in a fight yesterday?

If Conan knew what Kousuke said after he defeated him yesterday...

At this moment, Conan also wanted to say something:

"young."

...

The following day, after school, Kōyū and Conan went to Teitan High School.

Because Ai Haibara had to go back to research the antidote, she didn't come along.

Ran and Sonoko were already waiting for them at the gate when they ran all the way to Teitan High School.

She waved to the two of them:

"Kuyou, Conan!"

"Here!"

Upon seeing that the helpers were Kousuke and Conan, Sonoko said with some disappointment:

"Xiao Lan, you said you wanted to find someone to help us investigate paranormal events."

"Could that person be this brat and Mitsuyu?"

"Hey, hey, hey, where's my name?" Conan thought with some dissatisfaction.

“A brat who doesn’t even have a name,” Kōyū said in a voice only he and Conan could hear.

"Tch..." Conan scoffed, offering no response.

When Sonoko asked, Xiaolan had no choice but to explain:

"Because my dad didn't want to come at all."

"How could a famous detective like him investigate something like this?"

Upon hearing this, Sonoko slapped her forehead.

"It really is exactly as you said before, Xiaolan."

She lowered her hand, bent down to look at Conan, thought for a moment, and said:

"Let's forget about it. How could a kid like that be capable of helping us investigate something like this?"

"I think we should just make him my assistant, the 'Queen of Deduction'."

On this matter, Conan and Mitsuyu share the same opinion.

They both chuckled inwardly.

Conan was thinking to himself:

"Who gives you the right to talk to me like that?"

Without him, Sonoko would never have earned the nickname "Queen of Deduction".

However, he didn't pay much attention to these things.

He's used to it.

...

"This is where you change your shoes."

Xiaolan got them a pair of indoor shoes, bent down to pick them up, and asked with a smile:

"This place should be a bit bigger than your elementary school, right?"

“Yes,” they both replied.

Looking at the familiar surroundings, Conan felt a pang of emotion:

"After all, I studied here."

"How could I not know?"

"Conan, Kouyu, you can put your shoes in my shoe cabinet." Ran asked beforehand and informed the two of them.

"Yes, thank you, Sister Xiaolan."

Just as the two finished thanking them, two girls walked towards them.

One of the round-faced girls wearing glasses asked:

"Xiao Lan, who are these two children?"

Another girl with long, flowing hair said:

"Aren't these two kids the ones you always talk about, Mitsuyu and Conan?"

"Yes!" Xiaolan nodded with a smile and said, "Isn't she very cute?"

Conan knows these two girls.

He instinctively felt that something was very wrong:

"It's the talkative Tashiro and Hidaka!"

Just as this idea popped into his head, the round-faced girl seemed to have discovered something interesting.

She stroked Conan's head and said with a smile:

“Look at the expression on his face.”

"He's like a miniature Kudo."

The long-haired girl bent down and said very seriously to Conan:

"Little friend, you must never become a detective fanatic when you grow up!"

Seeing the helpless expression on Conan's face, Kōyū really wanted to laugh.

He thought to himself:

Hehehe...

"It really is true that karma is cyclical, and no one escapes the judgment of Heaven."
