Chapter 51

Class B, Grade 1, Teitan Elementary School.

After Mr. Yuji Itadori finished reading his diary, the whole class exclaimed in surprise.

Many students said that they wanted to see what the big brother who ran faster than a dog looked like.

Then the children's wish came true, because the next person to come on stage was Sugawara Megumi.

The unhappy classmate Sugawara Megumi said: "Today a dessert robber came to my house and made a mess of my living room. I hate him."

Little Sugawara Megumi held up the painting in her hand with a serious face: "If anyone sees this guy, don't let him into the house."

On the held-up white paper was an abstract painting: a long-legged stick figure with a white straw head and a grin that revealed steel fangs.

After class, Ayumi looked at the empty desk with a worried look on her face: "Conan hasn't come to school for a week. Is he sick?"

"That guy couldn't be afraid to come because his lame lie was discovered, that idiot." Yuan Tai touched his head.

"Is there a possibility that Conan is really Kudo Shinichi and has turned back?" Yuji Itadori blinked.

"Conan is such a childish guy, he doesn't look like a high school student at all," Mitsuhiko said with a look of disbelief.

After school, the classmates suggested going to visit Conan.

The first stop was the Maori Detective Agency. Sitting in the boss chair, Maori Kogoro snorted coldly when he heard their questions: "That kid doesn't live here anymore. His parents took him away.

That bastard boy will never have the chance to live here in his lifetime." The mustache man said viciously, clenching the beer bottle in his hand.

The children were frightened by the terrifying appearance of Maori Kogoro, but Maori Kogoro was in a good mood.

He glanced at the little boys in the room as if picking potatoes, and finally his eyes stopped on Yuji Itadori and Megumi Sugawara.

The uncle who was originally spitting fire now looked extremely kind: "Xiao Lan's cooking is delicious, you two can come to my house more often."

The two little boys looked at each other, and finally nodded obediently.

Maori Kogoro nodded in satisfaction and gave each of the children a squid tentacle as a side dish. "Right now, I prefer anyone to the detective boy."

"So Conan didn't sleep on the floor at Uncle Maori's house, where is he now?" Genta asked in confusion.

The children who were gnawing on the squid tentacles looked at each other and decided to go to Dr. Agasa's house next.

The chubby doctor was very happy to see the children coming, and after the squid tentacles, the children were fed cakes enthusiastically.

"Children, Conan may not be able to go to school with you in the future." Dr. Agasa said with an embarrassed look on his face.

"How could this happen? Is Conan going to transfer schools?" Ayumi sniffed.

"No, Conan didn't transfer schools nor leave Beihua. He will accompany everyone in another form." Dr. Agasa said with a smile.

Then Dr. Agasa noticed that all the children's expressions changed.

Sugawara Megumi and Itadori Yuji showed hesitant expressions, and their little heads were full of little question marks.

The expressions of the children in the Junior Detective League have changed from shock to sadness.

When the children were all sobbing with tears in their eyes, Dr. Agasa finally realized the ambiguity in his words.

Kudo Shinichi put a ruler on his head and drew marks on the wall with chalk, and found with satisfaction that his height had now exceeded one meter.

"Shinichi, are you home?" Dr. Agasa's voice sounded outside the door.

"Doctor, the door is not closed, just come in." Kudo Shinichi said.

Ever since he started growing up through unconventional means, the house has become very lively.

The Japanese police who came to report on the case and were curious about how he grew up, his parents who suddenly became interested in him but were mostly out meeting friends, and Ran who came to visit him every day.

Conan looked at himself in the mirror and soon noticed the Young Detectives appearing behind him.

The little boy, who hasn't completely turned back into Kudo Shinichi, still seems to have retained a bit of baby fat, and his familiar expression after being caught makes everyone feel familiar all of a sudden.

"I haven't seen you for a few days, and Conan has grown so tall all of a sudden." Genta was shocked. Conan now looked two heads taller than him.

"I feel like in a few days, Conan, you will grow to the height of Ran's shoulders," said Yuji Itadori.

Sugawara Megumi was also amazed. It was the first time he saw Shinichi since the ceremony that day. It seemed that the magic worked.

Conan showed his dead fish eyes: "Wait, are you guys just going to accept that I'm Kudo Shinichi?"

"Because Conan told us before, we thought you were joking, but it turned out to be true." Ayumi said.

"I also want to grow as tall as Conan in just a few days. That's great." Mitsuhiko said with envy.

"It's better for it to grow naturally. I'll wake up at night because of the pain and won't be able to sleep." Kudo Shinichi said with a smile.

Kudo Shinichi realized that these young students seemed to be well-accepting of this kind of thing because they had experienced many ups and downs.

"I have delicious cakes at home. Do you want to try them?" asked Kudo Shinichi.

"No need, Dr. Agasa just treated us to a meal." Genta shook his head.

Kudo Shinichi glanced at his wallet and said generously, "Then I'll treat you to dinner. You can eat whatever you want today."

"Sushi sushi! Special eel rice!" Yuantai's eyes lit up.

While waiting for the sushi takeout to arrive, Kudo Shinichi enjoyed the advantage of his height and put his hands in his pockets: "Is there anything else you want to ask?"

Sugawara Megumi glanced at the dusty books and said, "Brother Shinichi, you've been studying with us for so long. Can you still keep up with the high school?"

After sending all the children away, Mao Lilan found that her little boyfriend was busy reviewing his homework.

Mao Lilan also opened her book: "Shinichi, let's review together."

The sound of the ballpoint pen sliding across the paper was so pleasant. After a long time, Kudo Shinichi finally felt that he had turned back into a high school detective.

"According to your situation, you can take the final exam.

Shinichi, you've been on leave for such a long time. If your test results aren't satisfactory, your homeroom teacher said you won't be allowed to take leave to help solve cases in the future." Mao Lilan reminded.

Kudo Shinichi sighed and chose to bury his head in studying.

When Sugawara Megumi returned home, she found that her father was not in the living room at this time. The ingredients in the kitchen had been prepared, and the soup simmered over low heat was emitting a fragrant aroma.

Hearing the sound, Sugawara Kei walked out of the house and found his father tidying up in the small warehouse next door.

"Dad, what are you looking for?" Sugawara Megumi looked at the sports equipment on the ground with great curiosity.

“I don’t see why you’re interested in reasoning and solving crimes, and you only joined the Junior Detective Team because of Jiashi.

"With that awful Kudo Shinichi gone, the Junior Detective Team probably won't have as many cases to deal with in the future." Jiner said as he took out the last item.

"When I was a kid, your dad didn't have so many fun things, and I couldn't see such a big world." Shen'er said as he threw the basketball towards his son.

Looking at the ball falling from the sky, Sugawara Megumi caught the ball while muttering, "Don't play in the warehouse, it's dangerous."

"Dad, do you want to take me to play basketball?" asked Sugawara Megumi. Compared to basketball, these kids like playing football more.

Since the Sugawara family rarely watches various sports competitions on a daily basis, Jiner decided to show his son the charm of this kind of sports in person.

That night, when Sugawara Yoshiyo returned home, she saw a little sea urchin with a red face.

"When I grow up, I want to be a policeman and catch my dad and the dessert robber from last time." Little Sugawara Megumi said while chewing on a rabbit marshmallow.

This anger continued until Sugawara Megumi fell asleep, and the little boy in pajamas with little star patterns also looked angry in his dream.

"You made Xiaohui very angry." Sugawara Yoshiyo kissed her son's cheek.

This is a reserved activity for the Sugawara couple, watching their son sleep.

"I just want to show Ah Hui the charm of sports competition." Shen Er raised his eyebrows and said.

"But many, many years from now, when your son recalls this memory, he will only remember the unhappiness of being shamelessly crushed by his own father," Sugawara Yoshiyo replied.

Shen Er touched his chin, not feeling at all that his behavior was shameful as an adult.

"I remember that Ah Hui liked me very much when he was little. He followed me wherever I went and especially liked being lifted up by me." Shen'er looked puzzled.

Sugawara Yoshiyo poked at Shiro's thick skin: "Dear, try looking for the reasons in yourself sometimes."

The Xth Beika Town Sports Meet.

A fun and professional sports meet for all the people of Beika Town is about to begin, and Beika Town merchants have prepared generous prizes.

Suzuki Sonoko, who went to volunteer, successfully obtained sponsorship from the Suzuki Foundation, which made this sports meeting the hottest topic.

The extremely generous prize money and national popularity also attract professional athletes or amateur enthusiasts from all over the country.

The registration site was very lively, with teachers and students from Mika Hospital and Mika University School of Medicine providing physical examinations and logistical support for the participants.

The girl in a white coat and brown hair was young but very imposing, with a row of students following behind her.

"Mr. Miyano," the man in charge of the registration system said respectfully as he took out a stack of papers from the registration box. "These were selected based on the criteria you stated."

Mao Lilan, Kyogoku Makoto, Suguru Geto, Echizen Ryoma—the girl who was flipping through the registration list smiled.

She returned the registration form. All registration forms will be transmitted to the organizing committee via fax machine for information collection.

After arranging the personnel assignments, Miyano Shiho walked to the parking lot and opened the door of a van that was in a blind spot of surveillance.

Miyano Shiho opened her notebook and tapped lightly on the keyboard with her slender fingers.

I saw the scanner under the fax machine at the registration office light up and start working, and one picture after another appeared in front of me.

The registration forms that she found under the pretext of "looking for amateur contestants from all walks of life with amazing physical qualities who can arouse the audience's interest" appeared on the screen one after another.

I even signed up for all the highly professional projects, and when I signed up, I shocked the housewives who came to participate in the fun projects.

These stay-at-home mothers never expected that Mr. Sugawara, the man who usually made the most money in large purchases, would be so ambitious.

When little Sugawara Megumi learned this, his expression became strange. After holding it in for a whole day, he couldn't help but pull his mother's sleeve at night.

"What's wrong, Hui?" Sugawara Yoshiyo squatted down and looked at her son who was holding the piggy bank and seemed to be hesitant to speak.

"Dad, did he spend all this month's living expenses playing ping pong?" Sugawara Megumi slowly said, "Is Dad planning to use the prize money from the sports meet to fill this hole?"

Sugawara Yoshiyo was stunned for a moment, then laughed so hard that she lost her balance. She lovingly kissed her son, who was holding the piggy bank, and said, "Don't worry, I haven't been obsessed with playing marbles lately."

Sugawara Yoshiyo glanced at the man in the shadows behind them: "In fact, I'm ready to give up the small steel balls."

"Really?" Sugawara Megumi looked unconvinced.

"It's true." Sugawara Yoshiyo said affirmatively, because Shier had already tasted the blessing of taking Hui to play small steel balls: "So I'll give your father a chance. Don't become a policeman to arrest him in the future, okay?"

After making a difficult decision, little Sugawara Megumi nodded and left with a filial look on her face.
