Judging from the looks of it, Kudo Yusaku and Kogoro, who were standing not far away, also had bright eyes. If it weren't for their seniority, they would have already come up and joined in.
Thinking that she had stolen a lot of business from many people this time, and that Akechi and the others should have spread the word, Toyama Yoruichi lowered her tail and looked quite humble.
"Um...it's nothing, my suit got dirty earlier, and Miss Xiaoqian asked someone to clean it for me. I just went to pick it up..."
"Miss Akane?" Amuro Tooru strode over, grabbed his shoulder, and looked him up and down.
"That young lady from the Lanze Group? You were alone with her?"
Having not slept all night, Toyama Yoruichi felt a bit sluggish and didn't immediately notice the police officer's suppressed tension.
Instead, looking at his face, which was almost as dark as Hattori Heiji's, a thought suddenly struck him.
"Oh? Right, I should introduce you to Miss Akane!"
"What are you saying!" Amuro Tooru was clearly only keeping his voice down because of the crowd in the venue, but his tone was almost a roar.
Yuanshan Yeyi took this as a sign of being embarrassed and angry.
"You've already heard, haven't you? Miss Xiaoqian's fiancé... or rather, one of the candidates for fiancé, is a criminal who planned a terrorist attack. She's very depressed right now."
"I think you're a good match for her. You're handsome, you have... a job, uh, you're a great cook, your educational background is decent, and..."
As he spoke, he raised his eyebrows in a provocative manner.
"You wouldn't mind marrying into a wealthy family, would you?"
It's not wise of him to do that. He's going to be the Minister of Criminal Investigation in the future, and he doesn't even know which political faction the Lanze family belongs to. It's going to be a real problem.
However, Officer Furuya can't stay undercover at the brewery forever.
Instead of coming back to arrest the Japanese communists, we should urge him to retire so he can become a rich young lady's son-in-law, indulging in pleasure and doing menial work.
Yoruichi Toyama squinted as she imagined future scenarios, when she was suddenly punched on the head.
"You idiot, wake up!"
Amuro Tooru shouted angrily, his expression half-serious and half-fake, as if something was hidden behind his eyes.
Although Yoruichi Toyama, who was dizzy and disoriented, didn't see it, Akechi, who was standing next to her, saw it clearly and casually pushed Yoruichi Toyama behind him.
"Alright, stop hitting him," the elite member of the gold watch group said gently, a rare occurrence for him, when facing the police officer who was usually disliked. "He hasn't slept all night. If you keep hitting the child, you'll make him stupid."
Amuro Tooru's eyes flickered, but looking at the people around him, he could only let out a muffled sigh.
"Ha, ha, I see through Zi-ge's just being psychologically unbalanced, right?" Conan, taking advantage of being a child, squeezed in to smooth things over.
"Toyama... Brother, and Hattori-nii, you two secretly went off to solve a case, keeping it from Uncle Kogoro and us. That's so unfair!"
"We're detectives too!"
In an effort to lighten the mood, high school detective Shinichi Kudo even puffed out his cheeks, looking rather sullen.
Yoruichi Toyama couldn't resist and reached out to ruffle the big head.
Yes, it still feels the same!
With the children joining in, everyone relaxed a bit.
"However, this time, Toyama is not participating in the investigation as a detective."
Glancing secretly at Amuro Tooru, Akechi explained to Conan with a smile.
"Because he was the one who reported the crime."
"As for Hakuba-kun and Hattori-kun..."
"I understand!" Conan, who had truly understood, felt a pang of jealousy and simply complained.
"Those two older brothers are also members of your police force."
"And isn't Toyama-nii an advisor to your Metropolitan Police Department?"
"What a despicable privileged class!"
"You all had a chance to experience the 'cocoon' game ahead of time, right?"
"Ordinary people like me and Touko can only watch enviously..."
Everyone just laughed off this childish complaint.
As enthusiastic as Hattori Heiji was, he immediately bent down and asked, "How about I give you my spot?"
Yoruichi Toyama paused for a moment, then looked at Tooru Amuro.
Aren't you going to log into the game?
I'm so used to doing everything with these people that I never really considered this situation.
Amuro Tooru, whose expression had already softened, shrugged casually.
"The person who was invited is Kogoro's master. It's already a great honor that he could bring me and Conan along."
"As for the spot to enter the game, there is only one for Xiaolan."
Hmm...
Yoruichi Toyama thought for a moment, then her eyes lit up.
"Then I'll give my spot to Conan."
"Huh?"
Conan, who was politely declining Heiji Hattori's overly enthusiastic invitation, turned to look at him with a somewhat bewildered expression.
What kind of operation is that?
I thought you were going to give the spot to Tou-ge?
Yoruichi Toyama chuckled and winked at Conan.
"Aren't you supposed to be in the game keeping an eye on your little Lan sister?"
"As for me..."
As he spoke, he walked over and casually patted Amuro Tooru on the shoulder.
"I still need to apologize to Amuro properly."
