Not far away, Conan stood beside the car with his hands in his pockets, his dead fish eyes behind his glasses staring intently at the two people conducting an unknown transaction in front of the gate, his heart filled with indignation.
I never expected that Inspector Megure would be this kind of person.
After mentally criticizing Inspector Megure, Conan knew he couldn't confront Hanyu Kusunoki directly right now, and Hattori Heiji had already left.
A direct confrontation is disadvantageous, and allowing the enemy to slaughter us is also unacceptable.
So, the two of them came up with a new plan last night.
However, he needed his mother's help.
Thinking this, Conan's gaze lingered on his mother's reddened eyes for a moment before he complained, "You guys are so slow! Don't tell me you've been doing yoga all night?"
Yukiko guiltily adjusted her collar—she was wearing a turtleneck sweater today to cover the marks on her neck: "O-Of course~ Is it not allowed?"
Conan narrowed his eyes suspiciously.

Conan believes he has seen the truth.
However, the great detective had no idea that Yukiko already knew her silly son very well. So on the way here, she deliberately opened a bottle of red wine, took a few sips, and just wanted Conan to smell the wine and mislead his judgment.
He was even criticized by a little girl for drinking and driving.
As for why she readily admitted that the hotel pillows were of poor quality and caused an allergic reaction, it's because she knows Conan too well.
Shinichi will only believe it if his simple-minded son discovers the "truth" himself.
He thought he was on the third floor and that he had seen through his mother's lie.
Actually, his mom was already on the fifth floor!
Everything is under my control!
