After successfully solving the murder case at the International Detective Symposium, Conan returned home laden with honor and experience. His return caused quite a stir, and his friends congratulated him.
Ran Mouri excitedly hugged Conan: "Conan, you're amazing! You're so great, even on the international stage!"
Kogoro Mouri patted Conan on the shoulder, his face full of pride: "Kid, you're a worthy successor to my skills, Kogoro Mouri!"
Lin Yu and Ai Haibara also praised Conan's performance.
In the days that followed, life seemed to return to its usual tranquility. Conan returned to school to continue his studies, and spent his free time playing with his friends.
However, beneath this calm surface lies an unusual undercurrent.
One day, on his way home from school, Conan suddenly sensed that someone was following him. He deliberately walked into a small alley and then quickly hid around a corner.
The follower entered the alley, looking around. Conan took a closer look and realized that the person's face was unfamiliar, but there was a hint of danger in their eyes.
"Why are you following me?" Conan suddenly appeared and asked.
The stalker was startled and turned to run, but Conan quickly caught up and blocked his way.
"Don't even think about leaving until you explain yourself!" Conan's gaze was firm.
The stalker hesitated for a moment before finally speaking: "Someone asked me to deliver a message to you."
Conan frowned: "What message?"
The stalker lowered his voice and said, "A mysterious organization is rising, and you are their target."
After saying that, the stalker broke free and escaped while Conan was thinking.
Conan was filled with doubts. After returning home, he told Kogoro Mouri and the others about it.
"Could it be another organization like the 'Shadow Alliance'?" Ran Mouri asked worriedly.
Lin Yu analyzed, "It's possible, but we can't be sure based on just a message; we need to investigate further."
Ai Haibara then reminded everyone to be careful.
To find out more about this mysterious organization, Conan and his friends begin gathering intelligence. They discover that strange things have been happening in the city recently: important data from some businesses has been stolen, and several key figures have disappeared.
"Could there be a connection between these things?" Conan pondered.
After in-depth investigation, they discovered that these incidents seemed to be linked to this mysterious organization.
“It seems they’re plotting a big conspiracy,” Kogoro Mouri said.
Just as they were diligently searching for clues, Conan received a mysterious letter. The letter invited him to meet at a secluded warehouse, claiming that it had something important to tell him.
“This could be a trap,” Ran Mouri said.
But Conan decided to risk going: "Perhaps this is our chance to find out the truth."
At the appointed time, Conan arrived at the warehouse. The warehouse was empty, filled with a musty, old atmosphere.
"Is anyone there?" Conan called out.
Suddenly, the lights came on, and a group of people appeared in front of him.
"Conan, you really came." The leader said.
Conan looked at them warily: "Who are you people?"
“We are the ‘Shadows of Darkness,’ and we’ve come specifically to find you,” the leader sneered.
"What do you want?" Conan asked.
"Because you always ruin our plans, we'll make you pay!"
After saying that, they launched an attack on Conan.
Conan skillfully dodged while looking for an opportunity to counterattack.
Just when he was in trouble, Kogoro Mouri and the others arrived in time.
"You bunch of guys, don't even think about hurting Conan!" Kogoro Mouri shouted.
A fierce battle ensued.
Ran Mouri's karate, Lin Yu's technological equipment, and Ai Haibara's wit all added to the strength of the battle.
Ultimately, they successfully repelled the members of "Shadow of Darkness".
"It seems we have a new enemy," Conan said.
“But we are not afraid of them!” Ran Mouri said firmly.
In the days that followed, Conan and his friends engaged in a thrilling battle against the "Shadow of Darkness"...
