In the brightly lit city, countless people, after working tirelessly during the day, start their own lives in the dark of night.
After the case was solved, Xiaolan and Sonoko were allowed to live in Teacher Judy's house after reporting their safety to their families.
However, when the three of them arrived downstairs of Judy's luxurious apartment, they saw Conan holding the small cake he had bought and smiling at them.
"Eh? Conan-kun?" Ran was extremely surprised to see Conan in front of her: "Why are you here?"
"Oh~ cool kid~ are you here to see me off too?" Judy had a surprised expression and an exaggerated tone on the surface, but deep down she was instantly cheered up.
"Hehe, I heard from Uncle Maori that Teacher Judy was leaving, so I said I wanted to attend the farewell party too, so I asked Uncle Maori to send me here." Conan smiled at Judy and explained to the others.
Of course, things were not as easy as he said, and Kogoro Mori was naturally impatient at the beginning.
But how could Conan not know the other person's character?
After using suggestive words to remind Maori Kogoro that if this "burden" of his was not at home, then he could go out and have fun...
The other party happily acted as a tool and bought a few cakes on the way to Conan, saying it was a thank you to Teacher Xiaolan.
"Eh? Uncle can still do some good things occasionally." Sonoko chuckled and took the cake from Conan's hand, looked at it and said with a smile: "Ah, they are all our favorite flavors, kid, you are thoughtful."
As she said this, Sonoko rubbed Conan's head to show her appreciation.
"You underestimate my father. I'm afraid he's already hanging out with his cronies."
Xiaolan, who had long known her father's character, had already seen through Maori Kogoro's little thoughts. She sighed helplessly and smiled, saying, "Forget it, for the sake of the cake, I'll just let him go this time."
After the four of them got together, they chatted and laughed and took the elevator to the apartment where Judy lived.
"You guys sit down first, I'm going to the bathroom." After opening the door and getting slippers for the three of them, Judy greeted them and went straight to the bathroom.
Seeing this, Conan looked at the other person meaningfully, but on the surface he still cooperated with Xiaolan and Sonoko and put the things they bought on the table.
After Teacher Judy came out of the bathroom, everyone sat at the table, opened their drinks and filled their glasses, and clinked their glasses to start the farewell party.
Halfway through the meal, Conan used the excuse of going to the bathroom. When he checked the mirror, he found the photos hidden behind it. The content on the mirror was exactly the picture of him, Xiaolan and others together.
When Conan saw this scene, he couldn't help but think of what Tang Ze said again. He felt a chill in his heart, and at the same time, he felt depressed that someone was controlling him from behind.
There was no way. Everything Tang Ze had said before had come true. Although he was the executor at this moment, Tang Ze's shadow was everywhere.
However, no matter how depressed he was, Conan knew that his purpose of coming here today had been achieved. He was afraid that Judy would hide the clues and not leave any possibility for Xiaolan to become suspicious.
My original purpose was to be prepared for any eventuality, and now it seems that the purpose has been achieved.
At the same time, he couldn't help but feel fortunate that Tang Ze had considered it carefully. He understood Xiaolan and knew that with her personality, if she found Teacher Judy suspicious, she would definitely take action if she felt uneasy.
That would mean an accident, and it also meant that Xiaolan might be involved in their next confrontation with the Black Organization.
Even if there is just a slight possibility, that is something Conan doesn't want to see.
After carefully putting the mirror back and checking to make sure the photo wouldn't be accidentally exposed and seen by Xiaolan and the others who were going to the bathroom, Conan walked out of the bathroom with peace of mind.
"Ah, Conan, come here." As soon as Conan came out, he saw Xiaolan waving at him, "Which cake do you want to eat? Let you choose first~"
"Any one of them is fine with me~" Conan said obediently: "Sister Xiaolan, you guys choose first~"
"Hey, kid, don't be polite~" Sonoko joked, "Otherwise we'll really choose. Don't cry if you don't have what you want to eat~"
"No!" Conan rolled his eyes in annoyance: "You guys just choose first."
"Then I won't be polite." Yuanzi smiled and said, "I want strawberry~"
Sonoko started first, and the remaining Xiaolan and Ran also chose their own cakes. The group ate cakes and chatted in a harmonious atmosphere.
What is different from the original is that Judy, who should have been drunk, did not drink much and instead remained sober, perhaps because Conan's presence made her alert.
Afterwards, Xiaolan and Sonoko went to the bathroom respectively, but according to Conan's observation, there was nothing strange on Xiaolan's face when she came over.
Later, when facing Teacher Judy, Xiaolan did not feel any reluctance. The three of them happily began to make the bed and prepare to go to sleep.
And because the risk was eliminated, this night passed peacefully like countless ordinary nights.
.......
Everyone's world revolves around themselves.
Some people fall asleep peacefully, but at the same time of night, different people do different things.
Da...da...da...
Slender white fingers kept tapping on the keyboard. In the dark room, the words "Dear Edogawa Conan" gradually appeared on the screen, the only dim light source.
Wearing a sexy black lingerie, Vermouth, who didn't mind revealing her nude body at all, put the written letter into the envelope and lit the lighter.
The sealing wax seal quickly melted under the high temperature and was covered on the white envelope. Before the sealing wax solidified, an exquisite seal was quickly printed on it, leaving a pattern on it.
A seductive smile crossed her alluring red lips, as if she was looking forward to tomorrow.
......
In an unknown parking lot, a black Chevrolet C-1500 was parked quietly within the straight white line.
The man pressed the remote control, and the car lights kept flashing in the dim space.
The man with leather shoes stepped on the ground and wore a knitted hat, opened the car door and got into the driver's seat.
Squeak~
The match strikes the phosphorus layer, releasing heat and emitting a flame that lights the cigarette in your mouth.
The match held in his left hand burned quietly, illuminating the space inside the car.
In front of his carriage, a photo was quietly pasted on it, and the brief light highlighted the protagonist in the photo.
She was a girl with short hair and a cold expression. In the photo, she seemed to be turning her head to look in the direction of the photographer.
The man just watched quietly, then flicked a match, and the car fell into darkness again.
