Standing in front of the Kudo residence's gate, Kōyū asked Conan beside him:
"You said you suspect someone has been to your house?"
"Yes, and the possibility is very high."
After nodding, Conan said to Kousuke:
“I suspect that someone has been living in my house during this period of time.”
"Because my home is right next to the PhD's house."
“My house is the best place if someone wants to spy on me.”
Kōyū was aware of this as well.
There are basically no high-rise buildings in residential areas in Japan.
To monitor someone in a house.
The best option is to monitor the houses surrounding this one.
The Kudo residence and Professor Agasa's house were separated by only one wall.
In fact, one of the windows in Conan's house faces Professor Agasa's house directly.
"Then let's go in and take a look?"
After saying that, Guangyou pushed the gate open a crack so that he could walk in, and then went into the courtyard.
Conan followed closely behind.
Pushing open the door, I entered the foyer.
The two first checked the entryway and the shoe cabinet placed there.
As expected, they found nothing unusual in these places.
The entryway is the first place you see after entering a house.
If someone is indeed spying on this house, why isn't there any evidence of it being done?
That would be far too lame.
After checking the entryway and shoe cabinet, the two took off their shoes and went inside.
When Conan reached the stairs, he suddenly stopped.
Seeing this, Guangyou asked, puzzled:
"What's wrong?"
"Does that mean you've found a clue that someone has come in?"
"no."
After shaking his head in denial, Conan explained:
"I think I heard Xiaolan calling me, and she was calling me by my real name."
He looked around and said softly:
Am I overthinking it?
"Otherwise what?" Kōyū looked at Conan with a strange gaze.
He complained:
"Are you out of your mind?"
"Or perhaps you've recently learned about those people and the pressure has become too much."
"Or maybe he just really wanted to confess to Xiaolan."
“...”
"Anyway, you must be hallucinating."
"I didn't hear Xiaolan call you at all."
"Hey, don't talk nonsense."
After suppressing his awkward expression, Conan frowned slightly and muttered:
"That's really strange."
"I really felt like I heard Xiaolan calling my name."
"Shinichi, Shinichi..." they shouted.
Hearing him say that, Guangyou said a few words:
"Either you are experiencing auditory hallucinations for some reason."
"Either you and Xiaolan have developed a telepathic connection."
"If it's the former, I suggest you don't worry about those guys lately."
"You are probably under too much stress."
"If it's the latter, then congratulations."
"You can save a lot on phone bills."
"When you want to call Xiaolan, just use telepathy to 'send' a message to her."
"Hello..."
After giving Kōyū a speechless half-moon-shaped glance, Conan said:
"Even if you don't believe it, don't say such ridiculous things, okay?"
"I really felt like I heard Xiaolan calling me."
Not wanting to argue with Conan about the truth of the matter, Kōyū looked up at the second floor and said:
"Alright, let's put this aside for now and get down to business."
"Should we check the living room first, or the bedroom first?"
However, Conan, who had suggested inspecting the house, suddenly changed his mind.
He said:
"Let's go first."
“Okay.” Guangyou had no objections.
He just came over to lend a hand.
That way, I can help if anything happens.
Since Conan said so, he had no objection.
It's already dark outside, and he needs to prepare dinner.
The two then turned and left the Kudo residence.
After returning to Professor Agasa's house, Kōyū went straight to prepare dinner.
Conan, meanwhile, sat on the sofa chatting with Professor Agasa.
They did not remove the listening device.
Although the bug wasn't dismantled, apart from Mitsuyu, Conan and Professor Agasa did not deliberately conceal their identities despite having a bugging device.
After all, Vermouth already knows Conan's true identity.
Trying to hide it will only expose it.
There won't be any problems as long as you avoid discussing confidential plans during conversations.
Although Conan gave up on today's inspection, it wasn't because he thought no one had ever gone in.
I just feel that even if we get checked, we probably won't find anything.
I was thinking that I should go again next time.
He asked Dr. Agasa:
"Doctor, have you seen anyone come to my house recently?"
"To your house?"
After recalling for a moment, Professor Agasa shook his head:
"I didn't see it."
Then, he asked in a low voice:
"Could it be that the person who installed the bugging device is spying on us in your house?"
"Hmm, that's possible." Conan nodded.
He said:
"Actually, I'm not sure who the other person is either."
"It's also possible that Xiaolan came to my house."
“She would occasionally come to my house to help with cleaning on weekends.”
"I'll call her after I finish eating."
...
After dinner, Kōyū was about to ask Conan to help him wash the dishes.
He's preparing dinner, so it's not unreasonable for Conan to help him wash the dishes, right?
After finding Conan on the second floor, Kōyū was about to speak when he swallowed back the words he was about to say.
