"It's okay for Dad to go." Ran put down her chopsticks, looked at Heiji Hattori, and politely declined on Conan's behalf, "But Conan can't go."
"Huh?" Heiji Hattori suddenly stopped rubbing Conan's head.
"Conan is going on a field trip with his classmates tomorrow," Ran explained for Conan. "It's organized by the school, and it'll last for a day or two."
Conan, who was eating nearby, nodded. He had just swallowed the food in his mouth and was about to speak when Heiji Hattori interrupted him before he could say anything.
"What, a hiking trip?!" Hattori Heiji's expression was quite complicated upon hearing this.
On his face, Kwang-yu seemed to see: surprise, disbelief, disappointment, and even a little anger.
These are all things that Guangyou imagined.
Although it was all in his head, Guangyou enjoyed watching it.
Anyway, this has nothing to do with him, he can just stand by and watch the show.
Sipping juice and watching a show, all that's missing is some sunflower seeds.
"This kid's going on a field trip with his classmates?" Heiji Hattori turned to look at Conan, saying with a hint of disappointment, "We might just find clues about the serial arsonist!"
"How could we let this kid go hiking with his classmates?!"
Conan calmly ate his meal while watching Heiji Hattori.
He didn't want this to happen either!
You need to ask for leave in advance for hiking, and you must have a suitable reason, such as illness or some other special reason, before you can ask for leave.
In Xiaolan's words, going on a hike with classmates can enhance the relationship between classmates.
If you don't have a good reason, try not to ask for leave.
Conan had actually come up with a reason, but he just hadn't had a chance to say it yet.
The hike was scheduled to start in the afternoon, with the morning used to prepare or confirm what was needed for the hike, such as tents, food, and changes of clothes.
In other words, he needs to come up with a reason before leaving in the afternoon.
In fact, he had already thought of his reasons when Hattori Heiji agreed to come.
His original plan was:
Day 1: Wait at the office for Hattori Heiji and Kazuha to arrive at 1 PM. You can take a stroll around the area near the office in the afternoon, and have dinner at the office in the evening.
Day 2: They were supposed to go hiking, but Conan managed to skip it by asking to take Heiji Hattori to Tokyo.
Then he can take Hattori Heiji out for a meal, like the takoyaki he promised before, or something else.
I'll just do whatever I find interesting in the afternoon.
Day 3: As planned, we spent the day at the theme park.
...
But today, an incident occurred where "Kendo master Hattori Heiji was imprisoned in the attic by a middle-aged, plump auntie," and he searched for her outside all day.
I'm only having dinner now.
This caused him to completely forget to tell Xiaolan that he wanted to take leave.
He wouldn't have remembered it if Xiaolan hadn't brought it up.
He originally wanted to tell Ran about taking leave, but before he could say it, Heiji Hattori interrupted him.
Unexpectedly, he didn't rush to ask for leave, but Hattori Heiji was anxious and reacted even more strongly than him.
He originally wanted to explain, but now, seeing the fascinating expression on Hattori Heiji's face...
He suddenly thought, "Let's talk about it later."
Hmm... I'll explain to Hattori tomorrow.
I'll admire it for a while longer.
However, after dinner, he needs to tell Xiaolan about taking leave.
Looking at Heiji Hattori's expression, Conan felt that the food in his mouth tasted much better.
Mmm, delicious...
"Is this kid really going on a hiking trip?" Hattori Heiji still couldn't believe it. Kudo Shinichi, who usually gets involved in every case, had actually given up on solving it.
Did you choose to go hiking with your classmates?
Could it be that after taking that medicine, not only did my body shrink, but my mindset and thoughts also changed?
"How can we let this brat go on a field trip holding hands with his classmates?" Hattori Heiji looked at Conan, his expression still very complicated.
"What does it have to do with anything? Conan is still just a kid." Kazuha was a little puzzled. She didn't know why Hattori Heiji was reacting so strongly all of a sudden.
It's just a hike, isn't it?
"Heiji, when we were Conan's age, didn't our school organize field trips?" Kazuha couldn't help but smile as she recalled her own field trips with Heiji. "You were quite enthusiastic back then, weren't you?"
"This is different!" Hattori Heiji instinctively wanted to tell everyone that Kudo Shinichi had taken the drug and turned into Conan, but as soon as he finished speaking, he realized something was wrong and shut his mouth in time.
At the same time, he also felt waves of pain coming from his feet, which were placed under the table.
Without even a second thought, he knew that this was definitely the work of Kudo, who was sitting right next to him eating and pretending nothing had happened.
"What's different?" Kazuha was even more puzzled. She had no idea what was wrong with Heiji today, making him so easily startled.
"It's nothing." Hattori Heiji immediately composed himself, waved his hand hastily, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief; he had almost let it slip.
“Conan is still just a kid,” Kazuha said without pressing further. “It’s normal to go on a field trip with classmates.”
“This kid likes deduction, so I thought it would be better for him to come with me and his uncle to visit the client’s house than to go on a field trip with his classmates.” Hattori Heiji quickly came up with a reasonable reason. “This kid is quite smart, and he might even be able to help.”
