Chapter 657 Another new student transferred in.
Kawasaki Maru glanced at him, then looked at Conan and the others, "Let's go."
"Okay," Conan replied, picking up his schoolbag.
Zhenzhi blinked and followed behind.
They arrived at the apartment building, and a car happened to stop in front of them.
Kawasaki Maru first opened the door and let them into the car, then sat in the passenger seat herself, and then looked down at her phone and started operating something.
As for the driver, it was the same man who had helped stop the 'kidnapper' from escaping not long ago.
He adjusted the rearview mirror and looked at Kawasaki Machi behind him. "Little brother, I'm really sorry. I've been observing you from across the street lately, actually trying to protect you. I didn't expect you to misunderstand."
His words made Zhenzhi's eyes widen slightly. "Huh? Who's the kind person who would run so far to protect someone else?!"
The man coughed lightly, looking a little embarrassed. "Well, that's true, but your brother really did put me in that position to keep watch."
"Hmm? Why?" Machi asked, puzzled, and Conan was also a little curious.
"Of course it's because it's related to the people who kidnapped you, but it's too complicated to tell you kids."
The man spoke and focused on driving, ignoring the children's questions.
After dropping Ayumi and the other two off near their homes, he drove towards 5-chome.
Conan initially thought they were taking him directly back to the Mouri Detective Agency, but it turned out they picked him up along the way.
That familiar blue hair, who else could it be but Behrfinger!?
"Behrfinger?"
Their eyes all turned to the blue-haired youth getting into the car.
Behringer looked at Conan and the others with a surprised expression. "Why are you here?"
“It’s me.” Kawasaki Machi shrugged and told him everything that had happened yesterday and this morning.
"Ah, I see." Behringer suddenly realized. If she leaned out of the passenger seat and asked Kawasaki Maru, "Have you received any information?"
Upon hearing this, Kawasaki Maru shook her head. "No, they are indeed vigilant enough and have not revealed anything."
Behrfinger nodded meaningfully, "Indeed, they're not easy to deal with."
Seeing them talking in riddles, Conan and the others were completely baffled. "So what's going on?"
Behfinger turned to look at them, shrugged as if somewhat helpless, "Actually, it's because of Death. The organization that kidnapped Little Zhenzhi yesterday was actually a small-scale organization. They have a cooperative relationship with Death. Originally, we wanted to try to find out some clues about Death through them, but they were too vigilant. Even as a partner, they wouldn't reveal much."
"As for now, we have no choice but to wipe out that small organization in one fell swoop."
On the surface, he answered them seriously, but in his heart he thought: It's nothing, just a routine self-check.
The man, who was acting as the driver, seemed somewhat surprised. "You just said that to these kids?"
Bechfenger smiled mysteriously, "We can't tell them about the three children we sent back earlier, but these aren't ordinary children."
Because they are not children at all.
The man couldn't understand what he was saying, so he silently shut his mouth.
"I just didn't expect that you, Behringer, were involved in this too?" Conan looked at Behringer with a cool expression, his eyelids lowered.
Behringer chuckled, not feeling guilty at all, "I mainly wanted to help Maru."
Conan was a little puzzled and curious, but he didn't ask any further questions because he could vaguely guess that it was related to the truth. Even if he asked, they wouldn't be able to answer in front of the truth.
After seeing Conan and Ai Haibara off the bus, Behringer smiled and said goodbye, "Bye-bye! See you next time!"
Watching their car drive away, Ai Haibara glanced at Conan before turning and returning to Agasa's house.
However, they did not expect to see Qianzhu as soon as they entered the door.
Qianzhu blinked as she looked at the two of them who appeared with their schoolbags on their backs, and laughed, "Did you two go to some crime scene again?"
Conan chuckled a few times and brushed it off with a few words.
After all, discussing this could easily lead to the topic of death.
“Oh right, I remember Ran said that a new student transferred to their class.” Chizuru suddenly remembered this and looked at Conan to say to him, “And she seemed to have said that the transfer student looks a lot like that announcer named Rena Mizunashi.”
Conan's pupils contracted sharply. "What?"
"Xiaolan said that classmate admires Uncle Mori and plans to visit the agency after school today. Didn't Xiaolan tell you that?"
In the end, Chizuru seemed somewhat surprised, as if he hadn't expected Conan to not listen to what Ran Mouri had to say.
Conan: "..." Could he say he was asleep at that time?
"Then I'll head back now!"
He was about to leave in a hurry when Qianzhu called him back.
"Wait a minute, let me go with you."
"Huh? But..."
Conan turned around, somewhat hesitant.
"It's alright, because that classmate seems quite eager to meet me too." Chizuru said as she got up and left Agasa's house with him, heading towards the Mouri Detective Agency.
As they walked, Conan asked Chizuru some questions about the transfer student.
Qianzhu thought for a moment and said, "Xiaolan did tell me the other person's name. His name is Hondo Eisuke."
Conan kept his head down, deep in thought, but it was clear he was very nervous, after all, he had just experienced the incident where the old man was almost assassinated.
When they arrived at the Mouri Detective Agency, Ran Mouri and Sonoko Suzuki had just returned downstairs.
"Qianzhu! It's really kind of you to make this trip." A hint of apology flashed in Ran Mouri's eyes.
"It's alright, consider it a walk." Qianzhu smiled gently.
Ran Mouri smiled slightly at him, then looked at Conan beside him with a somewhat serious expression, "And Conan, why are you only coming back now?"
Conan scratched his head and chuckled dryly, "That's because Professor Agasa's new game is really interesting..."
"You little brat, you're way too addicted to games! This won't do," Sonoko Suzuki scolded him with her half-moon eyes, then bent down and patted his head.
Conan's lips twitched slightly. He glanced behind them, but didn't see anyone else. "Didn't you say someone would be coming to visit?"
"Ah, you heard from Qianzhu, right? He said he needed to go back and change his clothes before coming over," Ran Mouri replied as she went up the stairs.
