Chapter 3518-3530 [FBI Intelligence Broadcast]
Four high school classmates who were passing by chatted and laughed as they left the teaching building and went to their respective club activity rooms.
The other three high school students who came to investigate the paranormal event also changed their shoes and entered the school building.
Conan followed Jiang Xia for a few steps, then couldn't help but turn around and look at the backs of the four classmates.
After a moment, he sighed deeply: If it weren't for the despicable organization, if it weren't for the evil Gin, he would still be Shinichi Kudo, living a normal and happy high school life with his childhood friends in this school.
And now...
His current life isn't exactly unhappy, but compared to Conan, who could be silenced by the Black Organization at any moment and has to carefully hide his identity, he still prefers his past self as "Shinichi Kudo".
"If only we could have caught Vermouth the night before last. Come to think of it, she was supposed to be 'Dr. Araide' the whole time, but at the last minute, she suddenly switched to 'Judy'... If only I had checked again then, but who could have foreseen this?"
Conan theoretically felt there was no way to catch her, but in reality, he felt a sense of resentment: "We were just one step away from catching her with the FBI, but now... that Thousand-Faced Witch has definitely given up her identity as 'Dr. Araide' and is lurking around with a new face. It's impossible to catch her now...?!"
Just then, someone walked towards me down the corridor.
Conan casually looked up and saw that gentle face. He was stunned, as if struck by lightning.
"Dr. Shinichi?" Ran Mouri and Sonoko Suzuki didn't notice anything unusual about the child beside them. They greeted Dr. Shinichi and asked with some surprise, "Weren't you busy with the court hearing these past few days? Why are you at school so early?"
Dr. Shinichi smiled and said, "I'm almost done with my work. I wanted to come and check on the school first."
His gaze swept over the four people present, finally settling on Conan. He walked over, squatted down in front of the child, and began to examine him with undisguised curiosity.
As he was watching, the first-grade student opposite him, whose face looked unpleasant, suddenly reached out and pinched his face.
Dr. Shinichi: "Hiss!!"
Conan seemed even more shocked than him: he couldn't feel the disguise in his fingertips. This new doctor... was actually the real deal!
"Conan!" Ran Mouri was completely taken aback; Conan, who was usually very sensible, would suddenly do something like this.
She was about to step forward to punish him, but heard the new doctor mumble, "It's nothing, it's nothing."
As she spoke, the good-natured school doctor pulled Conan's hand down and whispered, "You were indeed there that night."
Conan's alarm bells rang: "Could you be...? Could you be Dr. Araide from that night of the full moon, Vermouth's accomplice?!"
The idea flashed through his mind, but was quickly dismissed.
wrong.
Over the past two days, he has been relentlessly pestering Ai Haibara, going from Professor Agasa's house to the school, and finally managed to get some information out of her.
—Ms. Judy was imprisoned in a nearby factory by Vermouth, while Dr. Araide was under FBI protection.
...So, what Dr. Shinichi knows now is something he heard from the FBI?
Countless speculations flashed through Conan's mind, and as it turned out, his deduction was indeed correct—the doctor in front of him lowered his voice and said to him, "That FBI agent named Judy told me a lot of things."
Conan: "Ms. Jodie?"
Dr. Shinichi nodded and continued whispering, "A while ago, she and her companion came to me and said that a thug was targeting our family."
"After reviewing some evidence, I had no choice but to agree to the protection plan offered by the FBI and fly to the United States with my grandmother and Ah Guang, intending to settle there."
"But after Ah Guang and his grandmother went there, they suffered from severe acclimatization problems and missed their hometown every day. So I have been negotiating with the FBI, hoping to change their place of residence and return to China."
"Just then, I heard some good news: the thug who had been targeting me had failed in his plan and escaped from here."
"So after discussing it with the FBI, I immediately set off back to take over the identity that was being stolen—if I don't get contacted by those guys after staying here for a while, then I'll go and bring my grandma and Ah Guang back too."
Conan nodded thoughtfully, then asked with some confusion, "Why are you telling me all this?"
Dr. Shinichi whispered, "Professor Judy said there was someone named... Xiu? I think that's the name. Anyway, the FBI thinks you were probably there that night."
"Since you know about this, I hope you can keep it a secret for me—if word gets out that someone else has stolen my identity, it will definitely cause panic."
Conan: "..." Why does Ms. Jodie tell everything to an ordinary citizen? Is the FBI so indifferent to intelligence? If I had known this, I would have just asked directly.
"Oh right, I heard from Ran that she's going to visit Ms. Jodie tomorrow with Jiang Xia and Sonoko." Conan secretly planned, "I might as well go along and see if I can get more information out of her."
beside.
Seeing Dr. Araide speaking in a low voice, Ran Mouri and Sonoko Suzuki were incredibly curious, but they still politely kept a distance and didn't eavesdrop.
Jiang Xia watched as this genuine, seemingly harmless teacher circled around him twice from a distance, feeling somewhat unaccustomed to it.
After Conan finished whispering with Dr. Araide, he belatedly realized that someone was wandering around nearby.
When they looked up and saw Jiang Xia, their hearts sank at the same time: Oh no, they were so busy talking... Could it be that this observant high school student has noticed that the "new doctor" in front of them has been replaced?
"Are you finished talking?" Fortunately, Ran Mouri interrupted the conversation. Remembering that Dr. Araide seemed to enjoy being with them, she invited him:
"By the way, why don't we have Dr. Araide come and help us investigate paranormal events? You're a teacher, so it'll be convenient for you to do anything."
"Huh?" The new doctor was taken aback, not expecting a student to make such a request of him.
He glanced at Ran Mouri, then at Sonoko Suzuki, and realized a beat later that "he" seemed to have a good relationship with these students.
In order to maintain the impression left by the previous "Dr. Araide", he had no choice but to accept Ran Mouri's invitation and reluctantly said, "Okay."
...
An innocent school doctor, who looked completely bewildered and was constantly worried that Jiang Xia would expose his identity, joined the ghost-hunting team.
Looking at the school doctor's seemingly calm exterior and barely concealed nervousness, Conan could only whisper a word of advice: "Just be yourself!"
