That night, Shiraijiu returned to Dr. Agasa's place to sleep. By the way, he successfully aroused Dr. Agasa's interest in mini walkie-talkies with his words, and immediately expressed his intention to study it.
And that night, Dr. Ali received a call from Xiaolan asking if Conan and Xiaojiu were at his place. The doctor, who was obsessed with research, answered without thinking that Xiaojiu was there and Conan was not.
So the next day, when Xiaolan received a call from the Memu Police Department and found out about the ancient bungalow, she, together with the parents of the other three little kids, severely scolded their naughty children.
So when they came to school, the three children and Conan cast complicated glances at Shiraijiu.
Shiraijiu couldn't ignore this lingering gaze.
After forcibly looking out the window for a while, Shiraijiu finally turned his head and looked at the four children surrounding Conan, "What are you doing?"
Conan, who knew her best, immediately denounced: "Traitor!"
The impulsive Genta said +1, "That's right! Shirai-san, how could you leave us alone? This is simply betrayal!"
Although the calm and rational Mitsuhiko couldn't accept Shiraijiu abandoning them and running away halfway, his longing mood still prevailed, and his tone was very soft and tactful, and he even took the initiative to help her make excuses: "Shirai-kun, there was something urgent last night. Do you have to leave?"
Ayumi was also very angry at first, but when she saw Shiraijiu being besieged, she immediately sided with Shiraijiu, "Conan, Genta, don't talk about Xiaojiu like that, it's too much!"
Well, Shiraijiu just asked a question, and half of the four-person group rebelled.
Baijiu, who didn't want to argue with the children on such trivial matters, thought for a moment and made a small expression under the control of Shiraijiu. Shiraijiu, who was originally expressionless and had a strong aura (meaning among children), suddenly became He felt a little weak, and his tone was much softer than usual, "I'm sorry, I didn't feel very well last night... so..."
With her weak look and tone, coupled with Shiraijiu's always pale and bloodless face, the whole little girl seemed to be so fragile that she could break at the touch of a finger. Now Mitsuhiko and Genta immediately rebelled and surrounded Shiraijiu with Ayumi. Nervous concern around you.
"Are you okay, Shirai-san? Are you still feeling unwell now?"
"You can't do this. Do you want to go to the hospital first?"
"Xiaojiu, how do you feel now? If you feel uncomfortable, don't force yourself!"
Conan, who was sitting aside, immediately laughed.
This guy Shirai loves to fool people as always. If he hadn't seen this guy jump out from the second floor with his own eyes last night and run away alive and well, he would have almost believed this reason.
At this time, the school bell rang. After Shirai Jiuyi sent the children away, Conan asked Shirai in a low voice, "Hey, did you see anything last night?"
Well, Conan does need another set of words.
"Well, I saw the man in black with long hair last night." Bai Jingjiu planned to tell the truth, as always, 70% true and 30% false, not covering up the facts but distorting them.
"Eh?!" Conan was shocked and immediately stood up from his seat, "What did you say?!"
It's class time now. Conan's behavior attracted the attention of the whole class. Even the teacher was startled by him. He held the book and asked in confusion, "Um, Conan, do you have any questions?"
Conan froze, turned his head one after another, looked at his classmates and teacher, and finally realized that he had reacted too much, so he scratched the back of his head in embarrassment, laughed dryly, and replied in a childish voice, "Ah Haha, there’s nothing~I’m sorry~”
After saying that, he sat down and covered his face with the book.
Behind the book, Conan's expression was gritted.
Perhaps it was because Shiraijiu often used men in black to scare him, but now Conan felt that men in black were everywhere around him, and his fear became even deeper.
It was not that he had never thought that Shiro Jingjiu was lying to him, but in terms of the black organization, Shiro Jingjiu and his goals should be the same, and there was no reason for her to lie to him in this regard.
And thanks to Shirai, he now doesn't know anything about the black organization - at least, he still knows that they are an organization.
Well, this was the information she shared with him after she ran out to follow the woman in black during the previous death incident in Shiraijiu's apartment.
Having said that, isn't this guy Shirai a bit too reckless? Why do you chase after people from the black organization when you see them? Aren't you afraid of being discovered at all? Well, he must go and warn Shirai later!
Time soon came to the end of school, and just as Conan and Shirai were packing their schoolbags, Gentai Ayumi Mitsuhiko came over happily.
"Conan, Xiaojiu, I heard that there is a haunted house in Mihua Town!"
"Huh? There's a haunted house?!" After this experience, Conan no longer looked down upon this seemingly ridiculous news, and began to take it seriously - of course, not taking the ghosts in the haunted house seriously, but taking the cases behind the haunted house seriously. .
Conan is most interested in finding out the truth of the case from the true or false stories.
"Yes! Ayumi discovered it again!" Yuantai replied happily.
"This time it's Gong Teng's house in 2-chome!"
"Gong Teng..." Conan couldn't help but murmured, it seemed a bit familiar...
Over there, Ayumi began to tell stories vividly, "People nearby said that there was an evil book buried in the ground of that gloomy house, and the boy who lived alone in it was eaten by the devil, and now it has become a haunted house!" "
Ayumi's voice was not quiet, and she also meant to tell Shiraijiu, so Shiraijiu heard it clearly. After thinking about it for a while, she immediately understood. She narrowed her eyes when looking at Conan, with a faint smile in her eyes. meaning.
Conan, who is fascinated by the authorities, is still elusive.
There are books buried under the gloomy house...a boy who lives alone...Gong Teng in 2-chome...I always feel like there is something strange and indescribably familiar.
"Is that really called Gong Teng?" Conan asked Bumi.
"Well, that's right!" Bumi said enthusiastically, "It's the workman who works, the cane's master!"
Kudo!
Hearing his last name, Conan understood a little.
Difficult, could it be...
It turns out that I have already started to gather my friends to make a decision, "We will prepare in a while, and then the five of us will go exploring the haunted house together!"
The three children looked at Shirai Jiu with great interest.
Shiraiji looked at the stunned Conan meaningfully and nodded, "No problem, I'm free after school."
"oh!!"
"Hey, wait, wait...have you made a mistake?" Conan panicked and wanted to stop the three children who were walking away to make preparations. Shirai Ku feels gloating about his misfortune.
What a joke! That's his Kudo Shinichi's home!
