That night, Katsuki Uehara had a dream, a beautiful dream - the content of the dream was so stimulating that he was reluctant to wake up, and was willing to fall into the gentle countryside called the Hero's Tomb.
So when he was woken up by the ringing of the phone, it was already 11:43 the next morning.
The sleepy eyes of Mimi Huhu were half-opened, almost squinting as he looked at the vibrating mobile phone placed on the bedside. Uehara Katsumi, who felt an unknown fire in his heart, reached out from the quilt and saw The moment the caller ID showed up, I pressed the answer button and started spraying——
"Ke, you disturbed your dreams so early in the morning, if you can't tell me one, two, three, four, five, then don't blame me for going to Maori's house to confuse things!"
"...First of all, my surname is not Ke, my surname is Edogawa - er, no, my surname is Edogawa now."
On the other end of the signal, Conan, who was standing on the school playground holding his mobile phone, said with a black line on his head: "Second, it's almost 12 o'clock at noon, and I have finished all my classes in the morning."
"I haven't gotten up yet, thank you."
"Did you suffer from kidney failure last night?"
"Please don't judge others by yourself."
"..."
Conan wanted to talk back, but considering that in terms of words, he seemed to be beaten by this guy after being dragged to the same level of quality and with rich relevant experience, he had to give up: "I have something serious to tell you. It's true." business."
"If it's about the Miyano sisters, then I advise you to give up."
Katsuki Uehara, who yawned, scratched his scalp and lazily got out of bed: "As a friendly reminder, if you want to return to your original appearance as soon as possible, that person's name is Miyano Shiho - oh, now it should be called Haibara Ai, she It’s very important, this woman is a real genius.”
"Even so, she can't really live in the doctor's house."
"She can live wherever she likes. Do you think I have ever forced her to live there?"
Entering the bathroom, Katsuki Uehara put his cell phone aside and turned on the speakerphone. While brushing his teeth, he said with a vague smile: "The suggestion to live in Dr. Agasa's house was made by her herself. In essence, it was just to test me. I just want to Just do as she wants."
"What if something happens to the doctor?"
"Miyano Shiho doesn't trust the police safe house. In her current eyes, you are the only one besides Miyano Akemi who deserves partial trust, because you two share the same problem.
“In this case, it’s normal to choose someone you’re related to as a shield because you seem to have a good relationship with me.
"In other words, she is using the life of an unrelated person to reach a balance with you and me that only exists on the scale."
Although Katsumi Uehara didn't think Haibara Ai would kill Dr. Agasa.
Suddenly being in an unfamiliar environment, it was not surprising that Haiyuan Ai would make this choice.
"Then can I apply for surveillance equipment from you? The kind that is only used by the police. I have discussed it with Dr. Ali. For the sake of safety, he also agreed."
"That's fine with me, but are you sure you can hide it from someone coming out of the winery?"
In the mirror, Katsuki Uehara, who had a mouth full of foam, gargled his mouth, flushed the water with his eyes closed, and then without raising his head, he reached out and took out a towel hanging on the side: "If you expect police surveillance equipment, why don't you ask Dr. Agasa to invent a portable surveillance system?" black technology."
This really wasn't his intention to hack the Metropolitan Police Department, it was just that his equipment capabilities were just that.
"..."
"Okay, I'll hang up if there's nothing wrong. I'm going out to wait for Miwako to have lunch. Relax, I swear with the police's intuition that Dr. Agasa will be fine. Although Miyano Shiho is from the winery, he has not yet So heartbroken."
"Eh? Wait a minute! Uehara——"
With a "du" sound, Conan hung up the phone before he could discuss it further.
Different from the original timeline, Conan, who has not experienced the death of Miyano Akemi and the murder of Professor Hirota of Nanyang University, is clearly wary of Ai Haibara's breaking cry.
Watching the two of them scheming with each other was a unique experience for Uehara Katsumi, just like watching a drama on the spot.
After briefly washing up, Katsuki Uehara went into the bedroom and changed his clothes. After checking the time, he turned the car keys, whistled and went out.
………………………………………………………………
"Miwako, let's go to the cafeteria together and talk to me about what happened between you and Uehara."
Metropolitan Police Department, elevator entrance.
The moment he saw his best friend, he immediately went up to put his arm around Miyamoto Yumi, who had a smirk on her face, straightened the police hat on her head, and whispered into her ear, causing Miwako Sato to blush slightly.
"What's there to talk about?"
"Why is it so difficult to talk? You were single when we talked before, and when we came back in the afternoon, you became Uehara's girlfriend. Do you know that this matter has gone viral within the Metropolitan Police Department?
"Especially from the first class, almost every young man loves and hates Uehara Katsumi."
Miyamoto Yumi, who was snickering, tightened her bestie's shoulders: "Tell me, how did you two break through the window paper and get together? Did my words have an effect? Did I indirectly take the bait? Matchmaker?"
"How else can we get together? It's just a matter of course." Miwako Sato said this with a guilty conscience visible to the naked eye.
Looking back now, she feels that the sentence she asked was somewhat impulsive and inappropriate.
But love is inherently impulsive and uncontrollable.
"Really?" Yumi Miyamoto was suspicious when she noticed something strange.
Miwako Sato, who pretended to be calm, nodded: "Really."
"Which of you confessed your love to whom?"
"he!"
In front of her best friends, even Miwako Sato would have a little bit of damn vanity. Moreover, technically speaking, although she took the initiative to break the news, it was indeed Katsumi Uehara who confessed first!
Miyamoto Yumi, who has always been on the front line, her eyes lit up: "How did you confess your love?"
"He - huh? No, why do you ask?"
After reacting, Miwako Sato felt strange and glanced sideways at her best friend. The latter smiled innocently, lowered her eyes and said, "Isn't this just curiosity? I feel really itchy if I don't hear this gossip."
"If you have the time, you might as well fall in love yourself."
"...Miwako, you have changed." After hearing this, Miyamoto Yumi's eyes suddenly turned sad, and her lamenting tone was as if God had changed her heart: "We have only been in love for one day and you no longer talk to me about everything -"
With a "pop", Miwako Sato pressed her hand on her best friend's head. After interrupting her self-pity, she narrowed her eyes slightly and looked at her and said: "You are weird, you don't usually have this attitude, who let me Are you here to ask these questions?”
"..."
Oops!
Exposed!
As soon as Miwako said this, both Miyamoto Yumi and the police officers pretending to be passing by all froze!
"Uh haha, what? Miwako, why do you ask that? Am I not normal?"
"There's something wrong with you. From the moment you hooked my shoulder, your eyes have been wandering from time to time, as if you were looking at someone to signal something. When I asked you back, your smile revealed a bit of guilt. You didn't dare to talk to me at all. I looked at each other.”
As Miyamoto Yumi felt guilty, Sato Miwako's eyes became sharper. Feeling troubled, Yumi decisively chose to change the subject: "I suddenly remembered that there are still a few tickets that have not been dealt with. I will go ahead with Kazuko Kazuko, and then we will have dinner together in the evening."
——? !
"Wait a minute Yumi!"
Miwako Sato, who had felt that the atmosphere in the entire first class was strange all morning, would never let go of this opportunity. She raised her feet and chased after her: "Explain it to me clearly!"
"I don't know anything!"
The police officers who wanted to come forward to save people looked at me and I looked at you, but in the end, no one dared to take a step forward——
"Katsumi Uehara came to the Metropolitan Police Department, and his pink car is in the parking lot!"
I don’t know who tipped off the news, and the news immediately swept through the entire Metropolitan Police Department like a whirlwind!
All young male police officers, no matter which department they belong to, as long as there is no urgent work at hand, even if they are eating, they put down their jobs and rush to the parking lot in groups, for fear that they will miss the day if they arrive late. Kill the dog man.
This even includes a large number of middle-aged veterans and female police officers who are watching the fun.
With the gun in hand, kill the scumbag!
In such a large police station, the meal that should have been bustling with people suddenly became empty, so much so that when Megure Toshiro Odagiri Toshiro and Matsumoto Kiyonaga walked into the cafeteria, they thought they were in the wrong place. .
"Strange, where are the people? The police have been sent out?"
Megure Thirteen looked at the rice bowl that was still rotating on a certain dining table strangely. The rice in it had not even taken a few bites: "Are there so many murders in Tokyo?"
"..."
In the parking lot, Katsuki Uehara, who had just parked his car, turned around, and a group of police colleagues lined up in a fan-shaped formation, reflected in his boy's eyes.
The huge parking lot cannot even accommodate the arrival of so many people.
"?"
The confused Uehara Katsuki slowly typed a question mark and asked tentatively: "What's wrong with you guys?"
"Uehara Katsumi, is your love affair with Miss Miwako true?!"
"I'm telling you that you are a coward and an ambitious kid. Last time you deliberately rode a bicycle to trick Miwako into riding on it, and you refused to admit it even after being photographed!"
"…………"
"…………"
Uehara Katsumi, who looked confused, understood that this was the escort of Miwako Sato who was looking for trouble.
Yesterday he escaped very quickly, wandering around the entrance of the Metropolitan Police Department and then running away, but today he was caught red-handed.
"I said, it's not against the law for an unmarried man and an unmarried woman to fall in love, right?"
After understanding this, Katsuki Uehara smiled contemptuously, raised his butt in a grand manner, and sat on the front of his evo elegantly: "What? Don't you accept it? If you don't accept it, let's challenge him."
"..."
"..."
"Damn! I'm talking about a one-on-one fight! Not a group fight! This is the Metropolitan Police Department! I'm warning you not to break the law - who are you to pull my belt!"
