Conan: Rice Flower Spring

Chapter 243 237. "Mom, someone slipped a note to Dad"

"I don't know, just like I don't know who invited your mother and me to this memorial service."

Kudo Yusaku forced a stern face and tried hard to take his gaze away from Conan.

"That's enough, Conan, we should go home."

"But."

Conan obviously didn't want to go home. First of all, he hadn't seen the murderer's body yet. Maybe he could find some clues after the body was pulled out.

Furthermore, he just heard someone say that two people were shot at the scene, and he learned from his father that the two people were FBI agents from America.

So many cases remain unsolved, so many clues remain unsolved, and so many murderers remain at large.

How could he just go home like this?
This is not detective at all! Nor is it the truth!!
"That's enough Conan, I say let's go home." Kudo Yusaku stared into Conan's eyes and said to him word by word.

"Okay, okay, I get it." Conan looked at his father in surprise.

To be honest, from childhood to adulthood, from Kudo Shinichi to Edogawa Conan, he has never seen his father angry.

Yusaku Kudo's emotions are so stable, as if there is no one or anything in the world that can stir up his emotions.

As a result, he saw it now, seeing his father's angry and annoyed look. Conan finally realized the seriousness of the situation.

He was very sure that this matter must be related to the note that Kudo Yusaku had just received. Unfortunately, Kudo Yusaku was not just a passerby, nor was he Officer Takagi of the Metropolitan Police Department.

Since Kudo Yusaku doesn't intend to say anything, it will be useless even if Conan asks him a lot.

They were all taught by the same master, so their moves cannot be broken. For Conan, the little skills he has were all taught by his father, Yusaku Kudo.

Not to mention surpassing his master, even Conan can't do it now even if he has mastered it - you know, being a detective is not about fighting and killing, being a detective is about the human relationships and worldly wisdom.

It’s a pity that Conan turned his worldly wisdom into an accident and turned himself into an elementary school student.

It's easier to get things done with acquaintances. After saying something to Inspector Megure, Kudo Yusaku took Kudo Yukiko and Conan and left the Haido City Hotel in a low-key manner and returned to the Kudo residence in Beika Town.

After returning home, Kudo Yusaku checked the house from top to bottom, inside and out.

After making sure that there were no eavesdropping devices in the house, Kudo Yusaku felt relieved and talked to Conan.

"How have you been lately, Shinichi?" On the sofa in the living room, Yusaku Kudo and Yukiko Kudo were sitting together, and Conan was sitting opposite them.

At this moment, Conan had a subtle feeling in his heart - where did this subtle feeling of being interrogated come from?
Conan twisted his body and replied to Kudo Yusaku: "It's okay?"

"It's pretty good, isn't it, Sleeping Kogoro? I've heard of this name even in Los Angeles."

Kudo Yusaku said with a smile, but these words didn't sound like good things.

Even if Conan had no emotional intelligence, he should have understood Kudo Yusaku's attitude by now. However, due to his own carelessness, he got himself into this state. At this moment, Conan could only try to change the subject:

"By the way, Dad, what did you write on the note you received at the hotel?"

"What note?" Kudo Yukiko's eyes suddenly became sharp. Even in this situation, her husband still wanted to receive a woman's note? At the cocktail party in America, Kudo Yukiko could regard Kudo Yusaku's behavior as a social event, but if he still messed around regardless of the season when he returned to Tokyo.
Yukiko Kudo felt that her untrained little fists had become hard.

Conan's question was indeed malicious, as he knew very well that the note from Kudo Yusaku was not given by some questionable woman.

Even the father and the other two were not sure whether the person who gave the note was a man or a woman.

But this does not prevent the sharp Conan from taking this opportunity to "frame" his father. This father and son, or this family, have long been accustomed to the practice of you cheating me and I cheating you, and it is engraved in their bones.

"A note was slipped into my pocket by someone I don't know when. But it's not what you think."

Kudo Yusaku calmed down and Kudo Yukiko continued, "There are two names written on it, one is Kudo Shinichi, and the other is Edogawa Conan."

"In other words, Shinichi, your identity has been discovered."

What does it mean when the names Kudo Shinichi and Edogawa Conan are linked together?
Is it just that Conan's identity was exposed? Obviously, it's more than that.

Who would associate Edogawa Conan with Kudo Shinichi? Who in their right mind would guess that an elementary school student and a high school student are the same person?

Only someone who knows some of Kudo Shinichi's secret experiences can do this. In other words, only someone who knows that Kudo Shinichi was knocked unconscious by Gin can know this.

Professor Agasa and Hattori Heiji are impossible, so the final answer only lies in the members of the organization.

But this analysis made the Kudo family even more overwhelmed.

The person who slipped the note to Conan was clearly reminding Kudo Yusaku of this matter, which means that in the act of slipping the note, this member of the organization had good intentions towards Conan.

The problem is coming.

Kudo Yusaku could understand if the members of the organization sent people to capture Conan after discovering his identity.

But instead of coming to catch Conan, this person reminded them that Conan's identity had been exposed.
Is there anyone in their family who has any connections with members of the organization?
"Anyway, Tokyo is definitely not safe anymore. Shinichi, do you want to go to America with us? If America is not safe either, we can still go to Europe.

It is impossible for that organization to have global influence.”

Kudo Yusaku knew very well that the criminal group that made Conan's cousin small could only cause trouble in certain countries and regions. But America and Europe were so big that they couldn't cover the sky with one hand.

If they could really do that, they wouldn't be a criminal group.

When Conan heard that Kudo Yusaku was going to take him away, he immediately said fiercely: "I won't leave! If I leave, do I really have to grow up from elementary school again?

They gave me medicine. Who knows if there will be any side effects?

I finally found some clues about them."

The clues that Conan finally found included but were not limited to the code names of gin, vodka, and tequila.
Then there was pretty much nothing else, but of course it was still a small gain after all.

Whether it's growing up from elementary school or the side effects of medicine, none of these are important to Conan.

The important thing is that Conan clearly knows that once he leaves the island country, he will probably never be able to contact his childhood sweetheart, Mouri Ran, again.
