The Detective Conan's Luck-Changer: Ran Begs for Mercy at the Start

Upon hearing this, Conan felt a chill in his heart. Only then did he hear faint screams coming from outside the door from Professor Agasa.

"But that old man is really stubborn. Even after being knocked unconscious several times, he still refused to reveal your identity."

"What a pity, we already knew that you were the Shinichi Kudo who faked his death!"

"Don't worry, your parents will be reunited with you soon."

As the man in black spoke, he continued to whip the victim forcefully.

"Ah—! I, I'm not Shinichi Kudo! You must have misunderstood!"

"I'm just a distant relative of the Kudo family, which is why I look a bit like Shinichi Kudo."

"I don't know who you are, and I can't see what you look like. Please let me go!"

Conan pleaded for mercy, worried that Professor Agasa wouldn't be able to withstand the torture, and even more worried that his parents would suffer the same fate.

The mysterious man sneered: "Pretending, still pretending!"

"You think finding a corpse and disguising it as Shinichi Kudo with a mask is a clever method?"

"We have already tested the body and found no blood relation whatsoever with Yusaku Kudo!"

"And you, Conan Edogawa, are related to Yusaku Kudo by blood, understand now?!"

Conan was now unable to refute this, and feeling that his death was imminent, he cried bitterly in sorrow.

While being whipped and crying,

Conan simultaneously felt his blood rushing to his head and his body stiffening.

Even in the midst of agonizing despair, a faint glimmer of pleasure was felt.

Is it the anticipation of being freed from the agony of 320?

Is he going to die?

Conan knows that when a person is near death, their body undergoes some unusual changes.

Within two minutes, Conan felt his body lighten, as if he were flying into the sky, and his body stiffness reached its peak.

Conan believes he is dead and has gone to heaven.

"Hey, why did you stop barking?"

The man in black frowned, his voice changing: "Did he faint from fright?"

Upon hearing that familiar voice, Conan snapped out of his reverie and immediately widened his eyes.

"Mom, is that you?!"

As the man in black removed his mask and unbuttoned his black coat, Yukiko Kudo's face was finally revealed.

Clearly, this was one of Yukiko Kudo's pranks.

"Mom, why did you do this?"

Why did you hit me like that?

Conan was on the verge of tears.

From childhood to adulthood, Conan has suffered countless pranks and tricks from Yukiko, leaving him with a deep-seated trauma.

Outsiders don't know, they think Yukiko is a celestial being descended to earth.

Only Conan understands that beneath that angelic exterior lies a master of mischief who sends chills down your spine.

"Why did I hit you? That's a good question."

"Of course, this is to rehearse potential scenarios in advance."

Yukiko Kudo spoke with righteous indignation.

"Mom, don't lie to me."

"Just tell me what I did wrong."

"Can't I change it?"

Conan, still hanging in mid-air, didn't think it was that simple.

Yukiko has never gone this far before.

Only Yukiko Kudo could make Conan reflect on his actions after being severely beaten.

"Conan, I think your clever little brain should remember."

"On the anniversary cruise ship tonight, you fired a tranquilizer dart at Kogoro Mouri."

They even thought he was an imposter, Kaito Kid.

Yukiko spoke with a smile.

"remember."

Conan nodded quickly, then waited for Yukiko to continue.

But Yukiko didn't continue speaking; instead, she lashed the air a few more times with her whip.

The sound of the whip cutting through the air sent chills down Conan's spine.

My mind raced, and suddenly a possibility came to mind.

"Could it be that……"

"That's right, that Kogoro Mouri was me in disguise!"

Conan looked completely innocent. "Mom, how can you blame me? You didn't tell me..."

Yukiko sneered: "Back then, you ambushed me with a tranquilizer dart and shouted that Kogoro Mouri was actually Kaito Kid in disguise."

"I've been given a tranquilizer dart. If I don't run, I'll be caught. Do I have a chance to explain?!"

"Besides, you've already attracted attention. When the police take off the mask, everyone will think I'm the Phantom Thief Kid!"

Yukiko was so angry!

She originally just wanted to join in the fun at Suzuki's anniversary celebration and maybe watch and tease Conan a little.

Unexpectedly, Conan mistook her for Kaito Kid.

Yukiko sensed something was wrong halfway there and was about to reveal her identity when Conan ambushed her with a tranquilizer dart.

Even if it was my fault.

"But Mom, you don't have to be so angry..."

Conan's momentum had completely weakened, and he pleaded, "Isn't it enough that I apologize to you?"

"Besides, you're not missing any limbs..."

Conan really couldn't understand why Yukiko was acting so drastically.

"If apologies were enough, what would we need the police for?"

Yukiko sneered repeatedly and then lashed Conan hard with a leather whip.

"what--!"

Conan was caught off guard by the sudden pain and let out a scream.

But for some reason, I still want to be beaten up again.

"Conan, answer honestly."

"Did you run into anyone while you were chasing me?"

Yukiko asked in a solemn voice.

"I indirectly encountered some police officers who conducted searches."

"And... Itake Karuta."

"However, by the time I saw Izuki Karuta, I had already lost him."

Conan answered while enduring the pain.

"Hehe, Conan, you can just stay hanging here."

"I'll put you down when I'm in a better mood."

After Yukiko finished speaking, she left the basement.

Professor Agasa's house, bathroom.

After venting her anger by whipping Conan, Yukiko came back to take a bath.

Professor Agasa's house already had a basement, and given his exceptional hands-on inventive abilities, it was easy for him to create a small, disguised basement.

"Yi Zhuxintian, it really was him..."

"I wonder what he did..."

Yukiko muttered to herself as she took a bath.

Of course, she didn't tell Conan everything.

Dr. Agasa's anesthetic needles are powerful, but their effects don't last long; they usually wear off gradually after about 20 minutes.
