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

Actually, Kazuha didn't really want to come to the snow mountain to ski.

Her skiing skills were only so-so to begin with, and she felt inexplicably uneasy before she even left the house.

With nothing to do during the holiday, and with Hattori Heiji inviting her repeatedly, Kazuha was half-dragged along to this place.

"Mr. Yizhu, why don't you take a look at my fortune? What do you think?"

Hattori Heiji asked with a grin.

"Mr. Heiji's luck is normal."

Izuki Karuta told him the truth.

Then, Hattori Heiji turned to Kazuha and said, "See, these things are a matter of belief; if you believe, they exist, if you don't, they don't."

"Kazuha, you're always so suspicious, that's why you feel unlucky."

"I don't believe in that kind of thing; luck is perfectly normal."

It must be said that Heiji Hattori is not only a natural at making friends, but his speaking skills are also much better than Conan's.

Kazuha's expression relaxed a bit.

But soon, both Ran and Sonoko couldn't help but offer their advice:

"Miss Kazuha, it's better to believe it's true than not to believe it's not!"

"Yes, and Mr. Yizhu's predictions are always very accurate!"

"You can buy peace of mind for just 100 million yen."

"If something unexpected happens, it will be too late."

"The villa we went to last night, that Mr. Hamano..."

Both Ran and Sonoko could tell that Kazuha still believed in him to some extent; she wasn't the kind of person who couldn't be persuaded.

The two best friends are kind-hearted, and they always instinctively want to help when they see someone in trouble.

Sonoko was worried that Kazuha might be having financial difficulties, and was even willing to lend him money to cover the expenses.

Heiji Hattori initially tried to change the subject.

As a result, he was met with disdainful looks from Ran and Sonoko, as if he were about to do something heinous.

Considering Ran Mouri's fighting prowess, Heiji Hattori had no choice but to keep quiet for the time being.

"Hey, Conan, why is your woman saying those things?"

"They look like members of some kind of cult."

"If Kazuha gets scammed, you'll be held responsible!"

Heiji Hattori pulled Conan aside, his face full of resentment.

Last time, when I went to Beika to challenge Kogoro Mouri, I gave Conan a folk remedy for a cold, which caused Conan to develop a high fever at the crime scene later.

Heiji Hattori had no choice but to take Conan to a room to rest for the time being, only to witness Conan revert to Shinichi Kudo.

After that, the two high school detectives, one big and one small, would occasionally call each other to chat.

"Xiao Lan was misled by Izuki Qing Tian's words."

"You'd better be careful in general and keep a close eye on your woman."

Conan looked helpless.

"I heard that the scenery here is beautiful and it's a good place for couples to come."

"I was planning to confess my feelings, but I wasn't very happy with Ye on the way."

“She’s been superstitious since she was little, and now she’s surrounded by people, how could I possibly persuade her?”

Hattori Heiji was also very helpless.

As expected, Kazuha was persuaded by Ran and Sonoko.

just,

"I'm sorry, but for some reason, I can't accept new business today."

Izuki Karita shook her head helplessly.

"If you trust me, stay by my side today."

"If anything unexpected happens, I will protect your safety."

"There will be no extra charges."

Izuki Karuta also coveted the murderous aura emanating from Kazuha.

But he had already used up all his absorption attempts for the day, and he was quite helpless.

"Should I let Kazuha follow you?"

"what do you mean?!"

Hattori Heiji couldn't hold back any longer and became somewhat annoyed.

"I know that sounds a bit harsh."

"But I won't force myself to be with Miss Ye."

"However, it would be best if Miss Kazuha did not go skiing today and returned to the hotel immediately."

Izuki Karita's tone was flat.

He could certainly tell that in Hattori Heiji's heart, he probably already regarded his childhood friend Kazuha as his girlfriend and his possession.

Just like how Shinichi Kudo, before he shrunk, viewed Ran Mouri.

Now that Izuki Karuta is a stranger, he immediately asked Kazuha to stay by his side. It's no wonder Hattori Heiji is jealous.

"Kazuha, let's go skiing over there!"

"Ignore this person!"

Seeing Itake Karuta's attitude, Hattori Heiji simply stopped paying attention to him.

Holding onto the ski gloves worn by Toyama and Kazuha, they walked away to the other side.

Conan wanted to go and check on the situation, but ultimately couldn't bear to leave Ran Mouri behind, so he stayed.

Conan was quickly relieved that he had stayed behind.

Because Conan finally heard Ran Mouri and Sonoko questioning Itake Karuta.

"Mr. Yizhu, tell me honestly, have you taken a fancy to Miss He Ye?"

"You actually let Kazuha follow you around!"

"Exactly, even if Miss Ye is beautiful, you can't use such methods, can you?"

Both Ran Mouri and Sonoko are deeply suspicious of Karuichi Itake's motives.

"Alright, alright, just take my intentions as those kinds of thoughts."

Izuki Karuta was too lazy to explain, nor was she angry.

After all, they didn't know that there was a limit to the number of times they could absorb evil energy.

Moreover, what I just said to Kazuha, coupled with Kazuha's beauty, could easily lead to misunderstandings.

The garden is fine.

It's mainly Ran Mouri who mentions it every now and then:

"Mr. Yizhu, you said that on purpose, didn't you?"

“Deliberately proposing conditions that Kazuha would find unacceptable.”

"When Miss He Ye encounters disaster, you should rush over in time to save her like a hero."

"How about winning over Miss Kazuha's heart!"

Ran Mouri kept muttering like a wronged woman.

It made Izuki Karuta feel like a heartless man, as if he had done something to wrong Ran Mouri.

The problem is that their relationship was purely transactional.

It's clear that Ran Mouri has fallen for him.

"Xiao Lan, let's go over there and say something."

"Sonoko, come over here too."

Izuki Karuta was helpless.

Seeing how much Ran Mouri cared and how good her service was, I could only explain a few more words.

As for Conan, he wouldn't believe me anyway, so I'm too lazy to listen to him.

"I didn't want to say it, but..."

Izuki Karuta glanced at Ran Mouri and continued, "In fact, the number of times I help people avert disaster each day is limited."

"I was at the foot of the mountain just now, and I secretly helped several people with emergency disaster relief. I've used up all my chances."
