The case was solved quickly, and since there was a member of the organization outside, Shinichi lowered the brim of his hat, got into the car, and returned to Xiaolan.

Chu Ming yawned and dozed off leaning back in his chair. When he saw Shinichi coming back, he asked knowingly, "Why are you back? Did you solve the case so quickly?"

Shinichi was concerned about Xiaolan being by his side, so he didn't say it clearly, but just answered vaguely: "It is indeed solved. It is said that the murderer was caught on the spot when he was taking the murder weapon from the car. You also know that detective Chu Mingge, the Mr. Amuro we met before."

Chu Ming sat up straight and looked out of the car window. At this moment, Bourbon was talking to Officer Megure with a smile on his face, looking particularly harmless.

Calculating the time, Shinichi doesn't have much time left to transform. If he doesn't hurry back, he will probably be shouting in the car.

Chu Ming glanced at Hattori who was still enjoying the fun, got out of the car, poked him, and reminded him quietly: "It's time to go, Shinichi can't hold on that long."

Hattori came back to his senses and praised Chu Ming: "Okay, I'll go call him uncle. Let me tell you, that blond guy is quite capable. It is said that he is also a detective. He opened a detective agency in Tokyo..."

Hattori had never seen Bourbon, but had only heard of him from Conan. He didn't know that this seemingly gentle and polite young man was a member of the organization, so on the way back, he would talk to Conan and Kogoro Mouri from time to time about this detective he had met by chance, and his words were full of praise.

Shinichi seemed to want to say something but couldn't tell the truth in front of so many people. He could only shrink in the back seat in silence and frustration.

When they arrived at Mika, Xiaolan glanced at Shinichi beside her and suddenly suggested, "Dad, let's take a detour to Dr. Agasa's house to pick up Conan. He is still sick and I am worried."

"Ah?" Shinichi was stunned for a moment, and suddenly stuttered, "Uh, well, how about we go back first? I actually, actually have something to tell you..."

Xiaolan's face turned red instantly: "Do you want to tell me something? Um, I, this, uh..."

Maori Kogoro saw it clearly in the rearview mirror, and honked the horn hard to vent his anger, which scared the pedestrians in front of him, and then he said sinisterly: "You have something to say? What secret do you have to hide from others? Let's go pick up Conan first, and then sit down and have a good talk about what you want to say."

Seeing that his daughter was about to be kidnapped, Kogoro Mori's eyes seemed to be spewing flames, and his words were somewhat sarcastic.

Xiaolan looked at Shinichi a little embarrassedly, then said coquettishly: "Dad, what are you talking about..."

Shinichi didn't feel embarrassed, he just felt sweaty. If he went to pick up Conan, how could he conjure up another Conan for Xiaolan and the others to take back?

"Uh, um, uncle, why don't you take us to the airport first? We have booked tickets back to Osaka in advance..." Hattori spoke up to help Shinichi out, "Isn't Conan at the doctor's house? Don't worry too much."

"How about this, Uncle, you drop us off at the intersection ahead, and then you take Hattori and the others to the airport. The doctor's house is not far ahead, and you can come back to pick up Conan. I'll drive Xiaolan and the others back to the office." Chu Ming suggested.

After all, time can't be delayed any longer. Just now in the car, Chu Ming discovered that Shinichi seemed to be sweating more. The drug was probably taking effect. At this time, he could only send Mouri Kogoro away. After all, Xiaolan was much easier to fool.

Kogoro Mori looked at Shinichi angrily, threatened him with his eyes, but still adhered to the host's philosophy and planned to send Hattori and the others to the airport first, so he parked the car at the intersection and let Chu Ming and the others get off first.

After getting off the bus, Chu Ming waved to Shinichi and Xiaolan: "You haven't seen each other for so long, you must have a lot to talk about, right? Don't worry, you guys can chat slowly, I'll go first and go see Conan."

Xiaolan blushed, and Shinichi was afraid that she was still thinking about Conan, so he immediately grabbed her hand and said, "Xiaolan, I have a lot to say to you..."

Chu Ming quickly walked out of the intersection, climbed over the house at the end, went back from another road, and secretly hid at the entrance of the alley behind Xiaolan and the others to eavesdrop, and by the way, secretly turned on the system's shooting function.

Maybe it's a famous scene. I can take a picture of it and then ask Vermouth for some money.

"What do you want to tell me?" Xiaolan's voice was low, but there were stars in her eyes, as if she was expecting something.

Chu Ming, as an outsider, knows clearly that what Xiaolan really wants is for Shinichi to tell her the truth in person, rather than keeping it in the dark and colluding with others to deceive her.

But Shinichi couldn't see through it. He just thought that he didn't tell Xiaolan because he didn't want to make her worry and fall into a dangerous vortex. But he didn't think that even if he kept it a secret from Xiaolan and didn't let her know anything, she would still worry and would still waste her time in endless waiting.

And if the organization really found out something, who would care whether Xiaolan knew about it or not? Once they decided to get rid of her, they would definitely cut her off completely. How could they leave her alive based on whether she knew about it or not?

I can only say that Shinichi really doesn't understand the organization.

"Xiaolan, have you been okay during this period?" Shinichi hesitated for a long time and stammered out a word of concern.

"It's okay, Shinichi, if you encounter any problems, can you tell me? Although I can't help you with any advice, but at least, don't leave me alone here..." Xiaolan lowered her eyes, her eyes were red, and crystal tears were swirling in her eyes, as if they would fall at any time.

"I..." Looking at Xiaolan's tears, Shinichi felt his heart was broken. He felt that he was really a bastard and wanted to tell Xiaolan all the truth, but no, he couldn't do that. After all, it was related to that vicious organization, and he couldn't ignore Xiaolan's safety.

Shinichi stepped forward, his fingertips gently slid across Xiaolan's cheek, wiped away the tears on her face, and vaguely told her about his current situation: "Xiaolan, I'm tracking a very dangerous case. This case involves a wide range of issues, and may even be related to the police or high-level politicians. So I have been hiding in the dark to investigate. You and uncle must be careful. If there are any strangers around or people who deliberately approach you, or people who ask you about me, you must be careful."

Xiaolan raised her hand and held Shinichi's hand that was still on her cheek. Her eyes were soft, and then she slowly placed her head on Shinichi's shoulder. Their breathing intertwined: "Okay, Shinichi, you have to be careful too..."

Under the setting sun, two figures hugged each other tightly. The sunlight shone on them, stretching their shadows very long and intertwining them. Time seemed to stand still at this moment.
