Haibara Ai and Edogawa Conan left the Poirot Café. The bell hanging on the door rang. Edogawa Conan walked behind them and glanced sideways into the store.

It is not Poirot's peak time now, and there are not many guests here. Apart from the table of Mao Lilan, there are only two guests sitting in the corner and the Junior Detective Team who just came with him.

After scanning the area, Edogawa Conan turned around and looked at Huihara Ai's still ugly face. He took a step forward and lowered his voice and asked, "What's wrong with you?"

"There is someone from that organization in this store." Huiyuan Ai put on her hood to hide her facial features. "I don't know who it is, but there is someone."

Edogawa Conan was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and he quickly thought of many possibilities, such as that the organization had already discovered that he was Kudo Shinichi, so they sent people here to gather information.

But he quickly forced himself to calm down.

At least Xiaolan and the others must leave first!

Edogawa Conan turned around, but before he could step out, he was grabbed by Huihara Ai behind him. The girl was speechless, "If you go now, you will just alert the enemy. It is best for the two of us who are the source of danger to leave."

"No! How could I let them stay with such a dangerous guy?!" Edogawa Conan said without thinking, but before he could say anything else, he saw Haibara Ai's face suddenly became even uglier than before.

The boy realized something and turned his head to look behind him, and saw the blond man who was standing in front of the cooking table looking at him with a worried look on his face. When he turned his head, Amuro Toru smiled and said, "Conan, you can't do this to girls."

There was a dull pain in his wrist, and his bones were squeezed by the force of the circle. Edogawa seemed to be able to hear the friction sound and the sound of his heart beating violently.

No way.

The three of them were stuck in an inexplicable stalemate. Haibara Ai's fingers were trembling as she hid behind Edogawa Conan without saying a word. Edogawa Conan, who was in front, also realized that it was indeed strange for them to be like this, so he put on a smile and continued the conversation as usual.

"No, Amuro-nii." The boy took a step back to block the girl behind him, "We were just talking about games."

It was unclear whether Toru Amuro believed it or not. The smile on his face deepened, with a hint of coaxing a child. "Then come in when you're done talking. I made a cake. Let's try it together."

"With the kid behind you."

Miyano Akemi had heard her sister mention her "partner" in the laboratory. Judging from some details, he seemed to be a gentle and polite person, but she herself had never formally met that person.

Even after she decided to escape from the organization, it was Mr. Lesk who contacted her.

This was their first formal meeting.

Unexpectedly, the other person was young enough and good-looking. Maybe it was not appropriate to use the word "beautiful" for a man, but it did not seem so abrupt when applied to him.

Miyano Akemi suppressed her worries. She saw Lesk had made tea for them and whispered thank you.

Miyano Akemi almost looked a little embarrassed in front of the boy who seemed to be about the same age as her sister.

But she remained calm and composed, and soon got straight to the point and asked the question that concerned her most.

——The whereabouts of Miyano Shiho.

The boy was obviously not surprised by her question. He asked Lesk to bring his computer over. Then, in front of Miyano Akemi's puzzled look, Lesk pulled up a photo.

The photo shows a brown-haired girl walking on the street with a group of children. There is a hint of subtle vigilance between her eyebrows, like a small animal that is always alert to its surroundings.

"This is..." Miyano Akemi spoke in disbelief. She covered her lips slightly, and her beautiful eyes suddenly widened.

"Yes, although it is unbelievable, this is the fact." The young man still sat upright, and noticing Miyano Akemi's emotions, he calmly said a few words to comfort her.

“So next I hope you can go to this place.”

As soon as the boy finished speaking, Lesk, who was standing beside him, handed over a bunch of keys and a piece of paper with an address on it.

"You can do this, Ms. Hirota Masami."
