Conan wants to lie down but won't let him

"Then what should I do? Find the bug and destroy it?" Noriko Okatani was also a little scared. She had never encountered such a situation before.

When Noriko Okatani heard what Fujiwara Hiroshi said, it was unlikely that Fujiwara Hiroshi was just making random guesses. Noriko Okatani had witnessed Fujiwara Hiroshi's strength all the way.

Since the afternoon in the cafe, I have been predicting Conan's every move, so the things he mentioned now must be correct.

Noriko Okatani thought she had gotten away with it, but she didn't expect that she was overthinking it, and she was still in Conan's sight.

However, after what happened this afternoon, she trusted Fujiwara Hiroshi even more, and since Fujiwara Hiroshi took the initiative to mention it, there must be a solution.

There is no need to think or use your brain, Fujiwara Hiroshi will handle everything. Now Noriko Okatani just wants to listen to the methods given by Fujiwara Hiroshi.

"You destroyed the bug so quickly and purposefully. Even a fool would know you discovered it. Just pretend it doesn't exist and keep eating and drinking.

Then after a week, pretend to find the bug while cleaning and mutter a few words to it.

Then throw the bug out as if it were some unknown piece of garbage. This would both scare the kid and put the matter to rest. After at least a week of observation, he would probably give up.

It is impossible for him to monitor and eavesdrop on you every day. He will not find anything useful. After a long time, the eavesdropping device will be removed, which basically means he has given up.

So if you have any problems, remember to send me a message, don’t call me. Delete the message directly after sending it. Once you have fooled Conan, you will be completely safe.

There are other problems facing you now. That is, after we come out now, when Conan returns to your house, he will find that you are not at home.

Then, based on his personality, he should take the initiative to come to your door tomorrow, wait for you to return, and then stop you to ask about your movements tonight."

Fujiwara Hiroshi not only made arrangements and explanations for the subsequent situation, but also pointed out what Noriko Okatani would have to face tomorrow.

"What!?" Noriko Okatani was mentally prepared to be under Conan's surveillance for the next week.

However, when she returns home tomorrow, Conan will ask her about her movements tonight. Okatani Noriko is still wondering how Conan knew she was not at home tonight...

"Wait, you're not home tonight!??? Doesn't that mean..."

When Noriko Okatani thought of this, she made her face red, and instantly turned her eyes into the same dotted shape as Ran's, while her head continued to emit heat around her.

Good guy, he was thinking about things over there and made himself confused, but this naturally did not escape Fujiwara Hiroshi's eyes.

After a little thought, Fujiwara Hiroshi roughly understood the situation. This Okatani Noriko is really interesting. Fujiwara Hiroshi smiled but said nothing.

At the same time, the already blushing Noriko Okatani secretly glanced at Fujiwara Hiroshi, and happened to meet Fujiwara Hiroshi's gaze.

At the same time, she happened to see Fujiwara Hiroshi smiling but not saying anything. Okatani Noriko became even more shy and buried her head in her chest, burying it even lower.

After several minutes, Noriko Okatani finally recovered and remembered that she had forgotten the important matter and was only blushing.

"By the way, Mr. Fujiwara, I understand what you said earlier, but I don't quite understand what you said about facing Conan's questioning tomorrow.

How did Conan know that I was out of town tonight and not at home?"

Noriko Okatani finally calmed down and started talking again, but when she mentioned that she would not be at home tonight, she was still a little shy and her voice became lower and lower.

Fortunately, Fujiwara Hiroshi has good hearing, and even if he can't hear, Fujiwara Hiroshi can roughly guess what the problem is with Noriko Okatani.

"This question is very simple and can be answered through my reasoning and analysis, but before that, I still need to correct you.

We're going to be honest with each other tonight, and you don't have to keep using honorifics with me. Let's be natural and say whatever comes to mind."

As Fujiwara Hiroshi spoke, he pointed out that Noriko Okatani did not need to use honorifics all the time. When he talked about being honest, he made Noriko Okatani blush.

It's strange to say, you said Noriko Okatani didn't understand, but whenever Fujiwara Hiroshi mentioned the date tonight, she always understood it immediately.

You say she knows a lot, yet her reaction is so shy. Fujiwara Hiroshi couldn't help but think of a line in a song: "The shy rose blooms quietly..."

"Let's get back to the point. It's very easy for Conan to deduce that you're not at home tonight. He just needs to go back to the Mori Detective Agency and say goodbye to Saeki.

Then he just needs to find a way to get back to your house. When he gets back, the first thing he will do is to activate the eavesdropping device to listen to your movements.

So guess what he'll hear?"

Fujiwara Hiroshi guided Noriko Okatani to think for herself.

"Hmm..." Okatani Noriko held her chin with her right index finger, thought for a while, and then said to Fujiwara Hiroshi, "Uh... I can't think of it. I'm not at home, so I really can't imagine what he could have heard."

"Hahaha..." Fujiwara Hiroshi also laughed, "You've already figured it out! And you even gave the answer."

"Given the answer?" Okatani Noriko hadn't come to her senses yet. "I didn't say anything. No, I said I couldn't hear anything."

"Yes, that's the answer!" Fujiwara Hiroshi confirmed. "Sometimes you don't have to hear anything. Not hearing anything is also an answer."

"I still don't quite understand... Am I stupid?" Noriko Okatani felt like she was about to fall apart. She could understand each word individually, so why couldn't she understand when they were put together?

"Okay, let me put it another way. Suppose you were at home right now, what would you be doing?"

Fujiwara Hiroshi changed his approach. He thought Noriko Okatani was too interesting, so he didn't tell her the answer directly, so that she could think of the result herself and feel a sense of accomplishment.

"Well, at this time, they should be preparing dinner. After dinner, they will do some simple washing, tidying up, and cleaning the room..."

As Noriko Okatani spoke, she finally understood.

"You mean, if I were in the room, there would be some sounds of daily life, but now that I'm not in the room, there are no sounds at all.

He can use this to conclude that I am not at home tonight, is that what you mean?"

Noriko Okatani looked expectant and wanted to know whether her analysis was correct.
