Conan: Life between Green Plum and Skyfall

"Dad, tell me the truth! Where did you hide the passbook Ms. Wendai gave you?!"

The next day, Xiaolan blocked Maori's door early in the morning, staring at her father's figure.

"Well, Xiaolan, this was given to me by Miss Wendai! Why are you asking this?"

Looking at Xiaolan who was standing in front of him with her hands on her hips, Maori's face showed a trace of panic.

"Didn't you tell me last time that I should keep an eye on you and not let you drink or smoke so carelessly? Don't you even listen to yourself?"

"Last time I was just helping you out, okay? I, it's not your turn yet..."

Just as Maori was about to say something, he saw Xiaolan clench her fists slowly:

"Dad, what do you want to say? What's not your turn?"

"No, it's nothing!"

Maori's throat moved slightly, and he waved his hands guiltily, his heart full of regret!

So, why did he let Xiaolan learn karate when he had nothing better to do? Why did he always feel that he was becoming less and less respectable as a father?

"So, where's the passbook?"

Facing Xiaolan's threatening gaze, Maori swallowed his saliva:

"Well, the passbook...how about we go directly to the bank and transfer the money to the passbook you have?"

"Is that so? That's okay."

Hearing this, Xiaolan thought for a moment and nodded in satisfaction. Her clenched fists loosened at some point.

"In that case, I'll go with Dad. Conan, come too!"

"Should I go too?"

Conan, who was sitting on the side eating melon, saw this and pointed at himself with a puzzled look. It's just saving money, why did he go there?

"No, Conan has to keep up too!"

Xiaolan said seriously:

"After all, this money is the living expenses that Miss Fumiyo gave you! So, Conan, you must watch where this money ends up~"

"Is that so? All right then!"

Seeing that Xiaolan said so, Conan didn't know how to refute it. He nodded and followed.

"Remember to change your clothes. I bought you so many clothes, why do you always like to wear the same one?"

"okay, I get it!"

Conan agreed with a sullen face. Damn mom, not only did she team up with Ran to change his clothes, but she even took a picture of him as a souvenir? And she even gave the picture to Ran in the end?

Damn it! He'll remember this grudge! He'll definitely find a way to erase this dark history!

While Conan kept saying bad things about his mother in his heart, he went to his small room, changed into casual clothes, and then followed the two of them towards the bank.

"Shiling Bank, Beihua Branch?"

Looking at this familiar yet unfamiliar name, Conan's heart tightened. The name of Shiling Bank might not be anything special if it were in the comics, but if it were in the anime, this bank would have a big problem!

"Shouldn't it be? If I remember correctly, from the anime, I should have gotten the solar skateboard made by the doctor by now! Today, it shouldn't be such a coincidence..."

Although he thought so, Conan has learned his lesson since the last incident at the department store.

What's the wrong time? What props are missing? None of this is the key to the matter, okay?

The right person, appearing in the right place, must mean the occurrence of a suitable case. No, sometimes, even the place and the person may not match.

"Miyano Akemi, come on, in the anime, I was late twice in a row, but this time, I will definitely save you from those guys!"

Thinking of this, Conan felt his heartbeat begin to accelerate and his expression became tense.

"Call, call! Facing those bastards in the organization, getting people to help is the most important thing!"

Thinking of this, Conan said hello to Xiaolan and Uncle Maori, found a corner, and made a few phone calls.

"Hello? Doctor, yes, have you made any progress on the research I asked you to do for me?

It's ready, but you're not sure how it works? No problem! As long as it works, it's fine! Okay, I got it! If it's all right, I'll pick it up from you today.

Why do you think I need this? Don't worry, I'm definitely using it to save people. Okay, thank you, Doctor! I'll give you a big gift later!

What gift are you talking about? Of course...it's a secret for now!"

"Hey, Dad? Have you finished the task I asked you to help me with? You said it wouldn't be that fast?

No way, no way, as the world's number one mystery novelist and a guest of honor of various national security agencies, you can't be unable to handle such a thing!

You said I didn't need to provoke you? When did I ever provoke you? Wasn't what I said the truth?

You say I'm giving you a hard time? No way! If it were someone else, it might be a hard time, but for you, Dad, isn't this just a simple matter of sprinkling water? It's a piece of cake!

You said you can do it tonight? Okay, please, Dad, I love you~"

"Chengshi, how are things going over there? Is the practice going well? Are you feeling okay? That's good! In that case, I'll leave the rest of the matter to you! Although I may not be able to use it, but with things like this, no one can predict.

Plans are never as fast as changes! If anything goes wrong, you'll really have to fight to the death!

Don't worry, it's just a possibility. The probability of a head-on confrontation is low, and I will do my best to avoid that situation.

When? It hasn't been confirmed yet, but if I remember correctly, it's probably in the next two days!

Don't worry, you're my partner, how could I let you die? Besides, we're legal, Red Team members! As Red Team members, as long as we don't do anything stupid, we won't die!

You're talking about that thing? Don't worry, I've already found someone to help me through legal channels! I won't let you commit a crime."

After making three consecutive calls, Conan breathed a sigh of relief. He had done his best to arrange everything!

If he was wrong, that would be the best, but if by chance he really met Miyano Akemi this time, he would do his best to save her from the inevitable death.

Just like saving Cheng Shi, he didn't want to see the tragedy in the original work happen again.

"I hope everything I do will work and save you! This time, I absolutely will not watch you die in front of me again!"

If the outcome after traveling through time is the same as if he hadn't traveled through time, then why did he travel through time?

Conan swore secretly in his heart.
