……

After chatting with Yoko Okino for a while, Qi Ming's side career as a singer was officially launched.

Actually, it's not that complicated. Qi Ming can create a song using his own props. All he needs is for the TV station to invest resources in promoting the song.

Qi Ming has already begun to fantasize about his songs becoming popular all over the country.

After the two left the restaurant and parted ways, it was already around 3 p.m.

"Ai should be out of school by now, I should go pick her up... huh?"

As Qi Ming was thinking this, he suddenly noticed three petite figures peeping at him from the side of the street.

It was Mitsuhiko, Ayumi, and the other two.

Even though school is over, it's still a bit far from here, isn't it?

Did you skip school?

Most importantly, why are they looking at themselves?

Qi Ming scratched his head and instantly teleported behind the three of them in his Sianwistan.

……

"Hey, where did Brother Qi Ming go?"

Ayumi, who was taking pictures with her phone, exclaimed in surprise as she watched Qi Ming suddenly disappear from the spot.

"I don't know, he was just standing there a moment ago!"

Mitsuhiko rubbed his eyes in disbelief.

The three whispered against the wall, completely unaware of Qi Ming standing behind them.

Just like Shinichi Kudo, completely oblivious.

"Hey!"

"Wow!"

Qi Ming suddenly spoke, and the three of them felt their hearts leap. They reflexively lunged forward and fell to the ground, and Ayumi's phone also fell to the ground.

Thankfully, we live in an era where everyone uses basic smartphones, and these phones are as hard as Kunlun glass, so they're perfectly fine after being hit like that.

"You little brats skipped class, didn't you? And what are you doing following me?"

Qi Ming looked at the three of them with amusement and asked, then picked up the phone that Ayumi had dropped.

He thought the three of them would look guilty, but to his surprise, they sat on the ground pointing at him with indignant expressions.

"Brother Qi Ming, you have let Haibara down!"

Mitsuhiko said with a very righteous tone.

"...What are you talking about? Why don't you say that I have let this city down?"

"Hmph, we've already found the evidence. Just look at your phone's photo album and you'll see!"

"WTF."

Qi Ming rolled his eyes at the three of them, but still opened the photo album on Ayumi's phone.

Ignoring the earlier photos, Qi Ming stared blankly at the latest ones.

Those photos are all my own.

This includes him carrying Koizumi Akako into the hotel, and his handshake goodbye with Okino Yoko outside the hotel just now...

"What are you doing?"

Qi Ming asked curiously.

Could it be that these kids have already realized they are the future kings of singing and are already preparing to dig up dirt on themselves to make money?

You have a good business sense.

"Hmph, Brother Qi Ming, you're such a womanizer! You clearly have a girlfriend, yet you're still seeing other girls outside!"

Ayumi stood with her hands on her hips, looking righteous, and said.

Qi Ming raised an eyebrow slightly.

girlfriend?

Where did he come from... Oh, I remember now, I think I used Shiho Miyano as a shield last time.

"Hey, how did you guys know? I remember only telling Ai Haibara about it?"

"It was Haibara who told us, and Haibara also saw you carrying the first aunt into the hotel, Qi Ming!"

Mitsuhiko continued.

"Although she left without saying anything, you could tell from the look in her eyes before she left that Haibara was very disappointed in Qi Ming!"

hiss~

Qi Ming felt a sudden tightness in his body, as if he had been caught in a secret affair.

Qi Ming knew he hadn't been having a secret rendezvous, but Ai Haibara might not believe him!

I hope my brother's private life isn't so disgraceful; I hope this kind of character explosion doesn't happen!

No, I have to have a serious talk with Ai Haibara. I'm a gentleman!

But seriously, did their school let out so early today?

It was only a little past 1 a.m. when I entered the hotel with Koizumi Akako.

Without much thought, Qi Ming used his favorability to teleport to Ai Haibara's side.

……

In fact, Teitan School does dismiss students around 3 p.m.

But why were they able to see Qi Ming carrying Koizumi Akako to the hotel around 1 a.m.?

This was all thanks to the Fear Bracelet that Qi Ming used on Conan.

……

Let's go back to when Qi Ming was sliding the blackboard.

Teitan School.

"Uhhhhh!"

Still gripped by fear, Conan's expression changed drastically upon hearing the piercing sound beside him. He frantically shouted as he took off his glasses and threw them away.

"Edogawa-kun, what's wrong?"

The teacher flinched, startled by Conan's sudden action.

"No, no!"

Conan, as if he had lost his mind, threw his textbooks and stationery, which he had laid out on his desk, around in all directions. He would slam the desk and then grab things from his friends' desks and throw them around.

Upon seeing this, the students panicked, got up, and fled the classroom, crowding at the doorway to peek at Conan.

Ai Haibara also sensed that Conan was acting strangely, so she followed the crowd and left.

Genta Mitsuhiko and Ayumi remained here.

"Conan, are you alright?"

Conan didn't respond, but his beast-like reaction was enough to give them a response.

"Students, please go out and hand them over to the teacher."

The teacher stopped the three of them and hurriedly told them to wait in the aisle, leaving only herself and Conan to confront each other in the classroom.

It's unclear whether the teaching profession inherently carries a terrifying aura, but when Conan saw that all his friends had left, leaving only the teacher and himself, he started moving chairs and smashing tables.

The teacher steadied himself and slowly walked towards Conan, his voice trembling as he said:

"Conan, if you have any complaints, you can tell the teacher. Don't damage public property."

Noticing the teacher approaching, Conan took a few steps back in alarm.

Conan felt as if he had kicked something with his heel. He looked down at the ground in a panic and realized that he had bumped into the water bottle that he had knocked over earlier.

"No, don't come over here!"

Conan shouted in a trembling voice, lowering his head to adjust his leg strength and enhance his shoes.

"Conan, don't hurt..."

The teacher tried his best to soothe Conan with a gentle tone, but before he could finish speaking, Conan had already kicked the water bottle away.

boom!

With a powerful shot, a huge bang and a shockwave made the teacher's ears ring, and he felt as if he had just escaped death.

He looked back, trembling. The water bottle that Conan had kicked was embedded in the blackboard wall, with a wisp of white smoke rising from the joint.

"..."

If you kick yourself with that water bottle, you'll probably end up with a lot of red and blue marks.

The teacher swallowed hard, slowly backed to the classroom door, and gently closed it.

"Students, quickly go and fetch the principal!"

……

After some time, the classroom door was reopened.

"Conan, are you alright?"

Ran Mouri looked at Conan huddled in the corner and slowly stepped forward, asking with some concern.

Conan shuddered and looked up to meet Ran Mouri's gaze.

"Xiao Lan, older sister..."
