Upon arriving at Base 4, Kudo Kazuma had a late-night snack at the cafeteria and went to sleep contentedly.

To his surprise, he woke up the next morning from the cold.

Why is Gin pulling off his blanket again? Sherry can't possibly defect now, can she?

Kudo Kazuma sniffed and realized there was no one else in the room.

The view outside the window was a blanket of white...

Snowing?

His mind went blank for a moment.

Yesterday was still the end of summer, and today it's snowing?

Does snow fall in Japan as early as August?

Or is there someone even more wronged than Dou E?

wrong……

The unlucky guy shrank in the last month or so. Didn't they also attend a Valentine's Day murder party in between?

Kazuma Kudo scratched his head, looking quite annoyed.

He was aware of the chaotic timeline in the Detective Conan world from his previous life.

The phrase "Gin the Great smashes the timeline with one blow" has become a meme.

Knowing this was one thing, but for the previous sixteen years he had lived a normal life, so when he suddenly encountered this absurd timeline, he didn't even realize it...

So, according to Detective Conan's timeline, what is today's date, Xiaoyue?

December 25th, Christmas Day.

Kazuma Kudo: "..."

[I have a question... Not to mention the huge time span from Valentine's Day to the end of August to Christmas, even my birthday is missed, so how do I calculate my age?]

Leaving aside his seemingly endless 18th birthday, what about his 17th birthday?

[You've crossed that threshold, but you haven't yet, so you're not 17 years old yet, Master.]

Kazuma Kudo: "..."

So he has to wait until the first theatrical version, when his unlucky brother celebrates his birthday, to be able to tag along?

Speechless, Kudo Kazuma gave up and stayed in his room, wrapped in his blankets, playing on his phone for most of the day until he received a call from Ran in the evening.

It turns out that the super rich heiress Sonoko Suzuki has recently taken a liking to a popular rock singer, Tatsuya Kimura, and has immediately used her wealth to book a private after-party for his concert. Right now, she's using Ran to invite him to attend as well.

Rich kids are really something else when it comes to idol worship.

"Okay, I'll drive to pick you and Conan up then."

The men Sonoko has her eye on, aside from Makoto Kyogoku and Kaito Kid, are almost all involved in murder cases; they're either victims or murderers. Going to see them is definitely worthwhile.

Ran smiled and said, "Conan will be coming too. I think that since you, Ichima, are Conan's older brother, you'll be able to spend more time with him. He'll definitely be very happy."

Whether Conan will be happy is unknown, but Edogawa Kazuma, as Edogawa Conan's older brother, is certainly quite happy.

It's hard to say what kind of twisted sense of humor his parents had, but they insisted on giving "Edogawa Kazuma" the identity of "Edogawa Fumiyo's eldest son, who went missing ten years ago and has now finally been found."

Then, naturally, "Edogawa Kazuma" became "Edogawa Conan's" older brother.

Although it has a morbid sense of humor.

But it's well-written.

Kazuma Kudo gave his parents a thumbs up.

Two days later, he drove to the Mouri Detective Agency to pick up Ran and Conan, and they went to the agreed-upon karaoke bar.

In a huge private room, besides the band's singers, some backstage staff members were also present at the celebration banquet.

There were quite a few people, but Kudo Kazuma didn't know any of them. He was just there to freeload and collect some spirit souls.

Every now and then someone would start singing a song, and Xiaolan and Yuanzi, when they were in the mood, would join in, choosing a song and singing it together.

After finishing a cup of hot water that he had specially requested, Kudo Kazuma, who was sitting next to Conan, commented, "You sang really well."

Especially compared to this elementary school student who's like a death god.

Conan frowned: "What's wrong with your voice?"

Kudo Kazuma glared at him: "It's perfectly normal to catch a cold or have a sore throat when you're around."

Conan huffed angrily, poured his little brother another cup of hot water, and shoved it into his hand: "Shut up!"

When the song ended, Kudo Kazuma applauded and praised him generously.

Kimura Tatsuya, who had been drinking nearby, also nodded in praise: "You sang well, much better than someone else."

As he spoke, he made no attempt to hide his glance at the band's manager.

The female manager sighed and said patiently, "Tatsuya, you've had too much to drink. You have a stand-up comedy show later, so drink less."

Tatsuya Kimura looked at the manager with disdain and said irritably, "Ugly woman, you're so long-winded! Get out of here!"

Kudo Kazuma glanced at the cool and beautiful female manager and couldn't help but marvel.

Everyone's calling her an "ugly woman," is Tatsuya Kimura being too demanding, or is he just drunk and out of his mind?

A square-faced man wearing sunglasses chimed in, "Tatsuya, Mari is our band manager. It's only right that she gives you a few words of advice, isn't it?"

Tatsuya Kimura slammed down his cup and immediately began to berate the square-faced drummer.

He must have drunk too much and lost his mind...

Kudo Kazuma watched as this drunken, popular singer went on to berate the manager, then the drummer, then the guitarist, and even the nightclub owner—who was supposedly a former bandmate of his…

Sonoko Suzuki's "crush" is quite handsome, but unfortunately he has a mouth; when he opens his mouth, he seems to want to insult everyone present.

This scene looks so familiar.

Was the Valentine's Day murder mystery party similar to this?

Kimura Tatsuya's approach is not exactly the same as Minagawa Katsuhiko's, but it is at least virtually identical.

This is definitely a pre-ordained death.

Kazuma Kudo found his throat was so sore that drinking hot water didn't help.

I'd drunk quite a bit of water, so I decided to go to the restroom and get away from the Grim Reaper next to me.

When he returned, the female manager named "Mari" was singing—and to be fair, she sang very well.

Conan was standing in front of Tatsuya Kimura, talking to him about something.

"Oh, you're back?" Perhaps it was because of her appearance, but Sonoko was quite familiar with Kudo Kazuma, pointing to the karaoke machine and asking, "Would you like to sing a song too?"

Kazuma Kudo shrugged: "My throat is sore, maybe another time."

Just then, Tatsuya Kimura asked Conan, "Little brother, why don't you sing a song too?"

Conan glanced at Kazuma Kudo, chuckled dryly, and said, "No need, right? I'm not very good at singing..."

Just as Manager Mari finished singing, the guitarist went up to sing. During the song change, the karaoke room was relatively quiet, and Conan's words were heard clearly by everyone.

Sonoko, who couldn't get Kudo Kazuma to sing, immediately said, "Hey kid, why don't you sing a song? It's not like you can't sing at all. We're just having fun. You're just a kid, so no one will say anything if you don't sing well."

Seeing Conan's hesitation, a mix of excitement and reluctance, Sonoko asked curiously, "Your brother isn't singing because his throat is sore, but your throat is fine. Are you just shy?"

You can say he's shy, but you can't say he's really his brother!

Conan immediately perked up and ran to the song selection counter to choose a song.

Kazuma Kudo couldn't help but give Sonoko Suzuki a thumbs up: "Excellent!"

Sonoko Suzuki thought that Kazuma Kudo was praising her for getting Conan to sing, and immediately smiled smugly: "No problem."

When the guitarist finished singing, Kazuma Kudo casually grabbed some tissues, rolled them into two small balls, and then slowly put them into his ears and turned on the recording function on his phone.

Finally, he gave Sonoko a slight smile.

Next, Sonoko will have to learn what "a piece of cake" really means...
