Conan: No, why aren't you following the script?

As a detective, Conan Edogawa has seen his share of ups and downs. He had even witnessed a shooting scene in Hawaii.

Looking at the strange bouncing marks on the football, how could he not guess that it had been shot through?

However, even so, without concrete evidence, Conan shouldn't jump to conclusions...

So, after a thought flashed through his mind, he immediately ignored the astonished looks of the Junior Detective Club and prepared to jump directly off the stands to see if he could dig the bullet out of the clay field of the arena.

This will become crucial evidence for his report to Inspector Megure!

However, Conan had just gotten up and climbed over the fence, before his body even showed any signs of falling...

A large hand grabbed his clothes firmly, and then with a forceful movement, threw him back onto the seats in the stands.

Feeling the pain coming from his buttocks, Conan immediately clutched his bottom and let out a scream.

Upon closer inspection, he realized that the person who had grabbed him and thrown him back was none other than Kitagawa Isao, who had just bought them drinks.

Kitagawa Isao's face was ashen, sending chills down one's spine.

He took two steps forward and angrily rebuked Conan:

"What are you doing? Are you so engrossed in watching football that you want to jump onto the field and play yourself? Can't you be a little more mindful of safety?!"

"No, Kitagawa-nii, I actually..."

"Actually what?"

Before Conan could finish speaking, Kitagawa Isao immediately interrupted, "Don't you know how dangerous your actions were? I can understand getting excited while watching a game, but the way you leaned out and fell over the fence, do you expect me to give you a compliment?"

"No, I really..."

Hearing Kitagawa Isao's reprimand, Conan was on the verge of tears.

He clearly just wanted to go down and check the bullet marks, so when did he become a dangerous kid watching?

Isn't this a bit unfair to accuse someone?

Touching the pain in his buttocks, Conan wanted to say something in his defense, but Kitagawa Isao wouldn't let it go and scolded him so much that he couldn't even get a word in edgewise.

Conan Edogawa felt utterly hopeless after being scolded for an unknown amount of time. Only when he felt dizzy did Kitagawa Isao temporarily let him off the hook.

However, even so, Conan has now lost the opportunity to go down to the stands to dig out the bullet.

Like Conan Edogawa, who felt as if he had lost something in his life, he could only make an excuse to go to the toilet, and left the stands with his head hanging low and a silent expression.

……

Meanwhile, after temporarily sending Conan Edogawa away, Kitagawa Isao, whose plan had succeeded, revealed a strange smile.

Knowing full well how the plot would unfold, the reason he didn't refuse Conan's invitation to the ball game was so that he could have the opportunity to be there and find a way to change the course of the story.

Now, because he's always around Ai Haibara, the original conversation between the little girl and Conan hasn't unfolded, and his feigned concern is hindering Conan from discovering the bullet's possibility, greatly slowing down the other's deduction progress.

Of course, all of this was just a prelude.

Seeing the clock on the big screen indicating that the game was about to end, he made an excuse and quietly left the stands of the National Stadium.

He had already scouted out the huge arena when he bought the drinks, and now, walking on the marble-paved road, Kitagawa Isao was quite excited.

According to his initial plan, after obstructing Conan and Ai Haibara's conversation, he should have quickly subdued the mole within the Yomiuri TV station and ended this somewhat boring case.

but……

Thinking of the awkward and embarrassed expression on Conan Edogawa's face when he was scolded earlier, Kitagawa Isao gradually began to have other plans.

The little boy made this interesting expression on his face after just a few words of reprimand...

What would happen if he discovered the other party's 'dangerous behavior' again and stopped it?

This must be a very exciting thing, right?

A little boy who could have easily solved the case ended up being seen as a troublemaker by his own intervention...

It seems like there's a lot of potential...

Kitagawa Isao felt more and more excited and expectant as he thought about it.

Yes, if it's just about changing the plot, he feels he'll soon become a ruthless reward point harvesting machine.

But what if we could add some unique fun when changing the plot, like teasing Conan Edogawa a little? What kind of experience would that be?

With this in mind, Kitagawa Isao, feeling somewhat eager to try, immediately made up his mind and decisively began to make a series of modifications to his action plan.

Over the next few minutes, he scouted the location again and confirmed a shortcut to the photographer's location.

After confirming the route, he hurriedly returned to Ai Haibara's side. At this time, the little girl and the three little ones had arrived at the entrance of the National Stadium with Conan Edogawa.

Kitagawa Isao, seeing this, quickly followed.

Here, he finally met the portly Inspector Megure and his men, such as Inspector Sato and Inspector Takagi.

As in the original timeline, Inspector Megure, who received the report from director Kaneko, is now intensely discussing the case with his subordinates. Conan Edogawa stands aside, occasionally adding his own words by impersonating Kogoro Mouri, and successfully analyzing the number of criminals based on his perspective.

After a moment's thought, Inspector Megure decided to use a ransom to lure the criminals into a trap.

There was nothing they could do about it; they had too little intelligence, and it was clearly impossible to capture all the criminals in one fell swoop.

If that's the case, then we might as well capture a witness first and find out the specifics before making any further decisions.

It must be said that Inspector Megure's plan was highly feasible, and even Conan, who was listening nearby, nodded in agreement, clearly having no objections.

However, while the idea is wonderful, reality is always accompanied by unexpected events.

As the entrapment plan progressed, although Officer Sato successfully subdued the accomplice who came to withdraw the money, the mobile phone that was constantly on the phone still caused Inspector Megure's plan to fail.

Not only that, after realizing that she had been deceived by Nichiri TV, the other party demanded an exorbitant ransom of one billion yen, which made the director Kaneko feel a sense of resentment and doubt towards the Metropolitan Police Department.

At this moment, Kitagawa Isao, who had silently followed the entire way, understood...

The moment finally arrived when it was his turn to take the stage.
