PS: I'm taking a day off at the beginning of January.

On the one hand, I am now at my elderly parents' home in the countryside, and my trip was delayed so I couldn't go home, making it inconvenient for me to write.

On the other hand, the subsequent plot needs to be thought about carefully and accumulated a little more.

I can’t just write and think about it now, it’s too much effort (covering my face and crying).

Dear readers, enjoy your vacation.

I'm hiding first (dog sneaky~)

Chapter 207:203 Have you returned to Neon?

"As for me, it's still the same as always. I'm busy working every day and don't even have time to rest."

There was a hint of complaint in her tone. Although she was an out-and-out workaholic, it didn't mean that Koko liked working.

"There's nothing we can do about that. Koko, you're an arms dealer."

She shook her head in amusement. Just as Shizuka Hiratsuka herself had said before, she would not say too much when it came to her friends' lives.

She just wanted to make friends and didn't expect to get anything from the other person.

Of course, if the other party needs her help, Shizuka Hiratsuka will definitely not be stingy.

"Why, calling me at this time?" It was rare for Koko to call her on her own initiative. Most of the time, because Koko was traveling around the world, she always habitually sent emails to Shizuka Hiratsuka to keep in touch.

So when Shizuka Hiratsuka received Koko's call, she already had some guesses.

"Hey, there's something I want to consult you about, Jing." As expected, after hearing such a straightforward question from Shizuka Hiratsuka, Koko on the other end of the phone responded with a smile.

"Hehe, if I hadn't taken the initiative to speak, would you have continued talking about other things for a long time?" Having completely seen through this woman, Koko, Shizuka Hiratsuka stood up and took a can of beer from the refrigerator.

"Tell me what it is."

"This... is a little difficult to say over the phone." Unlike her usual straightforwardness, even though Shizuka Hiratsuka had already expressed her willingness to help, Koko was still a little vague.

"By the way, Jing, is Miss Fengzi still recovering in Neon?"

"You're talking about her. She's still here, but she's been feeling better recently and has started traveling around Japan on her own." Before Koko could figure out what she was worried about, Shizuka Hiratsuka's attention was easily diverted by Koko.

"Is that so? Then I won't be in a hurry~" Her tone became slightly relaxed, and Koko didn't say anything about what she was going to do.

"We still have a business deal here, and we can squeeze out some vacation time after we finish it." Koko's tone became cheerful, as if she was thinking of something she was looking forward to.

"I'm planning to visit you in Neon soon. Are you welcome?"

"Welcome, of course you are welcome." With a look of surprise in her eyes, Shizuka Hiratsuka subconsciously sat up straight.

"When do you come? I can arrange a time."

"Well, it should be fast. After all, I still have to complete the transaction at hand." Koko tapped her chin lightly and looked at the documents on the table with some irritation.

"Okay then, I'm in Neon anyway. Just call me whenever you want to come over." Shizuka Hiratsuka understood the uncertainty of Koko's job very well and didn't force anything.

Just thinking about the identities of Koko and her group, Shizuka Hiratsuka became a little worried.

"But Koko, are you sure it's okay for you to come to Neon?"

"Don't worry, we will take care of that matter, Jing, you don't have to worry~" Hearing the worry in Shizuka Hiratsuka's words, Koko replied with a smile.

"Okay, I'll wait for your news." Knowing how busy Koko was, Shizuka Hiratsuka had no intention of chatting on the phone for a long time.

After a few more pleasantries, Shizuka Hiratsuka hung up the phone with Koko.

"Hello, Fujiko." After taking a sip of beer, Shizuka Hiratsuka reconnected the call with Fujiko.

"Hehe, you only remembered me after you've dealt with the matter? As expected, I'm just a spare tire in your heart, Jing baby, right?" A resentful voice came from the phone. Although she knew that Fujiko was pretending, Hiratsuka Shizuka couldn't completely ignore it.

There was no way, the act was too convincing. Just hearing the voice made Shizuka Hiratsuka feel guilty.

"Things always have priorities, right? Besides, I took the initiative to fight back against you, so don't be so petty." Shizuka Hiratsuka said timidly after giving a helpless comfort.

"Hmph, there's nothing I can do. I love you so much that I can't bear to say even the slightest word of blame to you. I really feel sorry for myself." The sighing voice lingered in Shizuka Hiratsuka's ears, making her laugh and cry.

"So, can I, who has already lost her love, know who it was that just made Jingbao abandon me?"

"It's not as exaggerated as you say." Shizuka Hiratsuka shook her head helplessly. She really had no way to deal with Fujiko.

"You know him too, it's K..."

"Ah, wait a minute, Sister Sachiko called me. I'll hang up first, Jing baby."

Shizuka Hiratsuka didn't have the chance to finish her words. She only heard Fujiko's sudden excited shout on the other end of the phone, and then there was only a busy tone on the line.

"...it's as if you didn't hang up on me." Scratching her head in anger and amusement, Shizuka Hiratsuka threw her phone onto the sofa beside her.

"Wait a minute, the one who can make Fujiko call Sachiko sister, can't it be my mom?" The beer in her hand paused at her lips, and Shizuka Hiratsuka's expression was a little subtle, as if she thought of something.

"Did the relationship become so close just in one afternoon?"

"Ding-ling-ling~" After blinking strangely, Shizuka Hiratsuka silently picked up her cell phone which was ringing again.

"Fujiko?"

"Jing darling, Sister Sachiko asked me to go shopping with her tomorrow. What kind of clothes do you think would be suitable for me to wear and what kind of bag should I take?"

"You can wear whatever you like. I'm going to bed. Bye!" Shizuka Hiratsuka hung up the phone with a headache and let out a long sigh.

Sure enough, it was right that I didn't soften my heart and go back to Chiba with Fujiko. Otherwise, I don't know what kind of trouble I would have suffered.

"But Fujiko is shopping with her mother, so there shouldn't be any problem." After hesitating for a while while sitting on the sofa, Shizuka Hiratsuka gave up the idea of ​​calling Haruno to ask her for help.

It was probably a kind of intuition, but Shizuka Hiratsuka always felt that if Haruno and Fujiko encountered this, it would be very troublesome.

Although they had met last time.

"Forget it, let's go to bed." Shizuka Hiratsuka stretched herself and stood up from the sofa, putting all these annoying things behind her.

Ignoring Fujiko's claim that she got along well with him and wanted to stay in Chiba for two more days, Shizuka Hiratsuka could be said to have spent a few days of peaceful and stable life again.

I get up every morning and do some simple morning exercises, then drive to work after having breakfast.

At noon, Shizuka Hiratsuka had lunch and chatted with Xiaolan, Yukino and others. She felt like she had become a lot younger.

After teaching the students in the karate club in the evening, Shizuka Hiratsuka went home leisurely and decided to go to the bar for a drink depending on her mood.

"Oh, as expected, ordinary days are good." Sitting at her desk, Shizuka Hiratsuka nodded with satisfaction.

"Dingling bell~"

"Hello, Sister Yukiko, why are you calling me? It's probably late at night in Lighthouse Country now, and I'm arguing with Brother Yusaku again..."

"Hey, you guys already know how to use neon? That fast?!"

Chapter 208: I have to teach him a lesson

Carrying two large bags full of food in her hands, Shizuka Hiratsuka used her leg to open the door that Dr. Agasa had not locked.

"Oh, everything is here. I thought about it and decided to have hotpot at home tonight. I have bought the ingredients and also have wine. Eating at home is much more comfortable than eating out later." Putting the bag in her hand on the circular bar in the center of Dr. Agasa's living room, Shizuka Hiratsuka twisted her neck.

"Nice to see you again, Xiaojing, I missed you so much~" Yukiko walked in front of Shizuka Hiratsuka with a smile and reached out to hug Shizuka Hiratsuka.

"Well, I missed you a lot too, but why did you suddenly decide to come back? Aren't you living well in the Lighthouse Country?" Shizuka Hiratsuka asked with a smile, also patting Yukiko's back gently.

"And you've been so secretive about coming back, and you didn't let me tell anyone. I was planning to invite Kogoro-san and Eri-san out for dinner as a welcome treat for you guys."

"Well, Xiaojing, I called you here this time because of something else." Looking at Shizuka Hiratsuka who was in high spirits and already thinking about the dinner party later, Dr. Agasa, who was sitting on the sofa, scratched his head and said in a subtle tone.

"Something else?" The joyful expression froze for a moment. After hearing Dr. Agasa's words, Shizuka Hiratsuka finally calmed down and realized that the atmosphere in the living room was not as relaxed as she had imagined.

"Did something happen? It made you, Yukiko-san, and Yusaku-san so serious." Pulling Yukiko to sit on the sofa, Shizuka Hiratsuka frowned.

"Is it about Shinichi? I remember that when you called me a few days ago, Sister Yukiko, it was because of that kid Shinichi." Shizuka Hiratsuka was not stupid. She had already guessed some things before getting the news from Yukiko and Kudo Yusaku.

"Could something really have happened to that brat Shinichi? I was wondering why Xiaolan told me that Shinichi even changed his cell phone number. We haven't contacted him for a long time." Shizuka Hiratsuka's expression became more and more serious, and her tone was a little low.

"Don't worry, Xiaojing. Although it is indeed Shinichi's business, we still know Shinichi's current whereabouts." Kudo Yusaku stretched out his hand to interrupt Hiratsuka Shizuka's words and spoke in a calm tone.

"Yes, Xiaojing, don't worry. Shinnosuke is fine now, otherwise we wouldn't be able to sit still, right?" Yukiko put her arm around Hiratsuka Shizuka and gently asked her to calm down.

"So it's all about that brat Shinichi." Seeing that Kudo Yusaku and Yukiko were so calm, Hiratsuka Shizuka also calmed down again.

"Yes, Dr. Agasa needs to talk to you about this matter. After Dr. Agasa finishes speaking, we can discuss it again."

Kudo Yusaku nodded slightly and looked at Dr. Agasa beside him.

"Ah, let me tell you." Dr. Agasa slowly exhaled and spoke with a somewhat hoarse tone.

"This story all started when Shinichi went to the amusement park. Oh, that's the day when Shizuka also went there."

. . .

"So, Conan is Shinichi now?" Looking at Dr. Agasa blankly, if it weren't for the serious expressions of Kudo Yusaku and Yukiko, and if it weren't for Hiratsuka Shizuka's intuition telling her that no one present was lying, Hiratsuka Shizuka would have suspected that the three people in front of her had joined forces to play a trick on her.

I met a strange black organization, and then ate something strange that made me shrink or something.

Even in the comics that Shizuka Hiratsuka reads, it’s not drawn like this!

"Yes, letting Shinichi live with Xiaolan temporarily was an idea we discussed together." He nodded with a smile. It was rare for someone to listen to him so patiently. Dr. Agasa was also a little excited.

"After all, if we want to grow bigger, we have to research the antidote, and to do that, we have to get that strange medicine."

"If we let Shinichi live in Ran's house, Brother Maori is a detective after all. Maybe he can find some clues in the cases he accepts and get clues about that organization. In this way, we will have a chance to get the medicine."

"You guys are so brave. You didn't even tell me about this kind of thing?" It would be a lie to say that he wasn't angry. He obviously cared about that brat Shinichi, but he had never heard of this matter at all.

"I was originally hesitant about whether to let Shinichi go to your place, Shizuka. After all, no matter how you look at it, it's safer with you, Shizuka." Dr. Agasa scratched his head awkwardly. Looking at the somewhat dissatisfied Shizuka Hiratsuka, he felt a little timid.

Although he knew that Shizuka Hiratsuka would never attack him no matter what, Dr. Agasa, who had once been Shizuka Hiratsuka's cheerleader and had witnessed Shizuka Hiratsuka participate in the National Undiscriminate Fighting Tournament, still trembled subconsciously when Shizuka Hiratsuka was angry.

"It's just that we all know that you, Xiaojing, are not interested in the case. Moreover, before we know more about the organization, we dare not tell anyone about this matter casually. After all, the more people know, the more surprises there will be."

"Look, didn't Yusaku and Yukiko just find out too?"

"Tsk, alright." Shizuka Hiratsuka was able to accept Dr. Agasa's explanation, but the depression and irritability in her heart did not subside so easily.

"I told you, even if it's just through osmosis or something, Conan shouldn't be that similar to Shinichi when he was a child. I actually suspected at the time that Conan might be Yusaku-san's illegitimate child."

"Xiao Jing..." His expression was a little helpless. Kudo Yusaku had never expected that this was the image of him in Hiratsuka Shizuka's mind.

"Ah, Yusaku-kun, I don't mean anything else. It's just that Yukiko-kun always calls me to complain about your suspected cheating, so I subconsciously thought that way." Shizuka Hiratsuka blinked awkwardly and then remembered that Yusaku Kudo was sitting next to her.

"Yukiko."

"Hmph." Yukiko didn't know whether she felt guilty or angry, but she ignored Kudo Yusaku's meaning and turned her head away.

"Thinking about it this way, Shinichi really doesn't know how to restrain himself. He's just a child, but he was so restless at the crime scene."

It was solved, all the doubts were solved. Shizuka Hiratsuka finally understood that the familiar feeling of Conan's actions was not because he was simply imitating Shinichi or something, but that this guy was Kudo Shinichi himself!

"So, what are you going to do?" Shaking her head helplessly, Shizuka Hiratsuka leaned back on the sofa.

"Before you came, Xiaojing, the three of us had a brief discussion." Pushing his glasses, Kudo Yusaku said in a deep voice.

"Anyway, we need to teach Shinichi a lesson first."

Chapter 209 The deception is over

"What's wrong? Why can't you call your parents and ask?"

Looking at Conan with his hands on his hips in dissatisfaction, Kogoro Mouri asked unhappily.

"You left your child at someone else's house and didn't have any contact with him?"

"This..." Holding the handle in his hand, Conan's expression was very embarrassed.

Yes, why didn’t I consider this issue when I discussed it with the doctor?

"I should have asked the doctor to use a voice changer to pretend to be my parents and call to ask about it." Shaking his head in frustration, Conan knew that the most important thing now was how to hide this from Kogoro in front of him and Ran who ran to the door.

He hasn't said hello to the doctor yet. If Kogoro really calls the doctor, then everything will be over.

"Uncle, my parents really..."

"Hey! Conan, your mother is here to pick you up!" The lie that had not yet been completely made up was choked back, and Conan's pupils trembled violently.
