Chapter 41: The Detective Who Turned Back
In order to behave more like Kudo Shinichi, Kaedehara also specially studied the memories that belonged to Kudo Shinichi.
The scene of meeting Xiaolan is basically a "reproduction" of the past, so Kaede Yuan only made a slight psychological hint to himself, mobilized the emotions in his memory, and successfully completed the task.
Xiaolan didn't notice any difference between him and the former Kudo Shinichi.
In fact, before drinking that cup of white dryness, Kaedehara didn't know if he would change back, and he didn't know if he would become his original self or Kudo Shinichi.
After all, his crossing was not normal.
But after the combination of air conditioning, fans, ice showers and white dry wine, the answer was revealed.
He crossed Kudo Shinichi completely.
The way he grew and even his DNA were exactly the same as when Kudo Shinichi was a child, so the result was as expected.
It's just that... There is always something else to expect.
Running out of Xiaolan's line of sight, Kaedehara didn't need to endure it anymore, and wanted to sneeze, but in the next moment, the sneeze was blocked back - his heart suddenly seemed to be tightly grasped by an invisible hand, and there was a sharp pain, and the bones in his body seemed to melt, and the whole person tried to curl up to relieve the pain.
He's going to be a kid again.
Forcing himself through the severe pain and putting his phone back in his pocket, Kaedehara hurried a few quick steps, turned a corner, and came to Dr. Asasa's car.
It was obviously not a place to drive to, but it was nothing compared to the other things they had done tonight.
At this moment, Dr. Asa was still near the square, ready to wait for Xiaolan to leave before packing up the lighting and turning off some of the facilities they had secretly opened.
Conan and Hattori Heiji were sitting in the car.
Hattori Heiji sat in the front seat, one hand on the back of the chair, leaning sideways, looking at Kudo Shinichi, who he had been thinking about for several days, with curious, shocked, and confused eyes.
His eyes were so round that he didn't even dare to blink, for fear of missing the key scene.
Conan's eyes were a little more complicated.
Although he has basically believed in the reality of his "split" for a long time, he still has some unrealistic expectations before meeting "Kudo Shinichi".
But reality shattered his illusions and told him that he was really cracked.
Under the gaze of these gazes, Kaedehara opened the car door, threw the bag at Conan, and then quickly took off his coat and threw it directly at Hattori Heiji.
Conan, who was smashed, subconsciously picked up the bag, and Hattori Heiji hurriedly took off the coat wrapped around his head.
Time was fleeting, but when the two of them looked at Kudo Shinichi again, all they saw was Sora Kaedehara, who looked like an elementary school student under a loose shirt.
"Ahh The sneeze finally came out, and Kaedehara felt a little better, but not much.
Conan handed over the blanket that had been prepared a long time ago, and his eyes revealed a question: "Why are you still awake?" β
He slept for three days.
Kaedehara didn't notice this look at all.
Now he is very uncomfortable, and his brain is groggy. Maybe because of his physical strength, he didn't fall asleep directly like Conan, but he still felt very uncomfortable.
After a pause, Kaedehara reached out from under the blanket, grabbed his own clothes that had been placed on the side in advance, and tried to change them under the cover of the blanket.
Conan pouted, not dwelling on it any longer, after all, he didn't know how to change back.
"It's not scientific."
Heiji Hattori broke the silence with a repressed sentence.
"When you rule out all the impossible, whatever is left, no matter how impossible it may seem, it must be the truth."
Hattori Heiji looked at Conan, who was reasoning with him seriously, expressionlessly, and then sighed.
ββ¦ Well," Hattori said as he reshaped his worldview in his mind, "there is such a miraculous drug in the world that can turn a high school student into two elementary school students." β
Believing in this "reality" is naturally not just because I witnessed Kudo Shinichi change back to Kaedehara.
He had already heard Conan explain it before that.
He had already suspected that Kaedehara and Conan were Kudo Shinichi himself, and he even believed in it.
So although it didn't quite fit his original worldview, Heiji Hattori finally believed in such an unscientific thing as "Shinichi Kudo not only became smaller, but also became two people".
After all, you can't admit that your reasoning level is not as good as that of elementary school students, right?
While the three people in the car waited for Dr. Asa to clean up, they had a discussion about the Blackcoat Organization - in fact, only Conan and Heiji Hattori were talking.
Unfortunately, despite his father being the boss of the Osaka police, Heiji Hattori still didn't know anything about the organization.
After a while, Dr. Asasa returned after cleaning up the traces of the "crime", and everyone left the amusement park.
Then send Conan back to the Maori Detective Agency.
Xiaolan had already arrived home first, and she also received a group photo from Kudo Shinichi's number.
She seemed to be in a good mood.
However, when she saw Conan, who came back later than her, she couldn't help but say a few words of concern.
She didn't know Conan's birthday.
However, Conan didn't care about his birthday... He even forgot that since today was Kudo Shinichi's birthday, it was naturally also his and Kaedehara's birthday.
He just lied to "Sister Xiaolan" to explain the reason for his late return, while vigilantly staring at Heiji Hattori, who sent him upstairs.
Intimidated by Conan's eyes, Hattori dispelled the idea of staying overnight at the Mori house and chose to follow Dr. Asa and Kaedehara, who were waiting in the car, to Dr. Asasa's house for a while.
For Heiji Hattori, this trip to the rice flower is obviously quite worthwhile.
Not only did he encounter a big case, but he also met Shinichi Kudo, who had been thinking about it for a long timeβand he was doubly happy.
So this night he was lying on the bed in the living room of the doctor's house, his mind full of the day's cases and the unscientific things that happened to Kudo Shinichi...
As a result, Hattori Heiji, who is at the same level as Conan in some aspects, rarely discovered something that Conan failed to discover.
"Hey, little Conan, since it's Kudo's birthday, it's also your birthday, right?" Heiji Hattori said to Conan, who came over early in the morning.
Conan was stunned for a moment: "It seems to be." β
"That's right!" Dr. Asa also looked like he had a sudden realization.
The corners of Hattori's mouth twitched.
"Do you still need it!" Hattori pressed Conan's head unhappily.
After being reminded by Heiji Hattori, Dr. Asa is ready to celebrate Conan and Kaedehara's birthdays.
And because Kaedehara is not in a good state, they finally choose to be at home - naturally ordering food from outside.
Since Kaedehara, who has the same birthday today, can be used as a cover, and now is the time when Xiaolan's suspicion is the lowest, Conan still agrees to Dr. Asasa to invite Xiaolan and Uncle Maori.
The two were a little surprised that today was Conan and Kaedehara's birthday. Xiaolan was a little disappointed that she almost finally knew about it, and hurriedly went to buy a gift before rushing to the doctor's house.
Kaedehara didn't know anything about any of this.
He slept until noon and didn't wake up until noon and felt much better. After washing, he walked into the living room and saw Xiaolan handing him the gift.
"Sora, happy birthday!"
In short, although his attitude towards his birthday was similar to that of Conan, his first birthday in the world of Kexue was basically a happy one.
β¦β¦β¦
Heiji Hattori returned to Osaka the next day.
Conan no longer has to worry about his bed being occupied, and the whole person is much more relaxed.
Xiaolan re-devoted her mind to the colorful high school study life.
Everyone seemed to be back to their usual state.
Apart from... Teenagers and regiments who don't have much sense of existence these days.
"This won't work!"
Dr. Asa glanced at the three elementary school students who were addicted to video games, and whispered to Kaedehara, "Since the last time you took the initiative to ask them over to play, this group of children has been coming here to play games almost every day, and one dozen is an afternoon!" If this continues, it will not be conducive to their healthy growth! β
"That's... Give them some anti-addiction measures? β
Dr. Asa doesn't seem to understand.
"It's just limiting their playtime." Kaedehara explained, "But you have to talk about it, Doctor. β
What he goes to say will only be pulled together to play games.
During this time, he was a little more familiar with the games of this era, and it was no problem to defeat Conan, but he was still an experience baby that this group of elementary school students liked.
Dr. Asa scratched his head in confusion, he had come to talk to Sora because he didn't want to talk about it.
Kaedehara sighed.
"If you want to get them out of the game, you'll have to find a real-life game," Kaedehara said, "Do you have any ideas?" β
Dr. Akasa's eyes lit up.
He's the best at this.
