Conan: Ran, don't turn around, I'm a washing machine.

Chapter 41 Meeting Ai

He's really feeling lost right now.

I was planning to go see Mingmei after this was over, but how am I supposed to go now? I can't even go a little bit.

Let's just go to Professor Agasa's house as a guest, and while we're at it, we can see Ai-chan and take some pictures to show Akemi later, otherwise she won't feel at ease.

He suddenly realized that his performance just now was terrible and did not match his usual image.

I wonder if Gin has any suspicions about him. Although he has never done anything to betray the organization, his lewdness is well-known throughout the organization.

Damn it, it's all Vermouth's fault. If she hadn't kept stirring things up, he wouldn't have lost control at all. He couldn't help but feel a little resentful.

What's most infuriating is that this matter has absolutely nothing to do with him. Is this what it feels like to be wronged? It's really not a pleasant feeling.

But thinking about it all is useless, and doubting it is pointless; it only gives others a preconceived notion about him.

In any future mission, he can change that perception with just a little effort.

There's nothing to worry about!

After figuring it out, he finished the sherry in his glass, got up and went out, then drove straight to Professor Agasa's house.

"Phew, we've finally arrived. It's the nth day of missing Black 1 and Black 2. Driving for such a long time is really uncomfortable," Su Xingbo sighed.

Dr. A Li's home.

Ai-chan sat on the chair at the dining table, swinging her legs back and forth. Every now and then, she would cut a piece of bread with a knife and then put it in her mouth with a fork to eat.

She is in a very good mood now because she has escaped the organization and is currently safe.

Her only worry was that idiot Shinichi Kudo; he was far too flamboyant, as if he wanted everyone to know that he was the shrunken Shinichi Kudo.

If those people find out that poison can shrink people, they'll associate it with her escaping the organization by taking poison, and then she won't be able to escape.

So she had to teach him a lesson, so she used Professor Agasa's phone to send him a text message to let him know the consequences of being arrogant.

But she waited for a long time without receiving a call from Kudo, and he never showed up, which she couldn't understand at all.

Ai-chan had no idea. Conan had been tricked like this before, but he didn't take it seriously and just kept going at a leisurely pace.

Unexpectedly, before Shinichi Kudo arrived, someone else showed up.

dong dong dong.

The sound coming from the entrance hall made her relaxed nerves tense up instantly. Who would come in directly without using the front door?

She quickly jumped off the chair, hid not far from the entrance, and then asked in a low, strained voice.

"Who is it? What brings you here?"

"Ah, Sherry, I've finally found you!"

"Hehehehehehehe." It was Su Xingbo who spoke. He deliberately imitated Gin's voice to tease her. He had arrived much earlier than Conan.

Ai-chan plopped down on the ground, a look of despair on her face, her whole body limp.

I didn't expect to be caught in just about a day. The organization's speed is really fast. And the person who came was Gin.

She's finished!

None of those who betrayed the organization met a good end.

She will be no exception.

For a moment, her mind was filled with countless thoughts, and she thought about many things.

But the sound outside the door interrupted her thoughts.

"Hey, Kudo-nii, what brings you to see Professor Agasa?" Conan leisurely arrived at Professor Agasa's house and saw Su Xingbo crouching at the door in a lewd manner, so he couldn't help but ask.

Su Xingbo turned around and saw, oh wow, it was Conan! How interesting.

He walked along, laughing, "I just had nothing better to do, so I came to see Professor Agasa. You got out of school so early today?" He had come here with Ran to see Conan before and had gotten to know Professor Agasa.

They opened the door and let Conan in.

"There are fewer classes today, so school is letting out early."

"Doctor, open the door, it's Conan!" Conan shouted at the door.

Ai-chan inside the door completely lost her composure. What's going on? Don't you know your own situation? You still dare to associate with people from the organization.

Gin, the second-in-command, kid, do your parents know you have such a wide network of connections?

Seeing that there was no response from inside the door, Conan hesitated. Could it be for real this time?

"Professor! Professor! Professor Agasa!!" Conan shouted, his voice growing louder with each shout.

Su Xingbo couldn't help but look up and interrupt him as he continued shouting, "No matter how much you shout, the doctor won't hear you. He's doing research in the basement." But he didn't say any of these words.

"Alright, alright, what's the use of just shouting? Don't you have a key?"

Yes! He has the key!

He gave Su Xingbai a grateful look, then took out his key and opened the door.

He opened the door and saw a little girl sitting on the ground. He walked over, reached out his hand, and asked her what was wrong.

"Who are you? Why aren't you opening the door? Where is Professor Agasa?"

Seeing that she didn't react, Conan simply walked past her and searched the house for Dr. Agasa.

He squatted down, looked at her with a smile, lifted her chin with his index finger, and spoke softly.

"Little sister, you'll catch a cold if you keep sitting on the ground."

Ai, who was just waiting to die, suddenly looked up and realized it wasn't Gin. She then looked towards the door but still didn't see Gin.

I couldn't help but start to doubt myself. Did I hear wrong? I must have misheard; I was just too nervous after escaping.

Moreover, he didn't have that frightening aura about him, and he didn't react when he walked next to her, so he definitely wasn't a member of the organization.

"call."

She got up on her own, closed the door, and returned to her chair without saying a word.

Seeing that she had sat down, Su Xingbo took the opportunity to sit opposite her and secretly took several photos of her.

This is all for Mingmei to see; I need to give her an explanation.

After a short while, Conan and Professor Agasa, whose face was covered in soot, came up from the basement.

As soon as he came up, he couldn't help but burst out laughing at Professor Agasa's appearance.

"Hahaha, Professor Agasa, how long have you been in Africa? You're probably not even as dark-skinned as Africans."

Dr. Agasa scratched his head and chuckled, "Explosions are common when we're conducting experiments."

"Be careful, Doctor," Su Xingbo reminded him.

"By the way, Doctor, who is this little girl? I've never seen her before."

Upon hearing this, Professor Agasa glanced at Su Xingbo. Since there were outsiders present, he couldn't say anything directly, so he could only bend down and explain to Conan.

After the explanation, Conan looked at Ai in shock, never expecting that someone from the Black Organization would appear right in front of him, and that they were researchers who were working on this drug.

For a moment, he didn't know what to say.
