This left Conan speechless. He thought he knew Professor Agasa well enough, but he never expected that Professor Agasa had this kind of identity: a supplier to a notorious international thief!
Seeing Conan deep in thought.
Professor Agasa was afraid that Shinichi would ask him for information about his old friend. After all, Shinichi had a very strong sense of justice, and if he insisted on capturing Kaito Kid, he would be in a difficult situation.
On one side is an old friend of decades, and on the other side is Shinichi, whom they watched grow up and who is as close as their own nephew. They are in a dilemma!
To avoid this situation.
He immediately changed the subject.
"Oh, right, here, take this."
Professor Agasa seems determined to arm Conan to the teeth. He pulled out a phone that looked exactly like Conan's and introduced it again:
"I've built a scanner into this phone that can show the location of nearby listening devices and surveillance cameras. There's also a simple automatic hacking program in the phone that can hack into computers with weak security. You should find it useful!"
"Thank you, Doctor!"
Conan took the phone, his face showing gratitude.
Speaking of which, the doctor is really a strong support for me. Each of these items is very useful and should be of great help!
As the exclusive supplier of the internationally renowned thief Kaito Kid, Professor Agasa is helping me out like this, which is quite exciting!
"Then let's go!"
After Professor Agasa finished speaking, he stood up and prepared to pack his things to go to the Daikoku Building with Conan. After all, even with so many gadgets, Shinichi's current body is still that of an elementary school student, and he still needs backup.
"Need not!"
Conan quickly stopped him.
"Doctor, you can just wait at home. I have so many gadgets; even if I'm discovered, escaping will be easy. If you come too, then—"
Conan didn't finish his sentence.
But Professor Agasa already understood what he meant.
That means you'll be a burden!
but--
Professor Agasa was self-aware enough to glance at his own large belly and admit that if he went along, he might indeed be a hindrance if anything unexpected happened...
"What if we encounter danger?"
Professor Agasa was still uneasy. Although his gadgets were useful, he had no idea how many people were in that organization, while Shinichi was all alone.
"Don't worry, Doctor. I'm not going to fight that organization directly this time. I'll just gather some intelligence and come back. Maybe I won't even need to alert them. After all, although this elementary school student's body is inconvenient, it's very deceptive and will basically not arouse suspicion!"
Conan explained with a serious expression, and then added:
"Besides, even if I really encounter danger, I can call for backup. My mom says I can trust Officer Xia Ye, who lives next door. I've decided to ask him for help. Just a couple of days ago, he even told someone he wanted to take me on as his apprentice. Isn't it only natural for a master to help his apprentice when he's in danger?"
"Officer Xia Ye?"
Professor Agasa stroked his round chin and pondered:
"I haven't had any dealings with Officer Xia Ye, but I have chatted with his two younger sisters a few times!"
"The older one seems very virtuous, much like Xiaolan in personality. The younger one is aloof and seems unapproachable, but she seems mature, just like you!"
"Judging from his two younger sisters, he seems like a good person. Plus, Yukiko said he's trustworthy, so it's good that you're asking him for help, Shinichi. However, he is, after all, a member of the Metropolitan Police Department. Could it be that—"
"It's okay~"
Conan was skeptical of Professor Agasa's logic of concluding that Natsume was a good person based solely on her sister's appearance, but—
“I just asked Xiaolan. Xia Ye doesn’t seem to have a strong sense of belonging to the Metropolitan Police Department. He only went to work there because he was interested. I reckon that even if he knew about the organization, he probably wouldn’t tell the Metropolitan Police Department!”
"I understand!"
Dr. A Li nodded.
No longer having any doubts about Conan's actions tonight, he took Conan's electric skateboard, replaced the battery with a larger one, and then saw him out.
The Black Organization's headquarters, the Daikoku Building, is also located in 2-chome, just over a kilometer away from the upscale villa area. Even Conan could reach it quickly on foot, not to mention the "nuclear-powered skateboard."
Conan rode off into the distance on his skateboard.

Dr. Agasa was about to return home to continue monitoring the information transmitted by the listening devices and transmitters when he turned around and saw a pair of pretty and cute sisters standing by the door next door. They were the Haibara sisters that he had just talked about with Shinichi.
"Good evening, Ai and Ai!"
Dr. Agasa greeted them with a smile.
"Hello, Doctor!"
Mingmei wore a polite smile and bowed slightly in return, displaying impeccable manners.
"Hello~"
Ai is quite different from her older sister.
She usually has a cold face and doesn't talk much when facing outsiders, which is a completely different state when she is with Xia Ye and familiar people!
"Isn't Yukiko at your house?"
Professor Agasa glanced at the dark Kudo residence next door and asked curiously.
"Yukiko-neechan just went out to meet a friend."
Akemi answered softly.
"Is that so?"
Dr. Agasa chatted for a few more minutes.
He finally said goodbye and returned to his own villa.
Ai and Akemi watched his retreating figure, then glanced at the street corner where Conan had disappeared. Akemi smiled and said:
"Shiho, why don't you go have some fun?"
"Didn't Yukiko ask you to come along?"
"cut!"
Ai curled her lip in disdain:
"What's so fun about teasing kids? Besides, I have to go to the organization's base. I don't want to go to such a disgusting place again!"
"Shinichi Kudo is about your age!"
Mingmei pinched her younger sister's pink and tender face and smiled slightly.
"Hmph, they're just kids!"
Ai snorted softly. That Shinichi Kudo is quite smart, but he's still a kid at heart and doesn't think about the consequences of his actions. Otherwise, why would Natsume, Yukiko, and Ran have arranged things for him tonight? They just wanted to teach him a lesson.
"Haha~"
Akemi's eyes suddenly filled with tears, and she gave a soft, ambiguous laugh:
"That's true. My Shiho is a proper 'adult' now, tsk, and she's become such a mature adult. My once innocent and cute little sister is now so playful. I don't know whether to be happy or worried~"
"sister!"
Xiao Ai's pretty face flushed red.
My sister really speaks her mind, but—
"Hmph, when are you going to use the [Time Capsule], sister? You're always teasing me, you must be itching to get started, right?"
"You really want to give your sister away?"
Akemi pouted, feigning annoyance, but her beautiful blue eyes sparkled with a captivating light. Clearly, Ai had guessed correctly; she was indeed looking forward to it.
"What else?"
Ai took her sister's hand, gestured towards the villa with her lips, and sighed softly:
"The one inside has already gotten ahead of you, sister. You should just finish your business quickly. I can't be bothered with it anymore. It's actually quite nice for the whole family to be together!"
"Pfft——!"
Mingmei couldn't help but chuckle. This girl had even learned to quote "famous sayings" now. This particular quote was from Xia Ye, and he hadn't even used it to describe his family's complicated situation, except—
It's actually quite fitting here!
"Let's go——"
Akemi looked at the virtual screen in front of her:
"Let's go back. If you don't want to go to Xia Ye's place and join in the fun, we can watch the live stream at home~"
"it is good!"
In front of Ai and Akemi.
There were three virtual screens. On one screen was Ran, who was with Natsume, her pretty face flushed, clearly having just done something naughty; Yukiko, disguised as a blonde, blue-eyed foreign woman, sitting at the bar drinking; and—
Wearing pajamas and curled up on the spacious bed, fast asleep, Bellemore was completely unaware that she had exposed herself, her long, white legs and slender waist on full display.
Saying.
What exactly is this woman planning to do? II.
Chapter 231 Conan: My Dad Drinks and Cheats, My Mom Runs Away From Home
Looking at Vermouth, who was scratching her tummy.
Ai adjusted the angle and took several photos of herself sleeping in a silly pose that was quite different from her mysterious, elegant, sexy and charming image.
Such embarrassing photos from the past.
You can use this as material next time you argue.
Although it may not be of much use.
Ai pouted, feeling that reconciling with Vermouth was almost the same as not reconciling at all. That old woman would sometimes send her chat messages in the middle of the night to harass her, speaking in a condescending tone and acting like an elder. She hated it!
Akemi ordered a martini at the bar counter and started chatting with Yukiko, who had rejected five men who tried to pick her up in just over ten minutes.
Ai hummed at Vermouth, who was still sleeping, and joined the chat.
at the same time.
Conan arrived at the Daikoku Building on his skateboard. After observing the building for a while, he boarded the sightseeing elevator and pressed the button for the top floor.
"Little friend, wait a minute!"
As Conan gets closer to the enemy's lair, his heart tightens. Just as the elevator doors are about to close, a hand suddenly slips in, startling him so much that he almost touches his "700" drunk watch.
The elevator doors opened again.
What came into Conan's view was a handsome and beautiful couple. The man was dashing and sunny, and the woman was charming and pretty. They looked like college students, wearing matching outfits and acting affectionately.
"Sorry, little one, did I scare you?"
The man was gentle, glanced at the somewhat wary Conan, and asked with a smile in his eyes.
The girl beside him also had gentle, beautiful eyes, but she didn't say anything. She just smiled faintly and took the man's arm.
"no!"
Conan quickly waved his hand.
These two people were not suspicious at all, and they gave off a very friendly feeling, which put his mind at ease.
Looking at the couple in front of him, Conan feigned innocence and said:
"Brother and sister, come in quickly!"
"What a good kid!"
The couple walked into the elevator hand in hand. The man patted Conan's head, glanced at the floor buttons, and exclaimed in surprise:
"Little friend, do you want to go to the top floor?"
Conan felt a chill run down his spine. The top floor was a bar, and it was perfectly reasonable for adults like the couple in front of him to go to a bar, but it would be too conspicuous for a child like himself to go to a bar.
