After a while, there was no movement in the locker, as if there was no big living person hiding in it.
"You didn't really faint from fright, did you?"
Yuan Huaiyu murmured and quickly opened the cabinet door.
Sure enough, Conan looked like he was lying in the cabinet with great difficulty, breathing heavily.
Yuan Huaiyu quickly carried the boy out, and just as a gust of cold wind blew into the space, Conan, who was in a daze, shook his head, broke away from Yuan Huaiyu's hand, and fell to the ground.
As he had been curled up just now, he didn't realize that his legs and feet were numb. He staggered and almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, Yuan Huaiyu's quick eyesight and hands caught him, otherwise the famous detective might have another dark history.
.
"Teacher Yuan..."
Conan opened his mouth, but his thoughts were so confused that he didn't know what to say.
Yuan Huaiyu knew that this guy must have endless questions, so he sighed and said:
"Let's go out first and then talk. This is not the place to talk."
Conan looked around cautiously, but hesitated to speak.
"Don't worry, since Gin has said to withdraw, those guys in the organization, including those who are monitoring this area, will all withdraw together."
Yuan Huaiyu could tell at a glance what he was worried about.
"It's just that after dawn, the news that Itakura Taku is dead is made public. It's hard to say what will happen."
He said as he walked up the stairs.
Only then did Conan realize that Huaiyu had already learned about Itakura Taku's death, but he had not revealed anything to Gin and Vodka just now.
Although he was still a little weak, he still quickly followed Yuan Huaiyu.
When we walked out of Xianqiao Station, the snow was still falling outside, and it seemed to be getting stronger.
"Hiss...it's so cold."
Conan took a deep breath.
His inner clothes had been soaked with sweat just now, and now the cold wind hit him, making him shiver violently.
Yuan Huaiyu walked in front without saying a word, walking very fast. Conan, who only had the foot strength of a primary school student, had to trot to keep up with him.
Although Conan was brewing countless questions at this time, he also knew that since Yuanhuaiyu rescued him this time, it could explain a lot of problems.
At least, he should be able to learn some secrets from Yuan Huaiyu tonight.
After passing two intersections, Conan immediately saw Yuanhuaiyu's car and Dr. Ali waiting beside the car.
"Doctor! How could you..."
At this moment, he finally understood that it seemed that Dr. Ali and Mr. Yuan had communicated with each other for a long time, and the doctor deliberately kept it secret from him.
"Shinichi..." Dr. Ali glanced at Yuanhuaiyu with a smile, "Mr. Yuan will tell you what happened during this period, don't blame me..."
Hearing Dr. A Li call him by his real name, Conan secretly glanced at Yuanhuaiyu.
[Sure enough, Teacher Minamoto has already known that I am Kudo Shinichi, otherwise Dr. Agasa would not have called me that in front of Teacher Minamoto...]
"Get in the car, I'll take you home first, Dr. Ali."
The three of them got into the car again as they had just arrived. After Yuan Huaiyu fastened his seat belt, he turned to look at Conan:
"You can come and sit at my house later. Is that okay?"
"Yes!" Conan nodded heavily, with a hint of expectation in his heart.
Although I don’t know what purpose Yuanhuaiyu has to protect himself from under Ginjiu’s nose, there is no doubt that someone who can talk to Ginjiu on an equal footing, and even Ginjiu seems to be slightly weaker, will be more interested in what he has been pursuing.
This organization must have considerable knowledge.
"Mr. Yuan, Shinichi will leave it to you."
Soon, Yuan Huaiyu's car stopped in front of Dr. A Li's house. Dr. A Li nodded slightly to Yuan Huaiyu, then got out of the car and left.
There were only two people left in the car, Yuan Huaiyu and Conan.
Yuan Huaiyu fiddled with the music player in the car, and the melodious music sounded in this small space in the wind and snow.
""Yesterday Once More"..."
Conan quickly recognized this Carpenter classic.
The car swayed down the street at a leisurely pace. It was freezing outside, but the inside was as warm as spring. Accompanied by the wonderful music, there was a sense of leisure and independence from the outside world.
"Long time no see, Kudo Shinichi."
Seeing that the atmosphere had been heightened, Yuan Huaiyu finally spoke.
Conan was startled and realized that he was talking about meeting Kudo Shinichi again.
"Yeah, I didn't expect that the person I met by chance on the plane would actually..."
He responded to Yuan Huaiyu's words with a wry smile.
"Do you think I've changed a lot?"
Yuan Huaiyu chuckled and changed the subject: "But it seems to me that you haven't changed much - even if your body has become smaller, the expressive temperament of the famous detective is still as clear as a ball of ink on a white paper."
Conan was speechless for a moment.
All along, whether as Kudo Shinichi or Edogawa Conan, he has known that it is quite easy for him to be immersed in the case and enjoy the feeling of deducing the truth.
Coupled with the natural desire to perform inherited from his mother, this often makes him behave like a primary school student who is only in the first grade.
However, in the past, he could always get by with excuses such as "I watched it on TV" and "Uncle Maori taught me".
"It seems I can't fool you at all...Mr. Gen, when did you know that Edogawa Conan is Kudo Shinichi?"
Since the other party greeted him in the name of Kudo Shinichi, he naturally talked to him as the high school detective Kudo Shinichi.
More than a hundred years ago...
Yuan Huaiyu complained in his heart, kept his expression unchanged, and replied:
"I started to suspect Edogawa Conan not long after I met him, and it was finally determined that it was the case of printing counterfeit money when Xiao Ai had just transferred to Tedan Elementary School."
"Because I know that Xiao Ai is Miyano Shiho, codenamed 'Shirley' in the organization, so when she deliberately wanted to transfer to Didan Elementary School to be in the same class as you, I understood."
Conan's eyes widened.
"But...how did you know..."
"Let's talk about this later."
Yuan Huaiyu's face turned serious.
"How do you feel after today's incident, Mr. Detective?"
Conan immediately understood what he meant, his breathing stagnated, and he suddenly recalled the feeling of being surrounded by despair, and recalled that people related to him might suffer misfortunes...
"Oh...I know I was wrong..."
He himself is not a person who makes mistakes and does not know how to repent. After tonight, he felt that every time he thought about this night, endless fear would emerge in his heart.
"It's time for the passionate detective Kudo Shinichi to grow up..."
He leaned back on the back seat, holding his hair with both hands, and said with a sigh.
