[Conan] I just want to be a magician quietly

"Inspector, this diary is a bit strange. It seems that the tenants' names are indicated by colors. Judging from the content of the diary, this yellow man should be the real culprit of this arson case.

It's just that..."

The police officer who found the diary turned to the latest page of the diary, revealing a distressed but numb expression.

Wouldn't it be better to write the name directly? Wouldn't it be better to have fewer riddlers?

Inspector Yumio took the diary, and after reading it, he handed it to Conan very smoothly, but was intercepted by a hand wearing a white glove halfway.

Wakagi Ryo held the notebook and stared at Conan expressionlessly, which made Conan look embarrassed. He touched his pockets from top to bottom and found a handkerchief that had worked hard.

Wakagi Ryo smacked his lips and stuffed the diary into Conan's hand.

Conan: QAQ Don't curse, don't curse, I will go back and ask the doctor to help me sew gloves on all my pockets.

[…The red person can sleep in…He fell down when he was going home from school, but luckily the white person was about to go out…The yellow person did something suspicious every night and was discovered by his father. ]

Conan frowned, and for the time being he had no idea how to solve the puzzle. The only two people who knew the truth, Kaito and his father, were currently receiving treatment in the hospital for burns.

The little Corgi raised his head and looked at the three suspects.

Hosoi Ryuhei, a carpenter; Okiya Subaru, a university graduate student; Makabe Ginya, a freelance worker. Under the premise of excluding Okiya Subaru, which of the other two is the yellow person?

Conan was trying to decipher the mystery, while Huihara Ai gradually calmed down because Akai Shuichi had dispersed the alcohol smell, and under the comfort of the fluffy cat, her mood gradually stabilized.

Wakagi Ryo took out some snacks from his pocket, fed the little black cat, and rubbed the little black cat's head.

"Go call Xiaobai over."

The little black cat lay in Huiyuan Ai's arms, munched on the snacks happily, and then jumped out. Not long after, the little black cat ran back happily, followed by a little white dog and a slow-moving Border Collie like a master.

Wakagi Ryo called the two small furry ones over to play with the little loli, and he stretched out his hand to rub the Border Collie's forehead twice.

"Go to work."

The Border Collie lazily shook its tail, slowly bypassed the police officers who were purely for decoration, and rushed to the fire scene where most of it collapsed. After sniffing around, he sharpened his claws and started digging a pit after confirming the location.

The small theater here did not attract Conan's attention for the time being. He was obsessed with reasoning and had locked the culprit of the arson case, Makabe Ginya, through the contents of the diary and the new clues provided by the police.

Conan: "Just look for the yard. The diary says that the yellow man does suspicious things every night, and Mr. Makabe's fingernails are full of traces of dirt. It can be inferred that Mr. Makabe chooses the night time every day to hide from the eyes of others and bury something shameful in the yard."

As soon as Conan finished speaking, a Border Collie appeared in front of everyone with a dug box in its mouth and its tail wagging.

Conan: ...

Ryo Wakagi took the gray box from the Border Collie's mouth and praised it.

"Conan has solved the puzzle, so smart."

Conan: ...

I always feel like I have been insulted.

The box is full of cash. Makabe Gin, a freelancer, does not deposit his daily income into the bank because he does not want to pay taxes, but chooses to bury it directly in the yard.

After being discovered by the landlord, he pushed the landlord down the stairs in a hurry, and then in order to cover up the crime, he simply thought of setting the house on fire.

Of course, in order to prevent the cash he buried from being burned, he called the police anonymously not long after the arson.

In short, he is a very beige-style arsonist.

---------------

After solving the arson case, Okiya Subaru came to talk to Conan and Huihara very familiarly, and then shamelessly ignored Huihara Ai's vigilant expression, and followed the two fake children to Dr. Agasa's house.

Because of the smell of alcohol when they first met, on the way back, Huihara Ai almost hid behind Wakaki Ryo, only half of her head was exposed to look at Okiya Subaru who was talking to Conan about Sherlock Holmes with great interest.

After returning to the doctor's house, Huihara Ai abandoned Wakaki Ryo's wrinkled coat that she pulled, and hid beside the sturdy doctor.

Dr. Agasa really didn't know the true identity of the pink-haired, squinty-eyed man who was using his voice changer., but started chatting with Subaru Okiya enthusiastically.

"A graduate student in the Department of Engineering at Kyoto University. If you get a doctorate degree in the future, you will be my competitor."

Subaru Okiya smiled and said a few polite words, and asked the doctor casually.

"In such a big place, are you the only one living with this little girl?"

Ai Haibara's eyes suddenly became sharp.

What do you want to do? !

"Then if there is one more person, there should be no problem. To be honest, the apartment I rent is the Trojan Village next door, but it has been burned down. Before I find a new place, can you take me in for a while?

During the rental period, I can serve as your experimental assistant and help share some housework."

Ai Haibara: !!!

Da Me !!!

Ai-chan's whole body was suddenly full of resistance. When the doctor tentatively asked for her opinion, she shook her head wildly to refuse.

Conan saw that everything was indeed going according to the script he had written, so he decisively started to follow the plot.

"Then let's use Shinichi's house. Anyway, no one lives there for the time being. Look, it's right next to the doctor's house."

Habara Ai: ???

For a moment, Haibara Ai really wanted to pry open Conan's head, and then pour the temporary antidote he had been thinking about into it to see if there would be any unusual chemical reaction with the brain paste.

This person with unknown origins and suspicious at first glance, you want to put him in your own house?

Are you okay, Edogawa? ???

Haibara Ai turned her head and looked at Wakaki Ryo with a look of help. Wakaki Ryo looked back a little blankly, as if she didn't get the reason why Haibara Ai asked for help.

Haibara Ai: ...

While Okiya Subaru was looking at the Kudo house next door through the window, she grabbed Conan and questioned him in a very low voice.

"You let a person of unknown origin live in your house like this. Aren't you afraid that your secret will be exposed one day?"

Conan turned his head and gave Huihara Ai a naive smile.

"No, I believe that people who like Sherlock Holmes are not bad people."

Huihara Ai: ...

Gin also likes Sherlock Holmes! Why don't you just run and tell him that you are Kudo Shinichi!

It's over, there's no hope. Is it too late to change a partner now?

Here, Conan has handed the key of his house to Akai Shuichi very smoothly, and said something meaningful.

"When Brother Shinichi is not at home, as a temporary resident, you have to help him look after the house."

Akai Shuichi: "Don't worry."

In the face of Huihara Ai's despair, Akai Shuichi, wearing Okiya Subaru's skin, opened the door of Kudo Shinichi's family.

Five minutes later, an alarm rang so piercingly that it could almost shake the entire street, scaring Conan so much that he almost had a myocardial infarction on the spot.

Conan: ! ! ! ! !

"What happened?"

Wakagi Ryo slowly reached out and touched Huihara Ai's head, calming the little loli's nervous mood.

"Maybe it triggered the alarm in your house."

Conan: ? ? ? ? ?

"Why didn't I know there was an alarm in my house?"

Wakagi Ryo said confidently: "Of course I installed the alarm. It was installed when my house burned down some time ago and I stayed at your house temporarily."

To welcome Akai Shuichi who will move in sooner or later.

Conan: ? ? ?

"That, Wakagi-san, although I know you should have good intentions, but, modifying it at will..."

Wakagi Ryo blinked.

"What are you thinking? Am I such an impolite person? Of course, I modified it with the consent of Uncle Yusaku and Sister Yukiko.

Hey, didn't they tell you?"

Conan: ...

What do you think?
