Conan: After teaching the protagonist, they offered their loyalty.

Chapter 161 This is my heartfelt wish

Little Shirley opened her icy blue eyes and looked calmly at Fu Heishen.

Seeing Sherry's calm demeanor, Fuheishen's expression stiffened for a moment.

"Shen'er...you're back." Little Shirley sat up, her icy blue eyes, which had been somewhat hazy, instantly hardened upon noticing the silver strands of hair on Fu Hei Shen'er's clothes.

"Why did you buy so many roses..." Fuheshen'er looked at the roses on the table...

Snapped...

He casually plucked a pink rose and placed it on the table.

He used his right hand.

Snapped!

Another one broke off.

Sherry: "........."

"These are roses that I carefully selected with great difficulty. Don't you... like them?" Little Shirley asked softly, her voice sounding somewhat heavy and hesitant.

"Beautiful things always evoke a destructive urge..." Fuheishen said calmly, looking at Shirley, "What... do you care?"

But if you put it that way... it's a bit strange that Sherry's face can evoke both my destructive and protective instincts.

"You...don't you know the meaning of roses?" Little Shirley's lips twitched.

"The language of flowers?" Fu Heishen'er frowned. "What is it...?"

Sherry's eyelids twitched, and a hint of helplessness appeared on her delicate face.

Is it that you don't even know what feelings are, and it's just a simple case of impulsive actions?

She stood up from the sofa, tiptoed, and quickly removed the silver hair from Shen'er's clothes... examining it closely.

“Don’t misunderstand, this isn’t Gin’s…” Voxel observed Sherry’s expression, “It’s Vermouth’s.”

Little Shirley exclaimed in surprise, "Ah!"

Deep down, she was still somewhat afraid of Vermouth, the Thousand-Faced Witch.

But, with Shen Er beside me, that overwhelming sense of security seemed to fill me up... and I wasn't so afraid anymore.

I'm just a little shocked... Gin isn't worried, but Vermouth is.

Vermouth, known as the Thousand-Faced Witch... can transform into any form.

What if it confuses Shen'er?

Seeing that Shirley was lost in thought, Fuheishen reached out his large hand and ruffled her brown hair. "Don't think too much. I still have a good impression of you... Now, I'm a little sleepy. Come sleep with me."

For some reason, he'd developed a fondness for ruffling Shirley's hair.

The other person's brown hair was soft, and touching it felt like petting a kitten.

After hearing this, Shirley stood there dumbfounded, staring blankly at Fuheshen's figure.

She could clearly see her own slightly flushed cheeks reflected in the other person's eyes.

"Oh, oh..." Little Shirley was so confused by Shen'er that she didn't know what to say, so she could only nod.

Fu Heishen's lips curled into a grin.

Ha, it seems Sherry is a bit stupid, just like Ran.

She only needed a few words to steer the conversation away from the topic of the broken rose.

but...

He was simply telling the truth.

........

A few days later...

Even after being discharged from the hospital, Kogoro Mouri remains extremely cautious.

He would glance out the window every now and then, but after realizing that the terrorist organization didn't seem to care about him at all, he slowly became bolder.

Occasionally, I'll go downstairs to try and buy... a cup of coffee, or a newspaper.

Even worse... going to the racecourse to gamble on horses.

He got completely drunk.

After finding nothing amiss, the Mori Detective Agency finally resumed normal operations.

At the same time, the entire town of Beika began to become less peaceful.

Because... Conan went to school.

Beika Teitan Elementary School...

Class B, first grade.

Conan was intently studying the quotes...

'He didn't know he was wrong, but he knew he was dead...' — Fu Hei.

'Even wicked people need a savior for wicked people.' — Fu Hei.

'There are no useless abilities, only useless people, even if all they can do is drive...' — Yuzuka.

'Don't let yourself become a sick person in spirit.' — Yuzhong

"Time is like water in a sponge; you can always squeeze some out." — Kurosawa

'No one can stop the mission from being completed, just as no one can stop the desire for involution.' — Kurosawa.

'A secret makes women women.' —Bei.

"My lover is this organization!" — A blond, dark-skinned detective.

"Although I'm a bit socially anxious, I still have to protect our organization." - An anonymous socially anxious participant.

'A member who doesn't want to be a boss isn't a good member... How to get rid of Kurosawa?' — Calvados.

Based on the quotes, Conan seemed to believe that the detective organization was fighting against those dark forces.

Just like the Sherlock Holmes stories... fascinating and dangerous.

But upon seeing the following sentence, Conan's lips twitched...

My positive feelings towards this colleague, whom I might meet in the future, have also dropped to the lowest possible level.

Everyone else is thinking about helping each other, are you the only exception?

Thinking about how to get rid of your boss?

"Conan, what are you looking at?" x3

Upon hearing the Junior Detective League's voices, Conan took a deep breath and quickly put away the quotes.

If Genta snatches it and wreaks havoc on it, then we're doomed.

"It's nothing, it's just a detective novel..." Conan replied with a grin.

The Junior Detectives didn't say anything, but started chattering amongst themselves.

"I heard today that a new student is transferring in."

"Yeah, yeah, I wonder what kind of person that transfer student is."

"I hope it's a cute girl."

Upon hearing this, Conan subtly pursed his lips and let out a soft sigh.

He was here contemplating how to join a detective organization and fight against the forces of evil.

Meanwhile, the Junior Detective League was wondering what their new transfer student would be like...

Although this situation is quite normal, the contrast is really strong!

If I were to actually join the organization... then the Junior Detective League might disband...

Ding...

At this time, the class bell rang.

The classroom door was pushed open, and a female teacher wearing glasses walked in with a girl with brown hair.

Brown hair, just shoulder-length, a small, straight nose, cherry-like lips...and delicate features.

Wearing a sleeveless red top and khaki shorts... she looks very cute.

"Then, please introduce yourself?" the female teacher said with a smile.

Having learned of Shen'er's feelings and having lingered with him for a while... Shirley was in a good mood and coldly stated her name.

Then he walked straight to the cute-looking little girl and sat down.

Conan was somewhat surprised...

The other person's attitude is really quite different from that of an elementary school student...

..........

After finishing his sandwich, Fukushiro poured Ai Juice (the juice Ai squeezed) into his mouth and looked at the sun outside.

He remembered...it was autumn just a few days ago, wasn't it?

How did it suddenly become summer?

Ding...

The phone rang, and Fuheishen picked it up and glanced at it.

The sender is Gin, and the file name is... [Regarding the Training Plan for Campus Recruitment Members...]

After clicking on it, the list included Conan, Heiji Hattori, and a bunch of other unfamiliar people.

Looking at his phone, Fuheishen fell silent.
