Conan: Above force, everything is truth!

"Hey, Takeda. Are you listening to me?"

"I'm listening, I'm listening. Anyway, since you've investigated so thoroughly, why are you looking for me?"

"Uh..."

Kudo Shinichi looked at Tatsuno across from him, his mouth opening and closing.

In fact, he didn't want to contact Tatsuno before solving all the puzzles, but so far, he had no clues except the time of the crime and the identity of the criminal.

It's almost impossible to find the criminal and the crime location in such a big city like London.

Therefore, he had no choice but to contact Tatsuno to see if Tatsuno had any ideas or clues.

To put it more bluntly, he just wanted Tatsuno to help him think about it.

But out of the detective's pride, how could he easily say such a reason? !

At this moment, Kudo Shinichi's heart suddenly throbbed. After the small throbbing, it was followed by a sharp pain like a needle.

He pressed his chest tightly with his hand, his face grim.

Seeing this, Ryuno on the side didn't know what was going on. He looked up and looked around, then pointed to the bathroom next to him with his chin: "Okay, there aren't many people in the store, and there's no surveillance. Go and transform~"

Kudo Shinichi poked his head to look at the location of the bathroom, then rushed to the bathroom with a sports bag.

Looking at Kudo Shinichi's stumbling back, Ryuno picked up the exquisite cup in front of him and took a sip of cappuccino.

If Conan didn't lie just now, the effect of the antidote has lasted for nearly 3 days since he drank it.

The previous "first version" antidote only made Conan bigger for more than a day, but this time the antidote can last nearly twice as long.

It seems that Xiao Ai's research has made a significant breakthrough~

But...

Ryuno smiled slightly and glanced at the dark outside the store with his peripheral vision.

This is obviously not a coincidence, Sera Masumi.

After a moment, the shrunken Conan sat back in his seat with a sports bag in his hand, sweating profusely.

He picked up the tissue on the table and wiped the sweat off his face, then smiled and said, "Takeda, did you notice? The effect of the drug lasts longer this time! At this rate, the real antidote may not be far away from me!"

Tatsuno nodded, without refuting Conan, but glanced at the store through the glass again.

Sera Masumi's eyes had changed from confusion to horror.

The next moment, her figure disappeared from the spot.

Tatsuno retracted his peripheral vision and smiled at Conan, who was looking excited opposite him.

"Kudo, let's get back to the point. The place chosen by the criminal to commit the crime should be the Wimbledon tennis court."

"Ah? The tennis court... why is it there?" Conan, who came back to his senses, looked at Tatsuno in confusion, frowning slightly.

"Map."

After saying that, Ryuno stood up and walked towards the door, waving his hand casually, leaving Conan with only a dark back.

It's not that he wants to show off, but...

Damn, Xiaolan is still waiting for me at the hotel, who wants to play detective games with you here at night? !

Conan watched Ryuno walk out of the door and curled his lips speechlessly.

This guy, why can't he sit down with me and reason about the case properly?

Map? Are you going to use this word to get rid of me? !

Map...

After getting a little inspiration, Conan found the map of London on his mobile phone, and then marked the "hint locations" he found in the morning one by one in his mind and connected them together.

The next moment, a familiar shape appeared in his mind.

"This is - a tennis racket?!"

At this time, Conan finally understood the true meaning of the word "map" that Ryuno said.

"Wait! That guy knows this... That means he has already seen through the code in the notice and deduced the crime location?!"

Thinking of this, Conan covered his head unwillingly.

Damn! It's like this again, Takeda is one step ahead of him again.

He only glanced at this crime notice at that time. Could it be that he solved the puzzle in this crime notice in just a few seconds? !

Damn! Apart from his father Kudo Yusaku, only Takeda can bring him such a melancholy sense of failure...

Humph! He keeps saying that he doesn't want to be a detective, but he is always one step ahead of himself.

I saw through it! You are obviously a loyal believer of Sherlock Holmes like me! ! !

Wait, although you are indeed one step ahead of me now, I will definitely catch the criminal before you!

...

In the suite of the Park Hotel.

"Is it this Kudo Shinichi?" The blonde girl glanced at the picture that Sera Masumi found on the laptop.

"Yes, I have just done some simple research. Kudo Shinichi hasn't publicly solved a case or accepted an interview for a long time!""I saw with my own eyes that just after he disappeared, a boy who looked very similar to him appeared! The boy looked exactly like the childhood Kudo Shinichi whom we met at the beach ten years ago!"

After listening to Sera Masumi's explanation, the blonde girl's pupils trembled and her brows furrowed.

"You mean, he got smaller?"

"Yeah!"

After thinking for a moment, the blonde girl took out her mobile phone and sent an email to her MI6 colleague, asking him to help investigate the information about Kudo Shinichi.

Although there is not enough evidence to show that this "Kudo Shinichi" was also fed drugs by the organization, according to what her daughter said, this matter is almost certain. Next, it depends on whether her colleagues can find useful information.

After confirming the message, she looked up at her daughter and said calmly: "Assuming that your guess is correct, Kudo Shinichi is related to the organization... Then, the one called Takeda Tatsuno must know the relevant information!"

Sera Masumi nodded and said with a hearty smile: "I know, I will find a way to investigate~"

After hearing her daughter's answer, the blonde girl put away her mobile phone and stared at the report on Kudo Shinichi on the laptop, slightly lost in thought.

If he was also fed that drug and his body became smaller... then how did he return to his original body?

Could it be that he has the antidote? !

...

The next day

Tatsuno and Xiaolan walked out of the hotel door refreshed and headed towards the original tourist destination "Hyde Park".

For some reason, the two people's steps were obviously much lighter than yesterday.

"Tatsuno, is that a statue of Sherlock Holmes? It seems that the people of London really like Sherlock Holmes~" Xiaolan pointed to the tall bronze statue not far away and asked.

Tatsuno looked in the direction of Xiaolan's finger, and saw a slightly imposing full-length statue of Sherlock Holmes standing in the middle of a busy street.

After coming to London, he couldn't remember how many times he had heard about Sherlock Holmes.

Although from the city's perspective, Sherlock Holmes is just a "gimmick" to attract tourists. But most people here seem to really like... no, it should be said that they respect this "legendary" great detective.

It's as if... Sherlock Holmes is not a fictional character written by Conan Doyle, but a real historical figure in reality.

Just as Xiaolan was about to take a photo with Tatsuno in front of the statue, a blonde woman wearing a blue shirt and jacket, a baseball cap and brown sunglasses walked up to them.
