The next afternoon

At the gate of Teitan High School.

Tatsuno and his four friends were walking on their way home from school.

"By the way, Xiaolan, have you changed your makeup recently? I feel your skin looks particularly hydrated today!" Sonoko stared at Xiaolan's face for a while and asked in confusion.

Xiaolan's skin was originally very good, but she always felt that Xiaolan's skin looked more delicate and rosy today.

"No~" Xiaolan smiled and waved her hand.

Tatsuno heard the conversation between the two and took a closer look at Xiaolan's face.

Sonoko was not wrong. Xiaolan's skin today was indeed different from before.

It should be the effect of the toner and cream that were recently launched.

However, this also indirectly shows that Xiaolan really likes the fireworks show he prepared~

It's worth buying so many fireworks.

After hearing Xiaolan's denial, Sonoko turned her head and looked at Tatsuno again.

Not only Xiaolan, she always felt that Tatsuno's skin was also very good today.

"No, forget it. I also want you to recommend me something... Wait, I remembered something important!!"

Speaking of this, Sonoko suddenly remembered something and looked at Ryunosuke and the others excitedly.

"Let's go skiing in a few days! My dad's friend gave us a lot of accommodation tickets the day before yesterday! It seems to be in a place called 'Ze', where a snow festival is being held recently~"

"Anyway, my dad and his friends don't have time to go, so why not use the tickets? Let's go together for two days!"

"Snow festival?" Ryunosuke and the others said in unison.

"Yeah, that's right! It sounds fun, doesn't it~" Sonoko closed her eyes and nodded.

"Sorry, Sonoko, I have something to do in a few days, so I guess I can't go..." Sera Masumi clasped her hands together and smiled bitterly.

Although she wanted to go, there were too many things that happened recently.

Both she and her mother were trying their best to collect information from all sides and think about the next arrangements and plans.

Seeing that Sera Masumi said that she couldn't come, Sonoko sighed regretfully, "It's okay... But we don't seem to have gone out together yet. If you suddenly have time, you must tell us!"

After that, Sonoko opened her eyes wide again, pretending to be pitiful, and looked at Tatsuno and Xiaolan.

"Where are you two?"

Hearing this, Tatsuno and Xiaolan smiled and looked at each other, "We should be fine."

After hearing the two's reply, the "grievance" on Sonoko's face disappeared instantly, and she laughed twice, "Then it's settled! If you can't come either, I will be so bored!"

"Really Sonoko, you are always so exaggerated~" Xiaolan covered her mouth and laughed.

...

Soon after, Sera Masumi returned to the hotel with dinner.

After putting the dinner on the table, Sera Mari also came over.

"I received intelligence that those guys have already left the country by plane today. Although I don't know what happened recently, the antidote must be dealt with as soon as possible!"

"Yes, I understand, Mom." Sera Masumi nodded seriously.

"If there is a chance, find a way to get close to them. If they are confirmed to be reliable..."

At this point, Akai Mary changed the subject, "By the way, how is your investigation going recently?"

Hearing this, Sera Masumi recalled the intelligence and information she had obtained during this period:

"It is certain that Conan is indeed Kudo Shinichi. He is also the one who helped the 'famous detective Maori Kogoro' solve the case behind the scenes."

"But I'm still not sure where the antidote in his hand came from. Although the inventor named 'Dr. Agasa' is very close to them, I don't think the antidote should be made by him."

Akai Mary nodded slightly, confirming her daughter's judgment.

She also investigated the 'Dr. Agasa', who was just an ordinary 'inventor'.

Although he may be smart, scientific invention and drug research are not the same thing at all.

Even if Dr. Agasa is smart, it will be difficult to make an antidote if he doesn't know the information about 'that medicine'.

Speaking of which, that medicine seems to be a red and white capsule...

Just as Akai Mary was lost in the memory of the 'medicine', Sera Masumi beside her suddenly chuckled.

"By the way, mom, there is another interesting thing that has nothing to do with intelligence~"

"Huh?"

"Tatsuno Takeda seems to have challenged many schools and dojos before, and this matter has even become an 'urban legend'. He is called the 'devil of martial arts' by those people~"

Akai Mary: "???"

Seeing the 'doubt and confusion' expression on her mother's face that she hadn't seen for a long time, Sera Masumi's mouth corners widened.

After a moment, Akai Mary looked at the windowOutside, he said lightly: "I hope they can become the expected candidates. The organization has been making big moves recently. We don't have much time..."

...

Two days later

The First Investigation Division of the Metropolitan Police Department.

Officer Takagi and others gathered in front of Inspector Megure's desk with serious expressions.

"Really, Inspector? Is this really a threatening letter sent to the mayor?!" Officer Takagi looked at the photo on the table and said in surprise.

"Yes, the photo shows the threatening letter sent to Mayor Asakura's home yesterday afternoon. There is no sender's name on the letter, so please take a close look."

Inspector Megure handed the photo to several people.

The text on the letter seemed to be printed out by a printer. The spacing between words and paragraphs was the same, giving people a weird feeling.

Officer Sato slowly read out the contents of the letter: - "Your arrogant and reckless administration over the past four years will surely be punished by God..."

After hearing the contents of the threatening letter, Officer Chiba frowned, "Arrogant and reckless? I remember that the public has always had a good opinion of Mayor Asakura's administration, right?"

"Well, after all, everyone feels differently about the same thing. Even for the same policy, there will always be people who are dissatisfied and angry." Officer Shiratori said lightly.

Hearing this, Inspector Megure nodded on the chair: "Brother Shiratori is right. Mayor Asakura will attend the opening ceremony of the Touto Line tomorrow. We will be responsible for the mayor's safety, and you must not relax at all!"

- "Yes!"

...

The next morning

At Fusa's suggestion, Dr. Agasa took the visiting Junior Detective Team out to eat sushi.

The yellow Beetle merged into the traffic on the highway.

While driving, Dr. Agasa reminded Conan and the other three in the back seat, "We are about to enter the 'Shin-Yamamate Tunnel'~"

"I remember! This tunnel seems to overlap with the Touto Line halfway~" Mitsuhiko said excitedly after looking at the map in his hand.

"Yes, this tunnel will pass right under the Touto Line, and will run parallel for about one kilometer~" Conan added.

At this point, Conan pointed to the front, "It's here. After entering this bend, we will meet the Touto Line."

Hearing this, Mitsuhiko and the other two also showed excited expressions.

In this case, the train might be running over their heads at this moment!

Thinking of this magical scene, Mitsuhiko and the other two showed joy in their eyes.
