Conan never let his guard down.
That fleeting glimpse just now.
He had already formed a deep impression of the invading enemy.
Those deep, black-hole-like pupils held only mockery of their prey, devoid of any pity.
As for why he used a non-lethal poison—
That was just toying with the prey!
really--
With a series of slow, steady footsteps, Conan saw a pair of shiny leather shoes. Then, the owner of the shoes gently squatted down, and he finally saw that face that could be described as handsome!
Even though they are on opposing sides.
Even Conan had to admit it.
This mysterious and alluring face has a fatal attraction for women and girls of all ages!
"Handsome?"
Conan was suddenly stunned.
The unfamiliar yet magnetic male voice fit the persona of the enigmatic man, but the words he uttered seemed somewhat out of place with his refined demeanor, making him appear inexplicably cheap.
However, at this time, we need to appease them first—
"I can already see the answer in your eyes~"
The strange man didn't wait for Conan's reply and said with a smile to himself.
This guy is a lunatic!
Conan was already certain of his decision.
however--
The strange man's behavior chilled him to the bone!
to be honest--
Compared to this guy.
He would rather run into Gin and vodka.
Even when encountering the most vicious criminals, it is possible to reason with them, after all, even the most evil thoughts have logic. However, there is no way to deal with mentally ill people, because the thinking of mentally ill people has no logic, and who knows what they are thinking.
"Do you have any opinion?"
Seeing the complicated look in Conan's eyes, the strange man chuckled narcissistically:
"Any man would feel inferior in front of me, and a kid like you who went from a high school student to a brat is no exception!"
"!!!"
Conan was startled and horrified.
To know.
He was just praying in his heart that this guy hadn't overheard his conversation with the doctor.
Otherwise, anyone with a discerning eye could instantly deduce the truth of the matter just from the doctor's single word "Shinichi"!
however--
Prayer had no effect whatsoever.
The strange man still overheard the crucial conversation!
It's over now!
"Hehe, I originally just thought it was a bit strange that those guys were inexplicably approaching a child, so I casually put a tracker on you. Later, when I saw you escape from the bar using methods that a child could never use, I became even more interested!"
The eerie man's lips curled into a slight smile:
"I never expected that after following them here, I would hear such shocking news: the high school detective Shinichi Kudo has turned into a child!"
"Since your target is the organization, then I dare to speculate that it's the organization that turned you into this! Tsk, I had no idea the organization was so powerful. Shinichi Kudo, tell me, how much would it cost me if I handed you over to Gin's organization?"
Conan is still unable to speak.
His heart sank deeply.
He gleaned a great deal of useful information from what the strange man said.
For example, the strange man is not a member of the organization, but he has some relationship with the men and women in the bar who are very kind to him, and they seem to be enemies!
For example, the organization doesn't seem to know that the poison Gin and Vodka fed him has the effect of reverting one's body to childhood. No wonder they seem to have forgotten about him, and the organization didn't react at all. It seems they thought he was already dead!
Are you curious about who I am?
The eerie man's deep eyes seemed to see right through Conan's heart. He didn't seem to be in a hurry to take Conan away, but instead made a gesture as if he wanted to have a talk with him.
Conan nodded with difficulty.
Even if I die, I want to know who killed me, and maybe I can leave some message after knowing their identity. My father will be returning to Japan soon, and with his intelligence, he might still have a way!
"Since you've asked so sincerely—"
"Then I will tell you with great mercy!"
"for--"
"Ahem, I'm an assassin. People in the underworld give me a lot of respect, calling me the number one assassin in the underground world, and they even accept the title I casually gave myself: Chiwen!"
"Actually, I have no connection with the organization you're looking for, we just have some business dealings. On the contrary, those guys you met at the bar today—tch! They're like ghosts that won't go away!"
This was the first time Conan had seen a negative expression on Chiwen's face; before, he always maintained a haughty demeanor!
The disgusted yet helpless expression on his face shows that this so-called number one assassin has no way to deal with those people!
"What's that look in your face?"
Conan was unexpectedly perceptive. The thought had barely crossed Conan's mind, a slight shift in his gaze, when the dragon-like creature read his thoughts, and a chilling expression instantly appeared on its handsome, otherworldly face.
Do you think I'm afraid of them?
"if not?"
Conan thought to himself.
The usually gentle and refined Chiwen had a calm and composed expression, but now there was a hint of nervousness on his face. Although it was barely perceptible, Conan, who was focused on details, could still tell.
That was incredibly frightening!
but--
At this moment, he dared not reveal the truth and provoke the number one assassin, "Chiwen"!
Now we are at their mercy, like fish on a chopping board.
Our lives are in their hands, okay?
however--
It seems it's already too late!
Chiwen was somewhat embarrassed and angry. The tension on his face had disappeared, replaced by a cold and stern expression. He grabbed Conan by the collar and said calmly:
"It's getting late, I should take you to see Gin. I haven't told him about what happened here yet, I'm sure I can give him a big surprise!"
Conan tried to struggle.
However, the effects of the poison were very long-lasting, and even now he still had no strength left. He struggled desperately but couldn't even make the Chiwen's hand twitch!
Chiwen ignored him.
Instead, he walked up to Professor Agasa.
Chiwen glanced at Professor Agasa lying on the ground, seeing the resentment in his eyes, and stepped on his head.
Conan was furious when he saw this. This bastard actually attacked the doctor who was unable to move!
He already felt some regret.
I should have known better than to rush into investigating the Black Organization. After all, it's a terrifying criminal organization, and even the top assassin in the underworld, Chiwen, has worked with them.
We should have been cautious from the start when dealing with an organization like this!
Knowing their location, wouldn't it be safer for the doctor to use his hacking skills to break into the bar's computers and search for information?
To act without understanding the other party.
Now even Professor Agasa has been implicated—
Damn it!
Conan is reflecting on his actions here.
Chiwen rolled his leather shoe around the doctor's head, seemingly having grown tired of it. Instantly, a steel needle appeared in his hand, its bluish color indicating its properties.
"It's not easy to move around with such a fat old man!"
"Let's just send this old guy to his grave first!"
"do not want!"
Conan's eyes are filled with despair!
For the first time, as a believer in Detective Conan, he prayed to all the gods in his heart, hoping that someone could come and save the doctor!
"boom--!"
It seemed to have heard Conan's prayer.
An angel has descended!
The door to Professor Agasa's house was kicked open, and a slender and perfect figure streaked across the room, instantly closing in on Chiwen. With a sharp cry, the descending "angel" threw a punch!
Chiwen remained calm and composed in the face of adversity.
She flung Conan toward the slender figure, but the "angel" abruptly stopped. Her fist transformed into a grab, catching Conan in her hand. Then, she tilted her head slightly, and a blue, venomous needle flew silently past her ear.
If she were a second later.
We've already fallen into their trap!
"Xiaolan!"
Conan was being carried by Ran.
His eyes were filled with surprise!
Now that Xiaolan is here, then Xiaye—
but--
Now is not the time to be happy.
In the midst of battle.
That poisoned needle was just a feint.
As Chiwen flung out its poison needles, it lunged forward, its fingers curling into claws that seemed to carry a malevolent wind as it clawed at Xiaolan's pretty face.
Faced with a formidable foe, Ran had no choice but to gently toss Conan aside, letting him land right next to Professor Agasa, while she herself charged towards Chiwen!
Conan watched anxiously.
however--
My heart sank.
Xiaolan is no match for him!
Even though he knew nothing about fighting, he could still tell who had the upper hand. In the current arena, Xiao Lan, whom he considered a master, was instantly suppressed by Chi Wen.
After a few moves.
Chiwen punched Xiaolan in the chest.
Xiao Lan's pretty face turned pale, then a blush rose to her cheeks. She was instantly sent flying backward, crashing heavily against the wall with a low groan of pain, clearly indicating that she had suffered a serious injury.
"Hehe~"
Chiwen walked up to Xiaolan and sneered:
