Maori Detective Agency.
Xiaolan sat at her desk, her diary unfolded in front of her.
On the virtual screen, Eri Kisaki was dressed in a light purple business suit, with a neat hairstyle and light makeup, clearly indicating that she was at work.
[Yukiko Fujimine requests a video call; should we start a group chat?]
Group chat?
Xiao Lan was slightly surprised.
Logs have this hidden function?
Open!
After starting the group chat.
A new virtual screen appeared above the log, displaying a picture of Yukiko.
"Xiao Lan, did you see that?"
Yukiko asked shyly.
"I saw it!"
Xiaolan didn't know what to say.
It's actually quite normal for teenage boys to have those kinds of thoughts.
But if such a thing happened to her, she would absolutely not be able to accept it!
"Then I might as well not send Shinichi to your house..."
Yukiko couldn't very well let Shinichi take advantage of Ran!
"Let's do this~"
On the screen, Eri Kisaki put down a document and offered a suggestion:
"Shinichi can move into the agency."
"After all, Xia Ye said that he and that guy still have a lot of scenes to play."
"But Xiaolan wants to move in with me, wouldn't that solve the problem?"
"But, Dad won't have me to take care of him..."
Xiaolan was conflicted; it was questionable whether her father would survive without her care...
"It's alright!" Yukiko said with a smile.
"I'll pay Kogoro a large sum of money; then we can just pay for meals and such!"
"That's fine~"
Eri nodded. As long as her daughter was alright, she couldn't care less about that man!
And so, the two mothers decided on the future where Conan and Kogoro Mouri would depend on each other for survival.
.........
I wrote a few lines in my log.
Xia Ye opened the system again.
Yesterday I was "bothered" by Yukiko for half the day, and today I've been busy for half the day again.
There's hardly any chance to check system notifications.
Today is Monday.
That's right, Xia Ye asked Xiao Lan.
Because it's a long weekend, she doesn't have to go to school even on Monday; instead, she can go out and play.
Surprisingly, the bizarre timeline of the Detective Conan world actually makes sense.
Because it's Monday.
The system added an identity for him.
[The Newbie Village's Singing God]
He seems quite ordinary, without any special abilities.
Xia Ye felt that she didn't really need it.
After thinking for a moment, he took out the [Resurrection Dew], which he had received as a reward from the previous Crane Needle identity quest.
This thing has the word "immortal" in its name, so it must be an ethereal product, and its effects are top-notch.
But not everyone has the courage to let go of everything and start over from scratch...
Jingle bell bell~
Xia Ye quickly hung up the phone and glanced at the sleeping Shiho.
He casually placed the [Resurrection Elixir] on the table.
Gently supporting Shiho's head, Natsume placed her on the sofa before getting up to return the call from Sister Bei, which she had previously hung up on...
"A mission? Teacher, who do we need to kill?"
Upon connecting the call, Vermouth immediately gave Xia Ye a task.
"Yes, I'll send you the mission objectives and information."
Vermouth's voice was low and languid, "Just finish it as soon as possible~"
"I understand," Xia Ye asked.
"Teacher, didn't you say you were coming to Japan? When are you coming?"
"What? Missed me?" Vermouth asked with a charming tone, chuckling lightly, "I'll be there soon, don't rush~"
"Good~"
After exchanging a few words, Vermouth hung up the phone.
Xia Ye turned her head and saw Shiho, still sleepy-eyed, getting up from the sofa. She had already taken a bite of her peanut butter and blueberry jam sandwich and was picking up the bottle next to her, gulping down a huge mouthful!
???
By the time Xia Ye rushed over and snatched the bottle, only half of the fairy dew remained inside!
"Shiho, don't drink anything you shouldn't!"
"What do we do now?!"

Chapter 47 The Miyano Sisters' Preparations to Leave the Organization
on the sofa.
Natsume and Shiho stared at each other, wide-eyed.
Xia Ye held a half-empty bottle of [Resurrection Dew] in her hand.
On Shiho, the simple T-shirt that originally fit her perfectly had been transformed into an off-the-shoulder top.
Her small, smooth shoulders slipped out from the neckline.
The shorts on her legs had become ridiculously loose; if she hadn't been sitting down, they would have fallen down long ago.
With her delicate and adorable face and petite figure, Shiho now looks almost exactly like Ai Haibara.
"Xia Ye!"
Shiho pointed at the elegant celadon vase in Natsume's hand and said angrily:
"What is this?"
Faced with Shiho's questioning, Xia Ye gave a slight, bitter smile:
"Didn't you see everything?"
"[Resurrection Fairy Dew]"
"Basically, it's a harmless, enhanced version of drug A..."
"Drug A!"
Shiho glared at him angrily, wishing she could pounce on him and bite him to death.
This dangerous stuff was placed next to a half-eaten peanut butter and blueberry jam sandwich, disguised as a bottle of beverage.
Could it be that Xia Ye, this "six-six-seven" guy, wanted to turn me into a child and deliberately left me there?
Thinking of what he had written in his diary about wanting to sleep while hugging his shrunken self, Shiho's expression was full of doubt.
"Did you deliberately put it here for me to drink?"
"How can this be?"
Xia Ye quickly held up the bottle in her hand and explained:
"Drinking a whole bottle of this stuff will turn you into a baby!"
"I had no idea you'd drink half a bottle!"
"What if you drink a whole bottle? Am I supposed to raise you from a baby to an adult?"
"Then what should I do now?"
Shiho's eyes were filled with despair.
"I can research an antidote for Drug A myself, but where am I supposed to find an antidote for this?"
"Am I going to live like a child forever?"
"It's okay, Shiho, don't worry!" Natsume pulled her into his arms and gently comforted her, "I'll find a way! Trust me!"
Xia Ye has decided to start diligently completing tasks.
Since the identity quest can reward [Resurrection Dew].
That would definitely reward you with items that allow for rapid growth.
As long as you complete more tasks, obtaining these items is only a matter of time!
It was definitely not Shiho's intention to shrink this time.
Although he does like Ai very much, Shiho herself has no interest in becoming a child and actually hates it.
Natsume didn't want to go against Shiho's wishes.
Let's think of a way to turn her back!
"Hmm~"
Shiho was actually just a little flustered because she suddenly shrank, but she still trusted Natsume a lot.
Her face regained its composure, and she nodded gently. "I believe you!"
"But that's all in the future!"
"The most crucial thing now is—"
Natsume, holding Shiho's shoulder, said earnestly:
"Your body shrinking happened a bit too suddenly!"
"We don't have time to make overly detailed plans!"
"If you don't show up at the research institute by tomorrow morning, the organization will immediately become suspicious!"
"So I need to make some arrangements before tomorrow morning~"
"How to do?"
Shiho's face was serious, and she looked somewhat worried.
Xia Ye originally intended to make thorough preparations before taking any action.
But this sudden change has caught everyone off guard!
