Downstairs from the Mori Detective Agency.

"Conan! How could you go out alone in the middle of the night!"

Because of a phone call from Fujino, Ran was just now grabbing Conan by the ear and giving him a good scolding.

Ran seemed to have just woken up, wearing a light pink nightgown that accentuated her graceful figure.

"I'm so sorry, Sister Ran!"

Conan grinned, looking apologetic. "I was just really Kaito Kid was like, and I wanted to see for myself..."

"That's no excuse for you to run out alone in the middle of the night!"

Ran took a deep breath and raised her voice. "Do you know how dangerous it is for a child to run out alone in the middle of the night, especially when he's going to the place where that Kaito Kid appears?"

Ran was initially relieved that Conan had become a normal child again because he wasn't interested in the Kaito Kid's affairs.

But little did they expect that a moment of inattention would lead him to sneak out in the middle of the night to look for some Kaito Kid.

When Ran first discovered Conan was missing, Ran was very worried. If Fujino hadn't called to say that he had brought Conan back, she would have almost gone to the police station.

She couldn't understand what was wrong with Conan; why was he always so mischievous and disobedient...?

Conan scratched the back of his head and said awkwardly, "Ran- neechan, I'm fine."

"If something happens next time, how am I supposed to explain it to your parents?"

Ran looked at Conan's unrepentant appearance and couldn't help but sigh wearily.

The last time was the same, and the time before that was also the same. If it weren't for Fujino- Senior, she really didn't know what would have happened to Conan.

Thinking of this, she turned around and bowed slightly to Fujino beside her, "I'm so sorry, Fujino- Senior, for making you go to the trouble of taking this child home..."

"No... it's okay, it's just on the way."

Fujino's gaze flickered slightly, and he quickly waved his hand.

Ran is wearing pajamas now. Pajamas are usually very thin and loose... How scary.

After a moment, Fujino, having recovered his senses, pulled out three tickets from his pocket and changed the subject. "By the way, I have a few tickets for Yoko Okino's concert tomorrow. I remember Uncle Mori seems to really like Yoko Okino."

Tickets to Yoko Okino's concert?

Ran took the ticket, glanced at it, and when she realized it was a VIP ticket, she asked in surprise, "VIP tickets must be very expensive... Is it really okay to give it to my dad?"

"It doesn't matter."

Fujino waved his hand and explained, "I know Yoko Okino, and she gave me these tickets. I don't know any Yoko Okino fans, so it would be a shame if I didn't give them away after the concert."

"In that case, thank you, Fujino- Senior."

Ran chuckled softly upon hearing this, then stuffed the tickets into the pocket of her pajamas.

"Oh, right, Ran, there's one more thing..."

"Well?"

Under Ran's surprised gaze, Fujino leaned close to her ear and whispered, "I think I mentioned before that Conan seems to have some psychological issues."

"Fujino- Senior, you do seem to have mentioned that..."

" With Conan in this state, the problems I told you about before seem to have become even more serious."

Ran was stunned for a moment upon hearing this.

Recalling what Fujino had told her about Conan's psychological issues, her delicate brows furrowed slightly.

"I understand, Fujino- Senior."

Ran nodded, then turned her gaze to Conan, her eyes showing a hint of seriousness.

'What exactly did Fujino say to Ran?'

Feeling their gazes, Conan couldn't help but swallow.

The next morning, April 1st.

Fujino and the Mori family arrived at the Beika Activity Center, the venue for Yoko Okino's concert.

The VIP seats are located directly in front of the stage, offering a clear view of Yoko Okino on stage.

Looking around, you can see countless fans holding up glow sticks and cheering wildly.

"As expected of a top idol..."

Fujino looked around at the magnificent scene and murmured softly.

To be honest, this was his first time attending a concert.

"Yoko! Yoko! gogogo!"

The Uncle Mori next to me was sitting in the VIP section, waving a glow stick incongruously with everyone else around him.

Ran sat next to Mori Kogoro, her face slightly flushed with embarrassment at Uncle Mori strange behavior.

As for Conan, he took the initiative to sit next to Fujino, showing the protective look of a husky guarding its food.

And so, the concert continued until 9 p. m.

After the concert, Ran and her group went home first.

Fujino was called to the dressing room by Yoko Okino's manager.

"Miss Yoko?"

Skipping the backstage area of the venue, Fujino found the singer's dressing room. As soon as he pushed open the door, he saw Yoko Okino sitting on the sofa, drinking Green Tea.

At this moment, Yoko Okino was wearing a pink performance outfit. After a day of singing, there seemed to be some sweat still remaining on her forehead and temples.

Beside Yoko Okino sat a mysterious long-haired boy wearing overalls, a hat, and sunglasses.

However, in Fujino's keen observation, the man was actually a woman.

As for how it came about...

Why are your son's pectoral muscles so exaggerated?

"Detective Fujino, you've arrived."

Upon seeing Fujino enter, Yoko Okino chuckled lightly, then introduced him to the person in overalls beside her, "Minami, this is the Detective Fujino I mentioned to you."

Upon hearing this, the woman dressed as a man stood up, sounding somewhat excited. "You're Detective Fujino! I've seen you in the newspaper!"

Fujino paused for a moment upon hearing the sound.

Why does that voice sound so much like Shinigami Elementary School Student?

Could it be...?

After thinking for a moment, Fujino walked to the single seat next to the sofa, sat down, and then asked the woman named Minami, "You wouldn't happen to be Minami Takayama, the lead singer of the popular group TWO-MIX, would you?"

"Oh dear, I've been recognized."

Minami Takayama took off her sunglasses and hat. "I didn't expect you to see through my disguise so easily. You truly are Great Detective."

"It's just some basic detective skills."

Fujino chuckled modestly, "Besides, Miss Takayama, your voice sounds a lot like someone I know."

"Very similar?"

Minami Takayama frowned, her face full of confusion, clearly not understanding the meaning behind Fujino's words.

Ignoring Minami Takayama's question, Fujino asked directly, "Since Ms. Takayama is here, you must have some request for me, right?"

"That's right, I do have something I want to ask Detective Fujino to do this time..."

"I feel like I've recently been harassed by those sasaeng fans that Yoko mentioned."
