Fujino: She's hungry for me too?!

The girl carried a white bag and wore a short black top with white embellishments on both sides of the collar, with a white long skirt wrapped around the top.

She wore a white wide-brimmed hat over her short, brown hair, along with a face mask and elegant sunglasses, giving her an air of sophistication.

Although I couldn't see her face clearly.

But judging from the face shape and hair color.

Fujino still vaguely sensed that the girl in front of him was Shiho Miyano.

He was a little unsure, blinked, and took another look.

Hmm, nice figure.

Now it's confirmed, this person is Shiho Miyano.

Although it's quite common to look alike in this world, there are also quite a few people who wear different hair colors.

But you rarely run into someone with that kind of figure.

"Um... excuse me, are you the High School Detective Fujino who often appears in the newspapers?"

Shiho Miyano walked slowly toward Fujino and asked softly in a surprised tone.

"I am Fujino. May I ask what I can do for you?"

Fujino was somewhat puzzled as to why Shiho Miyano would be at Teitan High School.

I just feel like she's in some danger right now.

Although she had done a good job of disguising herself from her appearance.

But Teitan High School still has a master of disguise.

If this were discovered, he would probably be executed on the spot.

"Actually, it's like this, my sense of direction isn't very good... and the layout of this school's festival is a bit complicated..."

Shiho Miyano offered an explanation, then continued in a somewhat embarrassed tone, "I'm a big fan of your detective work, but I don't know anyone else. So, could you, the Great Detective, show me around the school festival?"

Fujino: "..."

So, you risked coming all this way just to attend the school festival?

She even cultivated a persona of being a directionally challenged girl?

And she did it so convincingly...

Fujino was speechless for a moment, feeling that something was not quite right.

Seeing that Shiho Miyano didn't reply, Fujino thought for a moment and felt that it was indeed a bit abrupt to invite a stranger to the school festival, so she said, "Of course, I won't go to all this trouble for nothing... How about a fee of 100,000 yen?"

"Um?"

Upon hearing this, Fujino's ears perked up. He had already planned to bring the girl along anyway, so he immediately agreed, "Since it's a temporary request, and I don't have anything else to do anyway... then I'll gladly accept your offer."

"Okay, thank you for your help."

Shiho Miyano nodded in satisfaction.

Today is her second day after regaining her identity. Yesterday, she recorded her physical condition, bought a new set of clothes, and then went to visit Sister Akemi in Snow King Ice City.

Unfortunately, I didn't run into Fujino.

The antidote's effects won't end until the afternoon or evening.

Having just received information that Fujino was at school, she had missed him after not seeing him for a few days and decided to come and visit him... and also take a look at the school festival.

Fortunately, she had anticipated this when she went to Xuewang yesterday and exchanged some coins.

Otherwise, the strategy for today would have failed at the very beginning.

She was unaware that Vermouth was there, nor that Fujino had seen through her completely.

Thinking that his little trick to lure Fujino had worked, he happily took out ten 10,000 yen bills from his bag and paid the money.

So where should we go first?

Fujino took the banknotes, put them away, and led her down the corridor.

"Just lead the way."

Shiho Miyano followed slowly beside her.

Her gaze lingered on Fujino's profile through her sunglasses, and she was momentarily stunned.

She usually looked up at the camera, but now that she was looking straight ahead, she suddenly felt a difference.

She finally understood why that woman had fallen for him.

Thinking of that woman, a strange thought suddenly popped into Shiho Miyano's mind...

If that wicked woman can do it, then she should be able to too, right?

Hmm, we can give it a try while we have the chance.

Shiho Miyano made a decision in her heart.

Fujino said absentmindedly, "If it's a school festival, it'll probably just be some food stalls, or..."

Shiho Miyano didn't reply. She glanced around and, seeing that no one was around, leaned against Fujino and pulled his arm into her bosom.

"Um?"

The soft touch startled Fujino, who was using his Eagle Vision to survey his surroundings.

A vast landscape painting suddenly flashed into my mind, along with the earth-shaking events that have occurred throughout human evolution...

He looked down and saw a classic scene.

My arm got caught again.

Fujino: "..."

Why does it feel so familiar?

Could it be that she's also after me?!

Fujino's mind exploded; he was somewhat confused, but also greatly shocked.

Question: What should I do if a little girl who lives with me grows up and starts having feelings for me?

Shiho Miyano's lips curled slightly behind her mask.

She was quite satisfied with Fujino's reaction.

Compared to that scheming woman, she considered herself somewhat superior...

But something feels off.

My heart seems to be racing a little?

"Cough..."

Fujino coughed lightly and skillfully withdrew his hand. "You just now..."

"I lost my balance just now..."

Shiho Miyano had also recovered by this time, and her face behind the mask was a little flushed.

Actually, she was also remembering that Ooka Momiji used to do this often...

That's why I thought I'd go over and play a trick on him.

But in practice...

Shiho Miyano couldn't understand how that wicked woman had managed to remain so calm during her last trip.

The atmosphere suddenly became somewhat awkward.

"Well?"

Just then, a surprised sound came.

Fujino turned his head and saw Ran and Sonoko walking towards him.

Yes, the savior has arrived!

"Fujino- Senior, who is this...?"

Sonoko walked over first, looked at Shiho Miyano with narrowed eyes and a look full of suspicion.

"This is my client..."

Fujino gave a brief explanation, "Anyway, she came to visit the school festival, but she accidentally got lost, so she asked me to show her around."

Are you lost?

Sonoko frowned, glanced at Shiho Miyano's reaction, and then at Fujino.

I think I smell something sour and foul.

These two seem to be hiding something...

"So they were lost..."

Ran nodded in understanding, feeling the same way.

After all, she has a terrible sense of direction and has often made a lot of blunders because she doesn't know the way.

Thinking of this, she chuckled and said, "In that case, how about we go to the school festival together?"

"Yes, Ran is right!"

Sonoko silently gave her best friend a thumbs up, "School festivals are more fun when you're with lots of people!"

"May I?"

Fujino looked at the two chattering girls and asked in confusion, "I remember we had to rehearse."

"It's okay!"

Sonoko waved her hand, "Our show starts tomorrow, and we actually finished rehearsing yesterday."

"Um."

Ran nodded and explained, "Doctor Shinide also said that we should get some rest and experience the school festival."

Fujino didn't think much of the suggestion to go to the school festival together.

With the two of them around, the atmosphere will be much better... at least it won't be so awkward.

Shiho Miyano had no objections.

She also felt that she had indeed gone a bit too far just now.

Without firefighters, things would likely have spiraled out of control...

The group strolled around the school festival stalls, occasionally buying some snacks.

Fujino kept his eagle eye on to prevent a certain singing actress from launching a sneak attack.

Shiho Miyano followed behind, glancing at the three people in front of her, her eyes behind her sunglasses slightly narrowed.

Judging from her behavior, the girl with the big forehead seems to have a bit of a crush on Fujino.

The last time he went out at night, it seems he rescued her...

But it's not a big problem; the advantage lies with her!

The only person she could be considered an opponent was that woman who was just as cunning as she was.

In the afternoon, on a car traveling on the Beika Town Highway.

"Tsk tsk tsk, I really didn't expect that a cold woman like you would actually have someone she cares about."

Conan, sitting in the back row, munching on Sunflower Seeds, looked at Ai Haibara sitting next to him with a mischievous Ai Haibara and teased, "By the way, how was your time at the school festival with Fujino?"

Ai Haibara: "..."

This guy is getting more and more annoying.

Her good mood was shattered by the attack. With a cold face, she glanced at Conan's mischievous grin and said calmly, "Don't you want to turn back into Kudo Shinichi?"

As she spoke, she opened the car window. "If you don't want to turn back, you can talk about it. Anyway, I only have one antidote left. If you don't want it, I can just open the car window and throw it away."

"Cough, no..."

Conan coughed lightly and quickly explained, "I was just curious."

"I'm just curious..."

Ai Haibara glanced at the clothes she had just changed out of beside her, then said playfully, "Anyway, it's not bad. Besides me and Fujino, there's actually that person living across the street..."

"..."

Conan was a little confused. "What's going on with Ran?"

"Um..."

Ai Haibara pondered for a moment, then said meaningfully, "In any case, you'd better be careful."

"...?"

Conan was completely dumbfounded, and a hint of sourness crept into his expression.

No, shouldn't this be a special event for you and that guy Fujino?

How did Ran get involved?!

Depend on!

Conan gasped, managing to calm himself down before looking at Ai Haibara and asking curiously, "So, this medicine really does work?"

"The test results confirm this."

Ai Haibara nodded and said calmly, "Based on the effects I just experienced, apart from some weakness, there are no other side effects for the time being."

"Then I can turn back into Kudo Shinichi?!"

Conan was overjoyed; he could finally turn back into his original form!

"Don't be too happy yet."

Ai Haibara interrupted Conan's unfounded speculation, "The antidote's effects only last for one to two days. After that, the antidote will wear off, and you'll turn back into Conan Edogawa."

"That's not bad either."

Conan smiled and nodded.

Although I can't completely turn back into Kudo Shinichi, it would be good if I could turn back temporarily.

We can also teach Fujino a lesson along the way!

Hmph, if I, Ke, can't teach you a lesson, then Kudo certainly can!

Meanwhile, at the maid café of Teitan High School.

"Achoo!"

Fujino was sitting in a coffee shop when he suddenly covered his mouth and sneezed. "Why do I keep feeling like someone is cursing me?"

He pulled a napkin or two from the table, wiped his hands, but seemed somewhat absent-minded.

To be honest, Shiho Miyano coming back after turning back was really beyond his expectations.

Although he doesn't really understand things like relationships.

Some are even quite oblivious.

But even so obvious, he could tell that the little girl definitely had feelings for him.

Actually, it's not that serious.

He knew he was acting to escape.

This is true of Ooka Momiji, and it's also true of Shiho Miyano.

However, he didn't know how to face it.

"Well..."

Fujino sighed, picked up his coffee, took a sip, and looked out the window. "So relationships are such a hassle."

That evening.

"Ah--"

Accompanied by a painful scream.

Conan successfully transformed into a girl.

Pshaw... Kudo Shinichi.

"Haibara... why didn't you tell me beforehand?"

Kudo Shinichi came out of his bedroom, changed into his old Teitan High School uniform, sweat beading on his forehead, and grimaced in pain as he looked at Ai Haibara and complained.

"Why are you saying anything in advance?"

Ai Haibara sat on the sofa, holding a cup of hot cocoa, and turned to look at Kudo Shinichi, asking in confusion, "Is the medicine ineffective, or did it just turn you into a girl?"

"Become a girl?!"

"I didn't say anything..."

"Hello!"

Kudo Shinichi quickly checked his manhood and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that it was still there.

"It hurts so much to turn back!"

Kudo Shinichi said wistfully, "I thought I was going to die just now..."

"That's normal."

Ai Haibara said something, then pretended to be confused. "But didn't I tell you this?"

"You didn't say anything either!"

"Then I must have forgotten. Hmm, I'll definitely do it next time... But you'll probably know next time."

Ai Haibara continued to feign ignorance, her tone tinged with regret.

It wasn't that she forgot, but rather that she didn't say it.

After all, I was in pain yesterday.

Let the guy who lets you reap the benefits prepare himself in advance...

I feel a bit uneasy.

Kudo Shinichi: "..."

You forgot?

It feels like this is targeting me, Conan... Kudo.

Is this retaliation for what just happened?

It's true what they say, birds of a feather flock together!

Kudo Shinichi was speechless for a moment, then continued, "But speaking of which, if I turn back into Kudo Shinichi, what about Conan..."

"Don't worry about that. I'll be pretending to be Conan Edogawa for now."

"Ai, everything is ready."

As soon as Ai Haibara finished speaking, Professor Agasa walked out of the laboratory, carrying a box in his hand.

"Disguised as Edogawa?"

Kudo Shinichi was puzzled.

"So who do you think is going to clean up the mess you left behind?"

Ai Haibara said irritably, took out a suit from the box and changed into it, then put on a wig and glasses.

Then, she became the female version of Shinigami Elementary School Student.

It's not that they're exactly the same, but there's not much difference when you wear a mask.

"Ai's outfit is really nice!"

Professor Agasa, who was standing nearby, laughed and said, "If I didn't know, I would have really thought it was Conan."

"Ahem..."

Ai Haibara adjusted her mask and voice changer, feeling a surge of emotion welling up inside her. She then pointed at Kudo Shinichi and shouted, "There's only one truth!"

Kudo Shinichi: "..."

I've become a stand-in?
