Fujino stepped forward and kicked the baseball bat away.

I could hear the crisp sound of the baseball bat rolling.

Fujino couldn't help but silently criticize the physical constitution of the people in this world.

This baseball bat is definitely made of iron.

Fighting three people and killing one of them along the way, yet they still managed to leave behind so many pits.

All I can say is, this guy is really ruthless.

The people in this world are really tough.

Otherwise, the manufacturer may have cut corners during production.

Otherwise, it's because those girls' skulls are unusual.

It probably varies from person to person.

After all, he has never encountered a skull that could be Inch Force Skull Splitter as if he were forging iron.

"Fujino- Senior!"

At this moment, Sonoko also recovered from the shock of being attacked.

She stood up and couldn't help but burst into tears, throwing herself at Fujino.

"..."

Fujino glanced down at Sonoko, who was crying and sniffling, and felt somewhat helpless.

I originally wanted to push it away, but after thinking about it, I decided against it.

I feel that doing this is a bit too inhumane.

Then he sighed softly, thinking to himself, "Looks like I'll have to wash these clothes when I get home."

Before long, someone finally remembered Sonoko, the nobody.

A group of people rushed over. Ran noticed Sonoko first and quickly went up to ask, "Sonoko, are you alright?!"

"It's okay."

Sonoko was now full of energy again. "With Fujino- Senior here, how could anything possibly happen to me!"

"It's good that Fujino- kun is here."

Juzo Megure couldn't help but sigh, taking out handcuffs from his pocket and cuffing the unconscious Kiyofumi Jin: "But I really didn't expect this guy to dare to commit a crime in broad daylight right under our noses."

"Hey! Brother Fujino, didn't you already realize that the security guard was the murderer?"

Conan looked at Fujino and suddenly asked in confusion.

After leaving the Sonoko, he said he needed to go to the restroom, and coincidentally, he ran into someone.

What a coincidence!

They must have known all along!

"Well..."

Fujino glanced at Conan, thought for a moment, and said, "Those girls in 109 were all wearing platform shoes, so it's normal that they misjudged the culprit's height. Also, the victim in this attack is connected to a case from a year ago. I think it's a family member of that case from a year ago... After seeing that guy follow Sonoko away, I was a little worried, so I followed him."

"Brother Fujino, why didn't you say so sooner?"

Juzo Megure was somewhat speechless. "If you had told us earlier, we could have investigated and caught this guy right away."

"I'm just speculating, I don't have any evidence."

Fujino turned to look at Conan, his tone somewhat meaningful, a slight smile playing on his lips, "And I was about to say something, but Little Brother Conan interrupted me... Don't you think so, Little Brother Conan?"

"Little brat..."

Sonoko, somewhat resentful, walked over and punched Conan on the head, playfully spinning him around a couple of times. "If only Fujino- Senior had said it sooner, I wouldn't have had to suffer like this!"

"I just wanted to help Brother Fujino solve the case quickly..."

Conan was a little embarrassed and could only give an awkward smile.

How did he affect Fujino's performance?

Isn't Fujino always like this?

What has changed?

But upon closer reflection...

I think I did interrupt Fujino earlier.

So it turns out you were the one who affected their performance!

Who knew Fujino could figure out who the murderer was so quickly!

With the murderer caught, the case was naturally solved.

After giving their statements at the Juzo Megure Metropolitan Police Department, Fujino drove everyone home.

"Thank you so much for today, Fujino- Senior."

Sitting in the back row, Sonoko reflected on the day's events and thanked Fujino.

"Um..."

Ran nodded in agreement. "If it weren't for Fujino- Senior noticing that guard, Sonoko would probably have been attacked."

"It's nothing, we're all friends, no need to thank me, it would make us seem distant."

Fujino silently gazed at the road in front of him and responded with a single sentence.

'Just friends...?'

Sonoko glanced at Fujino in the rearview mirror, her expression somewhat strange, then sighed with regret.

But then she roused herself, glancing at the night view outside the window with her eyes slightly narrowed.

Soon, Fujino sent everyone home, so they could go back to their mothers.

Park the car in the underground garage and slowly walk upstairs.

I already knew that dinner was ready at the upstairs table.

"I'm back!"

Fujino pushed open the door to the third-floor bedroom and greeted them.

Welcome home!

Ai Haibara and Akemi Miyano were inside the room, responded.

"Haven't you eaten yet?"

As Fujino took off his coat, he went into the bathroom and threw his suit into the washing machine. He then came out and glanced at the untouched dinner on the table.

Akemi Miyano smiled and said, "It was Ai said she wanted to wait until she got back to eat together."

"Alright, hurry up and eat. The food has been kept warm and is still hot."

Ai Haibara came out of the kitchen carrying a tray with three bowls of rice. "I made curry today, so it's okay that it's a little cold."

"Thank you for your help."

Fujino chuckled softly and sat down to eat.

After dinner, the whole family sat in front of the TV and watched TV.

After all, the internet wasn't very developed back then.

The family's evening entertainment consisted mainly of television.

The same applies to short videos, or other games.

"By the way, when we were shopping today, we seemed to run into someone you know, Fujino- kun. They seemed to admire you a lot."

Sitting on the sofa, Akemi Miyano suddenly remembered something and smiled meaningfully.

Immediately, she pulled out three tickets from her jeans and recalled, "They seemed to be twins, very cute. After recognizing Ai, they gave us three invitation tickets and invited us to this hotel."

Ai Haibara reminded her, "They are the two maids we met at that philanthropist's house before."

"I remember."

Fujino immediately thought of the pair of 'identical', stern-faced maid girls.

He took the invitation ticket, glanced at it, and looked up at the two of them with a puzzled expression. "So, they've changed careers now?"

"Um."

After thinking for a moment, Ai Haibara nodded. "It seems they went to work at the hotel that gave the invitation ticket. We ran into the two of them when we were shopping earlier."

"No wonder they have invitation tickets; they must be for internal staff use."

Fujino rubbed her chin, feeling that the waitress profession was indeed quite suitable for the two sisters.

After all, they were twin waitresses, plus their demeanor.

It's a real shame he didn't become a waiter.
