Must Smash His Head In!
"Guess for yourself."
Fujino chuckled and casually put his hands behind his head, "After all, it can be considered a class assignment left by Ms. Jodie."
"Well..."
Sighing, Ran pondered for a moment, then looked down at the short boy beside her. "Conan, do you know if X has any special meaning?"
"X?"
Conan was also puzzled when he heard this. "Does it have any special meaning?"
"He couldn't possibly know!"
Sonoko laughed from the side, "It's unlikely that a child would know about such things."
Conan: "..."
What do you mean by "a child shouldn't know"?
Is it something inappropriate for children?
"But I always feel like Conan knows something, after all, he always seems to know things that others don't."
Ran smiled, turned around, and added, "By the way, speaking of which, Ms. Jodie also said that this is a mark that only cute girls would know."
"Things that girls would know?"
Conan was even more puzzled upon hearing this, and countless possibilities flashed through his mind.
For example, X-rays, suspected X, X not suitable for children, etc.
"X... I see."
Hearing this, Ai Haibara pondered for a moment, then said meaningfully, "It is indeed something that the English teacher from America would know."
You know?
Conan turned around. "What exactly do you mean?"
"Guess for yourself."
Ai Haibara glanced at Conan and teased, "After all, a child wouldn't possibly know what X represents."
Conan: "..."
What do you mean, "Children don't know this? This is really inappropriate for children."
What was that English teacher even talking about?!
I'm a high school student!
"..."
Fujino glanced at Conan, who was being persecuted every day, and couldn't help but twitch his lips slightly.
When it comes to sharp tongue, Ai.
After silently reflecting on his feelings, Fujino looked away.
He turned around and glanced at the crowd behind him.
A figure wearing a red dress and a suit jacket was suddenly exposed in front of us.
From the very beginning, he sensed someone following him, and doing so furtively, like a stalker...
This English teacher definitely has a side hustle!
Fujino thought for a moment and decided to give this part-time FBI English teacher a little surprise, "Ms. Jodie?"
"Well?"
Jodie, who was following the two men and one woman, as well as two elementary school students, was taken aback and paused.
That's how it was discovered?
Jodie's expression was somewhat complicated. Although she knew Fujino was observant, she didn't think it was to this extent...
It must be more than ten meters away, right?
That's outrageous!
But then I thought, if even she could find out, then wouldn't Shuichi have also... yesterday?
Countless thoughts raced through her mind, but Jodie pulled herself together and stepped forward to greet them, "Hey, what a coincidence, everyone!"
"Ms. Jodie?"
Ran turned around and noticed Jodie's strange expression. She asked, "What are you doing here... I remember your apartment is in another direction, right?"
"Um..."
Fujino said with a hint of suspicion, "And just now you were acting all sneaky."
"Hey-hey!"
Jodie felt a little uncomfortable under the interrogation-like gaze, and gave an awkward laugh, saying, "Actually, I was planning to check out the nearby arcade, but I didn't expect to run into you guys!"
"Oh, so you're going to the arcade..."
Sonoko understood immediately, realizing that the other person liked going to the arcade. "As expected of Jodie- sensei."
"Yes, it would be troublesome if someone found out."
Jodie nodded repeatedly and then changed the subject. "But since we've run into each other, could you keep me company for a bit? Actually, I have something I'd like to talk to you about."
Inside a coffee shop in a nearby shopping mall.
"By the way, did you two encounter any perverts?"
Jodie sat at the dining table, pouring out her grievances. "Recently, female students at Teitan High School have been frequently harassed by strange men on trains and buses. It's causing a lot of trouble at our school too..."
"Neither of us has encountered any perverts."
Ran thought for a moment, "These days, we rarely encounter people who harass us."
"That's right, there shouldn't be many people who dare to be perverts now, right?"
Sonoko, standing to the side, crossed her arms and clenched her fist. "After all, Beika has Beika Batman now. If one of those guys shows up, he'll definitely smash all their tools!"
"Ha ha..."
Fujino laughed dryly.
He had encountered quite a few perverts on the streets at night before, but now when he sometimes sends out his Xiao Hei dog to patrol the streets and practice its control, he hasn't encountered many.
After all, with his ruthless beatings Beika Batman, few dared to let his little brother commit crimes anymore.
As for buses... he really hadn't paid attention to that. After all, Batman couldn't go to the subway to enforce the law; that place was under the jurisdiction of 'Failed Batman'.
However, compared to perverts...
He felt that the English teacher's behavior just now was more like that of a female pervert.
If it were at night, he would definitely go up and give him a good talking-to.
"Gurgle..."
Sitting opposite her, Jodie swallowed hard, unable to help but think about Shuichi Akai she had been staking out for the past few days.
When they were making the plans, they seemed to have overlooked this vigilante.
Fortunately Beika Batman didn't notice.
If we get caught, we're probably in big trouble!
"Even so, you still need to be careful."
Jodie paused for a moment, rested her chin on her hands, and tentatively said, "There's a type of person who will linger around your house, and when no one is home, they'll strike with their wickedness..."
As she spoke, she looked at the group of people in front of her and said, "These sex maniacs are many times more terrifying than ordinary thugs."
"These premeditated criminals are truly terrifying."
Fujino nodded slightly and also glanced at Jodie.
Their eyes met, Jodie felt a little awkward, so she looked away first... and then regretted it.
How did it become the one being observed?
She was clearly the one observing the reactions!
"Don't worry, that kind of guy is unlikely to show up near our house!"
Sonoko waved her hand reassuringly, "Our guards will definitely catch him right away!"
"Near my house..."
Ran hesitated for a moment before saying, "Actually, I think I did see a suspicious-looking man around here a while ago."
"Well?!"
Sonoko was surprised to hear this. "Really?"
"Um."
Ran nodded. "It was a man wearing a knitted hat. I feel like I've seen him somewhere before, but I can't remember where... I didn't hear the meaning of 'x' in class today because I was thinking about this."
"That man wearing the knitted hat..."
Fujino thought for a moment, "I saw it too."
"Fujino- Senior, you saw it too?" Ran, somewhat surprised.
"Yeah, to be honest, that guy also looked kind of familiar..."
Fujino chimed in, then added indignantly, "But if he might be a pervert, then next time we encounter him, we'll have to smash his head in!"
