Stay Away From Gambling, Enjoy a Happy Life (Part 3 of 3, Part 4 of 4)

Professor Agasa stared in a daze, looking back at the little kids behind him who were watching the drama unfold with deadpan expressions.

Though misunderstood as being the grandfather of these children, he felt quite relieved.

Yet why did he inexplicably feel a bit irritated?

However, since the other party didn't respond to that either.

Viewed this way, the other person probably wasn't the one he was looking for.

Professor Agasa turned back, echoing, "Indeed a very cute group of kids."

"Especially that little chubby boy, he looks just like you."

Fusae pulled back her gaze, looking at Agasa, and chuckled playfully, "Compared to back then, you've put on quite a bit of weight... just like that little younger sister said."

"Huh?"

Professor Agasa let out a surprised sound, "Could you be... Fusae?"

Fusae crossed her arms over her chest, her flushed cheeks carrying a hint of aggrieved resentment as she said, "So forty years have passed, why did it take you so long to come?"

"This... this well!"

Professor Agasa's face flushed red as he stammered, "I... I also... those weren't me..."

The two people whose combined ages totaled a hundred years stood there, stammering awkward pleasantries.

As for Fujino, he brought Ai Haibara around the back, arriving behind the group of kids.

Ai Haibara complained, "You guys are only just now cracking the code?"

The kids turned back in surprise, and Ayumi couldn't help asking, "Brother Fujino, Ai, why are you guys here?"

"We came this morning."

Ai Haibara explained flatly, "Fujino solved the code the very first time he saw it."

As she spoke, she shot a deep glance toward Conan, "I didn't expect you guys to take until now to crack it. We've been waiting here all day."

Conan: "...?"

No, I worked myself to death
