Ai: That's Your Mom? I Don't Believe It

Even though it was only a scene from a game, Conan still found it strange.

Especially seeing his own mother standing together with his master—it always reminded him of what happened in The Cocoon.

Damn it, that was a memory no one would ever want to recall...

Just thinking about it made Conan put on a pained expression, his heart crawling with unease. Although something like that could never happen in reality, he still felt uneasy, so he hurried forward and separated the two from between them.

Conan silently shielded his mother behind him and changed the subject. "Brother Fujino, aren't we supposed to investigate the case?!"

"If it's Brother Fujino, you'll definitely solve it quickly!"

Yukiko Kudo: "..."
