Conan Drinks Baijiu; Kimie Tsujimura Makes a Request

Making a phone call would have been one thing.

The problem was that Ran couldn't keep a secret!

See?

A random stranger showed up, and Ran immediately told him about the fact that she had just spoken with him on the phone!

What if this stranger was from the Black Organization?

Wouldn't that expose him right away!?

"If someone from the Black Organization really comes to investigate me in the future,

all they have to do is ask Ran.

Ran would definitely sell me out!

No.

I'll find an excuse to leave later.

Then I'll call Ran again.

And tell her to keep it a secret!

No matter who comes asking about me,

she has to say she doesn't know!

And as for this dark-skinned guy...

I need to figure out who he is.

Then I'll make him keep quiet!"

Just as Conan was letting his imagination run wild,

the dark-skinned guy suddenly spoke again.

"Everyone says you're Kudo's woman. Looks like it's true!"

"Woman!?"

Ran froze.

"Huh?"

Conan was stunned too.

"Who said that!?"

"Of course, your good friend Sonoko said it~

She said that since Kudo hadn't gone to school, he must be hiding here with you!

Looks like she was right, huh?"

"That woman, Sonoko!"

Conan and Ran cursed her inwardly at the same time.

"Tell me!

What exactly did Kudo say when he called?"

"Nothing much. He talked to me about a detective novel he'd read recently~

It was very interesting.

Then there was something about the major leagues.

And he asked how my classmates at school were doing.

Whether anything had happened."

Ran narrowed her eyes and honestly told him everything.

Conan, standing nearby, grew terribly anxious when he heard that.

He felt that Ran was far too honest!

"What about you?"

"About me?"

Ran
