Sato Miwako stopped obsessing over the Phantom Thieves after Inspector Megure assigned her a missing-person case. Bai Ye arranged for Haibara Ai to start elementary school, while her search for her sister’s soul continued and Sadako remained stuck working at the Odd Jobs Shop.

• Miyamoto Yumi criticized Inspector Megure behind his back, and he overheard her before explaining that he had come to take Sato Miwako on an assignment.

• Haibara Ai asked about her sister’s soul, and Bai Ye said Sadako was searching for it through her ghost-world connections.

• Bai Ye told Sadako to stay at the Agency during the day and visit her ghost sisters at night, with Miko set to switch shifts with her.

• Bai Ye suggested that the coroner examine the body and pointed to the librarian's box as a possible clue to the murder.
• The librarian turned pale as Bai Ye suggested that the victim had discovered his secret, while Conan suspected the librarian but still lacked direct evidence.

After a newspaper report called him a High School Detective, Conan considered whether Bai Ye might help him investigate the Black Organization and restore his body.

• Bai Ye revealed that the curator had hidden the corpse above the elevator, and the curator confessed that he had killed the victim to protect his secret.
• Bai Ye dismissed Conan’s praise of his deduction and told Inspector Megure that police should normally handle cases.

• Reporters surrounded Bai Ye, and a newspaper later featured him as a High School Detective, disappointing Ran, who had hoped for news of Shinichi.
• Conan told Mori Kogoro that Bai Ye had solved the case immediately, then considered asking him to investigate the Black Organization and help with his body.

Bai Ye spoke with Eriri, Kasumigaoka Utaha, and Katou Megumi about his growing notoriety as a Phantom Thief and Famous Detective, then returned to the Agency and caught Sadako admitting she had skipped work. He invited Miko to live at the Agency, and Haibara Ai also asked to move in as Bai Ye planned to renovate it.

• Kasumigaoka Utaha called Bai Ye after seeing his photograph in the newspaper, and Bai Ye told her and Katou Megumi he might keep appearing as a Famous Detective because he enjoyed teasing the people trying to catch him.
• Bai Ye told Haibara Ai he wanted to hire more employees for the Odd Jobs Shop, ideally Sadako and her ghost sisters, before he headed home with her.
• Takemoto Ann recognized Bai Ye in the newspaper and decided to find him and persuade him to let her join the Phantom Thieves.
• Sadako worried that Miko would report her for skipping work, but Miko promised she would not tell Bai Ye; when Bai Ye returned, Sadako mistakenly admitted her absence after assuming Miko had already told him.
• Bai Ye forgave Sadako and asked Miko to live at the Agency after he renovated it; Miko agreed, and Haibara Ai asked to move in as well.

Bai Ye arranged for Haibara Ai to stay at the Agency and left for home, where he found the wounded dragon Tohru in the woods. He pulled the Holy Sword from her body and recruited her to work for him, taking her home and telling her to wait there while he went to school.

• Tohru asked to live with Bai Ye, and he let her stay temporarily, told her to wait for clothes, and said he would introduce her to the Agency after school.

Bai Ye explained why he had chosen Tomodachi Elementary School for Haibara Ai and clarified that he was interested in her research skills, not dependent on APTX4869 for immortality. He persuaded her to avoid getting involved with the Black Organization and focus on school and her research.

• Haibara Ai asked whether Bai Ye was sending her to Beika Elementary School, but he said he had enrolled her at nearby Tomodachi Elementary School.
• Bai Ye challenged Haibara Ai's assumption that APTX4869 could grant immortality and told her he was interested in the drug without relying on it for a long life.
• Haibara Ai admitted she wanted to return to her original age and continue researching APTX4869, possibly using test subjects.
• Bai Ye warned Haibara Ai that getting close to Conan would draw her into the dangerous conflict with the Black Organization, which he said the police and undercover agents could handle.
• Haibara Ai accepted that she should attend school and avoid pressuring Bai Ye to fight the Black Organization, while Bai Ye remained relieved that she would stay away from Conan.

Haibara Ai transferred into Kinomoto Sakura’s class and quickly attracted her classmates’ attention, while Bai Ye explained his frequent absences to Shizuka Hiratsuka by revealing his detective and odd-jobs business.

• Bai Ye told Haibara Ai to go to school by herself the next day, then forgot and was woken by her angry phone call.

Bai Ye realized that the Time Card had reset the day and learned that Sakura could remember the previous cycle too. He went to the clock tower to claim the card, where Sakura and Tomoyo had already failed to catch it.

• Bai Ye noticed the date had returned to Wednesday and concluded that the Time Card had rewound time, while Haibara Ai initially doubted him.
• At school, Sakura recognized the repeated events, and she and Haibara worked out that they had both experienced the previous day.
• Bai Ye repeated the day’s events, then told Sakura that he would compete with her for the Time Card and refused Tohru and Sadako’s offers to help.
• At the clock tower late that night, Sakura and Tomoyo repeatedly failed to approach the Time Card because it rewound time by half an hour.
• Bai Ye arrived and found Sakura exhausted, while Kero doubted that he could capture the card either.

Bai Ye used the Shield Card’s protection from time reversal to defeat the Time Card, which Sakura sealed before it chose Bai Ye as its holder. After returning home, Bai Ye found Tohru waiting and saying that something had been following her.

• Bai Ye led Sakura, Kero, and Tomoyo to the clock tower, where Sakura explained that the Time Card noticed approaching people and reversed time.

• Bai Ye returned home, where Tohru said something had been following her.

Bai Ye and Tohru discussed the Time Card before Kanna appeared, demanding that Tohru return with her. After Kanna attacked Bai Ye and collapsed from hunger, he and Tohru persuaded her to stay with them, where she could have food, lodging, and friends.

• Tohru told Bai Ye she had felt someone following her, and he studied the Time Card while asking whether her world had ways to copy or seal powers.
• The next morning, Kanna came to Bai Ye's home and demanded that he give Tohru back, accusing him of using his looks and other means to keep her.

• Kanna charged at Bai Ye, but she was too hungry to keep fighting, so Tohru went to cook for her.
• Bai Ye and Tohru offered Kanna food, lodging, and the chance to make friends, and Kanna began to consider staying.

Bai Ye welcomed Kanna into his home and introduced her to Haibara Ai at the Agency, where the two became friends. Miko then brought Bai Ye the Agency’s first commission: guarding a valuable gem targeted by Kaito Kid and Cat’s Eye, and Bai Ye accepted; as he prepared to leave Tohru and Sadako behind, Vermouth called him about a job.

• Bai Ye brought Kanna to the Agency, where Haibara Ai learned she was a Dragon and reluctantly agreed to be her friend.

• Bai Ye refused to let Tohru accompany him to the job, and Sadako decided not to ask to go either.
• Bai Ye answered Vermouth’s call, and she asked whether he was interested in a job.

• Bai Ye rejected Vermouth’s offer to steal the gemstone, and Gin approved her plan to try stealing it herself while Vodka continued investigating the Phantom Thieves.

• Kogoro Akechi planned to attend the showdown, which drew public attention as the detective teams and the thieves prepared to contest the gemstone.
• Suzuki Jirokichi welcomed the increased publicity and planned to use the event to catch Kaito Kid and Cat’s Eye and boast to the media.

Sonoko and her companions gathered at Suzuki Jirokichi’s venue to protect a jewel from Kaito Kid, with Mori Kogoro, Hakuba Saguru, and Bai Ye joining the effort. Sonoko decided to pursue Bai Ye, while the detectives prepared to discuss the jewel and the coming theft.
