Conan froze, then immediately felt a little pleasantly surprised.
A teammate had fallen from the sky who was decent in every way except personality, and Conan's courage instantly swelled by quite a lot.
However, this concerned the lives of many children, so he ultimately did not act too recklessly. He briefly worked out a tactic. "The side door is pretty hidden. How about we go in from there?"
Jiang Xia glanced at the Mist Tengu flying back from the villa and nodded.
The little boy with the scarf looked highly in favor of this route, and Conan immediately felt even more reassured. Before setting out, he turned his head to Tsuburaya Mitsuhiko again and said, "The two of us will find a way to sneak inside and use the villains' phone to call the police. You find somewhere hidden outside and hide properly. Don't expose yourself."
Tsuburaya Mitsuhiko looked at the pitch-black sky and the spreading heavy fog behind him, then at the villa in front of him that was hiding many vicious villains. For a moment, he wished he could turn himself into a sheet of paper and wedge himself right in the middle, choosing neither side.
Seeing him standing stiffly, Conan misunderstood what he meant and tried to persuade him. "This isn't asking you to run away. It's that we can't put all our eggs in one basket. If we get caught after infiltrating, then you'll be our last remaining hope!"
Tsuburaya Mitsuhiko: "!"
That sounded pretty impressive.
Although he was still afraid, now that it had been put that way, his wavering heart immediately made a decision. Tsuburaya Mitsuhiko clenched his fist and nodded. "Okay. You have to come back alive!"
Then he wiped away his tears, turned his head, and resolutely charged into the nearby bushes.
