"Jodie" called Haibara Ai over while jerking her chin at the sleeping Conan beside her. "Quick, put this boy in the car, then I'll take you away."
Haibara Ai instinctively walked two steps towards that side. A moment later, she came to her senses and could not help glancing at "Jodie." This person's acting was amazing.
