The commotion from the alley was not small, and Dr. Agasa naturally noticed it as well.
At this moment, he looked even more nervous, afraid that Miyauchi Hikage's sudden appearance would disrupt Yusaku and the others' plan.
Little did he know that Miyauchi Hikage had already set his sights on Conan.
He pretended to be curious and asked Dr. Agasa, "Dr. Agasa, is there some commotion over there?"
Dr. Agasa wiped his forehead. "It seems there is some noise. It's probably just some stray cats or dogs. Stray animals occasionally run over to this neighborhood. You don't have to worry about them; they should leave on their own in a bit."
"Then I'll go take a look too. After all, I grew up in the countryside, and my family even has a tanuki. Dealing with these stray animals is no problem for me," Miyauchi Hikage said, and then walked towards the alley.
Watching this scene, Dr. Agasa was sweating with anxiety. Fortunately, Kudo Yukiko in the alley had already successfully knocked out her son.
Hearing the conversation between Dr. Agasa and another young man, she also hurriedly brought her skills as an actress into full play.
After confirming that her son had passed out, she hurriedly put on a panicked look and walked out of the alley, holding Conan.
After seeing Dr. Agasa, she went up to his side and said anxiously, "Dr. Agasa, it's a good thing you're back. My son Conan has a very bad cold. Can you drive me and Conan to the hospital?"
Although Dr. Agasa was not good at acting, he could only bite the bullet and go along with it. "Oh, oh, I see. I'll go get the car right now."
He turned his head to look at Miyauchi Hikage and, somewhat deliberately, gave him an explanation.
"This is Conan's mother, Edogawa..."
Seeing that he seemed to have forgotten his lines, Kudo Yukiko hurriedly took over, and at the same time, signaled for Dr. Agasa to hurry up and go, leaving this place for her to handle.
"I am Edogawa Fumiyo. You must be the new neighbor who just moved in, right? Thank you for taking care of my Conan before."
She continued to quickly explain her identity.
Something about working abroad, and coming back this time to take Conan with her.
Conan wanted to say goodbye to Dr. Agasa before leaving, but he didn't expect his cold to be so severe that his body couldn't hold up before he even reached Dr. Agasa's house.
"It's all my fault as a mother. I usually haven't taken much care of him. I didn't even notice he was so seriously ill," Kudo Yukiko gradually got addicted to her acting, already trying to shape herself into a failed but still trying-hard-to-start-over mother in front of this neighbor, Miyauchi Hikage.
Looking at the tears glistening in her eyes, what else could Miyauchi Hikage say?
As expected of a former veteran actress. If I hadn't read the script, I would have really believed it.
Dealing with Kudo Yukiko indeed consumed a lot of Miyauchi Hikage's brain cells. Fortunately, Dr. Agasa was nimble enough and quickly drove his Volkswagen Beetle out of the garage.
Seeing that Miyauchi Hikage did not show a suspicious look, Kudo Yukiko left a line of "see you again when there's a chance" and then hurriedly got into Dr. Agasa's car with Conan and left.
Incidentally, she also took with her a tiny fragment that had split off from Yellow Temperance.
The part of Yellow Temperance that was split off could leave the main body by a relatively large distance, and as long as it did not exceed ten kilometers, Miyauchi Hikage could get it back.
It was just that the split-off part had no consciousness and would quickly lose its ability to move and eventually disappear without replenishing organic matter.
However, he didn't have to worry about not getting replenishment for the time being. To disguise herself as a middle-aged, obese woman, Kudo Yukiko had stuffed a lot of cotton and fabric on her body.
The speed at which Yellow Temperance devoured these substances was very slow. That tiny fragment was just about enough to maintain its own survival, so there was no need to worry about Kudo Yukiko's life.
Originally, Miyauchi Hikage was a little worried that Dr. Agasa and the others would drive too far, and at that time, he would have to call Dr. Agasa and have him say his name to figure out their location.
But fortunately, in the end, they stopped at a place about six or seven kilometers away from his house.
After that, the spell was sensed several more times from that place. It seemed they were discussing him, their new neighbor.
After confirming the location, Miyauchi Hikage was no longer in a hurry.
He slowly finished his bento, and then unhurriedly completed today's diary.
There was nothing much to say about the content of today's diary. It was just to let Kuroneko experience a little of what Kasumigaoka Utaha usually felt.
After all, Kuroneko's literary level...
was purely the self-indulgent writing of a chuunibyou girl.
Instead of wanting to rely on becoming a light novel author to earn money to support her family, it would be more practical for her to get a VTuber avatar and become a game streamer.
Kuroneko's gaming skills were already at a professional level. Now, with the assistance of Hamon, she would probably be suspected of cheating.
In addition, she always had the habit of using the weakest characters when playing games. This gimmick was enough for her to make a successful stream. Not to mention making a fortune, but it was much more reliable than writing light novels.
After quickly writing today's diary, Miyauchi Hikage, sensing the spell's feedback pouring in from all directions in a short period of time, made some more preparations. When the clock struck ten, he went out with Jerry.
It was already very late at this point, and there were basically no pedestrians on the road.
Miyauchi Hikage dodged the street surveillance all the way, and at the same time, changed his appearance and body shape in inconspicuous places with Yellow Temperance.
On the other hand, it was Jerry's first time being so far from home. Sitting in Miyauchi Hikage's pocket, he constantly poked his head out, observing the situation outside.
When he was only a hundred meters or so away from Conan's current location, his steps gradually slowed down.
The Yellow Temperance under his feet extended outwards. After confirming the surrounding situation, he continued to approach.
"It seems Conan has already woken up and is now looking for a chance to cut the ropes on his body," Miyauchi Hikage had Yellow Temperance go over and take a look from a distance, and saw Conan tied up and casually thrown on the dusty floor.
Although he was motionless, he was clearly already awake.
It had to be said that in order to make their son recognize the situation and leave Japan with them, it was really a great effort for the Kudo couple to have gone this far.
It was just a pity that because of the plot, it was impossible for Conan to leave the Mouri Detective Agency.
So the manifestation in the manga was that Conan would come up with a "I'll solve my own problems," and then say in his heart that he couldn't leave Japan for Ran's sake.
This part didn't seem like much when I first watched it, but after so many years, with Ran always being on the sidelines of the main plot and her role almost catching up to that of a passerby, looking at this part again felt a bit subtle.
So you don't plan to tell Ran your identity. Why on earth are you staying by her side? Is it just to take a bath with your big sister Ran?
After retorting a few sentences in his mind, Miyauchi Hikage controlled Yellow Temperance and used the ripple to make the Kudo couple, who were pretending to be asleep on the sofa outside the room, fall into a real sleep.
Immediately after, he changed his appearance to that of Kudo Shinichi and walked into the room where Conan was being held.
Thanks to the online media and Kudo Shinichi's showy personality, you could find a large pile of news from his TV interviews with a casual search online.
Looking at Conan, who was lying on the ground with his eyes closed, pretending to be asleep, Miyauchi Hikage squatted down and said softly to him in Kudo Shinichi's voice.
"Conan, open your eyes. I am Kudo Shinichi."
