Hearing this, Conan, who was completely unexpected, couldn't help shouting in surprise:
"How could she know? And if she knew, why didn't she expose me?"
"That's where we feel like things are weird."
Regarding this, Gao Yuan also said confused.
"It's possible that she wants to wait for you to explain it to her in person."
Xiao Ai, on the other hand, said with a guess.
"Well, that makes sense."
Listening to this seemingly familiar rhetoric, Gao Yuan couldn't help but nodded with some certainty.
"That……"
Now Conan, who was completely at a loss because he heard that Xiaolan might have known his true identity, didn't know what to do for a while——
In particular, Gao Yuan and Xiao Ai both believed that Xiao Lan already knew their true identity, and they had not noticed it at all.
"Xiaolan...have you really noticed my true identity?"
Still a little unsure, Conan asked.
"If I have to say it, it's just our feeling."
In this regard, Xiao Ai did not hide anything and told Gao Yuan that she and Gao Yuan had the same views on the matter:
"Originally, Xiaolan would always stop you every time you went after the clues of the case alone as Conan, right? But yesterday, because President Suzuki was disguised, when you went to chase the Kaitou Kidd, then
Under such circumstances, Xiaolan looked at your behavior and did not stop it. Even after you left for a short period of time, she did not worry about looking for you. This is not like Xiaolan's usual behavior. "
Gao Yuan said:
"Furthermore, I feel like the way Xiaolan looks at you... is the same as the way she looked at you when you were still Shinichi and you went to investigate alone."
"I think so too. When I saw you chasing the Phantom Thief, the expression on the girl's face when she looked at you was definitely not looking at a child."
Xiao Ai echoed.
"But……"
Listening to what Gao Yuan and Xiao Ai said, Conan still couldn't believe it:
"Is there any evidence for this? I don't think I have done anything before that could make Xiaolan doubt my identity. Even what you said... is not direct evidence, right?"
Hearing this, Gao Yuan and Xiao Ai looked at each other, and then had to admit:
"really."
Saying this, Xiao Ai added:
"We haven't figured out why the girl from the office discovered your identity for no reason. But at least, she hasn't said anything now, so things can still turn around..."
"for example?"
Listening to Xiao Ai's tone, Conan suddenly seemed a little concerned and said:
"Let me be like Kudo Shinichi again! Then let Xiaolan know that Conan is just Conan!"
Having said that, Conan can immediately think of the "turning point" mentioned by Xiao Ai, which is to let Kudo Shinichi reappear in front of Xiao Lan like before, letting Xiao Lan know that Conan cannot be Kudo Shinichi.
.
In this way, after hearing the intention of Conan's words, Xiao Ai could not help but roll her eyes at Conan, then turned away and said coldly:
"Don't forget, the previous antidote is no longer effective on you. How can it be possible for you to recover in this case?"
——Although a new antidote has been released, I still can’t give it to you right now...
With this thought in mind, Xiao Ai decisively rejected Conan's idea.
"ah?"
Conan's mood suddenly dropped, and he seemed to have almost forgotten about this, and couldn't help but sigh:
"Then what else can be regarded as a 'turning point'? This is not the first time that Xiaolan has been suspected. If there is no more concrete evidence that can convince Xiaolan, what should I do about my identity!"
"Don't worry yet, Conan."
But in this regard, Gao Yuan, who had taken this matter seriously yesterday, tried to persuade Conan not to worry:
"At least Xiaolan hasn't said anything now? And so far, I haven't seen Xiaolan do anything to prove that you are Kudo Shinichi, so I think things are not that bad. Besides, more
The main thing is that what you just said actually makes sense——
"Don't you think you have done anything before that may make Xiaolan doubt your identity? So what is the reason that makes Xiaolan doubt your identity? I think we need to figure this out first.
We can prescribe the right medicine to deal with this matter. Otherwise, anything you do now may make Xiaolan even more suspicious of you."
In this way, Gao Yuan first clarified the most important situation——
That is, why did Xiaolan suspect Conan?
"That's true..."
In response, Conan couldn't help but nodded, feeling that this made sense.
Then Xiao Ai couldn't help but ask:
"Why don't you think about it, when did the girl in that office start to change her attitude towards you?"
"when?"
Just as he was about to think about it carefully, Conan immediately shook his head, waved his hands helplessly and said:
"How do I know this! Has Xiaolan's attitude towards me changed? You guys told me this, I never noticed it before..."
"well……"
Hearing this, Xiao Ai waved his hands with some understanding and sighed:
"It seems that you don't care at all... But that's right. Every time you encounter an incident, you just forget about it. How can you pay attention to the people around you?"
In this way, after hearing the slightly sarcastic tone in Xiao Ai's words, Conan looked slightly embarrassed, gave Xiao Ai a helpless and depressed look, and complained softly:
"I know how to make sarcastic remarks..."
"Is not it?"
In response to this, Xiao Ai retorted somewhat unwillingly, folded her hands in front of her, and said coldly:
"Every time I encounter an incident, I rush to the front. As a child, it's not normal, right? Maybe at that time, the girl in the office noticed something because of this?"
As soon as this statement came out, Conan didn't know what to say, and then he couldn't help but muttered:
"If it's because of this, you shouldn't be suspicious now, right? Xiaolan had obviously called me to talk about Conan before, so at least she had no suspicion at that time..."
"I called you before? Was it the one where you used the identity of Kudo Shinichi?"
Hearing this, Gao Yuan seemed to be thinking about something and couldn't help but ask.
"Yes, Xiaolan seemed to have heard something after returning from the Twin Towers skyscraper for the first time..."
Thinking of this, Conan seemed to realize something as he spoke, and couldn't help but be surprised:
"Is it possible? Xiaolan actually changed her eyes on me because she heard the rumors about those children saying that 'Conan likes her'? In fact, it's not because Xiaolan noticed my identity!"
It's a bit of a guess, Conan said excitedly.
"Perhaps it's because after knowing that a child likes her, I paid special attention to you, and then I noticed the similarities between you and Kudo Shinichi!"
Xiao Ai followed closely and said.
For a moment, Conan was speechless——
"In short, guessing like this is not an option. We still have to think of a way to deal with it. What should we do if Xiaolan really notices that you are Kudo Shinichi!"
Finally, Gao Yuan said:
“But at least for now, I think it’s better to stay the same in response to all changes.” ()
