Qin Zhibo pushed Akai Shuichi's wheelchair into the yard behind the large iron gate of Kudo's house.

It is said that rich people like to build steps at the door of their houses. There are steps at the door of Kudo's house, unlike Dr. Agasa's house, which is just a threshold.

Just when Qin Zhibo was about to lift Akai Shuichi and his wheelchair up the steps, Akai Shuichi stood up directly from the wheelchair.

He moved slowly, walked up the steps alone, and stared blankly at the door of Kudo's house.

Qin Zhibo saw that Akai Shuichi could move on his own, so he went back to his car to get the mouse cage.

Akai Shuichi here looked around for a few seconds. After memorizing the environment, he gently pushed open the ajar door of the mansion.

On both sides of the spacious entrance, there are several large plastic bags containing daily necessities and ingredients, with a pair of sneakers in the middle.

The shoe cabinet next to it was also opened, with a large number of slippers neatly stacked inside.

Akai Shuichi looked inside. Most of the corridors in the house were covered with burgundy carpets. The decoration was high-end, and the level of luxury was evident.

At this time, Toru Amuro, who was also exploring the new map, came out of a room and happened to see Shuichi Akai standing at the door.

"who are you looking for?"

Toru Amuro's tone paused, and he looked at the man in front of him, feeling both strange and familiar in his heart.

But after he quickly reviewed the memories in his mind, he determined that he did not recognize the bespectacled man in front of him.

I guess they are here to find the original owner of this house?

Akai Shuichi stood there, squinting his eyes slightly, but did not answer Toru Amuro's question.

Toru Amuro could only walk over and explain with a smile: "I am only staying here temporarily. If you want to find the original owner of this house, I can help you contact..."

"Can you please tell me your name and relationship with the owner?"

Toru Amuro tried to be polite and considerate, but the man with glasses still didn't reply.

A lost person?

It doesn't look like...

After a brief inspection just now, it was found that the mansion was very clean. Although there were no signs of habitation, there were signs of cleaning.

Could it be the housekeeping staff who come regularly to clean the house?

While Toru Amuro was brainstorming, Qin Zhibo came in carrying a rat cage and wheelchair.

"Eh?"

Amuro Toru was stunned for a moment.

Qin Zhibo was also stunned for a moment, looked at Akai Shuichi who was blocking the door, and asked: "Why don't you go in?"

"Go in?" Amuro Toru looked confused.

After Qin Zhibo's explanation, Toru Amuro realized that the strange yet familiar man with glasses in front of him was Shuichi Akai, but he was Shuichi Akai after a disguise.

"Who do I think I am..."

Toru Amuro walked closer to Akai Shuichi and looked at it carefully. This human skin mask was indeed flawless, and there were no flaws at all when viewed up close.

The last time he used the organization to assassinate Yasuki Domon and in turn arrested Gin, Qin Zhibo invited a mysterious foreign aid to play the role of Yasuki Domon who was assassinated.

Toru Amuro guessed that the exquisite human skin mask in front of him was still made by that mysterious man.

If it hadn't been for Qin Zhibo, it would have been impossible to invite Belmod. He would have suspected that this person was Belmod.

"From now on, his identity will be Subaru Okiya. He is a graduate student at Toto University. He is temporarily injured and recuperating. He is your cousin..."

Hearing the word "cousin" mentioned by Qin Zhibo, Toru Amuro glared, feeling a little unable to accept it.

Toru Amuro: "Why is he the older brother?"

Qin Zhibo: "He is 32 years old this year. How old are you?"

Toru Amuro fell silent.

…

The next time, Toru Amuro was in the kitchen preparing to make curry.

Akai Shuichi wandered around the house for a while, then sat back in the wheelchair and continued to wander around the room.

I have to say that the Kudo family is quite big.

In the parallel world before, Qin Zhibo had no time and no mood to wander around Kudo's house, and he didn't want to leave any traces of intrusion.

Now, taking this opportunity, we can finally see how arrogant the Kudo family really is.

In addition to the high-end classical decoration, there are paintings decorated with golden frames hanging on the walls. Considering Kudo Yusaku's status in today's world of mystery literature, it should not be a street stall.

But for Kudo and his son, the most valuable thing in this house is probably the study.

On the right side of the house is a two-story study room in the shape of a canary cage. Countless books are displayed in the study room, including mystery novels and case materials, as well as manuscripts of old novels.

In the middle of the study room is a desk with a big-ass computer on it.

Qin Zhibo pushed the wheelchair and took Akai Shuichi around the house, then returned to the living room.

In the living room, he handed the mouse cage to Akai Shuichi.

"You might get bored staying here, so I'll give you a pet to keep..."

"Although this is just a guinea pig used in experiments, it is quite spiritual. It even saved my life before."

"And, to a certain extent, you should be considered the same kind..."

"Because this mouse died before and is now resurrected."

Akai Shuichi was looking at the white mouse in the cage with squinted eyes. Hearing Qin Zhibo say that this mouse also came back from the dead, Akai Shuichi turned to look at Qin Zhibo in surprise.

When Qin Zhibo cast a confirming look, Akai Shuichi was surprised for a moment and turned to observe the white mouse again.

After a while, he opened the mouse cage and reached out to take out the white mouse.

The white mouse was a little resistant to this new owner at first, and its head twisted restlessly.

But with the gentle caressing of Akai Shuichi's fingers, the mouse gradually settled down and could now stay safely in Akai Shuichi's palm.

"Nice pet."

"Thank you……"

The corners of Akai Shuichi's mouth rose slightly. Although it was not obvious, it was considered a smile.

But then, he asked another profound question.

"Do you think this mouse also lost its previous memory?"

Qin Zhibo frowned. He didn't expect Akai Shuichi to ask this question.

After pondering for a few seconds, he replied: "Maybe, but this can be regarded as indirectly changing its future life..."

"Otherwise, it is probably being injected with drugs with unknown side effects in an unknown laboratory, and has become a tool for observation in an incubator, right?"

If Qin Zhibo's words refer to anything, he is not only talking about mice, but also hints at Akai Shuichi's future life.

Akai Shuichi glanced at Qin Zhibo silently, and after a few seconds, he continued to pay attention to the white mouse.

Qin Zhibo: Don’t drink chicken soup for the soul...

…

When it was still 10 minutes before 5:30, the doorbell rang.

Toru Amuro went to open the door, and outside the door, Dr. Agasa and the young detective team came to visit.

"Please come in."

Toru Amuro quickly assumed his identity and assumed the role of master with a smile.

When the three little ones got permission, they immediately took off their shoes and ran into the house without even having time to put on their slippers.

"Wow! It's so big!"

“It turns out it’s so beautiful inside!”

The three little ones looked at everything with curious eyes as if they had never seen the world before.

In fact, it is normal for the three little ones to be shocked. When the three of them were looking for a haunted house adventure in Yoneka Town, they set their sights on this Kudo house that had not been inhabited for a long time.

However, when this project was submitted to Conan for approval, Conan seriously rejected it.

The reason is simple. This is Conan's own home, and he can't just watch the naughty children go in and cause trouble.

The current situation can only be regarded as the city gate being lost.

But fortunately, with Dr. Ali and other adults here, the three little ones will not make too many mistakes.

Dr. Ali stood in the entrance hall, looking around with his hands behind his back, a trace of nostalgia flashing in his eyes.

He has known the owner of this house longer than both Conan and Yukiko.

When Kudo Yusaku was still a little-known author, the two were very good friends, providing comfort and help to each other.

He missed the past for a moment, and then remembered that according to what Conan said, there was another patient staying here this time. In order not to be rude, he must ask about it.
