Conan: Begins to collaborate with Miss Bayonetta and become famous

Chapter 750: Getting ready for vacation!

One day before the winter vacation.

Conan, Ayumi Yoshida, Genta Kojima, and Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya are watching TV at Dr. Agasa's house. At this time, the show being broadcasted via satellite is "Kamen Rider: The Movie".

In the movie, as the plot is about to reach its climax, the Kamen Rider standing on the snowy field is surrounded.

The enemy was approaching him step by step. The children sitting on the sofa in the living room were staring at the TV screen with a look of complete fascination.

"Oh, sky of lightning and thunder... inject power into the blade in my heart!" Kamen Rider raised his right hand and pointed at the sky, and then thunder fell and pierced through his whole body.

In an instant, Kamen Rider's aura was fully revealed, his cape flying up and down, and sparks flying from his protruding fists.

“Here we go! The ultimate move!!”

"Masked——Thunder God Fist!!"

At the moment when Kamen Rider raised his fist and was about to release his ultimate move——

Suddenly, the TV picture and sound became chaotic, and then the screen went dark, and a message appeared saying "No signal, please confirm the antenna settings and adjustments."

"Hey?! What's going on?!"

"We were about to reach the most exciting part, why did the picture disappear?"

The children leaned forward with puzzled looks on their faces, while Conan picked up the remote and pressed a button.

When the screen switched to terrestrial digital broadcast, a weather forecaster appeared, giving a weather forecast.

"The terrestrial wave is watchable."

"No way." Huibara murmured softly while standing behind the sofa.

At this time, Mitsuhiko took out his detective badge and started calling Dr. Agasa who was in the yard.

"Doctor! Please answer when you hear me! Doctor!"

After learning that the television could no longer broadcast via satellite, Dr. Agasa began to inspect the parabolic antenna set up in the yard.

Despite adjusting the antenna left and right and up and down, the TV picture was still not restored.

"Well... no, it may be a problem with the parabolic antenna..." The doctor wiped the sweat from his forehead.

Standing in front of the TV with a detective badge in her hand, Huihara looked at Genta and the others and said, "It looks like we won't be able to broadcast via satellite today."

"No way..."

“Seeing the wonderful place!”

"Really? Why can't I watch it on satellite TV when I can watch it on regular TV?"

Ayumi and Mitsuhiko looked disappointed, and Genta on the side clenched his fists in unwillingness.

"That's because..." Conan was about to explain to the children.

"Let me explain!" After hearing Dr. Agasa say this through the detective badge, everyone came to the yard.

An extra-large parabolic antenna is set up in a spacious courtyard surrounded by high walls.

Dr. Agasa handed the remote control for operating the antenna to Yuanta: "Satellite broadcasting uses a parabolic antenna to receive radio waves."

"So where do the radio waves come from?" Mitsuhiko said proudly beside Ayumi who looked confused: "It comes from the universe, am I right, Doctor?"

"Yes, it comes from the universe!" said the doctor.

"Hey - that's amazing." Yuan Tai agreed with a disinterested look. He was casually operating the parabolic antenna with the remote control in his hand.

"Oh, I almost forgot." Dr. Agasa took out a brochure from the pocket of his white coat.

"Look, what is this?" Mitsuhiko pointed.

What Professor Agasa showed Conan and the others was an observatory brochure with a photo of a huge parabolic antenna.

"'National Astronomical Observatory Nobeyama'? It's an observatory located in Nagano." Conan said.

"My junior from college is a teacher here. He invited me over to visit. Although it's a bit sudden, how about we go together next Monday? It will be winter vacation then, and if there are more than five people in a group, we can also experience the 'astronomical observation tour'." said the doctor.

"Wow~" The children cheered in surprise, but Conan scratched his head and refused: "Sorry, I can't go that day."

"Hey--! Why?" Ayumi asked while hugging Haibara.

"There's a football game that day and I've got the tickets," Conan said.

"Hey, who are you going with?" Huibara asked.

Conan immediately looked away in embarrassment, his cheeks turning red: "With... Xiaolan...sister..."

"That can't be helped." Huiyuan seemed to accept it, but Ayumi seemed a little dissatisfied: "If there are not five of us, we can't experience the observation trip!

"It doesn't matter. With me as the team leader, it's enough." Dr. Agasa raised five fingers to signal.

"Very good--!!"

The children were so delighted that they jumped up on the spot.

"yeah!"

"Astronomical observation! Astronomical observation!"

"You can eat tempura rice bowl now--!"

Looking at the children who were so excited that they were dancing, Conan couldn't help but smile.

Meanwhile, Gray Principle on the side looked at Conan with a complicated expression.

That night, inside the Maori Detective Agency.

Lan, who was cooking in the kitchen, opened the door curtain and shouted to Kogoro in the living room: "Dad, dinner will be ready soon..."

At this time, Kogoro was sleeping soundly on a low table piled with sake bottles and glasses.

"Really? How many times do I have to tell you to stop drinking before dinner? Don't even turn off the TV!"

The news was playing on the TV that was not turned off.

The subtitles "Deliberation of the 'Criminal Procedure Law Amendment Bill' is stalled" appeared on the screen, and the female announcer was reporting on the scandal of a member of the House of Representatives.

"Because of the scandal, the Congress has been stalled, and the review of the previously proposed 'Criminal Procedure Law Amendment Bill' has also been completely stopped. Once this bill is approved, the scope of 'judicial transactions', which have only been applicable to organized crime and drug and firearm crimes, will be further expanded, and the 'Witness Protection Program' will also be launched..."

"Hey, where's the remote control?" The TV remote control that should have been placed on the coffee table was missing, and Lan was about to look for it under the table.

"I'm back~" Conan returned from Dr. Agasa's house.

"Ah, Conan, have you seen the TV remote control?" Lan just turned around to ask Conan, and heard the sound of something overflowing from the pot in the kitchen: "My pot! Sorry, please help me find the remote control!"

"Okay." Conan answered, then started looking for the remote control while squinting at the TV screen.

However, no matter how hard he looked, he couldn't find the remote control. Because it was already dinner time, Conan could only install the app on Kogoro's phone and use the phone as a remote control temporarily.

After a while.

"Huh~ I'm full." Kogoro, who had finished the hot pot for dinner, patted his bulging belly with satisfaction. He held a toothpick in his mouth and used his mobile phone, which temporarily replaced the remote control, to start changing channels on the TV. "However, this is really convenient! I didn't expect that even mobile phones can replace remote controls nowadays!"

The singing program was playing a new song by Yoko Okino, whom Kogoro liked very much. Even Kogoro's mobile phone wallpaper was a photo of Yoko Okino.

"In this case, I can just use my phone! I don't need a remote control at all, hahaha!"

Seeing Kogoro laughing, Conan frowned: "That's definitely not possible. This is just a temporary replacement using the app. It's better to find the remote control quickly."

At this moment, the phone at home suddenly rang. Lan, who was about to clean up the dishes, reached out and picked up the receiver on the shelf.

"Look, Sister Xiaolan is angry." Conan reminded in a low voice.

Kogoro replied nonchalantly: "Hmph, who cares about her?"

After answering the phone, Lan quickly handed the receiver to Kogoro: "Dad, your call is from a man named Sametani."

"Sametani? I don't know him." Maori said.

"The person on the other end said he was your colleague who worked as a criminal police officer with you when you were still in the Metropolitan Police Department. Hurry up and answer the phone," Xiaolan said.

"Got it." Kogoro took the receiver and pressed a button to release the call.

"Hello, I'm Maori... ah, it's a crocodile!"

Kogoro, who was picking his ears while answering the phone, suddenly brightened up his eyes and exclaimed in surprise.

"Crocodile?"

Conan and Ran both looked confused.
