"Atleast it's just a prank..." Detective Mouri sighed in relief as he and his daughter walked inside the company building to get their stuffs back, thankfully a little bit sobered up by now.

Furuya looked around in confusion as he haven't seen the brunette who usually sighs a lot more than he could possibly count on his fingers. He then turned to look at Arthur in question as the half-British was the person he last seen to be together with the mysterious model.

"Where's Sumire-chan?" He asked with a microscopic smile etched on his face - as it is still highly tense to talk with the brunette's subordinate because of their last talk together back at Aŕsene Restaurant.

The disguised Federal Bureau of Investigation agent simply looked at the blonde Public Security Bureau agent for a second in response to his cold question, wondering what idiocy and childish acts Arthur Huntford ever did to Furuya Rei to receive the same treatment he only normally gets from the younger male. Sumire and Shuichi met Arthur after spending two years as new agents in the bureau when the dark bluish haired male came as an intern. Truth to be told though, even Akai find his fellow British-Japanese to be quite manipulative and a two-faced agent infront of others he don't seem to have bad relationship with and would even label the other male as an obstacle in getting to know Sumire for other people back in the bureau but since he came with Sumire and even used to live with her in the same apartment before the mission to send him to infiltrate the Black Organization, Arthur couldn't do anything but give him some attitude time to time.

"She went to talk to that Inspector Ayanokoji. They seem to know each other. She said to just wait for her in a restaurant nearby then we're going back to Beika City."

"Ara, aren't you curious what they're talking about? Why not come with him?" Haibara smirked, obviously preferring to the blonde agent before looking at the shrunkened detective who is sneakily following Sumire and Inspector Ayanokoji while eavesdropping into the two adults' conversation. Akai and Furuya averted their eyes from each other to look into the same direction the chemist is looking at, eyes widening a bit at how Conan is following the two without any of them noticing.

"Go." Akai stated in Arthur's voice and with that, Furuya rushed to follow Conan to join him in tailing the brunette and the inspector. Haibara smirked before shrugging her shoulders, heading towards the building to catch up with the two people inside who bear the name Mouri with Arthur following behind her closely.

"Oh Bourbon, you have no idea what you're getting yourself into with that woman. I can already see you falling for her and soon you won't be able to stop." Akai said to himself out loud in his own voice after he turned off his voice-changing choker from Professor Agasa, causing the auburn haired chemist who's still close enough to visibly sigh at how messed up this will turn out to be when the blonde officer find out that Sumire is actually from the intellegence agency he despise before she crossed her arms across her chest.

On the other hand...

Sumire glared daggers at Inspector Ayanokoji with tears daring to fall from her eyes, a closed blade fan loosely in her grasp with blood still falling down from her wound before she used her other hand to slap him in the face. Conan and Rei exchange confused looks with each other as their current location aren't close enough for them to hear the words the two are exchanging with each other.

"You're the inspector now." Sumire whispered, managing to held back her tears of pain and exhausion as she looked down. The blade fan on her left hand getting slightly stained by her warm red liquid as her grip on it tightens as another wave of pain surges through her arm because of the wound - as it is rather a deep wound by the key hooks.

Conan watched in horror as he finally caught sight of the dripping blood into the ground from his older sister's arm. The shrunkened detective stood up from their hiding spot, ready to rush to his sister but a hand stopped him. Conan looked at Rei in confusion before the older male shook his head sideways in disagreement to what he's about to do as he have a feeling that whatever the brunette and the prefectural inspector are talking about is important enough for Sumire not to burst right here and then with her current condition.
