Because Senichi used the ultimate move of "telling the parents," Conan had to obediently accept it even if he was unwilling in his heart.
Under his mother's continuous education, although Conan looked disheartened with dead fish eyes and had a face full of speechlessness, he indeed reflected on some of his previous actions once again.
This was also the result of Senichi's intentional guidance, because although Conan appeared calm on the surface, when it came to encounters with the Black Organization, he was actually a reckless brute.
The situation was akin to an aggressive dog smelling meat; once it bites, it doesn't want to let go, disregarding its own safety.
In the original plot, after narrowly escaping death in the storage locker and meeting Shuichi Akai, Conan gradually became more composed as he no longer relied solely on himself for planning.
However, this time, due to Senichi's involvement, Conan lacked that unforgettable lesson, which might make him somewhat impatient.
Therefore, Senichi used Yukiko's education to polish Conan's mindset, prompting him to reflect thoroughly, lest his impetuosity lead to plan failures in the future.
This method proved quite effective, with some outstanding results.
Initially, Senichi acted as a "positive example" and delivered a direct blow to Conan, subsequently arousing the concerns of Kudo Yukiko as a mother, thus initiating the main lecturing mode.
With an additional sarcastic commentary from Haibara on the side...
The seamless cooperation among the three gradually pushed Conan into a state of autism.
However, despite his autism, Conan was still the "beloved child" of this world. He quickly broke free from the heart-wrenching negative emotions and started to reflect seriously.
But this reflection... was even more heart-wrenching!
Reviewing various encounters after Senichi's involvement, especially in each confrontation with the Black Organization, it seemed like his role was just to stand by idly...
Suddenly, it became even more heart-wrenching!!
Most of the plans were designed by Senichi based on his own backup arrangements, which were sophisticated enough, far surpassing what Conan could have come up with on his own. And it seemed like his most useful role was just to execute the plans with Senichi...
For example, saving Miwako Sato in disguise... dressing up as a girl to place the virus-infected disk at the exchange location...
Damn!!
Just thinking about it, Conan felt a bit frustrated. Why the hell does cross-dressing always come into play every time!!
Am I destined to only be effective when cross-dressing!?
Thinking about every encounter with the Black Organization, where he could only be a tool, Conan resolved to change this predicament of being just a pawn.
Next time, I'll be the one laying out the plan! I'll become a true adversary against the Black Organization, not just a tool who can only cross-dress!!
"Shin-chan! Shin-chan!! Are you even listening?!" Just as Conan was lost in thought, his mother's voice came through, gradually bringing him back to reality.
"Really!" Yukiko withdrew the hand she had been shaking in front of Conan, then she put her hands on her hips and said angrily, "I say something and you just space out. Did you even hear what I just said?"
"Ah... no..." Seeing Yukiko's furrowed brow, Conan quickly admitted fault, "I was just reflecting on my mistakes, I realized that whenever something related to the Black Organization comes up, my mind gets a bit too hot..."
"That's why I reminded you to not be impulsive!"
Yukiko leaned over and looked down at Conan as she educated him, "In the future, if anything related to the Black Organization comes up, you must not act rashly. Remember to listen to Detective Senichi's words, understood?!"
Without waiting for Conan's bewildered response, Yukiko turned directly to Senichi and said, "Detective Senichi, I'm entrusting this child to you. Since he was young, whenever he encounters a case or something similar, he throws caution to the wind. If he doesn't behave, don't hesitate to discipline him."
Although Yukiko's deduction skills were lacking, she was still sensible. She understood the danger of the Black Organization and knew her son's personality well.
Although her son was about to become an adult, he was still a high school student, not mature enough despite experiencing numerous cases.
As a mother, she was absolutely clear about her son's character. He seemed calm and cautious, but sometimes he acted recklessly.
It was precisely because of this that she entrusted Conan to Senichi.
"Don't worry, if it's related to the Black Organization, I'll prioritize caution and make sure not to act recklessly."
Senichi smiled and added, "And Mrs. Kudo, you don't need to worry too much about Conan. Although he can be impulsive when confronting the Black Organization, he can still play a crucial role when he calms down at critical moments."
Upon hearing the two of them chatting and laughing as they completed the "Conan-style Excalibur" handover, Conan couldn't help but darken his expression.
Just now, he was thinking about changing his bad habits and breaking free from the role of being a mere tool, gaining an advantage in confrontations with the Black Organization.
But who would have thought that his own mother would strike back with a backstab, directly handing over his "life and death authority" to Senichi!?
Doesn't that mean I can only obediently remain a tool in the future, unable to even resist?
"Huh? When Shin-chan told me earlier, he only said he had helped a lot, but didn't specify what he did... I thought it was a lie..."
"Hey hey! What do you take your own son for!" Conan protested unhappily after hearing his mother's words.
However, Yukiko directly ignored Conan's complaint and instead turned to Senichi curiously, asking, "I didn't expect Shin-chan to have played a role in it. What did he do?"
Upon hearing his mother's question, Conan immediately ran to Senichi's side, trying to cover Senichi's mouth with his hand. But unexpectedly, Senichi didn't speak, and instead, it was Haibara sitting beside Yukiko who calmly spoke up:
"It's true, and Conan did things that Detective Senichi couldn't do. For example, during the rescue mission for my sister, he used his identity as a child to his advantage.
Along with Detective Senichi's disguise technique, he cross-dressed as a girl to enter the women's restroom to deliver clothing to my sister.
Then, the two of them posed as mother and daughter, helping my sister escape the surveillance of the Black Organization members."
"Huh!?"
Upon hearing Haibara's words, Yukiko subconsciously looked at Haibara, who appeared calm. Then, she turned to Conan, who looked anxious. Yukiko gradually realized something, and her expression turned sinister.
"Shut up, Haibara!" Conan's face darkened, shouting in frustration.
I didn't expect it to be you backstabbing me this time. I was so careless, guarding against Senichi but not against you, this deeply hidden accomplice!
At this moment, Conan's heart felt like a herd of wild horses galloping...
All he could say was, "Damn it!!"
