Conan: The Mechanic

While they were on stage, the music started.

This music Chiba is too familiar - this is not an ES original song, but a year and a half ago, on December 10, 1992, the first song of Takayama Minami's debut album with the support of Nagano Shiina - "Endless" "——But if Chiba remembers correctly, that song only has two positions, the singer and the keyboard player, and there is no need for the guitar player to appear in the song, right? (As a matter of fact, three of the six songs on the only album ES released were made by Minami Takayama and Shiina Nagano before the group was formed.)

At this moment, they took to the stage.

"Wow!!!"

"Minami!!!"

"ES!!!"

The enthusiastic cheers of more than 10,000 people almost made Qianyu feel suffocated, while Yukawaji and Nagano Shiina released the hands of the detective team members, came to their positions on the stage and signaled the little guys to come over - let go of their hands Just for the convenience of the show.

It was only then that Chiba saw that there was a performance keyboard on both sides of the stage—it seems that although Osamu is a guitarist, he can also use electronic keyboards proficiently. . .

"I\'VEGOTANENDLESS" Takayama Minami took Ayumi and Conan to the lead singer position, crouched down under everyone's surprised eyes, and performed with Ayumi and Conan, who had already received the lyrics note, with the microphone in their hands singing.

At this moment, Osamu Kawaji and Nagano Shiina respectively motioned for them to walk to the microphone next to the electronic keyboard.

In this way, Japan's most popular singing group sent six elementary school students who were almost unknown to the spotlight of fans around the world.

Um. . . In a sense, five.

Although Qianyu was still singing to the rhythm of Gao Shannan, her mind was not on the music at all.

Behind him, Ai Haibara wore a peaked cap borrowed from the staff, and lowered her head, as if planning to escape from the spotlight.

What's up with her? According to her own understanding of her, at most, she felt a little nervous in the bottom of her heart in such a scene, but on the surface she was definitely still very calm (just like Qianyu's current state). But why is she so rude now. . .

Haibara Ai put her hand on Chiyu's shoulder and completely hid in the shadow behind Chiyu.

Chiyu was startled by the two little hands stretched out from behind, but he immediately felt something even more surprising from the touch on his shoulders.

Haibara Ai's hands trembled violently. She was not nervous, but fearful!

Chiyu reacted immediately, took a slight step back, and hid Haibara Ai further behind her. Haibara Ai did not reject Qianyu's approach to him, but instead moved forward a little bit, putting the peaked cap on Qianyu's body, and burying her face in Qianyu's clothes.

In such an uneasy atmosphere, Chiba and others finished singing "Endless".

"Everyone wants to know, why do we bring these children to the stage?" Takayama Minami, who had been half-kneeling and shared a microphone with Conan and Ayumi, stood up and asked. "Because just less than an hour ago, it was these children who bravely rescued my partner, Mr. Shiina Nagano, from a vicious kidnapper."

There was an uproar in the audience, and a lot of eyes were refocused on Qianyu and the others.

Haibara Ai lowered her head, pressed the duck tongue of her cap down, and put her head on Chiyu's back—this unpredictable action made Chiyu tremble.

"Now, let's applaud these little warriors!" Gao Shannan handed the microphone to Conan. "Please state your name one by one!"

"Please help me..." After hearing these words, Haibara Ai whispered to Qianyu in a low voice.

"I... my name is Conan Edogawa." At this moment, Conan started to introduce.

"This is Ayumi Yoshida!" Ayumi was obviously much more lively than Conan.

"Matsuhiko Tsuburaya!"

"Mita Kojima!"

"My name is Tachibana Qianyu," Qianyu nodded slightly, greeted the audience, and then looked behind her. "Well... it looks like my friend is a little nervous. Her name is Haibara Ai."

With the end of Qianyu's self-introduction, the audience burst into applause, sending encouragement to these brave little guys.

After accepting the audience's encouragement, Ojikawa brought Chiba and the others back to the backstage.

"What's going on?" Conan asked Chiba when he saw Haibara Ai, who was obviously wrong. He could clearly feel that after the "Cocoon" game, the relationship between Chiba and Haibara Ai was at a speed that was visible to the naked eye. Warm up. "Isn't something wrong with Hui Yuan?"

"Maybe it's because I'm not feeling well," Qianyu shook her head. "Should I take her back first?"

"If that's the case, send her back first." Conan nodded. "I'm going to the hot spring tomorrow. It's best not to get sick today."

. . .

After the concert, backstage ~www.NovelMTL.com~ Gao Shannan was removing makeup in his dressing room with the help of his assistant, when the door rang.

"Huh?" Gao Shannan looked at the door curiously. After hesitating for a moment, he put on a special mask on the dressing table - this mask was made to face this situation - and opened the door.

Outside the door is a man with long blond hair in a black trench coat and a black hat.

"Where is that kid named Tachibana Qianyu just now?" The man's tone was flat, but it gave off an undeniable sense of oppression.

"..." Gao Shannan felt a little breathless for a moment - the pressure of this person was more terrifying than the sum of the pressure generated by the tens of thousands of audiences during a concert. "that..."

Gao Shannan felt that she didn't even have the courage to lie - so she chose to tell the truth.

"I don't know where he is. He just went back."

Gao Shannan didn't have the courage to tell lies, but she had the courage to tell the truth that would be misleading.

"..." The blond man's eyes dimmed for a moment, then left.

"..." Gao Shannan looked at this inexplicable weirdo, shrugged his shoulders, closed the door, and took off his mask. "Strange guy... Leave him alone and continue to remove my makeup."

. . .

The blond man came to the parking lot and got into his cherished antique car—but he was in the passenger seat.

"Big Brother," a burly man also dressed in black sat in the driver's seat, looking at the blond man. "What did you do?"

"It's nothing, go back." The blond man said lightly after being silent for a while.

After the engine shuddered for a moment, the Porsche 356A was gone.
