Chapter 109 Black Iron Fish Shadow (2)

A white car glided quietly on the city streets, like a lurking cheetah waiting for its prey to appear.

The atmosphere in the car was a little tense. Bourbon's fingers tapped lightly on the car window. Each tap seemed to have a certain rhythm, as if reflecting his inner uneasiness. He turned to look at Belmode and asked, "What's the situation?"

Vermouth sat in the driver's seat with a confident smile on her face. A photo of a man was displayed on the screen of her mobile phone. She swiped the screen attentively, and the man in the photo changed several angles under her operation, as if he was being carefully examined.

Her voice was low and magnetic, like a force that could penetrate people's hearts: "So far, everything is under control. However, we still need to use that system to find the exact location of this man."

Bourbon nodded and looked out the window again. The street lights cast streaks of light on the car window, just like the passage of time. He sighed softly, as if lamenting the difficulty of this task. He spoke slowly, with a barely perceptible fatigue in his voice: "Yes, it's just a matter of time. We will definitely find him."

Vermouth did not respond, but just smiled and nodded. The tacit understanding between the two did not need much words, with just a glance and a gesture, they could understand each other's intentions.

The Mika Department Store was bustling with people as a grand lottery event was in full swing. Three elementary school students, Genta, Mitsuhiko, and Ayumi, were also attracted by the craze and squeezed into the crowd to discuss excitedly.

"Oh, so cool!" Yuantai widened his eyes and looked at the lively scene in front of the lottery box.

“It is said that the first prize is whale watching!” Mitsuhiko added excitedly, as if he could already imagine standing on a whale-watching boat and watching the spectacular sight of whales leaping out of the sea.

Ayumi said with a determined look: "We must win the lottery!"

The clerk patiently explained the lottery rules: "Each person can only draw once, please line up and don't crowd."

In the long lottery line, a little girl's voice was particularly loud: "I really want to go whale watching!" Her face was filled with anticipation and excitement, as if the first prize was just around the corner.

Yuantai held the lottery ticket in his hand with a smug smile on his face: "Maybe the dolphins are still waiting for us." He imitated the doctor's tone, although it was a bit stiff.

Conan stood aside, watching Yuanta and the others' excitement, and couldn't help but laugh. He thought: How did this kid get a doctorate?

Inside the Beika Department Store, there was a huge crowd of people and various promotional activities were going on. Conan accidentally saw Huihara Ai walking away alone and shouted curiously, "Hey! Where are you going?"

Huibara Ai didn't even turn her head, but just waved her hand and said softly, "I'll be back soon." Her voice sounded unusually calm among the noisy crowd.

Not far away, an enthusiastic sales lady was busy and happy, waving the limited brooch purchase coupons in her hand, and each time she handed out a coupon, she was accompanied by warm blessings. Finally, one of her coupons was grabbed by a smiling lady, who happily took the coupon and thanked her repeatedly.

Huiyuan Ai happened to pass by and witnessed all this. A subtle emotion flashed in her eyes, and then she quickened her pace and walked towards the sales lady. Just as the sales lady was about to pack up the stall, Huiyuan Ai arrived in time and took the last promotional coupon. She politely said "thank you" and prepared to turn around and leave.

At this moment, an elderly lady slowly walked over, her face full of disappointment. She looked at the sales lady and sighed helplessly: "Hey, can't you be flexible? I took an hour-long train ride to get here..."

[Bourbon asked Vermouth in a slightly mocking tone, "Do you really like that brooch? It's wrong to lie to a child like this!"

Vermouth didn't want to pay attention to this blonde partner at first, but after thinking about it, she said, "Do you like it? This was given to me by Ai herself. I never said this to this cute girl with brown hair even once from beginning to end."

Conan asked Vermouth, is this why you help her?

Vermouth, it's half and half. Besides, isn't it your responsibility to solve this mystery?

Yukiko Kudo, Sharon is very nice to our family!

Vermouth wanted to say something but didn't say it. She just smiled and looked at Mao Lilan who was watching the movie on the other side.

Mao Lilan, look, I'm about to appear. 】

The sales lady immediately showed an apologetic expression and explained softly: "I'm really sorry, this product is sold in limited quantities."

Although the old lady was a little disappointed, she still forced a smile: "Okay, I understand."

However, at this moment, Huiyuan Ai stopped, turned to look at the old lady, and then slowly walked towards her. In the surprised eyes of everyone, Huiyuan Ai handed the qualification ticket in her hand to the old lady and said gently: "This is for you."

The old lady obviously didn't expect such a reversal. She waved her hand and refused: "Oh, child, how can this be possible?"

Huiyuan Ai smiled slightly and explained: "Actually, I didn't look at the price carefully just now. This brooch may not be suitable for me."

After hearing this, the old lady's eyes flashed with gratitude. She took the ticket and thanked him repeatedly. Huihara Ai smiled calmly and turned away from the crowd.

[Audience member Vermouth chuckled and asked Vodka next to her, "What do you think of my beautiful green manicure?" Vodka replied unhappily, "You are so conceited."

Tiantai shook his head helplessly, because from then on he kept staring at the characters' fingers, but the author seemed to stop drawing nail art. 】

Next to the railing on the second floor, Yuanzi leaned against the railing, her eyes fixed on the scene that had just happened not far away. Curiosity flashed in her eyes, and she turned to Mao Lilan beside her and asked: "Lan, what exactly happened over there?"

Mao Lilan gently leaned on the railing and responded with a smile: "Sonoko, did you see that? Xiao Ai gave the promotional coupon in her hand to the old lady. She may think that the old lady needs this opportunity more. This is the warm moment we just witnessed."

Yuanzi was very happy and thought to himself, "I'm going to give this little kid a reward!"
