77.

Early the next morning, Hattori Heiji took Conan and Mori Kogoro out.Rin Toyama fell asleep at dawn, completely unaware of Sonoko Suzuki, Eisuke Hondo, and Masumi Sera who came to chat with Mori Ran. He was groggy, with messy hair and pajamas, and opened the door. Almost bumped into Xiaolan who was carrying a tray.

"Eh?! Xiaolan!!! What's going on!!! You're already living together?! You didn't tell me such a big thing!!!" Suzuki Sonoko grabbed Mao Lilan's neck like a chicken blood His shoulders shook wildly, and then he took out his mobile phone and took a photo of Toyama Rin who still didn't know what happened to save the "criminal evidence", and planned to send it to Kudo later saying that her wife had an "affair".

"No, it's not this garden!!! That's my dad's room!!!"

"What?! Could it be!!!" Yuanzi was so frightened that he almost threw his phone away, "Yuan Shanjun and uncle, the two of them—"

"What are you thinking!!! Rin came here with Hattori! Our house doesn't have any other guest rooms, so they made the floor at Dad's - Hattori has a commission, so Dad and they went out together early in the morning!"

"Tch, you should have said earlier—" Ms. Suzuki, the king of gossip, fell back on the sofa with a look of great disappointment. After a while, she didn't know what to think again, and she jumped up with a "swish", her eyes were shining, "Yes Yes, even though we are both in the same discussion group, Hondo and Shiliang haven’t seen Toyama yet, right? How about we go out and have fun today?”

When Toyama Rin came back after washing and changing, these people seemed to have decided where to go.

"Let's go, let's go! This is a rare opportunity, let's go to the amusement park! Yuanshan-kun, too!"

"This..." The boy originally planned to go to Hattori Heiji after waking up, but—

"Come on, come on! It's hard to come here, today I treat you, you all come!"

"Come Rin too! Hattori and the others seem to be going to investigate the case, and I don't know when they will be back! Why don't you hang out with us during this time? It's a rare opportunity to get together like this..."

"..."

It's hard to say no to girls acting like a baby.

So half an hour later, he got on the bus with Xiaolan and Sonoko, along with Sera Masumi and Hondo Eisuke. ——Five people occupied three rows of seats, and they started to ask Toyama Rin difficult problems as soon as they got on the bus.

"Toyama-kun! Guess who of them is Sera and who is the main hall." Suzuki Sonoko asked with a smile on the back of the chair, "If you say something wrong, you will be the first to enter the haunted house!"

Who is Sera and who is the main hall?Guess what's the point of this?

"Hahaha, Suzuki just likes it like this! It's okay, Toyama, you can just guess." Sera Masumi with a small curly hair said with a smile.

Ok……

Sera Masumi is probably a girl's name, and Hondo Eisuke has a word "Yu" in it, which is more common in boys' names, so it is enough to guess their gender, the girl must be...

No, it shouldn't be that simple.

Otherwise, Suzuki Sonoko wouldn't have asked him to guess such a boring question... She must have felt that others would guess wrong, so she seemed so confident.

"Then if I guess right, Suzuki, you will be the first to enter the haunted house, right?"

"Okay, no problem!"

"Then, Shiliang Zhenchun is—" Toyama Rin moved his finger, pointing to the little curly hair beside him who was laughing out his canine teeth: "This one."

"what?!"

Actually right?

"Hahahaha, so it is like this!" Shiliang Zhenchun folded his arms and laughed, and seemed to think of something after a while, "In this case, Yuanshan, why don't you come and compete to see who is better!"

"Huh?! Than what?"

"Inference!"

"Ah?" Toyama Rin wondered if he didn't sleep well last night, so he couldn't keep up with the rhythm like a fool.

Sera Masumi took out his mobile phone, tapped the screen a few times, and then handed it over.

This is the news this morning. There are several large characters printed in the upper left corner of the third page, which look very eye-catching——

[Another high school student detective has emerged, and the beautiful boy in Kansai has arrested the illegal lawyer. 】

At the same time, I attach a photo of the boy who was taken when he opened the door and walked out of Ito's house.

Rin Toyama endured the chills and goosebumps all over his body to finish reading the report that blew him up to hype, and finally he was so embarrassed that he was holding Sera Zhenchun's mobile phone, and his whole body turned red like a boiled crab.

"what happened?"

"...It's not me, I can't stand it anymore."

"But this is obviously your photo! 'The Beautiful Boy of Kansai'-kun!"

"...I want to get some air."

The boy threw the phone back to Shiliang, then stood up from the seat and reached out to a place where the window could be opened, letting the wind in to blow his face.

"Are you shy? This guy is quite cute." Shiliang showed his little canine teeth.

It would be naive to think that this is the end of it. ——On the way to the amusement park, Rin Toyama received countless calls and text messages. It seemed that people all over the world read the newspaper and knew the "deeds" of "Detective Rin Toyama".

"Hey, Xiao Lin, I'm Otaki! It's nothing, I just saw you in the newspaper! As expected of the minister's son—"

"Hey, son. Just now Otaki said—"

"Toyama-kun, I'm Harada! I saw you in the newspaper! You're amazing!"

[Congratulations, big cousin, you are the No.2 detective in Kansai. 】

"Yuan Shan, you're in the newspaper! Read it quickly!"

"Hahahaha, it seems that you have acquired detective cells after staying with Hattori for a long time!"

……

……

……

Damn, I really want to die.

Toyama Rin's intestines are now regretful. ——The sentence "My name is Rin Toyama, I'm a detective" is exactly what he said in a cool manner imitating Kudo and Heiji's tone for a while. Which reporter exaggerated like this...

Now as soon as he closes his eyes, he can see the words "A beautiful young man in Kansai smartly arrests an illegal lawyer" scrolling in the dark, followed by "Justice, Hot Blood, Youth and Tenderness", which is twisted and twisted like a computer protection program. Go dig out the flowers.

What kind of bullshit is "beautiful boy"! ! !It sounds awkward! ! !What is going on with this "tenderness"! ! !Are you writing a Mary Sue novel? !

He even said that he rescued the little boy who was taken hostage by lawyer Ito at the door, and encouraged the little boy afterwards, telling him not to be afraid...

He just knelt down and bumped fists with the real tool man boy who made a bet with him! ! !Do you want to make up so much! ! !

"I also said that I look forward to my future performance - how can I have any performance..."

Toyama Rin's head is full of clouds. If it weren't for the amusement park to save his life, he would be depressed all day.As a result, when the group of them separated at the exit of the amusement park, Sera Masumi remembered this incident for some reason, waved to him, and said jokingly, "Goodbye, beautiful boy detective!"

The boy had forgotten about it at first, but when Shiliang said this, he started to blush again.

Why do you have to emphasize the word "beautiful boy"! ! !Don't you all feel embarrassed? !

"Well... why don't we guess a riddle!" Xiaolan looked at Rin Toyama who was lying on the table with her head buried in tears, and said so in order to ease the atmosphere.

"...Okay." The boy opposite said in a muffled voice.

"Then listen to the puzzle, what kind of rubbish (ゴミ) can't be thrown away?"

"...the answer is 'crowd', written as '人混み', pronounced 'hitogomi'.—Is that right, Ran?"

"Ah! Mr. Amuro!"

"Hahaha, I'm sorry, I heard you guys guessing, so I couldn't help but rush to answer. Good evening, both of you! What do you want to eat today?" Amuro Toru, wearing the uniform of the Polo Cafe, filled the tray Put two cups of barley tea on the dining table, and asked with a smile.

"...Give me a bottle of strong." Toyama Rin still buried his head in his arms, and said vaguely.

"Under the age of 22, you can't drink alcohol, and you can't drink if you are an adult."

"Then give me a 'forget everything', physical ones are also fine."

"...What happened?" Amuro asked dumbfounded, "Did something happen?"

"This... yes, it's because of a certain case..."

"By the way, speaking of the case, I saw that the beauty of Kansai was mentioned in today's newspaper—"

Before he finished speaking, Mao Lilan quickly grabbed Toru Amuro's hand, raised his index finger and let out a "shh".

"—The Art Museum found the card of the Kaitou Kidd."

"Huh? Phantom Thief Kidd?" Toyama Rin raised his head with a puzzled look on his face.

"Well, the target this time seems to be a famous painting in the collection. - Van Gogh's Sunflowers. It will be about a week later."

"...Didn't Phantom Thief Kid only steal gems?"

"Well, who knows. —Have you decided what to eat? If not, I can help you choose. Don't worry, the price must be within the acceptable range of high school students."

"Then trouble Mr. Amuro!" Toyama Rin seemed to cheer up suddenly, straightened his back and took out his mobile phone, and called the beloved police officer Otaki to ask about Kaitou Kidd.

His little cousin is really going to steal the painting! ! !Could it be that Kaito now feels that stealing gems is not enough, and has he started stealing everything he sees? !

It's over, the location is still in Osaka, and the time is still summer vacation, how can we delay Heiji now?

Seeing the distressed look of the boy, Miss Mori on the opposite side smiled slightly, and blinked at Rin Toyama with her chin propped on her palm.

"Rin really worked hard."

"Ok?"

"Is it for Hattori? Determined to be a detective and catch Kaitou Kid or something."

"..." No, this is all a misunderstanding.I want to stop Heiji from catching Kaito...

"I'm so envious of you—you can always stay by the side of the person you like." Xiao Lan turned to the window, looking at the street with people passing by, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, "Actually, I also thought about it, if I were a boy... Maybe you can always follow behind Xinyi..."

Toyama Rin was stunned.

Her eyes reflected the neon lights outside the window, but they were not so real, as if they were covered with mist.

"Hey, Rin.—I... miss him so much."

————————————————————————————————————————

The boy recorded what Xiaolan said and sent it directly to Kudo Shinichi, so the atmosphere of the detective agency that night was a bit delicate.

Hattori Heiji was still angry with Rin Toyama and insisted on ignoring him.Rin is thinking about how to persuade Heiji to return, and at the same time, she is distressed because her friend decided to go to the art museum to catch Kidd.Xiaolan is missing her sweetheart, holding a thin photo album, which seems to be full of photos of them when they were young.As for Conan, he was sitting on the sofa holding his mobile phone and staring at the girl he liked in a daze, not knowing what he was thinking.

Before going to bed at night, Rin Toyama talked about it and pressed Hattori Heiji to change the medicine for the wound on his body.The latter seemed to have a slight cold because he was drenched earlier yesterday and didn't change his clothes in time, and fell asleep after lying down for a while.

Rin was so disturbed by Mori Kogoro's snoring that he couldn't fall asleep, so he simply didn't sleep, holding his mobile phone to search for things about Van Gogh's sunflowers.

Looking at it, the sleeping Hattori Heiji turned over on his futon, being pressed against his stomach through the air conditioner.

Rin Toyama paused, put down the phone and pushed Heiji back to his own position, pulled back the corner of the quilt to cover his friend's hands and feet, and then touched the other person's forehead.

The temperature is normal.

The fingertip stayed on the forehead for a while, then moved to the eye socket, gently scraped the fine eyelashes, slid along the line of the corner of the eye to the temple, brushed the black hair, and finally landed on the smooth ear superior.

Toyama Rin couldn't tell the meaning of such a move, and even felt that he was ridiculously boring.But he just couldn't help it.

He felt at ease being able to stay by Hattori Heiji's side like this.It seemed that no matter what happened outside, it couldn't affect his current mood.

This big detective looks so cute when he is asleep...

I don't know if after decades passed and they were all old, if he watched Hattori Heiji sleep like this again, would he still have the same thoughts? ——I think a wrinkled old man is "cute" or something.

Rin Toyama laughed, and raised his hand to touch his friend's bangs.

"You're right, I'm just thinking too much."

"What will happen in the future, only the future me will know."

"...Good night, Heiji."

That night, the boy had a different nightmare.This time, he memorized its contents.

As for why it is called a nightmare? —Because he dreamed that he did not live to that time.And Heiji... Heiji was gray-haired, sitting alone in the corridor of a mansion, basking in the sun, reading a mystery novel in his hand, stopping from time to time, with the crimson violin next to him say something.

"...Why are the novels written so old-fashioned now, not as exciting as they used to be?—I still remember the "Valley of the Faraway" you gave me before. The plot is two blocks away from it."

"Well, but it's a good read to pass the time.—This is a very interesting passage, why don't I read it to you."
