Crimson Blade

In the early morning sun, with a small satchel on her back, Mao Lilan, a girl with long black hair, looked at her watch anxiously, and murmured to herself in doubt:

"Strange, why is Yuanzi late today?"

"Could it be that Sister Sonoko overslept today?" The girl named Ayumi in a floral dress tilted her head and guessed.

"Maybe it's because the traffic on the road is too congested, so I'm late." Looking at the crowd around him, Mitsuhiko nodded and said seriously.

Hey, traffic jams or something is definitely possible...

The horns of the vehicles came one after another on the road, and the fans at the entrance of the autograph venue crowded shoulder to shoulder. Conan curled his lips and looked at his companions who were discussing fiercely, and said quite speechlessly:

"I said, why do you want to follow?"

I came here to prevent that woman from Yuanzi from casually introducing Xiaolan's rival in love. What are these brats doing here?

As if knowing that Conan was complaining in his heart, Haibara, who was standing aside a bit coldly, tilted his head, and said with a hint of smile in his brown eyes:

"This is the only time the author of the manga Scarlet Samurai has signed publicly for so many years."

"Yes, of course we want to come as fans!" Kojima Motota's simple and honest voice echoed, followed by voices of dissatisfaction from Ayumi and Mitsuhiko.

"If Xiao Ai hadn't told us, Conan, you want to leave us again this time, it's too much."

Where do I have it?

Conan muttered with dead fish eyes: "It's just a comic signature..."

"What is a cartoon!"

Accompanied by a bang, Conan's head was smashed down, and Suzuki Sonoko, who had just arrived, roared with a hint of anger on his face:

"That's not just a signature, it's our fans' love for Himura-sama!"

This is a bit exaggerated, and I am here myself!

Standing behind Sonoko, Himura Ren, who was still dressed as a samurai, felt a little embarrassed, and a little helpless after being surrounded by people.

Although this is a signing event on the surface, in fact, most fans also regard it as a comic exhibition, so naturally many cos will appear.

Because of this, Fei Cunren's dress is not obtrusive at all, the only problem is that it is easy to be praised.

"Wow, that person looks like a cosplayer!"

Fans' admiration came from his ears, Fei Cunren's face was sullen, but the base of his ears still blushed slightly, and now he really regrets following Sonoko's advice and maintaining his appearance.

It hurts, Sonoko!

Clutching his hammered head, Conan muttered viciously in his heart, turned his eyes to Himura Ren behind Suzuki Sonoko, and then felt more vigilant and curious.

Looking at the standing posture of this guy, and the calluses on his hands, he should be a person who has practiced swordsmanship for a long time...

Tilting his head, his eyes paused for a moment on the long knife pinned to Fei Cunren's waist. Conan, who was aroused by curiosity, adjusted his expression, and then pretended to be a child and asked:

"Ah, who is this big brother?"

"Is big brother a fan of this comic too?"

With an innocent expression on his face, Conan asked in a soft and cute voice, while on the other hand he nimbly approached Himura Ren.

Strangely, this knife doesn't seem fake, and the handle has some wear and tear, as if it has been used for a long time.

There was a slight solemnity in his eyes, and Conan, who sensed something was wrong, wanted to continue to observe, but in the next second, his feet flew into the air, and he was lifted and pulled behind.

"Conan! You are so rude!"

With one hand on her hip, Xiaolan reprimanded angrily at first, and then said to Feicunren apologetically:

"Sorry, my name is Mao Lilan, may I ask who you are?"

"I…"

No, wouldn't he be finished if he reported his real name here?

Looking at the very polite Xiaolan in front of him, and looking around at the fans coming and going around from the corner of his eye, Fei Cunren's lips moved for a while, and then he continued:

"Xinta Zaomen, uh, my name is Xinta Zaomen."

"Oh, Mr. Zaomen."

The ignorant Xiaolan continued to say hello, but Yuanzi's expression became very strange, and at the same time, he glanced at Conan with some annoyance and secretly said:

It's all because that stinky brat brought so many people, otherwise I would have introduced Ah Ren to Xiaolan directly.

"Wow, big brother cosplays like that!"

Adults need to politely call Mr. Zaomen, but Ayumi, who is still a child, just subconsciously admired according to her own preferences.

"Yeah, it really looks like it!" Mitsuhiko on the side also echoed with bright eyes, then raised the camera hanging on his chest and asked, "Can you pull out the long knife and swing it a few times, I want to take a picture of you photo."

"Ah?" Fei Cunren was stunned.

"It's the way Scarlet Ranger wields a knife." Yuan Tai waved his hands excitedly at the side, and then complained, "Ah, why don't you even know this!?"

I…

Looking at Sonoko standing aside for help, Fei Cunren, who was entangled by the child, had a stiff smile on his face, and felt like crying for a while.

This is a real knife, it has a blood groove, it will definitely reveal itself.

"Little brother, that knife may be just a prop, it cannot be pulled out."

However, before Sonoko made a move to stop him, the girl who had been watching for a long time explained.

"Hey, that's it!"

The children sighed with regret, but Conan's eyes were still full of suspicion. He poked Hui Yuanai who was standing quietly beside him and asked:

"What do you think, the weight of that knife doesn't look like it."

"really…"

A cold voice sounded, Hui Yuanai looked at Fei Cun Ren surrounded by children, and his tone was a little strange.

Why did she feel that this guy was exactly like the protagonist of this comic?

Obviously, Hui Yuanai is not the only one who feels this way, the girl who just helped Fei Cunren out of the siege also begged a little shyly:

"Well, you're the closest cosplayer Himurabani I've ever seen, so can I ask you to stand with my brother and take a photo?"

"Just stand there, no need to pose."

"sure!"

Slightly relieved, Himura Ren nodded with a smile and agreed that it shouldn't matter. The only thing he was confused about was why this girl didn't take a photo with him.

However, in the next second, reality told him why.

"Can you guys come a little closer?"

"You two are the official CP, what are you doing standing so far away?"

With an aunt's smile on her face, the girl shyly directed Fei Cunren and her brother, and then spoke the words of tiger and wolf in a soft voice.

"..."

Glancing at the man who is obviously cosplaying next to him is the brave man. Although he doesn't understand what CP is, but obviously feels that the situation is not right, Himura Takes a deep breath and smiles reluctantly:

"I think this distance is fine."

Well, it really works.

Himura Ren, who looked at the camera, thought speechlessly, feeling tired again.

Because the autograph session was about to start, the girl followed her brother with some reluctance and regret, and Himura Ren also followed Suzuki Sonoko in a state of devastation.

Himura Ren felt his head hurt a bit. To be honest, if it wasn't for Sonoko's constant begging and the fact that the other party was the master, he would have gone looking for information about the final battle a long time ago.

The autograph session was held in the middle of a square, because the comic has a large number of fans, the organizer also specially held several small events before the author's autograph.

Sonoko took Xiaolan and a group of children to participate in the small event, while Himura Ren, who was not interested in this, stood under the shade of a tree and looked at Bao boredly, and at the same time stared at Conan who was also staying here. Small eyes.

"Hey, where is big brother from? Why don't you go to those small activities?"

Flicking his feet in the air, Conan sat on the flower bed skillfully pretending to be a child, and asked innocently:

"Obviously big brother cosplays the protagonist of this comic, so that means big brother should be a very loyal fan?"

The left ear heard the words "big brother", and the right ear said "big brother". The sensitive Feicun Ren glanced at Conan who was pretending to be tender there, Wangtian took a deep breath, and then said directly:

"Can you speak well?"

"Isn't it uncomfortable to lift your throat like this?"

The swaying feet stopped, and it was Conan's turn to twitch in embarrassment, but he still pretended not to understand, blinked and continued to ask:

"Haha, what is big brother talking about?"

"Okay, stop trying."

Himura Ren, who had heard the whispers between Conan and Haibara Ai earlier, sighed, then rubbed the hair of the little boy in front of him, and said rather helplessly:

"Children have to look like children. What are you doing so precociously and sharply?"

"Uh…"

Conan, whose hair was rubbed, was stiff all over, but his mind turned rapidly, and a flash of light and thoughtfulness flashed in his eyes.

Is this a disguised admission that he has a problem?

Then is the knife on his waist just what he thought, a real knife?

"Who the hell are you?"

His disguise was exposed, Conan simply stopped acting, and simply asked curiously.

Anyway, the other party just felt that he was a bit precocious, and since Fei Cunren was brought by Yuanzi and had a very trustworthy manner, there was a high probability that he would not be a villain.

"you guess?"

Fei Cunren glanced at Conan, and replied vindictively, after all, who told this brat to harm his ears just now.

"Hey!"

Unexpectedly, Conan rolled his eyes when he got such a reply, subconsciously wanted to reply a few words, but his eyes stayed in the distance behind Feicun Ren, and then he said in a mixed tone of surprise:

"Hey, there are still people with this color of hair in this world. It's really insightful."

"Ok?"

Frowning, Fei Cunren turned his head and looked over casually, then his gaze remained still, and his expression was a little frozen and self-doubting.

That's... Ganluji Mitsuri?

No, Mitsuri should have black hair, why is the color of her hair changing to a gradient of pink and green now?
