Untitled Conan II

Just by looking at her smiling eyes, I felt that my originally chaotic mood had settled down.

About Xiaoyu, I have no way to tell anyone, and I have no way to ask anyone for help, I can only keep entangled in my heart by myself——

I think he also understands the things I can't say, the painful guilt that I can't tell anyone; these days, he didn't ask anything, he didn't say anything, he just stayed with me quietly, confirming from time to time Where I am, it seems that as long as I'm sure I'm still within his sight, he doesn't care about anything.

I remember a passage that said: If it is that person, he will understand if you don’t tell it; if it’s not that person, it’s useless to say it.If it's that person, it doesn't matter if you don't explain it; if it's not that person, explanations are unnecessary.If it is that person, he will not leave if he does not stay; if it is not that person, he will not be able to stay.If it is that person, you will meet naturally before you wait; if it is not that person, you will get lost where you are.

I think he was that guy to me.

Inspector Shiratori hurried in to tell us that the red wine he had left in the storage room for today's tasting had been broken.

Everyone in the living room was shocked.As everyone came to the wine cellar together, they saw that the bottle of wine that was just visited by Police Officer Shiratori before had been smashed to the ground, the wine-red liquid spilled all over the ground, and the air was filled with A smell of red wine.

Sniffing, I squatted down subconsciously, squinted at the red wine for a while, and then turned to look at the broken wine bottle.

——This is not the smell of old wine, and the bottle label on the wine bottle is also new.

Obviously, the wine was dropped before it broke, right?

But then again, who broke the wine?

Well, whether it's the three children who have been muttering together and full of guilt, or Uncle Mori who is drunk with a bottle of wine and doesn't remember at all, or Hattori Heiji who has been in a state of extreme trance today, or The garden that sneaked out with a paper bag just now...

Anyway, nothing to do with me, right?Even if the red wine is still there, I'm not of the legal age to drink in Japan, am I?

I unscrupulously folded my arms and leaned against the wall to watch the excitement.

Facts have proved that those suspicious actions were not without reason——

The children dropped a grape in the wine cellar, which attracted a little mountain mouse.The little mountain squirrel was frightened by Uncle Mori who walked into the wine cellar drunk and jumped into the gap where the wine was placed. When the uncle put the wine bottle back, he put it in the wrong place and blocked the hole. In the end, the boy Hattori wanted to take the wine out Take a closer look, I was startled by the little guy who escaped suddenly and dropped the wine bottle...

Before all of this, of course, was the cute prank of the garden girl-swapping the bottle of wine-

However, at the behest of Aunt Eri, Hattori concealed the fact that he broke the wine, and all the evidence points to Uncle Mori who doesn't remember what he did——

So, everyone is happy—except that Uncle was banned from drinking by Aunt Yingli.

The trip to Karuizawa ended in this relaxed and pleasant atmosphere.Back in my room, facing the computer, looking at the investigation data on the screen, I knew that what should be faced would be faced after all, and nothing could be solved by escaping.

"Good morning, sister Xiaochun...huh?"

The weather is getting colder, and getting up in the morning is becoming more and more difficult, especially now that people are forbidden to play the piano, and when they have nothing to do, they often lie under the quilt until noon.

This happened several times, and I almost fainted because of hypoglycemia because I hadn’t eaten breakfast the day before. I was finally ordered by Xiaolan to get up before [-] o’clock every day and go to the office for breakfast. Alarm clock duty.

So, I got up very early in the morning, and after eating the delicious breakfast carefully prepared by Xiaolan at the office, I ran to the coffee shop on a whim.

Cough... As I said a long time ago, I am not a competent boss. These days, except for the daily turnover and account entry, I have almost never been in the store. Sheng Daochun has always been busy, and thanks to these days Because of the cultural festival, she has no class and can stay here all the time.

However, when I opened the door and entered today, I saw beside the bar, besides Sheng Daojun who was wiping the cup, there was also a boy sitting on a chair at the bar and chatting with her, judging by their expressions, the two chatted quite well joy.

I never thought that there would be any intersection between these two people. I looked at them in a daze, and when I saw the two people who noticed me and looked over, I just came back to my senses and waved with a smile, "Brother Afeng, what are you doing?" coming?"

"What? You're not welcome?" The boy raised an eyebrow and asked back.

"How could it be~" Smiling and leaning over, I looked at him mischievously, then glanced at Xiaochun who was wiping the cup with his head down, and whispered with the back of his hand covering his mouth, "I'm just afraid~ the meaning of a drunkard Not drinking~”

"Drunkard, what kind of wine?" Hei Yu opened his eyes and looked at me suspiciously.

On the other hand, Sheng Daojun seemed to hear clearly, his hands trembled, and the glass that was being wiped was almost caught by me.

"Ah, sister Xiaochun, why are you panicking?" I blinked puzzledly, and I put the cup away, and stared at her with interest while resting my chin in my hand.

"No," she seemed to take a deep breath, then looked up and smiled again, and said to me seemingly calmly, "The cake that is going to be displayed today has the final decorations, I'm going to the kitchen first."

Said, fled in despair.

"Well~" Nodding, I looked at her flustered look, revealing a sudden realization.

"No what!"

Someone knocked on my forehead, I puffed up my cheeks, covered my forehead and looked suspiciously at Heiyu who was looking at me with a half-smile.

"Where did you go, girl? Xiaochun and I met a long time ago." He glanced at me and said.

"Eh? We've known each other before?" Looking at the ceiling, I recalled the information about Jun Shengdao that I found earlier, it seems... She did live in Chiba before the fourth grade of elementary school, and came here because of her father's job transfer. Mihua Town was transferred to Didan Primary School.

"Then when it opened last time, why didn't you even say hello?" I asked, blinking.

"Oh, that time~" He scratched his head, as if a little embarrassed, "I didn't notice her, and I haven't seen her for so long, I didn't recognize her for a while. If I didn't come here a few days ago to wait for you, and her We chatted a few words, maybe I haven’t remembered yet! Haha..."

"Hmm~" I sighed subconsciously, then shrank my head back to avoid his outstretched hand, I grinned and said, "Brother Afeng, you and sister Xiaochun...are they the so-called childhood sweethearts? "

He snorted, turned to rub my hair, and said, "You can say whatever you like!"

"Ah, you still don't admit it?" I lowered my head and slipped out from under his arm. I turned around and made a face, and said jokingly, "Is it because I am interested in him? Hehe..."

It's rare to see him blushing, with an expression of anger and shame, rushing over to catch me. I jumped up and down to hide and hide, and finally was forced to have nowhere to escape, so I grabbed a gap and ran to the door. He pushed the door and rushed out.

However, after looking at the back, before I ran out of the coffee shop, I collided with a person who was passing by the door.

Cactus flower murder case ([-])

"Little sister, are you alright?"

Because of the force of the collision, I fell to the ground. Before I could recover, a slender hand stretched out in front of my eyes.

Looking up with that hand, I saw a gentle woman squatting halfway in front of me, with a warm smile on her haggard and thin face.

"...Yeah." Nodding, I stood up holding her hand, then smiled sheepishly, "I'm sorry."

"Well, it's okay. Be careful when you walk in the future~" She shook her head and said gently, "Then I'll go first."

"Well, goodbye auntie."

Watching the woman leave, Hei Yu had already chased me and ran out, probably seeing the scene just now, he held my shoulder with some concern and asked, "Why are you so careless, did you get hurt?"

"Well, I'm fine." Shaking my head and patting the dust on the hem of my skirt, I answered absent-mindedly.

That man... so familiar...

I looked thoughtfully at the direction the woman was leaving, then turned my gaze to the Maori Detective Agency upstairs from the coffee shop.

I must have seen that person somewhere, but I can't remember at once... When exactly...

As I was trying to remember, I saw Uncle Maori running down the stairs next to the coffee shop leading to the office in a hurry. He didn't seem to notice us, and he stretched out his hand to hail a taxi and walked away.

She should be the client this time, right?I don't know what kind of commission it is.

While I was in a daze, I saw another small figure running out of the stairs. When he saw me, he stopped, turned around and came to me.

"Brother Heiyu, good morning!" He called out sweetly, blinked, looked at him innocently, and then at me, "Sister Xiaoyou."

"Conan, good morning." Hei Yu, who is very used to getting along with children, patted his head with a smile, "Where are you going to play in such a hurry to go out?"

Hearing this, Conan rolled his eyes and shook his head with a smile, "That's right, that aunt just forgot her handkerchief in the office, I'll go and return it to her!"

As he spoke, he waved the handkerchief in his hand to prove it.

"That aunt..." I interrupted and asked, "Ke
