In the name of love [Comprehensive]

Your eyes paused for a while on the talking Hyotei boys, and then looked again at Saiki Kusuo who was staring intently at the popular desserts in the window.

Although separated by a long distance, you can still see the curvature of the corner of his mouth, that rare appearance that has faded from the calmness of the past, and you don't have the heart to destroy it just by looking at it.

"Excuse me--"

The waiter who has been looking at you finally couldn't help asking, "Have you considered it?"

With an expression as if you were going to die bravely, you said to the clerk with difficulty, "Well, I'm sorry, please help me get a copy of all the desserts in the store."

The clerk was also taken aback by you.

You must know that the price of this dessert shop is not affordable for ordinary high school students.

You avoided the probing eyes of the clerk, and walked slowly to Saiki Kusuo's side and tugged at his sleeve, "Kusuo."

[...Your pocket money is more than I imagined. ]

He is talking to you silently.

What are you thinking, in fact, he has no way of knowing, but everything about you is not as invisible as Ran Tangli.

Just as Saiki Kusuo expected, your body trembled unsurprisingly, and your head drooped.

Soon, you raised your head again and smiled softly at him, "It's okay, as long as you're happy~"

With a very sweet and gentle voice, you bit your lips lightly to meet Saiki Kusuo's gaze, your eyes flickering, "Why do you keep looking at me?"

Saiki Kusuo turned his head expressionlessly and walked into the dessert shop.

next life...

Be a beautiful girl no matter what.

He said firmly to himself again.

Freshly baked blueberry cake was brought to the table.

Blueberry jam is sprinkled on the soft and delicious muffins, and it is also dotted with fresh and tender fruit slices. You subconsciously look up at Saiki Kusuo, and he also shows that super cute expression that cannot be described in words.

Looking at the glossy jam, Saiki Kusuo decisively took a piece with a fork and began to eat.

As if respecting the dessert in front of him as an opponent, every mouthful of Kusuo Saiki seems to have sparkling special effects behind him.

"Well, it's really delicious."

You imitated his appearance and tasted a little bit, the taste is not greasy at all, the lightness of the cream and the sweetness are mixed together in a subtle way.

To be honest, you really want to eat all the desserts on the table with Saiki Kusuo, but as a girl, you have an inexplicable insistence on your weight. Every time you eat a piece of cake or chocolate biscuit, you feel that you are committing a crime, so you have to fight hard Drink iced lemonade to distract yourself.

Time passed by minute by minute.

Even Kusuo Saiki, who loses some of his sanity when he encounters desserts, has noticed something is wrong with you.

You are undoubtedly very welcome.

You can see your popularity from the intentional or unintentional glances of people around you and the continuous delivery of sweets on the table even though they have already eaten.

It's completely different from the perfect goddess Shinmi Teruhashi that Saiki Kusuo knew, and the way you don't speak clearly makes people feel a little unapproachable.

The drooping eyelashes also cast light-colored shadows like a fan, and the hands are fiddling with straws, and the light pink nails also reflect the light of shells because of the sunlight outside.

"Ah, Kusuo, have you finished eating?"

After being stared at by Qi Mu for a long time, you raised your head for a long time, and you smashed all the ice cubes in the glass and ate them all.

So embarrassing.

You even ate the ice cubes together, you were annoyed at your impolite behavior in your heart, and quickly raised a smile: "Kusuo, wait here, I'll go over there to buy some chestnut cakes, you can take them back to Saiki Sir and Aunt Saiki."

——What's the matter with her tone of coaxing children.

Saiki Kusuo showed dissatisfaction.

You bought the cake back, and found that Kusuo Saiki was just staring at the scenery outside the window indifferently with his chin propped up. You paused for a long time and he didn't respond, and finally waved in front of him: "Kusuo, you are in a daze again and didn't listen. I have spoken."

"Kusuo, I suddenly discovered that you still have a superpower—" You couldn't hide your concern for him in your eyes, "That is to ignore what others say anytime and anywhere."

[Because there is no need to listen to what many people say. ]

Saiki Kusuo nodded and answered immediately, took the cake back from you, [Let's go home. ]

You just watched Kusuo Saiki walk past you, he is obviously a boy with fair skin and clear facial features.

But because he deliberately kept himself out of the spotlight, no one in the lively dessert shop noticed it.

——Why do you seem to be more and more like someone in your memory?

You turned your back and thought silently for a long time.

[Pity sound. ]

After coming out of the dessert shop for a long time, this is also the first time you hear Saiki Kusuo not addressing you by honorifics or surnames, but simply calling you by your first name.

You were stunned for a moment, and looked at him seriously, you could vaguely see the proper curve of his mouth.

[For you. ]

[Gift for Dummies, on the side, the one in the white box. ]

He also raised his eyebrows and looked at you.

Following his voice, you turned your head again and walked towards the steps not far from you, where there was a white gift box.

The moment you curiously opened the gift box, your astonishment turned into surprise in the next moment. What was in the box was actually the black lace-up flat shoes endorsed by the model in the magazine a few days ago.

It seems that the smile of Saiki Kusuo who seemed to be hallucinating just now is not fake?

You want to thank him happily, but you can't see him behind you for a long time, only the pedestrians who come and go look hurried.

It's really Saiki Kusuo's inherent style.

Thinking of this, your face also blushed unknowingly.

When you return to the Maori office, the sunlight in the evening is no longer as strong as in the morning. Stepping briskly up the steps and opening the door, you are surprised to find that the office is already full of people.

In addition to Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko who just came back from studying in Kyoto, Kudo Shinichi who did not know when his body recovered and became Edogawa Conan, and Amuro who was supposed to work in the downstairs coffee shop but was sitting there at the moment through.

The few of them have already changed into more formal clothes, and it seems that you who are still wearing a uniform are a bit out of place.

Seeing you, Suzuki Sonoko immediately waved: "Ah, Lianyin, why did you come back? Didn't you agree to go to Uncle's auction tonight?"

You are a little dumbfounded: "Auction?"

"That's right~" Sonoko Suzuki put his hands together exaggeratedly, "Master Kidd sent a notice letter specially last week, ah~ I don't know if there is a chance for Master Kidd to steal my girly heart tonight ?”

Sonoko Suzuki remained unchanged.

Even though she already has a nominal boyfriend, Makoto Kyogoku, she will always be in high spirits when it comes to Kaitou Kidd.

You looked at her excited look and didn't know what to say, you just took the cake out of the paper bag and put it in the refrigerator.

"Lianyin... Sister Lianyin, what are you doing today?" Conan came to your side and looked up at you.

"Well, it's nothing," you almost blurted out Kudo Shinichi's name, but when you saw Mao Lilan who was comforting Suzuki Sonoko over there, you hesitated for a moment, bent down and pinched Conan's nose: "There is a school near our school." I went to a dessert shop and I went there to buy cakes, but there were so many people that it took me a long time to line up."

In fact, this sentence was intentionally or unintentionally addressed to Toru Amuro who was sitting on the other side. After you put the cake down, you walked up to him and said, "I'm sorry, Toru-kun, I didn't tell you this because I found it troublesome." .”

"Tou, Tou-kun?" Conan seemed innocent, but he was actually a little anxious, and mentioned the address you just said, "Sister Lianyin! When did you get on so well with Brother Amuro?"

"That's right?" Even the carefree Sonoko realized that something was wrong, "Didn't Lianyin still call her Mr. Amuro when we went to Kyoto?"

"This is a secret between me and Lianyin."

Toru Amuro raised his index finger to his lips, blinked at you, smiled slightly, and changed the subject again: "Hurry up and change your clothes, Sonoko just told us, what exactly is Mr. Suzuki going to do this time?" How can we catch Kaito Kid?"

……

When you come out in a light purple dress with off-the-shoulder——

Suzuki Sonoko has already told more than half of Suzuki Jirokichi's plan.

In short, apart from hiring Kogoro Mouri, the nemesis of the so-called Phantom Thief Kidd, to the auction venue in advance, this plan has another interesting move.

The organizer specifically requires that male and female partners participate in the auction. Before entering the venue, the two people receive their own number plates at the same time, and use their own brains to judge who the partner with the same number as their own is.

When the security guard checks his identity, he can only enter if he can say the same number as the other party. This at least prevents the possibility of Kidd imitating others to commit crimes.

After all, there is only one strange thief, but there must be two people to enter the auction site, even if Kidd disguised himself as someone else, but the number plates were issued at the beginning, and the two parties did not know each other's numbers No matter how powerful Kidd is, he still can't guess whether the other party's number is the same as his own.

After hearing the plan, you frowned subconsciously, while Toru Amuro couldn't help laughing out loud.

It is too difficult to realize this plan flawlessly.

Toru Amuro raised his eyebrows. He had no interest in Kidd the Kaitou. He just accidentally saw a mafia organization that he had been paying attention to in attendance. That's why Guan Yuanzi asked for the ticket for this auction.

He pursed his lips and tilted his head: "Hey, Lianyin, how about I be your partner?"

"Eh? But, isn't the number plate only available at the scene? I promise Tou-kun now, what if I find out that my partner is someone else after getting the plate..." You are very embarrassed, but Amuro Toru looks indifferent and persistent looking straight at you,

"I'll find a way to find you."

"Brother Anshi is really confident in himself. Besides," Conan curled his lips, "Sister Lianyin is not an idiot, she must have a way to find a partner with her number plate, right?"

Toru Amuro put away his two-part smile, his eyes were full of ridicule, "If it wasn't for me, it wouldn't be Conan-kun."

On the contrary, Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko were a little confused, and they didn't understand how the two would fight against each other.

Looking at the incomparably luxurious building and the black and gold-plated gate in front of you, you once again marvel at the strength of the Suzuki consortium.

The auction this time was held in a hotel of the Suzuki family that has not been released to the public. The expensive luxury cars in the parking lot outside and the celebrities who often appear in business magazines will make you dizzy. Coupled with the low-key and stylish decoration, everything shows how rich the Suzuki family is.

The auction was held on the top floor. At this moment, everyone entering the venue had already taken their number plates and gathered in the hall.

There is a smell of good perfume in the air, fashionable young women walk past you from time to time, and some celebrities are toasting and chatting, the band is playing soothing music, everything is flowing quietly.

25.

Here's the number on your number plate, and you're a little confused.

According to Sonoko Suzuki, everyone will have reminders related to numbers. For example, the chain on your wrist at the moment has exactly 25 pearls. That is to say, your partner must also have such hints before you can Let you find it, the two of you can participate in the auction together.

Originally, you should not have to worry. After all, before entering the hall, Toru Amuro swore that you must be his partner.

But now, a bigger problem is surfacing.

You are almost annoyed to death by this group of people trying to strike up a conversation, but Toru Amuro ran off to nowhere, and he was nowhere to be found in the entire hall.

After hastily rejecting someone again, you quickly glanced at your surroundings, then quickly lowered your head and walked to the landing balcony.

"Well, it's so cold..."

The outdoor temperature is lower than you imagined, and the moonlight shines coldly on the balcony, with a silver hazy feeling.

Your bare shoulders and slightly protruding shoulder blades are exposed, and your soft hair hangs behind your shoulders, but it can't withstand the attack of the night wind, and the coolness spreads from your shoulders all the way down. You don't know it is It's not because I ate too many ice cubes at the dessert shop today, and my stomach hurts right now.

Suddenly, a dark coat appeared on your shoulders, protecting you from the cold.

At a loss, you turned your head to look at the brown-haired boy beside you, his eyes drooped, and he smiled slightly, "Lianyin, you'll catch a cold outside."

Do... Do you want to respond...

You only know that the handsome young man in front of you is Terada Lianyin's nominal fiancé Baima Tan, but you have no contact with this person in the game, and you don't even know much about his basic information, except to stare at him in a daze. You have a gentle smile on your face, but you don't know what to do with yourself.

"Thank you, thank you." You bit your lower lip, your eyes locked on the silver-gray traces cast by the moonlight on the carved railing, and you didn't dare to look up.

"Sure enough, I guessed correctly. There is your most wanted violin in this auction, and you will definitely participate."

Bai Ma Tan's smile never dissipated, and he could still see the beautiful collarbone line under the collar of his two-button shirt.

Even the side face is impeccably beautiful.

He carefully combed your ears and hair for you, and said softly: "The dress is very beautiful, it suits you very well."

An unnatural blush quickly appeared on your cheeks, and the white horse froze for a moment, as if surprised by your obedient and docile performance, but his signature handsome smile deepened, "Is it my illusion, Lianyin seems to be different from before So much the same."

"No. No," you shook your head hastily, then frowned in frustration.

It is too difficult to deal with characters who have not been raided.

You don't know Baima Tan's character at all, and you don't know the past between him and Terada Lianyin. Apart from nodding and shaking your head occasionally according to Baima Tan's words, you don't dare to do anything else.

"Lianyin, you will be my partner in this auction."

You blink.

"You are number 25 and I am number 27, but I can find another girl with number 27 and let her exchange with you."

"Oh, but it's not a good idea to do that."

How to do……

You looked at his face getting closer and closer, and felt like you were about to stop breathing.

Swear to the sky, you are irresistible to the charm of the beautiful boy, if Toru Amuro doesn't come back, you think you may bow to Tan Baima's beauty in the next second.

"Pity!"

The voice behind interrupted the ambiguous atmosphere between you and Tan Baima, and you turned around quickly, and it was Keigo Atobe who looked a little strange.

"Atobe—!" You ran over happily, "Are you feeling better?"

Atobe was a little dazed by your question, and he turned his gaze from White Horse Tan back to you: "Hmm...? Oh, no problem."

"Lianyin, let's be my uncle's partner." Atobe, who had always been confident, was uncharacteristically, and the corner of his mouth twitched, revealing a smile that was not the same as before.
