The approaching night gradually fades away the last touch of golden color from the clouds.
Yagami Detective Agency.
At this moment, Himejima Yuno lifted the lid of the pot.
Inside the pot, the aroma of fresh ingredients mixed with boiling water steam billows out, and the unique mellow fat aroma of the beef dripping with soup can't help but whet your appetite.
"Well, Miss Sagawa, is it okay if I come too? Will it cost you too much?"
Chiba Yui looked at the deluxe version of the sukiyaki hot pot filled with ingredients that was almost overflowing, and asked cautiously.
"Oh, it's just a meal, don't take it too seriously."
Kosagawa Maho, who had been handling the ingredients all afternoon, waved his hand very generously.
She immediately turned around, glanced at the handsome face lying in the office chair not far away, resting with her eyes closed, and hummed softly.
"It's what we promised anyway, and I'm not the kind of person who refuses to pay."
"Hey, Ye Shen, come over and eat quickly, the pot is boiling."
Hearing this, Ye Shenkong opened his eyes.
He looked up at the time and sighed.
"Aren't you here yet? Can you hurry up? I have to go to school tomorrow..."
Yagami Sora looked at Kosagawa Maho with a slightly pitiful look and asked.
"Xiao Sagawa is on patrol. He often causes trouble to his teammates, right?"
"Huh? How did you know?"
Kosagawa Maho was startled, and then his expression suddenly changed.
"Could it be that you have met the captain?"
"No, the captain won't say such things to others. I understand, it's that guy Nohara, right? That guy has always been so hateful..."
It's a pity that Neon doesn't have an ID card, otherwise Maho Sagawa could have reported all the ID numbers of her teammates to herself...
Ye Shenkong silently picked up the teacup and took a sip of water.
Dong Dong.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the office door.
"Please come in."
Himejima Yuno, who was busy checking the ripeness of the ingredients, did not forget to raise her head and say hello.
Dong Dong.
The knocking on the door still didn't stop.
"I'll open the door."
Seeing this, Chiba Yui quickly stood up, walked to the door, reached out and opened the door.
Suddenly, her pupils shrank slightly.
Outside the threshold, stood a little boy with a pale face.
He was only five or six years old, with neatly combed bangs, and dark eye sockets that highlighted his weird face.
And in his right hand, he was holding a silver knife.
At this moment, seeing the door open, the boy turned sideways silently, passing by Chiba Yui's legs and entering the room.
But as soon as he took a step, Chiba Yui stopped him with his hand.
The little boy obviously did not expect that the other party would react like this. He raised his head and looked at Chiba Yui in surprise, with some confusion in his eyes.
At this moment, Chiba Yui looked down at the other party, with a hint of sternness in her tone.
"Kid, you need to ask for permission before entering other people's rooms. Hasn't anyone taught you this?"
"Wha...what?"
Hearing this, the little boy was so frightened that he almost dropped the knife in his hand and stared at Chiba Yui in shock.
"You...you can see me?"
"yes."
"Isn't this right? I...I'm not a human being."
The little boy stammered.
"I know."
Chiba Yui nodded seriously.
"And I don't think you can be seen in this room. There should be only one person."
How is this going?
Upon hearing this, the little boy suddenly turned to stone.
Looking at the other party's frightened expression, Chiba Yui comforted her patiently.
"Don't worry, as long as you have no ill intentions, we won't do anything to you."
"Oh, is it finally here?"
"Chiba-san, let him come in. I still have many things I want to ask him."
Looking at Chiba Yui who was talking to the air in front of him, a light flashed in Yagami's eyes.
"Hey? Does Yagami-kun have a date with this kid?"
Chiba Yui was stunned for a moment, then led the confused little boy into the office.
"Who? Is anyone here?"
Kosagawa Maho at the table was stunned for a moment, and then he immediately realized something.
She quickly closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, her pupils turned light blue again.
The next second, he couldn't help but let out a scream and hid on the sofa in a hurry.
"Eaaah!"
"Who are you?"
"If I'm not mistaken, he is the boy in the house that Detective Qingshan mentioned to you."
Before the little boy could say anything, Yagami Kong had already answered first.
Nani?!
Hearing this, Kosagawa Maho was shocked.
She pointed at the little boy in front of her and looked at Yashenkong in disbelief.
"Yakami, you said he is the boy from Detective Aoyama's family?"
"Do you...do you have any evidence?"
"As for the evidence, of course there is."
Ye Shenkong explained.
"I have investigated before. Detective Qingshan has remained single since his divorce. There has never been any news that he has a child."
"As a famous detective who is in the limelight, it is very difficult to hide this."
"So the kid who called him was probably an extraordinary event."
"The reason why Mr. Detective Aoyama exposed this matter to Mr. Sagawa to inspect you is probably because the other party has already targeted the inspection and is looking for an opportunity to attack him."
"ah?!"
Hearing this, Kosagawa Maho immediately opened his mouth.
"How could this happen? Detective Qingshan has obviously promised me that everything will be cooperated..."
"But it's just speculation at the moment." Ye Shenkong said.
"For the rest, you can only ask me."
As he spoke, Yagami's eyes moved to the hand held by Chiba Yuixu, and a malicious smile appeared on his lips.
As if by magic, he took out a big red bow from his pocket.
"Chiba-san, can you help me put this bow on him?"
...
Aoyama Detective Agency.
At this moment, Kogoro Aoyama was sitting behind the table, absently reading today's newspaper.
From time to time, his eyes glanced at the mobile phone on the table.
I thought to myself secretly.
Isshin has been gone for two hours and he still hasn't come back. It seems that Sagawa is a lot more troublesome than he thought.
As expected of someone with the same power as Isshin, he should not be underestimated.
However, Kogoro Aoyama was still very reassured about Isshin's strength.
Since Yixin can do what he says, there won't be any problems.
While thinking, the screen of his mobile phone suddenly lit up.
Seeing this, Kogoro Aoyama threw away the newspaper and quickly picked up his cell phone.
When I saw a completely unfamiliar phone number on it, I couldn't hide the disappointment on my face.
But he picked it up anyway and said casually.
"Hello, Aoyama Detective Agency."
"Hello, is this Mr. Kogoro Aoyama?"
An unfamiliar male voice came from the receiver.
"Ah, I'm sorry, I have some urgent cases to deal with right now. If it's convenient, please wait..."
Aoyama Kogoro was about to find an excuse to hang up the phone, but the other party spoke first.
"Mr. Qingshan, listen to me, your child is in my hands now."
"If you don't want anything to happen to him, just follow my instructions."
I thought it was a commission, but I didn't expect it to be a blackmail call?
Aoyama Kogoro raised his eyebrows and said sarcastically.
"Oh, you dare to blackmail me, a famous detective. You are very brave."
"I'm sorry, Mr. Kidnapper, I have always lived alone."
"Well, I'll let him tell you himself."
There was no ink on the other side either, so he handed the phone over.
"Here, phone."
The next second, the expression on Kogoro Aoyama's face suddenly froze.
The cry of a little boy came from the mobile phone.
