"It is undeniable that Kudo Shinichi's seemingly pretentious and reasoning-like attitude is not just for the limelight. It is precisely because Kudo Shinichi is such a person that he can always guard you silently!"
Gao Yuan said seriously.
When Xiaolan heard this, she couldn't help but be stunned. The tears that were originally swirling in her eyes also fell down at a loss, but there was another kind of inexplicable tenderness and touch on her face——
"So... Shinichi at that time..."
Xiaolan was shocked and speechless. Xiaolan didn't know what to say for a while.
"Well... sometimes I really feel that it's not easy for you and Kudo Shinichi to be childhood sweethearts until now..."
Gao Yuan seemed to be planning to leave it at that. He had no intention of continuing the topic and instead said:
"Ah...it seems to be going a bit far. I don't know if saying this will help you? Regarding Conan liking you, how should you face it, and the feelings of the children..."
"I see……"
Hearing this, Xiaolan nodded seriously, and then said:
Conan, on the other hand, agreed wholeheartedly, and then separated from Xiao Ai and returned to the Maori Detective Agency alone——
At the same time, in Building B of the twin-tower skyscraper, Gao Yuan looked a little hurried after watching Ruyue Fengshui's figure get on the elevator, so he followed him into the elevator and faced this person.
The old man greeted.
In this way, the exchange in the coffee shop came to an end for the time being, and Xiaolan was ready to go home to make dinner for Kogoro Mori and Conan, while Gao Yuan had something else to do and did not return directly to Akechi's house.
The city councilor Ohki Iwamatsu, who had arrived here in advance, looked horrified. He looked at the person who appeared in front of him and backed away in panic. He seemed to have seen a scene that frightened him——
However, after retreating to the wall with no way out, Omu Imsong looked at the figure in front of him, panicked, and prayed for the last hope. He couldn't help but say this, hoping to get some room for negotiation——
"The guest Mio invited that day?"
Seeing Conan's attitude, Xiao Ai couldn't help admonishing him.
In this regard, Ruyue Fengshui was a little confused when she saw Gao Yuan who had also arrived in the building that had not yet opened. She didn't seem to immediately remember who Gao Yuan belonged to, and asked with a slightly serious expression:
Immediately, Xiaolan hurriedly put away the photo album, her expression was a little solemn, but she pretended that nothing happened and walked towards the kitchen——
Mitsuhiko and Ayumi!
Hearing this, Conan, who was listening to the conversation between the two, felt relieved at first. He felt that what should he do if Xiaolan realized that "Conan liked her"? It turned out that these things were caused by Mitsuhiko.
He told Ayumi, which made Conan a little surprised.
Saying this, Gao Yuan's expression seemed a little natural, but he had other concerns in his heart——
Seeing that Xiaolan seemed to have some ideas, Gao Yuan nodded, and then asked curiously:
"But how did you, Miss Xiaolan, detect the feelings of these children?"
At this time, Xiaolan, who had returned to the office earlier than Conan, seemed to miss the topic about her kindergarten days when chatting with Gao Yuan just now, which made Xiaolan miss her very much.
I found a photo album from my kindergarten days and looked through it with some emotion.
However, it was precisely this move that caused Xiaolan's expression to change slightly when she looked at the photos of her young self and her friends such as Kudo Shinichi.
At this time, Conan also returned to the Maori Detective Agency, and after entering the door, he shouted like this.
"actually……"
"Really? But at least she already knows about this, and she will probably care about your behavior in the future. You have to be careful in the future!"
——"Anyway, could you please Mr. Mingzhi to keep this matter a secret for me? After all, those two children trust me so much that they even come to me to discuss such matters..."
…
"Um……"
After waiting for a moment, Ruyue Fengshui said with a somewhat majestic tone, and then reached out and pressed the elevator floor button——
Faced with the situation he just heard, as Xiaolan and Gao Yuan left, Conan finally breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't have to worry about being discovered by Xiaolan and the others beside him, so he couldn't help but sigh:
"Fortunately, I thought it was Xiaolan who noticed something. It would be fine if it wasn't..."
A few days later, under nightfall, in a suite on the 67th floor of Building B of the Twin Towers skyscraper in Nishitama City——
At this time, Xiaolan asked Gao Yuan with some requests.
"Miss Tokiwa is here to discuss something with me, so she came here... Unexpectedly, I happened to meet Mr. Kisaragi. Are you also here to see Miss Tokiwa?"
After all, this is a high-end hotel with very good sound insulation, and since it is still before opening, there are no waiters nearby, so it is impossible to ask for help from the outside world.
"Who are you……"
"Children's feelings are simple and sincere, whether it is Conan, Ayumi or Mitsuhiko...and Xiao Ai. I will handle it properly..."
But obviously, the figure in front of him didn't care about what Da Mu Yansong said. As the light of the dagger in his hand flashed and Da Mu Yansong screamed in pain, the blood splattered like a straight line onto the wardrobe behind him.
Above, the big wood rock pine is just like this, losing its vitality...
Smiling, Conan explained.
Speaking of this, Xiaolan replied with some embarrassment:
"This is what Mitsuhiko and Ayumi told me. I didn't expect their relationship to be so...a bit complicated?"
"Mr. Kisaragi, I happened to meet you here."
"It's easy to understand, after all, Yuantai likes eel rice!"
So, in the coffee shop, there were only Conan and Xiao Ai who followed them here secretly.
…
"It seems that children's observation skills are still keen..."
——So, in the end, it was not Xiaolan who noticed anything, but Mitsuhiko and Ayumi...
In response, Gao Yuan just nodded, understanding what Xiao Lan meant, but silently said in his heart:
"But you have already said it..."
"I'm back!"
"I have something to ask her about."
"Everything is easy to discuss, I can do whatever you want..."
Faintly, Gao Yuan introduced himself:
In this way, Xiaolan expressed her feelings.
"Wise and lofty."
"Get ready to eat, Conan..."
"What, what are you doing!"
In response, Xiao Ai couldn't help but sigh when she heard the reason why Xiao Lan had such thoughts, but then she murmured in confusion:
"But why do you still need to bring me with you...and you haven't talked about Yuantai yet?"
68th floor.
This is the top floor of Building B, and it is also the residence of Mio Tokiwa.
Seeing this, Gao Yuan didn't say much. After all, if he wanted to see Tokiwa Mio, he would naturally go to the 68th floor, not the floors below that belong to the hotel——
But today is the day for Damu Yansong to move in here. When he saw Ruyue Fengshui coming here, Gao Yuan was naturally cautious.
After all, the person in front of me is the murderer in the original work!
