131. What is a friend

"If you have time, you can come and play often.\" spent the morning at the "Blue Parrot" billiards bar in Terai.Then after having lunch together, in the afternoon, because of the doctor, Terai closed the door early, and drank tea and chatted together in a nearby teahouse, and the time passed like this.

\"Hehe, I will.\" The doctor smiled goodbye before mobilizing his Volkswagen Beetle to leave.

"Huh?\" Xiaobai on the side watched through the mirror as a young man ran to Terai's side.

\"Old man, I've finally found you.\" A young man in a tunic shouted at Terai.

"Master, why are you here?" Terai looked surprised as he looked at the young man.

\"What?,It's about to be the time of the next announcement.,I didn't look for the props you wanted to prepare in advance.I went to the store to look for you.,I didn't expect it to be open.So I walked around.,I didn't expect to find you.,You told me you forgot about it.\" The young man said dissatisfiedly to Terai.

\"Hehe, I'm really sorry, Master Kaidou, because I received an old friend, so I didn't open the store in the afternoon.\" Terai smiled embarrassedly.

\"Oh... Don't talk about this.Old man, are the props ready for the next performance?\" The boy who was called Kaito by Terai looked at the yellow Volkswagen Beetle that had long disappeared into the street, and then turned around and asked with a grin.

"It's ready, let's go with the old age.\" Terai said as he led Kaito to the "Blue Parrot" bar.

"Why did that person look so familiar just now?\" As the Doctor drove back in his Volkswagen Beetle, Xiaobai was the one who thought about what he saw through the mirror as he left.

"What are you thinking?\" At an intersection, the doctor who was looking at the red light stopped the car and took the time to look at the white next to him.

\"It's okay, I'm just thinking about when I'll be able to go to Grandpa Terai's next time to play.\" Xiaobai looked at the doctor and replied with a smile.

"Hehe, go when you want, I think Terai will welcome you.\" The doctor replied with a smile.

\"Hmm.\" Xiaobai nodded.

And on the other side, the time shifts to noon

\"Sister Yami.\" In the rice flower bank, Ayumi and her party walked straight towards the counter of a female clerk.

\"Oh, it's Ayumi.\" The woman who was called Masami by Ayumi looked at Ayumi and shouted.

\"Sister Masami, we're here again.\" Yuan Tai shouted with a big grin.

"Motota, be quiet in public places.\" Mitsuhiko reminded from the side.

\"Hmm...\" Yuan too looked left and right.

\"Hehe.\" Watching Yuantai's movements, everyone present smiled.

\"Sister Masami, I'm going to deposit my New Year's money.\" After Mitsuhiko received the number plate, it was Masami Hirota who was in charge of receiving them.

\"Mitsuhiko is so good, I have saved all the money for the New Year.\" Motota looked at the banknotes that Mitsuhiko handed to Maami and said enviously.

"Whoever told you to buy eel rice with all your New Year's money.\" Conan muttered from the side.

"The eel rice is delicious.\" Motota seemed to be so sharp in his ears that he could hear Conan's whispering.

"Oh, okay, it's not too early.I'll treat you to lunch.\" After Masami finished her business, she looked at the time pointed by her watch, stood up and put the departing sign on the counter.

"Wouldn't that be bad.\" Ayumi asked.

\"Hehe, it's okay.I'll go change my clothes first, you guys wait for me outside.\" Masami laughed and left.

\"Sister Masami's people are so nice.\" Outside the bank, Motota said with a smile.

\"yes, and the people are beautiful.\" Mitsuhiko also chimed in.

\"...\" Looking at Motota and Mitsuhiko, Conan shook his head helplessly.

\"Ayumi, what's wrong with you?\" When Conan turned his head to look at Ayumi, he realized that Ayumi had her head down and didn't know what she was thinking.

\"It's been a long time since I've been with us, does he hate us?\" Ayumi asked, looking up at Conan.

\"Uh.\" Conan was stunned.

\"Yes.\" Motota and Mitsuhiko, who had been discussing it very happily, also nodded.

"Don't worry, Xiaobai won't think like that.\" Conan said to Ayumi.

"But he hasn't been with us in a long time.\" Ayumi said as she looked at Conan.

"Yes, even if we went to the doctor's house today, he wasn't at home.\" Yuan Tai chimed in.

"So didn't I say that he and the Doctor went to see the Doctor's old friend.\" Conan explained.

"I think he's just avoiding us.\" Mitsuhiko has his own opinion.

\"That's it.,It's clear that the doctor went to see his friend.\Bai should come to us.\" Yuan Tai also said his opinion.

\"Sure enough, Xiaobai hates us.\" Ayumi muttered in a depressed mood.

"Hey, what's wrong with you? listless.\" Masami changed into her overalls and put on a lady's formal suit.

"They're just overthinking.\" Conan explained.

\"Well, what's going on?\" Masami was a little confused, it seemed that she invited them to dinner herself, there was nothing to think about.

\"There's a friend who's been in trouble lately and rarely spends time with us.\" Conan replied.

\"What do you mean by something, I think he's just famous, so he forgets about us.\" As if thinking of something, Yuan Tai said with his hands in his arms.

"Motota, you're going a little too far, aren't you?" Mitsuhiko said.

\"Don't you think so.Hmph, I think Xiaobai is famous, and he thinks our identities are different, so he doesn't play with us.\" Yuan Tai looked at Mitsuhiko and said.

\"...\" Mitsuhiko was silent.

\"Hmph, if Xiaobai is like this, we won't talk to him...\" Yuan Tai clasped his hands, as if to express his dissatisfaction, but did not wait for him to finish.

\"Motota.\" Ayumi clearly wanted to say something.

\"Motota.\" Masami seemed to react, ready to stop Motota.

"That's enough.\" Conan exclaimed.

\"...\" The group all looked at Conan.

\"Genta, have you forgotten the gift that Xiaobai gave you when he came back from the United States?\" Conan said as he looked at Genta.

\"Gift...\" Motota and Mitsuhiko said to themselves.

\"Yes, gifts.\" Conan replied in the affirmative.

\"Gift.\" Ayumi touched the pink headband on her head with her hand, as if thinking of something, and a smile appeared on her face.

\"Perhaps, Xiaobai has been really busy lately.\" Mitsuhiko raised his head and said to Motota.

\"yes, it's a celebrity after all.\" Yuan Tai also nodded.

\"I really thought about it too much.\" Conan said in his heart.

\"Okay, I'll give him a gift when Xiaobai comes back.\" seemed to decide something, Yuan Tai exclaimed.

"But what should we give? We don't have much money.\" Mitsuhiko said.

\"Xiaobai likes chocolate the most, shall we send chocolate?\" Ayumi also joined.

\"Hey...\" Conan was a little helpless, and it seemed that he was still dissatisfied with Xiaobai just now.

\"Hehe, can you tell me about that friend of yours?\" Masami also got involved.

\"Okay.\" Ayumi immediately responded.

\"Then let's go to the restaurant first, let's talk while eating.\" Masami smiled.

\"Okay.\" Yuan Tai and his party shouted.

2-chome 22, Yonka-cho

"Hmm.Why are you here?\" Opening the door and looking at Yuan Tai and his party with a hippie smile behind their backs, Xiaobai was a little puzzled.

"Xiaobai, this is a gift for you.\" Yuan Tai and the others stretched out their hands behind their backs, and what they held in their hands was a box of beautifully packaged chocolates.

\"Hmm, what is the festival today?\" Looking at the chocolate handed over by Yuantai, Xiaobai asked suspiciously.

"Let's eat.\" Mitsuhiko said from the side.

\"yes, yes.\" Yuan Tai echoed.

\"Hmm.\" Xiaobai looked at Conan, hoping that the other party would tell him what was going on.

"Let's eat.\" Conan didn't intend to explain anything to Xiaobai, but said with a smile.

\"Let's come in first.\" Xiaobai turned and walked inside.

"Wait, eat the chocolate first.\" Yuan Tai and the others ran in, and then stopped Xiaobai.

\"yes.\" Mitsuhiko also chimed in.

\"Hmm.\" Ayumi nodded as well.

\"...\" Conan looked at Xiaobai without words.

\"Really.\" Looking at the few people who blocked his way, Xiaobai had no choice but to open the package, although he didn't know what happened, but it shouldn't be a bad thing.

\"How's it taste?\" asked Motota, looking at the little white who had eaten the chocolate.

\"Well, that's good, you guys can try it too.\" Xiaobai replied with a smile, and then took a chocolate out of the package.

\"We don't want it.\" Yuan Tai and the others hurriedly waved their hands.

\"Hmm.\" The little white fox looked at Mrs. Yuan suspiciously, why are they so weird today.

\"Hey, the kids are here.\" The doctor walked out and shouted as he looked at Motota and the others.

\"Hello Doctor.\" Yuan Tai and the others turned to greet the doctor.

"Hehe, it's going to be dinner soon, let's eat together since we're here.\" The doctor said with a smile.

\"Okay, I'm hungry too.\" Yuan Tai cheered loudly.\"Yuan Tai.\" Mitsuhiko and Ayumi both looked at Yuan Tai.\"Hmm, what's wrong?\" Yuan Tai looked confused.\"Doctor, then I'm going to get busy.\" Xiao Bai shook his head, fortunately I bought some more vegetables when I came back, otherwise it would not be enough for the few people to eat now.\"Xiao Bai, what are you going to do?, let's help too.\" Ayumi looked at Xiao Bai and asked.\"In order to answer your gifts, I have to cook now.\" Xiaobai chuckled, and then walked into the kitchen in the hall.\"Xiaobai cooking?\" Yuantai and Mitsuhiko looked at Xiaobai suspiciously.\"...\"Ayumi looked at Xiaobai and didn't speak.\"Yuantai, Mitsuhiko, I made a new game, do you want to play around during this time?\" The doctor said from the side.\"Okay, yes.\" Motota and Mitsuhiko both raised their right hands in agreement.\"...\" Conan looked at all this and smiled.Perhaps, nothing has changed.
