Act 396: Layers of Fog (5)
"I'm back......"
As soon as he entered the door, Koizumi Hongzi threw the schoolbag in his hand directly to the housekeeper. The butler with the pigtails habitually took it and bowed respectfully to her and the Kaito and Qingzi behind him.
In the quaint hall, there was no one who Kaito and the others were looking for, only the butler and the maid stood in their places waiting for dispatch.
After looking around for a while, Hongzi asked, "What about the Hoshino people?" ”
"Oh, Hoshino-san's words, it's still in the room......" The butler made an inviting gesture and led Kaito and Aoko behind him.
With the soft soles of her feet stepping on the creaking wooden stairs, Aoko walks on thin ice with every step.
What kind of person is that Hoshino-san?
"Smack-" Hongzi unceremoniously pushed open the door and saw Satsuki sitting in front of the computer.
"Huh? Are you back? ”
Hongzi didn't reply to her words, but walked directly to Satsuki's side, put her arm around her shoulder, and became acquainted like an old friend who had known each other many years ago.
She said to Aoko, "That's what I told you, Hoshino Satsuki! ”
Looking at Hoshino Satsuki's delicate and lovely appearance, Nakamori Aoko lost her mind for a moment and forgot the etiquette of greeting. Only the fast fight next to him responded happily and chatted with her.
The girl in front of her was facing the computer, and the soft light hit her face, which was simply beautiful and dazzling. The long jet-black hair swayed gently, and the shape of the double ponytail was lively and exquisite. A butterfly hairpin is tied diagonally into it. The clear, watery inky pupils are even more agile in the long, slender curly eyelashes. There is a faint peach fragrance on the pink mouth. A white pleated skirt with a small coat over it. A belt is tightly tied around her waist, showing off her devilish figure.
Although such a girl is not as stunning as a star, the more she looks at it, the more comfortable she becomes.
The light in Qingzi's eyes dimmed, and she gradually had a sense of crisis.
If you were a boy, you'd probably choose Hoshino Satsuki as well. In that case, you won't have a chance of winning.
Gaoyue saw that Qingzi was silent all the time, thinking that she was afraid of life and didn't dare to speak, so she didn't ask anything.
She went to the door and said to them, "Since you're all back, let's have dinner first." I'm going to cook it myself today, so you'll have to eat your fill. Otherwise, I'll be hungry on my way to Kyoto tomorrow. ”
"Huh? Satsuki, do you cook it yourself? It's amazing......" Hongzi said as he followed.
Immediately, Black Feather Kaito also followed the footsteps of the person in front of him and walked in the direction of the restaurant. In the room, only Nakamori Aoko was left standing alone.
She stared blankly at the floor, clenched her fists tightly, and her eyes showed a hint of unease and mixed emotions.
"Hey, Aoko, what are you doing? Why don't you hurry up and keep up? Suddenly, Kuroba Kaito, who had stepped out of the door, turned back into his room.
He saw that Qingzi had been a little weird since school, and he was really worried.
But Qingzi was swayed by this complex emotion, sulking, and simply misinterpreted his kindness into another meaning.
She walked out of the door angrily, and replied lightly: "You don't have to worry about me, let's hurry up and find Miss Hoshino......"
"That's what I said~" Kaidou didn't know what Aoko meant, and immediately responded: "Ahhh~ I'm really looking forward to it, I don't know what the dinner is?" ”
Watching Kaito stride towards the kitchen and dining room, Aoko bit her lip sadly and said softly, "Kaito, you stupid!" ”
When everyone was already in place, Satsuki lifted the stainless steel lid on the long table with a confident smile, and the finely carved delicacies were steaming. From a distance, dozens of neat dishes, the delicious essence of Chinese flavors are gathered together.
"Wow...... It smells so good. ”
Although Kaito and Hongzi were born noble, they have never seen such a complete and authentic Chinese cuisine. The six major cuisines of Guangdong, Sichuan, Luxiang, Zhejiang, and Fujian are all placed on the table, and each piece is natural.
They picked up the bowl of rice in front of them in one hand and chopsticks in the other, and said loudly, "I'm going to start!" ”
Kuaidou devoured and chewed: "Hoshino, I didn't expect you to be as big as us, but you are so powerful, and your cooking skills are really first-class." ”
Even when eating, Hongzi does not forget to maintain elegance. As she ate, she wiped the stains on the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief, and exclaimed, "Really, your skills are much better than my cook." ”
"Don't praise me like that...... Haha......" Although Gao Yue said this, she forced back a smile.
Sure enough, it's such a cool thing to be praised by others.
This is thanks to the tampering system that the world has given itself.
When a few people were talking, they didn't pay attention to the change in Aoko's expression at all.
The food made by Satsuki is just gently held in the mouth, and the deliciousness spreads from the tip of the tongue to the brain. But the more this happened, the more Qingzi felt that she was a head shorter than Gaoyue.
"By the way, Hoshino, I have one thing to ask you!" Suddenly, Kuroba Kaito put down his chopsticks, and his expression became serious.
The usually funny and uninhibited Kaito suddenly became serious, which made everyone present stunned, and they also put down their chopsticks and raised their heads.
"What's the matter?"
"Oh, that's the ......" Kaito subconsciously glanced at Nakamori Aoko as he spoke, and said, "I saw Kidd the strange thief confronting a woman in a ninja uniform the other day. This woman, like Kidd, was looking for a gem called Pandora, and she seemed to be able to manipulate things with magic. ”
Hearing him say this, Hongzi also remembered this incident. "That's right, Xiaoyue, since you have crossed over in the future, you should know the identity of that woman."
Gao Yue doesn't know much about the plot of "Magic Fight", not to mention that if you want to find plot information on the Internet, you have to wait until no one is around, and you can only connect to the network of the three-dimensional world at eight o'clock in the evening.
She shook her head helplessly.
"Don't you even know?" Hongzi held his chin and thought carefully: "If I knew the appearance and name of that woman, I would also be able to know her identity through divination. But now we have to wait until tomorrow's sacrifice ceremony begins to confirm whether this woman is also the owner of magic. ”
"Do you suspect she's the Dark Witch?" Gao Yue's face changed.
"I can't be sure ...... yet," Kaito muttered, tensing his nerves, "Because that woman's goal is only gems, and she doesn't seem to want to hurt anyone." ”
"That's ......" Satsuki thought, casually holding chopsticks and putting rice in her mouth.
Being told by them really piqued her interest.
Compared to the known plots of the Conan world, the unknown events in the second world made Satsuki very excited.
Possessor of mana......
Satsuki curled her lips as she imagined the magical image of meeting the witches tomorrow and witnessing the magic of the possessors of magic fighting each other in person.
Not to mention, it's still a little interesting.
- End of "Fire and ice".
