"Brother Youyi, have you paid your salary?"

"No! What's wrong? ”

"It's nothing, I just think you're so weird today! After all, we haven't been invited to dinner since you came back, and you suddenly came out like this. We're a little unaccustomed to it! ”

After carefully cutting off a piece of the steak in front of her and stuffing it into her mouth, while tasting the deliciousness of the steak, Xiaolan asked cautiously.

"Hahaha! What's so strange about that? Yuichi this guy! If it weren't for my Mori Kogoro helping him on the spot, how could I have solved so many cases? It's normal to treat me to a meal, and I don't think there's anything wrong with it! Xiaolan, take it easy! Enjoy the evening! Waiter! Bring me a can of beer! ”

"Daddy! This is a western restaurant! Everyone drinks red wine, and you order beer very differently! Give me some points! I'll have to drive in a while! No alcohol! ”

Looking at Maori Kogoro, who looked up and laughed with his tongue out. Conan rolled a dead fish eye and snorted, then silently lowered his head and cut the steak in front of him.

"Hahaha! Uncle Maori is right, I just came back, and if it weren't for Uncle Maori's help, I wouldn't have been able to integrate into the Metropolitan Police Department so quickly. Xiaolan, don't think about it so much, hurry up and eat! If you don't eat it, it's too late! Remembering the serious advice of the Twilight Police Department a few days ago, Youyi, who also had a headache with these two grim reapers, smiled awkwardly and immediately persuaded Xiaolan vaguely.

Xiaolan, who didn't understand that Youyi was too late to eat this stalk, thanked Yuyi again, and still sped up the speed of his knife and fork as he said.

After seeing that everyone had eaten almost enough, Yuichi, who asked Dr. Asasa for a pizza, coughed dryly to attract everyone's attention, and took out a mysterious box from behind his back with a mysterious expression.

"Actually, I invited everyone to dinner today, mainly because I have a good thing I want to share with you!"

"Humph! I knew it! After so many years, your stinky problem of showing off still hasn't changed! After watching Yuichi roll his eyes, Conan muttered in a low voice as I expected.

Compared with Conan's non-face-giving, Xiaolan, who has always been very polite, is very face-giving, put down the knife and fork in her hand, wiped her mouth with a napkin, and asked with curiosity: "Brother Youyi!" What is it? Does anyone have a birthday today? Or is our sister-in-law, whom we have never met, coming? ”

Nodding with satisfaction at Xiaolan, he reached out and rubbed the head of Conan sitting opposite without leaving a trace, Yuyi explained proudly while unpacking the box, "Xiaolan! You guessed it wrong! It's not anyone's birthday today, and it's not your sister-in-law coming! It's the manga I've been working on for a long time, and someone finally found this pearl from the long yellow sand.,Just now, the editor of the University Pavilion contacted me.,The Kudo Officer Incident Book I submitted is very optimistic about them.。 I've decided to sign a contract, which means that from today onwards I'm no longer just a police officer, I'm also an admirable cartoonist! Wowha! ”

"What? Caricaturist? That's amazing! After picking up the magazine with his comic serials from Youyi, Xiaolan couldn't wait to look through it.

"Huh? Is this based on those cases we solved? Although the painting is average, the plot is still good! Wait, who's this idiot duo who dragged on? How do you feel that if you compare the appearance shots, it is me and my uncle? Hehe! Brother Youyi! Don't you explain? Although his mouth was full of disdain, after Xiaolan took the comics, Conan, who was sitting on the side, secretly moved to Xiaolan's side, squinting and peeking at it. As the plot progressed, Conan's originally interested face, who saw the source of the comic, slowly darkened, until he couldn't bear it at all, and questioned in a somewhat angry tone.

"Is there one? Conan! You're still young! Don't talk nonsense if you don't understand, this is artistic processing, understand? In order to highlight the alertness and wisdom of the manga protagonist, Officer Kudo, it is necessary to match him with two who get in the way so that the story will be interesting! Books will sell even more! Do you understand? After quietly taking the book back from Xiaolan's hand, Yuichi explained to Conan with a smile on his face.

"Really? I'm telling you, that's all I have! Hehe! Regardless of Yuichi's quibbles, after squinting at him, Conan sullenly picked up his knife and fork and poked the steak in front of him fiercely, as if it was the bastard who made him unhappy in his heart.

After the comics turned around in everyone's hands, Yuichi, who was in high spirits, put away the comics and introduced himself and the indissoluble bond between himself and the comics.

"I've loved comics since I was a kid! My mom can attest to this! At that time, she also said that I would become a great cartoonist, but unfortunately, I ended up becoming a police officer! However, even though I was forced to choose a career as a police officer, my dream would not change. After my disdainful efforts, I finally completed this bloody work. Of course, everyone's support is indispensable in the creation of this work......"

Just when Conan was expressionlessly looking at Xiaolan and Maori Kogoro who were mentioned by Yuichi, and Yuichi was smiling and praising each other, making him really unbearable to choose to turn his head to look at others, a familiar figure appeared in front of him.

"Suzuki Sonoko, that eighth woman? What is she here for? The woman next to him looked a little like her! Could it be the sister she's been showing off? Forget it, these people here are enough to make me helpless, if you add her, hehe! That's worse than death! ”

Conan obviously overestimated his luck, with Xiaolan sitting on the side, he was not an opponent at all in such a mysterious thing as luck, and for Xiaolan, it was obviously excellent to meet Yuanzi's best friend here, so ......

"Xiaolan? Is it really you? Hahaha! Unexpected! I've met you here! I'll introduce you, this is my sister, Ayako Suzuki! Currently in graduate school! What do you think? I didn't lie to you, did I? Isn't it a beauty? Wait a minute! Who is this handsome guy? Have you finally made up your mind to get rid of that reasoning freak? This handsome guy looks good! Xiaolan! I'm sticking with you! ”

Looking at the garden that turned around and found their table, listening to her and Xiaolan's whispering, although he hated to death in his heart, but in order not to expose himself, Conan could only pretend not to hear, and turned his gaze to Yuichi's face, who was staring at him smiling, and laughed.

Not to mention Conan's embarrassment here, after Xiaolan was busy explaining Yuichi's identity to Yuanzi for a while, Yuanzi, who knew that he was married, stopped making fun of Xiaolan, and immediately switched to the knowledgeable Miss Suzuki, and they got to know Yuichi gently. A cheerful girl like Yuanzi couldn't be annoying anywhere, except for a certain little ghost who had been damaged by her, everyone else quickly accepted her, and sat down together and chatted happily.

"Brother Yu is not only a police supplement in the Metropolitan Police Department's Search Section, but also a cartoonist? It's amazing! By the way, my sister and they have a party next week, can I invite Brother Yui to attend? Of course, Xiaolan will also go, so you will be much more relieved to have you in Maori Uncle! ”

"Good! Next weekend, I'll be fine! If only Uncle Maori had an opinion! I'll accompany Xiaolan over! Being able to play with you young people makes me feel younger, too! ”

"Where, Brother Youyi, you are not old! With such a handsome guy as you to participate, my sister and I must be super face-saving! Isn't it? Sister! ”

"Hahaha! What a compliment! Garden, your sister is so happy to have such a good sister as you, unlike our family Shinichi! That stinky boy is a bastard! ”

"Shinichi, that stinky boy? Yes, indeed! If you don't know how to respect your predecessors, you can reason and show off everywhere! I don't know where I've been running lately, but I'm really happy without him! It's much more comfortable to read the newspaper! ”

"Daddy! How can you say that about Shinichi? ”

Conan, who watched a good dinner slowly turn into a new call for Kudo, rolled his eyes at countless dead fish, and finally lay on the table like a fateful person, no longer looking at this group of hateful bastards. So this chance dinner ended happily under Conan's countless grievances.
