Chapter 47: How Strange

The murderer was captured.

Qingming was just a bystander, not meddling.

This doesn't seem to match the general routine, shouldn't you pretend to be 13 in the face at this time?

Even if you pretend to be a messenger of justice to expose the truth and find out the murderer.

However, that is not the character of Qingming.

Moreover, does the truth have to be revealed? Do you have to catch the murderer?

Sometimes it has to be, sometimes it doesn't.

That's what Qingming thinks.

But Conan's thoughts are obviously different from his.

The tears of the beautiful sister Tomomi Sakaguchi did not make him soften his heart at all, and he did not hesitate to testify.

Maybe it's because he thinks that as long as someone dies, he can't let the murderer go unpunished.

Either way, it's over.

Qingming can also leave.

"It's really hard-hearted!"

Walking on the way back to the coffee shop, Qingming sighed so emotionally.

Detective, what kind of creature is it?

"Ernie sauce, Oni-chan, what are you talking about?"

Subconsciously sighed, Qingming is said in Huaxia.

This made Ayumi incomprehensible.

And hearing her voice, Qingming seemed to react.

"Huh? Why are you still here? ”

"Ernie Sauce, Ernie Sauce has been holding me!"

“……”

It seems that too, I forgot to put the little girl down.

When I looked back, I saw that there were no police officers behind me, and no one I knew.

So I was relieved.

Look at the little girl in her arms again.

Sure enough, at this time, should it be pulled into a small alley where no one is there to carry out the lifan expansion?

No, no, no, as a senior sister control, how can you start with a Lori?

should be unswervingly waiting for his sister.。

Although he didn't.

"Since you're here, let's go eat cake."

"Okay."

Ayumi nodded.

Maybe it was a cake to eat, which made her feel very happy.

But the confusion is not yet solved.

"Speaking of which, Ernie Sauce, Ernie Sauce, what were you talking about?"

"Oh, I'm talking about a certain elementary school student, what a hard-hearted person."

"Are you talking about Conan? What does it mean to have a heart of stone? ”

The fact that the elementary school student in Qingming's mouth refers to Conan is known to those who are more familiar.

Ayumi naturally knows it.

But when it comes to the idiom "hard-hearted", she doesn't know and doesn't understand what it means.

But Qingming didn't explain.

"It's nothing, it doesn't matter if you don't know, anyway, you just need to keep your innocent and kind character now."

At least, until you grow up, keep it up.

Because it's easy to go from naivety to reality, and it's almost impossible to go from reality to naivety.

Qingming doesn't like anything else, he likes the innocence of the little girl.

Because that's what he doesn't have.

……

Be careful, in the dark, there is a pair of eyes staring at you.

……

Coffee shop.

"Wow, it's a cat."

Ayumi, who was eating cake, suddenly let out an exclamation, and it seemed that there was still some information.

Got under the table and soon came out again.

It's just that there is an extra cat in his arms.

A black cat.

"Meow ......"

Seemingly enjoying the feeling of being held by the little girl, the black cat barked softly and rubbed its head against the little girl's palm.

It seems to be just a very ordinary cat.

Hearing the movement here, Qingming on the counter also looked over.

Sight, right.

The sight of clarity and the sight of a black cat.

It seems ordinary, and it seems unusual.

Long.

"Where did the cat come from?"

"Oh, I came with the guest before, but I didn't expect to leave with the guest, it doesn't seem to be his cat."

Azusa Enomoto, who was cleaning up the table, replied.

It's just a cat, and she doesn't think much of it.

It's not a crow.

Qingming, who heard the explanation, nodded and glanced at the black cat, but he didn't seem to care too much.

But start talking.

"Throw it out later."

"Huh? Why? ”

Azusa Enomoto didn't speak, and Ayumi was the first to object.

"Isn't it good to keep it?"

She seemed to like small animals more, and she didn't think much about it, so she said she wanted to raise them.

But it's not her raising, it's Qingming's raising.

The meaning is like this, and Qingming also understands.

But Qingming won't agree.

"Small animals of unknown origin can't be raised, otherwise they will become horse monkey soju."

"Horse monkey shochu?"

"Oh, magical girl."

Qingming explained.

The horse monkey soju said that he was used to it, and he subconsciously said it.

Hearing the corrected pronunciation, Ayumi understood.

His eyes widened, as if he was a little surprised.

"Really?"

"Of course it's fake."

Azusa Enomoto rolled her eyes.

She said she couldn't agree with Qingming's deception of the little girl.

"How can there be less magic in the world...... Forehead ......"

At the end of the day, suddenly I couldn't talk anymore.

If you want to say why......

That's because there is a powerful person in front of him, although he is not a magician, but a person who claims to be a Taoist priest.

It seems that I can't talk too much in the future.

Enomoto Azusa rubbed her head, and seemed to have a headache.

Qingming, who was supporting his head with one hand, looked at this side with a smile.

"So, little girl, you can't become an adult with no dreams like your sister Azi in the future."

"Oh."

Although she didn't understand very much, the little girl nodded.

Azusa Enomoto pursed her lips and snorted softly.

Then I got on with my work.

Ayumi over there, corrected the topic again.

"Is this really not something you can raise?"

"Of course not."

"Why? Ernie sauce: Does Ernie sauce not like cats? ”

"If you want to talk about cats, I prefer blue cats or rainbow cats, and I don't like the others very much."

"Male cat? Rainbow cat? ”

The little girl's pronunciation was a little inaccurate, and there was some confusion on her face.

A small hand, still stroking the black cat.

These two words Qingming used Huaxia language, so she naturally couldn't understand and couldn't say them.

But Qingming still didn't explain.

"It's nothing, all in all, men don't have cats and women don't have dogs, and I'm too lazy to raise them, besides, this cat has an owner."

"Master?"

"You see it's so clean, someone must have bathed it, and it wasn't long ago that it threw it out and it went home."

"Okay then."

Hearing this, the little girl finally didn't think much about it.

Just still sitting in his seat, teasing the black cat.

Qingming looked at it and didn't continue to pay attention to it.

Just beckoned to Azusa Enomoto and motioned for her to come over.

Azusa Enomoto glanced at him, but walked over to the counter anyway.

"Do you have any orders, innkeeper?"

She had a smile on her face.

But in his hand, he was holding the rag that was still wiping the table just now.

Still dangling in front of Qingming's eyes, obviously threatening.

Of course, Qingming is not afraid of threats, and he is also smiling.

"Actually, I want to say that I like your cat more than those cats, how about it? Want to change into a catmaid suit again? ”

“……”

I know that this guy Qingming won't say anything good.

Showing a vicious expression towards Qingming, he turned around and left directly.

In the end, I still didn't do it.

Qingming smiled, didn't think much about it, and began to read the book again.

It seems that he has been reading very little lately.

……

At night.

Ayumi has long since left, and the black cat has been thrown out.

After cleaning up after dinner, Enomoto Azusa also officially got off work.

In the coffee shop, Qingming was the only one left.

The coffee shop with no one is so quiet.

I didn't read a book, I just quietly looked at the empty space in the store.

At this time, it always seems to be very lonely.

There was a "ding" sound, and it suddenly sounded.

It also aroused the idea of Qingming.

Turning his head, he saw that it was a young girl walking in.

With short hair and a slight frown, maybe worrying about something.

"Get drunk and relieve a thousand sorrows, girl, this is a coffee shop, not a bar."

Without thinking about it, Qingming directly started to drive people away.

I guess it's a young man who is out of love, unemployed, or something like that, and who is worried, so I want to buy a drunk.

This time, however, he guessed wrong.

"Three cups of signature coffee."

Signature coffee?

Meng Po soup?

Qingming, who originally didn't have much spirit, suddenly became interested.

Could it be that another person who guessed that this is the essence of the coffee shop in the urban legend?

"It's weird."

Qingming thought so.

"How do you feel that all the guesses are women? Delusion? ”
