A new day.

Afternoon.

Xiaolan was in the coffee shop, chatting with Qingming.

"Eh, so Miss Champoli's father is fine?"

"It's okay to live a few more years."

"Oh, that's really amazing, Qingming, I didn't expect you to be such a powerful doctor."

Xiaolan's eyes widened, full of surprise.

After all, a teenager who is about the same age as her can cure a serious illness that many doctors can't cure, which is really powerful.

Conan on one side was also surprised.

He came with Xiaolan, probably trying to find out some information related to Qingming.

After all, in the matter of the new name Xiang Baoli, Qingming behaved very well.

found the new name Ren Taro earlier than them, and saved the new name Ren Taro's life, and now he has cured other people's diseases.

No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like something that an ordinary teenager can do.

However, Qingming itself does not look like an ordinary person.

How could an ordinary person afford to open a coffee shop at such a young age?

How can ordinary people not go to school for so long, and there is no punishment from the school side?

Not to mention the punishment, not even a verbal warning.

Can this still be ordinary?

Anyway, Qingming is the kind of existence that looks ordinary, but is actually not ordinary at all.

This made Conan very concerned.

Now, if there is even the slightest mistake, he can suspect an organization.

So I also doubt that Qingming will have something to do with that organization.

However, such suspicions were quickly abandoned.

I'm also a little nervous, and when I see someone wearing black, I think of that organization, and when I hear the word "organization" in some people's mouths, I think of that organization.

However, if you think about it, how can there be people everywhere in the organization?

So there is no doubt about Qingming, just pure curiosity.

After all, Qingming is very powerful.

Although he basically didn't show it, he felt that Qingming was the kind that was deeply hidden, which could be seen from his occasional performance.

So he had another bold idea: maybe he could ask Qingming to help him.

But for now, it's just a matter of thinking.

I think so, but it's not easy to do, or even hard to say.

Qingming didn't know what Conan was thinking.

After hearing Xiaolan's admiration, she just smiled.

"I'm not a doctor."

"Huh?"

Xiaolan was a little puzzled.

But after a moment's thought, he spoke again.

"I know, it's called 'Doctor', right? Recently, I learned a little bit of Chinese language. ”

"No, I'm not a doctor, I'm just a Taoist, of course, I can also be said to be an alchemist, there's nothing wrong with that."

"Huh? Alchemist? ”

Xiaolan doesn't know much about this.

Although it is said that I have learned a little bit of Chinese language, it does not mean that I know a lot about Chinese culture.

However, she is more interested in Chinese culture.

For example, she thinks it's cute to say her name in Chinese.

Well, that doesn't seem to be much of an interest in Chinese culture.

But it doesn't matter.

"Qingming, you always have something we don't understand."

“……”

In this regard, Qingming can only express helplessness.

This is not only a generation gap in culture, but also a generation gap in the times.

He traveled through the previous world, but he has entered the new century, and this world is only in the 90s.

In such a situation, how can there be no generation gap?

Although the tech tree in this world is a bit crooked, and the timeline is a bit weird, the development here is almost the same every day.

But it doesn't matter either.

"Alchemist, there is an ancient one, there was a very famous one in the Qin Dynasty of China, called Xu Fu, who was a monk himself, who knew how to make alchemy, and later went to sea to find the legendary elixir, and then there were people in this land."

Qingming said so.

He also pointed to the ground under his feet.

“…… Huh? ”

Xiaolan said she didn't understand.

Conan was also stunned for a moment, thinking about it carefully......

And then it can only be hehehe.

So this is saying that they are the descendants of that Xu Fu?

"Let's not talk about this ...... yet"

I can't understand what I said.

So Xiaolan simply changed the topic.

"We're going to Osaka this weekend, do you want to go with Qingqing?"

"Osaka?"

"Well, it was Hattori Heiji who invited us to go, do you remember? You've seen it before, it's the ......."

"Big brother from Africa, I remember."

Qingming nodded.

You may not understand this, but if you say that it is Conan's friend, you can understand it.

In this regard, Conan once again hehehe.

Xiaolan also seemed a little embarrassed.

"Qingming, Hattori Heiji is not so dark."

It's better to say that it looks black, but it's actually white.

This is the opposite of Qingming.

Qingming seems to be a sunny boy, and he is always smiling a lot of the time.

But if you cut it open, it must be black.

"If you don't invite me, I'm not going."

Qingming shook his head.

He didn't know Hattori well and didn't want to have too much contact with him.

It's not the same kind of person, and you can't be friends.

And what's there to do in Osaka?

After thinking about it for a while, I couldn't think of anything, so naturally I didn't have much interest in going there.

If you have that time, you might as well go to the beach to play, at least you can see a big girl in a bikini.

Xiaolan didn't say much.

It's just that I have a feeling that although I am friends with Qingming, the distance between them seems to be too far.

Obviously said they were friends, why?

I don't understand.

……

Time passes slowly.

Weekend.

In the morning, about ten o'clock.

In the morning, I saw Xiaolan's family leaving in a car.

I guess it's going to Osaka.

Qingming didn't care, just looked at the black cat outside.

This black cat is also really dedicated, and has been staying outside, almost never leaving.

Of course, if you want to talk about dedication, the crow will not lose to it.

It doesn't matter.

There are no guests today.

There are so many regular customers, but not many people have come lately.

This made Enomoto Azusa wonder if it was a ghost from Qingqing.

After all, Qingming knows Taoism, maybe he used Taoism, so that the guests don't come to the door.

Quite possibly.

After all, no matter how bad the business is, it won't be without a single customer in the daytime, right? Obviously, it was so normal some time ago, and there was no scandal, how could there be no guests willing to come.

So I went and asked Qingming.

In this regard, Qingming naturally denied it.

"How could I possibly do such a thing?"

He pouted directly.

There is no need to do this kind of thing, and opening a coffee shop and making Meng Po soup is just to trick people......

It's for business.

So how could it be possible to ruin your own business.

However, Azusa Enomoto thought of another possibility.

"That'...... It can't be that witch who did it, right? Haven't you been working against each other lately? ”

"Maybe."

Qingming looked at the novel in his hand and didn't seem to care.

Perhaps, at this time, he is more concerned about what the uncle protagonist in the novel will do next.

However, Azusa Enomoto could not sit idly by.

"Shopkeeper, you'll have to find a way to do this, or we'll be closing."

"Mmmm, figure it out."

Qingming nodded.

But whether it's the tone or the expression, it's all indifferent.

It's completely perfunctory.

This made Azusa Enomoto say that she was not very happy.

"Shopkeeper, can you stop watching it and do something serious?"

"Okay."

"Shopkeeper, don't be perfunctory to me."

“……”

Qingming stopped reading the book.

Raise your head and look at Azusa Enomoto.

Enomoto Azusa stared at him without flinching.

Long.

Putting down the novel, he stretched out his hand and pinched her chin in the puzzled eyes of Azusa Enomoto.

"Shopkeeper ......"

"Then let's get down to business."

Qingming didn't give her a chance to object, and leaned over.

The two of them, kissing each other again.

Qingming always wants to bully her.

Enomoto Azusa knows a lot about this, but she doesn't mind that.

How to say that......

Maybe it's L, O, V, E's love?

So......

"Ding", the bell sounded.

A small figure appeared at the door of the store.

As soon as I entered the door, I saw the owner and clerk kissing together, and I was a little dumbfounded.

Stop kissing.

looked over and found that it was a little girl I knew, Ayumi Yoshida.

Last time, I was seen by Xiaolan, and this time I was seen by a little girl.
