"That's life........."

Māori munched on a sandwich and sat at the café's front desk with a steaming cup of tea at hand.

Because Katayama couldn't rest assured about the business here, he made a large number of finished black tea overnight and put it in the store.

Then he bought Maori to come to the store on the condition that he could drink a drink.

Maori agreed without even thinking about it, the leisurely day he dreamed of, without Conan bothering him, without Xiaolan taking care of him, or even the eventful Zorro to tease him.

It's all realized, and he knows that no one usually comes to Katayama's store, which means that he only needs to sit in the store and watch TV and prostitute drinks.

It was perfect!

"Strange...... The lights seem to be dimmer than usual......"

Maori suddenly felt that something was wrong, usually the light in the store seemed to be quite bright, but now he felt a little dark.........

He looked up suddenly, and saw a full crowd of customers standing in front of the counter, looking at him anxiously.

Seeing him look up, the customers were no longer reserved, and all poured into the store.

"Boss! Lemon black tea! ”

Katayama...... You ...... guy."

Seeing so many guests coming in, Mori suddenly understood why Conan and Ran were covering their mouths and snickering when he promised Katayama.........

……………

"Ahh

Katayama, who was waiting for a bus on the side of the road, sneezed.

After counting the time, it is almost time for the café to open...... It is estimated that Mori is boasting about his advertising effect.

"Zorro, you're excited, too!"

"Meow~"

Conan hugged Zorro, and even had a tendency to circle in place, for Conan, Sherlock Holmes is a god!

Even when he was still a new one, his date with Xiaolan was all about Sherlock Holmes.

"Sherlock Holmes once said........."

"Moriarty once said........."

Katayama felt that if these words were replaced with "Zi once said......... this girl would simply be Lu Xiucai.

But what he is facing is not Guo Furong, but Mao Lilan, but if Xiaolan's temper is a little more violent, this straight dog may not survive to be knocked by Gin.

After all, Xiaolan's punch is probably much more powerful than overwhelming......

But well...... According to the theory of straight male relativity, there is no absolute straight man in dogs, only straight straight men.

Compared with Hattori Heiji, who pretends to be stupid when he has nothing to do, Conan is like a veteran in the love field.

"How do I think you're thinking about something rude......"

Conan peeked at Katayama and muttered in a low voice, just now he clearly felt that Katayama was complaining about him.

"Why do I always have a feeling that I agree with Mr. Katayama...... Mr. Katayama didn't say anything......"

Xiaolan also muttered in a low voice, just now she seemed to feel that Mr. Katayama was complaining about Shinichi, and she felt that she was complaining very right.

…………

"Ahh

The swarthy young man sitting in a car sneezed and rubbed his nose unpleasantly.

If you take a closer look, in addition to his hairstyle and beauty tips, his appearance is seven or eight points similar to Kudo Shinichi, and he feels like he can pretend to be Kudo by applying a few layers of powder.

Heiji Hattori, a high school detective in Osaka, has the same reasoning ability as Kudo Shinichi, but he will always lose to Kudo because of his impatient personality.

Together with Kudo Shinichi, it is called "Kudo of Kanto, Hattori of Kansai".

At this time, he was sitting in the car on the way to the Sherlock Holmes Club.

Of course, he himself is not very interested in Sherlock Holmes, and if he has to say, Sherlock Holmes is more of an adventure and suspense than a mystery novel.

This type of book was not to his liking, and he preferred writers like Ellery Quinn, with orthodox ontological reasoning like "The Mystery of the Roman Hat" and "The Mystery of the Greek Coffin".

After all, it is also known as the highest level of classical reasoning, and in his mind, it is really not comparable to Conan Doyle.

Of course, in terms of popularity, Conan Doyle is better known.

However, because of the guy he cares about very much, Kudo Shinichi seems to like Sherlock Holmes very much, so in order to compete with Kudo, he signed up for this tour group.

Wait for Kudo, this time he will definitely not lose! Be sure to let everyone know that he, Heiji Hattori, is a better detective!

He also wants to prove that Ellery Quinn is the ceiling of classical reasoning! Conan Doyle, give me a little later!

…………

"Abominable ........."

Conan raised the classic dead fish eye again, and he was sitting on Katayama's lap with an unhappy expression.

This was the car specially sent by the tour group to pick them up, and because of the limited seats, he and Zorro could only lie on Katayama and Xiaolan's laps.

Just when he thought he could sit on Xiaolan's lap, Zorro actually jumped up first, so that Conan could only sit on Katayama's lap unwillingly.

"What's the matter with your disgusted expression........."

Katayama is also unhappy, this car is full of reasoning enthusiasts, and even Xiaolan can discuss a few words with them because of the ears and eyes of a certain straight man Kudo.

He doesn't understand it at all! I can only sit in my seat like the only outsider and shut myself up.

"My favorite chapter is probably ...... Scarlet Word Study. ”

Nanako Shimizu, who has short hair, talks with them about her favorite Sherlock Holmes story with interest.

In fact, enthusiasts like them, most of them are probably very in love with the story, but if you have to choose, it is still the most classic blood word research.

"Indeed, as the beginning of the Sherlock Holmes series, this is also the beginning of all stories......"

Toshiaki Fujisawa, who was wearing a dark suit and had a mustache, nodded approvingly, he also liked the case.

Speaking of which, this case, because it is the first case, is also the most detailed section that describes Holmes's observational ability.

"My favorite is ...... Four Signatures!"

Conan was also excitedly involved, and the story of the Four Signatures is also recognized as a world-renowned novel.

Conan Doyle consistently satirizes the incompetence and arrogance of the police at that time, and at the same time alludes to a certain extent the colonial rule of India.

Whether it is in terms of story structure, the meaning behind it, or the degree of excitement, this is a masterpiece of the entire Sherlock Holmes series.

It can only be said that as a Sherlock Holmes maniac, Conan's kid is indeed very tasteful.

"My favorite, I think ...... Uncanny Valley Bar ......"

Xiaolan suddenly mentioned something on the side, attracting the attention of everyone else.

The most surprised was Conan, who thought that Xiaolan should be completely uninterested in this.

As a girl who is not interested in reasoning, she really has little interest in the uncanny valley case itself.

If you want to say that you like it, it should be because this is the most detailed case that Shinichi has told her when she was in the amusement park.........

Will you be like Sherlock Holmes who fell down a waterfall...... What about a miraculous return?

Xiaolan often thinks like this......

Conan was stunned, looking at Xiaolan's slightly sad expression, and he had mixed feelings for a while.

"Lan ........."

Katayama looked at the change in these two eyes, and became even more unhappy.........

Outsider, he's a .........
