The unscrupulous detective in Conan

Chapter 1438 Sonoko: Have I become a play?

Chapter 1438 Sonoko: Have I become a play?
Ooka Momiji looked like a little bird nestled against its nest.

Seeing this, Fujino was speechless for a moment, feeling utterly helpless.

We haven't even said anything yet, or even done anything...

You, Little Red Leaf, just grabbed the imperial robe and put it on me, and you even brought along a sister with you.

This has truly caused me great suffering!
What else is there to say?
Don't even mention being my older sister, you can be my biological older sister...

Fujino had some ideas in mind, but Kokoro's actions had clearly exceeded his expectations.

She even took the opportunity to stomp on her jade feet, which were covered in thick, black, soft cotton, and trampled them mercilessly.

All I can say is, you truly are amazing, Little Red Leaf.

He single-handedly fulfilled the prerequisites and initiated the IF scenario...

Fujino raised her hand and ruffled Ooka Momiji's wet hair: "Okay, okay, you'll always be my older sister."

"She's not just my sister, she's also my wife."

"Boom..."

Upon hearing this, Ooka Momiji blushed instantly, her head drooped, and her previous fearless demeanor vanished completely, instantly transforming her into an ostrich-like figure, much like a shy young girl.

Ooka Momiji felt that she should be able to let go.

After all, everything that was supposed to be done has been done, and although the things that weren't supposed to be done haven't been done yet, they'll have to be done sooner or later...

What else is there to hold back?
But he actually called me "wife"!

He calls me his wife!
Fujino looked at Ooka Momiji in his arms and thought she was even cuter.

In his view, Hongye was the type of wife who would be a good helpmate.

She is truly devoted to him, and she is also very perceptive, considerate, and gentle.

It may sound a bit cliché, but he truly is my ideal type.

Turning the pages of history, one sees a magnificent and sweeping panorama, yet the importance of a good match remains unchanged from ancient times to the present.

Empress Ma, Yin Lihua, née Changsun.

This is what a virtuous wife and loving mother is like. There is an old saying that goes: "With a wife like this, what more could a husband ask for?"
…………

A dozen minutes later, the hot spring water gurgled. Ooka Momiji soaked in the warm water, panting heavily for a few moments. She rubbed her aching chest, looking completely satisfied.

"I accidentally went a little too far. I'll have to remind the shopkeeper to change the hot spring water later..." she thought to herself.

Meanwhile, Fujino calmed himself down, shook his head to clear his mind.

"This hot spring water is really gentle, soft, yet a bit turbulent."

"However, we need to be a little more moderate. If we really get addicted to hot springs... we'll probably have to go to hot springs together all the time in the future."

Fujino thought to himself for a moment and realized that if he continued like this, he would probably break down sooner or later.

My body can handle it, but my mental state is another story; feeling listless is unpleasant.

After a while, both of them calmed down a bit, and Fujino remembered that he seemed to have something important to say.

"By the way, speaking of which, you said you'd give me a little something in return..."

"It's just a little incentive."

In response to Fujino's question, Ooka Momiji replied calmly, "If you keep throwing out the bait and the fish don't eat it, they will be disappointed."

Fujino understood what she meant and explained, "I meant, what kind of incentives to offer..."

"You can decide this kind of thing."

"I just need to ask my wife's opinion..."

"Then, I'll find an opportunity."

Upon hearing this, Ooka Momiji blushed and unconsciously rubbed her hands together.

She was thinking of giving him a little something in return.

But I was still a little conflicted—I wanted to give my best friend something, but I was also afraid that my best friend would actually get better.

After soaking in the hot spring for a while, the two took a shower, changed their clothes, and sneaked back to their respective rooms.

The next morning, when everyone arrived at the hotel restaurant for breakfast, they immediately noticed Ooka Momiji's dark circles. Ran asked with concern, "Ms. Momiji, did you not sleep well last night?"

"Yeah, I'm having a little trouble sleeping," Ooka Momiji replied with a smile. "I'm not quite used to the bed here, sorry about that."

"Oh……"

Xiaolan was stunned and didn't realize what was going on.

Sonoko, standing to the side, also touched her chin, feeling that something was off, but she couldn't quite put her finger on it.

Ai Haibara frowned, thinking to herself, "Strange, I slept very soundly last night and fell asleep so early."

"Logically speaking, I should be able to fall asleep around two or three in the morning."

Ai Haibara sensed that something was slightly off.

But looking at Fujino, who seemed to be in relatively good spirits.

So I accepted this explanation and didn't think too much about it.

She thought that even if this woman was shameless, she couldn't possibly go on a secret date with Fujino at night, could she?

She couldn't even imagine what she could do if she secretly went out on a date at night.

Hmm, Fujino shouldn't be that kind of person.

Ai Haibara nodded to herself, trying to comfort herself.

After breakfast, the mission concluded, and the group began their journey back. Since they weren't in a rush to get back, they decided to stroll around and explore along the way before taking the bus back to Tokyo.

Kyoto.

We strolled around and arrived in Kyoto, which can be considered the home ground of Ooka's autumn leaves.

After spending the night there, the group decided to explore the area the next morning.

"The streets here are so beautiful..."

"All around are fiery red maple leaves!"

"And there seemed to be very few people around."

"Why don't we all take a picture together!"

When they came to a street covered with fallen red maple leaves, the group got excited and decided to take a couple of group photos to commemorate the occasion.

Fujino didn't understand why the maple leaves were still red at this time of year.

But then I think about the bizarre timing of the Detective Conan world...

Well, that makes perfect sense.

The group stood in the center of the frame, flanked by maple trees with red maple leaves hanging from their tips. A few red leaves drifted down onto the Edo-style courtyard walls on either side.

The photo, once taken, actually had a rather artistic feel to it.

Hongye looked at the camera, then suddenly thought of something, and pulled Fujino along to take another picture together.

Then she chuckled and said, "We finally get to go out, let's take some photos to remember the trip!"

As she spoke, she glanced at the group around her and asked, "Would you all like to take a separate photo as a souvenir?"

"Ran, Sonoko, won't you two take a picture together?"

"Eh?"

"That makes sense. Xiaolan, let's take a picture together."

"Wait a minute."

Sonoko was quite enthusiastic about this kind of thing, so she pulled Ran up and hugged her for a picture.

After taking the photos, Hongye wasn't satisfied and suggested to Yuanzi with a smile, "By the way, Yuanzi, let's take a picture together!"

"Should the two of us come too?"

"Of course! After all, we're good friends!"

As she spoke, she stepped forward and chuckled as she grabbed Sonoko's arm.

Seeing this, Xiaolan didn't think much of it and silently stepped back, giving the spotlight to Yuanzi and Hongye.

Seeing that my two good friends can get along harmoniously.

Xiaolan was actually quite happy.

Although, well, she learned something she shouldn't have known.

However, harmony is good.

At least she no longer has to worry about her two good friends.

With Ooka Momiji's arm around her, Suzuki Sonoko naturally experienced what Fujino had gone through. Her thoughts were, of course, similar to Fujino's.

What did she eat to grow up like this?
However, before she could finish wondering, Koyo pulled her towards Fujino and grabbed Fujino with her other hand.

Sonoko was even more confused: "...?"

Fujino was still in shock.

It wasn't until I saw the slight smile on Hongye's lips that I understood what she was trying to do.

Seeing that Fujino was cooperating, Koyo pulled the two of them and took two steps toward the red maple tree, then grabbed one of them with each hand and struck a pose.

Then he called out to Iori Muga, who was holding the camera, "Iori, how's this angle?"

"Is there anything that needs to be adjusted?"

"Should we switch positions?"

Upon hearing this, Iori Muga narrowed his eyes slightly and then said, "Hmm, the position needs to be changed a bit, otherwise the scene won't look very neat."

"Is that right?"

Upon hearing this, Koyo nodded, then glanced at them and said, "Yes, that's true. Fujino-kun is quite tall, while Sonoko is about my height..."

As she said this, she released the two people she was holding onto, took two steps forward, then reached out and pulled Fujino and Sonoko's arms up, crossing them together: "That should be enough!"

With that, she chuckled and went back to the other side, taking Fujino's arm: "Alright, Iori!"

"That's it!"

"eggplant!"

"Kata!"

Even after the photos were taken, Sonoko remained dazed, looking completely blank.

When she came to her senses, she realized that her arm had bumped into Fujino's chest.

? ? ! !
After Sonoko came to her senses, her face immediately turned red.

I actually took a photo with Fujino-senpai's arm around his!
So shameful...

The senior didn't seem to refuse.

They're still hugging!
Before Sonoko could even process what was happening, Momiji called out to Iori Muga, "Iori, how's it going?"

"Well, the filming wasn't very good."

As she spoke, Iori Muga slowly walked over with her camera, pointed at the photo, and said, "Sonoko-san's expression is a little off."

"Indeed, he seems a bit dull..."

"No, take one more!"

Sonoko saw her own blank and silly expression in the photo and immediately became unhappy: "Kurenai, let's do it again!"

"Let me take off my headband first!"

"it is good."

With a response, Koyo grabbed Fujino's arm, and then Sonoko, who was standing nearby, quickly reached out and pulled the other arm into her arms.

The two of them used their strength to hold Fujino down.

Seeing this, Iori Muga didn't say anything, but took two steps back and snapped another picture.

This time, the scene was much more harmonious.

Two girls, with shy smiles on their faces, are holding onto the arm of another man who looks like a young man but is actually a teenager, and the scene is frozen in time.

The atmosphere was inexplicably warm.

Sonoko glanced at the photo of herself without her headband, revealing her true appearance, and was fairly satisfied with it.

"As expected, my looks are just as good as Momiji's..."

"However, it is indeed much smaller."

"So, the senior must be able to tell the difference between an apple and a grapefruit."

As Sonoko looked at the photos, she thought to herself, seeing the two completely different, almost worlds apart, levels of incompatibility, and a sense of inexplicable frustration welled up inside her.

After thinking about it, she inexplicably felt that she was being a bit unreasonable.

"Hongye just helped me, how can I think like that?"

"Even without a pomelo like her..."

"My apple is still thirst-quenching!"

In the end, our Miss Sonoko decided not to be jealous of her best friend.

After all, this sister is really great; she'll definitely step up when needed...

In the end, she didn't need to say a word; she simply cast a grateful glance at Hongye beside her.

Seeing this, Hongye didn't say anything, but a smile appeared on her lips.

Sonoko understood the meaning behind it.

The two exchanged a knowing smile.

"Sisterhood in our hearts!"

Haibara Ai:"……"

What are you two doing?!

Let him go!

hateful!

Ai Haibara felt a chill run down her spine when she saw the two young ladies clinging to her Fujino's arms and insisting on taking a photo together.

"Something's not right. Something's definitely not right!"

"Judging from the way these two guys are acting, they must have planned this beforehand!"

"They actually forcibly restrained Fujino and then forced him to take pictures or something..."

Ai Haibara must have been furious at this blatant act of blatant disrespect.

So she slowly walked forward and tugged at Fujino's sleeve: "Fujino, let's take a picture together."

"Great! It just so happens that we haven't taken a photo together yet."

Fujino glanced at Ai Haibara's melancholy expression and knew perfectly well that the girl was jealous.

Without saying much, he simply responded.

Then, holding her little hand, he greeted Iori Muga.

Then, Ai Haibara stared at the photo of herself, short in stature, with her hand raised and being led by Fujino, lost in thought: "So, why do I feel a strange father-daughter vibe?"

hateful!

Ai Haibara felt like crying but had no tears in her heart, and her face turned slightly ugly.

The cat is suffering inside, but it can't express it.

Fujino's expression was also slightly complicated.

"You know what, they really do look like father and daughter."

Fujino Shinshin thought that if they added a red leaf next to it, people would believe it was a family photo.

After all, he remembered that the original form of the gray cat, Shiho Miyano, had one golden and one black parent, and the gray cat's brown color only appeared after they merged.

In a way, it can be considered a restoration.

Ooka Momiji naturally understood this as well.

She had even taken on the role of Gray's mother.

Looking at the photo of Ai Haibara and Fujino, a smile appeared on her face: "Ai looks so cute..."

"Should the three of us take a picture too?"

"do not want!"

Ai Haibara immediately refused in a cold voice.

I really don't want to take a photo with this seemingly gentle and kind young lady, but who is actually a completely wicked woman at heart.

Taking a photo with Fujino, they were mistaken for father and daughter, or even siblings. That's one thing.

The cat is happy!

But in this situation, if we add this despicable woman to the mix...

Then wouldn't I really become a daughter?
