Ke Xue Bartender

Chapter 19: The Fat Boy Who Chases Stars
Lin Ye secretly observed the woman sitting by the window.

This woman doesn't look like a bad person, so why is she involved with that mysterious organization? Was she forced to do so?

He couldn't help but ponder it.

Well, it was very possible. Judging from the voice of the man in black that I heard during the day, he was more like monitoring the two sisters than a simple bodyguard.

It is very likely that the two were under some kind of coercion.

Unfortunately, he was just a bartender and couldn't help her. The only thing he could do was to serve her a glass of wine during the brief moment they met.

At this time, the woman rubbed her eyes and looked out the window.

[I hope this mission can be successfully completed, so that my sister and I can leave the organization. After leaving the organization, the prince will contact me, right? ]

Hmm? Mission?

She wants to get out of that organization!

But can the criminal group withdraw just by saying so? Lin Ye asked himself.

He met a guest in his previous life who accidentally joined a fraud organization while looking for a job. When he found out and wanted to leave, he was threatened by that organization, who said their family would disappear.

The man had no choice but to stay in there until the organization was destroyed and he was arrested as one of the people involved in the case. Although he had his own reasons, the facts of the crime were proven and he still stayed in prison for two years before he was released.

Judging from Gin's psychological activities, the organization he belongs to is definitely much worse than a fraud gang. Can such an organization really just walk away?

I don't know what kind of mission she agreed to...

"Hey, does it look good?"

Lin Ye was thinking when a slightly sarcastic voice suddenly sounded in his ears.

Aragaki Kaho came to the bar at some point and noticed that he was observing the woman, so she couldn't help but speak.

"She is indeed a very attractive big sister. So you like this."

[I thought this guy had changed his personality, but it turns out he just changed his taste. He is still a pervert after all]

Lin Ye calmly withdrew his gaze and looked at the girl in front of him with a smile.

Aragaki Kaho felt uncomfortable when she was stared at by him.

[What's that look in his eyes? Does he think I'm jealous? How is that possible, idiot, stop imagining it! ]

"Hello, checkout."

The sudden voice of a customer rescued Aragaki. Her stiff body was able to move again and she quickly fled from the bar.

At the bar, Kogoro Mori's attention was still attracted by Yoko Okino on TV.

Conan noticed that Lin Ye was observing the woman, so he followed her and took a look. Apart from the fact that she was pretty and had a good figure, he didn't find anything special about her.

He couldn't help but guess:

[Could this Uncle Lin Ye be a Mutual Pervert?]

Hearing Conan's inner thoughts, Lin Ye glanced at him speechlessly. The latter just raised his head and gave him an innocent smile.

At this time, the doorbell rang, and a slightly plump young man pushed the door and walked into the store. Judging from his clothes, he should be an ordinary employee of a company.

The man looked melancholy, as if he had something heavy on his mind, which caught Lin Ye's attention.

He likes guests who have stories the most.

He really enjoys the feeling of helping guests solve their worries.

When guests smile in front of him, his mood will also become happy.

This was an important reason why he decided to become a bartender and why he has always insisted on working behind the bar.

Even after he became famous in his previous life, he would sit at the bar of his own bar for at least three days a week, personally mixing cocktails for the guests and listening to their troubles.

After the slightly plump man entered the store, he went straight to the bar and sat down, sitting next to Kogoro Mouri.

"A whiskey on the rocks, please."

"OK, just a second."

When Lin Ye prepared a glass of whiskey with ice and placed it in front of the slightly fat man, he found that the guest, like the uncle Maori next to him, raised his head and stared straight at the TV on the wall. And his eyes were a little strange, as if he was not looking at a screen idol far away from him, but at a familiar person, his eyes were full of sadness.

Hey, is this person also a fan of Yoko Okino?
"Sir, your wine is ready." Lin Ye reminded.

"Oh, okay, thank you." The slightly plump man came back to his senses, picked up the wine glass and took a sip, then continued to stare at Yoko Okino on TV.

It seemed that the alcohol ignited the man's emotions. His eyes suddenly became hot like fire, and his eyes were full of possessiveness.

[Yoko, Yoko, my Yoko, you are mine, no one can take you away...]

Lin Ye was startled, and the way he looked at the man changed slightly.

Wow, this is an avid fan.

In his previous life, after he became famous in the bartending industry, he also received some celebrities.

Thanks to his good reputation in the industry, he never leaked his clients' private affairs to outsiders, so he gained the trust of female stars and knew a lot about their private lives.

What he heard most was the fear and complaints of female stars about their fanatical fans: stalking, secret photography, harassing phone calls, indecent photos, illegal intrusions into their homes, and even sudden bursts of naked bodies from ambushes...it was terrifying!
Could this slightly plump man in front of me also be this kind of perverted fan?
In order to confirm the other party's nature, he tried to strike up a conversation:

"Is the guest also a fan of Yoko Okino?"

The man nodded without further response.

But Lin Ye heard the voice in his heart.

[I am not some shitty fan. I am the one who loves her the most and the one she has loved the most! I can't live without her! I must get Yoko back to me at all costs, even if it means sacrificing her acting career or my life.]

Lin Ye understood that this was not only a crazy fan, but also a crazy boyfriend fan.

But he said that he wanted Yoko to "come back" to him and that he "loved" her. Did he date Yoko before?
Or was it just his fantasy? He had also encountered this situation before, where some fanatical fans imagined that they had an unforgettable love with their favorite stars, and they actually took it seriously.

In any case, this man's current thoughts are quite dangerous!
In this mental state, it is easy to act impulsively and do dangerous things.

Just when Lin Ye was thinking about how to calm this guy down, Maori Kogoro seemed to have found a confidant:

"Young man, are you also a fan of Miss Yoko?"

The look that Fujie Akiyoshi gave Mori was not so friendly.

In his opinion, all of Yoko's fans are his enemies, and they are the ones who prevent Yoko from returning to him.

If not so many people liked Yoko, she would not continue to be an idol and would return to herself.

"Yoko is mine, and belongs to me alone." Fujie Akiyoshi took a big sip of wine with a gloomy look in his eyes.

Kogoro Maori was stunned for a moment, then he laughed.

"Haha, young man, you are so selfish. You actually want to monopolize Miss Yoko. This is not okay."

Maori took a sip of beer and pointed at the beautiful figure on TV.

"Ms. Yoko belongs to everyone. We should all like her and support her."

Snapped!
Fujie Akiyoshi slammed the bar and stood up suddenly.

"Mr. Bartender, check."

Looking at Fujie Akiyoshi leaving the bar, Mouri Kogoro shook his head and looked at the beautiful figure on the screen again.

"Ms. Yoko, it's not easy for you either. You actually have such a scary fan."

Conan on the side chuckled.

[I don't think you're any better, uncle? You're such a grown man, but you still yell and whistle at the TV.]

Lin Ye looked out the window. The man's lonely figure looked like a wandering soul. He couldn't help but shook his head helplessly.

I was originally planning to enlighten him, but it seems I’ll have to wait until next time.

If he comes to the store again.

I hope he doesn't do anything stupid.
