Ke Xue Bartender

Chapter 29: The third day after Shinichi's absence, I miss him

"Uncle, what does Sanyang Kaitai mean?" Mitsuhiko asked when he didn't understand.

Lin Ye smiled and said, "Three Yangs Bring Good Luck, a Chinese auspicious phrase that originated from the Book of Changes, is often used to praise the beginning of a year, implying a good start."

Mitsuhiko nodded, looking as if he had learned something new.

Even Conan nodded secretly, taking note of this new knowledge.

For a detective, it is necessary to keep learning and enrich the knowledge base in his brain.

As another ancient Chinese saying goes -

Live and learn.

That's what a detective should be like, not just drinking and watching TV all day like Uncle Maori.

As Conan thought about it, he subconsciously began to despise Uncle Maori again. It was his fault that his butt was badly ravaged by the uncle last night.

Lin Ye has already started his performance here.

He threw three wine glasses into the air alternately. Sometimes they flew out from behind him, sometimes they flew over his head. Several children and one adult (Aragaki) could hardly keep up.

The crystal clear wine glasses reflected the light, like three sparkling elves dancing around Lin Ye.

His movements were calm and graceful, neither hurried nor slow, just like a magician.

Thinking that the performance was almost over, Lin Ye crossed his arms in front of his chest and caught a wine glass in each hand. The third wine glass fell on his head and stopped steadily, like a crystal prince's crown.

"Uncle is awesome."

"Bravo!"

"Can you teach me?"

The three little ones finally woke up from their dazzled state, clapped their hands vigorously, and looked at Lin Ye as if they were their idol.

Conan also started clapping.

[This guy is quite good.]

Even Aragaki Kaho's big eyes showed surprise and curiosity.

[This guy actually knows this trick, he is so secretive. How many secrets does he have? ]

Lin Ye bent down and bowed, and the wine glass above his head slipped off.

Several people outside the bar exclaimed, thinking that the wine glass was about to break, but Lin Ye reached out with his right hand and caught the falling glass between his slender middle finger and ring finger.

"Haha, the wine glass is my companion, how could I let it break?" Lin Ye said with a smile.

Conan laughed inwardly.

[This uncle is really good at playing. Even I was shocked. ]

Aragaki Kaho patted her towering chest and let out a long sigh.

[This stupid uncle, is it fun to play tricks on me? ]

"My uncle looks like a prince." Ayumi spoke without restraint and said what was in her mind directly.

She stared at Lin Ye, and a blush appeared on her little face.

[It’s a pity that when I grow up, my uncle will be old. Otherwise… no, no, and my uncle already has a sister Aragaki. When I grow up, their children will probably be old enough to help with the cooking.]

Lin Ye's mouth twitched. Oops, it seemed like he was too proud in front of a child.

Isn't this little girl too precocious?

"I don't want to be an astronaut anymore!" Mitsuhiko suddenly said loudly.

"I also want to be a bartender when I grow up. Uncle, can you be my master?" Guangyan was completely conquered by Lin Ye's cool skills and elegant temperament. He even gave up his original dream and said with a firm face.

Children's dreams are always changing. Yesterday, they wanted to be a scientist. Today, after watching a TV show, they want to be Kamen Rider. Tomorrow, they may want to be an idol star who sings and dances rap. Lin Ye smiled and said to Guangyan, "If you still remember today in ten years, come find me."

Mitsuhiko was overjoyed and nodded vigorously: "Yes, I remember it, Master!"

Lin Ye raised the corner of his mouth. This guy really knows how to climb up the pole.

If this kid is still interested in bartending when he grows up, he wouldn't mind taking him in as a disciple.

He hopes there will be as many bartenders as possible who can bring comfort to customers.

After drinking the orange soda, the three little ones reluctantly left the bar. After all, it was almost time for business to start, and if they stayed in the store, they would attract the attention of other customers.

Only Conan continued to stay in the store, and his excuse was naturally his detective training and he needed to observe the customers in the store.

But Lin Ye knew that he was waiting for Gin and Vodka to appear again.

Silly child, even if they come, what can you do now?

He glanced at Conan, who was sitting in the corner pretending to read a book, and shook his head slightly.

At this time, Conan's inner voice came.

[I have asked the doctor to make some detective equipment for me. I hope that the doctor's invention will be more reliable and come in handy this time. No matter what, I must bring those two guys to justice! ]

Detective gear?

What equipment could allow a first-grader to rival two criminal elites?
Lin Ye couldn't imagine that this was not a science fiction film.

He had also heard of the name of Dr. Agasa from conversations with guests. It was said that he was an inventor who always made a big fuss at home, but most of his inventions could not be sold and were not very reliable.

He also learned from Xiaolan that Kudo Shinichi and Professor Agasa were neighbors and had a very good relationship, so good that they could even take a bath together.

He really wanted to persuade Conan to be quiet, but this guy was too smart and had a rich imagination. He might infer something from his words, so he was cautious about this.

He doesn't want to be targeted by that mysterious organization.

Conan had been sitting in the store for a while when the door was pushed open.

With the sound of bells, Xiaolan pushed the door and entered the store. She was not alone. She was followed by a young girl wearing a headband and the same blue school uniform as Xiaolan.

"Conan, why are you here again? Didn't I tell you this is not a place for children?" After entering the store, Xiaolan immediately saw Conan sitting in the corner and said helplessly.

"Don't worry, Sister Xiaolan, I don't drink, and Uncle Lin Ye won't give me any." Conan defended.

No matter what Xiaolan said, he had to stay here and monitor, because those two guys would definitely come again.

"Is this the kid who lives in your house?" The girl with the headband glanced at Conan, touched her chin, and said suspiciously, "Strange, I feel like I've seen this kid's face somewhere before."

Conan was horrified and quickly lowered his head, with cold sweat on his forehead.

[No way, could it be that Sonoko still remembers what I looked like when I was a kid? But I wear glasses.]

Just as Yuanzi was about to walk over to take a closer look at the familiar kid's face, a gentle voice came from the bar:

"Xiaolan, is this your classmate?"

She looked in the direction of the sound and was immediately attracted by the man at the bar, and Conan's thoughts were instantly thrown out of her mind.

It doesn’t matter if it’s a little kid with glasses or anything like that, there’s a handsome guy here!

She, Suzuki Sonoko, is a handsome guy hunter.

All along, Yuanzi has been looking for the man destined for her. The moment she saw Lin Ye, she felt that she had found him again.

By the way, this was the...numerousth time this year that she had felt this way.

But it didn't matter, she believed that as long as she kept trying, one day she would find the destined man.

"Well, her name is Suzuki Sonoko. She's my good friend since childhood." Xiaolan introduced her to Lin Ye with a smile.
