Rebirth from Conan

Chapter 64 Strong Killing Intent

"Was the man's face injured?"

"He shouldn't be going to the villa..."

Conan and Xiaolan swallowed their saliva one after another.

Xia He spread his hands aside and said, "Who knows? Maybe he is just playing Cosplay."

For example, Uchiha Obito or something.

……

Even after she walked into the gate of the villa, the image of the bandaged man was still flashing back in Mao Lilan's mind.

It was just because the look in the other person's eyes when he turned around and looked at him was so scary.

It's like... looking at a dead body?
"Sister Sonoko, we're here, please open the door." Conan shouted while standing at the door.

"Really? Why are you here so late?" Sonoko pushed open the door angrily, but when she saw Xia He standing behind Conan, she immediately changed her attitude and said in a coquettish voice, "It doesn't matter if you're a little late. After all, there's still some time before dinner."

Conan: "."

"Sorry, there was a traffic jam on the way out." Xia He said.

"What's there to be sorry about?"

Yuanzi quickly stepped forward and took the luggage that Xia He was carrying. "Come in quickly. You must be tired after such a long journey. You should go to the room and rest first."

As he spoke, he looked down at the bag in his hand and said, "Hey, pink... isn't this your luggage?"

"Oh, it's not mine. I got it for Xiaolan."

"We're going to stay here for two days and one night. Don't you need to bring a change of clothes?"

"I'm used to sleeping naked."

Xia He thought, two days and one night?
nonexistent.

You just want to go home tonight.

When Ran Yuanzi heard the word "sleeping naked", he immediately started to have wild thoughts.

I saw her little face flushed, and I didn't know what she was thinking about until her sister came out of the kitchen with a cup of tea, "Oh, is it Sonoko's friend who is here?"

"Hello, Sister Ayako." Xia He greeted her immediately.

"Xia He, you were only this tall the last time I saw you. I didn't expect that in the blink of an eye, you have grown so big."

Suzuki Ayako smiled and handed Xia He a cup of black tea.

Xia He took it and said, "I haven't seen you for so long. Sister Ayako has become even more beautiful."

"Haha, you are still as talkative as you were when you were a kid." Suzuki Ayako smiled even more broadly after hearing that. "Oh, by the way, you guys should go to the room and put down your luggage first. I have prepared some refreshments, and you can come down and enjoy them later."

……

Xiaolan took Conan upstairs to put their luggage.

Xia He, who didn't bring any luggage with him, naturally sat down in the restaurant on the first floor and started showing off his tea and snacks.

He had seen this episode before, and the murderer didn't poison the snacks, so he ate them with great relish.

But after a while, a scream suddenly came from the second floor.

Sonoko and Ayako rushed upstairs upon hearing the noise, but it took them a long time to figure out that when Xiaolan was looking for her room, she opened three doors in succession, and in each door there was a shirtless man who was changing his clothes...

This made Conan, who witnessed the whole process, couldn't help but complain in his heart: Can't you knock on the door before opening it?

……

"Let me introduce you, this is Sakuno Natsukazu, my sister's fiancé."

In the restaurant on the first floor, Suzuki Ayako introduced Xia He to her friends.

Today was supposed to be a reunion for her university club, but because of Sonoko, there were an extra Natsuki, Ran, and Conan.

"He's so handsome. Sonoko is so lucky." The speaker was a short-haired woman who was dressed very fashionably - Chikako Ikeda.

He is also the author of the original novel of the movie "Blue Kingdom", which has been very popular on TV recently.

Xiaolan recognized her the moment she heard the name and praised her, "When I was in junior high school, I loved the novels you wrote."

"Haha, come to think of it, 'Blue Kingdom' was written by Chikako when she was a student. I didn't expect it to be released to the public until recently." Suzuki Ayako also interrupted at this time, smiling and sending her blessings to Chikako Ikeda: "I believe that Chikako will definitely become one of the most famous screenwriters in Japan in the future."

"Yes...really?"

Chikako also smiled when she heard that.

But the smile was very forced.

It was as if this work, which had won her countless flowers and applause, did not seem to satisfy her.

Others may not know why, but Xia He knows it very well.

"Blue Kingdom"...is actually a work plagiarized by Chikako.

The person she plagiarized was named "Atsuko" and was once a member of the film club.

Two years ago, Chikako's "Blue Kingdom" won the Best New Screenplay Award. When Atsuko learned the news, she chose to hang herself on the same night.

This is why Chikako's expression looked so embarrassed after hearing what Suzuki Ayako said.

"It won't be long before this woman is dismembered, right?"

Xia He began to recall the plot of this episode in his mind.

at the same time.

"You're the teenager who subdued the gunman with his bare hands on the plane three years ago, right?"

Among the other three boys, a long-faced man who was carrying a camera recognized Xia He.

His name is Hiroki Kadotani. After graduation, he works in a news agency. Photography can be said to be his biggest hobby in daily life.

"No wonder, I felt you looked familiar just now."

Another handsome man with long hair and a cigarette in his mouth, named Ota Katsu, was also a little excited at this moment and said: "I read a lot of reports about you at that time, and I admired you very much. I didn't expect to meet you here..."

"Really?" Xia He smiled and said, "My pleasure."

Only the fat boy among the three boys, Takahashi Ryoichi, frowned slightly at this moment, "Didn't we say that today is a gathering of our old classmates? Why are there other people here?"

"Um, Takahashi...you shouldn't mind, right?" Suzuki Ayako looked at Takahashi Ryoichi strangely.

She thought to herself, he is usually a very gentle person, why is he suddenly picking a fight today?

"No...of course I don't mind."

Perhaps realizing that he had lost his composure, Takahashi Ryoichi quickly scratched the back of his head and let out a silly laugh.

Xia He glanced at Takahashi Ryoichi and touched his chin thoughtfully.

As the topic continued to deepen, several students in the club, after talking about their recent situation, began to recall their past events in school.

"If that incident had not happened, Atsuko would be sitting here and chatting with everyone like us today..." said Suzuki Ayako.

Unexpectedly, she just finished speaking.

Snapped!
"Stop talking about Atsuko, okay?" Ikeda Chikako slammed the table, stood up and shouted, "I finally took some time out of my busy schedule to come here to relax, I don't want to waste my time on a dead person!"

"Chikako..." Suzuki Ayako looked at her in surprise.

Katsunori Ota on the side said: "Oh, once you become famous, even the tone of your voice becomes different."

The atmosphere in the restaurant suddenly became tense.

Seeing this, Xia He secretly looked at Takahashi Ryoichi who was sitting opposite him.

As expected, he caught a glimpse of extremely strong murderous intent in the fat man's eyes.
