Conan: Start from Lucky Three

Chapter 192: A Victory from Heaven? No, It’s a Childhood Sweetheart’s!
After Shiratori said this, neither Ran nor Sonoko reacted, but Tachibana Seiji did.

The so-called just breaking up with the ex-girlfriend is just a face-saving statement. After all, it is at someone else's wedding and you can't openly say that the groom is cheating on you, right?
In fact, only the parties involved know whether the groom broke up with his ex-girlfriend at that time or when he broke up with his ex-girlfriend.

Not only did he seamlessly connect with Sayuri Matsumoto right after breaking up with his ex-girlfriend, but it was enough to make Sonoko and Ran feel disgusted.

"Why is this happening?" Yuanzi complained directly.

They came to the wedding with blessings and good wishes, but the groom's behavior was like a fly falling on a delicious dish.

Some people may think that it does not affect their eating, but some people feel disgusted just by looking at it.

"It's not just that." Once the topic started, even Shiratori's interest was piqued.

From the fact that he joined the Sato Miwako Defense League, we can tell that Shiratori is essentially a funny guy, but it is not convenient to talk about this with the guests just now.

It's different for Tachibana Shizuka and the others.

Shiratori never treated Tachibana Shizuka as a child at all. It was impossible for a normal child to connect himself with the criminal police, the public security, and the explosive ordnance disposal team on his own.

As for Sonoko, there is no need to mention her. She is the second daughter of the chairman of the Suzuki Group.

"I heard, just heard." Shiratori first put a layer of buff on herself and then continued: "I heard that Miss Matsumoto originally had a childhood sweetheart."

"Huh?" Xiaolan and Sonoko were very surprised. To be honest, they were a little allergic to their childhood sweethearts these days.

"Actually, we can't be considered childhood sweethearts in the conventional sense. After all, we only knew each other when we were young, but we lost touch later.

But I heard that Miss Matsumoto hasn't had any contact with boys in these years because of this childhood sweetheart.

But then, somehow, she was pursued by Takasugi Toshihiko. I guess Miss Matsumoto is tired of waiting aimlessly, right?

Ah this
Shiratori's words were so insightful that they left both Tachibana Seiji and Sonoko speechless.

To be honest, when they mention childhood sweethearts and aimless and endless waiting, their first reaction is to think of Xiaolan.

The direction of this topic is extremely obvious. If Tachibana Shizuka had not been sure that Shiratori was unaware of the situation, he might have thought that Shiratori was a hired assassin.

Yes, Officer Shiratori, you are absolutely right!

"Brother Shiratori, come here quickly, Manager Matsumoto will be here soon!" Officer Megure waved to Shiratori from a distance.

As a superior and senior, Inspector Megure is very qualified.

Aren't we all here just to show up in front of our bosses? This kind of ceremony leaves an impression on the boss before it even begins, so if the boss can remember it at a crucial moment, it's a good thing.

"Then I'll leave first. By the way, don't tell anyone what I said!" Shiratori hurried away after hearing the call from Inspector Megure.

Although his family background allows him to completely avoid such unnecessary social engagements, if Shiratori participates, his family background will also make him stand out among ordinary people.

Even if they are eating at a roadside stall, being treated by an ordinary person and being treated by a rich young man have completely different meanings to some goddesses.

After Shiratori left, Tachibana Seiji and Sonoko looked at Xiaolan and found that Xiaolan was unexpectedly calm.

"What's wrong? What are you looking at?" Xiaolan looked at Tachibana Shizuka and Sonoko curiously:

"Isn't what Officer Shiratori said quite reasonable?"

The reality is that filters can't be applied forever. Once a filter is broken, or passively disenchanted, it can always cause a dramatic change in one's attitude. For example, these past few days, Xiaolan has occasionally thought about what she used to do: waiting in the same place from morning till night, then worrying about others foolishly.

As a result, in order to solve the case, the other party forgot about himself.

She wasn't angry or embarrassed, but sometimes when she thought about her past experiences, Xiaolan always wanted to laugh.

What was she thinking at that time?

"Yes, yes, what Officer Shiratori said makes perfect sense. Let's go and see the bride first!"

Tachibana Shizuka and the others also arrived early, partly because they had just finished school, and partly so they could see the bride in her dressing room in advance.

All girls have an instinctive yearning for wedding dresses.

"This is the bride's dressing room." A staff member took Tachibana Shizuka and the other two to the dressing room door and then said goodbye and left.

Yuanzi walked up and knocked on the door expectantly, and pushed the door open after hearing the sound inside.

"It's Sonoko and Ran!"

Sayuri Matsumoto, who was sitting on a chair to rest, looked very happy to see her two students.

As a teacher, what could be better than receiving blessings from your former students when you get married?
After greeting Ran, Matsumoto Sayuri and Sonoko, she subconsciously looked behind them, only to see Tachibana Shizuka walking in.

"Huh? Didn't Kudo come with you? Come to think of it, I sent him an invitation as well.

By the way, is this your classmate?"

"Shinichi is investigating a case out of town right now, so he probably can't come." Xiaolan explained to Matsumoto Sayuri using Conan's own excuse.

As for Tachibana Shizuka.
"Hello, Mr. Matsumoto. My name is Tachibana Shizuka, and I'm a classmate of Sonoko and Ran. Please forgive me for disturbing you."

"It's okay, it's okay. Welcome, Tachibana-san." Teacher Matsumoto smiled and waved her hand to indicate that Tachibana Shizuka didn't need to be so polite. Then she seemed to think of something.

"It looks like Kudo has lost an important competition. How can that kid still have the heart to solve the case in this situation?"

Sayuri Matsumoto sighed deeply. It seemed that these boys who had childhood sweethearts always matured later than boys of the same age?
But have they never thought that if they realize something too late, it will be completely too late?
"Isn't this perfectly normal, Mr. Matsumoto? After all, a sweetheart sent from heaven is not as good as a plum blossom. This is almost becoming a theorem.

Isn't it the same for you, Mr. Matsumoto?"

Sonoko was still carefree, but what she said made Matsumoto Sayuri smile without saying anything.

“That’s different.”

As soon as Yuanzi finished speaking, the door of the dressing room behind her opened, and a woman holding a plastic bag stood at the door.

She shook her head at Yuanzi and took out a can of lemon tea from the plastic bag.

"Sayuri, your lemon tea."

"Thank you, Kazumi." Sayuri Matsumoto took the lemon tea with a smile and thanked her.

Yuanzi looked at the woman named Yimei strangely and asked curiously: "This is different. What does it mean?
Could it be that Sayuri-sensei?! "
