Conan's Exorcist Detective

Chapter 75 Suzuki Sonoko launched an effective attack (seeking first order or 2)

Kousaka Haruhiko didn't sleep well that night.

As soon as he closed his eyes, the image of Sato Miwako wearing a white kimono with a serious face but half-exposed shoulders repeatedly appeared in front of him.

The next day, Haruhiko had to go to school with dark circles under his eyes.

The Kendo Club of Teitan High School has morning exercises every morning, so students from the Physical Education Department have to come to school earlier than others.

Because Haruhiko got up late, when he arrived at the kendo club's indoor practice field, many members had already started their morning exercises.

The sound of bamboo swords clashing was endless. The ponytails of the kendo girls swung back and forth as they swung their swords. The way they sweated profusely was a beautiful sight that the boys in the school talked about with great relish.

Haruhiko was about to practice swinging his bamboo sword when he spotted a unique figure among the group of kendo girls.

First of all, she doesn't have a ponytail and can't swing it around.

Secondly, she was like a wild beast that had just been released from a cage, much more excited than others.

Finally, the delicate bare feet revealed from the hem of her indigo blue kendo uniform made Haruhiko feel very familiar.

As expected... the other person seemed to suddenly notice Haruhiko's gaze and turned around.

"Suzuki-san, you finally came to school." Haruhiko greeted with a smile.

Suzuki Sonoko's pupils shrank, as if she had seen something horrible, and she said with an unnatural expression: "Good morning, Kosaka-kun."

After saying that, she ran to the other side of the kendo hall to practice sword swinging.

Haruhiko scratched his head awkwardly. He was confused. Could it be that their relationship was so limited that just a greeting would suffice?

If I remember correctly, not long ago he had just performed a scene where he went deep into the enemy's lair and rescued the princess from the clutches of the dragon.

Shouldn't we live happily in the castle with the princess at this time?

Even if there is no castle in reality, it would be fine to be able to practice sword happily in the kendo club and enjoy the envious looks of other members.

But why is the princess hiding from me as if she is scared?
Haruhiko remembered that ever since that incident, Suzuki Sonoko's attitude towards him had always been very cold, and she would only reply with a few words perfunctorily when he sent text messages.

Was she scared by the kidnapping? Did she want to distance herself from him? Or was it because her family wouldn't allow her to be with such a troublesome guy?
To be honest, Haruhiko was still a little disappointed.

However, he chose to respect Suzuki Sonoko's choice. After all, he was now involved with the winery, and he might encounter more dangerous things in the future. Perhaps this was the best choice for her.

Thinking of this, Haruhiko picked up his bamboo sword and went to the corner to practice swinging the sword.

After a while, there was a loud noise in the venue. Haruhiko turned around and saw two people practicing with bamboo swords.

"Sasaki-kun, show us your strength." Suzuki Sonoko laughed excitedly, and the bamboo sword in her hand swung out a shadow and attacked the opponent.

The buzz-cut junior student across from her could only defend himself: "Suzuki-senpai, can't I just admit defeat?"

"No, a man should show his true character." Yuanzi was in high spirits and had no intention of letting go of this equally powerful opponent.

Haruhiko could tell at a glance that Suzuki Sonoko might not be a match for that person. The other party was just afraid of her status in the school and did not dare to use her true strength.

Sure enough, not long after, the crew-haired Sasaki-kun finally couldn't bear it anymore and burst out with his true strength.

Suzuki Sonoko screamed "Ah~" and was unfortunately hit on the shoulder by the bamboo sword and fell to the ground.

The other members also put down their exercises and gathered around.

Several fans who had a crush on Suzuki Sonoko grabbed the collar of Sasaki-kun's kendo uniform and said, "Who told you to hit him on the shoulder? Don't you know it's easy to get hurt?"

Sasaki-kun looked horrified: "I didn't, she dodged and that's why I hit her shoulder."

"Damn it, you still dare to be stubborn..." The man was ready to teach Sasaki-kun a lesson.

At this time, Suzuki Sonoko suddenly spoke: "I dodged too slowly. If I hadn't dodged, I would have been hit in the visor. I didn't expect Sasaki-kun to be so strong. I'm sorry for underestimating you before."

After hearing what Sonoko said, the man loosened Sasaki's collar and patted him on the shoulder: "Well, that move just now was quite good. Keep it up."

Sasaki-kun escaped.

Of course, most people's attention was still focused on Suzuki Sonoko. Mao Lilan had already squatted in front of Sonoko and asked, "Sonoko, how are you?"

Suzuki Sonoko frowned and said, "It hurts so much. My shoulder is burning and I feel like I've lost some feeling."

Mao Lilan looked worried: "Can I help you to the health room first?"

As she said that, she carried Suzuki Sonoko and left the kendo club.

Haruhiko wanted to go up and ask, but then he thought that if Sonoko really intended to cut off ties with him, doing so would only put her in a difficult position.

After finishing the kendo club practice, Haruhiko spent a boring morning. At lunchtime, Haruhiko ate some cheap ramen in the school cafeteria and headed to the classroom.

When passing the corner of the stairs, as expected, a figure jumped out from inside.

The two bumped into each other, but luckily neither fell down, otherwise Haruhiko was really worried that his unreliable fancy falling skills would force him to do something immoral.

Looking closely, I found that the person in front of me was actually Mao Lilan, who was holding fried noodles, bread, sandwiches, milk and other food in her hands.

"Mori-san, why are you so anxious?" Haruhiko helped her up.

When Mao Lilan saw Haruhiko, she showed an overjoyed expression: "That's great, Kosaka-kun, are you okay now?"

Haruhiko nodded.

Mao Lilan stuffed the lunch in her hand to Haruhiko and said, "I bought this for Sonoko. Could you please take it to the health center for me? I'm in a hurry to go to the Taekwondo Club. They have a tryout there today."

Having said that, she skipped away without waiting for Haruhiko to speak.

Haruhiko looked at the pile of food in his arms and thought, "It shouldn't be a big deal if I'm just delivering a meal. It shouldn't be too awkward if I just put it down and leave."

So he carried his lunch to the door of the health room and knocked gently, but no one responded.

Haruhiko opened the door and walked in.

The window next to the bed was open, and a gentle breeze blew in. Through the window, I could see the blue sky, and from the playground came the metallic sound of baseballs hitting each other...

The health room teacher seemed to be away. Only Suzuki Sonoko was lying on the bed by the window, seemingly asleep.

She had changed into her school uniform, and her long, beautiful legs wrapped in black stockings were naturally bent, revealing her fair skin between the pleated skirt and the stockings.

Since she was asleep, there was no need to wake her up. Haruhiko was about to put the food on the bedside and leave. But when he put the milk bottle down, the noise seemed a little louder. Suzuki Sonoko turned over in a daze and murmured, "Lan, why did you come just now? I'm almost starving."

But when she opened her eyes and saw that the person in front of her was Haruhiko, she suddenly sat up with a start.

"Kosaka-kun?"

Haruhiko explained, "Mori-san had an urgent matter to attend to at the Taekwondo Club, so he asked me to bring it over for you."

Yuanzi stroked her skirt with her hand: "Is that so..."

Seeing that she was in a bad mood, Haruhiko stood up and prepared to say goodbye: "Then you should have a good rest. I'll be leaving first."

"Wait a minute." Suzuki Sonoko called out to him.

Haruhiko turned around and looked at her in confusion.

Sonoko pointed to her bedside and motioned for Haruhiko to sit down: "I have something to tell you."

Haruhiko sat on the soft bed, with Suzuki Sonoko's long and beautiful legs next to his legs.

Sonoko hesitated for a moment and then said, "Although I've said it before, I still want to express my gratitude to you again."

Haruhiko smiled and said, "Really, there's no need. If it weren't for me, you wouldn't have been kidnapped."

The two fell silent again.

"How's your shoulder?" Haruhiko asked for small talk.

Sonoko curled up her legs and rubbed her small feet wrapped in black stockings on the bed sheets: "Much better, but it will probably take a few days to fully recover."

"In that case, I won't disturb your rest." Haruhiko stood up again and prepared to leave.

Suzuki Sonoko called him again: "Wait a minute, you..." She looked around and finally her eyes fell on the milk bottle beside the bed.

"Can you help me unscrew the milk? My hands are too weak." said Sonoko.

Haruhiko walked over, picked up the milk bottle, unscrewed it and handed it to her.

Yuanzi took it and took a few big gulps, but it seemed that she choked because she drank too fast. She started coughing violently, and a lot of milk dripped onto her black stockings, leaving white marks.

Haruhiko walked over and took the milk bottle from her hand and put it on the table. Sonoko freed her hands and patted her chest, and it took her a long time to recover.

"Slow down, no one is competing with you." Haruhiko was speechless.

Just as Yuanzi was about to speak, there was a knock on the door.

Then Mr. Tanaka from the Kendo Club came in.

"Teacher." They both greeted at the same time.

Teacher Tanaka had something to do in the morning and did not go to the Kendo Club. When he arrived, he heard that a student was injured in the morning, so he came to visit. After all, as the consultant of the Kendo Club, this was his responsibility.

After asking a few simple questions, he told Suzuki Sonoko not to come to practice for the next few days and wait until her injury healed.

"Then you should have a good rest. I'll go back first." said Teacher Tanaka.

"Goodbye, teacher." Sonoko nodded obediently.

When Mr. Tanaka reached the door, he suddenly said to Haruhiko, "Although I don't object to young people enjoying their youth, they should at least exercise some restraint in school."

Leaving these words behind, Mr. Tanaka left the health room.

Suzuki Sonoko looked at Haruhiko in confusion: "Hmm? What do you mean, teacher?"

Haruhiko pointed to the milk stains on her socks.

Yuanzi's eyes widened, obviously realizing that the teacher had misunderstood something.

Haruhiko was also a little embarrassed at this time and didn't know what to say. It seemed that their relationship was not yet at the level where they could talk about such topics freely.

But in this situation, Sonoko would usually react with anger, right? She'd probably say something like, "Damn it! What kind of filthy things are you thinking about?" and then kick herself out.

Then when you meet next time, just pretend nothing happened.

But when Haruhiko looked at Sonoko, he found that she was as panicked as a frightened deer: "What...what should I do?"

Haruhiko:? ?

Where's your big-girl persona? Where's your vicious language?
Shouldn't I be kicked out at this point while calling myself a pervert?

You're making it difficult for me...

However, seeing her abnormal behavior, Haruhiko had no choice but to comfort her: "Don't worry, I don't think Mr. Tanaka will tell anyone about it."

"But I have to take a make-up exam this afternoon. If others see me like this, they will definitely misunderstand me." Sonoko looked at Haruhiko with a pleading look.

Haruhiko thought for a moment and said, "How about taking off your socks? That way people won't misunderstand you."

Suzuki Sonoko clasped her hands together and exclaimed, "As expected of Haruhiko, you can come up with such a good idea right away."

Haruhiko suddenly noticed that she had changed the way she addressed him. She no longer called him Kosaka-kun. She had previously distanced herself from him, so why was she suddenly calling him a more intimate name?

Haruhiko thought about it for a long time but couldn't figure it out. Just when he was lamenting that women's minds were really hard to guess, Sonoko dropped another bombshell on him.

The bomb blew out a path he had never imagined.

Suzuki Sonoko lowered her head, her brown hair hanging down to hide her facial expression, but one could still see a blush on her fair face: "Um... my hand is injured, can you help me take it off?"

Haruhiko's eyes widened. "Huh? How did your hand get hurt? Weren't you just chugging milk with your hands?!"
Just as he was stunned, Sonoko stretched out her toes wrapped in long black stockings in front of him.

He looked at Suzuki Sonoko, who was so shy that she wanted to bury her face in the pillow, but still did not back down at all, as if she was going to give it her all today.

I recalled the series of events that had just happened - milk, coughing, taking the make-up exam...

A clear line of logic comes to mind.

Haruhiko suddenly realized that this might be an attack launched by Suzuki Sonoko on him.
