Detective Conan's Cafe Owner

Chapter 229 If Suddenly Disappears...

Can I walk over the speed limit?

Maybe, maybe not.

The police lady didn't think too much about this issue, she laughed "hehe" a few times, and went to conduct the so-called investigation.

Qingming didn't care about her either.

He is not interested in knowing what happened outside and why Miyamoto Yumi came here.

He is not a very curious detective.

Curiosity can kill a cat. Qingming doesn't want to kill a cat for no reason. Otherwise, what if the black cat outside the door dies?What if the witch came directly to the door?
Moreover, even if it wasn't a black cat that died, but a blue cat and a rainbow cat, that would be bad.

Although Qingming still doesn't understand how curiosity can kill the cat.

"Sure enough, there are still too many things in the world that I don't know. I should continue to study in a low-key manner!"

Shaking his head, he sighed.

Then he lowered his head and continued to study the contents of the ancient books.

……

Time flies when you are immersed in something.

Because it was a day off, Conan and Mori Kogoro stayed in the coffee shop all day, just to solve the problem of the mobile phone, and the things behind it were not simple.

But for Qingming, as long as the Third World War has not broken out, as long as the end of the world is not coming, it doesn't matter.

There are so many things happening in this world every day, if you care about everything, do you still need to do things?

in the afternoon.

A group of people suddenly ran towards the outside, and even Azusa Enomoto followed.

Maybe something has been discovered.

"Shopkeeper, anyway, there are no customers now, so I'll be lazy for a while!"

"..."

Watching a group of people disappear at the door.

In this regard, Qingming could only shake his head helplessly.

"Even Ah Zi has learned to be absent from work. She was so dedicated before, but the world is indeed changing all the time!"

Everything changes, nothing lasts forever.

Well, maybe there is.

For example, time with no beginning or end, or death.

What is time?What is death?

Not sure.

Even Taoists don't know this.

Although Qingming knows that after death, people will enter the so-called "six realms of reincarnation", or they may turn into ghosts and stay in the world.

But after all, I haven't seen it.

I haven't been to the underworld or encountered ghosts, so I can't confirm that these are real.

Perhaps, should die once to try?

But if you really want to say it, Qingming can be regarded as a person who died once, after all, he is a time traveler.

but……

Does the so-called "previous life" really exist?

Maybe it was just a dream.

There is a world in the dream, and another world after waking up.

"..."

frowning.

After a long time, he laughed at himself and shook his head.

"It's really meaningless!"

……

evening.

The mobile phone thing has been resolved.

Qingming didn't ask about the details, and Azusa Enomoto knew he wasn't interested, so she didn't tell him.

At this time, there will be no guests.

"Shopkeeper, are you going back tonight?"

"Hmm... Let's have dinner here, and call Hoonami."

"understood."

Azusa Enomoto responded.

Occasionally, Qingming would choose to have dinner in a coffee shop, but she would still go back to the manor afterwards.

For Qingming, it's just that the people who eat with him are different.

Other than that, nothing is different.

Azusa Enomoto walked to the counter, picked up the landline phone and dialed the number of the manor, and someone answered soon, told Qingming about not going back for dinner tonight, and hung up the phone.

Then go prepare dinner.

"Azi."

Qingming spoke suddenly.

Azusa Enomoto stopped, turned around, and looked at him suspiciously.

"What? What do you want to eat?"

"Can I eat you?"

"Be careful if you talk nonsense again, I will make you a human meat bun."

"Hey, you know all this stuff? It seems that you usually read novels from Huaxia."

"Humph!"

Azusa Enomoto snorted softly.

Looking to the side, it seems to be muttering and explaining.

"You have to learn something about Chinese culture, otherwise it will be very troublesome in the future..."

The sound is getting lower and lower.

However, Qingming heard every word of what was said.

stunned for a moment.

Then he laughed, a sunny smile.

"Azi, you're still so cute!"

"No road race (long-winded)!"

"But since you've said that, do you want to go back to the manor to have sex with me tonight?"

"Don't go!"

"Really not going? Then I should ask Naoko. Speaking of which, it's been a long time since I went to play with Naoko. I miss it, and she definitely doesn't mind being with me."

"Go to hell!"

"Hahaha……"

Qingming burst out laughing.

As for Enomoto Azusa, she let out an uncomfortable "hum" and walked towards the kitchen.

Just got to the door.

"Hey, Ah Zi."

Qingming yelled again.

She stopped and turned her head impatiently, looking at Qingming.

"What else?"

"It's nothing, I just have a question I want to ask you."

Qingming shook her head.

The smile didn't know when it had disappeared, and his face was expressionless.

It seems a bit...

lonely?

Maybe, it looks a little bad anyway.

"If one day, I suddenly disappeared, you... what would you do?"

"disappear suddenly?"

"Well, it's just a hypothesis, and you have to understand that there are many accidents in this world. What if something happens to me? No one can tell what will happen in the future. You agreed to have sex with me in seconds, right?"

"For your size, hum!"

Azusa Enomoto pouted.

It seemed that he was too lazy to say anything to him, and walked into the kitchen without giving any answer.

"Really..."

Qingming shook her head.

I stayed for a while, and then continued to read.

……

dinner time.

Qingming and Enomoto Azusa sat face to face, eating delicious food, neither of them spoke.

for a long time.

"Here, shopkeeper."

"Ok?"

"About the question just now..."

"Oh, it's not an important question. It's okay if you don't answer it. Don't worry about it."

Qingming smiled and shook his head.

Seeing this, Enomoto Azusa became silent again, just eating food in silence.

And so on for a while.

"If the owner suddenly disappears one day, I probably won't do anything."

She still had an answer.

Qingming seemed to have expected it, nodded and said nothing, and there was no expression on his face.

And Azusa Enomoto said with a smile.

"Shopkeeper, you are a Taoist priest. I have superpowers. I'm just an ordinary person. If you really want to disappear suddenly, I don't know the reason, and it's even more impossible to find you..."

Say so.

Seeing that Qingming's expression remained unchanged, his tone became weaker.

Another chuckle.

"At most, I'll help you keep an eye on this coffee shop and the manor, but I don't think I'm needed in the manor...whatever happens, you won't disappear suddenly, the shopkeeper...you won't?"

"..."

Qingming bit her chopsticks, looked at her, and stared at her.

There may be many things that can be seen in the eyes.

Or maybe nothing can be seen.

for a long time.

"Well, probably not."

Qingming nodded.

Such an answer only got Enomoto Azusa to roll her eyes.

"What is 'should'?"

"'Should' means uncertainty. As I said before, the future is unknown. No one knows when and what kind of accident will happen. Maybe I suddenly travel through time and space."

"Traveling through time and space? You really think about it, such a thing..."

"There are people with abilities like me, so what's so strange about traveling through time and space?"

"..."

Azusa Enomoto did not speak.

If you think about it, there is such an unscientific existence of "Qingming" in the world, and it is not surprising to travel through time and space.

Qingming stretched out his hand and patted her on the head.

"Don't think about it, eat quickly, the food is almost cold."

"Oh."

Azusa Enomoto nodded.

It's useless to think about these things here.

Anyway, if something like this really happened, there was really nothing she could do but wait.

In this coffee shop, I have been waiting.

Maybe I will soon become impatient and will not continue to wait.

Or maybe, it will wait forever.

Who knows.
