Detective Conan's Cafe Owner

Chapter 237 So...

Ching Ming is very busy.

Although on the surface he lives a leisurely life drinking coffee and reading books, but he is indeed very busy.

This manifests itself mentally.

I have been thinking about it, and the research on Taoism has never stopped.

He has always been dissatisfied with the world he is in, so after having the hope of possibly traveling to other worlds, he naturally tries very hard to grasp this hope.

This is not easy.

Qingming knew this very well, so he redoubled his efforts and devoted more energy to the research on this Taoism.

But not much use.

Maybe it's his lack of strength, or maybe his comprehension is not enough, and the progress is not smooth.

Time passed quietly.

I don't know when it started, the temperature began to drop again, and it became colder.

The weather in this world is always so capricious.

night.

The cold wind kept blowing.

The open window, the white curtain fluttering gently.

Qingming temporarily put down all mental activities, stood by the window, blowing cold wind to calm himself down.

He does need to calm down.

Not only now, but most of the time, otherwise, sometimes when the head gets hot, you don't know what kind of things you will do.

Anyway, it won't be a good thing.

"Ugh……"

Sigh lightly.

I want to chat with someone, but I find that there is no one around me who I can talk to deeply.

"Sure enough, I don't get along well with this world!"

……

The temperature dropped.

People also wore a few more clothes, only Qingming remained unchanged.

morning.

After enjoying a delicious breakfast, Hui Yuanai went to school and Qingming went to the coffee shop, but there was still no interaction between the two of them.

I don't know who hangs who.

But this doesn't seem to matter, after all, the relationship between the two people is not good from the beginning to the end, it is better to say that Hui Yuan Ai didn't make some poison and put it in the tea and coffee he drank in Qingming, so it was already very good.

Maybe, killing Qingming can be considered as eliminating harm for the people?

Maybe.

But whether he can be killed is another matter.

At least it is not very possible to poison him to death, at least ordinary poisons will not work, it must be combined with some unscientific things.

I guess the witch can figure it out.

However, Koizumi Hongzi and Qingming can be regarded as a cooperative relationship. Qingming obtained a lot of information from her, and at the same time gave her a lot of information, each taking what they needed.

Of course, where there should be competition in the dark, they will continue to compete.

For Qingming, fighting against Koizumi Hongzi is truly in line with his status as a Taoist priest.

Perhaps it is better to find a Taoist temple to clean up?
Qingming thought about it.

Although this does not need to be considered at all.

It's true that he likes quietness, but if it's too quiet, he doesn't like it anymore. After all, human beings are social creatures, and it's impossible to stay away from the crowd for too long.

And he still wanted to watch a play, although he didn't seem to pay much attention to it from the beginning until now.

That aside.

Coffee shop, outside the door.

Qingming who came here happened to meet Xiaolan who was rushing to school.

Say hello.

Recently, Xiaolan seems to have given up on letting him go to school honestly, and rarely mentions this matter again.

But I mentioned it today.

"By the way, Qingming, a transfer student came to our class, do you want to get to know him?"

"No need."

Answer without hesitation.

In this regard, Xiaolan could only show a helpless expression.

"Ok."

She knew it would be like this.

Qingming doesn't seem to like to make friends, and when he goes to school once in a while, he will only talk to her, Suzuki Sonoko and Takei Naoko, and doesn't care about other people at all.

"I'm off to school, see you later."

smiled.

Without saying anything else, he walked towards the school alone.

Qingming went into the shop.

"Good morning, owner."

A new day begins again with greetings from Azusa Enomoto.

……

in the afternoon.

School time.

There are not many customers in the shop, perhaps because the sudden drop in temperature makes people not want to go out, so the coffee shop is relatively deserted today.

Ayumi is here.

Haibara Ai was also with her. It seemed that she hadn't been to a coffee shop for a long time, and this time she was with Ayumi.

"Oni sauce, Oni sauce."

Ayumi hasn't changed anything, she still likes to stick to Qingming.

The whole person climbed into Qingming's arms, sat on his lap, and faced him.

Still wearing a skirt.

Thinking about it carefully, it seems that the students of Neon wear the same clothes no matter the weather is hot or cold. Although there are differences between winter clothes and summer clothes, the skirts seem to never change.

But that's fine, Qingming likes it anyway.

Ignoring Hui Yuan Ai who was walking to the window by himself, he put down the book, smiled and patted the little girl's head.

Then lift up her skirt.

"Did you forget to wear fat (beep~) times today?"

"I hate it, so I won't forget it!"

"Really?"

"Humph!"

The little girl pouted, showing displeasure.

A pair of small hands hurriedly pushed down the skirt lifted by Qingming, and after staying with Hui Yuanai for a long time, she seemed to be more and more aware of the differences between men and women.

This is also a good thing.

Sometimes even Qingming is a little worried, if Ayumi has been unguarded against him, will he really do something bad.

Ayumi is not Haibara Ai, she is a real seven-year-old girl.

However, probably not.

Although there are indeed some bad actions occasionally, but for Ayumi, Qingming does not seem to have done any harmful actions.

Is there?

Qingming also can't remember clearly.

It doesn't matter either.

"You're still so cute!"

He raised his hand and squeezed the little girl's face, it was soft and comfortable to touch.

But he didn't continue to say anything.

Azusa Enomoto brought cake and milk for the little girl to eat, but Qingming just hugged her and fell into deep thought.

Hui Yuanai sat on the side alone.

Holding the coffee, he took a small sip, but stared at Qingming.

In her opinion, Qingming is quite dangerous.

She always felt this way, and Qingming's series of actions also confirmed this point.

However, this kind of danger seems to be only aimed at her. Facing other people, whether it is her sister, Ayumi, Enomoto Azusa, twin maids, etc., Qingming is almost harmless.

At least that's how she saw it.

So why?

It seemed to be like this from the very beginning, she still remembered that Qingming seemed not very happy the day she woke up in this coffee shop, and since then, it seems that she has been targeting her all the time.

So why?
There is no love for no reason, and no hate for no reason.

But she just couldn't figure it out.

She didn't know Qingming before, and after she met, she didn't do anything to apologize to Qingming. On the contrary, Qingming has always ignored her and always targeted her.

I really can't figure it out.

"call……"

After blowing on the still hot coffee, he took another sip.

His eyes were still fixed on Qingming.

She wanted to understand this matter, to be precise, she wanted to explain it clearly to Qingming, she felt very uncomfortable and aggrieved to be targeted like this for no reason.

But a little afraid.

For her, Qingming is not such an easy-talking person, if she asks directly, it may not be effective.

How to do?
She hesitated and pondered.

But there doesn't seem to be any particularly good way.

Maybe it's better to be direct?

"call……"

Sigh lightly.

So Qingming is really troublesome.
