Gin doesn't want to work hard

"How about I come along too?"

"I happened to have taken some photos earlier."

As he spoke, he didn't forget to look at Sonoko Suzuki with deep affection.

Seeing this, Sonoko Suzuki had no reason to refuse.

Just as she was about to nod in agreement.

"boom!"

A tray was placed heavily on the table.

The tray held the noodles they had ordered.

Makoto Kyogoku's attitude was not very good.

"Your dishes are all served."

"Also, it's best not to get too close to strangers you've just met."

The last sentence was addressed to Sonoko Suzuki.

Seeing that Masahiko Michiwaki was really about to successfully get close to Sonoko, Makoto Kyogoku couldn't help but remind him.

Sonoko Suzuki was somewhat puzzled by what she heard.

stranger?

Is he referring to Masahiko Michiwaki?

But she clearly thought that Masahiko Michiwaki was a pretty good person!

Besides, Makoto Kyogoku is a complete stranger to her.

It would be even stranger if he suddenly said something like that to her!

Sonoko Suzuki then completely ignored Makoto Kyogoku's words.

He then turned to Masahiko Michiwaki.

"If Mr. Michiwaki wants to come along, of course you can!"

"Then let's go together!"

Kyogoku Makoto, who hadn't gone far, paused upon hearing this.

He sighed inwardly and decided to follow quietly from now on.

Conan found Kyogoku Makoto's hostility towards Michiwaki Masahiko somewhat strange.

"Hey, bro, do you have some kind of grudge against that shop assistant?"

Upon hearing this, Michiwaki Masahiko shook his head in surprise.

"not at all."

"This is the first time we've met today."

Hearing this, Conan didn't say anything more, but a seed of doubt was planted in his heart.

Chapter 154 Take action

Now that I've decided to get the photos developed...

After finishing their meal, the group prepared to set off.

As a tourist destination.

【The first time I saw you was on fire. The first time I saw you was on fire.】

There are places that specialize in developing photos near the coast.

After asking around, Sonoko Suzuki quickly obtained the exact location.

Since none of them had any other plans for the afternoon.

Following Masahiko Michiwaki's suggestion, the group prepared to walk there.

After they left.

Makoto Kyogoku, who was helping out at the restaurant, immediately took off his apron, greeted the staff, and hurriedly followed.

at the same time.

A fat man who was sitting next to Kurosawa and his group also put down his cutlery.

Followed silently.

……

On the way to the photo studio.

Sonoko Suzuki walked side by side with Masahiko Michiwaki at the front.

Behind them are Ran Mouri and Conan.

Kurosawa walked alone at the very end.

He glanced back subtly.

A chubby man was following them at a distance that wasn't too close.

In addition, Makoto Kyogoku was also there.

However, his disguise was much better than that of the fat man.

At least it won't make him immediately noticeable.

Kurosawa withdrew his gaze and continued forward as if he hadn't noticed anything.

Just now.

Two girls walked towards us from the opposite intersection, and their conversation drifted over.

"Hey, did you hear that?"

"I hear another woman has died nearby!"

"Ah? How could this happen?"

"Was it the brown-haired woman who died again this time?"

"Yes."

"This is terrifying, maybe we should hurry back..."

The two girls talked and quietly quickened their pace.

Upon hearing the keywords, Conan immediately chased after them and asked for details.

original.

Just last night, a woman with brown hair was stabbed to death in the woods.

A similar case occurred a year ago.

A year later, the murderer struck again, and his target was the woman with tea-colored hair!

After learning the details of the case.

Sonoko Suzuki couldn't help but feel a little panicked.

"What?! That's terrifying!"

She also had brown hair.

Could I be targeted by criminals as their next target?

Thinking about it this way, Sonoko Suzuki felt her whole body stiffen.

It felt as if a pair of eyes were watching me from the shadows!

Sonoko Suzuki was startled by her own guess.

Seeing this, Michiwaki Masahiko immediately offered words of comfort.

"Don't worry, I'll protect you!"

As he spoke, he put his arm around Sonoko's shoulder.

Sonoko Suzuki's face turned red instantly.

But she did not resist, as if she had acquiesced to Masahiko Michiwaki's actions.

"Kacha!"

A sound of a branch snapping came from the nearby woods.

"Who?"

Conan immediately shouted.

Everyone looked over.

Then I saw what looked like a figure flash by in the woods.

"stop!"

Conan immediately gave chase.

"Wait! Conan!"

Seeing this, Ran Mouri had no choice but to follow.

They saw that the two of them had run into the woods.

A meaningful glint flashed in Michiwaki Masahiko's eyes.

He said to the garden.

"Shall we go in and take a look?"

"it is good!"

Sonoko Suzuki agreed.
