The Pirated Onmyoji of the Detective World

Conan had just breathed a sigh of relief when he suddenly remembered something terrifying, and his face turned deathly pale.

Sonoko will be coming...

Doesn't that mean she and Xiaolan are very likely to choose to continue shopping in the afternoon?

One little Ran is already terrifying enough, but if you add a gossipy old woman like Yuanzi on top of that...

Not good!

……

Regardless of what Conan was thinking, Sonoko arrived more than ten minutes later.

"Lan, I'm here!"

Seemingly afraid that Ran wouldn't notice her, Sonoko, who was in the distance, waved her arms excitedly as she ran towards Ran after seeing her.

Completely ignoring the strange looks from passersby, she showed no signs of being a well-bred young lady or a wealthy heiress.

"Sonoko." Ran, on the other hand, seemed a little embarrassed. After responding softly to Sonoko, she gave an apologetic smile to the passersby who had been startled by Sonoko.

"Hey! You little rascal, long time no see!"

Sonoko, however, seemed completely unaware of this, and plopped down in the seats next to Conan and Ran, while also ruffling Conan's head.

"Sonoko-neechan, good afternoon." Although he was a little annoyed, Conan, now a child, had no choice but to put on a well-behaved act.

hateful!

He calmly shook off Sonoko's hand from his head, secretly vowing to give this guy a good beating later.

After chatting for a while, Sonoko and Ran got up to head to their restaurant since it was getting late.

For Sonoko, who is a wealthy woman, the restaurant she would book in advance would naturally not be an ordinary restaurant, but the Suitoro in Beika Town.

Therefore, it will naturally take a lot of time to get there.

However, just as the group ran out onto the street to wait for a taxi, a sentence coming from not far away caught their attention—

"I wonder who Miwako's blind date is today!"

The group turned around and found that in a traffic patrol car parked not far away, policewoman Yumi Miyamoto was leaning against the door, muttering something to herself, looking rather bored.

For the gossipy Yuanzi, this sentence was like a shark in the sea smelling blood.

Furthermore, since she and Ms. Yumi were acquaintances due to a few cases, she excitedly pulled Ran to Yumi Miyamoto's patrol car and asked, "Ms. Yumi, is Officer Sato going on a blind date?"

"Ah!" Miyamoto Yumi, who was lost in thought, was obviously startled by the group of people who suddenly appeared beside her. When she came to her senses and saw the familiar faces beside her, she smiled and greeted them, "Oh, it's you guys, Ran, Sonoko, and Conan. It's been a long time! Yes, I think Miwako must have met the male lead by now."

"Oh?"

Ran and Sonoko both seemed a little surprised; they had just thought they were hallucinating and had misheard.

Surprisingly, Officer Sato actually went on a blind date.

Now, even Conan became curious, "So, who exactly is Officer Sato's blind date?"

When this was mentioned, Yumi Miyamoto's expression turned strange. "To be honest, not only me, but even Miwako herself didn't know. She hadn't seen the photo; she just randomly picked a picture for the blind date and gave it to her mother."

"No way!" Sonoko couldn't understand Officer Sato's actions.

"So she's on a blind date with someone she's never met before!" Even Xiaolan muttered helplessly, subconsciously worrying about Officer Sato's blind date.

"Oh, don't worry!" Yumi explained confidently. "Since he knows that Miwako is a female detective, I think he must be an honest man with no criminal record! Besides, Miwako has no intention of dating him at all. She's only meeting him to appease her mother!"

"I see..." Xiaolan and the other two looked enlightened.

Then, Yumi said with a smile, "That's why Miwako didn't let me tell everyone about this. After all, Miwako is quite popular in the bureau, and it would be bad if her going on a blind date caused any commotion."

The reason she's saying this now is, of course, to remind Xiaolan and the others not to tell anyone about it.

"But what if the other person is interested in dating Officer Sato?"

Xiaolan also expressed her concerns at this time.

Although Officer Sato can be a bit hot-tempered at times, it has to be said that she is very attractive and has a great presence, not to mention the added advantage of being a detective.

She would undoubtedly be the dream girl of many men.

"Don't worry!"

Upon hearing Ran mention this, Miyamoto Yumi winked playfully, clearly having anticipated this situation.

"As soon as Miwako senses something's wrong, she asks me to help her get out of the matchmaking event. If the other guy finds out she's a policewoman who's always rushing out to solve a case, no one would want to marry a woman like that!"

"But……"

Just when everyone thought Miyamoto Yumi's explanation put them at ease, Conan noticed a blind spot in the matter: "But aren't you on duty right now?"

Chapter 535 The best candidate is, Aragaki Yu?

"So, that's what I was worrying about just now!" Miyamoto Yumi explained, sticking out her tongue sheepishly. "I didn't expect that today it would be my turn to be on duty, along with Takagi and Officer Chiba. Asking someone else for help would be too much trouble."

Hearing this, Sonoko became excited and quickly volunteered to Miyamoto Yumi, "In that case, we can help too!"

"But...won't this disturb you?" Miyamoto Yumi seemed a little hesitant.

After all, if this kind of thing involves other people, it can be quite troublesome.

“Of course, no problem. We don’t have anything to do this afternoon anyway! Right, Ran?” Sonoko tilted her head and looked at Ran beside her, while winking at her.

"Huh?" Ran was clearly not expected Sonoko to say that. After a moment of surprise, she slowly nodded. "Yeah."

“We really don’t have anything to do this afternoon!” Conan quickly raised his hand and said.

After all, this was much easier and more fun than going shopping with Ran and Sonoko.

“Alright…” Miyamoto Yumi hesitated for a moment, about to agree, but when her eyes caught a glimpse of a figure on the sidewalk, she immediately changed her mind. “Wait a minute, compared to you, it seems there’s a better candidate now!”

"Ok?"

"A better candidate?"

Xiaolan and the other two were clearly puzzled when they heard this.

Immediately, they followed Miyamoto Yumi's gaze and turned to look behind them, only to find a familiar figure slowly walking towards them. "Ran, Sonoko, and Conan, what are you doing here?"

"Brother Aragaki, it's been so long!"

Ran and the other two looked at Aragaki Yu with some surprise at his sudden appearance.

"And this policewoman, may I ask what kind of case has occurred here?" After nodding to Yumi Miyamoto inside the car, Yu Aragaki looked at Ran with a puzzled expression.

He naturally recognized Miyamoto Yumi's identity.

Aside from his memories of his past life, if he remembered correctly, he had met this female traffic officer once before when he was riding in Officer Sato's car.

However, if he rashly calls out the other person's name, the other person might think he is someone with ulterior motives.

"Hello, Aragaki-kun, this isn't our first meeting." Miyamoto Yumi didn't have many thoughts on the matter and waved enthusiastically to Aragaki Yu. "I'm Miyamoto Yumi from the Traffic Department. Nice to meet you."

She naturally had a deep impression of Miwako's "young boyfriend," whom she had met in Miwako's car before.

After all, she was really shocked when she saw the information about the little guy she had met once on the police's internal network.

"Hello, it's you!" Upon seeing the rather enthusiastic Yumi Miyamoto, Yu Aragaki first feigned a blank expression before revealing a look of sudden realization.

Ran and Conan didn't think much of the conversation between Yumi Miyamoto and Yuu Aragaki.

After all, it's quite normal for Yuu Aragaki, a high school student "detective," to come into contact with traffic policewoman Yumi Miyamoto.

On the contrary, Sonoko looked at Miyamoto Yumi and Aragaki Yu, who had strange expressions, and gave them a thoughtful, gossipy look.

"So, what are you doing here? Has some case happened?"

At this moment, Yuya Aragaki repeated his question from earlier.

After all, it would be strange if no cases happened when Conan was around.

"No, no!"

To Aragaki Yu's surprise, he had really misunderstood this time.

To prevent Aragaki Yu from overthinking, Ran quickly waved her hand and explained why she, Sonoko, and Conan were hanging out there.

However, this reason left Aragaki Yu somewhat bewildered—

Officer Sato? A blind date?

How could he be completely unaware that such a plot could occur?

However, his expression quickly turned strange. If Officer Sato were to go on a blind date, wouldn't he scare his date?

“So…” At this moment, Miyamoto Yumi, who had been silent in the car for a long time, suddenly spoke up, “Young man Aragaki, there’s something I have to ask you for a favor…”

Seeing Miyamoto Yumi's wicked smile as she looked at him, Aragaki Yu suddenly felt a sense of foreboding.

"If Miwako encounters any trouble, I'll have to trouble you to help her!"

Aragaki Yu: "!!!"

He knew that Miyamoto Yumi's expression meant nothing good!

Miyamoto Yumi's suggestion surprised not only Aragaki Yu, but also Ran and the others standing nearby.

Seeing everyone's puzzled looks, Yumi Miyamoto smiled and explained, "Think about it, if it were the famous high school detective Yuu Aragaki who went to find Miwako, it would be much more believable than you two young girls doing it! After all, no one would think that Miwako, a detective, would hire a detective to act in order to avoid an arranged marriage!"
