Detective: I'm Sato Miwako's Informant

Eri asked curiously, "Judging from your relieved look, were you very afraid of her?"

Shiraishi Xiu's face showed arrogance, and he waved his hand, saying, "Nonsense, we're just colleagues, I'm not afraid of her at all."

"Oh, let's go then, I'm tired."

"How about I carry you on my back?"

"No need, it's on the street."

"Then holding hands is okay, right?"

"up to you."

"Ha ha……"

Shiraishi Xiu smiled and reached out his hand, taking her soft palm in his, and they walked home together.

With the biggest crisis behind him, he was now very relaxed, joking with Eri as they walked, their voices and laughter never stopping.

Eri Kisaki lets Osamu Shiraishi take advantage of her, since she already has him, so she turns a blind eye to these small favors.

It was nine o'clock.

Shiraishi Osamu finally returned home.

As soon as the door opened, they saw two beautiful and angry faces; it was Ran and Sonoko.

Shiraishi Osamu blinked and said, "What are you two doing blocking the doorway... Didn't you say you were going to Osaka? I'm going to get my clothes and pack."

Sonoko, her arms still clasped together, tilted her head and squinted, saying in a low voice, "Shu, didn't you say you'd be back in half an hour? It's been an hour now. If you're any slower, we'll miss the Shinkansen."

Xiaolan also put her hands on her hips and sternly said, "We already made it clear on the phone that we're leaving at 9:30. Look, it's already 9 o'clock. If we wait until we get to Osaka, Kazuha's activities will already be over."

"Hahaha……"

Shiraishi Osamu awkwardly scratched his head, feeling a little embarrassed about breaking his promise. He quickly made up an excuse: "Ran, you misunderstood. I ran into your mother on the way. She wasn't feeling well, so I took her home."

Xiaolan's expression immediately turned to worry: "Is my mom alright?"

"I'm just a little tired, nothing serious."

"Oh...no, I need to call and ask."

Xiaolan immediately took out her phone and ran to an open space to make a call.

Sonoko looked at Shiraishi Osamu suspiciously, knowing that she had secretly taken a picture of Shiraishi Osamu and Aunt Eri Kisaki embracing each other last time.

She strongly suspects that the two of them may have already started an affair.

Now, upon hearing that Shiraishi Xiu had encountered Aunt Eri Kisaki on the street and was escorting her home, she simply couldn't believe it. The main reason was the content of the photos taken last time, in which the two of them were too ambiguous, which made her unable to help but have such suspicions.

Shiraishi Osamu felt uncomfortable under her gaze: "Sonoko, don't block the door. I'm going in to get something so we can leave quickly."

"oh?……"

Yuanzi drawled out her words, but still made way, watching Shiraishi Xiu walk past her. She followed him, muttering under her breath:

"Xiu, were you lying to Xiaolan just now?"

"What nonsense are you talking about? Really. Okay, don't come in. I'm packing my things. There are some things you can't see."

"I already saw it."

Chapter 0254: Yukiko is here too.

Time flies.

9:30.

Mihua Station.

Three men and three women arrived here in a hurry, but in the end they all missed the time.

They are...

Yukiko, Osamu Shiraishi, Ran, Sonoko, Kogoro Mouri, and Conan Edogawa—just those six.

Kogoro Mouri was worried about his daughter going to Osaka, so he decided to go with her.

Conan was invited by Heiji Hattori to go to Osaka, and Yukiko, worried about him, went with him. On the way, they met Osamu Shiraishi and the others.

"Phew... Great, I'm late. Time to wait for the next train."

Kogoro Mouri glanced at the time of the next shift, ignored Ran and the others, took out a cigarette, and went to smoke on the side.

"Ouch..." x2

Ran and Sonoko were screaming in frustration.

Both of them were carrying large backpacks, looking like they were on vacation. After making these disgruntled noises, they turned their heads together and glared fiercely at the culprit, the incredibly guilty man over there—Shiraishi Xiu.

Shiraishi Osamu didn't dare look at the two girls at all, and naturally shifted his gaze to his surroundings, observing the people coming and going as if they were very attractive to him.

Staring blankly...

Xiao Lan stomped her feet as she walked over, her cheeks pouting adorably, her eyes brimming with tears.

"Oh?... Xiu, it's all your fault. If you hadn't come back so late and lingered in the room for so long, we would be on the Shinkansen by now. This time it's all your fault."

"Haha... What an accident! I was already very fast. I didn't take anything important, just a few things. Look how light my backpack is."

"Hmph! What you took... was a change of clothes?"

"Uh... I guess so..."

"That's outrageous. It took so long just to grab a change of clothes. Otherwise, we definitely wouldn't have been late."

"Haha... Don't be angry, it's my fault, it's my fault."

Shiraishi Osamu wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

His eyes unconsciously glanced at Yukiko not far away, but Yukiko only made eye contact with him for a moment before looking away.

If it doesn't concern me, I'll stay out of it.

Of course she knew why Shiraishi Osamu was late, but she couldn't say it out loud, and she certainly wouldn't speak up for him anyway.

Xiao Lan complained for a moment and then stopped. The gentle girl then turned her attention to another issue:

"Xiu, have you had breakfast yet?"

"No, but I ate a piece of bread."

"You must be really hungry, let's go buy some!"

Before Shiraishi Osamu could answer, Ran pulled Sonoko to Yukiko's side and started chattering happily. Then the three women went into a bento shop not far away, instead of a convenience store.

Shiraishi Osamu caught up from behind and asked in surprise, "Are you going to buy train bento boxes?"

Sonoko smiled and said, "Yes, if you take the next Shinkansen, you'll definitely still be on it at noon. Do you want to?"

"Hmm... this..."

While Shiraishi Osamu was still pondering, the three women had already begun to act.

They gazed with great interest at the various bento boxes displayed, their eyes shining as they looked at the exquisite bento boxes and began to choose some delicious flavors.

Yukiko moved slightly away from the two girls, approached Shiraishi Osamu, and whispered:

"How did you end up with Xiaolan? What are you plotting?"

"What conspiracy?"

Don't play dumb with me!

"I should be the one asking that question. Xiaolan and I had already made plans. But now you've shown up again. I'm the one who thinks you have ulterior motives."

"When did you make plans with Xiaolan? How come I didn't know?"

"On the way back with Attorney Hefei."

"Then I'll call Eri and ask her. If you're lying to me, you're dead."

"Ask away, please feel free."

Shiraishi Xiu shrugged, appearing less afraid, since he was telling the truth. After thinking for a moment, he reached into his pocket, took out a few train tickets, and handed them to her.

Yukiko didn't quite understand. She glanced at the fire ticket and didn't realize what it meant.

"what?"

"Let's exchange our tickets and sit together later."

"I do not want!"

Yukiko turned her head away abruptly, pouting as if she were throwing a tantrum, and her adorable aura was overwhelming.

Her fair skin and beautiful face made her look very young, not at all like a woman over thirty-five.

Shiraishi Osamu glanced at Ran and Sonoko, who had already run to the other side to choose their bento boxes, and suddenly became bolder, stepping forward to hug her.

"You...ah...get away!" Yukiko was startled and pushed her hard. She looked behind her and, not seeing Ran and Sonoko, breathed a sigh of relief.

She turned her head and glared at Shiraishi Xiu, pressing her chest against his with all her might, not letting him take any further advantage.

"hey-hey.."

Shiraishi Xiu chuckled strangely, but didn't bully her. While keeping an eye on their surroundings, he teased her:

"You have to agree today, whether you like it or not. Otherwise, I'll just keep holding you like this, and Ran and Sonoko will definitely see us when they come over."

"You...you big bastard!"

Yukiko was furious and kicked him a few times with her little feet.

She's not afraid of anything except that her current relationship might be discovered by others, especially since her son is still around. If that were to happen, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Thinking of all this, she sighed helplessly, deciding she could only make do for now.

(Mano's) "Change, change, change, I promise you, let me go quickly, or we'll really be seen."

"That's great! Actually, I was just joking, because I was scared myself."

"Hmph... I won't believe you. One day I'll show you what I'm capable of."

"Hehehe...Jun"

Shiraishi Osamu smiled, raising an eyebrow knowingly, wondering what kind of "powerful" she meant by "powerful."
