Detective: I'm Sato Miwako's Informant

Yukiko rarely showed a deadpan expression, but she still took it, blew on it, and put it back into his mouth.

Shiraishi Osamu nodded in satisfaction, chewed and swallowed, and glanced at the watch on his wrist:

"I'm going to the restroom."

"You know what? I'll take you there..." Yukiko regretted it as soon as she finished speaking.

She just acted subconsciously because Ran, Sonoko, and Kazuha had all asked her the same thing that afternoon.

So, without realizing it, she blurted it out.

"Sure, I don't know the way anyway."

Shiraishi Osamu smiled brightly, grabbed her hand, and led her to play in the distance.

Yukiko stared blankly at Shiraishi Osamu, who was leading her away, and couldn't help but grumble to herself, "He said he didn't know anything, yet he's leading the way."

More than half an hour later.

The plaza below the castle tower.

The thunder overhead grew increasingly rapid.

Hattori Heiji looked at his childhood friend and shouted, "You idiot, you actually want me to go back to the castle tower? Do you think a normal person's wallet will fall out of their purse?"

Kazuha retorted, dissatisfied, "It's all because you kept urging me to hurry up, that I forgot where I put it in my haste!"

"Tell me, how much money is in your wallet?"

"Five thousand yuan..."

Hattori Heiji's already dark face seemed to darken even more, revealing dead fish eyes as he said helplessly:

"Forget about the money, it's getting dark anyway."

"No! The amulet inside is very important!"

"I……"

Hattori Heiji was about to say something when he suddenly felt a coolness on his face. He looked up and saw that a light rain had started to fall.

"It's raining."

"Let's hide as much as possible."

Xiao Lan and the others ran to the sheds nearby. Luckily, there were quite a few of these sheds, just enough for all of them to take shelter from the rain.

Kogoro Mouri looked at the rain outside and said, "It looks like this is going to rain for quite a while."

Xiaolan smiled and took a folding umbrella out of her bag: "It's okay, I brought an umbrella with me."

Sonoko tilted her head and said, "With so many of us, one umbrella simply isn't enough. It seems we'll have to take shelter here for a while. The rain doesn't seem too heavy; it should stop soon."

Not long after.

"All right……"

Xiaolan glanced at the umbrella in her hand, shook her head helplessly, then looked at everyone, blinked her eyelashes, and asked:

"Aunt Shu and Aunt Yukiko aren't here. I don't know where they went, or if they brought an umbrella."

Conan glanced at the plaza outside and saw that the tourists were all scrambling to find shelter from the rain, and soon the plaza became empty.

But after looking for a while and not seeing his mother and Shiraishi Xiu, he looked away, since they were both adults and there was no way something could have happened to them.

Sonoko glanced at the small shop not far away: "Kazuha, you might have left your wallet in that shop. Because, didn't you buy a camera there this afternoon?"

Kazuha nodded: "If that's the case, it really is possible."

Xiao Lan said, "Since I have an umbrella, why don't the three of us go take a look together?"

The three girls nodded, and finally, holding their umbrellas, they ran together towards the store.

However, coincidentally, there was a public toilet just ten meters away from that shop.

Kazuha was originally running towards the shop with Ran and the others, hiding under the umbrella, but when she turned her head, she saw Shiraishi Osamu and Yukiko running towards her from the direction of the restroom.

Before she could think any further, Xiaolan and Yuanzi led her to the shop entrance.

"Oh dear... oh dear..."

Shiraishi Osamu shouted and rushed to the shop entrance next door. Seeing Yukiko soaked, he quickly took off his coat and put it on her, saying:

"Use it as a towel to wipe yourself! Otherwise, you might get sick later."

"Hmph, at least you have some conscience."

Yukiko pouted and started wiping the rain stains off her clothes with his coat. Although she was being sarcastic, she felt warm inside.

Shiraishi tidied her messy hair and said gently:

"You're such a good girl, of course I'll take good care of you."

"roll……"

"Hey, is this what they call turning your back on someone?"

"go to hell!"

Yukiko's eyes were filled with shame and indignation, and she spat twice to the side, as if she were spitting out something or hinting at something.

Shiraishi Xiu shrugged, looked at the rain outside, and sighed:

"Damn it, I don't know how long this will last. Otherwise, I'll just have to wait here for the rain to stop."

"Idiot, there are shops all behind us, we can just buy an umbrella."

"Yeah, that's true!"

Shiraishi Osamu touched his nose, surprised that he hadn't thought of that.

Maybe it's because my mind is blank and I'm not thinking about these things. After all, when your mind is blank, it only operates in a simple way and you can't really think about anything.

He glanced at the woman, then suddenly froze, and quickly said, "Don't move!"

"What?" Yukiko asked, puzzled, but she didn't dare to move, not knowing what had happened.

Shiraishi Xiu leaned closer, blinked, and said again, "Feel your lips, how come there's a hair stuck to them?"

Yukiko touched the corner of her mouth, put her hand down, and looked down.

Sure enough, there was a short, curly hair.

She was completely stunned.

I stared blankly at that single hair.

A moment later, her eyes filled with anger as she looked towards the stall they had just left across the square and said viciously:

"That despicable merchant! They even put hair in the fried food. I'm going to file a complaint against them right now."

"Hey, don't be angry, don't be angry..."

Shiraishi Xiu quickly calmed the enraged woman down and said in a serious tone:

"They're just running a small business, so don't blame them. Otherwise, their sales wouldn't even cover the fines."

"Am I just going to let this go?"

Yukiko pouted angrily, but her eyes were fixed on Shiraishi Xiu, filled with rage, as if she wanted to kill him, even more furious than when she mentioned the small stall.

"Cough cough..."

Osamu Shiraishi gave an awkward laugh:

"It's my fault, it's my fault. I'll never bring you to a place like this again, then you won't encounter this kind of thing. What do you think?"

"Not very good!"

Yukiko tightened her coat and said in a calm and unhurried tone:

"I'll let it go this time, but you can't do it again next time. I don't have time to play dumb with you."

"Hehe! Definitely, definitely..."

Shiraishi felt a little guilty and stepped forward to hug her, but out of the corner of his eye he saw three girls in the shop next door. He was so startled that he almost jumped and quickly took a step back.

Seeing his expression, Yukiko glanced curiously at the shop next door and was startled, but quickly regained her composure and glared fiercely at Shiraishi Osamu.

fine……

It's not a big problem...

The three girls were completely unaware that the two adults outside were talking to the female shop owner, seemingly confirming something.

Soon, the three girls showed excited expressions, and the female shop owner also breathed a sigh of relief, smiling as she walked towards her counter.

Osamu Shiraishi and Yukiko exchanged a glance and whispered to each other:

"Should we go in, or stay away?"

"We haven't done anything wrong, why should we be afraid of these three kids?"

Yukiko gave him a strange look, tightened her coat, and walked into the store naturally.

Shiraishi Osamu nodded, agreeing with what he said, and walked in with a relaxed expression.

Chapter 0271: Kazuha's Plucking Words

"Yes, yes, this is it, this is my wallet."

Kazuha looked at the wallet in her hand, a relieved expression on her face.

Although it was just an ordinary wallet, some of the things inside were quite meaningful to her, and it's wonderful that they've been found.

The proprietress smiled and said, "I'm relieved. I knew you'd come here right away to look for your wallet, so it's better not to give it to the police station yet. You seem so happy; this wallet must be very important, right? And it looks like there are a lot of amulets inside."

"Yes. Thank you, ma'am."

Kazuha expressed her sincere gratitude.

Xiao Lan asked in surprise:

"Kazuha, so you were talking about more than one amulet!"

"hey-hey.."

Kazuha gave an embarrassed, slightly bewildered smile, then said with a hint of pride:
