I, Kudo Shinichi, the rice flower death god

"I also know that person's name is Tomio Iri, right?"

Shinichi said, and without waiting for anyone to ask further questions, he folded the poster on the table up and down, leaving only the middle row.

Among the names of the five main creators originally arranged vertically from left to right, the name of the sixth person suddenly appeared.

"Izuri!"

Mr. Agada had an expression of disbelief on his face when he saw the name of his former friend.

"How could it be! Why is Deri's name..."

"This is the result of discussions between the several of us."

Director Mr. Ma Shan patted his shoulder and said solemnly.

Since the producers were not allowed to change the poster, they had no choice but to use this method to get the sixth friend's name to appear on it.

He himself and An Chi Keiko even changed their stage names so that they could piece together the words Deguri Wei Tomio.

The reason why he didn't tell Agata was because he had the best relationship with Izuri and wanted to treat it as a surprise.

However, things did not develop as they expected.

After the screening of the movie, their friend, the man named Li, chose to commit suicide after not seeing his name.

Not long ago he jumped off the Qingshui stage.

They were all sad for a long time.

The director's explanation cast a sad atmosphere in the room. Xiaolan and others also fell silent, feeling an indescribable discomfort in their hearts.

But Shinichi knew that this matter was not over yet.

If this misunderstanding is allowed to continue, Agata will definitely embark on the path of revenge for his friend.

He chose to reveal the hidden message on the poster at this time just to prevent this from happening.

"Ah~"

After rubbing Xiaolan's head, Shinichi could only sigh.

I hope there will be less Riddler behavior in the future! .

Chapter 4 The black chicken who ran away from home

　　The moon rising over the willow branches heralds the end of the first day of the school trip.

The students, who had vented a lot of energy throughout the day, finally settled down and returned to their rooms to prepare for rest.

Of course, some students who are particularly energetic will choose to engage in other activities during this time.

Just like this in Shinichi's room.

A boy who lived with him and two other boys were engaged in an exciting battle of landlords.

Although they are classmates in the same class, it is well known that Shinichi has never been able to remember other people's names except for a few individuals such as Xiaolan Yuanzi.

The same goes for these three boys.

After saying a simple hello, he returned to his bed and declined the other party's invitation to play together.

However, his indifference failed to dissipate the enthusiasm of these three guys~.

After getting along for a long time, the classmates in the class also know that most of the time, Shinichi is lazy and afraid of trouble.

Putting down the playing cards in their hands, the three people gathered around with stern looks, with a mean smile on their faces.

"Hey! Kudo! Tell the truth, are you and Suzuki in the same situation?!"

In the same classroom, everyone's eyes are sharp.

Recently, they all discovered that the contact between Shinichi and Sonoko has become much closer.

Although they were very close before this, they could still see the changes.

It's probably like the difference between a coat and underwear.

"Yes, just like you thought."

Nodding, Shinichi admitted without hesitation.

He doesn't feel the need to hide anything. Anyway, everyone is young and has a strong ability to accept things.

"Then! How far have you progressed with the two of them?"

After confirming the news, the three of them were so excited that their eyes shone, wanting to know more details.

This is also a normal reaction for boys of their age.

"Hehe, guess what?"

With a slight smile, Shinichi lay down on the bed, covered himself with a quilt, and closed his eyes, as if the topic was over.

"(ˉ▽￣~)cut~"

This made the three of them quite unhappy. It felt as if they were about to reach the top, but were pulled down abruptly.

But they also know when enough is enough.

Seeing that Shinichi had no intention of continuing to chat, the three of them packed up their poker cards and ended the day.

Tomorrow's free activities will require them to recharge their batteries!

……

The next morning, it was another sunny day.

After a night's rest, the students on the school trip gathered on the dining floor of the hotel, enjoying the free breakfast while discussing where to go today.

Some were so impatient that they didn't even eat breakfast and ran out in groups.

The unfamiliar environment around them filled everyone's hearts with the desire to explore. They only had one day to move, and they just wanted to seize every minute.

"Where are we going next?"

Xiaolan bit her spoon gently, her cheeks flushed slightly.

She discovered that early this morning, Sonoko, who slept with her, was nowhere to be seen, and a small group of Sera Masumi also did not come to have breakfast together.

This is clearly someone's work.

Thinking of what Shinichi said last night, although she felt a little sorry for her best friend, she was still looking forward to today's trip.

"Let's find an izakaya first~"

"Izakaya?"

Facing Shinichi's answer, two question marks appeared on the little angel's head.

Before going to bed last night, she imagined many places, including Arashiyama, Fushimi Inari Shrine, Kinkakuji Temple... all very famous classics in Kyoto.

You may not have enough time to visit them all in one day, but it’s always a good idea to be extra prepared.

But in all the expectations, even the place for lunch definitely did not include the existence of an izakaya.

After all, both of them were minors and not yet old enough to drink.

"Yes, Izakaya~"

In fact, Shinichi also wanted to start his plan early.

In order to make the girl Sonoko calm down, he specially found a job for her, asking her to stare at the film composer Mr. Agada whom he met last night with Masumi Sera.

Although the misunderstanding between them was resolved, the still beating death halo told Shinichi that this matter may not be completely resolved.

At the same time, Shinichi did not forget to ask Officer Memu to lead someone to stay nearby in case of emergency.

But a phone call from Osaka in the morning forced him to postpone his plans for a while.

· 0 flowers

The caller was Hattori Heiji's mother, Hattori Shizuka.

Since the last time he followed Shinichi to Kyoto to solve a case, Osaka Black Chicken has not gone home and only made one phone call to report that he was safe.

The two parents of the Hattori family were very angry at their unsatisfactory son's behavior, which was similar to running away from home.

However, Hattori Hirzo and Hattori Shizuka both had their own things to do and had no time to go to Kyoto.

I happened to know from Kazuha that Shinichi's school trip was also in Kyoto, so I wanted to ask him to help him check it out.

Whether I can persuade him to go home is another matter. The main reason is to understand why Hattori Heiji ran away from home.

"Huh? This is actually happening?"

. 0 0

After listening to Xinyi's description, Xiaolan couldn't help but feel a little curious.

After breakfast, the two took a taxi and found the address of the izakaya.

By the way, this address was not informed by Hattori Heiji on his own initiative, but was confirmed by Hattori Heizou through signal positioning after he learned that his eldest son had run away from home.

After getting off the car, what appeared in front of Shinichi and Xiaolan was a shop called Sakuraya.

Outside the shop is a river, and a row of tall cherry blossom trees stands on the opposite bank of the river.

可惜在这个时节，树上的花瓣已经凋谢的七七八八，只能依稀感受到其盛?,5',"7;..备"用!群.::8,?,5;:!０.'2?.9.6"5:'0,１开时的美景。

"Is it here?"

Looking at the izakaya in front of her, Xiaolan tugged at the corner of Shinichi's clothes, with a slightly nervous look on her face.

She was afraid that Hattori Heiji had actually been kidnapped and was unable to return home.

"That should be right, let's go in!"

Gently holding the girl's cattails, Shinichi said softly.

In principle, people under the age of 20 are prohibited from entering izakayas in Sakura Country.

However, there are exceptions to everything, and if it's brought by an adult, it doesn't matter as long as you don't order alcoholic drinks.

What's more, Xinyi and Xiaolan are here to find someone.

Although they were wearing school uniforms, the waitress at the izakaya did not stop them after knowing their purpose.
