Conan: I want to live a leisurely life with Xiaoai

Chapter 28 Xiao Ai's Doubt

Conan at the side saw the two so close, and felt like there was dog food in his mouth, but he still had the cheek to come to Qianming's side.

Seeing someone coming, Xiao Ai quickly let go of Qian Ming's hand, put it behind her, and looked to the other side with a blushing face.

Conan asked Xiang Qianming with a speechless expression.

"Hey, Ming... Did you see that Natsume Soseki remembered something?"

"Oh~ Yes, I think this painting seems to be Natsume Soseki on the thousand yen..."

Although Qian Ming still had a constant smile on his face, Conan gritted his teeth and said lightly in his heart.

Do you still want to let your brother get love! ?

I only held hands for 31 seconds and you came to interrupt the time I was holding hands with Xiao Ai?
Do you want to court death! ?
"One thousand yen... Could it be that someone kidnapped the client's brother and wanted him to use his painting skills to make counterfeit bills!?

But according to the current clues, I can't find it at all...

Ming, do you know of a place near here that prints counterfeit money?And how do we catch them then? "

Conan didn't notice Qianming's dissatisfaction at all, but lowered his head and touched his chin to think about the above questions. When Conan said the last sentence, he looked up at Qianming and asked.

Xiao Ai on the side looked at Conan in surprise. The majestic Sherlock Holmes of the Heisei era, Kudo Shinichi, would ask Xiao Ming for his opinion?
Is there something special about him?

Xiao Ai felt that she was becoming more and more unable to see through Qian Ming, a child.

But Qian Ming's current state is that of a child, and he is not in the mood to take care of this case at all, he said as if nothing had happened.

"Hmm... I don't know anymore!"

"Sure enough... Now I can only look for clues nearby..."

Conan rubbed his hair thinking about this question and said lightly.

"Then let's go now!"

"Oh!"

The detective team raised their voices and shouted behind Conan.

... 8.18 ...

The time has come to the evening.

Conan led the detective team to run around looking for the place where the client's brother would appear.

On the way, Qian Ming followed Xiao Ai all the time, maintaining the same running speed as her. Xiao Ai, who could only stay in the laboratory before, could not run for too long with her physical strength, not to mention that her body was already weakened. He is a child now, and his physical strength is not as good as before, so Qian Ming is worried that Xiao Ai will lose his strength and fall to the ground.

Sure enough, just halfway through the run, Xiao Ai had an obvious shortness of breath expression on her face. Although her face was expressionless, Qian Ming could feel that Xiao Ai was beginning to get tired.

Qian Ming also looked at everyone, and they gradually began to show signs of exhaustion. Only Conan was troubled by not being able to find any clues. Qian Ming saw a nearby convenience store out of the corner of his eye, and he shouted at Conan: "Conan, the Boy Detectives are all gone now. Tired, let's go to the convenience store to buy something to drink and take a rest!"

Conan also looked at the detective team and nodded to show that he knew. When the detective team heard that they could finally rest, they hurried to the convenience store that Qianming saw just now.

After the detective team entered, they quickly searched for themselves to drink water, and Conan did the same. Qian Ming and Xiao Ai were still in place, and Qian Ming took the opportunity to come to Xiao Ai and asked her quietly: "Student Huiyuan, what do you want to drink?" I ask you!"

"...No, I'm not thirsty yet."

"You lied, your lips have started to crack, which means you are really thirsty, but you just said not to drink, you are violating my duty by doing this, I picked you up, so you still have to Listen to me, tell me what do you want to drink?
Otherwise, I will let you cook for me for the rest of my life as punishment! "

"...Understood, can I drink orange juice?"

Xiao Ai turned her flushed face to the other side, curled her lips and said calmly.

Qian Ming caressed Xiao Ai's hair again, and said with a smile.

"Then wait for me here, I'll be back soon!"

After finishing speaking, she ran in, and Xiao Ai froze in place, touching the hair that Qian Ming touched just now, then looked at Qian Ming who had disappeared, and smiled faintly.

"Looks like... being a kid is pretty cool too!
Sister... will you live well in that world? "

As Xiao Ai spoke, she looked up at the blue sky and white clouds with nostalgia, as if Mingmei was really looking at her from the sky.

Not long after, Qian Ming returned to Xiao Ai with two bottles of orange juice.

But Qian Ming kept looking at Xiao Ai while running, and didn't notice the pile of rubble on the ground at all.

Sure enough, Qian Ming took a step forward and slipped on the gravel pile. His body began to fall forward, but with the sense of balance he had practiced for many years, he would never fall.

With his eyes fixed, he kicked up with the other foot, his body began to flip forward once, and finally landed on the ground firmly with two bottles of orange juice.

"Haihara-san, this is yours!"

Qian Ming still had the same smile on his face, and he stuffed the orange juice into Xiao Ai's hand, but Xiao Ai's face was filled with horror. Qian Ming's movements just now seemed like a cat, and he could quickly react to let his body stand on the ground steadily and safely superior!

"Xiao Ming... the action just now, how did you do it..."

"Ming! There is a big event!"

Conan waved his hand suddenly to greet Qian Ming, Xiao Ai saw that her words were interrupted and had to ask later, she went to Conan's side, Qian Ming also followed Xiao Ai to Conan's side and asked.

"What big event do you want to talk about?"

"Just now a man in a dark blue hat took a [-]-yen bill and only bought a pack of cigarettes. Then I checked the [-]-yen bill. It turned out to be a counterfeit bill. I'm basically Be sure to follow that person and you will be able to find the client's brother!
So let's go to the police as soon as possible, then follow that person and arrest those who made me smaller! "

"Make you smaller? What are you talking about?"

Qian Ming tilted his head, looked at Conan suspiciously and said.

"Uh... ah ha ha ha! I want to make you smaller, magic magic!"

Conan turned his head and saw the detective team behind him. They looked at Conan with strange eyes, and saw that Conan suddenly changed his style of painting and became a child who likes magical girls. He waved his finger and said to Qianming.

The detective team saw Conan's appearance, and immediately looked at Conan with disgusted eyes.

"Conan...don't be so naive, okay?" Genta said.

"Yeah, yeah! It's weird for you to do this!" Mitsuhiko.

"Conan, don't watch those weird shows... you should watch Kamen Rider with us!" Ayumi said.

What is going on with this 'experiment'?

Did he say it on purpose for Qian Ming?

Could it be that Qian Ming knows the true identity of the experimental product! ?

But Xiao Ming's bewildered expression just now...it doesn't look like he knows the identity of the experimental product at all.

Or did the experimental product accidentally say it to the ignorant Xiao Ming?
Xiao Ai on the side glanced at Conan and turned to look at Qian Ming and stared at him straight. She felt that the most puzzling question now was Qian Ming. She always felt that Qian Ming knew all the truth, but he was like an ignorant child...

It's really hard to understand Xiao Ming...

Seeing that other people didn't care about the topic just now, Conan was glad that he finally concealed it, and then turned to look at Qian Ming, who suddenly clenched his right fist and lightly tapped the palm of his left hand, and said indifferently.

"However, hearing what you said, I suddenly remembered that there seems to be a newspaper office next to the police in front of Otoma Station called the Otoma News Agency, and there is a new printing press in that office.

There may be a big gang group there..."

"That's it! Ming, you're a genius!"

Conan knew all the truth as if enlightened, he quickly praised Qian Ming as a genius, and then took the detective team to Otoma Station.

On the way, Xiao Ai stopped observing Conan's experimental product, shifted the object of observation to Qian Ming, and began to investigate his suspiciousness.

Looking at Qian Ming with sharp eyes, she suspected that Qian Ming might have eaten the APTX4869 she made just like them, but Qian Ming behaved like a smart child in front of her, completely unable to see his abnormality.

With this question in mind, Xiao Ai followed the detective team to the Dadujian News Agency.
