Conan: Science Cartoonist Kudo Yuji

"Eh!!!"

Looking at Yuji blankly, those words kept spinning in Sera Masumi's head, unable to come out at all.

"I'm just kidding, it's actually Hiroki. I'm quite embarrassed to disturb their rare father-son reunion."

[The reasoning magician...the magician...]

"What's wrong?" Yuji looked around, noticed the popcorn stall not far away, and walked slowly over.

After running for such a long time, he was already very hungry. Since there was no store yet, the boy put a hundred pounds on the table and started preheating the popcorn machine and the French fryer on the side.

[It must be a coincidence, he probably doesn’t remember. 】

Sera Masumi walked to the popcorn machine with an anxious mood. She saw Yuji also opened the frying pan, lifted a bucket of clean oil from the pavement and poured it into the hot pan, and then put the chips and corn prepared by the store. Li grabbed a handful each and threw them into the two pots.

"Here, let's have some snacks." Yuji put the popcorn in a carton and handed it to Sera Masumi, and also took out his mobile phone and asked everyone to come back for lunch.

"I saw there are ingredients for making sandwiches here. I'm afraid we won't be able to go out to eat today. Let's be careful about it at noon."

The boy's eyes shone as he looked at the iced coffee in the freezer. He opened a can and drank it with satisfaction. He also handed a can to the little Huya girl next to him.

"Well, Kudo-kun, the magician you just mentioned is..."

Sera Masumi doesn't know what she is thinking now. She hopes Yuji still remembers her, but when she thinks about how she pretends to be a boy and uses a false name to act so brazenly in front of people she knows these days, her face can't help but turn red.

[Would he... think I am unfeminine...]

"Oh, I studied magic with my brother for a while, so I sometimes call myself a magician."

Yuuji picked up the fried fries through a strainer, shook them, and then found a box to put them in.

[Sure enough, he doesn’t remember me...]

Although he was worried about being embarrassed in front of Yuji, Sera Maju was still disappointed when he thought that the boy didn't remember him at all.

"By the way! Don't let the fries go up your nose this time."

Looking up suddenly, Sera Masumi found that the boy had already started making a sandwich.

"After all, there's no one trying to make me laugh this time. It's not good for a girl to stick French fries up her nose."

"You! You! You remember me!" Sera Masumi took a few steps back: "When did you remember me?"

"When did I remember...I recognized you the first time I saw you." The machine did not need to be controlled for the time being, and the boy turned around to face Masumi Sera.

"But I couldn't believe it at first. There could really be a girl with such a bad figure."

He thought she was drawn so flat in the anime to highlight her features, but he didn't expect that she was really so flat. It was incredible.

"Obviously your mother has a very good figure, but your daughter..." The young man sighed and shook his head.

"What! One day I will become such a charming person. I don't have to worry about it because of my genes!"

Sera Masumi's face turned redder when the boy she liked said this. After eating the fries in a few times, she squeezed to the boy's side and washed her hands in the paved sink.

Both of them fell silent, but Yuji could still feel that Sera Masumi was peeking at him.

"Ahem, Yuzuki and Kaori should be here soon."

The boy leaned to the side so as not to die ugly when the two girls came up.

"Yuzuki and Kaori, they are both very beautiful..." Sera Masumi lowered her head.

[And he also has a good figure. Does he like girls with good figures?Speaking of which, Kudo Shinichi’s girlfriend also has a great figure. 】

Masumi Sera now begins to regret that she did not take a series of measures to improve her figure before. "Ah, I'm so hungry!" x2
Hugging each other, Kaori and Yuzuki took the lead and walked in front of everyone, smelling the aroma of popcorn, chips and sandwiches.

"Thank you for your hard work, how are you? Are there many bombs over there?"

"There isn't one where we went. It's not a tennis match venue. The prisoner probably doesn't know how to plant a bomb."

Kaori felt that if it were her and she had a clear target to explode, she would not waste bombs to distract attention. After all, Hades Shabala had all his money wasted and he was a poor man.

"Mr. Macuoto, why is your face so red?" Yuzuki, who had always been sensitive, noticed something was wrong. She stepped forward and squeezed in between the two of them, and then hugged the boy's arm.

"It won't be easy for me to cook."

"It doesn't matter, my left hand is Yuji's left hand." Yuzuki didn't care about Sera Masumi's embarrassment at all, and asked Kaori to hug Yuji's right hand.

"After all, everything Yuji's left hand can do, my left hand has also done for you."

"Cough cough cough..."

The boy coughed violently, glared at the girls on both sides, broke away from their embrace, and asked the three of them to sit on the rest seats to one side.

"You two, don't forget lunch."

Looking at the backs of the three people walking away, the young man breathed a sigh of relief.

"You three...could it be..."

Sitting opposite Kaori and Yuzuki, Sera Masumi raised her eyebrows as she recalled what happened just now.

"That's right." Yuzuki held her chin, stuffed Kaori's mouth with popcorn and chips, and dealt with the person in front of her first.

"So you don't have to think too much. We can't have a fourth person joining us. This... miss..."

Noticing that the face of the girl opposite had changed, Yuzuki took out her phone and played a recording of the conversation between Yuji and Masumi Sera just now.

"If Hiroki hadn't listened and sent me the recording of this conversation, none of us would have known you were a girl."

Kaori swallowed the food in her mouth and nodded in agreement.

(Hiroki: What does it mean to not get tired of watching the excitement! The key is not to talk about it today, will he still have a good life tomorrow?)

"Well... now that you all know it, I have nothing to hide." After the girl's identity was exposed, Sera Masumi no longer worried about gains and losses, and strengthened her own thoughts.

"Yes, I am indeed a girl, and... I also like Kudo Yuji..."

[As expected, it’s Yuji’s suitor again! 】

The eyes of the two girls became sharp, but their mouths were still kind: "Yuji is also very popular in school, but with so many love letters, do you know why he only likes us?"

"why?"

"Because we are childhood sweethearts!"

Yuzuki and Kaori said together: "Yuji has no emotional trust in strange women. Only people he has known since childhood can truly have a heart-to-heart relationship."

The girls attributed this to the fact that the Kudo family had seen too many cases of cheating and murder, so Kaori and Yuzuki were surprised when they learned that the strange Akiko had moved into Yuji's house and was entrusted by the boy to be the patriarch.

(Yuji: Actually, it’s because this is an acquaintance from the original work, so I feel relieved.)
"I see, because I have seen too many cases, I feel insecure about girls I don't understand. He is surprisingly cute..."

Sera Masumi pinched her chin: "But... our childhood sweethearts have known each other since childhood. In a sense, we should also count."

"Nani!" x2 (End of this chapter)
