Conan: I am really a good person

Chapter 64 Couple Bracelets

Mao Lilan: "What?"

Suzuki Sonoko's voice came from the phone that had been quiet, "Why is this kid so hostile to Mr. Future?"

She was suspicious, "There's something wrong."

"Humph, you really deserve a beating, almost as good as that famous detective who deserves a beating!"

After a few more pauses, he said, "I think I saw you. My car is in front of yours."

The venue for the dinner is in a high-end residential area. There are usually various private cars nearby, and taxis are rarely seen.

Mao Lilan looked forward and saw a taxi stopping in front of the villa in the distance. A slender figure with short hair got out of the car, "Hey, I saw you too."

Suzuki Sonoko did not answer.

The figure in front of the villa door shook a few times. As the taxi approached, Mao Lilan found a young man standing in front of the door.

It's a future.

His unhurried voice came vaguely from the phone, "Happy Valentine's Day, this is a gift."

Then came Suzuki Sonoko's somewhat stumbling voice, "A gift?"

Huh?
The taxi got closer to the villa. Conan leaned against the window and looked at the absolutely mysterious figure with extra caution: he looked very young, about 23 or [-] years old. He was indeed the target of Suzuki Sonoko. He was indeed quite handsome, with black hair. She has red eyes and a little fluffy hair, which makes her a little messy.

He seemed to have a good temper and was handing Suzuki Sonoko a palm-sized black velvet box with a smile, which should be a 'bracelet'.

... Something is wrong, very wrong.

After they actually met and confirmed that "Mr. Future is indeed handsome," Conan frowned even more and actually gave him a gift. Isn't it an interesting performance?He is actually interested in Suzuki Sonoko, there is definitely something wrong!
He looked more carefully at every detail of Ichijo Mirai's relationship with Suzuki Sonoko, trying to find out what was wrong.

Ichijo Mirai noticed the sight, controlled his gaze and looked sideways gently. He smiled and raised his eyebrows, took a few steps forward and opened the door of the taxi, "Please come separately, please. Happy Valentine's Day, Miss Mori."

He handed over a black box to Mao Lilan again and said easily: "A gift for Valentine's Day."

He took a few steps back and added: "It's a pair."

"Although it's a commission, today is Valentine's Day after all, so I prepared two gifts," Ichimi Mirai added again, "They are couple bracelets."

"Happy Valentine's Day."

Suzuki Sonoko: "?"

Mao Lilan: "??"

Conan: "???"

Suzuki Sonoko, who was already blushing and shy after receiving the gift, was at a loss for a moment. She subconsciously opened the box and used her index finger to draw out a silver bracelet: the silver bracelet was thin, with a half-heart-shaped pendant. The chain and bright diamonds were all shining in the sun. Shining underneath.

Mao Lilan also subconsciously opened the box and took out a silver bracelet: the chain was thin and had the other half of a heart-shaped diamond bracelet.

The two diamond bracelet pendants merge into one to form a heart with a snake wrapped around the forbidden fruit.

It’s a very beautiful design, just right to give out on Valentine’s Day to express your love, but: “???”

Mirai Ichijo: "What's wrong?"

He was still smiling, and seemed to have a good temper, and he still had the innocence of a foreigner, "I just came to Neon, and I don't know much about some customs. Isn't it allowed to give gifts to people of the opposite sex in a normal relationship on Valentine's Day?"

"Sorry, please forgive my rudeness."

You can give gifts.

But if you give it to two people, they are still friends, and the gift is a couple's gift. This...

This is not ambiguous at all. It is a polite way of saying that I am only here for the commission.

Conan, who was originally extra vigilant, instantly let down his guard: Okay, it's not that a handsome guy is interested in Suzuki Sonoko, it's that he's not interested.normal!

"..." Suzuki Sonoko understood and put on the bracelet rather resentfully, "No, it's not rude. I also prepared a gift for you in advance."

She actually didn't pay much attention. After putting on the bracelet, she became happy for a second, "Did Mr. Future arrive early?"

"Well, I have already made a preliminary investigation of the situation in the villa," Mirai Ichichi just talked about business, "There are seven people in total now."

"The three sons are Mrs. Minagawa and Mrs. Minagawa. One of them is about the same age as you. He is the gentleman who invited you to the party. He also invited others, including two male friends of the same age and two female friends of the same age. friend."

"Including the four of us, there are only eight people suitable to participate in the Valentine's Day party, four men and four women."

"——But if I didn't participate, it would be three men and four women."

Some people are alone, which is not in line with normal friendship.

After a brief introduction, Mirai Ichijo added, "There are no suspicious characters."

"I checked the area, and there was no telescope or anything like that nearby."

"When we were at the door just now, there were no other suspicious people watching us." He paused, glanced at Conan, and emphasized, "There are no outsiders."

No outsiders are watching them with scrutiny.

But this little guest who came with Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko...

I don't know why, Ichiyo Miku has a subtle feeling, similar to a cat's claws gently scratching his heart, and the feeling that something is about to break through the restraints and come out.

The watch on his right hand vibrated suddenly.

Ichijo Mirai gathered his thoughts, raised his hand and glanced, and found that it was a reminder that the game had been patched and updated, so he put his hand down again, and asked without any sense of abnormality: "Did you two encounter any suspicious people when you came here? Or? Is it a car traveling more than three streets on the same road?”

The long list of explanations and inquiries is very intimidating, like a professional detective.

Suzuki Sonoko replied obediently: "I didn't pay too much attention, and I didn't feel the feeling of being followed."

Mao Lilan shook his head, "It seems that I didn't meet anyone suspicious."

Conan: "..."

He tried hard to control his expression, listening to them discuss the 'stalker', keeping his ears and nose in check, his nose and heart in mind, and his eyes not squinting.

Ichijo Mirai: "OK."

He also didn't find any suspicious people when he came, and when he deliberately delayed his stay at the door by delivering gifts openly, he didn't notice any surveillance eyes. He had already expected that they didn't find any suspicious people when they came, "Then I Let me take you in first.”

"I actually just arrived about half an hour ago, and I only had a preliminary understanding. I'm a complete stranger like you, so don't be too nervous."

After entering the gate, there is a spacious courtyard and green plants. You have to walk a few more steps to enter the villa.

Ichijo Mirai walked at the front and pushed open the door of the villa.

Suzuki Sonoko held up her skirt and followed quickly, while Mao Lilan was about to fall behind. She vaguely heard the sound of a car, unconsciously turned her head and glanced, and found a private vehicle driving past the villa.

The driver was a man wearing a knitted hat. He looked nothing out of the ordinary. He was just an ordinary person passing by, so she averted her eyes and followed him into the living room.

The living room was already full of people, with a table in the middle and cushions randomly placed around it. They were talking animatedly.

A handsome man in a brown suit took out a cigarette and lit it casually. He turned around and said, "You're here."

"Everyone is here," another burlier man in red cheered up, "then let's start the party, right?"

He gave encouragement, "Today we have people from outside the club, and we are having a Valentine's Day dinner. It is a social gathering. Everyone should behave well, maybe we can start a wonderful relationship."

"Minagawa, you are the president, let me introduce myself first!"
