Ke Xuezhuo's son-in-law

Chapter 25 Do you know Tsukamoto Sumi?

Going to the site to investigate, you know it must be boring just thinking about it.

Fujiwara remembered that before he came into contact with Conan, Mouri Kogoro took on small cases that were not on the table. Although he occasionally encountered larger cases,...

No, Fujiwara realized something was wrong. He clearly remembered that the day after Conan arrived, Okino Yoko came to him and asked him to investigate the people who were following him. This shows that Mouri Kogoro was okay to a certain extent before, and even It is said that he is famous, otherwise the rich man's daughter in the first episode would not have been looking for Mouri Kogoro immediately when he disappeared.

However, there is a very fatal problem that Kogoro Mouri has almost no reasoning ability. His performance in Conan can be called inferior.

But in this case, how did he gain such fame before meeting Conan that a popular idol came specifically to find him?
  Although he also knew that traveling through comics would be like this, what made him curious was who made it happen.

Is it...

Fujiwara felt confused about this, and what followed was an inexplicable sense of desolation...

"Difficult."

He is not eager to learn how to be a detective like Mouri Kogoro said. The purpose of his apprenticeship was also very simple, which was to steal Moori Kogoro's commission in a decent and reasonable manner so as not to bore Xiaolan.

After all, she was someone he really liked. He had fantasized about being next to her instead of the male protagonist countless times, so he cared about Xiaolan's opinion of him.

"It's so hot in this carriage, and there's no air conditioning in the summer."

Hearing the complaints from the people next to him, Fujiwara slowly realized that the heat was unusually hot.

So he planned to go to the next car to buy a drink, so he asked the father and daughter.

"The weather is so hot, I'll treat you to a cold drink to relieve the heat."

Xiaolan has never liked troublesome others, and she also heard from her father that the other party came to study for free, so she didn't want it. However, it was really hot here, and she couldn't stand it and was sweating, so she accepted it after careful consideration. .

"A glass of lemonade."

It’s no secret that lemonade is the cheapest drink anywhere.

"I don't drink." Kogoro, who was reading the newspaper, refused.

"That's fine."

Two glasses of lemonade, one for myself and one for Xiaolan.

"Thank you."

"You're welcome."

As soon as Fujiwara handed the drink and straw to Xiaolan, Maori, who was reading the newspaper, glanced at the drink from the corner of his eye and knew that this apprentice was sensible again.

She put the straw in and took a sip. The refreshing feeling instantly filled Xiaolan's body, which also made her feel spiritually satisfied.

So cool!
  Mouri Kogoro stared at the water glass out of the corner of his eye.

How could he, as an elder, drink that kind of drink with his juniors? However, the weather was really hot. After coming out of the station, the harsh sunlight kept beating on his skin. Moreover, in order to appear formal in front of his client, he wore special clothes. The whole suit.

Even though they said they didn't want it, they still gave it to me. This apprentice was too sensible.

"Oh, thank you."

Mouri Kogoro thought he had a share in it and took the cup from his hand without shame, and looked at the legal newspaper that had just walked away from the station and read it to himself.

"dad……"

At this moment, I felt embarrassed and shy because of my father's behavior.

People who clearly want a drink should just say they want a drink when others ask...

The kind of person Fujiwara hates the most is the kind of person who clearly says he doesn’t want something and then steals it from him later...

As the person who bought the drink, now I can’t drink it myself.

"Tough luck."

Fujiwara felt inexplicable anger at this moment, but he couldn't just get angry and argue with the other party, so he smiled bitterly and turned his head to look out the window, intending to ignore the incident from the scene outside the window.

"How about Mr. Fujiwara drink from me."

Xiaolan hesitated and handed the drink and straw to Fujiwara Hoshimi.

She didn't want to see a situation where she paid for a drink but couldn't drink it. Besides, she also had money with her, so she could buy another bottle.

"It's okay, Miss Xiaolan. Master, he was thirsty waiting for me just now. It's because I didn't think carefully."

"no, I'm fine……"

"It's okay, it's okay..." Regardless of Fujiwara's obstruction, Xiaolan went to buy a bottle and brought it back.

Fujiwara Xinghai looked at the straw that Xiaolan had bitten in his hand and fell into deep thought.

When she thought about Xiaolan drinking from this straw, should she just drink it as if she didn't realize it, or should she wipe it before using it?

It’s not that I dislike Xiaolan, it’s just that I think it’s like two people sharing a straw…

On the way back from buying the drinks, Xiaolan thought about straws and brought a straw specially for Fujiwara.

"I'll give this to you."

"Oh, thank you."

Fujiwara took the straw and replaced it with the original one, but at the same time lamented that the opportunity for indirect kissing was gone.

The two of them were not talking while drinking drinks. It was quite awkward for two people who had never exchanged more than ten sentences since they met each other to sit face to face.

Neither of them were talkative types, so they had no choice but to sit there, while Xiaolan looked at Kogoro Mouri with his legs on the corridor with his peripheral vision.

Fujiwara knew that this was one of the few opportunities to strike up a conversation with Xiaolan, so he bit his straw and desperately searched for a topic.

"Is Miss Xiaolan a student of Di Dan?"

"Ah."

……

"Will there be a lot of homework every day?"

"Fortunately, I can still finish it easily as long as I put my mind to it."

……

"What's your age rank?"

"About 23."

……

"How many gym classes are there a week?"

"twice."

……

"Is there a girl named Tsukamoto Sumi in Teidan High School?"

He remembered that a certain wizard's girlfriend was named Tsukamoto Sumi.

"Mr. Fujiwara knows Tsukamoto-senpai?" Xiaolan was very surprised after hearing this. After all, Tsukamoto Sumi was her senior in the women's karate club and the main leader in the previous term.

"No, but I should know his boyfriend."

"Boyfriend? Does Sister Shumei have a boyfriend?"

Xiaolan had never heard of this matter, and when Fujiwara brought it up, her gossip aroused.

"No? Oh, maybe I remembered it wrong."

"Oh."

Xiaolan was a little disappointed when she heard the other party's objection. She originally thought she could hear gossip about senior Shumei...

At this moment, Mao Lilan's mind was running at high speed, thinking of the hidden information revealed by the other party. Since he knows about Sister Shumei, he must have been in the karate club, and maybe he is his senior.

"Did Mr. Fujiwara also graduate from Teidan?"

"No, I graduated from Kyoto Senshin High School."

"Kyoto? Is Fujiwara-kun from Kyoto?" Xiaolan heard another piece of information that surprised him.

"No, I'm not from there...

Kyoto, a place that welcomed him but did not fully accept him...

Following Xiaolan's question, Fujiwara briefly talked about his experience in Kyoto, without mentioning a word about the days when he was a son-in-law.
