Conan: The Mechanic

After taking a closer look at the man's image, Shiho dispelled his dissatisfaction and asked in a somewhat curious tone. "can I help you?"

Originally, Hotaru was planning to say something to drive away such a well-meaning man, but she stopped when she heard Shibao say this question.

"That..." The young man seemed a little nervous, and after hesitating for a while, he said a little shyly. "This lady, please... Do you have time now and after the update? If so... I hope you can appreciate your face and taste the delicious food here with me - of course, it's my treat!"

"Uh..." Shibao showed a somewhat awkward expression—although she probably guessed the other person's intention when they came here, but she would actually be so awkward...

Staring at the young man, Shiho calmly smoothed the small piece of sand that was covered by his body with his hands, and made a thoughtful expression. After a few seconds, she showed a faint smile and nodded. "Well, I just want to eat it anyway. I'm not very good at flirting with couples when I'm single... Let's taste the food here with you for the time being."

Having said that, she stood up, and after exchanging a wink with Fujiwara, she motioned for the youth to lead the way. "By the way, what's your name?"

"Moshihiko Michiwaki," the young man made a very sunny smile at Shiho. "Currently studying at Rice University."

Miyano Shiho responded with a smile on his face, echoing the youth's expression.

…

After three hours, it was already dark.

"Hey, are you actually a coroner?" Masahiko Michiwaki, who had already had a cigarette in his mouth, showed a very exaggerated expression of surprise. "And... you're still from Tokyo? It's true! I think you're very young, and you don't look like someone who has worked!"

Originally, they just came out to taste some delicious meals, but after about an hour of eating, Michiwaki Masahiko invited Shiho to a nearby open-air restaurant for another dinner. Shiho naturally had no intention of rejecting his dinner. .

"According to my age, I just graduated from high school." Shiho seemed to have completely let go of all his guards and drank a small glass of sake from his own glass. "But... I read faster and my brain is smarter, so I was sent by the professor to do some things to gain experience."

"So," Masahiko Michiwaki glanced at the others nearby, and after confirming that they were not being noticed by others, he lowered his voice slightly and asked. "Are you here this time because of a case?"

"Yes," Shiho nodded. "It's the tourist who suffocated here a few days ago—well, we didn't need us to come from Tokyo for this kind of thing, but..."

Speaking of which, Shiho stared at Michiwaki Masahiko's face. "I didn't notice it before... Your eyes are really beautiful, like a vortex, with a magical power that makes people addicted."

"Ah... Maybe..." Masahiko Michiwaki's expression was a little tangled. "But... ah, of course I'm very happy that you think I'm good looking, but did you come here to find something wrong with that tourist?"

"Why are you so curious about these things!" Shiho pouted slightly, intrigued by Masahiko Michiwaki's appetite. "The point now shouldn't be to make me have a good time! Why are you... always acting like a weirdo, asking about these boring things!"

"Ah...Yes, yes," Masahiko Michiwaki also seemed to realize that he had lost his way, and smiled bitterly to Miyano Shibao. "I'm sorry I'm sorry, you are so cute, but I focus on these unimportant things..."

"Humph!" Shiho's expression improved a little. "This is the attitude of accompanying a girl! What was it like before you?"

In this way, Masahiko Michiwaki accompanied Miyano Shiho to continue drinking, telling jokes from time to time, and finally coaxing Shiho's face into a cloudy mood.

"Okay, okay," Shiho, who seemed to be a little drunk, looked at Masahiko Michiwaki with a playful expression, and waved his hand with a light smile. "Look at the way you're flattering me so carefully now, it's like trying to coax your mother, just for a child who can watch TV!"

Leaning forward slightly, Shiho's smile became even more charming.

"Then, I will also give you a little reward, and tell you all the stories you want to know!

"What you want to hear is what we investigated about the deceased, right?"

"Yes, yes!" Masahiko Michiwaki's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked in a more pleasing tone. "My little princess, I'm dying of curiosity, so tell me more! I won't tell anyone anyway, let me know what you forensics workers think about when they work!"

"Hmm..." Shibao nodded. "Anyway... To be honest, although there is no evidence, we suspect that this thing may be related to extremist groups. By the way, don't tell others, we found a small piece of paper hidden deep in the deceased's bag. Article, he said a lot of things in it, there are a lot of inside information and so on, it's quite scary... If the things said above are true, then we can really turn our attention to a special group …”

"Really?" Masahiko Michiwaki quickly lowered his voice and asked. "Which small group?"

"I can't say..." When it came to naming names, Shiho suddenly became reserved again, and just shook his head slightly. "I put this note in my backpack in my room, and I will rush back to Tokyo tomorrow morning and give it to my boss... I can only tell you that we now have clear evidence that this case and a certain an extremist religious group."

Michiwaki Masahiko showed an expression of extreme surprise because he heard something novel, and at the same time he used his elbow to put his elbow on the corner of the table and hide his hand under the table, and began to tap quickly Hands on the keys of the phone.

"Well, since I've said so much," Shiho didn't seem to notice Michiwaki Masahiko's small movements, but turned to a very ambiguous topic. "So...you tell your story too, I...want to hear about your ex-girlfriend—you should have, right?

"I think, based on your personality, she probably did something very outrageous... So, I want to know more about the things you don't like, and take precautions in the future."

Lonely men and women, accompanied by dim lights and wine for dinner, continued, pushing the topic in the direction that both parties were looking forward to.

Of course, in any case, a meal is not enough time, but everyone is in no hurry - they all know what their purpose is and they all know that the most important virtue is to be patient.

……

An hour and a half later, it was already dark.

"Then, that's it." Standing at the door of his room, Shiho nodded vaguely. "Thank... Thank you for being willing to send me back."

"You used to live in this room?" Masahiko Michiwaki glanced at the room number, and then turned his gaze back to Shiho, who was leaning against the door and was somewhat confused. "Then... Since you're so tired, I won't bother you anymore?"

"Hmm," Shiho looked rather sleepy. "Then...that's it. Anyway...I gave you my mobile phone number. Although I will be leaving in the early morning tomorrow,...in the future, I can still use my mobile phone to make calls and send text messages, so...it doesn't matter. Good night."

Saying this, Shibao looked at Masahiko Michiwaki with an affectionate expression, and closed the door gently.
