Conan's Science Manga Artist Kudo Yuuji

Chapter 173: Hibiki Eri: Your secret crush is my husband? !

"Mr. Hirasawa died around 9-10 p.m., and before that, he seemed to have had an argument with Mr. Kotomine at the Yamazen Izakaya."

Ms. Kuriyama's phone suddenly rang. She entered the password and opened the inbox. She looked at the new message from Hibiki Eri and compared it with the small notebook that recorded the case.

"Mimishi?"

Conan seemed to remember something when he saw the name of the izakaya on Ms. Kuriyama's notebook, while Xiaolan and Machiko leaned over together.

"This is Mr. Kotomine's ex-wife. After the divorce, she opened a tavern called Mimishi." Ms. Kuriyama zoomed in on the map on her phone, but didn't find it on it: "Teacher Hibiki asked me to look for it, so Xiaolan and you guys have to go home by yourselves later."

"It's okay, we'll go and help find it together, how about it, Xiaolan?"

Conan pulled Xiaolan's clothes and slowly dragged his girlfriend back to his side.

"Then we'll help find her too." Kurosawa Machiko returned to her faceless self. After walking out of Burger King, they walked between Conan and Xiaolan.

Damn! What on earth does that woman from the organization want to do!

Conan, who failed to hold Xiaolan's hand several times, jumped up and down, and finally gave up and followed behind Amuro Toru.

………

Originally, the group was supposed to meet at around 4pm. By the time they found the izakaya called Mimushi, it was already completely dark. Under the dim light of the street lamp, the izakaya transformed from a residential building was immediately seen by the group.

"No wonder it's not on the mobile map, it turns out it's not a shop..."

After Ms. Kuriyama sent a message to Hibiki, she covered her hungry stomach and turned to look at the four people: "Do you want to eat something? We have been looking for three hours?"

"Okay!" x4

Machiko turned to look at Amuro Toru, and in Xiaolan's eyes, she reached out and pulled the sleeve of her "boyfriend": "We should pay for our own share..."

It's great, their relationship is so good...

The girl finally understood how Sonoko felt when she saw her and Shinichi.

Opening the door of the izakaya, the five people smelled the fragrance in the air and sat at the bar with the welcome of the proprietress.

This izakaya is not big, with only six seats in the room. As the ex-husband, Mr. Kotomine had to give his ex-wife a considerable living allowance every month after the divorce. This place is probably just a place for the proprietress to kill time and make a little money after the divorce.

"Please give us five servings of ramen." Miss Kuriyama noticed that Conan's eyes were looking at the oden in the big pot, and changed her words: "No, four servings of ramen and one serving of oden."

"Well, please change to two servings of oden and three servings of ramen." Machiko raised her hand and looked at the oden over there.

The proprietress served everyone a glass of ice water, then threw the dough into the pot and began to prepare the seasoning for the ramen.

"Kurosawa-san also likes oden, and so do Shinichi and Yuji." Xiaolan took a sip of ice water and watched Conan and Machiko's oden being brought over.

"Actually, Shinichi brother is so-so, but Yuji brother likes it. He said that Japanese oden feels like Chinese hot pot, so he buys it when he sees it."

Conan took out a disposable chopstick and put it in his mouth, deciding to eat the snack with two small octopuses on a bamboo skewer first.

"Brother Yuji would often sneak to Chinese restaurants to eat alone..."

"Indeed, although Mr. Kudo likes to eat, he never asks us to eat with him." Toru Amuro glanced at Machiko, watching her put the small octopus with some yellow mustard into her mouth, and her cheeks swelled up as she ate.

"Conan, didn't you transfer here not long ago?" Miss Kuriyama took the ramen brought by the boss lady and pulled out her chopsticks.

In such a short time, has Kudo Yuji gone to Chinese restaurants so frequently?

"Ah, I heard from Xiaolan, right?" Conan picked up a small octopus with chopsticks and put it next to Xiaolan's mouth. Seeing her blushing face, he felt particularly cute.

"Yes..."

In the next five minutes, this pair of brothers and sisters who were different surnames in the eyes of others kept repeating the actions of feeding and opening their mouths, which made Miss Kuriyama stunned.

"Well, if Xiaolan likes to eat oden, she can order one directly..."

It seems that Conan only ate a small octopus from beginning to end, right?

"Does Xiaolan like to eat oden?"

The door of the izakaya was opened, and Eri Kisaki, who was tidying her hair, walked in with a handbag. She looked at Conan and her daughter who were bowing their heads and not saying anything, and asked curiously: "When did it happen?"

"No, Mom. It's just that this little octopus is delicious." Xiaolan raised her head and looked at the proprietress: "What is its name?"

"Rice octopus, this is my family's original creation." The proprietress used long chopsticks to pick up one for each person: "This is a free one."

Eri Kisaki sat on the empty chair and glanced at the blonde beauty and Toru Amuro beside her. She did not eat the free snacks, but took out her notebook and looked at the proprietress sitting at the bar.

"Ms. Miki, actually I am the defense lawyer of your ex-husband. He is now involved in a murder case. I have something to ask you."

Miki shuddered, she looked at Eri Kisaki calmly, turned around and turned on the faucet of the sink, and slowly washed the dishes inside.

"I only knew how to drink. I have long forgotten about that person." Ms. Miki wiped the wet cup with a towel, turned around and put the cup on the shelf at the back.

Hiki Eri sensed Miki's resistance to her and tried to soften her tone: "I know a little about the details of your divorce. But Ms. Miki..."

"It's your fault that Shirou died. Why wasn't you the one who died..."

Miki had a painful expression on her face, as if she remembered an enemy: "He would say such things whenever he got drunk, so I don't want to think about him at all now."

Is that so? Her husband is also a drunkard. Hiki Eri already understood the boss lady a little, but as a lawyer, she still bit the bullet and continued to ask.

"The construction site where Mr. Hirasawa died is about ten minutes away from here. It seems very close."

Machiko listened silently. Although she did not object to the police's judgment, she was more suspicious of Ms. Miki, who connected the whole incident into a line.

"Sorry." Ms. Miki was already getting impatient. She looked at the clock on the wall, took the cup down again, and wiped it with a towel again.

I just washed the cup, but I took it down to wash it again...

"Is there someone coming?" Conan noticed this while holding the octopus in his hand.

To everyone's surprise, Mimushi showed a very girlish expression on her face. She nodded, took out the small dishes wrapped in plastic wrap from the refrigerator, and began to prepare.

"Actually, there is a gentleman who comes to my place every week to drink some wine after my divorce."

Ms. Mimu looked at her table, sitting on a chair inside the bar and counting the clock, a little impatient.

"Is it... your new boyfriend after the divorce?" Hibiki Eri noticed that Mimushi suddenly turned to the door in surprise, but she was sitting on the far right and was blocked by the five people on the left, so she couldn't see the figure on the sliding door at all.

Mimush walked out of the bar, took the initiative to greet the door in the surprised eyes of the six people, and opened the door.

"You are here, Mr. Maori!"
