Conan: I really just want to fall in love with Haibara Ai

"You won't be ashamed like him, Otoi-san." Hongzi asked with a smile while leaning against the pool table with her arms folded.

"Although I usually don't like to show off, I'm still very good at this aspect." Hiroshi Otoi said confidently.

"Which aspect?" Hongzi asked, lowering his head and playing with his braid.

……

Is she driving?

"Billiards, billiards." Hiroshi Otoi said helplessly.

"Hey, why was your face full of regret when you looked at me just now?" Koizumi Hongzi turned her head.

"Is there?" Hiroshi Otoi pretended to be curious.

"Your eyes can't fool me, you are regretting that I didn't wear stockings today, right?" Koizumi Hongzi's eyes sparkled.

"So why don't you wear stockings?" Hiroshi Otoi simply followed her routine to see what she was going to do.

"Because I only want to wear my stockings for you to see." Hongzi Koizumi said, staring into his eyes.

"But don't you usually wear it at school?" Otoi Hiroshi avoided her sight.

"Well," Koizumi Hongzi squeezed her right hand into the palm of her left, and put her hands on her lap, "because you are here at school."

"Hongzi." Hiroshi Otoi wanted to say something.

Koizumi Hongzi stretched out her index finger and touched his lips, forbidding him to say the following words.

"Mr. Otoi, a witch has the pride of a witch. I can easily capture the hearts of men all over the world, but I don't care."

"I will definitely capture your heart and let you say 'I really only like Miss Hongzi'."

"Ah..." Hiroshi Otoi lowered his head, "But there is an abyss behind me."

"I will protect you, Otoi-san." Koizumi Hongzi said seriously.

While the two were communicating in low voices, Kuroba Kaito didn't even hit a single shot for a long time.

"Damn it, what the hell is going on!" Hei Yu said angrily.

He raised his head and shouted, "Grandpa Terai, coffee!"

After waiting for a while, there was no reply. He turned his head and saw that Mr. Terai was lying on the bar table, fast asleep.

He didn't have any intention of continuing the fight, so he gave Hiroshi Otoi a look, and went into the bar to make coffee by himself.

Otoi Hiroshi spread his hands, and simply walked to the side and sat down.

"Hongzi, since they don't play anymore, let's play." Aoko Nakamori invited.

"sure."

As a result, after Aoko Nakamori came on the field, he had the same result as Kaito Kuroba.

I didn't hit a shot for half a day.

Hongzi touched her forehead helplessly, she felt a little bit of Otoi Hiroshi's mood just now.

"It's really great." Kaito Kuroba came over with a cup of coffee.

"What!" Aoko Nakamori glared at him, "Are you taking revenge for what you just did?"

"No, I mean this coffee tastes great." Kaito Kuroba took a sip carefully.

"It's you who played worse!" Aoko Nakamori said with puffed cheeks.

"I'm not an expert at billiards," Kaito Kuroba held a cup of coffee in one hand, conjured three billiard balls in succession with the other hand, then hid the billiard balls and conjured a bright rose, "I'm a magician."

"What a magician, I dare to say that without ever winning." Nakamori Aoko poked Kuroba Kaito with his cue.

"So long-winded!" Hei Yu said angrily.

"You kid is so noisy!" the man wearing sunglasses shouted.

Hongzi crossed her hips and walked over to Otoni Hiroshi, who sat there and turned his head, silently looking at that person.

Kuroba Kaito and Nakamori Aoko were also startled by his voice.

The man walked up to Kaito Kuroba with a fierce look on his face, and Aoko Nakamori was so frightened that he quickly hid behind Kaito Kuroba.

"It's been noisy over there since just now, what kind of billiards are you playing?!" the man said arrogantly.

"What did you say?!" Kaito Kuroba had no intention of being afraid of him at all.

As soon as Hiroshi Otoi stood up, he saw Mr. Terai patted the man's shoulder and said, "Sir, please don't make trouble here. This is a place for playing billiards for fun, not for trouble."

"If you want to trouble someone, go elsewhere."

Seeing Terai's appearance, the man hurriedly stepped aside and said angrily, "You, don't think that you can always be so arrogant. The customers are all snatched away by the boss's billiard bar. I think your place is about to close down."

While speaking, he walked out the door.

"So what?" Mr. Terai asked.

"My boss's shop has legendary cue clubs. No one would come to a shop like yours." The man turned his head and mocked.

"Hurry up and get out, you little bastard." Mr. Terai said bluntly.

"Okay, let's go," the man opened the door, "The next time I come here, I will buy you here at a low price."

"Slightly slightly~" Aoko Nakamori stuck out his tongue at him before he left.

"How are you doing, Master Kaito?" Elder Terai asked worriedly.

"Yeah." Kuroba Kuito nodded.

"Master Terai, what is the legendary cue he is talking about?" Hiroshi Otoi came over and asked.

"It's a pair of cue sticks inlaid with countless diamonds and emeralds that only champions deserve - veritable legends." Mr. Terai explained.

"Diamonds and emeralds?" Kaito Kuroba's eyes sparkled.

"If there is a store with that pair of clubs, then Aoko knows about it." Nakamori Aoko said with his hands behind his back.

"It's the American style shop in front of the station, right?" Koizumi Hongzi added.

"That's right, that's it." Aoko Nakamori said.

"Is that so..." Kuroba Kaito sighed.

Otoi Hiroshi noticed that Mr. Terai picked up the cue on one side and went to the rack to put it back.

"I heard that you can't enter if you're not full, and you can't get in if you don't dress up formally." Aoko Nakamori continued.

Grandpa Terai stopped what he was doing and said suddenly: "Billiards are played for fun, and it has nothing to do with age or clothing."

"However, I really want to take a look at such a powerful cue." Kuroba Kaito said curiously.

"Actually, I used to own that pair of clubs." Mr. Terai sighed.

"Hey!" All four of them were taken aback.

"Then why is it gone now?" Otoi Hiroshi asked.

Grandpa Terai stood there blankly as if recalling the past, and then said with regret in his tone: "Because I used that pair of clubs as a bet to compete with others, and I lost in the end."

"That happened a long time ago, before I knew the young master's father..."

"At that time, I made a lot of dishonorable money by gambling with others."

"Gambling?" Kaito Kuroba asked curiously.

Mr. Terai nodded and said: "Nowadays, billiards is an enjoyable entertainment, but in the past it was considered a form of gambling. Back then, I was alone, with my hands in my pockets, and I didn't even know what an opponent was."

"Because of this, some people regarded me as a thorn in their side. At that time, a gang hired a substitute player named Renluo Tongjiro, who was a well-known billiards master."

"We were equal, but I made only one mistake."

"From then on, the situation suddenly turned to Lianluo's side, until the end I had no chance to play again."

After he finished speaking, he lowered his head, with unwillingness hidden in his eyes.

"However, old man, you were also a master at that time." Hiroshi Otoi was a little puzzled, "Why did you make a mistake?"

Mr. Terai picked up a small shell powder from the edge of the pool table, and said in a low voice: "The boss of that gang tampered with my shell powder without telling Lian Luo."

"What!" Kaito Kuroba clenched his fists and looked at Mr. Terai, "That must be cheating!"

"A game is a game, and I lost because I didn't notice it. Besides, Lian Luo's skills are also his real skills."

"I can't accept it. Grandpa Terai is always so kind to me, so I'll take it back for you—take back the legendary cue." Kaito Kuroba said with a smile.

"Master Kaito." Mr. Terai stretched out his hand.

"Well, let him try it, he must be so confident." Hiroshi Otoi patted Mr. Terai on the shoulder.

"Shall we go and have a look together then?" Otoi Hiroshi glanced at Hongzi.

"I can't stop you." Hongzi adjusted the backpack strap on his chest.

"Then let's go shopping after lunch!" Aoko Nakamori suddenly said excitedly.

"Why?" Koizumi Hongzi tilted her head.

"You forgot, don't you need formal clothes if you want to go to that store." Aoko Nakamori blinked.

outside the store.

The approaching summer sun is a little harsh.

The warm light shone on Koizumi Hongzi's side face, making her cheeks rosy, making her look extraordinarily charming.

"Wait for me." Otoi Hiroshi ran towards his car.

He took a parasol from the side of the car and locked the door.

Since I want to go shopping, I simply don't drive. After all, there are many inconveniences.

Besides, the shopping mall is not very far from here.

"Here, you and Qingzi will use this." Otoi Hiroshi handed the umbrella to Hongzi.
