"So I called my friend, Kadokawa's boss, and asked him to let you continue the serialization after the first book was almost cut in half. At the same time, I also asked Kadokawa to help promote it. It's some selfishness on my part."

"But...that's not..." Kasumigaoka Shiyu finally panicked after hearing this.

If she remembered correctly, her first volume of "Metronome of Love" was almost cut in half, and the one who saved her was obviously Lun Ye.

"What you want to say is that you escaped being cut in half because 'TAKI-kun', who has [-] fans on the Internet, helped you promote it?" Yukiko over there looked as if that was indeed the case.

"Well..." Kasumigaoka Shiyu was scared. She was so afraid of the abyss ahead.

"What can you do with only [-] fans? Your first volume sales exceeded [-]! Do you think all his [-] fans will buy it? You think he saved you, so you fall in love with him, right?"

"..."

"Let me tell you straight away, the reason why your first volume exceeded [-] was because of Kadokawa's vigorous promotion, Xiaochen's promotion at Fusae's store, and recommendations from friends nearby. Maybe you didn't I don’t know Xiaochen’s identity, so let me tell you, Xiaochen has many friends, so many that you can’t even understand them. Of course, I don’t mean the number here.”

"He has a wide range of interpersonal relationships, and it was also because he helped to promote it briefly for Xiaochen's sake. You should have seen it... At that time, many people helped to promote it... Although they don’t have many fans on Twitter, in reality there are many people who will buy because of them..."

"I read your first volume. To be honest... it's very green. It's like a little girl who doesn't understand what love is. She wrote her own desire and hope for love. The second volume is also good. It describes the hesitation of youth, and the ending is like a little girl you have a crush on. I also like it very much. I originally thought that you have met someone you like, so the next volume should be about a relationship that I will like. Enlightenment and refinement.”

"But I saw a love letter...a very young love letter, but well written...I am very optimistic about you, so after I found out your identity from Kadokawa, I started joking with Xiaochen I said that I hope to protect you in the school and hope that you will not be deceived by a scumbag."

"The fourth volume didn't make me feel anything new, except for the 'villain' who seemed to want to imprison the heroine. That's all."

"Why... why are you telling me this?" Kasumigaoka Shiyu's tone was trembling, and there was some nasal sound, she must have been crying...

"Why? I probably want you to understand that the hospital your mother is in is invested by Xiaochen, and your father is a lawyer for a subsidiary of Fusha Painting Company. They both have a good relationship with Xiaochen, so Xiaochen Chen will also take care of you because of their request. I just don’t want the same thing as what happened in the video to happen again.”

"By the way, Xiaochen and I both attended your autograph session, but we both had things to do, so while you were chatting happily with the number one, we left without much time."

"Finally... don't take other people's care for granted."

The words end here.

Looking at the hung up call on the phone, Kasumigaoka Shiyu's whole body was shaking. She hugged her legs tightly and buried her face in them.

Nausea, nausea...all kinds of discomfort overflowed from the bottom of my heart.

When did you fall in love with that man?

Wasn't it because he saved me when I was confused and when the path of the novel was about to be cut off?Isn't it just because of the love for his works at the autograph session?

Just like the suspension bridge effect, once feelings come out, they are irreversible.So I handed the third volume to that person like a love letter, but that person escaped.

Just like a person in a cage, the first person he saw when the cage was broken, but now everything tells him that the cage was broken by another person, and this person just appeared in front of him first. in front of.

This strong contrast made Kasumigaoka Shiyu feel sick to her stomach.Regarding my nausea...

He blindfolded himself and walked forward. It was not clear whether the front was an abyss or a road, but what was clear was that the person who had been secretly supporting him was not the No. 1 he saw when he took off his hijab.

Chapter 33 Christmas and knights are more suitable~

"Now that everyone knows the matter, what are you going to do?" Xiao Ai looked at the content on the screen and looked at Mo Chen who was eating in a good mood.

"What to do? That's it...Aunt Sawamura and Aunt Kasumigaoka both called." Mo Chen shrugged.

In fact, Mo Chen was a little lucky that he had done so many things when he was young.

There were actually several reasons why Mo Chen didn't talk about these things.

First of all, this world is the world of Conan, which means that people will kill people for any reason.If you have a harem and have too many interactions with other women, you may become cold.

Because Mo Chen is a time traveler, he actually has a lot of interactions with women. After all... Mo Chen is the kind of person who won't sit still and wait for death when things happen, but Mo Chen feels that he should still be at the distance of a good friend.

The only one who is relatively close is Xiao Ai who treats her as a family member.

Also, when he was in the second grade of junior high school, in order to avoid seeing two elderly people, Mo Chen took over Fushahui's company affairs and asked two people in their 40s to travel around the world.

"But it's okay, Xiao Mo, you won't be so tired in the future." Dr. A Li on the side showed a smile.Dr. Ali also knew about Mo Chen's stay at school.

However, Mo Chen always had his own opinions, so Dr. A Li did not intervene too much. Dr. A Li actually felt sorry for Mo Chen. After all, he had to deal with the company's affairs and the student union's affairs.

This is the age to have a good relationship and spend a wonderful youth.But it was restricted because of trivial matters.In this case, the student union should also help him, which would make Mo Chen less tired.

"I guess I will be even more tired in the future. After the joint festival of the three schools is over, I will probably resign as president of the student union." Mo Chen's plan will continue. This time the joint festival of the three schools can be said to be Mo Chen's. Chen's hard work, Mo Chen will naturally participate.

After it's over, Mo Chen will probably drop out of school.

'Also...now that I have appeared on the stage, I am waiting for my gorgeous exit.Christmas and knights are more suitable..." Mo Chen sensed the energy of 'Creation Star'.There are more than yesterday, which is really good.

When the time comes for him to retire, he will probably be able to create the next knight.

"It's strange that today is not over yet?" At this moment, Xiao Ai looked at the TV screen and said with a little surprise.

After the TV screen dimmed, a line of white words slowly appeared.

【Friendship and Gambling】

[The screen lit up again, this time it was in an elementary school, Conan was in class. 】

"Pfft..." Many people laughed out loud when they looked at Conan in class.

"The legendary Kamen Rider is still an elementary school student and has to go to school. It's really funny."

"Yes, yes. It's really interesting to be without love."

"But what kind of medicine is that? I want one too. I also want to go back to my childhood."

No matter how people outside the video discuss it.The video continues.

[After class, Conan left school with a hopeless expression on his face. He was accompanied by four classmates, one was Xiao Ai, and the other three were discussing the latest Kamen Rider legend with everyone.Conan quietly asked Xiao Ai next to him: "Haiyuan, have you heard of it when you were in the organization? Have you heard of the name 'Martini'?"]

["Edogawa, I told you that I don't know much. Even when I escaped from the dark organization you mentioned, I didn't know there was such a thing as Gaia memory." But Xiao Ai's face was expressionless. Without changing, he glanced sideways at Conan and said calmly. 】

["Okay, by the way, how is Xiaochen doing lately?" Conan still looked very disappointed and casually changed the subject. 】

["After he stopped going to school, he studied things down there, and sometimes he even went to the company for meetings. What did you want to do with him? Is there something wrong with the instrument?"]

["That's not true, but Xiaochen's body..." Conan was a little worried, but Xiao Ai on the side said calmly: "It's nothing, the situation is fine, I will take care of it." On the street where the two passed by, The news is reporting on a new rocket launched by the Shinomiya Consortium. 】

["Okay then." The conversation ended here. The four of them separated at the intersection. When Conan walked towards the office, two people were already sitting inside. Two middle-aged couples who looked like they were from the countryside. What were they wearing? Very simple.Xiaolan was pouring tea for the two of them.And Philip was sitting far away, reading a book]

["I'm back. Does Sister Xiaolan have any guests?" Conan said hello while observing the two of them. Xiaolan took the tray and nodded and introduced: "They are a couple in heaven. They came to see dad for an announcement. Entrusted.”]

["Uncle's commission..." Conan nodded to express his understanding and then went directly to the third floor. Then he took out his mobile phone, adjusted the bow-tie transformer, and called the phone downstairs. 】

["Hello, I am the famous detective Mouri Kogoro. I heard that you two are asking me to issue a commission, right? What kind of commission is it?" Under Conan's instruction, Xiaolan put the phone away. 】

["Detective Maori..." The two couples looked at each other in confusion. Conan on the other side of the phone pretended to cough and said: "I'm really sorry, I have a case to deal with now, and I can't get home in time, but I’ll ask that brat Kudo to help with the investigation. Don’t worry, we are very professional.”]

["Who is Kudo?" The two couples obviously didn't know much. They looked at Xiaolan on the side with curious eyes. Xiaolan smiled awkwardly and explained: "Shinichi is a detective like my father. Before It has been in newspapers several times, so if you entrust it, of course there will be no problem.”]

["That's it..." The two couples still looked a little hesitant, but finally chose to speak out: "We hope that the Maori detective can help investigate my daughter Tendo Qinghua."]

["Oh? Are you investigating your two daughters? What's wrong with her?" Conan asked seriously on the third floor, taking notes with paper and pen. 】

["It's like this. Our family of three came from a relatively remote countryside. Our daughter Tendo Qinghua is currently studying at a university in Tokyo. She is a college student. Although her family is relatively poor, Qinghua still works very hard. But three days ago, Qinghua suddenly sent us money, about 500 million yen."]

Chapter 34 Million Casino?

["500 million?" Conan on the other side of the phone was also very surprised, then coughed slightly and said, "Is that so? Did Miss Paradise tell you how it came about?"]

["This is why we entrusted the Maori detective." The two elders said very worriedly: "We also called Qinghua to ask, but Qinghua hung up the phone impatiently and just said I won it myself.”]

["Won it?" Conan was also a little surprised, but then asked: "Does your daughter play games like horse racing?"]

["No, we have taught Qinghua since she was a child and not allowed her to touch these things. But where did the money come from? We asked Qinghua but she refused to tell us, so I want to entrust Detective Maori to help us find out, Qinghua How did Hua get so much money, and...her personality has changed a lot..."]

["...I understand. We will take care of this entrustment. You two can give your phone number to Xiaolan. We will explain it to you as soon as we have detailed information. Please leave it with you at the same time. Miss Paradise’s university, do you have the location of your address?”]

[Hang up the phone, Conan stretched and walked down from the third floor. Just in time, the couple in Tiantian left the office, their faces full of worry.After watching the two people leaving, Conan opened the door and entered the detective office on the second floor. 】

["Conan, I just had a commission." Xiaolan didn't know that the call just now was made by Conan, so she waved to Conan. Although she knew that Conan was Shinichi, Conan also asked Xiaolan to call himself. conan. 】

["Well, I heard it upstairs." Conan nodded and said: "But it probably has nothing to do with the dopant. Of course I will check it out."]

[While talking, Conan walked to the information left by the two couples and was slightly surprised when he saw the name of the university above: "Is she actually a student of Ming University?" Xiaolan asked curiously: "Does Conan know her?" 】

["No, I don't know them, but I know some people from their school. Xiaolan, I'm going to investigate first. I'll be back before dinner." After Conan left these words, he took his skateboard and left. .Looking at Xiaolan, she was a little dissatisfied: "Really...can't we go after dinner?"]

["As long as Conan starts investigating a case, of course he will focus on the case." Phillip replied casually, which made Xiaolan feel helpless and said: "That's right... He has always been like this. Why does Phillip eat sukiyaki at night?" Sample?"】

["Sukiyaki?" After hearing Xiaolan's words, Phillip finally looked up and walked up to Xiaolan with a surprised look on his face: "What is Sukiyaki? Is it edible? There are several ways to make it..." 】

["Huh?" Xiaolan was a little embarrassed looking at Phillip who was asking her questions. It seemed that she had said something to interest Phillip. 】

[On this side, after Conan left the detective agency, he went to the back door of a family restaurant called 'Vagonaria'.There was a young man with short blue hair and narrow eyes wearing a chef's uniform sitting outside on the phone.When he saw Conan coming, he was a little surprised and said: "Oh, I haven't seen you for several days, Conan-kun."]

["Yes, long time no see, Mr. Souma." Conan looked like he was looking for this person and stopped his skateboard in front of him. : "I have something to ask you."]

["Oh my god...you actually asked me for information. Well, for the sake of your hard work, let me tell you..." the blue-haired young man named Souma laughed. 】

["Is there a person named Tendo Qinghua in your school? I want to know about her."]

["Oh, are you just asking about personal circumstances? I thought Conan-kun you wanted to ask about the 'Million Casino'." Soma smiled slightly after hearing this. 】

["Million Casino?" Conan looked at Soma in front of him with some surprise: "Is there a lot of information recently?"]

["Of course...but if you want information, it's not cheap." Souma narrowed his eyes and smiled, and then said with a smile: "But if you want information about Tendo Qinghua, I'm really here There are..."]

[While talking, Souma pressed his phone a few times and moved it to Conan. He said: "Tian Qinghua, a student of Ming University, is considered an alumnus of mine. She behaves like a rich second-generation daughter in school." The eldest lady is also the president of the 'Outdoor Life Club'. She often goes on driving trips with the people in her club and spends money lavishly."]

["Rich second generation?" Conan pinched the bar and was a little confused. Could it be that he had found the wrong person?But Souma on the side showed a smile: "Of course, although she claims to be the second generation of rich people, her true identity is that she is a child from the countryside. I heard that it was because when she came to the city, she came from the countryside. She was disliked because she was pretending to be a rich second generation before... After all, she worked five jobs."]

["So many? You said it was before?" Conan frowned slightly.The key points in Souma's words are quite accurate. 】

["Well, about a week ago, Tiantang Qinghua stopped working, but even if she didn't work, she still had a lot of money... It makes people feel like she is the second generation of rich people."]

["Why?" Conan looked at Souma in front of him with some confusion, and Souma said, his finger slightly crossed the photo of the gentle and tactful black-haired beauty Tendo Haruka on the phone, and a short video appeared. . 】

[The content of the video is hidden and blurry, but it sounds like a casino-like place. Everyone is having a party, but Conan frowned. Although it only appeared for a moment, Conan saw it... .The marble pillar next to it has reflections on it, which looks like...a monster. 】

["Is this?" Conan frowned and looked at Souma, who put away his phone and said with a slightly serious expression: "This is the 'Million Casino'. This casino is very mysterious, and the information is very well known." Few. What we can know is that Tiantian Qinghua did become rich only after going here. There are also people similar to Tiantian Qinghua, but more of them have lost everything."]

["Do you have the addresses of these people?"]

Chapter 35 Three exclusive information!

["Do you have the addresses of these people?"]

["Of course there is..." Soma said and sent a few messages to Conan's mobile phone: "By the way, remember to tell me any information when the time comes."]

["I understand, by the way... This is what Xiaochen asked me to deliver last time when I had time." Conan looked at the addresses in the phone and nodded. Then he thought of something and took out an envelope from his arms and handed it over. Gave it to Soma.Soma opened his eyes and opened them, his eyes filled with joy: "Ah! My daughter is indeed so cute!"]

["..." Conan looked at Souma who was holding the three photos in the envelope. He was a little embarrassed but didn't say anything. He was about to leave on his skateboard, but at this time he was stopped by Souma. Ma held three photos in his hand and said with a somewhat infatuated expression. 】

["For the sake of giving me photos, Conan-kun, I will give you three exclusive pieces of information..."]

["?" Conan looked at Souma, who carefully put the photo in his arms, then looked up at Conan and said: "First of all, did you know? There are a lot of people selling Gaia memories here in Tokyo recently. Some of the people have been replaced by people from the Shinomiya Foundation."]

["The Shinomiya Foundation?" Conan looked up at Souma in surprise when he heard this, but Souma smiled and said: "That's right, and the second piece of information is that someone is interested in Fushae The company excavated a few days ago and heard that there were a batch of 800-year-old antiquities. The last piece of information is..."]

[Speaking of this, Soma raised his index finger and pointed to the sky, and chuckled: "Do you know the recent activities of the Shinomiya Foundation?"]

["As for the Shinomiya Consortium, I remember that they have been very interested in the development of the universe recently? They have launched many rockets into the sky in just a few months." Conan thought for a moment and said. 】

["That's right, but according to the information I know now, the old man of the Shinomiya family is about to die, so his sons began to fight for power, and they also mentioned a thing called 'Cosmic Energy' exist."】

["Cosmic energy? What is that?" Obviously Conan didn't know, but instead asked with some worry: "Is Miss Kaguya okay?"]

["I heard it's not bad, and being protected by her president is not bad, but after all, for the Shinomiya family, Miss Shinomiya can be big or small, so your friend is fine for the time being."]

"Hey! Daughter!!!" In 'Vagonaria', even though the TV hanging aside was playing it.But everyone is still working. After all, although it affects daily life, we still need to eat and so on.

There is more than just a TV in the restaurant lobby.There's also one outside the kitchen, but that's what everyone just listens to when they're busy.

But this time, 'Vagonalia' appeared in the video, and everyone watched it carefully.

But there was an incredible piece of information.

Everyone in the store turned their attention to the short-haired boy with blue hair. He was Souma. Now he was a little surprised when he saw the video: "Oh my, I was actually on the camera too."

"This is not the point. Is Mr. Souma really your daughter?" Others did not care about this. Instead, they said with a look of astonishment. The boy with short blue hair showed a gentle smile and said: "That's right."

the other side.

'Kaguya...' Shirogane Yuyuki looked at Shinomiya Kaguya, but he was a little happy in his heart, but at the same time he was very worried. It seemed that he would really protect Kaguya in the future, but what happened to the Shinomiya Consortium was like this situation?

"Kaguya..." As her best friend, Chika Fujiwara also grabbed Shinomiya Kaguya's arm with a worried hand.

"..." Shinomiya Kaguya's originally gentle smile also became a little stiff.

To be honest, the Shinomiya family had never been seen before. Kaguya didn't care at first and was just watching the excitement.
