Chapter 16 Cafe

Maori Detective Agency
  After preparing lunch lunch, Xiaolan was ready to go out
  "Dad, I've put breakfast on the table. You can make up your own mind for dinner."

"..."

Kogoro, who played mahjong all night yesterday, had no strength. He fell down after hearing his daughter's conversation.

"Dad! Why are you so drunk again? It's only morning."

Xiaolan just wanted to take the beer from Kogoro's hand, but then she thought that she would be late for school, so she slammed the table and scolded: "Dad, if you keep doing this, don't even think about eating my cooking... "

Half awake and half drunk, Kogoro heard someone talking about him, and he instantly became angry: "Don't be so verbose, don't bother me."

"I will never pay attention to you again..."

Xiaolan, who was so angry at this early in the morning, rushed downstairs angrily, but not long after walking, she heard the extremely discordant piano playing in the building opposite.

After hearing this unpleasant music, I couldn't help but complain: "If you don't know how to play, then don't play..."

But she soon realized something was wrong. She remembered that the three-story building opposite the detective office seemed to be uninhabitable. She had ignored this just now.

"Could it be a ghost?"

At this moment, Fujiwara, who had reached the climax of his playing, pressed eight notes at once, which sounded terrifying.

Xiaolan was so excited that she quickly left the place.

……

Fujiwara, who was enjoying playing the piano on the other side, lay weakly on the keys.

"It's so enjoyable."

Things that I couldn't even touch in my previous life are now played with to my heart's content.

Moreover, you can easily get things here that you could not get out of a lifetime of hard work in your previous life. You must know that the housing prices in Tokyo are similar to those in the Magic City. Building a three-story western-style building in the Magic City does not cost more than RMB 100 million.

That's good. Now that you've come to this world, you have to show your true skills.

[In view of the fact that the host's playing is very unpleasant and has caused psychological shadow to Xiaolan, the system will give you an intermediate piano performance as a gift]

Fujiwara sighed helplessly when he saw this number. He just played the piano to make himself happy. Why did he offend others?

"I'm really convinced..."

Why do these sixth sons of the Maori family always hate themselves in places he can't see?

However, he still received the intermediate piano performance given by the system and waited for Xiaolan to come over that day to restore his reputation.

"But Kudo Shinichi hasn't been beaten yet, and the tragedy on Moon Shadow Island hasn't happened yet, right?"

Now that you're here, do something useful.

After taking a short rest, he called the advertising company again and asked them to hurry up and deliver it to his agency.

He wanted to start business today, grab jobs as soon as possible, accumulate system points early, and enter the next task.

At noon, he went to the Polo Café downstairs from Kogoro Mori's office and ordered a cup of hot chocolate and a plate of tiramisu.

Desserts are what keeps him sane. Without enough sugar, people will become weak.

Azusa Enomoto is an employee who was recently hired. After studying with the store manager for a while, she is now proficient in making several desserts.

"Your dessert is ready."

Azusa Enomoto placed the desserts in front of Fujiwara with a smile on her face.
  "Use it slowly."

"Oh, thank you."

What he ordered was matcha flavored, with matcha powder sprinkled on top.

“⊙⊙It’s delicious!”

Fujiwara Hoshiumi's performance made Enomoto Azusa happy, who was looking forward to positive reviews.

"haha, thank you."

It is also a good thing to be praised by customers. Last time, she was told that the food was too unpalatable, which made her feel aggrieved and sad all day long. She is easily swayed by guests' comments.

[Enomoto Azusa's favorability score is 51] "Huh? Just a compliment and you get a favorability score? This is too fake."

Fujiwara complained in his mind and continued to destroy the desserts.

Dessert can make you feel happy because it promotes the secretion of dopamine in the body. Dopamine stimulates brain cells and makes people feel happy.

"Is Azusa Enomoto a character in the original work? Why do you feel so unimpressed?"

He filtered through the Conan plot in his mind, but couldn't find any memories related to her. All he had was a vague figure, a passerby who didn't deserve a name.

"Maybe it didn't appear in the first one or two hundred episodes, right?"

After eating the tiramisu and drinking a cup of hot chocolate milk, I felt like my body had filled up all the calories it needed for a week.

Maybe it was because he hadn't seen the handsome guy for a long time, but Azusa Enomoto couldn't help but look at him a few more times when he was serving Fujiwara Hoshiumi.

Fujiwara also noticed the other person's furtive gaze, but did not make any noise or secretly laugh. After all, everyone has the right to appreciate beautiful things, and he couldn't let the other person turn away and look away.

This is his first time as a handsome guy. He looks cool but is actually very nervous.

He drank hot cocoa carelessly and looked at all kinds of passers-by outside the window as if nothing had happened.

This gave Azusa Enomoto, who was paying close attention here, a chance to peek openly.

"He's just as handsome as Taku-chan!"

Just when she fell into pure fantasy, Fujiwara Xinghai just turned around and looked at her.

"What happened, I was discovered!"

No matter which country you are in, it is rude to stare at someone for a long time, let alone if she was found out about it.

"How to explain it?"

The more Azusa Enomoto thought about it, the more embarrassed she became. The more embarrassed she became, the redder her face turned. A blush appeared on her fair face.

"So this is what it feels like to be a handsome guy."

Fujiwara smiled proudly.

[One, ask Azusa Enomoto to go to the amusement park together. Reward for completing the task: 50 shopping mall points]

[Two, ask Azusa Enomoto to go watch a midnight movie together. Rewards for completing tasks: random skill points. 】

Fujiwara was a little surprised by this task. He just wanted to tease this cute girl and had no other intention. Does this system want him to conquer it now?

Option 2 seems to be a bit of a cause for trouble. It would be too exaggerated for the two of them to go to a midnight movie just after they met, and they would probably refuse even if they were invited.

Moreover, the rewards of option two are not as valuable as those of option one, so no matter what you choose, it is always more cost-effective to choose one.

"Choose one!"

Fujiwara stood up and slowly approached Azusa Enomoto.

Azusa Enomoto also noticed that the other party was approaching him, and he couldn't help but become nervous, and various plots from shoujo comics quickly emerged in his mind.

"Miss Enomoto, can I invite you..."

"it is good!"

The other party's reaction was a bit unexpected. After all, he hadn't even finished speaking yet...

【50 system points】

Seeing the points being credited, Fujiwara felt very happy. After all, he didn't dare to guarantee that the other party would definitely agree, but he didn't expect this to be quite good.

"Then let's change our contact information so that I can call you when the time comes."

"Ah."

The two exchanged contact information, and Fujiwara happily counted his remaining points and left.

After the other party walked out of the store, Azusa Enomoto remembered that he didn't know what kind of invitation he had agreed to.

But considering the other party's polite attitude, she didn't care so much. He couldn't just take her to a bad place, right?
