Detective Conan's Cafe Owner

Chapter 162 It seems...

in the afternoon.

Qingming stood at the door of the coffee shop.

The sky is still gloomy, and occasionally a gust of wind blows by, blowing off a few leaves on the green trees and drifting slowly in front of the eyes.

There are not many pedestrians on the street.

Occasionally, a few girls walked by, chatting with smiles all over their faces. When the wind blew, they just brushed their messy hair with their hands, which didn't affect their mood at all.

It's not a good day, but at least it's a good day.

Perhaps for students, as long as they don't have to go to class, it's a good day, at least for the vast majority of students.

"Um……"

Qingming lowered her head slightly, looking at the short skirt fluttering in the wind.

Then shook his head.

"It wouldn't work if it wasn't for the updraft!"

The gifts of nature are not so easy to appear, and it is not so easy for girls to disappear.

Maybe make the fabled updraft yourself?
Qingming thought about it.

Before he could figure out why, a few people appeared on the stairs over there, and the Maori family upstairs came down.

Not just them, but a woman.

He looked quite young, and he was wearing a kimono or a yukata, anyway, Qingming couldn't tell the difference, and he didn't understand the difference.

"Qingming."

Xiaolan was the first to notice Qingming standing at the door, and walked over with a smile.

Mori Kogoro and the others also came over.

Qingming glanced at it.

"Uncle, is there another commission?"

Asked with a smile.

Mori Kogoro hasn't had any commissions lately. Although he has been involved in many cases, he basically works for the Metropolitan Police Department for nothing. Apart from gaining a good reputation, there are not many practical benefits.

"What's none of your business? Go sell your coffee, hum!"

Mori Kogoro's attitude towards Qingming has never been good, perhaps because Qingming and Xiaolan are relatively close, so his daughter feels dangerous.

Although in fact, Qingming and Xiaolan are just friends, not very close.

But a father, especially a father who has the attribute of controlling daughters, let alone a friend of the daughter's opposite sex, even a classmate of the opposite sex, probably won't feel at ease.

"Yes, this Ms. Chibo Jinghua wants Dad to help find someone."

Xiaolan explained with a smile.

Before Qingming continued to ask, he added another sentence.

"Ms. Chibo Jinghua's bronchus is a little bad. There was a bit of dust in the office just now, which made her cough all the time, so I came down to borrow your office."

"Oh, whatever."

Qingming nodded.

Xiaolan smiled all over her face, and didn't say much, just introduced a word.

"Ms. Chibo Jinghua, this is Qingming, my classmate and the owner of this coffee shop."

"Hello."

"Hello."

Qingming smiled all over his face.

Chi Bo Jinghua...

The name sounds a little familiar, but the surname seems a bit wrong.

But I'm too lazy to think about it.

Mori Kogoro walked in with Chibo Jinghua and Conan first, leaving Xiaolan chatting with Qingming outside.

"Qingming, what are you doing standing here?"

"It's nothing."

Qingming shook her head.

His gaze fell on Xiaolan's short skirt, and he paused for a moment.

Then all smiles again.

"Go in, I'll treat you to a cake."

"Really? Then I won't be polite."

Xiaolan also smiled.

The two talked and laughed, and walked into the coffee shop.

……

Chi Bo Jinghua.

He said he was looking for a middle school classmate, so he asked Mori Kogoro to help.

What I hold is a photo from 30 years ago, and it has been almost 30 years since I lost contact. It is really troublesome to find it.

This is what I heard from Xiaolan.

Conan, Mori Kogoro, and Ikebo Shizuka were sitting there talking.

Xiaolan was standing in front of the counter.

As if thinking of something, he looked directly at Qingming again.

"Qingming, aren't you very good at finding people? Can you help me find them?"

"decide as things go."

Seimei, who was holding Ayumi, waved her hand.

Sometimes even a Taoist priest may not be able to find someone, because the other party is likely to be dead, or there is no way to search for other reasons.

For example, the distance is too far, the missing time is too long and the like.

Taoist priests can't do everything, and there are many things they can't do, such as resurrecting people who have completely died.

But in general, finding someone is no problem.

However, that Chibo Jinghua had nothing to do with Qingming, and he didn't drink three cups of Mengpo soup and coffee, so Qingming really didn't care about such nosy matters.

Chibo Jinghua is just Chibo Jinghua, not the new name Xiangbaoli.

"Um……"

Speaking of this, Qingming suddenly remembered.

"Speaking of which, it seems like I haven't seen Xiangbaoli for a long time."

"Eh?"

Saying such words suddenly made Xiaolan a little confused.

Talking about Chiba Jinghua, why did it involve Xiangbaoli?

In the words of Xiangbaoli...

"You mean the new name, Ms. Xiangbaoli?"

"Ah."

Qingming nodded.

The new name, Xiangbaoli, can be regarded as a friend, because Qingming cured her father, so she respects Qingming very much, even though Qingming is only a teenager.

Recently, the new name Xiangbaoli is also very famous, because she started to write mystery novels, which are more exciting than her father's. It can be said that the blue is better than the blue.

Her talents are above her father's.

She didn't realize this before, but Qingming reminded her a few times, so she also started to try, and the first book was successful, which is not at the same level as Mr. Xiaolin.

"Miss Xiangbaoli..."

Xiao Lan just wanted to say something.

But Mori Kogoro over there suddenly called out.

"Lan, let's go."

"Eh? Where are you going?"

"Go upstairs, I want to call someone to help investigate."

Mori Kogoro came over.

Conan and Chi Bo Jinghua also followed him, and it seemed that they already had some idea of ​​investigation.

"Of course, you can stay here."

He waved his hand.

There was not much to say, and he left with the two of them.

This made Xiaolan a little puzzled.

But for the time being, he didn't say much, just looked at Qingming with a smile.

"Then I'll go first, Qingming."

"Ah."

Qingming nodded.

Watching Xiaolan leave, she tapped her finger on the table, thinking about something.

Sure enough, I feel that the name Chi Bo Jinghua is a bit familiar, Chi Bo...Jinghua...

Jinghua...

"uh-huh?"

Suddenly remembered something.

If the surname is changed to Hattori, there seems to be no problem, although Qingming doesn't know her at all.

Hattori Shizuka.

That is Hattori Heiji's mother.

I remember that she is also a very capable woman, although apart from that kind of ability, Qingming doesn't know what else she can do.

But it is not important.

"Just an old woman."

Qingming picks ears.

Then he lowered his head and looked at Ayumi, who had been held in his arms, playing the game seriously.

"Little girl."

"Ok?"

"Remember to call your parents later and tell them to live at the manor tonight, and let's go play together tomorrow."

"Hi! I remember."

The little girl nodded with a smile.

This is what was agreed before, we want to go to that dugong celebration together.

Of course, the little girl just wanted to play.

As for Qingming, he wanted to see the three-dimensional witch for himself. It was on a small island, and he had nothing to do anyway, and after staying in the coffee shop for so long, it was not bad to go out to play occasionally.

only……

"Something bad is about to happen!"

Qingming secretly sighed.

Ayumi doesn't understand these things, she just plays the game seriously, although she is a little girl, she thinks the game of Raiding beautiful girls is quite fun.

Because every young lady is very beautiful.

"Um……"

Qingming touched the little girl's head, thinking.

Maybe we should get some Lily God Works or something to lead the little girl to this path of no return...

Well, just kidding.

Little girl or something, it's better to keep it for yourself.
