Detective Conan's Cafe Owner

Chapter 221 Meaningless
The bright moon hangs high.

Bursts of cloud and mist drifted past, making the moon hazy again.

It was still dark outside.

If possible, Qingming would like to fly outside the atmosphere to see if the world is really that vast, and also to see if the universe is really so colorful.

There are some things that cannot be answered without seeing them with your own eyes.

Although sometimes, what you see with your own eyes is not necessarily the truth.

"Shibao..."

Qingming muttered a few words.

No one heard what he was saying, not even Qian who was standing behind him.

Maybe nothing was said, or maybe everything was said.

This is not important.

"Don't worry, nothing will happen."

Seemed a little impatient.

Anyway, Qingming didn't plan to say anything more, and waved her hands without looking back, signaling Qian to leave quickly.

He always does.

However, Qian can understand, after all, after getting along for a long time, she can be regarded as clear about Qingming's personality.

An annoying character.

Moreover, never expect to know his true thoughts from Qingming.

Qingming is too mysterious.

There are pretended mysteries and real mysteries.

She and him have always been people in two worlds, but because of a strange coincidence, they met and developed into the current "cohabitation" relationship.

Relying on the relationship that is forcibly tied together by the so-called "wish".

It is not the "cooperative" relationship between Qingming and Conan, nor the employment relationship between Qingming and the twin maids, nor the relationship between Qingming and Enomoto Azusa.

To be honest, the current "cohabitation" relationship is very unreliable.

But there is no other way.

She is already very grateful that Qingming is willing to protect the two sisters, which is something that others cannot do.

What can be done has nothing to do with the two sisters.

Therefore, staying by Qingming's side and accepting Qingming's protection is the best choice and the only choice.

"Then I will..."

She opened her mouth, wanting to leave here and go back to her room.

But Qingming spoke suddenly.

"Hey, Sissy."

"Ok?"

"Stay here in the manor all the time, do you think it's okay?"

"?"

Qian looked at Qingming who didn't look back, and seemed to be puzzled by such a question.

"Why do you ask this all of a sudden?"

"Is it strange that you suddenly thought of it, so you suddenly asked?"

"That's not..."

Sissy shook her head.

Qingming is a magical creature full of suddenness, so there is nothing surprising about it.

Just wondering about a question like this.

Staying in the manor all the time...

"There's nothing wrong with it. This is my only shelter. I really don't know where I should go if I leave here."

She gave the answer without thinking too much.

After speaking, he seemed to think of something, looked at Qingming with wide eyes again, and asked further questions.

"What, you want me to leave?"

"Ask you to leave? Don't think too much. This is not a place where you can come and leave whenever you want. You didn't want to let you two sisters leave. Now, it's too late."

"Then why ask such a question? It's meaningless, isn't it?"

"significance?"

Qingming turned her head slightly, squinting at Qian.

"What do you think is meaningful? There is no meaning for a person to live, because sooner or later he will die. Once he dies, there will be nothing. Everything is meaningless."

"..."

Akane didn't answer.

She disagreed with some of Qingming's thoughts, but she couldn't refute them.

Because I don't know how to respond.

Of course, in fact, it is meaningless to refute. Qingming is a person who is extremely self-centered. He doesn't care about other people's thoughts at all, and he doesn't reflect on himself.

"Okay, you go back and rest."

She didn't speak, and Qingming didn't seem to have any intention of continuing the conversation, so she just let her go.

Akane also didn't intend to say anything.

She bowed slightly to salute, turned around and left, and Qingming was the only one left in the room.

Turning around, he glanced at the door that was just closed.

Continue to look outside.

The moon in the sky is still the same, except for the cloudy and sunny, it seems that there has never been any change.

On the ground, however, the people looking up at the moon changed one after another.

"People today don't see the moon in ancient times, but this month once illuminated the ancients!"

……

The sun rises and the moon sets.

Everything is going on as usual.

Every human being, every creature, lives its own daily life, which is both similar and different.

Different people do different things.

And some people are busy with the same thing now.

Such as a certain aunt, such as Conan.

and the FBI.

The three forces are competing, except that there is no intelligence system on Conan's side, the intelligence personnel of the organization and the FBI are coming and going to greet each other, and many things have happened in places that ordinary people can't see.

The world is never peaceful, at most it is superficially peaceful.

In fact, if you really want to say it, Conan also has his own intelligence system, that is, Qingming. The crow of Qingming can be regarded as monitoring every move of the entire Tokyo.

Although it's not that powerful, if you want to know the actions of some key figures, it's still no problem.

It's a pity that Qingming didn't intend to help him to this extent at all.

So Conan can only rely on himself.

Sometimes I feel that this child is quite sad, Hui Yuan Ai is also his partner, but in dealing with the organization, Hui Yuan Ai can't help him much, the biggest help is to make an antidote.

I don't know when it will be completed, the real antidote.

Then Qingming.

Needless to say, although Qingming can help him with many things, Qingming, who bears the title of "partner", belongs to the kind of people who gather people, do not work hard, and the information he gives is of no use. At this point, there are some subtleties.

So Conan has to rely on his mother, Yukiko Kudo, his best friend, Heiji Hattori, and Dr. Agasa for logistical support.

Other than that, there were really few people who could help him.

This time it is to rely on these three people.

Originally, he also wanted to ask Qingming for help, but Qingming refused, and the reason was very simple: he also wanted to attend the masquerade party.

Then Qingming said something like "Leave the party to me".

But having said that, in fact, according to Conan's speculation, nothing big will happen at the party. After all, the other party is leading them to the boat, so the really important thing is Tokyo.

Therefore, Qingming simply wanted to hide and watch the show.

"That's the only way to go!"

In the end, Conan could only helplessly admit such a thing.

Not to mention that.

As time passed, the night of the full moon finally came.

In the afternoon, Qingming took Ayumi to the pier, boarded the boat for the party, and arranged it like a pirate ship.

"Full of ominous atmosphere!"

Standing on the deck, Qingming said this.

He didn't wear makeup at all, and it was no different from usual, and the same was true for Ayumi who was held in his arms.

No one would care anyway.

Just kidding, Qingming is a believer of the great god Akalin, and Akalin's attributes are activated, who can notice him?
nonexistent.

At this time, the others just pretended that they didn't exist, and no one came to strike up a conversation. Even the staff seemed to have forgotten that there were such two guests.

Mori Kogoro and Suzuki Sonoko also came.

In addition to them, Kudo Yukiko disguised as Medusa, and Hattori Heiji covered in bandages also came.

And the vodka that came on assignment.

The rest are not important people, Qingming doesn't care at all, he cares more about whether he can have a good time tonight, although there is nothing interesting on this broken ship.

But there is still a little girl in my arms who can "play".

"Let's go, little girl, go and see our room, maybe we will share the same bed tonight!"

"?"
