Detective Conan's Cafe Owner

Chapter 62
the next day.

Early in the morning, Azusa Enomoto came to the coffee shop.

As soon as he entered the door, he found Qingming lying on the counter, so he immediately looked surprised.

"Huh? Is the owner sleeping? It's really rare!"

Anyway, in the past, it was rare to see people sleeping on Qingming.

Sometimes she wonders whether Qingming doesn't need to sleep at all, after all, she is a Taoist priest, although she doesn't know what kind of existence a Taoist priest is.

But Qingming did not fall asleep.

As soon as he heard the movement, he yawned and looked up.

"Azi."

called.

Then he paused, as if in a daze.

Then he looked at Azusa Enomoto and waved at her.

"Come here, I want milk for breakfast this morning."

"...Go to hell."

Cursed unceremoniously.

Then he ran to the back kitchen to make breakfast, seemingly angrily.

Or maybe it was shyness, after all, she blushed.

Regarding this, Qingming just pouted.

"Why are you ashamed? I've touched everything that should be touched and should not be touched."

That being said, I still miss it a bit.

Maybe tonight, I should go to her house with Azusa Enomoto and do what I need to do?

worth considering.

After thinking about it, he yelled directly towards the back of the kitchen.

"Azi, I really want to drink milk, yogurt, don't forget to prepare."

"No road race (long-winded)!"

There was a reply from the kitchen.

It seems that he is still a little embarrassed, but it is natural.

Qingming shrugged and didn't think much about it.

……

noon.

There are no guests today.

Azusa Enomoto, who had been standing at the door waiting for the guests to come, let out a long yawn out of boredom.

"very strange."

she said so.

Turning his head, he looked at Qingming who was sitting at the counter.

"Shopkeeper, the number of customers has really decreased recently, and some regular customers have stopped coming. Is it really all right?"

"Love will not come."

Qingming replied without raising her head.

Since the morning, I have been flipping through a novel, and I seem to be fascinated by it.

Azusa Enomoto took a look.

Detective... the uncle?What kind of weird title is this?

But this is not important.

"It's serious to have no customers, shopkeeper."

"so what?"

"Since you opened a coffee shop, haven't you thought about being the best?"

"never mind."

Wave your hand.

He has never had the idea of ​​"making the business bigger and better".

Azusa Enomoto was a little speechless about this.

"Are you really slack? In other words, you have no ideals at all? You just muddle along every day, and you feel completely useless."

"Let's just waste it, ideals and the like can't be eaten."

Qingming shrugged, indicating that he didn't care at all.

Ideals, dreams, etc., are things that are far away from him, and I don't know when they have been abandoned.

But Azusa Enomoto opened her eyes wide.

"If you don't have ideals in life, how is it different from a salted fish?"

"what?"

"I saw it from a Chinese movie."

"It does not matter."

Qingming waved his hand again.

Then continue to read the novel in hand.

"I've already decided that from now on, I'll just muddle along and wait to die. Anyway, when I came to this world, I don't plan to go back alive. Since I'm going to die in the end, it doesn't matter whether he will be immortal or notorious or become a background board , are all insignificant things.”

"..."

What should I say...

The owner of the shop is indeed useless, and it is estimated that he will not be able to save him.

Looking at Qingming who was reading seriously.

After a long silence, he couldn't help but speak again.

"Shopkeeper, is this novel a good read?"

"Ah, not too bad."

Qingming still didn't look up.

Perhaps I have been completely attracted by the novel in hand.

By the way, a little introduction.

"It's a mystery novel with an uncle as the protagonist. Surprisingly, there is almost no reasoning content. It is all daily content, plus some life insights. It is still very interesting to calm down and read it carefully."

"..."

Anyway, Azusa Enomoto didn't quite understand.

A mystery novel has no reasoning content, so it’s still called Mao’s mystery novel?
It seems that Qingming's taste is indeed different from that of ordinary people.

Helplessly shrugged.

But he didn't think too much, and continued to stand there, waiting for the guests to come to the door.

And so on for a long time.

With a "ding", the bell tied to the door rang.

A young girl opened the door and walked in.

"welcome."

A rare guest came, and Azusa Enomoto immediately greeted her with a smile on her face.

Taking a closer look, I found that it was a girl in her twenties with a worried face, maybe something bad happened.

Just about to bring people into position.

But to her surprise, the girl walked directly towards the counter.

"Hey, this guest..."

Azusa Enomoto wanted to stop her.

Qingming is a person, sometimes no one will give him face, especially when he is focusing on one thing.

He is reading now, if you disturb him, the consequences will be very serious.

Although I have never seen Qingming get angry.

But what if?
If he gets angry this time, it will be a big problem.

However, Qingming waved his hand towards her.

"Go and prepare Mengpo soup, six cups."

"Eh? All right."

It seemed that something happened that she didn't know about.

Without thinking too much, he walked directly to the back.

Qingming raised her head and looked at the young girl who walked to the counter.

The new name is Xiang Baoli.

"Can you save my father?"

She asked directly.

The new name, Ren Tailang, has been transferred to the hospital, and the doctors have conducted the examination as quickly as possible, and the conclusion is the same: terminally ill and preparing for funeral.

Moreover, it's just a matter of these few days.

With no other choice, she could only come to Qingming. After all, according to what she learned, Qingming gave her father a few needles, which could make her father live a few more days.

Maybe there is really some way to cure her father.

"Don't worry."

A smile appeared on Qingming's face.

"Drink the coffee first, this is the foundation of everything!"

Three cups of Mengpo soup, if you finish drinking it, then you can talk about anything, if you can't finish it, then you don't need to talk about it.

Although Qingming recently felt that this seemed to be a loss.

Sure enough, there must be some additional conditions?
he thought.

Xinming Xiangbaoli didn't say much, turned around and sat down in the seat over there.

Xiaolan told her that Qingming had a rather strange temper.

It also shows the rules of the coffee shop, drinking three cups of Mengpo soup coffee is the basis of everything.

So, although I was very anxious, I didn't want to break such rules.

People who break the rules are not likable.

This is especially true for rule makers.

The rules of the coffee shop are made by Qingming. In the coffee shop, Qingming is the rule. If you break the rules of Qingming, wouldn't that be slapping Qingming in the face?Slap someone in the face and expect others to help you?

Don't feel too good about yourself.

Qingming didn't know what she was thinking, but he was satisfied with her attitude.

This is like begging for help.

But is this really asking for help?Sure enough, people should kneel down and say something like "be a cow or a horse".

Hmm, something doesn't seem right.

Leave it alone.

Anyway, Qingming didn't think too much about it, his personality is a bit bad.

Keep reading.

Not long after, Enomoto Azusa came out with six cups of Mengpo soup coffee on a tray, and brought them to Xinming Xiangbaoli.

Looking at the dark green bubbling liquid, Shinna Kahori felt a little...

Nausea.

Is this stuff really for people to drink?

"Xiangbaoli...the name doesn't have the word 'zi' in it, and it's still six cups, can you drink it down? It's really exciting!"

Qingming put down the novel in his hand and looked at it curiously.

It seems that so far, there is no one whose name does not contain the word "zi" who can drink three cups of Mengpo soup coffee smoothly.

　The update really is my flaw
　　In addition, the cover really appeared here in the background, it seems that everyone can't see it, and I don't know what's going on
