Detective Conan's Cafe Owner

Chapter 68 Could it be...

Life is full of flavors.

A small cup of coffee seems to contain all the flavors.

Sour, sweet, bitter, spicy, salty, etc.

One sip, you can taste all the flavors, just like life is all-encompassing and omnipresent.

It might be popular if it tasted better.

However it was not good at all.

So Mengpo soup coffee is not popular at all. Although newcomers may order a cup out of curiosity, those who have drunk it will never buy it again.

Except for some monster-like existences.

Is Miyano Akemi a monster?
No.

If it weren't for the special status of her parents, she might just be an ordinary girl.

Going to school, entering a higher school, graduating, working, getting married, etc.

Like so many ordinary girls, she lived an ordinary life not much different from others.

Finally, ashes to ashes to ashes.

But it's a pity that she didn't live an ordinary life, but had to do some dangerous things.

Like working undercover in a bank.

Moreover, this work has been started half a year ago, and until now, it is almost time to end.

Can it really end smoothly?

Miyano Akemi didn't know.

No one can say clearly about the future. If it can be said clearly, it is not an "unknown future".

But some things have to be done.

If you just fantasize in your mind and don't put it into action, the reality will not change in the slightest.

Everyone wants change.

If you do it, you can change it; if you don't do it, nothing will change.

Even though the hope is slim, but at this moment, there is no other better way.

Pick up the cup and take a small sip.

Although it was still difficult to enter her throat, staying in her mouth made her gradually get used to the taste.

No matter how strange the taste is, is there anyone who is so bitter in life?
No.

So drink it down.

"The owner."

Azusa Enomoto stood in front of the counter with her eyes wide open.

He stretched out a hand and patted the counter, successfully attracting Qingming's attention.

"what?"

"She drank it."

"Ok?"

He turned his head and looked at the girl sitting over there.

Sip by sip, although the amount is small, but I did drink it down.

This is a bit surprising.

It's obviously no different from other people before, they all sip it in one gulp, why can they drink it all of a sudden?
After thinking about it, I couldn't figure it out.

"Humans are really magical creatures!"

Qingming let out a sigh.

But he didn't continue to pay attention, but pointed Ayumi in his arms to play games.

Being able to drink a little does not mean that you can drink all three cups. There are very few people like that, one in a million?

No.

It's one in a million.

Not even one out of 1 people can drink it.

In comparison, the little girl in his arms is still interesting.

Teach a little girl to play the game of Raiders Girls...

Well, this won't break her, will it?
It's not impossible.

After all, it's not uncommon for people to play games with distorted sexual concepts. For example, some girls who play mountains and fake girls seem to be quite popular.

For example, Naruto Asai.

No, it turned out that it was a real girl.

It seems that he went to the medical school in Europa to study, and he came to the coffee shop here before he left.

That is a person whose destiny has been changed.

Speaking of changing destiny...

Qingming's eyes fell on the girl sitting over there again.

Although there is such a variable as him in this world, can the girl's fate be changed?
It depends on whether he will intervene.

But there is no idea of ​​intervening, and the other party can't finish three cups of Mengpo soup.

"Let's take one step at a time, after all, anti-routines are popular these days."

Qingming thought so.

These days, it seems to be a fixed routine for the traveler to go back and change Miyano Akemi's fate.

If it is against the routine, of course it will not change.

But it's too early to say these things, maybe the other party can really drink three cups of Mengpo soup coffee.

"Oni sauce, Oni sauce."

"Ok?"

"What's a date for?"

"Dating?"

His eyes fell on the computer screen.

It has developed to the point of going on a date with the heroine.

But what about a date?
The game will provide options, but in the real world, Qingming really doesn't know, after all, he has never dated.

Moreover, Qingming's EQ is really not up to standard.

So when it comes to dating...

"Shopping, watching movies, kissing, and renting a house."

"Open house?"

I can understand everything else, only this, the little girl doesn't understand very well.

Qingming is very clear, so be prepared to explain.

"that is……"

"Shopkeeper, that's enough, don't teach the children badly."

Azusa Enomoto, who was standing in front of the counter, turned her head and stared at Qingming.

Explaining the opening of a house to a little girl, what does the shopkeeper think?I don't know if it's okay to just fool around at a time like this?
However, Qingming seemed to suddenly think of something.

"Speaking of which, Azi."

"what?"

"When are we going to open the room?"

"...don't go."

"Don't go? It's okay not to go, it's good to be in the coffee shop directly, or you can go to your house."

Qingming said he didn't mind about it.

Anyway, there are not many customers in the coffee shop recently, so I can play whatever I want.

At worst, add another Taoism to prevent everyone from entering.

However, Azusa Enomoto just rolled her eyes, then snorted softly, and walked directly towards the kitchen, probably because she didn't want to talk nonsense with Qingming.

But before I leave, a word of warning.

"Don't teach bad children."

"..."

Qingming didn't answer, just smiled.

Ayumi, who has been playing games, also looked at Enomoto Azusa's back, and then at Qingming.

"Oni-chan, Oni-chan, what exactly is a room?"

"It's nothing, you'll understand when you grow up."

"..."

In this regard, Ayumi did not speak, just pouted.

Always treat her like a child.

……

Time passed slowly.

The rain stopped.

Miyano Akemi also left from the coffee shop, three cups of Mengpo soup, after all, she just drank one cup.

Maybe I can continue to drink, or maybe I can't drink anymore.

Anyway, the rain just stopped after drinking a cup, so she just checked out and left without continuing to sit in the coffee shop.

Maybe there are other things to do.

A crow followed her, like a ghost, silently watching her.

Qingming was still a little curious about her, so she paid a little attention.

No matter how.

One day passed in this state again.

no guest.

In the evening, Ayumi also went home, leaving only Qingming and Enomoto Azusa.

The two of them didn't do anything, they were just in a daze.

Then, at the same time, sighed lightly.

"It's really peaceful!"

……

Time doesn't stop passing.

Xiaolan and the others who went to Osaka did not stay long, and came back the next day.

I brought some special products there for Qingming. By the way, what I have seen and heard in Osaka, Osaka is different from Tokyo.

The day passed in chat.

a new day.

It is rare that Qingming and Xiaolan go to school together.

Recently, I occasionally go to school.

For this change in Qingming, Xiaolan is naturally aware of it, and also feels a little surprised.

After thinking about it carefully, I found something again.

It seems that Qingming started going to school after meeting Naoko Takei.

To be precise, after Naoko Takei was grounded by her father and could not come to the coffee shop often, Qingming would occasionally go to school for a day.

Could Qingming be interested in Takei Naoko?
It doesn't seem right either.

If you want to talk about why, Qingming and Enomoto Azusa have even kissed, and she saw it with her own eyes.

Or, Qingming is a playful person?
This is not impossible.

After all, I always hear the saying that "men are fickle".

In particular, her mother, Consort Eri, always accused her father, Mori Kogoro, in related terms.

Could Qingming really be that kind of person?
