Detective Conan's Cafe Owner

Chapter 84
in the afternoon.

Back home from school, Conan is alone today.

When I returned downstairs, I took a glance at the coffee shop, which seemed to be the same as before.

Walking up the stairs to the second floor, just about to open the door and go in to have a look, I found a few girls walking down from the third floor.

"Conan, school is over."

Azusa Enomoto greeted him with a smile on his face.

Although I don't know why, Qingming seems to be full of malice towards Conan, a kid, but she is more pleasing to Conan.

After all, they are only children.

"Yes, sister Azi."

Conan nodded with a smile.

He also looked at the little girl who was following Azusa Enomoto, one was Akane, and he always felt that Akane was very similar to "Masami Hirota".

But it's just a resemblance.

In fact, when I was still "Hirota Masami", because of the heavy makeup on my face, there are still many differences compared with the plain makeup now.

And the height is also different, so Conan didn't have too much doubt.

He knew Qian, but he had never seen the little girl with brown hair before, so he couldn't help being a little puzzled.

No one wants to introduce him.

Akane just nodded her head as a greeting, and dragged the little girl downstairs with Enomoto Azusa.

Haibara Ai.

This is the name she told Enomoto Azusa.

Of course, at the beginning, Qingming said this, at least in this world.

For some unknown reason, she still used this name. Maybe it was because she was too lazy to think of other things, or maybe she liked the name too.

None of this matters.

Passed by Conan, but stared at Conan for a while.

Sensing her gaze, Conan was a little puzzled.

However, the girls had already walked away, and only one figure could be seen from the back.

Stand at the door and think for a moment.

Shaking his head directly, he opened the door and walked in.

"I am back."

……

coffee shop.

Qingming was still sitting at the counter and flipping through novels.

To be honest, this is actually easy to be regarded as a background board, but who makes him unusual.

Azusa Enomoto walked in with Akane and the others, and picked up the keys and paperwork placed on the counter.

"Hey, you can stay here for the time being, the address is on it."

"We live?"

Akane, who took the keys and documents, was a little puzzled.

Azusa Enomoto nodded.

"Well, the owner asked me to rent it, right, owner."

Looking at Qingming with a smile.

Qian also looked at Qingming, feeling a little unbelievable.

Although it was Qingming who rescued her, Qingming really never cared about her, and just let her lie on the sofa at night without a blanket, and didn't care if she caught a cold or not.

She was also asked to wear a maid outfit, not ordinary clothes, and even the underwear underneath was bought for her by Azusa Enomoto.

So he suddenly said that Qingming would rent a house for her or something...

But Qingming did not deny it.

But nothing was said.

Looking at Qingming and blinking, although he didn't understand, he hurriedly thanked him.

"Thank you store owner."

"..."

Qingming didn't speak, just waved his hands.

So whether it was Enomoto Azusa or Akane, they were very wise not to disturb and went to work.

I don't know why, as soon as Qian came back, guests came to the door immediately.

Sure enough, lolicon is rampant here?

Not to mention this.

The little girl, that is, Hui Yuanai, did not follow her, but stood in front of the counter and looked up at Qingming.

Is this the boy who saved her sister?
It's hard to believe that someone who looks very ordinary and doesn't look much different from ordinary teenagers.

Yet her older sister is here, and in smaller form.

Unlike her, who was made smaller by the drugs, her sister was...

Well, she doesn't know how her sister got smaller. Anyway, it shouldn't be because of some medicine or something, and it's not accurate enough to say that she got smaller. To be more precise, it should be shrinking.

Just zoom out.

Nothing has changed, only the body shape has changed, that's right, it has shrunk.

Unlike her, everything in the body except the mind has degenerated to the childhood of seven or eight years old.

So how?
She was a little curious.

It's just that Qingming doesn't seem to like her very much, even if she keeps staring at him, he treats her as if she doesn't exist.

A long time passed like this.

"that……"

She tried to speak.

Someone has to speak first, but Qingming is very patient and doesn't even look at her, so it is probably useless to wait until he speaks.

Therefore, she could only speak first to break the silence.

"Mr. Shopkeeper."

She called out, then stared at Qingming.

It just didn't work.

It seems that he is completely ignoring her, which really makes people feel a little uncomfortable.

After thinking about it carefully, he spoke directly again.

"O... oh... Oni sauce?"

It seemed difficult to call out, but after struggling for a while, I still called out.

She has never directly called someone "Oni Jiang" like this. Although Qingming said it was his name, she was skeptical about it.

But after calling out like this, Qingming finally responded.

Although it was just rolling his eyeballs and squinting at her, it was still a reaction anyway.

"that……"

Hui Yuan Ai was about to speak, but suddenly froze again.

and so……

What were you going to say just now?

Here it is again, this kind of sudden memory impairment, I can clearly remember the last second, but when I want to speak, I can't remember at all.

Very nasty feeling.

He sighed secretly, then bowed slightly.

"Thank you."

After finishing speaking, he turned around and sat on the seat over there. Anyway, he didn't remember what to say, so he didn't say anything at all.

Qingming squinted at the back of her walking past.

Curling his lips, he continued to read the book.

……

dinner time.

At first it was two people eating, not long ago it became three people, and now it is four people.

It seems that there is a feeling of getting more and more lively.

But it's just an illusion.

In fact, apart from Enomoto Azusa, both Akane and Haibara Ai are relatively distant from Qingming, and even if they get together for dinner, it won't seem lively or anything.

But if there are four people, it seems that they can play mahjong.

Mahjong is really fun.

It's a pity that there is no Saki Miyanaga, no Tian Jiangyi, and no Kiyosumi High School here.

Obviously there are animes he likes more, but he just let him time travel to such an anime that he doesn't like very much and is not very familiar with.

Qingming secretly sighed.

But think about it, since this world can exist, can other worlds also exist?Since you can travel to this world, will you also be able to travel to other worlds?
Maybe try being hit by a car, struck by lightning or something?
"correct……"

Azusa Enomoto seemed to remember something.

Looking at the two sisters, he asked.

"Where are your parents?"

"..."

The sisters looked at each other.

Akane thought for a moment before answering.

"Because of work... disappeared."

"Missing?"

Azusa Enomoto froze for a moment.

But he didn't bother with this question and continued to ask.

"Then you don't have any other relatives?"

"No."

"That's it."

Azusa Enomoto nodded thoughtfully.

He looked at Qingming again.

"Shopkeeper, why don't you just take care of them all the time, such a small child without parents... What do you think?"

"..."

Qingming looked at Enomoto Azusa, then Akane and Haibara Ai.

Then speak.

"not good."

"Eh? Why?"

Before the two sisters spoke, Enomoto Azusa was a little unhappy.

"Shopkeeper, you have to be caring to be a human being, and it's not just for you to keep it for nothing, Qian will help you with the work."

"Don't they all have boyfriends? Find your boyfriends and take care of you, don't bother me."

"what are you saying?"

Azusa Enomoto was a little unhappy.

It's fine if you don't help, what about boyfriend...

A little girl of thirteen or fourteen, a little girl of seven or eight, would such a little girl have a boyfriend?

"Your reason is too unreasonable."

"The world is irrational. Moreover, I am not related to them, so why should I take care of them?"

"Cy is helping you with your work."

"If you help me work, I will take care of them? Don't you need me to take care of you if you help me work? You just need me to teach you."

"you……"

So this shopkeeper is too much to beat.
