Chapter 116 Chapter 116 Dirty Talk

Chapter 116 Chapter 116 Dirty Talk

They returned to Tokyo from Olga's private island by boat.

In reality, the island wasn't that far away. That's why Rei Furuya was able to determine its approximate location based on his observations of the island's ocean currents and climate, as well as the faces of the occasional shipowners who came aboard to deliver supplies. He then secretly sent his estimated location to Kazami using Olga's phone.

Then, Kazami led his men to search the small sea area that Fūya Rei had guessed for less than a day, and actually found them.

After returning to Tokyo, Olga thought she would be arrested soon and thrown into a detention center to await prosecution.

But no.

Maybe Rei Furuya still planned to continue working undercover in the organization, so he didn't do anything to Olga.

But he didn't even restrict Olga's freedom. Olga then realized that Furuya Rei was actually planning to carry on as usual, as if nothing had happened. His attitude towards Olga and the way he interacted with her hadn't changed at all.

What's the meaning?

Is he really sure that she won't do anything to him?

There are actually such arrogant undercover agents in the world? !

Then Olga began to feel unhappy.

With the mentality of making life harder for everyone else, Olga began to constantly find fault with Rei Furuya, from small things like spilling Coke on the carpet to big things like crashing his new car. However...

Jiang Gu Ling just doesn't respond!

His emotions were so stable that he always appeared calm and good-tempered in front of Olga, as if he was a fake person wearing a mask who would never get angry.

This made Olga even more upset.

Pure physical attacks were now ineffective against Rei Furuya. Olga decided to use a mental attack.

But... it doesn't work!

In the past, Rei Furuya was extremely shy about physical contact. Even a hug would make him stiffen. If Olga had said, "I love Rei the most," he would have blushed immediately.

However, the current Ling Ling is no longer the Ling Ling of the past. He has changed.

In the few days after returning to Tokyo, Olga tried the hug attack, the sweet talk attack, and even the kiss attack, but the result was - none of them worked!

Not only did Rei Furuya accept all of this, he even learned to take the initiative!

Now, it was Olga who froze. She did this to find fault with Rei Furuya and embarrass him, not to make her heart beat faster and hurt.

Another afternoon, before school was over, Olga sat in the classroom of Class B, Year 2 of Teitan High School, with one hand resting on her chin, gazing out the window at the playground, while the fingertips of the other tapped lightly and rhythmically on the desk.

She completely ignored the math teacher's endless and spitting teaching at the podium, and was only thinking about how to turn the situation around and find fault with Fūya Zero.

Just like that, when school was almost over——

"Olga, do you want to go out and play with Xiaolan and me later? Sera-san will come too!"

While Olga was thinking, Suzuki Sonoko's smiling face suddenly appeared in her sight, very close to her, with some unconcealable expectation in her eyes.

"Olga-san and Sera-san have known each other since childhood and both grew up in America. They must have a lot in common! Come on, come with us, okay?"

Olga knew that Suzuki Sonoko was probably planning something interesting and trying to trick people into joining her. Olga had never had any interest in this.

"Sorry, I have something to do after school-"

"Oh? Is there something going on at home again?" Masumi Sera, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said something unclear.

He's trying to find out about the organization again. Boring.

Olga was just about to give her a casual perfunctory reply and leave, but she heard Shiliang pulling Xiaolan aside and saying:

"Let's go to that Poirot Cafe today! It's the one downstairs from your dad's detective agency! There's a waiter there who's super-handsome!"

Looking at Suzuki Sonoko's excited expression, Olga suddenly thought of something. Then, her attitude changed 180 degrees.

She looked at Sera Masumi with a smile: "I suddenly remembered that things at home are not that urgent. If Sera-chan, you really want me to go——"

As Sera Masumi's eyes widened in surprise, Olga continued to talk nonsense.

"Then, for Sera-chan's sake, I'll go too."

“Eh!?”

Before the dumbstruck Sera Masumi could react, Suzuki Sonoko came over, hands on her hips, leaned over to look at Olga, then at Sera Masumi, then put her hand on her chin, pretending to be serious and showing a look of understanding. She deliberately lowered her voice, as if imitating Maori Kogoro:

"That's right, I can't tell normally, but I didn't expect Olga and Sera-chan to have such a good relationship! Or is it——"

Suzuki Sonoko approached Olga mysteriously, shielding her eyes with one hand, and then she whispered to Olga:

"Did you suddenly change your mind because you heard me say there's a handsome waiter at the Poirot Cafe?"

Seeing Olga smiling but not intending to refute, Suzuki Sonoko was really surprised this time: "I didn't expect you to be like this, Olga!"

In response, Olga simply said lightly, "Everyone loves beauty, so it's normal to be curious about handsome guys, right? Besides, I'm mainly here to accompany Sera-chan."

Olga admitted so frankly that she wanted to see the handsome guy that Suzuki Sonoko hesitated for a moment - did she really want to see the handsome guy? Or - she couldn't help but look at Sera Masumi, looking him up and down.

Well, maybe Olga really agreed for Sera Masumi, even though they don’t seem to be very familiar with each other... But what if they just didn’t show it?

Sera Masumi naturally guessed what Suzuki Sonoko was imagining. She opened her mouth, but ultimately gave up on explaining. She and Olga weren't close at all! They even seemed to have a grudge against each other...but it was hard to explain anything related to the organization to Suzuki Sonoko.

On the way to Café Poirot, Sera Masumi couldn't help but secretly glance over at Olga. It was clearly Olga who suddenly changed her mind and decided to go to Café Poirot, but she had to use her as an excuse and lied without blinking. How shameless!

*

Soon, they arrived at the door of Poirot Cafe and happened to meet Conan who had just returned from school and was about to go upstairs to the detective agency.

Of course, this "coincidentally" is just Conan's own statement. Whether you believe it or not depends entirely on your IQ.

In fact, Conan received a text message from Sera after school, telling Conan that Olga would go to Poirot Cafe with them after school. This "they" obviously also included Mao Lilan.

Although this message seems a bit nonsensical, and even after Conan knew that Sera Masumi was Akai Shuichi's biological sister, he still kept pretending to be stupid in front of Sera Masumi. But!

Conan still couldn't leave Olga, the dangerous person, alone with Mouri Ran and the others.

What? You said Mr. Amuro was there, so nothing would happen?

Conan thought so at first. However, after reviewing the situation on the way home from school, he felt that something was wrong.

As for what exactly was wrong? Conan couldn't put his finger on it. It was just wrong.

So, even though elementary school students finish school much earlier than high school students, Conan still deliberately hid in a corner away from the Poirot Cafe until he saw the figures of Xiaolan and her group. Then he walked over here, pretending that he had just finished school and that his encounter with Ran Mouri and the others was just a coincidence.

The only two people who could see through Conan were probably Sera Masumi and Olga. After all, who would have thought that a primary school student could be so creative as to create a chance encounter? Of the two, Sera Masumi was staring at Conan every second, so she definitely wouldn't expose him.

As for Olga?

Conan accepted Ran's invitation to "Let's go to Poirot Cafe together," while thinking with a half-mooned look in his eyes. Olga probably didn't bother to expose his little tricks if there was nothing to watch.

Accompanied by the crisp sound of the wind chimes hanging on the door, the group walked into the Poirot Cafe and found an empty table to sit down.

Almost as soon as she sat down, Suzuki Sonoko began to look around for the handsome clerk she had been waiting for. She also pulled Xiaolan: "Xiaolan, where is Mr. Amuro?"

This made Mao Lilan, who was standing by, feel embarrassed. Her ears turned red and she lowered her voice: "Sonoko! Keep your voice down!"

Promise her that you won't make it seem like they're here just to be crazy about it, okay?

Meanwhile, Conan kept his crescent-eyed expression, his mouth twitching. He was already very used to Suzuki Sonoko's nymphomaniac nature. But speaking of it——

As the girls chatted, Conan suddenly looked at Olga. She and Bourbon must be familiar with each other, right? During the last tennis incident, they had pretended not to know each other, and had nearly fooled him. So what about this time? Would they continue to play it off?

"Excuse me, what could you guys order?"

It was Xiao Zi who came to order. She seemed to have heard the conversation between Suzuki Sonoko and Xiaolan. She smiled and said with a hint of sarcasm,

"If you're looking for Mr. Amuro, he recently took a phone call and left in a hurry. I guess we'll have to wait—"

Suddenly, there was the sound of wind chimes behind him. Xiao Zi turned around and saw: "Ah, Mr. Amuro is back!"

Suzuki Sonoko almost immediately looked in the direction Xiao Zi was looking, and her eyes lit up.

Conan on the side quickly looked at Furuya Rei and then at Olga.

Well, one of them just smiled professionally at them, put on his apron again, and started busying himself behind the kitchen sink. Olga, on the other hand, sat on the sofa playing with her phone, not even looking up from beginning to end.

These two people are still pretending not to know each other...

With Xiaozi's help, they ordered their meals. Ran, Sonoko, and Sera ordered a variety of lattes, and Ran ordered a cup of hot milk for Conan. When Olga ordered her meal:

"An iced Americano, dark roast, please."

"Huh? Iced Americano is super bitter! And it has to be dark roasted?!"

Amidst Suzuki Sonoko's exclamation, Conan noticed that Furuya Rei, who had been busy behind the kitchen counter, suddenly raised his head and glanced at them. This was right after Olga said the words "Iced Americano." Although it seemed like a casual glance.

What's going on? Is it unusual for Olga, an American, to drink iced Americano? Why is even Mr. Amuro, who knows her well, surprised?

No, not exactly like surprise...

Conan looked left and right, and began to speculate in his mind. He was actually quite a gossipy person. He couldn't participate in the girls' conversation and had no interest in it, so he began to secretly speculate on the gossip of the organization members.

A few minutes later, Rei Furuya brought over the drinks they ordered.

A cup of hot milk was placed in front of Conan. Conan picked up the cup resignedly, bit the straw and began to drink the milk. At least drinking more milk might help him grow faster...

Conan was thinking this with a smile on his face when he saw Toru Amuro placing those colorful and seemingly unrefined lattes in front of Ran, Sonoko, Sera, and the others. Coffee these days is like milk tea, starting to become weird.

Then,

Conan paused while drinking the milk. He saw with his own eyes that Furuya Rei placed a cup of hot milk exactly like the one in his hand in front of Olga.

Isn't that an iced Americano? A dark roast version.

Apparently, Olga had the same doubt. At least she pretended to have the same doubt.

Olga finally looked up from her phone: "I remember I ordered an iced Americano?"

For a moment, several people looked at Furuya Rei with doubtful eyes. However, Furuya Rei was looking at Olga.

Xiao Zi behind the counter thought that Furuya Rei had misremembered the drink, and since he hadn't said anything, he quickly tried to smooth things over. But then, Furuya Rei finally spoke, with a serious and helpless tone:

"Milk is better for the body." Olga is not suitable for stimulating drinks like coffee due to heart problems.

But no one else knew about Olga's heart problem, not even Conan. From everyone else's perspective, the two people didn't even know each other, just meeting for the first time. So, Furuya Rei's words seemed a bit baffling to the others.

but……

Conan looked at Furuya Rei, then at Olga. Only then did he feel that these two people knew each other. Then,

"I want coffee," Olga repeated. Conan didn't know if it was an illusion, but he even felt that this sentence had a hint of anger.

It seems that these two people are indeed quite familiar with each other?

"You can only drink milk." With that, Rei Furuya left with no room for doubt, then turned and left, leaving Olga alone, staring blankly at the milk.

Now, Conan was finally sure that the two were indeed familiar with each other. In fact... Conan was quite surprised to realize that Olga, who had always been lawless, could not do anything to Mr. Amuro.

How dare he control Olga like this!

But soon, Conan found that he was still too naive.

Before Rei Furuya turned around and took two steps away, Olga, who was originally staring at the milk with an unhappy look on her face, suddenly changed her expression. She held her chin with one hand, showing an expression as if she was about to play a prank, and looked up at Rei Furuya's back. She first narrowed her eyes dangerously, and then raised the corners of her mouth.

She lowered her voice a little, and her tone became sticky:

"Suuure, Daddy... but only if you watch me finish every drop."

"Poof! Cough cough cough!" Conan spat out a mouthful of hot milk.

"Ah! Conan, are you okay?" Xiaolan immediately took out a tissue and handed it over.

"I, I'm fine, Sister Xiaolan, hahaha, ha..."

Conan took the tissue from Ran and even though his face turned red from choking, he still turned around to see Rei Furuya's reaction. He was so curious!

Sure enough, Fūya Rei's back just stood there in a daze, frozen in place.

Conan blushed, felt embarrassed, and was suddenly filled with pride. Ha! It turns out Mr. Amuro also gets shy after being teased! Surely he's never experienced being humiliated in public before?

It has to be Olga. Conan coughed softly because he was choking, and secretly glanced at Olga.

She laughed out loud, doubled over. It was the first time Conan had seen her laugh so happily. It was a sense of relief, like a prank had been accomplished.

"Alright then,"

Olga had laughed enough, and raised an eyebrow at the stiff back of Furuya Rei, and put on a well-behaved and innocent tone, which was completely different from the evil smile on her face.

"I'll be a good girl and finish all my milk."

Then, she actually picked up the glass of milk in front of her, which she seemed to dislike very much, and toasted it to the air in the direction of Furuya Rei. Then, she drank it all in one gulp.

On the side, when Mouri Ran and Suzuki Sonoko were still unaware of the truth, Conan and Sera Masumi, two almost native English speakers, had already blushed.

Conan choked again. He looked down at the milk in his hand and suddenly... couldn't drink it anymore.

Somehow, Conan, with his face flushed and his head lowered, had the first thought that Mr. Amuro was molested in public and then died socially.

Although the only people present who could understand this teasing, besides the two parties involved, were Conan and Sera...

The second thought was - Conan also suddenly remembered - before Furuya Rei said that he was married. Conan originally thought that Furuya Rei was lying to him, but now think about it...

Conan secretly looked up at Olga, who had a sly smile on her face. In front of her was an empty milk cup. Suddenly, Conan felt that he had discovered the truth. Then, he was even more shocked!

Is this reasonable?

This is unreasonable!

In the end, Rei Furuya almost fled in panic.

Although he appeared calm and composed, Conan, with his meticulous observation skills as a detective, was certain that Mr. Amuro had indeed fled! Evidence included: his walking speed was faster than usual, and his head was lowered at a greater angle than usual, among other things.

Tsk tsk tsk. Conan's crescent eyes revealed an expression of "knowing everything" and he was amazed in his heart.

Then, in response to Ran's inexplicable questioning, Conan and Sera, in a rare and unanimous manner, gave a slapstick explanation. Some things are simply not suitable for pure-hearted children to hear.

Suzuki Sonoko could clearly feel that Conan and Sera were just trying to fool her and Xiaolan, but since she really couldn't get any answers, she simply stopped asking.

"What an unlovable little brat! He looks exactly like your distant relative."

Sonoko crossed her arms and squinted her eyes while complaining about Conan. Obviously, the distant relative of Conan she was referring to was Kudo Shinichi.

Upon hearing this, Sera Masumi looked at Conan with a hint of sarcasm. But Conan, as usual, played dumb.

Fortunately, Suzuki Sonoko is a carefree person and quickly jumped to the next topic:

"Speaking of which—" She clenched her fists, stood up slightly and leaned forward, her eyes sparkling with obvious excitement, "Let's form a high school girl band!"

In return, Sera Masumi and Mao Lilan exclaimed, "Huh?"

That's right, getting her friends to form a girl band was Suzuki Sonoko's original purpose for asking Olga and the others out after school. She'd seen a movie the night before, though she couldn't recall the exact plot. She only remembered the movie about a high school girl band that was incredibly cute! Ever since then, she's been fascinated by it.

Conan had long wanted to take the opportunity to change the subject, so he deliberately followed Suzuki Sonoko's words and asked her: "So, what instrument is Sonoko-sister going to play?"

"Of course I play the drums! The drummer in the movie looks just like me! So cool!"

Yuanzi had obviously thought about it long ago, and her face was full of confidence.

"Besides, I'm a super good Taiko drummer!"

Conan silently picked up the cup in front of him, turned his head away with a half-moon glare, and just as he was about to drink some water to calm his nerves, he suddenly realized that the cup contained milk.

Although he himself has no opinion on milk, but...

Conan still couldn't bring himself to drink it, and silently put the cup back on the table. Then, he secretly glanced at Olga who was sitting opposite him, looking at her phone.

Come to think of it, this guy must be good at playing musical instruments. Conan still remembers the scene of her playing the violin on the set when she was a child. He has to admit that even now, when he thinks about it, he still feels shocked.

There is indeed an insurmountable gap between geniuses and ordinary people.

But why doesn't she play the violin now? Conan vaguely remembered that Olga's real identity - Olga Chris - is currently a singer.

On the side, Suzuki Sonoko talked about bass again, saying that Xiaolan has long straight black hair, very similar to the bassist in the movie, and should also become a bassist.

But Xiaolan can't play the bass at all.

Conan interrupted somewhat speechlessly: "Sister Xiaolan should be good at playing the piano. I think she would be a keyboard player."

Although Conan doesn't think Suzuki Sonoko's band can be successful...

Sera Masumi suddenly said, "I think I'll play the bass. My brother's friend taught me a little before."

Then she looked at Olga meaningfully: "Olga, you know that too, right? You were there at the time."

Conan noticed that Furuya Rei behind the sink was secretly watching this side.

It's probably a public security habit, Conan thought to himself. He needs to pay attention to everything around him. And Olga's here too. It's only natural for him to pay a little more attention.

Olga, however, continued to scroll through her phone with her head down. Facing Sera Masumi's somewhat sinister and provocative words, she simply replied lightly, "Really? But you must be mistaken. I wasn't there."

Sera Masumi gritted her teeth at Olga's nonchalant attitude. She'd previously admitted, with such gusto, that they'd met on the platform, so how could she now lie and claim they hadn't?

Even though Sera Masumi was furious, she couldn't do anything about Olga. Suzuki Sonoko didn't notice their back-and-forth rivalry. So, with Suzuki Sonoko's enthusiastic shouting, the bassist position was decided, and Sera Masumi took it.

Conan listened to the conversation between Sera Masumi and Olga, and while he was curious about their past, he couldn't help but secretly complain in his heart. The moment he raised his head, he accidentally met Olga's eyes.

Then, Conan realized that Olga was thinking the same thing as him - it didn't really matter whether there was a bassist in this kind of amateur band. After all... most people couldn't hear, or rather, couldn't hear the bass clearly, hahaha!

It's another day of insulting Bess.

When Conan looked away, he saw Suzuki Sonoko suddenly took out another flyer, obviously she had prepared it.

He looked at the advertisement content - the Beika Town New Year's Eve Countdown Performance Competition is recruiting participants!

Suzuki Sonoko was still excitedly talking about her plans to enter the acting competition at the end of the year and win it all. Meanwhile, Conan...his eyes remained half-mooned, a drop of sweat trickling down his forehead.

At this moment, Sera Masumi suddenly said, "Olga is also good at musical instruments, right? Why don't you join us?"

After she said that, Suzuki Sonoko became confused: "No, no, Olga is good at singing, right?"

When Jirokichi Suzuki held the Heart of the Forest exhibition, he introduced Olga as a "famous talented singer in the classical music world."

As if prepared, Sera Masumi suddenly pulled out his phone and pointed it towards the others. On the screen…was a picture of a red-haired girl playing the violin on a stage.

The little girl, who looked about seven years old, looked exactly like Olga now, almost a larger version of her. She seemed to be participating in a competition.

After the song ended, seeing the surprised expressions of others, including Conan, and successfully attracting Olga's expressionless gaze, Sera Masumi put away her phone with satisfaction.

"But the band doesn't really need a violinist."

Conan suddenly realized something——

Akai Shuichi didn't share the existing information with Sera Masumi, so until now, Sera Masumi is still trying to figure out whether Olga is a member of the organization! That's why she went to the trouble of finding her old videos...

Conan covered his forehead in silence. What was going on with the Akai family? How could they act even less familiar with each other than Toru Amuro and Olga, who had been deliberately pretending to be?

At some point, Furuya Rei had also approached their table. Conan didn't miss the fleeting frown on his face. Although it wasn't visible on his face, Conan could sense that Furuya Rei seemed to be on high alert, on guard against something.

So, was there really some hidden reason behind Olga giving up the violin?

The atmosphere seemed to become tense.

At that moment, Sonoko's loud cry unexpectedly broke the cooling atmosphere. She was completely clueless, not even very good at reading the air. She just turned around excitedly and shook Olga's hand:

"Then let Olga be the guitarist! After all, for someone like Olga who already knows how to play an instrument, she'll be able to learn the guitar quickly with just a little practice!"

Obviously, she really thought so.

Before Olga could pull her hand out of Suzuki Sonoko's and reject this incredibly stupid proposal, a voice with obvious sarcasm suddenly came from the table on the other side of them:

"You say guitar is easy, then try playing it."

A man wearing sunglasses and dyed yellow hair stood up from his chair, actually picked up his guitar and equipment that were placed beside him, and started to adjust them.

“I’ll connect it to a portable speaker and play it directly to get the sound.”

"Here." He handed the tuned guitar to Suzuki Sonoko.

At this point, Suzuki Sonoko finally felt embarrassed. A drop of cold sweat ran down her forehead, and she began to stutter: "This, this is not good..."

She doesn't play any musical instrument at all!

The man chuckled and turned to Olga who was sitting next to him.

"Would you like to give it a try, little sister? You'll learn it pretty quickly with a little practice, right?"

The air suddenly fell silent. Olga didn't respond, as if she hadn't even heard the man speak. She sat on the sofa, legs crossed, playing with her phone. There was no particular expression on her face, only occasional sounds like "double kill" coming from her phone.

Conan suddenly had a bad feeling. Even though Olga hadn't made any move yet, this feeling stemmed from his natural detective sense of smell, like a shark's keen sense of blood.

Just as Conan was sweating profusely, Fūya Rei, who had been on guard, suddenly stepped forward and took the guitar.

"Indeed, you only need to study briefly and you can master it quickly."

As he spoke, he casually plucked the strings, and a melody poured out from his fingers. That seemingly casual movement contained incredibly precise control and technique, creating a smooth, flowing sound that was melodious to the ears.

Immediately, those who had been mocking him shut their mouths and eyes widened. At least their piano skills were definitely not as good as Furuya Rei's.

But they are professionals! And Furuya Rei... looks like just an ordinary coffee shop clerk!

Furiya Rei returned the guitar and even asked with a smile, "Really?"

The provocative man took the guitar in a daze, nodding his head. Then, carrying his guitar on his back, he and his companions left the Poirot Café in disgrace.

Watching those figures disappear outside the Poirot Café, Furuya Rei finally breathed a sigh of relief. He was really a little scared just now - afraid that these ignorant guys would be killed by Olga tonight.

Fortunately... Furuya Rei turned around and looked at Olga quietly. Now, she should be too lazy to kill those people, right?

However, there is still one thing that needs to be resolved -

Suzuki Sonoko also breathed a sigh of relief, and then quickly regained her spirits: "Why don't we rent a recording studio and start practicing now!"

She suggested this enthusiastically, then looked at Furuya Rei and said, "How about Mr. Amuro join us? You can teach Olga to play guitar!"

That's right. This was another thing that Rei Furuya was worried about. The guitar was also an instrument that required the flexibility of the left hand, and Olga—

Actually, Olga could play the guitar, and she was quite good at it. Rei Furuya had taught her.

Suzuki Sonoko was indeed bringing up things that were not relevant to the topic. Now, Furuya Rei was already starting to worry about whether Suzuki Sonoko would be killed tonight.

Conan, who had been watching silently from the side, finally realized something. Olga had stopped playing the violin and turned to vocal music. It seemed that... there was something wrong with her left hand. And judging by Mr. Amuro's attitude, Olga herself must be very concerned about this matter.

not good!

Obviously, Conan also realized: Sonoko is in danger!

But Suzuki Sonoko was still winking at Olga, thinking it was inconspicuous. Her English wasn't great, but it wasn't bad either, so she had taken the few words Olga had said to Furuya Rei literally.

But now, Suzuki Sonoko suddenly had a flash of insight, as if she had grasped something. Without even knowing that Olga and Rei Furuya were already close, she presumptuously assumed Olga wanted to pursue Rei Furuya. And her proposal was precisely that, presumptuously creating an opportunity for Olga.

All I can say is that the intention was good, but the execution was bad.

Olga finally raised her head from her phone. Suddenly, a smile appeared on her expressionless face.

"OK."

She said so.

Furuya Rei opened his mouth, but couldn't refute it. He had a hunch that something was wrong. After that incident, Olga really cared about the word "instrument." But since Olga had agreed, Furuya Rei had to go along. Otherwise...

What if someone tries to commit suicide in front of Olga again?

*

Unfortunately, or perhaps fortunately, when they arrived at the nearby rental recording studios, every one of them was full and they had to wait another hour for a vacancy.

With the attitude that they were already here, the group finally decided to rent musical instruments and do some simple practice in the rest area in the basement.

During the performance, Masumi Sera demonstrated how to play bass scales. This was probably the moment when ordinary people could hear the bass most clearly.

Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko almost immediately applauded out of respect: "Sera, you are amazing!"

At this moment, Sera Masumi finally looked like someone of her age. She scratched her hair shyly and said, "No, I was just playing the basic scales. But..."

She changed the subject and suddenly looked at Furuya Rei again, her eyes sharp.

"That's probably all my brother's friend taught me."

While keeping an eye on Olga, who was playing a game on her phone, he casually asked, "So, do you remember the man who taught you to play bass? What did he look like?"

He knew who Sera Masumi was talking about—Morofushi Kagemitsu. But...

Didn't Akai Shuichi pass on the information to his sister? Why is his sister still trying to figure out his identity?

"I have a vague impression. But," Sera Masumi, on the other end, thought she had found a loophole in Furuya Rei's words, her eyes gleaming with excitement as if the truth was within reach, "--how did you know that friend was a man?"

Fūya Rei replied perfunctorily, "I vaguely guessed it."

It's too obvious to be perfunctory.

What Furuya Rei was actually concerned about was another point - what Sera Masumi mentioned before - Olga was also present at that time.

Sure enough, he then heard Sera Masumi say to Olga in a meaningful tone:

"At that time, I also met a little girl who called herself Naraku. She looked a lot like Olga. No, I should say it was Olga, haha, but - Olga seems to have forgotten about it."

Olga was still playing games and ignored her.

As for Rei Furuya? He had completely understood what was going on. At that time, he was on a mission for the organization with Keimitsu Morobushi and Shuichi Akai, and Olga must have been following him.

As for the fact that Olga might have been following him at that time... Furuya Rei had actually accepted it well. After all, he had experienced even more exaggerated things before. However...

Did she already know his undercover identity from that time?

Thinking of this, Furuya Rei couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart. After that, he had been trying to deceive Olga.

Then, under the guidance of Rei Furuya, the few of them finally changed the topic and decided on the song they were going to play - "Dandy Lion" by Yoko Okino.

So, Furuya Rei naturally asked the question he had been planning for a long time: "So, who will be the lead singer?"

Now, several girls began to shirk their responsibilities, feeling a bit embarrassed. This song by Yoko Okino was indeed difficult to sing, and they lacked the confidence to do so.

While she was making excuses, Suzuki Sonoko suddenly thought of something: "Why don't we let Olga be the lead singer? Olga is really good at singing, right?"

Olga's game wasn't even finished yet when Sera Masumi, who was standing beside her, spoke up first: "But Olga is in charge of the guitar, right?"

Obviously, she did it on purpose. Sera Masumi also realized that there might be some reason behind Olga no longer playing the violin. She was just testing and provoking Olga.

But then Furiya Rei suddenly said, "Rather than learning guitar right now, it would be better to focus on an area you are more proficient in."

It was as if he was genuinely thinking about the band: "This way, future performances will be even more exciting, right?"

"Tian Ji's horse racing...right?" Mao Lilan thought about it and said this idiom.

Furiya Rei smiled at her. Then, the group decisively decided that Olga would be the lead singer. They completely ignored the fact that Olga hadn't yet agreed to join this band that clearly had no future.

After all, she agreed to come to the recording studio together. To a normal person, that would be considered an agreement.

It was at this moment that Olga finally finished a game and took a moment to look away from her phone. Regarding her assignment as lead vocalist, she simply glanced meaningfully at Furuya Rei but didn't raise any objections.

Lingling, are you really thinking about me, or are you afraid that I might do something you don't want to see? Ever since we were at the Poirot Cafe, you've been keeping a close watch on me.

What a pity, I'm just a born bad guy. Olga curled her lips and put her phone back into her pocket.

Just as Suzuki Sonoko was clamoring to start naming the band, a female scream suddenly came from behind her.

Furuya Rei, Sera Masumi, and Conan all changed their expressions and immediately rushed towards the direction of the scream. They all knew what this meant.

Olga knew this, of course. In fact, the moment she saw Conan, she was wondering if there would be a murder at the Poirot Café today. Later, when they arrived at the rental recording studio, Olga began to wonder again—perhaps the murder would happen in the studio?

Now that the murder had occurred, Olga unexpectedly felt a rare sense of closure.

She ignored the terrified faces of Mouri Ran and Suzuki Sonoko, reminded them not to forget to call the police, and then began to look at the three suspects beside her.

Apparently, this is a girl band with bad relationships.

The deceased, Yamaji Hagie, was the band's drummer and leader. She was overweight, had a round face, wore round-framed glasses, had short black hair, a yellow knitted hat, and a blue top. She had Yoshikawa lines on her neck, clearly indicating she had been strangled.

And the three suspects—

Olga observed their expressions and movements when Conan questioned them, and soon she had the answer in her mind. Most prisoners who had not received training would easily reveal their flaws.

The police arrived within five minutes. They were old acquaintances, Megure Jusan and Takagi Wataru.

In the chaos, Olga had stood behind Conan without anyone noticing. Then, when no one was paying attention, she bent down and, while Conan was thinking, whispered a spoiler in a low but malicious voice:

"The criminal is the keyboard player, his name is... Kogure Rumi, right?"

Then, Conan turned his head and looked at him with fear.

Olga smiled and stood up straight.

Giving Conan a spoiler about the culprit is like circling the murderer in bold at the very beginning of a detective comic book in the library. Mystery enthusiasts who see this kind of book usually have very funny expressions, just like Conan hearing the spoiler.

Of course, the case was quickly solved. Even without Olga spoiling the story, with two detectives, Conan and Masumi Sera, and a public security officer, Rei Furuya, present, it was hard not to see the case being solved.

When the prisoner was being warned and taken away by Inspector Megure and Takagi with tears of regret in his eyes, Olga and her group were standing at the counter next to the first floor door.

By chance, two passers-by came in at this time, one of them was carrying a guitar case

Xiaolan noticed that Sera Masumi looked at the two passersby with a strange look in his eyes: "What's wrong, Sera?"

Yuanzi also came over and stared at the backs of the two passers-by: "Are those two people suspicious?"

Shiliang came back to his senses and laughed, "No, it's just that - whenever I see someone carrying a guitar case, I can't help but think of four years ago. That day, I was standing on the platform opposite the station with Xiu brother carrying a guitar case on his back."

"I was shocked because I always thought he went to the United States, and I had never seen Xiu Ge play music before. At that time, I had just finished watching a movie with my friends and was about to go home, but I jumped on the tram that Xiu Ge was taking without permission because I wanted to hear Xiu Ge play guitar no matter what."

"And then what?"

Under Suzuki Sonoko's questioning, Sera Masumi continued with a somewhat dejected look in his eyes:

"Later, after changing several trains, I was finally caught by Brother Xiu on the platform at the station. He aggressively urged me to go home, but I said I had no money and didn't know how to get home. So he said he would buy me a ticket and told me to wait, then left me on the platform and left. Actually, I was already in junior high school at the time, I had money on me, and I knew how to get home. But I guess to Brother Xiu, I was probably just a child."

Xiaolan was a little confused: "Then, did you wait there like he asked?"

"Yes," Sera Masumi said with a smile, "I was waiting so long that I almost cried. But the man who was traveling with Xiu-nii at that time asked me if I liked music. After saying that, he pulled out a bass from his bag and started teaching me how to play, although it was just basic scales."

Xiaolan said, "Hey!" "Then the person you said taught you to play the bass is—"

Sera Masumi nodded and said, "Yes, but I only taught you for about ten minutes."

Sonoko asked curiously, "So that person is your brother's music enthusiast?"

"I'm not sure about that." Despite saying this, Sera Masumi hinted, "The bag the guy used to hold the bass was clearly a soft one, but after he took out the bass, the bag didn't deform and still stood upright. So, maybe the bass was just a cover, and there were actually other hard objects inside."

Conan realized almost immediately that the bag must have contained a rifle. Conan was almost certain that at that time, Sera Masumi had encountered three members of the organization who were on a mission. Oh, and there was also Olga who was following them.

Of course, except for the man who taught her to play bass, the other two members of the organization, Lei and Bourbon, are undercover. Conan guessed that the man who taught Sera to play bass was also an undercover and had a close relationship with Mr. Amuro.

"Sister Shiliang, did you ask his name at that time?"

"No, I didn't ask his name. But there was another person coming to the platform, and the man walking with them called him this," she looked at Furuya Rei meaningfully, "called him - Scotch (Scottish)

Ran and Sonoko were confused: "Scotch? Is he a foreigner?"

Shira shrugged. "He's Japanese no matter how you look at him, so that's probably just a nickname. But the man who called him, although he had his hat pulled down so low that I couldn't see his face clearly, I always felt that they were very similar—"

She said to Furuya Rei with an almost certain tone: "Mr. Amuro, he looks a lot like you."

But before Furuya Rei could say anything, Olga, who had been playing with her phone silently, suddenly spoke up:

"Oh, I remember now."

She suddenly said this, attracting everyone's attention. Conan could clearly see the malice hidden beneath her innocent expression of sudden enlightenment.

"We did meet at that time."

Olga ignored the surprised expression on Sera Masumi's face and continued to smile and said to herself, "Thanks to you, I remembered something that really happened."

Under the curious expressions of Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko, Olga seemed to catch a glimpse of a flash of pink outside the glass door. She withdrew her gaze and spoke slowly, word by word, with extraordinary clarity:

"There was a guy named Xiaohong, an FBI agent. To infiltrate a criminal organization, he broke up with his FBI girlfriend. Then, seamlessly, he deceived a female member of a criminal organization."

As she spoke, Olga looked at Sera Masumi and said in a meaningful tone:

"Guess what? That female member is actually Xiaohong's cousin."

Although they didn't understand how this story related to what they were just discussing, Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko pricked up their ears. After all, the beginning of this story was so melodramatic! Melodrama is a human hobby that cannot be escaped.

Except for Ran Mouri and Sonoko Suzuki, everyone realized who Olga was talking about almost the moment she opened her mouth - what Xiaohong, it was obviously Shuichi Akai!

Sera Masumi had never heard of these things before, and she wasn't sure if Olga was deliberately slandering Akai Shuichi. But because they were in public, she just frowned.

Conan, who knew a little about the situation, was hearing this for the first time. He was also secretly trying to determine if what Olga said was true.

Although this guy always lied without blinking, and his acting was so good that he couldn't tell, but after reasoning and judging based on logic and reality, Conan despairedly discovered that this bloody story seemed to be true! The female member of the organization, that is, Xiaohong's, ah no, Akai Shuichi's cousin, should be Miyano Akemi!

No, wait!?

Conan suddenly realized something else - in that case, isn't Huibara also Akai Shuichi's cousin?!

Why do they both act like they don't know anything about this?

Conan was once again shocked by the Akai family's generosity.

Then, Olga told a touching love story. Conan watched with his own eyes as she deceived two innocent high school girls, Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko, into tears.

"And then?" Suzuki Sonoko wiped her tears with the back of her hand and asked.

Olga tilted her head and smiled innocently, "And then? My cousin died taking a bullet for Xiaohong, and Xiaohong cut her long hair."

Amidst the helpless expressions of Rei Furuya, the gradual numbness of Conan, the increasing shock and anger of Masumi Sera, and the abused expressions of Ran Mouri and Sonoko Suzuki, Olga spread her hands as if nothing had happened and made the following summary:

"Anyway, it's all Xiaohong's fault."

Mao Lilan wiped the corners of her eyes: "B-but Xiao Hong also had no choice but to do the right thing, right...?"

Olga asked lightly, "He cheated on a woman just to do the right thing? What's more, this woman is his cousin."

Amid the increasingly tangled eyebrows of Sera Masumi, the smile on Olga's face became more genuine. She deliberately omitted a key condition - when Akai Shuichi first approached Miyano Akemi, he didn't know that she was his cousin.

However, Olga told this story just to make Sera Masumi unhappy.

She hated it most when someone mentioned Morifushi Keimitsu or Akai Shuichi in front of her or Lingling. Of course, the reasons were different. As for Morifushi Keimitsu, Olga wanted to hide some secrets from Lingling. As for Akai Shuichi——

It's pure disgust.

This stupid Sera Masumi actually keeps mentioning these two people at the same time, and tries to test them in a self-righteous way, and keeps holding on to them. It's really annoying.

Want excitement? Give her some.

Of course, there are risks in Olga's actions. For example, Olga is indirectly admitting to Sera Masumi and her MI6 mother that she is a member of the organization.

And then there is——

Olga looked out the door. This time, she was absolutely certain she saw someone with pink hair. Even though it was only for a moment, but...

When Olga came back to her senses, she met Furuya Rei's gaze. He had obviously seen the pink-haired man, but he was not sure of his identity. So,

Olga raised the corners of her lips.

The person who had been eavesdropping must have heard what she just said, right?

Will you feel heartbroken and uncomfortable?

But you must feel uncomfortable, Shuichi Akai.
