Seven years ago, timeline.
Fujiwara Yu was diligently searching for the Child of Destiny named "Edogawa Conan," believing that only by finding him could he gain permanent residency in...
They took a bus to a cat cafe in Uenocho, Taito Ward. Knowing that her younger sister Shiho liked animals, Akemi Miyano chose that place as the meeting place. This was also the first cat cafe in Tokyo. She had never been there before and only heard about it at school.
Miyano Akemi chose to sit in the single seat near the back door. Before sitting down, she deliberately glanced at the area behind her. Sure enough, she could vaguely see a motorcycle with a retro color scheme in the corner in the distance. She knew who it was without thinking.
Because just a few days ago, when she was buying snacks in the supermarket, she heard people around her talking about a nice-looking motorcycle on the street. She remembered that Fujiwara-kun once told her that after graduation he would not choose to buy a car but a handsome motorcycle, and even explained why he fell in love with motorcycles... It was because of a handsome female traffic police named Akihara Chisuga, who was very cool when riding a motorcycle, so he fell in love with motorcycles.
Normally boys would be attracted to beautiful women riding motorcycles, but only Fujiwara Yu, who is a single-celled organism in some aspects, would only pay attention to motorcycles.
Fujiwara Yu, who covered himself tightly with a motorcycle helmet, had no idea that his actions had been discovered by the person he was tracking. He kept a reasonable distance from her. The bus route would not change anyway, so as long as she didn't change buses, she would eventually know where her destination was.
Within ten minutes, he received an email from White, telling him that the target vehicle carrying Miyano Shiho had entered Keiyo Road.
His deduction was correct that they could successfully enter the Tokyo city area through the Keiyo Road.
Fujiwara Yuu followed the bus slowly until it stopped at the Ueno Zoo stop. Then he lowered his head to fiddle with the GPS navigation system, adjusting the map to see if there were any coffee shops nearby.
Ueno Cat Cafe, 2-14-18 Uenocho, seems to be this one.
He parked his motorcycle in the paid parking lot, took the receipt indicating the parking time, and walked towards the Kamino Cat Cafe. Little did he know that from across the street, he noticed that Miyano Akemi, standing in front of the cafe, was actually talking to an unidentified boy, and her expression looked quite happy.
His fingers retracted inward as if by reflex, completely ignoring the parking ticket that he had crumpled into a ball.
Fujiwara Yuu stared with his half-moon eyes wide open without noticing the resentful aura emanating from him, and his gaze was fixed directly on the boy with his back to her, so much so that the guy with a crew cut who was talking to Miyano Akemi shuddered.
"Mr. Yoshikawa, are you feeling unwell?" Miyano Akemi noticed the goose bumps on the other person's arms and asked with concern.
The boy called Yoshikawa waved his hand. He didn't know why he felt a chill and said with a wry smile:
"I'm not feeling unwell, I just suddenly felt a chill. Maybe my mom is cursing me for buying people away. Then, Saito-san, I'll be leaving now. Bye!"
Miyano Akemi glanced at Fujiwara Yuu, who was standing across the street kicking stones with his head down. He was clearly an agent, but he didn't bother to disguise himself. Did he really think he wasn't recognized? How "stupid" he really was.
But today he'd dyed his hair back to black and was wearing black-framed glasses... Was he in disguise? But wouldn't this look make him more recognizable to those who knew him?
Without giving it much thought, Akemi Miyano turned around and pushed open the door of the cat cafe. She looked at the thirty or so cats inside who were looking at her after hearing the sound of the wind chimes. She thought that Shiho would definitely like it when she came.
After seeing Akemi Miyano enter the coffee shop, Fujiwara Yu did not rush in, but stood at the intersection smoking and waiting. Only when the familiar black Bentley appeared in his sight did he walk slowly into the store.
As soon as he opened the door of the shop, he felt something coming towards him. Muscle memory made Fujiwara Yuu take a big step back with his back almost touching the edge of the glass door. But when he looked down, he found it was a white ragdoll cat.
Why are there cats in a cafe? Wait…isn’t the name supposed to mean cats, but a cafe with lots of cats?
Fujiwara Yu looked forward and found that cats of different breeds, fur colors and sizes were everywhere. There was even a cute orange Japanese rural cat on the table in front of Miyano Akemi. If you didn't know its size, you would think it was a piglet.
He quickly withdrew his gaze and lowered the brim of his fisherman's hat. After ordering some random things, he found a seat near the corner and sat down. Unexpectedly, as soon as he sat down, several cats came to his side with light steps. A naughty gray tabby cat climbed directly from his back to the top of his head, as if declaring its sovereignty, and refused to leave the fisherman's hat.
“…”
Fujiwara Yuu never imagined he would be so popular with kittens. He didn't have any catnip on him, so why was he so attractive? He sat awkwardly on the sofa, not daring to move, for fear the tabby cat perched on his head would fall and get hurt.
Miyano Shiho, who had already arrived at the coffee shop, witnessed all this. A hint of hostility appeared in her eyes. It was not that she recognized this man as the agent who was lurking in the women's restroom to surround her, but she simply felt that the cute little cat's attention had been sucked away by the "stinky man".
When Miyano Shiho saw her sister waving at her, she took off her windbreaker and hung it on the back of the chair, while putting aside her usual coldness and speaking in a gentle tone:
[I recommend Yeguo Reading, which is really useful. Download it here. yeguoyuedu. Everyone can go and try it out.]
"Sister, I'm going to the bathroom to wash my hands. Please help me order some snacks that the cat likes."
"Okay, what kind of coffee would you like?"
“Iced Americano is fine.”
After hearing the conversation between the two, Fujiwara Yu immediately stood up and walked towards the restroom. He did take off the cats on his body, but the little ancestor on his head was biting his fisherman's hat and refused to let go. He had no choice but to walk into... the women's restroom with the cats on his head.
He was glad that cats could not speak human language, and he was also glad that cats would not speak out to report his crime of trespassing into the women's restroom.
But there is no cat license, but there is a human witness.
When Miyano Shiho pushed open the door of the women's restroom, she saw a man leaning against the sink with his arms folded across his chest with a very shameless face. The gray tabby cat on his fisherman's hat was also pulling at his black-rimmed glasses. He really had no dignity at all.
She withdrew her gaze and ignored the pervert who loved to enter the women's restroom without her name, and went to the farthest sink to wash her hands.
Unexpectedly, a grown man like him was ignored. Fujiwara Yu reached out and pulled the culprit who kept pulling at his glasses into his arms. He raised his eyebrows and looked at Miyano Shiho who was washing her hands, saying something with a hint of meaning:
"Can you really wash your hands clean?"
Miyano Shiho paused in her scrubbing, her expression growing even colder, clearly understanding the meaning behind his words. She slowly turned on the faucet, tilted her head to look at the unknown agent, and gave him a sarcastic sneer, speaking in a sly tone:
"Every time I see you, it's always in the women's restroom. It seems your taste is quite niche, huh?"
