With his hands in his pockets, Kōyū stood in front of Ai, looking at the young man who was much taller than him.
"Heh, and who are you? Such a young hero saving a damsel in distress?"
The young man laughed in anger, looking down at the little boy who didn't take him seriously.
"I'm just someone passing by. To be honest, you can't beat me."
Guangyou smiled. If a fight really broke out, he wouldn't necessarily be at a disadvantage.
Besides, what era are we living in? Do we still need to take action?
The young man in front of him was not worth taking action against.
Guangyou simply shouted that someone was bullying a child.
It would be much better to let the police educate him. Besides, this man parked illegally; just let Yumi from the traffic department give him a lesson and that would be the end of it.
It's effortless, convenient, and makes a lasting impression on him—what a great method!
"I think you really want to get beaten up."
The young man clenched his fist, then relaxed it, then clenched it again, several times in total. Finally, the man gritted his teeth, turned around, and left.
As he left, he uttered a harsh remark.
"Remember, I'll let you off this time, but if I find this dead cat peeing in my car cover again, whether it's an old woman or a little brat like you, I'll beat you up without hesitation!"
Guangyou scoffed, "Please hit me."
To be honest, Guangyou has been itching to use his hands lately, and he used to go to the nearby karate dojo after school to vent his frustration.
If this person were to come up here and something were to happen, that wouldn't be the outcome Guangyou wants to see.
It's not arrogance, it's just confidence; experience speaks for itself.
At most, he might get into fights on the street, but he's still far from someone who's truly living a life-or-death situation.
After the young man left, the old woman picked up the cat and said affectionately, "Bruce, didn't I tell you not to go into that enclosure?"
"You really love playing pranks, Bruce."
Holding the cat, the old woman thanked Guangyou, saying, "It's a good thing you came this time, otherwise this old woman really wouldn't know what to do."
"It's alright, even if I don't come, I believe you should have a way to handle it, Grandma."
Guangyou scratched his head and said with an awkward smile.
To be honest, if that young man hadn't said that to Ai, he wouldn't have bothered coming out.
After hearing those words, Guangyou was furious.
Conan and Genta jogged over and asked, "Are you guys alright?"
Ayumi smiled and nodded: "Mm."
"You are all good kids too."
The old woman's smile seemed genuine, making it hard to feel any ill will towards her.
"Actually, I'm just really touched. Grandma, you didn't back down at all for the cat, that's really amazing!"
"Yes, to these cats, Grandma is probably like a god."
The old woman waved her hand and shook her head: "God? How could a despicable person like me be as great as a god? I can't even compare to these cats."
As they chatted, Mitsuhiko and Genta learned the whole story.
The old woman's name is Shizuka Omori. These cats are stray cats that people abandoned. She takes care of them and helps them find new owners.
The kittens were resting or eating cat food. Ai and Ayumi each held a kitten in their arms, their movements were very gentle, and the kittens seemed to be enjoying themselves.
"Humans are so selfish."
Looking at the cats in front of her, Shizuka Omori suddenly sighed.
Guangyou agreed with her. Indeed, many people nowadays are too selfish, doing many incomprehensible things for their own selfish desires.
This is a good thing. Genta, who only found out now, couldn't help but feel a little resentful: "Ayumi, you did something wrong. We are all partners in the Junior Detective Club. You can let us do this together!"
"The Junior Detective Club?"
It was clear that this was the first time Omori Shizuka had heard this name.
"It's our detective team, and we've solved many very difficult cases!"
Ayumi explained, stroking the cat.
"You guys can even solve cases? That's amazing!"
Omori Shizuka lowered her head slightly and praised him softly.
"Grandma, is something worrying you?"
Conan noticed that Omori Shizuka looked preoccupied and asked curiously.
"No, how could that be?"
Shizuka Omori seemed unwilling to tell the truth and changed the subject, saying, "Ayumi, could you keep this for me for a while?"
Ayumi took the cat food from Shizuka Omori and nodded, but still had some questions: "Sure, Grandma, what are you going to do?"
"Because I'm afraid I'll be arriving here a little later tomorrow."
"I've been having terrible nerve pain lately," Shizuka Omori said helplessly.
"Soaking in hot springs can help with neuralgia."
Mitsuhiko, holding the cat, gave Shizuka Omori a suggestion.
"Hot springs, I used to go back to Izu to soak in hot springs often."
A look of reminiscence crossed Omori Shizuka's face. "Every time I go, I always stay at the same hotel."
After explaining, she turned her head and smiled at Ayumi, saying, "I feel completely at ease leaving this matter to Ayumi."
Ayumi smiled, her cheeks slightly flushed; this feeling of trust made her feel wonderful.
After saying goodbye to Shizuka Omori, the group played soccer nearby for a while before heading home.
The arrival of the day off made Ayumi very happy. Before leaving, Ayumi and Genta and the others agreed that they would go to the park to take care of the kittens today.
On his hard-earned day off, Kōyū was woken up by Ai's incessant phone calls.
