Chapter 186 It's choking me to death!
"Uh..." Sonoko's smile suddenly froze, and she changed her expression, covering the back of her head with an embarrassed laugh, "No, no, nothing at all, hahaha..."
Bertrand blinked, still looking completely bewildered.
But soon, he turned his head to look at the man who had suddenly appeared and started chatting with Sonoko. He raised his eyebrows slightly, and a glint of light flashed in his eyes.
Then he looked at Chizuru and Conan, who were walking back this way after whispering to each other.
He floated up to Qianzhu, his cute baby face showing a hint of expectation, his wet eyes pleading, "Can I follow you guys?"
Qianzhu paused, glanced at him, and then looked at Conan, who looked wary.
Conan quietly stood in front of Chizuru, looking up at Kurosawa with a questioning expression, "What are you trying to do by following us?"
With his hands behind his back, head tilted to the side, and a naive expression on his face, Bertrand looked down at Conan, a smile on his face but his tone flat, "Because I only know you guys here now~ Otherwise, I'd be bored all by myself~"
After saying that, he looked up at Qianzhu, reached out and tugged at his clothes, shaking them gently, "Please~"
Qianzhu frowned slightly, about to speak, when she heard the man next to her who was flirting with Yuanzi say, "Actually, the one I really wanted to invite was you."
Sonoko: "Huh?"
Conan's attention was instantly drawn to it.
No way? Someone actually has feelings for Sonoko! There's definitely something fishy going on here!
Taking advantage of his distraction, Qianzhu sighed silently, while Bertrand tugged at his clothes and covered his mouth, secretly laughing.
"Alright, let's go."
Without waiting for Sonoko to respond, the man stepped forward, put his arm around her shoulder, and tried to lead her away.
Sonoko hesitated for a moment, but having the desire but not the courage, she decided to bring Ran and the others along.
So, they all sat down around the table.
Bertrand sipped his sparkling water, glancing at Qianzhu every now and then.
Conan, sitting opposite him, stared at him with a serious and sharp gaze.
As Masahiko Michiwaki flirted with Sonoko in a greasy manner, a dark-skinned man wearing glasses suddenly slammed a glass of beer on the table, but his tone was devoid of any emotion, "Your draft beer has been brought over."
"Cough cough cough... cough cough cough."
Two coughs suddenly came from the side.
The group turned to look and saw that Qianzhu and Heize were also coughing while covering their mouths.
"Oh, excuse me, could you please put out your cigarette?" Ran suddenly realized what was happening and quickly asked Masahiko Michiwaki to put out the cigarette he had already lit.
"Oh, I'm sorry." Masahiko Michiwaki quickly put the cigarette in the ashtray and stubbed it out.
Kurosawa wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes and coughed a few more times, "Cough...cough cough, I'm choking to death..."
He raised his hand and waved it in front of his nose, scrunching his face as if trying to get rid of the lingering smell of smoke.
"Qianzhu, are you alright?" Xiaolan raised her hand and touched Qianzhu's shoulder.
Qianzhu shook her head slightly. "It's nothing, cough... I'd better go get some fresh air first."
As he spoke, he got up and went outside.
Bertrand, who was standing next to him, also stood up. "I'll go with you."
Seeing this, Conan was about to stand up as well, but Chizu gave him a look, telling him to pay attention to the man sitting next to him.
Understanding his meaning, Conan sat back down, but his gaze followed the two of them with a hint of worry.
