Chapter 430 Those are people from the church.
Seeing that everyone except Kuno Naya was looking at him with confusion and shock, Chizuru also looked at them with a puzzled expression and asked, "What's wrong?"
Kuno Naya chuckled softly, holding a fan in the same color as her yukata, which she unfolded to partially cover her face. "They're probably referring to romantic feelings between men and women, right?"
"Hmm?" Qianzhu was slightly confused, then a look of surprise flashed across her eyes after she realized what she meant. "Is that so? I'm really sorry."
"Huh—!?"
Everyone was shocked.JPG
"So, Chizuru, the kind of 'like' you're talking about isn't that kind of thing?" Sonoko scratched her head in distress, looking utterly disappointed.
Conan, relieved, glanced speechlessly at the disappointed Sonoko. "Hey, what are you planning to do looking like that?!"
Xiaolan was also surprised for a moment, but then she relaxed completely.
It's precisely because I'm so familiar with this situation that I don't know what to do...
"I'm so sorry," Qianzhu said with a slightly embarrassed smile. "Did I cause you to misunderstand?"
He doesn't understand this kind of feeling at all.
"Ah! No, no! No!" Sonoko quickly waved her hand, her smile somewhat embarrassed.
She really should have asked first!
"Wow! So if that's the case, does Chizuru-nii also like Ayumi and Conan?" Ayumi thought for a moment, then looked at him expectantly.
Qianzhu smiled and nodded, gently patting her head. "Of course."
Conan, standing next to Ran, inexplicably breathed a sigh of relief, then scratched his cheek with a slightly flushed face.
It's definitely best to ask questions first when you encounter this situation.
"Alright, alright, let's all go shopping together!"
Sonoko quickly forgot her embarrassment and invited them to stroll around the street of stalls together.
They strolled around, chatting and laughing.
"By the way, speaking of which, my mom and I encountered some rather strange people on our way here," Ayumi said to Conan and the other two beside her, swallowing her food and thinking for a moment.
"What kind of strange person is he?" Genta asked, not too curiously, while eating takoyaki.
"Hmm... that's right, they were all wearing white clothes, and they didn't look like they were here to visit a summer festival at all, but more like they were looking for something," Ayumi said after thinking for a moment.
Conan doesn't react as strongly to white clothes as he does to black clothes, so he only briefly thought about Ayumi's words.
But the next second, Ayumi suddenly pointed ahead, "Ah, it's right there!"
Conan looked up and his pupils immediately contracted.
A person dressed in a white and gold monk's robe was walking forward with his back to them. His attire, which was out of place at the summer festival, attracted the attention of many people.
He seemed to sense Conan's gaze, which was more intense than anyone else's, and stopped in his tracks, turning back to look.
His face was obscured by the large hat, which covered most of it; only his lips were vaguely visible.
Those are... people from the church!
Conan has this strong feeling.
He instinctively tried to follow that person, but then he heard Xiaolan and the others exclaim in alarm behind him, "Qianzhu! Are you alright?"
Conan suddenly turned around and saw that Qianzhu, whom they were supporting, was clutching her chest and looked like she was having difficulty breathing.
"Mr. Mori!" A familiar voice came from behind them.
Kogoro Mouri turned around, a look of surprise on his face. "Mr. Yanagi?"
