Chapter 17441752 [Sister]
Ryuichi Kimura felt something was wrong and turned to look at his partner.
The young girl stared at the backstage, her expression changing from time to time, and no one knew what she was thinking. After a few seconds, she suddenly covered her mouth, and tears welled up in the corners of her eyes.
Kimura Ryuichi was shocked: "Why are you crying?!"
Shirai Yuri took out a handkerchief and buried her face in it: "Wow, I'm excited!"
Kimura Ryuichi: “?”
"It's Miss Yoko, she's even cuter than on TV!" Shirai Yuri looked regretful, "I was so focused on watching the detective that I didn't notice that the person wearing plain glasses behind me was Miss Yoko... I've been a fan of her for a long time! Damn it, I should have brought an autograph book with me."
Muraki Ryuichi didn't understand these star-chasing little girls: "...How can you rehearse with a notebook? I think they will be here for a long time, why don't you find a chance to go over and ask for their autographs?"
"But I didn't recognize her just now, which is really unqualified for a fan." Shirai Yuri looked eagerly at the direction where Jiang Xia and Kinoshita Yoko left, "I don't know if they will come to watch the official performance the day after tomorrow. I must show my best side in front of my idol!"
…
Backstage, the group of people were unaware of the conversation on the stage. Their attention was still on Ito Tamanosuke.
The change of Ito Tamonsuke before and after was too obvious. Conan pretended to be a child and asked curiously: "Ito brother, what is the 'script' that Muraki brother mentioned just now?"
He deliberately emphasized the word "script".
Jiang Xia looked at Ito Tamonsuke and saw that his new classmate's face changed again when he heard this. There seemed to be something else behind the incident.
Conan's gaze also changed suddenly.
Jiang Xia then asked casually, "Did you run into any trouble? Will you be too late to perform after revising it?"
Ito Tamonsuke shook his head: "It doesn't matter, everyone has a good command of lines, as long as the script is revised, the performance will go smoothly."
"So, there are still problems with the script?" Kinoshita Yoko couldn't help but speak. "I just heard from Jiang Xia that you will start the performance the day after tomorrow. Is it really possible to revise the script in less than two days? I do know a few screenwriters, if you need them..."
Ito Tamonsuke was a little absent-minded, but he still tried his best to smile and said, "It's really okay. Our theater troupe is different from TV movies. Not to mention two days in advance, it's not uncommon for us to change the script in the morning and perform in the afternoon. Just relax and don't be affected by my affairs."
As he was speaking, the door next to Jiang Xia suddenly creaked and was pushed open.
Jiang Xia turned around and saw that there was no one in the room.
He was stunned for a moment: Is it haunted?
Unfortunately, it soon turned out that he was overthinking.
——When he lowered his head slightly, he saw that there was no new ghost strong enough to push the door, but a cute little girl who was almost as tall as Conan.
The little girl is very tender and fresh, but when she speaks, her tone is a little mature, imitating that of an adult.
She obviously heard the conversation just now and sighed: "So why don't you perform the previous script? The response to that script was obviously good, but you insisted on changing it. Now the screenwriter is not cooperating, and the actors are also anxious. Sigh..."
Suzuki Sonoko was amused by the way she shook her head. She noticed that the child looked somewhat like Ito Tamonsuke: "Are you Ito-san's sister?"
Before Ito Tamonsuke could speak, the little girl looked up at them and said in a clear voice: "My name is Ito Hui, you can just call me Xiao Hui."
As she spoke, her eyes fell on Jiang Xia and she tilted her head in thought: "You are the famous high school detective, right? I heard my brother mention you. Are you his classmate?"
Jiang Xia nodded.
Ito Hui then extended his hand to him and shook it in a formal manner: "My useless brother must have caused you a lot of trouble. Thank you for bringing people here to increase our popularity. In exchange, if you have any problems in this troupe, you can always come to me at any time."
The disappointing elder brother's eyes jumped: "Xiao Hui..."
"Anyway!" Ito Hui held Jiang Xia's hand, turned to look at her brother, and accused him in a baby voice, "Because you suddenly and willfully wanted to change the script, it caused a lot of trouble to everyone in the crew. And you still dare to chat leisurely with your classmates? - Let me take care of these guests, and you hurry up and get your new script."
Ito Tamonsuke was pushed twice by her little hand and looked at Jiang Xia helplessly: "Then I'll leave first. Xiaohui is indeed very familiar with this place. If you want to see anything, just let her take you there. I'm really sorry, I'll entertain you all after I finish revising the script."
"It's okay." Jiang Xia, "I'm good at taking care of children, and the children like me very much, so you can go without worry."
Conan thought of the young detective team who ran away when they saw Jiang Xia: "..."
...You are just good at taking care of fake children!
Ito Hui also felt that there was something wrong with this sentence: "It was me who took care of you!"
"Almost, almost." Jiang Xia touched her head: She is so enthusiastic at such a young age, maybe she will be a good detective who is good at socializing when she grows up.
Seeing that they were getting along really well, Ito Tamonsuke nodded at them, then turned and left.
Jiang Xia was just about to see how the little girl next to him planned to take them on the tour.
At this moment, Ito Hui suddenly let go of his hand, ran two quick steps to the corner, and grabbed a child who was about to sneak away.
"Conan, what are you doing following my brother?"
As soon as Ito Kei looked up, he saw Conan following Ito Tamonsuke stealthily, as if he wanted to follow him.
She was very dissatisfied with this behavior: "Do you have any problem with my hospitality to guests?"
Conan was caught and came back in disgrace: "It's not me, I didn't..."
Mao Lilan was a little surprised. She didn't even notice that Conan was trying to run away. Fortunately, this clever little girl saw it, otherwise it would have caused a lot of trouble for the busy Ito Tamonsuke.
Suzuki Sonoko laughed heartily: "This brat always runs around everywhere relying on his short height and the fact that others can't see him. Now he meets someone of the same height as him, I wonder how he can run away."
Mao Lilan also laughed quietly.
Conan wiped his face silently: "..." This naughty kid is so annoying!
But soon, he noticed something and looked at Ito Hui in surprise: "I don't think I have introduced myself yet. I came here temporarily. Before coming here, I didn't even know your brother, so you must not have heard the name from him... Why did you call me 'Conan' just now, do you know me?"
