Chapter 2414 2426 [Kudo Shinichi's Confession] Ask for monthly votes ()
"Actually..." Kudo Shinichi took a deep breath and prepared his words.
This observation restaurant that overlooks the entire rice flower is actually the place where his father, Kudo Yusaku, proposed to his wife. It was in this romantic way that Kudo abducted his young film queen wife.
Therefore, Kudo Shinichi always felt that this place was auspicious, maybe it was the lucky place of their Kudo family. And now that he was free, he might as well follow his father's footsteps and confess his feelings: to put it another way, whether he was accepted or rejected, at least with this matter in front of him, Xiaolan would definitely forget about the stage or Judy or not.
Thinking of this, looking at the pretty and lovely girl opposite, Kudo Shinichi's heart began to beat violently: "Actually, I..."
Mao Lilan looked at his shy look and sighed, "Why are you so hesitant? How come you become so hesitant after going out for a while? You just want to borrow my notes from this period of time, why don't you just say no? Would I not lend it to you?"
Kudo Shinichi only felt a bolt of lightning falling from the sky, cracking and shattering the pink bubbles around him. He was stunned and said, "Huh?"
Mao Lilan took the shoulder bag she was carrying and searched for a while. Then she took out a thick stack of photocopies from it: "I knew you were going to say this, so I had already made the photocopies."
Kudo Shinichi: “…” Who wants to say this!
Across from me, Mao Lilan flipped through the thick notes in her hand. Suddenly she remembered something and became curious: "You said Jiang Xia never attended classes and never borrowed notes from me. How did he always get full marks?"
After a pause, Mao Lilan suddenly realized: "Someone must have lent it to him secretly! - Every time Jiang Xia is not in school, there will be a lot of things stuffed in the desk hole. Since some people put love letters and handmade gifts, there must be smart people who will put some practical items like photocopies of notes. Hiss, the students are really creative..."
When Kudo Shinichi heard the name, he couldn't help but look at a nearby table: "..." Why did he suddenly mention Jiang Xia? He didn't know why, but he always had a bad feeling...
He was just about to change the subject to save the situation, but at this moment, footsteps were heard from outside the side door, and several figures ran past quickly.
Although those figures only appeared in his field of vision for a brief moment, Kudo Shinichi still relied on his keen observation to recognize the people at a glance - it was Inspector Megure.
Kudo Shinichi: “……?”
Why is Inspector Megure here? He doesn't look like the kind of person who has time to leisurely eat dinner... Wait, come to think of it, were there any unusual noises outside a few minutes ago?
If I remember correctly, it was a chaotic sound of footsteps and the sound of paper cannons... Hmm? Cannons? According to his experience, this kind of noise can easily be used as an excuse to mix in some illegal factors... Like a gunshot?
Just as I was thinking about it, suddenly, some guest happened to see the scene, and a terrified scream of "Ah--!!!" suddenly came from the corridor outside the door.
"?!" Mao Lilan was startled and looked up while holding the notebook. "What's that sound?"
Kudo Shinichi felt that his bad premonition had come true: "..." Damn it, the confession he hadn't even said yet... Why did a murder happen at this time!
...But if you think about it in a positive way, it may not be a murder case. Maybe a thief just sneaked in.
Thinking of this, Kudo Shinichi tried to keep smiling and answered Mao Lilan's question: "It seems like someone is screaming - probably a lady saw a cockroach and was scared."
The waiter passing by was stunned and quickly explained: "Sir, we don't have cockroaches here."
Kudo Shinichi tried hard to keep the date going: "That's a rat!"
Waiter: “?” Nonsense! Our place is very clean. The floor in the corner of the kitchen is polished to a shine. If an ant goes there, it will sprain its ankle!
Kudo Shinichi did not notice the lingering resentment from the workers, because at this moment, a strange guest in a suit and tie trotted in.
The stranger walked past them with a little excitement, stopped at the table behind them, and said to his friend sitting there: "Something happened, something big happened!"
The friend wiped his mouth in surprise and said, "What's the matter? Tell me slowly."
Kudo Shinichi answered in his heart: "..." Rat, it must be a super-sized mutant rat!
Strange guest: "I heard someone died in the elevator! And he seemed to be an important person. I heard several people gathered there and called him the president."
Kudo Shinichi: “…”
He took a deep breath, trying to maintain this fragile date, and said to Mao Lilan: "It's just 'heard'. It should be a rumor, like someone fell in the elevator, and then the rumor spread and became like this. Haha, the onlookers are always so impatient."
Just as he finished speaking, another person came running over excitedly and said to his friend, "Our president is dead! He was shot in the head and blood was all over the elevator. The police are already interviewing witnesses, but none of the suspects were there at the time. Don't you think this is weird?"
Kudo Shinichi couldn't help but roll up his sleeves when he heard this: "..." No one was present? Humph, someone must have used some strange method to forge an alibi, so that he could find the liar!
Just as he was about to stand up, he caught a glimpse of Mao Lilan across from him and was suddenly startled: "..."
Date, solve the case, date, solve the case...
The balance in Kudo Shinichi's mind instantly hit a ball. At this moment, he looked up and found that Jiang Xia and Huiyuan Ai had obviously noticed the commotion not far away. The two were obviously curious about the case, and decisively dropped their meals and went to the stairwell together.
Kudo Shinichi: "..." That's right, just hand the case over to Jiang Xia, Jiang Xia will definitely be able to solve the case quickly...
But he also wants to solve the case!
I was helpless because I was a child before, and now that I have finally changed, I can only wander on the edge of the case and cannot openly express my reasoning...
Shinichi Kudo felt heartbroken when he thought about a strange crime happening nearby while he could only watch.
"Go if you want to." At this time, a voice floated over from the other side. Mao Lilan picked up a piece of pudding with a fork and said speechlessly, "Your eyes are almost glued to the scene - anyway, I have nothing tonight, so it doesn't matter if I wait a little longer."
"Xiaolan..." Kudo Shinichi was touched, "Then I'll go quickly and come back soon!"
The high school detective belatedly discovered the option of "mature adults can have it all." He stood up and trotted towards the source of the chaos.
