Chapter 737 Huiyuan Ai suddenly appears
Mao Lilan suddenly turned around. She had hit the iron rod straight again without knowing when.
The two male high school students who were whispering behind her were slightly startled, stopped talking at the same time, stood up and looked at her.
After all, Jiang Xia's level of guilt was much lower than that of the person involved - he was just a little infected by Conan's panic, and now he quickly came to his senses and his expression became natural again.
Although Conan was very panicked, he managed to get away with it by relying on his child appearance.
And now, after repairing the iron rod for a while, Mao Lilan has gradually calmed down - Kudo Shinichi has been missing for a long time, and to be honest, she is a little used to it.
…
In the distance, a tram was approaching, gradually slowing down, and was about to arrive at the station.
Mao Lilan plans to take a ride home.
When she left, she raised her hand to greet Conan, but found that Conan had no intention of going home with her. For some reason, he kept hiding behind Jiang Xia.
After a moment of confusion, Mao Lilan felt that she understood - maybe the child wanted to play outside for a while longer, or maybe Conan thought that riding Jiangxia's motorcycle back to Beika Town was cooler than taking the train home, so he didn't come over to join her.
Mao Lilan looked at the cute child and nodded to show her understanding: it was the weekend, and children love to play. And although Jiang Xia drove a little fast, he was safe all along and obeyed the law during the day, so there was no accident, so it was not a big problem.
Soon the tram arrived at the station.
She turned around and walked to the open door, then turned back and waved to the two people on the platform: "Then I'll go back first. If you guys go for a ride, be careful and don't speed."
Jiang Xia responded.
Mao Lilan got on the bus, and a few passengers got off.
Then the door closed and the tram drove away quickly.
Jiang Xia suddenly felt a burning gaze.
He lowered his head and found Conan staring at his hands next to him.
Jiang Xia was startled, looking at the box of chocolates in his hand, and then he remembered that Wakamatsu Toshihide had just snatched the chocolates and was frightened by Mao Lilan, so the chocolates slipped from his hands. Jiang Xia caught them.
At this moment, Conan was looking at the chocolate. He hesitated to speak, his eyes showing desire, but he was a little shy and didn't want to speak.
Jiang Xia handed it over in a friendly manner: "Here."
"Thank you!" Conan breathed a sigh of relief and raised his hand to take it. He felt that Jiang Xia's ability to observe, although occasionally causing frustration to his colleagues, was indeed an advantage most of the time.
He happily unpacked the package: "I'll invite you guys to go out and play together next time."
——Kudo-san is also very good at observation and can find out when Jiang Xia will be in a good mood.
The deal was done perfectly.
Both of them were very satisfied.
Just as I nodded secretly in my heart, at this moment, a crisp voice suddenly came from behind: "Hey."
Conan: “…” It sounds like a familiar voice.
...Graybara Ai?!
Conan was startled and turned around quickly, hiding the chocolate behind his back guiltily, and explained calmly: "Well, I didn't mean to cheat Xiaolan of her chocolate, it's just that this was definitely given to me, so it can't be considered cheating... and Jiang Xia already has a lot of chocolate..."
"..." Huihara Ai was startled, and then seemed to understand something, her eyes turned into disgust, "Oh. So you just cheated Miss Mori of her chocolate."
Conan: “…”
Wait, didn't Huihara Ai see the whole thing just now? Damn, she confessed... Just now, Xiaolan really frightened her a little bit, and it actually affected her judgment. He glanced at the iron pole on the side of the road with lingering fear.
Jiang Xia looked at Huibara Ai, somewhat puzzled as to why she suddenly came over.
In my impression, this fake elementary school student actually prefers to stay at home and do scientific research. He must have something to do when he suddenly went out, and he didn't tell Huiyuan Ai that he was coming here before. The two sides just met by chance, and this means...
Jiang Xia asked with great interest: "What happened?"
Huihara Ai withdrew her gaze from Conan and sighed: "The kids called me for help. I just got off the car and saw you here, so I came over to say hello."
——When the tram arrived at the station just now, she also got off.
Having just encountered a member of the organization at her doorstep last night, Huiyuan Ai was now more cautious in everything she did. Although she was not afraid to go out after receiving information about the man in black from Jiang Xia, she was still cautious and wore a hat to cover her distinctive hair. Her small figure blended in with the people getting off the bus and was not very conspicuous.
Jiang Xia nodded, "Children"...you mean the Junior Detective Team?
Come to think of it, I haven't seen them for a long time.
Jiang Xia's eyes lit up slightly when he thought of these children who were very susceptible to events.
Just as I was thinking about it, three children came running towards me at the corner of the street.
Kojima Genta, Tsuburaya Mitsuhiko and Yoshida Ayumi spotted Haibara Ai, who was about the same height as them, and said happily, "Little Ai! You're finally here..."
“…”
Halfway through the conversation, the three people's eyes fell on Jiang Xia.
Then he instinctively stopped, stopped talking, and froze in place.
Ayumi, Genta and Mitsuhiko have witnessed too many cases of Jiang Xia beating and committing crimes in the past, and sometimes they are suddenly frightened by Jiang Xia in other ways. Therefore, although Haibara Ai and Conan have repeatedly told them that "Jiang Xia should not beat children", these two mature "children" often have wandering eyes when they say these things, so the three children really can't believe the authenticity of this guarantee.
Moreover, children's intuition is sometimes very accurate - the three children always feel that every time Jiang Xia sees them, he seems to be secretly expecting something.
The three of them occasionally talked about these things after class, and gradually came up with some terrible guesses: Maybe Brother Jiang Xia was using a sting operation to enforce the law - he wouldn't beat good kids, but he never said how he would treat mischievous kids.
"..." At this moment, the three of them were sweating profusely under Jiang Xia's slightly shining eyes. They hesitated for a moment between "turning around and running" and "pretending to be good children and walking over."
Then he glanced at Jiang Xia's long legs, and then at the motorcycle next to Jiang Xia: "..."
Two seconds later, Ayumi Yoshida was the first to return to normal from her frozen state.
She approached slowly and greeted softly, "Hello, Brother Jiang Xia."
Kojima Genta and Tsuburaya Mitsuhiko were inspired and immediately repeated what they had done, even bowing cautiously like a parent meeting a client.
——No matter how you look at them, they look like three well-behaved and polite children.
"Hello." Jiang Xia looked at them, his voice gentle, with a hint of anticipation that made the three children shudder. "I felt that you were a little flustered just now, is there something wrong?"
