Chapter 1100 True Widow
"Who is that person?"
When everyone left the school, Xiaolan suddenly saw a person standing at the door of the Kendo Club. She stopped and asked in confusion.
When Fujino heard the sound, he looked and saw a man with long hair wearing a knitted hat and holding a wooden sword in his hand.
Xiaolan was curious and asked Fujino, the only member of the Kendo Club at the scene, "Is that the senior of the Kendo Club?"
"I'm not so sure either."
Fujino shook his head slightly. "I only go to the Kendo Club during competitions. I don't have much contact with the Kendo Club at other times. Even if they are seniors in the Kendo Club, I can't recognize them."
"right……"
Xiaolan nodded when she heard this, and after thinking about it carefully, it seemed that Senior Fujino rarely went to the Kendo Club. If there was anyone who had any connection with the Kendo Club, it was through junior Aoyama Motoko.
"Brother, you are here!"
At this time, Aoyama Motoko came out of the gymnasium used by the Kendo Club for training, carrying her schoolbag, and walked towards Fujino.
"I'm planning to go home, can I give you a ride?"
"Okay!"
Aoyama Motoko agreed with a smile, and then Fujino brought up the main topic: "Do you know the man wearing a knitted hat?"
"You mean that uncle..."
Aoyama Motoko raised her eyes and thought for a moment: "I don't know him either. He has been watching our Kendo Club's training since a while ago. I asked him and he said he was a senior in the Kendo Club. His name seemed to be Nagai Shuhei. This person is indeed on the roster.
"Okay, Xiaolan, stop looking at other men!"
At this time, Yuanzi waved at Xiaolan and said, "The most important thing for us now is the love letter!"
Xiaolan showed a helpless expression: "I don't know what to do about the love letter..."
"love letter?"
Aoyama Motoko's eyes sparkled, and she asked curiously, "Has anyone received a love letter?"
"Yeah yeah!"
Sonoko nodded and said, "It's Xiaolan, and it's her first time!"
"red beans?"
"red beans!"
The two smiled at each other, and confirmed through eye contact that they were the same person.
Xiaolan's cheeks turned red, and she said coquettishly, "Yuanzi!"
"Okay!"
Yuanzi smiled and waved her hands: "There is no need to think about this matter. If you want to accept it, just go ahead. If you don't want to accept it, just refuse it!"
"Of course, if you want to kick that reasoning geek Kudo Shinichi, I will support you unconditionally!"
Xiaolan sighed: "It's not that simple."
Seeing Xiaolan at a loss and looking embarrassed.
Yuanzi was puzzled at first, then suddenly realized: "Oh, come to think of it, this is your first time receiving a love letter. You really have no experience in dealing with such things."
"In that case... I'll do it for you then!"
Yuanzi smiled and took over Xiaolan's work: "I will definitely help you give him an unforgettable rejection!"
"Of course, it's not too late for you to kick that Kudo guy out now!"
As soon as Sonoko finished her words, Conan and Haibara Ai came running over panting.
He happened to hear this sentence, and his face immediately turned green.
It was as if a Western-style cowardly BGM sounded around me, and a clown mask was put on.
This guy Yuanzi actually dared to seduce Xiaolan when I was away!
This gossip!
Conan cursed in his heart.
Then he shouted at the top of his voice: "No! No way!"
"What's not working?"
Sonoko turned around and saw the little kid from Xiaolan's family, and was immediately speechless.
Why is this brat everywhere?
"Of course I can't let Xiaolan kick me away...my dear Shinichi brother!"
Conan was in a hurry and was halfway through his words when he suddenly realized that his vest had fallen off. He forced himself to change his words and picked up the vest that had fallen on the ground.
"Huh? What do you mean by kicking out that cocky reasoning geek?"
Hearing this, Yuanzi tilted his head and looked puzzled.
Fujino then explained: "Ran received a love letter, but this was her first time receiving one, so she didn't know how to deal with it, so Sonoko wanted to help reject the other party, and that's what happened."
"is that so?"
Conan's eyelids twitched.
Is it me who misunderstood?
“So I said it!”
Hearing this, Sonoko crossed her arms indignantly and complained, "What good is that cocky reasoning geek Kudo? If it weren't for the fact that he always treated Xiaolan like a matter of course, and didn't even write a love letter to Xiaolan, and Xiaolan didn't know what to do with the love letter, so I'd ask him to do it?"
"Is there any girl who hasn't received a love letter nowadays?"
"A girl like Xiaolan should have countless suitors!"
"Really? She's still in her prime, but she's been trapped by that cocky mystery geek and turned into a shrew."
"By the way, you, a cocky mystery geek's henchman, should also be counted as one!"
"All right, Sonoko."
Sonoko kept chattering, pointing the finger at Conan, while Xiaolan smiled helplessly and held onto her best friend, saying that she was afraid that this crazy woman would scare the child and cause him to suffer psychological trauma.
"..."
Conan was silent for a while after hearing this, unable to refute.
After all, I was the one who was in the wrong and ran into someone else's trap.
No matter what others say, you have to bear it...
And what Yuanzi said seemed to make some sense?
Should I also write a love letter to Xiaolan?
At this time, Hondou Eisuke was observing the child who suddenly ran over... and there was a little girl?
He was puzzled for a moment and asked the three people: "Excuse me, who are these two children?"
"Hey, why is there still someone standing here?"
"Huh? I don't think I noticed that either."
"Who is this person? Why haven't I seen him before?"
Conan, Haibara Ai, and Aoyama Motoko all looked at him with puzzled expressions.
Even Haibara Ai seemed not to notice the living person standing next to her.
Hondou Eisuke: “…”
Hey, hey, hey, it’s not that serious, right?
This is not some transparent world, is your reaction really that serious?
Why is my sense of existence so low?
Aoyama Motoko is a polite and good kid. After hearing the other person's name, she politely introduced herself: "My name is Aoyama Motoko, and I'm in Class A, Grade 1."
Xiaolan also introduced Conan to him: "This is Edogawa Conan who is staying at our house."
"This is my little sister, Huibara Ai."
Fujino's introduction was shorter, but direct and clear.
Conan felt sour after hearing this. Why did I add "staying here" before "our house"?
Why don't you just say that our Edogawa Conan is not good?
Xiaolan then began to introduce him: "This is Hondou Eisuke, a student who just transferred to our class today."
"So it's my brother..."
Conan naturally put on the identity of an elementary school student and greeted Hondou Eisuke.
At the same time, he narrowed his eyes slightly, feeling as if he had seen this person somewhere before.
This face, these cat-like eyes...
Looks like Rena Mizunoshi?
…………
"Something seems to have happened over there..."
“The police are here.”
"That person seems to be the former president of our school's Kendo Club..."
Fujino was driving a car, sending a large group of people home. Just as he was turning a corner, he suddenly saw a young woman with a baby in front of a house, talking to a policeman about something.
Fujino just moved his gaze away.
A clear and pleasant system prompt sounded in my ears:
"A new system task has been detected, please check it carefully!"
"Hmm? Did these two trigger the system task?"
Fujino was stunned when he heard this, and suddenly felt that the dog system was a little inhuman.
A light screen quickly appeared in front of him, showing:
[System Task: Strange Phenomena in the Widow's House
Mission Summary: Strange things happened in the home of a young widow. Is it the distortion of human nature or the decline of morality?
As a detective, it is my duty to serve the widow!
Mission objective: Find out the truth of the mystery in the widow's home
Mission Reward: 1000 million yen, 1000 detective reputation, 10 detective coins]
Fujino: "..."
Although the Dogecoin system is described very seriously, why does it feel a bit unserious?
But what about the widow...
So, her husband died?
Why does the Dogecoin system mention this?
Fujino complained in his heart, and stopped the car next to the widow described by the system. "Excuse me, what happened?"
"Hey, are you Fujino-kun?"
The widow obviously knew Fujino and recognized his identity at a glance.
This attracted the attention of several other people in the car.
It made his scalp tingle!
The widow obviously noticed something and smiled, then continued to explain: "You should all be students of Teitan High School. After all, we are alumni. How could I not know Fujino-kun?"
"So this is ah……"
Several people couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Fujino: "..."
So why are you so nervous?
What are you thinking in those little heads of yours?
While Fujino was complaining, Conan picked up his previous question again and asked the widow, "So, sister, why did the police come to your house?"
"Well..."
The widow thought for a moment and said hesitantly, "Actually, I seem to have encountered a thief who broke into my house. Although nothing was stolen, we are an orphan and a widow after all. It would be troublesome if we were in danger because of this incident, so I called the police, but the police didn't want to deal with such things..."
"Orphans and widows?"
At this time, Xiaolan looked at the widow, and then looked at the little boy next to her, her little eyes full of confusion.
Just like that, the widow invited everyone to her home and introduced them to each other.
Miss Widow is a real widow.
Not a fake widow like Xiaolan, but a real widow.
The kind where her husband is literally dead.
About a year ago, the widow Yuriko Toono's husband, Mr. Toono, was admitted to the hospital due to cancer. He died half a year ago due to the spread of cancer, leaving behind only a child by her side.
In Neon, it is very hard for a widow to take care of children. They are too busy to handle the whole day.
When she took her child out at one o'clock in the afternoon, she accidentally forgot to lock the window, and then of course the door was broken into by the excellent rice flower crowd of the rice flower stage.
Although they didn't have anything valuable in their house and the rent she withdrew from the bank in the morning was miraculously not lost, it was strange that the money had been taken out, leaving creases on the new bills. At the same time, the diary she used for daily records also showed signs of being flipped through, and there was even a stick of incense burned in front of her husband's Buddhist shrine.
This made her very confused and a little scared.
Compared to being stolen, it is more terrifying to have someone break into your home for no reason and do something strange secretly.
Fortunately, there is nothing private in the diary.
A diary is just an outlet for venting one's emotions and complaining to oneself.
I even write it down in the hope that someone else will see it one day.
—— Chang Kai-shen thought it was great (
Xiaolan felt sad when she heard this, and asked reluctantly, "Ms. Yuriko, it must be very hard for you to live alone and take care of a child, right?"
"It's really hard... In fact, I once thought about committing suicide, but when I thought of this child and my husband's last words, I gave up the idea of suicide..."
Toono Yuriko looked at Xiaolan, as if she had rarely found someone she could talk to, and she spoke out all the words that had been pent up in her heart in one breath.
The tender-hearted little girl burst into tears when she heard the story of the widow raising her baby.
Even Hondou Eisuke couldn't help but think of his sister.
Fujino, Conan, and Haibara Ai didn't feel anything about it.
Fujino is not a child anymore. He has seen too many things in his previous life, such as eating popsicles, driving trains, drinking milk tea, four-wheel alignment, and even more outrageous things after driving trains...
Haibara Ai is a simple and rational person. Although she can relate to this kind of thing, she will never show it.
As for Conan, he was simply thinking about the case without taking in the details of the story. He was just thinking about the case and collecting evidence from a third-party perspective.
When he came to his senses, he saw that several people looked confused.
He was a little confused. Why did these people suddenly start crying?
Why don’t I feel anything?
However, he didn't care about these little things.
He then mentioned a case that he remembered: "By the way, Sister Yuriko's situation seems to have happened a while ago!"
"The thief ran into someone's house but didn't steal anything. He just left. It was not until later that we found out that the family he broke into belonged to a teacher who took good care of him when he was a child. After knowing it was the teacher's house, he changed his mind."
"There is such a thing?"
Xiaolan was surprised when she heard this. She wiped her tears first, then touched her chin, and turned into the famous detective Xiaolan, thinking: "If that's the case, then Miss Yuriko's situation must be the same as that teacher!"
"If Miss Yuriko is a very special person to that person, and she happens to see the difficult life in the diary, she will definitely give up the idea of stealing!"
The famous detective Sonoko at the side took over the conversation: "I think that's it! That's why that person walked around the house and left without stealing anything!"
"Mmmmmmm!"
Conan nodded, very satisfied with this reasoning.
It's just a small case, it can be easily solved with just a little help from me!
Fujino: "..."
I haven't even sent out the system rewards yet, have you solved the trade issue?
