Daily Spy Life in the Detective Conan World

Chapter 39 Joel and Yuri

Café Poirot.

Because the male waiter was a part-time employee, he went back to school an hour early, leaving Xia Benzi alone in the store.

Fortunately, there were hardly any customers at this time, and now that it's almost closing time, only the two of them are left.

Miss Joel and Mr. Yuri are siblings, and they are also regular customers of the shop.

However, it is quite rare to visit a coffee shop for two consecutive days, as was the case this time.

They used to come once or twice a month.

"Miss Joel, Mr. Yuri, the café is closing soon~"

Xia Benzi gave a reminder.

"Okay, got it."

Yuri raised his hand and said, finishing his coffee in one gulp, "So, sister, what's your decision?"

"But why? You work at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and I'm a tactical combat instructor at the Metropolitan Police Department. We're both civil servants, isn't that great? Why do you insist on moving me abroad?"

Joel was very puzzled, his face full of inquiry.

Moreover, she didn't want to leave Japan, the country where her parents last stayed before they passed away, and she wanted to live there forever.

Yuri opened his mouth, unsure how to explain.

He changed jobs!

He is no longer an official of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

To be precise, after becoming a civil servant, he only worked in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs for one year before transferring to the Public Safety Commission, which is the National Police Agency.

Commonly known as the Neon Police.

Because he was afraid of worrying his sister, he never told her about his real profession, so even now, Joel still thinks he is an official in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

The profession of Japanese police is relatively dangerous, and family members are more likely to face retaliation than the families of ordinary police officers, so Yuri has always wanted to send his sister abroad.

Even knowing that his sister was a skilled fighter, Yuri still feared that one day he would hear devastating news, even though they lived in an era of modern weaponry.

“The work of a tactical combat instructor is too tiring, and my sister is not young anymore; it’s time.”

Before he could finish speaking, Joel was already getting impatient.

She sullenly drank the last sip of cocoa and squeezed the cup tightly.

blah blah-

A perfectly nice white ceramic coffee cup quickly transforms into a crackled ice-cracked cup, which actually looks rather artistic.

Hey Hey hey!
sister
Cold sweat dripped down Yuri's forehead. "Sister, are you angry?"
But he didn't seem to say anything.

Clearly, he hadn't realized the seriousness of the situation.

"Me! Am I that old?" Joel stared intently at his younger brother with his rosy eyes, the veins on the back of his fair and smooth hands visibly visible.

"No, no, it's not that. My sister is young and lovely." Yuri quickly waved his hand. "I just think it's time for my sister to find me a brother-in-law. I know several foreign friends, and they..."

Yuri was interrupted by his sister's gaze before he could finish speaking. After hesitating for a moment, he continued, "If you don't like it, that's fine. You raised me before, and now that I'm earning money, I, as your younger brother, will take care of you!"

Yuri suddenly felt a surge of excitement. Without realizing it, he had one foot on a chair and the other on a table, his right fist clenched upwards, his head held high, and a flash of light appeared behind him.

It's as if raising one's own sister is some great undertaking.

"Mr. Yuri!"

Xia Benzi rubbed her forehead, somewhat helpless. What was she doing standing on the table? Although she would have to wipe the table later anyway.

"Feel sorry!"

Joel picked up his younger brother and pressed him to the ground, then bowed at a ninety-degree angle.

"No, are you okay?"

Seeing blood trickling from the corner of Yuri's mouth as he was pinned to the ground, Xia Benzi was startled.

"It's alright." Joel glanced at his younger brother, indicating that his brother was tough and wouldn't be a problem.

"Okay, okay, but we're closed." Xia Benzi looked up and pointed to the time. "I'm very sorry."

"No, we are the ones who should apologize."

After paying, Joel pulled Yuri away in a hurry; his younger brother's behavior today was truly embarrassing.

After watching the two leave, Xia Benzi sighed and wiped away the shoe prints on the table and chairs.

What a strange pair of siblings.

Wow, this cup is so pretty!
"Hey! Sister, it's okay now, I can walk by myself."

After being dragged by the back of his collar for a long distance, Yuri spoke helplessly, reaching out to pull his collar to cover his face.

Many passersby turned around and glanced at him several times.

That's so embarrassing!

"Ah."

boom!
Yuri landed.

He patted his bottom as if it were a habit and stood up.

The two were standing at a crossroads. They did not live together, and according to the route, one went left and the other went right.

"Go back, work hard, and don't mention going abroad again."

After saying that, Joel walked straight to the left.

It's time.
Yes, she's already twenty-seven, not old, but not young either.

But after becoming an assassin, dating and marriage seemed a long way off for her.

She didn't even dare to live with her own younger brother.

First, she was afraid her younger brother would discover her hidden identity as an assassin; second, she was afraid that one day, when she was retaliated against, she would hurt her younger brother.

I wonder what Yuri would think if he knew that his early tuition fees were earned by his assassin sister through murder.

They'll drift apart, won't they?

Although she investigates all the missions she accepts beforehand to make sure the people she doesn't work with are bad people.

But this is not ancient times; the law is the maintainer of social order, not her killer.

"If you find a boyfriend, you must bring him to meet me so I can check him out."

Yuri had to give up on going abroad, but she still couldn't get over her boyfriend.

If I find a boyfriend, I will definitely expose all his secrets. There can't be the slightest problem. If he's not a good person, I absolutely can't let him ruin my sister's life!
Although he says he wants his sister to find a brother-in-law, Yuri is actually a bit of a sister-complex guy deep down, he just doesn't want to admit it.

Well, let's do it.

Anyway, as a police officer, he has a great deal of authority, and investigating one person is not a difficult task.

We'll have Kazami Yuya investigate then. Anyway, Furuya has been sent to another country by the infiltrating Black Organization and isn't in Japan for the time being, so using his people shouldn't be a problem.

There was no reply; Joel had already disappeared at the end of the road.

Sister, you're as amazing as ever!

Yuri rubbed his cheek; it hurt.

Fortunately, he had grown up like this since he was a child, and his physical condition had completely adapted to his sister's pace.

Xia Chuan's home.

"Father, Anya has gone to bed."

Anya rode Bond into her room.

Anya jumped off Bond's back as soon as she entered the room, quickly locked the door, and covered herself and Bond with the blanket.

In the pitch-black blankets, Bond skillfully curled up into a ball, like a beanbag chair, while Anya leaned back on it.

After making sure no one was eavesdropping, she cautiously asked, "Bond, is she Mother?"

Her tone was somewhat excited, clearly filled with curiosity about this person who might be her mother.

Today is the full moon, and her abilities are temporarily disabled, so she can only guess and cannot read Bond's thoughts.

However, based on her understanding of Bond, she knew that he wouldn't normally go out by himself late at night; he must have something important to do.

"Woof~"

Bond licked Anya's little hand, blinking his eyes.

"I don't understand. How about I teach you to speak like a human?" Anya said seriously.

"Wang?"

"Forget it. School is tiring enough as it is. If I have to teach Bond, I won't have any free time. I'm going to become the leader of the Junior Detective League!"

The little girl fantasized about becoming the leader of the Junior Detective Club and being the center of attention at school, and drool couldn't help but drip from the corner of her mouth.
