Daily Spy Life in the Detective Conan World

Chapter 49 Walking by Yourself

Beika-cho 5-chome.

Not far from Poirot Cafe.

Xia Chuan and Anya both looked in the direction the dog's paws were pointing.

At 9 p.m., there weren't many people walking on the streets in the residential area; if there were, they were mostly walking their dogs.

In the direction Bond pointed, there was a man walking a wolfhound.

"Bond, have you taken a fancy to that wolfhound?" Xia Chuan stroked his chin, wondering if spring had arrived.

From Xia Chuan's perspective, there was nothing but the people and dogs in front of him. So, if I'm not mistaken, it must be springtime for Bond. Or perhaps he's been lonely for too long and wants to find a playmate.

"Wang?"

Bond tilted his head, stuck out his tongue, and looked at Xia Chuan with wide eyes, puzzled.

Anya, however, kept her eyes glued to that direction.

Just now, she heard Bond's inner thoughts; Bond had a premonition that someone resembling his mother was about to appear.

Anya looked on with longing eyes for a long time.

Finally, a woman emerged from the corner at the end of the road.

She wore a light pink coat that covered her entire body, leaving half of her calves exposed. Black stockings made her exposed calves look extremely alluring, and she wore a pair of light pink leather shoes that matched the color of the coat perfectly.

Her black hair cascaded down her shoulders, swaying from side to side as she walked, along with the cone-shaped pendant.

His eyes were staring blankly at the ground, as if he was thinking about something.

Suddenly, Joel felt a gust of wind blow past him, his hair fluttering and his sideburns flipping.

someone!

The assassin's alertness made her instantly take two steps back, dodging the lunging figure.

In the instant I looked up, a white afterimage had already swept past.

It looks like a dog, a white dog.

Oh, there's a child hanging up there.

With her good memory, she quickly recalled that she had seen the child and dog before; at Poirot's Café, the child and dog had watched her and Yuri from outside the window for a while.

Zizzi~
Bond's lunge failed, and as he landed, his claws were exposed, gripping the ground tightly to resist the momentum.

Anya was casually tossed aside by Bond and landed steadily on his back.

"Are you guys okay?"

Joel glanced at Anya with some concern.

Are kids these days really that fierce?

Are they too young to ride motorcycles, so they're causing trouble for large dogs?

"Ania is fine. Auntie, would you like to walk Bond with me?"

Anya blinked her big, innocent eyes and handed the mopping rope to Joel.

"."

"It's good that you're alright." Joel breathed a sigh of relief, glanced at the rope, and felt a little embarrassed. "No, no need."

Xia Chuan came rushing from afar.

Bond was so fast just now, he didn't even have time to react.

"Are you alright, Anya?" Xia Chuan was a little angry. He glared at Bond and hugged Anya.

"Prosperity"

Bond felt very wronged.

Why do I give you that look when I help you find a partner? You don't appreciate my kindness.

Anya gave Bond a reassuring look, indicating that the dog food would be doubled tomorrow.

Bond: Oh, that's all right now.

"Ania is fine. Anya wants to invite Auntie to walk Bond together."

As she spoke, she reached out again, offering one end of the leash.

"I'm sorry, Anya isn't usually like this," Xia Chuan said, feeling a little embarrassed, and quickly apologized.

He had seen this woman a few times; she was the beautiful woman he had seen at Poirot's Cafe.

I think I went to Poirot Cafe again today, but it's a bit strange to go so late.

"It's alright, Anya is very cute." Joel shook his head, revealing a charming smile. The evening breeze blew, causing his long, flowing hair and light pink coat to flutter, creating a particularly beautiful scene.

"Thank you, you are beautiful too."

Xia Chuan held Anya in one arm, squatted down, and used the other hand to scoop Bond up, afraid that it would launch another wild charge.

"Auntie, I want a hug." Anya smiled innocently, her pale green eyes sparkling like precious jewels.

If the dog-walking plan fails, then Anya will do it herself; she has enough confidence in herself.

Her short arms could only extend less than thirty centimeters before she could go no further. However, she did not give up. She twisted her body and broke free from Xia Chuan's embrace a little, leaning her upper body forward completely, and her fingers finally touched the hem of Joel's clothes.

"Uh, sorry, I..." Xia Chuan said somewhat embarrassedly, offering an awkward yet polite smile. "It's alright." Joel's smile remained unchanged; she also quite liked this cute little girl.

With her pink hair and light green eyes, she looks like a Barbie doll. Her ethereal voice is captivating, and her outstretched little hands are fair and tender, making her incredibly endearing.

And Anya's voice made 27-year-old Joel feel an urge to have a child right away.

Looking at Anya, Joel seemed to think of Yuri when he was a child.

Yuri was adorable as a child too.

Joel gently embraced Anya, stroking her hair softly. His tender expression made Anya reluctant to leave his warm embrace.

This aunt was destined to be my mother.

Is that right?
Anya looked down at Bond.

"Wang!"

Anya was overjoyed to receive Bond's affirmation and couldn't help but nuzzle against Joel's chest.

"Luckily it's a girl, otherwise..."

Xia Chuan couldn't help but think of Momonosuke, that disgusting Mediterranean guy.

"What's wrong?" Joel heard Xia Chuan mutter something, but he didn't catch what she said.

“No, it’s alright,” Xia Chuan said with a smile. “Excuse me for being so bold, but may I ask your name?”

Anya's behavior seemed to indicate something; he had originally intended to find a mother for the other person, and now, it seemed that something was amiss.

However, when Xia Chuan thought about his identity, he couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive, so he felt conflicted.

However, Anya had already set the mood so high that it would be impolite not to say something.

Xia Chuan smiled as usual, a calm and serene smile on his face, as elegant as a gentleman.

"Jor, Joel Blair."

"Just call me Xia Chuan."

"Yoel Blair," Xia Chuan pondered for a moment, then asked with some curiosity, "Isn't Miss Yoel Japanese?"

Joel's appearance and hair color are predominantly Eastern; if you didn't know her name, Xia Chuan would only think she was a native Japanese.

"My mother is Japanese, and my father is American."

"I see." Xia Chuan nodded with a smile.

"Father, Anya wants some cocoa."

Anya was somewhat disappointed in her father. How could he let Aunt Joel stand there? It was so cold outside.

If we can't keep Bond, let's go get some cocoa.

As for Bond
"Bond, you've grown up. You need to learn to walk on your own."

Anya tossed the leash onto Bond's back and waved her hand, indicating that it would be much easier for him to relieve himself.

"Wang?"

"Don't worry, there are definitely no dog thieves in Beika Town. It's full of burglars who break into houses."

"Prosperity"

“Bond, I advise you not to be ungrateful!” Anya stared at Bond with a serious face for several seconds.

"Woof—"

Bond shook his head in frustration, but he clearly couldn't resist Anya's insistence, so he picked up the leash and walked off on his own, looking back every few steps.

Watching Bond walk away alone, Anya thought for a moment and called out, "Remember to find a secluded spot, and make sure to cover it up when you're done."

I'm not a cat.
Bond didn't turn around, and his speed increased considerably.

"Ania is so cute, she can even talk to dogs." Joel smoothed his sideburns, looking quite surprised at the scene.

Xia Chuan crossed his arms and remained silent. "Is Anya always like this when she walks the dog?"

Several times Anya has been walking the dog by herself. Could it be that she went off to play by herself and then left Bond to walk her?

It seems this isn't the first time; he's quite adept at it. It's a sad story for Bond.

Looks like I'll have to give Bond a good meal when we get back, otherwise this pushover might just run away on his own sometime during a walk.

“Let’s go to Poirot Cafe for a coffee. I met Miss Joel there before, so she must be a regular customer, right?” Xia Chuan chatted casually.

“Yes, sometimes I’ll have a drink after a walk,” Joel replied shyly.

Actually, I had made an appointment with Yuri today, but it looks like Yuri hasn't arrived yet. Having a drink with Mr. Natsukawa wouldn't be a bad idea, since Anya is so cute, and she'd like to get closer to her.

"Auntie, was the uncle you were with before your boyfriend?" Anya remembered very clearly that Aunt Joel had a male companion at the Poirot Cafe that day.

But it doesn't matter, as long as you keep wielding the hoe, the foundation of the wall will eventually be dug down.

However, it's important to find out more beforehand, as this will be helpful for the next steps.

At this point, Anya demonstrated an extraordinary ability to plan, her thoughts becoming crystal clear.

If Conan saw this, he would definitely gape. This couldn't possibly be Anya; this isn't the Anya he knows. The real Anya is clearly a goofy girl with a touch of genuine stupidity.
